When we arrived at the place, there was a large pavement in front, and a room with a large stove in the back.

"It's just that the stove is a bit bigger, but it saves you from having to find someone else to make it. It should be enough for cooking on weekdays." The woman said with a smile.

Jiang Miao thought it was okay, so she asked directly, "How much money a year?"

Naturally, the price of the house is different from the price negotiated before.

The woman thought for a while and said: "Little lady, let's add ten taels of silver, and I won't bid too much."

"What's wrong with this room?" Jiang Miao didn't rush to be happy, but felt the clues.

There are more houses and yards, at least 20 taels. This woman does not say that there is obviously a problem with the high price.

"There is nothing wrong with this house, but the title deed is not with me now. With my nephew, he asked me to rent out the shop, and I may come back in a few days."

"I'm just afraid that if you don't want it, little lady, wouldn't this be a waste of time?" The woman quickly explained.

Naturally, he couldn't rent without the title deed, but Jiang Miao was very satisfied with the shop and the house.

"Auntie, when will your nephew come back? I'll come to see you when the time comes." She asked softly, "It's not easy to rent this shop out now. Since I came to see it, I really want to rent it out, but the title deed must be in place. It's good."

This house has been looking deserted for a long time, otherwise the other party would not have kept it at a low price.

"Three days later, big sister, you must come to me when the time comes, I believe you."

"Well, I'll come over then." Jiang Miao replied warmly.

After seeing the shop, he and Cheng Huai went back to the inn to pack up their things. The county is far away from the village, so it might be dark soon when we go back.

Seeing Jiang Miao folding clothes, Cheng Huai took everything over, "Daughter-in-law, I'm going to buy some pancakes, I'll be hungry on the way."

Jiang Miao couldn't stand hunger, he was afraid that it would be difficult to buy food on the way.

"Okay, my husband will buy more." The scallion pancakes made by this inn are delicious, and she ate two at once yesterday.

Cheng Huai went downstairs to buy pancakes, Jiang Miao packed up her clothes, went down with her bag, and asked the inn to refund the deposit by the way.

As soon as the money was collected, a luxuriously dressed young man walked in at the door.

Seeing a beautiful figure, he stretched out his hand without hesitation, grabbed Jiang Miao's shoulder, and teased, "Which family does the young lady belong to? How about being a concubine for me?"

The strong smell of alcohol came to my face.

Jiang Miao grabbed the bundle and threw it towards his face, frowning, "Treat me if you are sick, don't go into heat everywhere like a male dog!"

"Bah, you little slut, I think highly of you by making you a concubine." The other party raised his hand and wiped his face, "You are quite pretty, since you are all close to me, why are you pretending?"

There was also a group of drunk drinking buddies beside him, joking and joking with their mouths open, flattering and encouraging him.

Jiang Miao immediately ran to the gap on the side, and the next moment, the people behind caught the burden.

"You still want to run?" The man reached out and pulled back.

There was nothing important in the baggage except clothes, so Jiang Miao let go of her hand decisively.

The man ran away, and the drunk man was immediately annoyed, commanding the servant behind him: "Catch her!"

Seeing Jiang Miao being entangled by several people, Cheng Huai hurried over and knocked down the person in front with one punch.

Then came a group of servants behind, copying the inn chairs and throwing them at them.

Seeing Cheng Huai, Jiang Miao breathed a sigh of relief, and grabbed the chair next to him to stand firm.

"Daughter-in-law, is there anything wrong?" Cheng Huai hurried back to look at Jiang Miao after knocking him down, his eyes were nervous.

Jiang Miao supported his arm, "Master, they took the burden away."

"I'll get it." Cheng Huai helped her sit down, raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat off her forehead,

"Master, be careful."

The tall man strode over, glanced coldly at the wailing servant on the ground, and then looked at the young man who was still drunk just now but now his legs were trembling.

"Bring it." He said in a calm voice.

Seeing that the other party was not moving, Cheng Huai walked over to grab the burden and punched him.

"Mr. Liu!" The people nearby rushed to help the man who was beaten to the ground.

Jiang Miao's heart stopped when he saw it, and he quickly got up and went over, grabbing Cheng Huai's hand, "Mr.

"He's not dead." Cheng Huai hung the burden on his shoulders and picked up Jiang Miao horizontally. "The pancakes are bought, let's go home."

Jiang Miao immediately put her arms around his neck and stopped looking back.

It would take two or three hours to go back to the village, so Cheng Huai hired a bullock cart along the way and put clothes on the floor of the cart.

"Did you get hurt?" He touched Jiang Miao's arm through the sleeve of his clothes.

Jiang Miao reached out and hugged his waist, "No, if he wanted to catch me, I lost my burden and ran away. Luckily, my husband came quickly."

"My daughter-in-law is very smart." Holding her shoulders, Cheng Huai turned around and brought out pancakes, "Eat some, it's still hot."

Jiang Miao shook her head, she had no appetite after such a fuss.

Cheng Huai took the cake back and hugged her tightly, "Then sleep for a while, I'll call you when I get home."

Jiang Miao closed her eyes, grabbed his arm and touched it, then quickly opened her eyes and lifted his sleeves to look down.

Cheng Huai followed her gaze and frowned, "Just go back and apply some medicine."

There was a bruise on the elbow, probably from the sneak attack of those boys, Jiang Miao immediately said, "Master, stop ahead first."

"Sir, there is a medical clinic up ahead." Jiang Miao pulled him out of the car, "Go and see if you have any bones."

If the bones are not treated in time, they will suffer in old age.

Cheng Huai had no choice but to get out of the car with the burden first, and let the ox cart driver wait on the side of the road.

"Doctor, please help my husband take a look. He was hit by a chair just now." After entering the medical hall, Jiang Miao hurriedly went to call for the doctor.

The doctor hurried over and touched the position of Cheng Huai's elbow, "Don't worry, little lady, there is no bone injury, just some blood."

"It's okay, don't worry." Seeing Jiang Miao's serious expression, Cheng Huai looked at her and said warmly.

The doctor gave him the needle and said leisurely: "It's nothing, but it will hurt for a few days. Your husband is not afraid of pain at all."

Jiang Miao's eyes turned red.

Cheng Huai pursed his lower lip, looked at the doctor with deep eyes, and wanted him to stop talking.

After coming out of the medical hall, the two got on the bullock cart again.

Seeing that Jiang Miao's eyes were still red, Cheng Huai raised his hand to touch her eyes, "I have rough skin and thick flesh, it really doesn't hurt, don't listen to that doctor's bluffing."

"You're just bluffing. Why do you have to tell lies?" As soon as he spoke, Jiang Miao couldn't hold back his tears.

Cheng Huai raised his hands in a panic, Jiang Miao hurriedly pushed them back, and said in a nasal voice, "Don't move your hands, it won't hurt if I cry."

"I hate to see you cry." The man said in a calm voice, his eyes fell on her tears, and his heart felt a little sore.

Jiang Miao also hated herself for being worthless, and smiled when she saw him bursting into tears: "Your wife loves to cry, what can you do?"

"Coax." Wiping her with a handkerchief, Cheng Huai lowered his head and touched her face, "When I get home later, mother will think I did something to you."
