Chapter 49 Too Dangerous

"Inside the mountain."

Village Chief Jiang's expression changed, "It's too dangerous."

"Why should people give money if it's not dangerous?" Jiang Miao shook the note, "So I said, if they encounter danger when they go in, they can't come to trouble me. After all, I didn't force them to go."

"Go ahead, I don't believe that there are so many of us that we can't deal with a few wild beasts."

Hai Ziniang was the first to sign the contract, followed by the second and third, and everyone who came signed the contract.

After sending everyone away, Jiang Miao put away the receipts, divided the cakes sent by Shopkeeper He into two parts, and after thinking about it, divided them into three parts and gave them to Village Chief Jiang and his two uncles.

The Seventh Uncle and the Ninth Uncle accepted it with smiles, but Village Chief Jiang's eyes widened, "These are snacks from Xingyuanzhai. Xingyuanzhai's snacks are never cheap. Where did you get the money?"

Jiang Miao didn't answer, "Uncle Jiang Village doesn't want it?"

Village Chief Jiang choked and looked at the heavy snacks, his heart moved shamefully.

He had only eaten Xingyuanzhai's snacks twice, and he had eaten them when he went to visit relatives in the county.

However, although this snack is very expensive, I still have to say, "I don't know how you suddenly made money, but you can't spend it like this if you have money, but don't be greedy for food and drink and waste all your money." ”

"The village chief is right, don't worry, I won't buy it for you in the future, I will only buy it for my two uncles."

Village Chief Jiang finally left angrily.

The seventh uncle couldn't help but laugh, "Why are you so vindictive, little girl?"

"I didn't. I gave the village chief some snacks with good intentions, but he turned around and wanted to teach me a lesson. I just said a few words, and he got angry. As the village chief who manages this village, How can you be so stingy?"

This sentence hit the seventh uncle's heart, and he sighed, "Even a child understands the truth, but he doesn't."

"Just two more years of training will be enough." Uncle Jiu said.

After sending away the two uncles, Jiang Miao fetched cold water and found medicine to treat trauma.

While helping Luo Tingye clean the wound, he kept nagging: "No matter what makes you angry, you can't hurt yourself. What if you hurt a bone? What if you become disabled? You won't be able to hold a pen in the future."

Luo Tingye didn't speak. The warm touch on the back of his hand was like a vine growing out of thin air. Along his shoulders, his arms wrapped around his heart from top to bottom, making his breathing speed up a lot.

Jiang Miao was still chattering.

Luo Tingye looked away and coughed, "Why, you gave me some medicine and you want to take care of me?"

Jiang Miao hardened up, "You are living in my house now, I don't care what happens to you? Besides, wasn't what I said right?" Her cheeks turned slightly red.

Luo Tingye felt his mouth dry, and his eyes showed a bit of doting unknowingly, "Oh, people have to bow their heads under the eaves."

"As long as you know."

Jiang Miao raised her chin triumphantly. If she had a tail, it would have been raised high.

After dinner, Jiang Miao came to Uncle Jiu's house, "Uncle Jiu, uncle Jiu, I'm here to see you." Hearing this, Uncle Jiu narrowed his eyes and pushed all the children around him aside, "You kid is so talkative. You are becoming more and more polite, but your little thoughts are too obvious. You have just met me, but why did you come to me again all of a sudden? Is there something difficult to deal with? "

"No, uncle Jiu, you have wronged me."

When Uncle Jiu saw something in her hand, she pushed her old man and said, "You are still teasing a child at such an old age. Miss Miao, please ignore him. If you need anything, tell me and I will help you."

Jiang Miao chuckled and took out two pieces of fabric from the bag, "Uncle Jiu is so kind, but Uncle Jiu misunderstood me. It's not a bad thing this time. I came here specifically to see Sister-in-law Shan Xing. I heard that she is a good worker, and I want her to make two sets of clothes for my eldest brother and my eldest brother’s brother. I have already measured the sizes, but I don’t know how to do it, so I’m afraid of wasting the fabric.”

When Uncle Jiu heard this, she quickly called Shan Xing out of the house.

Shan Xing agreed, "Leave it to me, don't worry, I can make it in two days."

"I asked the cloth shop in the city. A set of adult clothes, including the craftsmanship fee, costs [-] cents per piece. There are four sets of clothes here in total, so the prices in the city are calculated."

"How can this work? How can my craftsmanship be comparable to that of the embroiderers in the city's cloth shops? Besides, your relatives are just making two sets of clothes for you, so how can you ask for money?"

Jiang Miao stuffed the fabric into her arms, "You're wasting your time making clothes for me and you can't do your own thing. Of course I have to pay you. If you don't accept it, I'll find someone else to do it."

Shan Xing squeezed the cloth tightly and looked at the Ninth Uncle and Ninth Uncle in embarrassment.

Uncle Jiu smiled so hard that she narrowed her eyes and walked over unsteadily, "Since A Miao is interested in your craftsmanship, then you agree to her, but we are all members of our own family, there is no need to talk about such a high amount of money, I mean. That’s fine, just fifteen cents for a piece of clothing.”

Jiang Miao hurriedly counted out sixty coins and gave it to Shan Xing, "Nine uncles, nine uncles, grandparents, uncles and aunts, I'm leaving."

"Amiao, walk slowly!" Everyone at home responded.

Jiang Miao thought this feeling was wonderful and went home happily.

Shan Xing glanced at her back with envy, turned around and quickly handed the sixty coins he had received to Uncle Nine respectfully.

Uncle Jiu thought for a while, collected the forty coins, and left twenty coins for Shan Xing, "You have been married for a few months, and you will have a child soon. Then you will need to spend money on everything." Money, you can keep these twenty cents, and you don’t need to give them to your mother-in-law."

"Yes."

Uncle Jiu touched the fabric with her rough hands, "This girl is willing to give it up. This is fine cotton from the county, and most people can't afford it."

Shan Xing's eyes flashed, "Maybe it's because Jiang Qian is a scholar, so he is more particular about food and clothing. I think Uncle Wu also wears fine cotton."

Uncle Jiu was relieved, "That's right, scholars are just different from us."

After leaving Uncle Jiu's house, Jiang Miao went to Orion's house in the village and invited him to go up the mountain with her tomorrow. After all, there were so many aunts and sisters-in-law going to the mountains to dig wild vegetables, and she couldn't take care of them by herself.

Although he said that it had nothing to do with her if something happened, he was a fellow villager after all. If something happened, he couldn't ignore her at all.

Even if she could do it, she would be drowned in the spit of the villagers.

Besides, I always have to think about my eldest brother’s reputation.

Knowing her purpose of coming, Hu Lihu, who is in his 40s, agreed wholeheartedly.
