Chapter 76 Suspect

"Can you try to make friends with Jiang Anning recently?"

Who is Jiang Wei talking to?
Are there actually other spies of his in this village?

Jiang Anning frowned, walked quickly to the window, opened the window and looked out.

In the corner, Aunt Gui was holding a small dustpan, picking out the dustpan, bumping it a few times from time to time, and blowing out the broken skin and debris inside with the wind.

Near the kitchen, Aunt Fang was picking beans.

From time to time, I would talk to Sui Ran inside.

There was no one else in the front yard, not to mention Jiang Wei.

Who was he talking to just now?

Jiang Anning felt a little irritated.

I wish I could just break Jiang Wei's neck to avoid another disaster.
-
A separate courtyard somewhere in the county.

"Boss, someone wants to buy Zhao Yuanshan and go out, do you think?"

Wang Shang said: "Buy Zhao Yuanshan?"

He chuckled, as if he heard something funny: "Who can't think of it, and want to buy such a piece of trash?"

"It seems that she is a prostitute over at Huafang. Not long ago, she made a fuss about redeeming her body, but no one was willing to take her home. It became a joke to the whole community."

Seeing Wang Shang's cold and indifferent gaze, the subordinates hurriedly restrained their smiles and carefully replied: "Not long ago, this prostitute did a business with the madam, and she actually got free. Now I'm afraid she wants to recruit a bride. He is such a softie, but he finally has a man to support his family, and he will give birth to a boy and a half girl, so he has hope for the future."

"It just so happens that that good-for-nothing Zhao Yuanshan was looking around in the city not long ago, hoping to marry into a wealthy family with his own body."

Wang Shang raised his eyebrows: "According to you, it was just an accident that she found Zhao Yuanshan?"

"My subordinates think so..." The subordinates were unsure.

Their leader was really unstable in mood and anger, and now because they had jointly reported his bad intentions before, not only did he not get reprimanded by the Lord, but he gained more trust.

Seeing that all affairs in Jiang'an County, no matter how big or small, are about to be discussed by adults, how can they dare to relax?

Aren't you afraid that when you look back in your sleep, your head will be cut off and you'll be given poisoned wine?
"Since it's just a coincidence, why did you come all the way to tell me this?"

Wang Shang sneered.

The subordinates suddenly sweated on their foreheads.

"Subordinate, subordinate..."

Wang Shang: "Do you know how the woman who painted the boat negotiated with the madam about the redemption?"

"It is said that the prostitute presented a spice recipe to people, and the incense made from this recipe made the passers-by dizzy. Even if they didn't want to follow them to have a drink in their boat, they could not help but follow them back. ”

"In the past, there was almost no business in the boat, but now, it has become arrogant, threatening to queue up for a number, and paying a deposit first to be eligible to wait for them to clear the spot."

His subordinates couldn't help but feel glad that they had inquired carefully before coming.

Otherwise, I'm afraid I'm going to have to deal with a lot of punishment.

"spices……"

Wang Shang plucked a flower from the bonsai crabapple next to him, held it between his fingers, and crushed it into a pulp.

"Do you know the origin of the fragrant recipe in the hand of the boat-painting woman?"

The subordinate just said: "It is said that it was passed down from the prostitute's ancestors..."

Before he could finish his words, he got kicked.

"waste!"

Wang Shang was furious: "If she had already had spices that could attract customers, why would she not have used them before, but only took them out now?"

The subordinates were kicked so hard that they almost got a mouthful of dirt.

But he didn't dare to make a sound despite the pain, so he hurriedly knelt down again and admitted his mistake honestly: "I am ignorant."

Wang Shang snorted lightly, but didn't say anything about the human bones.

"Let's check carefully to find out who this boat girl usually hangs out with."

"Yes!"

The subordinate hesitated: "Well, Zhao Yuanshan..."

"It's just a useless waste. If someone likes to recycle waste, give it to her."

Wang Shang smiled casually: "Maybe you can follow the clues and find out something."

"What do you mean, boss?"

This prostitute came to redeem Zhao Yuanshan's life. Could it be that someone had instigated her?
The men were so frightened by this idea that they broke into a cold sweat.

"Could it be someone from Jianghou's house?"

Wang Shang smiled: "Who knows? Didn't I ask you to check it out?"

He reached out and patted the person's cheek: "Why are you so nervous?"

"Take it easy..."

The subordinates were trembling all over, and they gradually had a bad feeling in their hearts.

When he came out of the other courtyard again, his legs were weak.

There was even a burning sensation behind him.

He bit his lip with a pale face, and tremblingly got into the carriage arranged for him by the man.

Originally, he came on horseback.

Now he could only lie down in the carriage and return to his residence like a dead fish.

"It seems that what I said is right, this man is a beast!"

"Despicable and dirty, he will use some unscrupulous means to torture and destroy the people under his command."

He hated it so much and was helpless.

I just hope that I can redeem Zhao Yuanshan's woman as soon as possible and have her cleared up.
-
The villagers finished their meal in a lively manner, and returned home contentedly carrying their portions of meat and leftovers in pots and bowls.

With Aunt Fang's help and keeping an eye on them, these people were sensible enough to clean up the yard before leaving.

Jiang Anning was still thinking about who Jiang Wei had said those words to.

She thought about it and felt that among the three people who were in the front yard just now, Aunt Gui was the most suspicious.

It happened that when everyone had dispersed just now, Aunt Gui had almost no other communication except for saying hello to her in an honest and courteous manner.

No different than anyone else.

It fits Aunt Gui's personality all along, honest and honest, taciturn, shy and introverted.

Aunt Fang helped clean up the kitchen and went home quickly: "If you need anything, just say hello."

She wiped her wet hands on her skirt: "As the old saying goes, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors."

Jiang Anning responded with a smile.

I couldn't decide which one was related to Jiang Wei.

Sui Ran stood aside and hesitated several times.

In the end, he glanced at Chen Xiaohua, who was honest and affectionate at the side, and swallowed back what he originally wanted to say.

"Well, nothing happens, so I'll go back first."

Jiang Anning nodded: "Sister-in-law Guicheng, walk slowly."

She watched the person go out and stood at the door for a while, until the person's back was completely out of sight. Then she closed the door and turned around to go back to the house.

When Chen Xiaohua heard the noise, she seemed very cautious.

"An Ning, you, you wash your feet."

She pointed to the steaming wooden basin next to her, and twisted her clothes uneasily with her hands.

Jiang Anning was surprised.

Then he said: "You don't have to do these things."

Chen Xiaohua suddenly became more nervous.

Jiang Anning really doesn't have much experience in getting along with others.

Ever since I got married in my previous life, I had lived a life of confusion, humiliation, and no friends at all. "You can settle down in the West Room tonight. There are new pillows and quilts in the cabinet."

Jiang Anning looked a little unfamiliar and said: "Go to bed early and go to bed early. I will go to town and rent a carriage tomorrow to take you home, okay?"

"well."

Chen Xiaohua cried with joy and kept wiping her tears with her hands.

"Thank you, thank you for the peace."

She was excited and incoherent, as if something suddenly occurred to her, her knees bent, and she was about to kneel down and kowtow.

Fortunately, Jiang Anning had quick eyesight and quick hands, and was able to hold the person back.

She comforted people not very skillfully: "Go to rest early and stop crying, otherwise your eyes will become swollen from crying, and your parents will be sad if they see you later."

"Okay, I won't cry anymore."

Chen Xiaohua wiped her eyes vigorously, but the tears kept coming and she couldn't wipe them away no matter how hard she wiped them away. Instead, she kept wiping them more and more.

Jiang Anning looked at her embarrassment and handed her a clean handkerchief: "Go get some water and wash your face. Don't wait until your eyes are swollen from crying. Let's rub them out first."

Chen Xiaohua lowered her head in embarrassment and held the handkerchief tightly in her hand: "I'm sorry..."

Jiang Anning really didn't have the experience to deal with this. She was at a loss for a while, then patted the person's shoulder: "Go quickly."

"Eh!"

Chen Xiaohua responded, her eyebrows and eyes full of caution, and she went to fetch water and wash her face obediently.

After the two of them had washed themselves, they looked at each other in silence for a while.

Phew.

Jiang Anning couldn't help but laugh: "Go and have a rest quickly. What are you doing here with your eyes wide open?"

Chen Xiaohua's face turned red.

"Then, then peace, you should go to bed early." She said in a small voice.
-
Jiang Wei's home.

The lights are on all night long.

He wrote a letter overnight and asked someone to catch a few silkworm farmers from Huzhou.

"It's best to be from the Sang family."

When Jiang Wei mentioned the Sang family, he couldn't help but feel a strong anger in his eyes.

Sheng Ji was stunned: "Sang family?"

He looked at the person carefully and reminded tactfully: "Master, the Sang family... has been wiped out long ago."

Jiang Wei gave the person a sidelong glance.

Shengji hurriedly lowered his head.

"You want me to teach you how to do this kind of thing?" Jiang Wei said coldly.

Shengji was at a loss for a moment, and then his brain finally came to his senses: "I will make arrangements now. The descendants of the Sang family will come to Jiang'an County soon to look for the orphan of the late eldest daughter of the Sang family."

Jiang Wei glanced at the person and said lightly "Hmm".
-
Chief Jiang’s home.

Chief Jiang was lying on the kang, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.

He poked his old wife Jiang Wang who was lying next to her: "Hey, have you talked to Jiang Anning today? What about Mr. Liu, how are you doing inquiring?"

"There are so many people around An Ning today, how can I find the time to inquire about this matter?"

Mrs. Jiang shook her shoulders in disgust at him.

"Why are you so fucked up?"

Patriarch Jiang just complained in a low voice, Jiang Wang, "Hey?" With a cry, he sat up and stared at him with a pair of big eyes: "If you're not finished, then why don't you know how to ask around? You're just pointing at me, right?"

"What are you talking about? How can I, a grown man, ask about these things..."

Patriarch Jiang found a good reason for himself.

He thought again about Jiang Anning stealing the limelight from him today, and said very dissatisfied: "Besides, you didn't notice her attitude towards me today. If I really asked, I would be asking for trouble. "

"What's your attitude?"

Mrs. Jiang turned her head and looked at him: "Don't try to deal with those who have something but not... Today, Tiantian, you know, I regard you as the clan leader. I don't know, I thought you were the Bailihou. Tiantian One needs to have an attitude, and the other has an attitude.”

"You tiger bitch!"

The elder of the Jiang clan was very dissatisfied: "I'm talking to you about something serious. I'm going to analyze it seriously. What's your attitude?"

Mrs. Jiang rolled her eyes.

Feeling that this old bastard most likely couldn't hold in any good shit, he simply turned around and turned his back to the person, not wanting to take any notice of him.

"You haven't seen how many times Jiang Anning stole the limelight from me when we were discussing the village's plans in the house today."

"What is she going to do?"

"Is she going to be the matriarch of the clan to steal the limelight from me?"

"It's so contrary to heaven..."

Hu~sh~hu~hu~
Jiang Wang immediately started snoring and suppressed the words that Chief Jiang wanted to curse Jiang Anning.

"Heartless!"

Chief Jiang muttered, but he really couldn't go on.

Just thinking about Jiang Anning's intention to snatch his position as clan leader made him very irritable.

Can't sleep at all.

no! It’s better to take precautions in advance.

Near dawn, it suddenly started to rain lightly.

Jiang Anning was sleeping soundly when she was woken up by the sound of raindrops hitting the window paper.

"It's raining?"

He rubbed his eyes and sat up, staring out the window in a daze for a while before realizing that it was indeed raining.

She hates rainy days.

Whenever the weather gets gloomy, I feel inexplicably irritable.

Counting the time, it was almost around the time of Grain Rain.

It’s time for more rain.

She sat in a daze for a while. There was nothing to dry outside, and there were no chickens, ducks, cattle or sheep at home.

Even in the yard, there are no crops that need to be taken care of.

There is no need to go out and endure the rain.

However, the noisy sounds outside could not avoid reaching her ears.

Everyone is busy carrying firewood into the house, picking up clothes and so on.

Maybe I didn't expect it to rain.

After all, the weather was so good yesterday, with the sunset glowing like fire and covering a large area of ​​the sky, and it really didn't look like it was going to rain.

Jiang Anning sat for a while, thinking that the rain might still rain, so she simply got back into bed again and caught up on her sleep.

Unexpectedly, the rain came and went in a hurry.

The sun still rises from the east.

The golden sun shines on the leaves of the trees that are still hanging with water drops. Birds chirp and jump happily, and from time to time, they brush off the water drops on many leaves.

Water droplets falling from a height fell into small puddles, split into pieces with a snap, and created a circle of ripples.

When someone was passing by, he accidentally stepped into a puddle, and immediately a larger splash of water, carrying a lot of mud particles, sprayed onto the person's skirt and trousers.

"peaceful!"

There was a knock on the door of Jiang Anning's house, and the man who was still sleeping comfortably snorted reluctantly, stretched his waist, and thought about taking a few breaths to relax.

Unexpectedly, he fell asleep again.

"An Ning, open the door, something happened!"
