Still thinking of the knife at this time, Jiang Miao couldn't help laughing: "No more, give it to them."

"Ah."

After returning to the inn, shopkeeper Xiao and Wan Qilin saw the distinguished guest out.

"Stay back!"

Cheng Huai paused, ignored him, and carried Jiang Miao back to the house.

The other party chased after him, Jiang Miao turned his head to look, and found it very familiar, "Sir, you seem to be looking for us?"

"I don't know." After closing the door, Cheng Huai hugged Jiang Miao and sat down beside the bed.

There was a knock on the door outside, "Brother Cheng?"

"Go and have a look, Mr. Xiang. I won't offend you." Seeing that the man's tough face was somewhat similar to that one, Jiang Miao reached out and touched his head, "Just make it clear, I'll wait for you to come back."

Cheng Huai paused, turned around to open the door, and met that familiar yet unfamiliar face, feeling extremely calm in his heart.

Cheng Wanli opened his mouth, "You"

"If you have something to say later, don't wait if you can't wait." The tall and strong man said with a cold face, without showing any face.

Wan Qilin and shopkeeper Xiao were stunned for a moment, and quickly smoothed things over, "Master Li, why don't you go to the private room next door and sit for a while?"

Cheng Wanli sighed, and looked at Cheng Huai's face twice more.

Cheng Huai closed the door and continued to come back to apply medicine to Jiang Miao.

When a man is in a bad mood, he likes to keep silent. Seeing him digging up the ointment and applying it on her hands, Jiang Miao raised her head and kissed his forehead, "What a good husband."

"Don't be scared by me." After applying the medicine, Cheng Huai stretched out his arms to hug her, not letting her see his cold face.

He was frightening when he was sullen. Children in the village had been scared and cried before.

Jiang Miao stretched out her arms to hug him, and patted his back, "Sister-in-law is not scary, I am not."

If you are familiar with the rough man's temperament, you know that he is the most gentle and considerate person.

"That lord." Jiang Miao wanted to ask if it was his real father, because the two really looked alike.

It's just that Cheng Huai obviously doesn't want to accept the current situation.

"He has disappeared for more than ten years, whether he is or not is not important anymore." The man's voice was hoarse, and there was a bit more forbearance in his rough tone.

Jiang Miao patted his head, "If it's not important, then treat it as a stranger."

"Are you hungry? You only drank a bowl of porridge this morning." The man's tone softened, and his eyes fell on her stomach.

After saying this, I was really hungry, Jiang Miao covered her stomach, "Sir, I want to eat the shortbread across the street."

"Okay, I'll buy it."

He stood up, thought of something, bowed his head and said, "Don't go out, don't pay attention to anyone who shouts."

"Well, I'll lock the door."

As soon as Cheng Huai left, someone knocked on the door outside.

"Miss Cheng, Mrs. Li, please go and meet me."

Jiang Miao didn't respond, and the visitor said again: "Miss Cheng, let's meet up, it's not good to offend a nobleman."

"Understood." Jiang Miao sat up from the bed and sighed.

Although I don't know how big an official is, but it is definitely not small.

It's really not easy to offend the future of this hospitable person based on a single word from the other party.

The woman was dressed in light blue linen, with a white cloth belt around her waist, and a simple wooden hairpin in her hair.

The craftsmanship of the carving is very rough, and I think it was done at home by myself.

She sat upright, with a calm and calm face, as if she was not afraid at all.

Cheng Wanli looked at her with sharp and old eyes for a moment, then quickly turned to drink tea, "How long have you two been married?"

"Almost half a year."

"At home." He hesitated to speak, and then his expression was indifferent, "Is everything okay?"

Jiang Miao looked up at him, "Everything is fine, and my mother is also fine."

"It's all good."

Cheng Wanli's eyes flickered, unexpectedly, Jiang Miao could hear what he wanted to ask.

This little woman is not only calm and unhurried, but also a little clever.

"I can't stay long, and I don't have to tell her the news of coming here."

Jiang Miao frowned lightly, finally nodded and agreed: "Okay."

"My lord, there are thieves breaking in!"

As soon as the words were finished, the door was kicked open, and Cheng Huai, who was full of anger and hostility, rushed in with strides, kicking all the passing stools over at his feet.

Jiang Miao walked over quickly and grabbed his hand, "Sir, I'm fine."

Bending down to pick him up, Cheng Huai looked at the man in front of him with a cold face, "We all treat you as dead, and since you are dead, don't appear in front of us."

"I have a last resort, and I will definitely explain it to you in the future." Cheng Wanli frowned deeply, with a little melancholy on his face.

Cheng Huai looked at him sullenly, "No one will wait for you."

Seeing that he no longer explained, Cheng Huai turned around and left, closing the door loudly, as if to vent his dissatisfaction and anger.

Back in the house, Cheng Huai grabbed Jiang Miao's arm and touched it, "He didn't do anything to you, did he?"

"No, I just asked a few words, my husband, don't worry." Jiang Miao raised his hand and stroked his brow, "I'm done with things here, let's go to the county town and see how the Xu family is doing."

After giving her the shortbread, Cheng Huai sat quietly by the side, "Get some sleep before you go, you didn't get enough sleep last night."

"Okay." Jiang Miao took two bites of the shortbread, felt that it was not too greasy, and handed it to the rough man's mouth, "It's delicious."

He turned his head sideways and took a bite. Seeing the gloss of her red lips, he couldn't help leaning over to touch her.

"Master!"

"There are no outsiders." The man laughed softly, cupped her face with both hands, and sucked her face twice on purpose.

Jiang Miao raised her head slightly, her eyes brightened, "I'll be happy if you kiss me, then I'll give you a few more kisses."

"It's obviously my daughter-in-law who wants me to kiss."

The big hand wrapped around his waist well, he lowered his head and bit it lightly, then withdrew after a while, got up to drink water, his chest heaved violently.

Jiang Miao finished eating the shortbread, "I'll go down to the back kitchen to have a look, and I'll sleep when I get up."

"I'll go with you." The boy who made trouble before and Master Qin didn't know how Wan Qilin and the others dealt with it.

When the door was opened, the person next door and the guard who had been guarding the door just now were gone.

Jiang Miao subconsciously looked at Cheng Huai.

The man spoke so harshly just now, but how can he be angry if he doesn't care.

At least I don't know the reason, but I still can't let it go.

Cheng Huai glanced at it and didn't look any further. He led Jiang Miao downstairs, and saw Wan Qilin ordering the servant and Master Qin to do the dishes.

"Be honest and clean the dishes for a month, otherwise you two will never want to leave."

"That bastard Wang Maofei actually wanted to plot against me. If I hadn't expected it, he would have succeeded!"

Shopkeeper Xiao was holding an abacus at the side, "Break a bowl and add one month, and the two of you will leave until next year."

"Brother Cheng." Wan Qilin walked over, his gaze fell on Cheng Huai's face.

Probably because of his resemblance to Cheng Wanli.

Jiang Miao hurriedly said: "Brother Wan, we'll leave after we're done with our work here, come and find us if you have anything to do."

"Ms. Cheng, wait a minute!" Wan Qilin shouted immediately, "This time the dinner was well organized, and there is a lot of money. I will send it to you later."

"Okay, just pay the profits as agreed before."
