Jiang Hao's words exploded in her ears like thunder.

Since the death of her husband, she has been silent in her sorrow every day, feeling sorry for herself, and eventually fell ill.He didn't think about it at all, but the heavy burden of the family was on Xiao Jingshan, how could he, a half-year-old child, support himself.

She is not a qualified wife, let alone a qualified mother.

In an instant, Ning's eyes were filled with tears.

This shocked Jiang Hao on the side.

Isn't it true? She just told a few truths and didn't say anything else, but she made people cry?
Jiang Hao looked at Mrs. Ning with a troubled expression. Just as he was considering whether to comfort her, he saw Qiuling coming in from outside.

"Mom, what's wrong with you?" Qiu Ling's suspicious eyes fell on Jiang Hao.

Jiang Hao was speechless for a moment.

What, this girl wants to unjustly accuse her of bullying her mother again?

Fortunately, Ning came back to her senses, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and choked up: "It's okay. I was talking to your third sister-in-law, and suddenly I remembered some things from the past. Mom felt sorry for your third brother. When your father passed away, Jingshan was still As a half-grown child, I went into the mountains to hunt..."

Speaking of this, Ning's tears were like broken pearls.

Jiang Hao felt a little irritable for no reason. She hated it when someone cried without stopping.

"Mom, what are you thinking about so much? Aren't your days getting better now? Your illness is almost healed. Brother Jingshan is also working as a catcher in the yamen. We live in such a big yard and we have to look forward to the future. Don't keep thinking about the past." Qiuling comforted her softly.

Ning cried for a while and finally stopped her tears. She looked at Jiang Hao apologetically, "Okay, I'm sorry, I made you laugh."

She is just a useless person, I hope my daughter-in-law doesn't feel uncomfortable.

"It's okay. Qiu Ling is right. People should look forward and not dwell on the past."

Jiang Hao casually gave Ning a few words of advice.

Ning said a few more words, asked Jiang Hao to pay attention to rest, and went out.

Ning left and Jiang Hao slept again.

It was getting dark, so I came to the kitchen.She didn’t know what was going on, but she wanted to eat something spicy these days.

While cooking, Qiuling came again.

"I'll light the fire." He said and sat under the stove.

Jiang Hao raised her eyebrows. The new stove did not require anyone to keep the fire burning. Since moving to the new house, she had not let Qiu Ling burn the fire.

But she didn't say anything and continued cooking slowly.

Smelling the spicy smell in the air, Qiuling couldn't help but sneeze.

After a long while, he slowly said, "Sister-in-law, Mom specially made me some brown sugar ginger water. Did you drink it? Did you say thank you to Mom?"

"Drink, thank you." Jiang Hao's smile didn't reach his eyes, "Did you eat the lean meat porridge I made when I left in the morning?"

What did Qiu Ling want to say to let her know how to be grateful?

Qiu Ling's face changed slightly, "That's not what I meant."

Jiang Hao's tone was neither salty nor bland, "I didn't tell you what you meant. From now on, if you don't want to eat when I cook, you don't have to force yourself. Now there is no shortage of food at home."

Although Qiu Ling was not right with her now, Jiang Hao still couldn't get along with her.

Some people may not be born with the right aura.

After dinner, Jiang was so tired that he went to bed early.Xiao Jingshan still didn't come back that night.

……

At this time, Wu Jinsong was sitting in the room with his eyes closed and relaxing. There was a letter on the table, and the content of the letter made him upset.

After sitting for a while, Wu Jinsong got up and burned the letter.

"Hey!" Wu Jinsong let out a long sigh, and then his servants came to report that Xiao Jingshan was here.

Wu Jinsong asked his servants to invite Xiao Jingshan to the main hall, and he changed his clothes before coming to see the guests.

"Brother Jingshan."

"Boss Wu."

Xiao Jingshan put down the tea cup and stood up, handing over his hand, "It's too eye-catching during the day, so I'm here at night. I hope Boss Wu won't be offended."

"If so, I'd love it if you could come to my place." Wu Jinsong's face was full of enthusiasm and he hurriedly asked people to sit down.

The two exchanged a few polite words.

"I'm here today to say thank you. The gambler named Leopard has some skills. If Boss Wu hadn't taken action, he would have caused trouble for the family."

Xiao Jingshan didn't go home for the past two days. It was because of this incident that he set up a trap to let Bao Zi kill a gambler who didn't recognize his relatives and put him in prison.Unexpectedly, this person had some background and was actually the nephew of the sister of the wife of County Magistrate Zhou.After checking again and again, Xiao Jingshan was found. If he hadn't asked Wu Jinsong to help in time, he might have been involved.

"Brother Xiao, why are you so polite to me? This trivial matter is our life-long friendship after all. You are still my savior." Wu Jinsong took a sip of tea and did not take this matter to heart.

This kind of trivial matter is just a piece of cake for him.

"This is the beef sauce, mushroom sauce and hot sauce brought from home. They are not worth the money, but they are all given out of love. Please don't dislike them, Boss Wu."

Xiao Jingshan opened the package he brought with him, which contained various sauces prepared by Jiang Hao.

He specifically asked Jiang Hao for it and planned to keep it for himself to mix rice with.But Wu Jinsong liked it too, so he took it out as a thank you gift for helping him so much.

When Wu Jinsong heard that he had brought a sauce, his eyes suddenly lit up. He liked the sauce.He had tasted it on the way to the capital, and he had never forgotten it.

"Brother Jingshan is so polite, but I can't say enough about the craftsmanship of my brothers and sisters." Wu Jinsong wiped away his previous sadness and said happily: "As for the braised meat last time, it was sold all over the north, although there were quite a few Time-honored brands are vying to imitate, but no one can imitate the essence.”

Although a braised food business is a drop in the bucket for him, mosquitoes are still meat no matter how small they are.

After the two exchanged pleasantries, Wu Jinsong ordered his servants to prepare food and wine to entertain Xiao Jingshan well.

Not long after, a table full of good wine and delicious food was put on the table. Wu Jinsong asked the servants to step aside and started changing glasses with Xiao Jingshan.

At the dinner table, Wu Jinsong could be said to have met Xiao Jingshan late. He found that although Xiao Jingshan was a hunter, he was not vulgar at all. He was not only well-educated, but also very insightful. He had traveled all over the country in recent years, but Xiao Jingshan was still a newbie. Someone who can pick up on anything he says.

The more Wu Jinsong chatted, the happier he became. After drinking for three rounds, he started to sigh again.

Xiao Jingshan put down his chopsticks and started talking, "What's bothering Boss Wu? Why don't you tell me, maybe I can help."

To put it bluntly, he took up the role of Wu Jinsong to earn a future for himself. He couldn't keep taking the three taels of monthly silver and let his wife work hard to make money to support the family.

Wu Jinsong was a little drunk and felt depressed. He was looking for someone to pour out his bitterness to, so he said a few words.

"I received the letter from above. The Holy Emperor cares about Concubine Su and has no interest in government affairs. His position in the middle palace is vacant. Several princes have grown up. They have begun to take sides overtly and covertly in the court, and the fights in private have become even more fierce."

Xiao Jingshan was shocked. Although he had already guessed that Wu Jinsong was not an ordinary businessman, he never expected that he would be related to the Taifu's family.
