Chapter 74 is my pleasure!
In the study, Jiang Minghong heard the door knock, looked up and saw Xie Yuan coming back, and stood up.
"You haven't come back yet?" Xie Yuan walked into the study and looked at the young man and asked.
Jiang Minghong helped Xie Yuan, who smelled of alcohol, sit down, picked up the still warm hangover soup on the table and handed it to him.
"Sister A asked me to wait until you come back before going back. I dare not not listen to her words."
Hearing this, Xie Yuan drank up the hangover soup in one gulp. This feeling of being cared about in one's heart is so good!
He handed the empty bowl to Jiang Minghong and said, "Tell my fiancée that I'm fine and tell her not to worry."
Jiang Minghong looked at Xie Yuan, somewhat speechless.
"I know that my sister is your fiancée. You don't need to reiterate it. Don't you feel awkward talking like this?"
Xie Yuan smiled.
"My pleasure!"
Looking at the drunk man, Jiang Minghong magnanimously did not care about him.
"There is water in the kitchen, maybe you can wash yourself?"
Xie Yuan did not answer him but asked: "Is this also what your sister told you?"
Jiang Minghong said 'hmm' and said sourly, "I didn't expect that my sister, who was held in the palm of her parents' hands and always needed others' care, would one day understand how to care about others."
Xie Yuan poured himself a cup of tea and corrected: "I am not someone else, but your brother-in-law."
He drank the tea and then said: "It's my pleasure!"
"It's good that you know. If you dare to let me down in the future, I won't forgive you!" This sentence is both a threat and a warning.
Xie Yuan smiled and closed his eyes without saying anything. He would use his actions to prove that Jiang Mingyue did not choose the wrong person.
Jiang Minghong looked at the sleeping person, picked up the clothes on the chair, and put it on his body. He just took two steps out when he heard Xie Yuan say: "I have publicized your sister's rescue of me. I believe it." It won’t take long for this matter to spread in Wanping.”
Jiang Minghong paused slightly.
"I see!"
I have to say that Xie Yuan's attitude satisfied him very much. He didn't expect him to take action so quickly. After all, he and his sister had just gotten engaged.
In the Jiang family, Jiang Mingyue rubbed her eyes and yawned twice in a row. She stood up and saw that it was already midnight. She was about to go next door to have a look when her younger brother opened the door and walked in.
"Brother Xie is back?"
Jiang Mingyue asked sleepily with heavy sleepiness.
Jiang Minghong said 'hmm' and said without waiting for his sister to ask: "I'm slightly drunk. I've already drank the hangover soup. He asked me to tell you that he's fine, so that you don't have to worry about him."
"Oh!" Jiang Mingyue yawned again and said, "Go to sleep! It's very late!"
"Well, good night, sister!"
"good night!"
The next day, when the sun shone into the house through the window, a man with his bare upper body lazily turned over under the gray sheet, revealing his strong body.
The sun moved slowly and shone on the man's face. He lifted the sheets on his body and struggled to sit up. It was already early in the morning. Xie Yuan put on his clothes and walked out of the room. He was about to wash up when the courtyard door clicked. Ringed.
"coming!"
Xie Yuan quickly washed his face and opened the courtyard door.
"Mr. Xie, this is the breakfast my girl specially prepared for you." Pomegranate handed him the food box.
"Thank you, wait a moment!"
Xie Yuan walked into the kitchen with the food box, took out the porridge and steamed buns, and handed the food box to Pomegranate again.
After this breakfast, Xie Yuan felt physically and mentally comfortable. He put away his dishes and was about to go to Jinxiufang to see Jiang Mingyue when the courtyard door rang again.
"Uncle Ninth, Uncle Ninth, are you there?"
Xie Yuan heard Hu Zi's voice and said loudly: "Here!"
He opened the courtyard door, looked at Hu Zi who looked worried and asked, "But what happened in the village?"
"The village is fine, but it was Grandma Fifth who was in trouble. Uncle Mao scratched Grandma Fifth's face, and then she cried and screamed, and even rumored that you had harmed him. The patriarch said that if you are free, you should go back."
Xie Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly, moved his seat and said, "Come in first!"
"Hey!"
Xie Yuan personally scooped up a basin of water and handed it to Huzi: "Wash your face!"
"Thank you Uncle Jiu!"
"Are you ready for breakfast?" Xie Yuan asked looking at Huzi who was washing his face.
"not yet!"
Xie Yuan walked into the kitchen and handed him the remaining two buns and said, "Push your stomach."
"Hey!"
Xie Yuan went back to the house and opened the drawer. When he took the golden sore medicine, he looked at the innermost medicine bottle, thought for a moment, and then put it into his arms.
After a while, he took Huzi and rode back to Xiejia Village.
In Jinxiufang, Jiang Mingyue saw off a guest. It was already two o'clock in the morning. Pomegranate must have given breakfast to Brother Xie. I don't know if he was sober or not, so he felt uncomfortable.
She was so absorbed in her thoughts that she didn't even notice someone approaching Jiang Mingyue until that person spoke.
"Miss Jiang, what are you thinking about?"
Jiang Mingyue came back to her senses and saw that it was Mr. Lin, and said with a look of surprise: "Hello Aunt Lin, I haven't seen you for a long time. Has Lin Xiucai's marriage been settled?"
Mrs. Lin smiled when she mentioned her son's life events.
"It's settled. This is not the first time I'll be employed. I'm here to buy two pieces of cloth."
"Congratulations to Aunt Lin on your double happiness. I heard from my brother that Master Yu has officially hired Lin Xiucai. Your and Xiaoju's good days are still to come!"
There was a bit of pride in Aunt Lin's bright smile.
"I'll lend you some good words."
After the two chatted for a while, Jiang Mingyue asked, "What kind of cloth does Auntie want to buy?"
"Go and hire the woman. The cloth can't be too bad, but my family knows my own affairs. I can't afford it if it's too good. Just buy two pieces of high-quality cotton!"
Hearing this, Jiang Mingyue led her to the shelves and asked, "Why didn't you bring Xiao Ju here?"
"This girl got sunstroke while picking wheat in the field the day before yesterday, so I didn't bring her here."
"Is she feeling better?" Jiang Mingyue asked with concern.
"Sorry for your concern, Xiaoju's health has improved a lot, and she will be fine after just two more days of rest."
Jiang Mingyue nodded, pointed to a row of sermons and said, "These are all high-quality cotton. What color do you want, Auntie?"
Lin took a closer look and said, "Pomegranate red and aqua blue."
Jiang Mingyue immediately took out the two pieces of cloth, took Lin to the counter, and told Han Lanlan that each piece of cloth was five cents cheaper.
"Has the day for Lin Xiucai's big day been decided?" Han Lanlan asked after receiving the money.
Jiang Mingyue perked up her ears instantly.
"It's set for the sixth day of August."
"That's only a little over two months away. Don't forget to treat me to a wedding drink then." Han Lanlan said.
"You are willing to come. I wish you the best. I will definitely invite you."
Mrs. Lin paused and looked at Jiang Mingyue and said: "Miss Jiang will come with us when the time comes. No gifts are required. I am very happy that you can come and have a drink."
Jiang Mingyue responded with a warm "OK", took out a silk flower and handed it to Mrs. Lin, saying, "This is for Xiaoju. I hope she recovers soon."
Although the silk flowers were not worth much, they made Lin feel warm in her heart.
"Okay, I will definitely pass it on to her. Goodbye, Shopkeeper Han and Miss Jiang."
"Goodbye, please walk slowly."
At the same time, Xie Yuan took Hu Zi back to Xiejia Village.
