After sending Liu Cuihua and Da Yang away, Mu Qiange directly threw away the plates on the table, and next time he must not invite Liu Cuihua into the house.

"Why don't you throw away the good plates!"

Ah Jin's sudden voice made Mu Qiange, who was frightened, not standing firmly.

"You're a cat, and you don't make a sound when you walk."

Mu Qiange was already depressed by Liu Cuihua, and at this time, he was frightened by Ah Jin like this, and he suddenly became angry.

"It's because you're too focused, I've been back for a while, and I saw you muttering alone, who messed with you?"

Although Mu Qiange has a bad temper, it is rare to see her like this.

"Where have you been, why are you only back now?"

"Hey, it looks like you're caring about me."

Ah Jin looked in a very good mood, and his pair of phoenix eyes overflowed with charming color.

"Who cares about you, love to say it or not?"

Ah Jin wasn't teasing her either, "Aunt Li saw that I was home alone, because the kitchen was burned last time, she didn't worry about me cooking, so she was afraid that I would be hungry and let me go to her house for dinner." ”

"It's really good-looking, and it's popular everywhere."

Mu Qiange muttered a little and went into the kitchen, she was still hungry.

"Qiange, what did you say, I didn't hear clearly."

Ah Jin also followed Mu Qiange into the kitchen and asked behind Mu Qiange.

I don't know what medicine Ah Jin took wrong today, I haven't seen him so enthusiastic before.

Suddenly I smelled a faint smell of alcohol, "You've been drinking." ”

"Uncle Li and Aunt Li are enthusiastic, they are all the best hospitality in the family, and naturally they are indispensable for drinking."

Mu Qiange saw that what Ah Jin said was a matter of course, and he was immediately angry.

"Do you know that Aunt Li's family is not wealthy, and the meal that was served to you today may have cost her family half a year's expenses."

"How can it be as exaggerated as you say, it's just a meal, and it's all home-cooked, and there is no big fish and meat."

Mu Qiange saw that Ah Jin looked like a noble son, so he naturally didn't know the suffering of the common people. I won't talk to him anymore, and I still have to repay Ah Jin's debt to Aunt Li's family in the future.

"Remember that I was treated by Aunt Li's family today, and she can't shirk it if she has someone in her family who can help you in the future."

Mu Qiange said very cautiously, and Ah Jin also knew about the accident, so he didn't refuse.

"Okay, you're busy, I'll go back to my room and rest."

Mu Qiange glared at Ah Jin's back a few times before starting to make a fire to cook.

She stewed a bowl of rice for herself, fried shredded potatoes, and then ate it.

After dinner, Mu Qiange cleaned up the kitchen before returning to the room to rest. At the end of the day, although I didn't do much work, I was quite tired, and it didn't take long for me to fall asleep.

Early the next morning, Mu Qiange still made porridge, steamed steamed buns by himself, and a plate of mustard.

Ah Jin looked at the white porridge in front of him, he didn't move his chopsticks, and his face was terrifyingly dark.

Mu Qiange glanced at him, "Did you hurt your left hand, or did you hurt your right hand, or did you want me to ask a girl to serve you dinner?" ”

Ah Jin's face instantly became extremely ugly, and he had no appetite at all when he looked at the food on the table.

"A dish of mustard and a dish of wild vegetables every day." Mu Qiange, isn't the jade pendant I gave you enough to buy meat?

I wonder when His Royal Highness King Jin has eaten these hard-to-swallow foods, even if it takes a day or two, the most unacceptable thing is that it is like this every day.

Hearing this, Mu Qiange was speechless, it turned out that Ah Jin was angry because he had no meat.

She beckoned to him, "If you want to eat meat, give me silver!" "That jade pendant is priceless, but it's nothing compared to her little life.

Ah Jin glared at her angrily, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he picked up the chopsticks on the table and knocked them directly on her palm.

Mu Qiange's eyes were quick, he quickly retracted his hand, and muttered unhappily, "If you love to eat or not, if you don't eat it, if you starve to death, you can't blame me." ”

Ah Jin clenched his hands, his heart was full of anger, he didn't expect this woman to take him to heart like this.

He closed his eyes, and it took a long time to calm the anger in his heart, and he said in a deep voice, "Return the jade pendant to me." ”

"Don't pay it back" Mu Qiange picked up a wild vegetable and put it in his mouth, not wanting to refuse directly.

The thing he promised her hasn't come true yet, and now he will return the jade pendant to him, does he think he's stupid! In case he runs away with the jade pendant, who will he go to?

Ah Jin's eyes narrowed slightly, and the murderous aura in those charming eyes was enough to make people tremble, but Mu Qiange didn't even look at him, drank a little porridge in his bowl, and turned around with empty chopsticks and left.

Ah Jin was angry and clenched his fists and slammed them on the table. A soft phrase floated outside the door, "If the table is broken, you will have to pay for it." ”

"Mu, thousand, song,"

Ah Jin gritted his teeth, and Mu Qiange, who was standing outside the door, could feel the sound of him gritting his teeth.

"Something?"

"Roll"

"Obey orders!"

Immediately, the woman outside the door turned away without looking back.

Ah Jin only felt that a punch was on the cotton, and he was angry but had nowhere to come out, and he had nothing to do with this woman.

How can this be reasonable, if you want him to be a dignified king, there is no one in the world who he can't be unjust.

Mu Qiange still came to the back mountain, this paddy field pulled out some weeds yesterday, and he worked hard for a while today, but he was afraid that there would not be much left.

After a long day's work, all the weeds in the paddy fields have been pulled out, and now there are only rented buffaloes left to plough the fields.

Mu Qiange, who returned home, saw that the meal he had cooked in the morning was still on the table, and it seemed that Ah Jin really hadn't eaten it yet, so he was capable.

When Mu Qiange delivered dinner, he saw that the wound on Ah Jin's chest that had just scabbed over was slightly cracked again, and it must have been Ah Jin's too hard work in the morning.

She took the medicine from the cabinet next to her, bandaged his wound, and said expressionlessly: "The food is here, the body is your own, you can't do it yourself, and I don't raise idlers here, and you can't do any less work for you." ”

Ah Jin glared at her coldly, and then fell silent.

"Dinner is on the table, eat, have a good rest, there is still farm work waiting for you to do tomorrow."

This woman is really heartless, and he really wants to pull out her heart to see what color it is.

Mu Qiange walked out of Ah Jin's door and walked towards the village chief, she had heard Aunt Li say that the buffaloes that ploughed the fields were all rented from the village chief.

The village chief's house is not far away, at the head of the village. Mu Qiange arrived in a short time.

"Is anyone there?"

"Who, this is, it's dark and it doesn't let people rest well."

The village chief's wife complained when she heard the knock on the door, but she stepped forward and opened the door.

"Who are you looking for?"

Mu Qiange looked at the aunt who opened the door, and was instantly stunned.

Isn't this the vicious woman who beat Xiao Yang last time? also extorted a tael of silver from himself in vain. She wanted to turn around and leave, but she thought about her paddy fields, and if there were no cattle to plough them, this year's rice would really not be able to be planted.

"It's you, what are you going to do?"

Obviously, the aunt recognized Mu Qiange, and seeing this, Mu Qiange also explained her intention.

The aunt thought about it for a while, although she had prejudices against Mu Qiange, how could there be any reason for the door-to-door business to be pushed out.

"You wait, I'll ask the old man."

After the aunt finished speaking, as soon as the door slammed shut, she twisted her stout body and walked to the back room.

"Mother, who's out there!"

"Whoever rents a buffalo, Cuihua goes into the house."

The conversation between the mother and daughter in the courtyard also answered Mu Qiange's confusion.

I see, it's really not like a family doesn't enter the door. As far as Liu Cuihua's virtue is concerned, only such a mother can teach it.

A moment later, the door creaked open.

"You're going to rent a buffalo."

Mu Qiange looked up and saw that the village chief was in his fifties, his eyes were slender and narrow, but his essence flashed, and he looked like a careful person.

"Yes, how did you lease it?"

"Eighty a day."

"Eighty wen a day, why is it so expensive?"

Mu Qiange hesitated a little, not to mention whether the two acres of paddy fields could be cultivated in one day. Even if the ploughing is completed, in addition to the tax in the future, there is not much left of the remaining grain after deducting the capital.

"Buffalo is very precious in the countryside, don't say that this 80 wen is not expensive, but it is not too much to ask for 100 wen in the busy planting season."

"If you don't lease it, forget it." After the village chief finished speaking, he prepared to close the door and enter the house.

Seeing Mu Qiange's hesitation, the village chief gave the reason. He knew that farmers couldn't do without buffaloes, but it was almost past the planting season. There are fewer people who rent buffaloes, and he has no income, so now that he finally has a buffalo rental, how can he let it go.

"Alright! Eighty is eighty, and I will lead the buffalo early tomorrow morning. ”

Mu Qiange was ruthless, although she didn't like the village chief, but what he said made sense. She is now in the countryside, and if she doesn't farm, she will really just wait to sit and eat.

Mu Qiange, who returned home, took out the silver taels at the bottom of the box, and looked at the broken silver in front of her, she fell into deep thought.

When she came out of the Prime Minister's Mansion, she had three hundred taels, but she was at a loss when she looked at the broken silver in front of her that was less than two hundred taels.

It seems that you have to find a way to make money not only by farming, but also by finding a way to make money.

"In the middle of the night, what is a person muttering?"

Ah Jin has been standing at the door for a long time, watching her staring at the little broken silver in front of her in a daze, and her mouth is still babbling.

Mu Qiange looked up in astonishment, "It seems that you are really a cat, can you knock on the door before entering my house in the future." ”

"You didn't hear me knocking on the door, what are you hiding?"

When Mu Qiange saw Ah Jin coming in, he hurriedly put away the broken silver in front of him.

"I haven't slept in the middle of the night, what are you doing here?"

"I saw that you were preoccupied, so I came to see you."

Ah Jin's eyes revealed the tenderness of the tired dead at this time, and Mu Qiange was almost addicted to it.

"It's better not to walk around if your son is injured now, if you accidentally tear the wound open, you will be the one who suffers."

Ah Jin held her mouth and looked at Mu Qiange unmoved, although her words sounded caring, but they contained a lot of threats.

"Judging by your behavior, I thought you might be a rich daughter in the capital. But when I saw that you could farm and cook, I felt that you might be the daughter of a farmer. ”

Ah Jin stroked his chin with his hand, looking at Mu Qiange's slightly nervous expression, the smile on his face was even worse.

"I remember when you rescued me on the mountain, you asked me to promise you a condition, now tell me what conditions you want me to promise you?"

Seeing that Ah Jin had begun to doubt her identity, she smiled naturally.

"The condition is to take me back to Beijing, and it is best to arrange a half-official position for me."

This time it was Ah Jin's turn to be stunned, he didn't expect the woman in front of him to be so bold and want an official position without any credit. Although it is possible for a woman to enter the court as an official in today's dynasty, there is really no reward for no merit.

"I'm just a rich and noble son, that's as capable as you said, change the conditions! This can't be done. ”

Hearing this, the corners of Mu Qiange's mouth hooked slightly, "Hehe, can't you do it?" But that's all I can. ”

She had long suspected Ah Jin's identity, and before she had that jade pendant, she might really think that Ah Jin was a rich and noble son in the capital. But there is really no jade pendant that can have priceless jade except for the royal relatives and relatives.
