Quick Wear: She Became the Beloved of the Short-lived Male Supporting Character
Chapter 129: The Cannon Fodder Male Supporting Character in Farming Literature (12)
He stood up following the force in her hand and pointed at the rabbit in her hand, hoping that she would not be angry with him for the sake of the rabbit. He knew he was wrong.
Jiang Wan put the tied rabbit at her feet.
"What's wrong with the rabbit? I didn't ask you to come find the rabbit. Don't look at me with such pitiful eyes. I'm telling you, I won't be soft-hearted this time. I'm very angry..."
As she spoke, her voice became tearful and she was choked with sobs and unable to speak.
The person who had been trying to gain her forgiveness by pretending to be pitiful suddenly panicked. He wanted to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, but when he saw his hands were covered in mud, he quickly retracted his hand.
Seeing him like this, Jiang Wan knelt down beside him and hugged him tightly, saying angrily: "Do you know that besides being angry, I am also very worried! On the way here, I was thinking about what would happen if you got lost in the woods, what if you encountered a wild animal, how scared would it be for a person who wakes up crying in a dream to face danger alone? If no one is by your side, would you cry?"
When Seventeen heard her say this, tears welled up in his eyes. He forced himself to swallow his tears and gently stroked her hair to comfort her.
He will never do that again.
From now on, no matter where I go, I will tell her and won’t let her worry anymore.
After a long while, Jiang Wan finally let go of him and stood up. She wiped her wet eyes with her sleeve, turned her back to him and said coldly, "Let's go back."
Seventeen quickly followed her, holding the rabbit.
He tried to get her to talk to him along the way, but she refused to pay any attention to him.
Seventeen prepared the meal and brought it to her, but she just ate in silence.
After he finished washing the dishes, he quickly poured her some tea and took out all the bedding in the room to dry in the sun.
He was busy running around.
After each task, he would look at Jiang Wan to see if she had calmed down. Seeing that she was still sullen, he would continue to look for work to do.
He walked up to her carrying a wooden bucket and indicated that he was going out to fetch water.
Jiang Wan glanced at him and said, "Sit down."
He immediately dropped the barrel and sat opposite her, with his hands on his knees, staring at her without blinking, looking as obedient as possible.
"Let me ask you, have you learned your lesson this time?"
He nodded.
"Will you go hunting again in the future?"
Shake his head.
"Do you have any objection to me selling that rabbit?"
Just as he was about to shake his head, he remembered something and quickly indicated that the rabbit was not for sale but for her to eat.
"It seems that you have a lot of opinions." Jiang Wan raised her eyebrows.
He shuddered and shook his head.
In the end, the rabbit ended up being sold at the market. A fat rabbit weighing three or four pounds was sold for forty-six cents.
However, the coarse noodles and brown rice bought with the money were enough to last for a while. Jiang Wan also used her savings to buy some seasonings for the family, and before leaving, she cut a few feet of cloth to make underwear for the two of them.
The style of the undergarment didn't matter and it was easy to make. She only spent half an hour on it every day after lunch, and in three days she had finished the undergarments for both of them.
She gave it to Seventeen and told him that this was the New Year's gift prepared for him. He kept it like a treasure and planned to wear it on the first day of the New Year.
In the spring of the new year, a few chickens were raised in the yard and a small vegetable garden was opened. Seventeen was busy with feeding the poultry and growing vegetables, and he enjoyed it. The first thing he did after getting up every day was to feed the chickens and take care of the small vegetable garden.
Jiang Wan went to the town to find a job, but the wages were so low that she worked as a maid in an embroidery workshop. She was said to be able to learn a skill, but she was not paid even a penny.
After much thought, she decided to make some simple snacks to sell. When she inquired about the market, Jiang Wan realized something.
Perhaps she is not the only time traveler in this world.
There are people selling braised food on the roadside.
There were spicy flavors, five-spice chicken heads and chicken feet, and some braised pig offal. Jiang Wan bought some to get a taste, and at this moment she realized that she could no longer run this snack shop.
She ate half and gave the remaining half to Seventeen.
Jiang Wan was so absorbed in her thoughts that she didn't notice the dazed look on his face while he was eating the chicken liver.
After asking around, she found out that these skills were learned from other places, and she heard that even in Beijing the business was very booming.
She had dealt with the restaurant owner before and asked about the braised food. The owner told her that their small place was not very conspicuous. He had been to Tianyun Mansion before and saw something new there.
Many shops he had never heard of opened up, including hot pot restaurants and beauty salons, all of which used skills learned from the capital.
He was planning to go to the city to learn these tricks and add some new things to the restaurant.
Cooking was not Jiang Wan's forte, and if she did it, it was just for the sake of novelty. But now, the things she knew had become commonplace, and there was no point in following the trend.
However, Jiang Wan still planned to see the outside world and see how the world has developed in places she didn't know about.
If this matter is to be put on the agenda, there must be enough money.
The little bit of silver she had was just enough for food and drink, and could support her in living an ordinary life for a long time, but it was definitely not enough to follow the caravan and broaden her horizons.
Seventeen knew that she wanted to go out and was worried about the money, so she took out all the pearls she had saved and gave them to her.
If you use his pearls, you have to take him with you.
Jiang Wan stared at the pearls in a daze.
Indeed, if she wanted silver, the simpler and more convenient way would be to sell these pearls for silver. Without any capital, it would make money faster than any small business.
As long as Seventeen cries three times a day, they will soon be able to live a life without worries about food and clothing.
Seventeen saw that she was in a daze, so he pinched himself and let the tears fall.
He gestured with his hands to tell her that it was okay to sell the pearls. He was very good at crying and could cry out a lot of pearls in a short time.
She didn't need to worry, he didn't cry outside, he only cried in front of her.
Jiang Wan picked up the pearls and returned the whole box of pearls to him.
She pinched his smooth and delicate cheeks and spoke sweet words: "Pearls are not treasures. The real treasure is you. As long as you are here, pearls will exist forever. If I take you to the capital where the rich and powerful are everywhere and sell you, can I exchange you for ten thousand taels of gold? From now on, I will wear brocade clothes and silk skirts, and have endless delicacies from land and sea."
He knew she was joking, but he still shrank back in fear, blinked his wet eyelashes, and squeezed her hand while smiling at her ingratiatingly.
Jiang Wan touched his head and said, "Don't worry. Since I know it's a great treasure, how can I bear to sell it? I will hide you and the pearls, too."
A bright smile slowly spread across his lips.
Seventeen's hands kept moving, telling her that there was no need to hide the pearls, as there was no point in keeping them.
I gave it to her willingly.
He knew that he was not smart enough and that he always meant well but ended up doing bad things, so that was the extent of his role.
