After getting dressed, she opened the door and walked out with her dirty clothes in her arms.

Cheng Huai was sitting with his back to the room. When he heard the sound, he immediately stood up and turned his head.

His eyes touched her feet, and the next moment he turned his head sideways, his eyes darkening slightly.

Jiang Miao couldn't help but look down. She didn't notice the problem at first, but she suddenly realized it after a while.

It seems inappropriate for a woman to show her feet?

But this is really comfortable.

She simply pretended she didn't know, put her clothes aside, and stepped into the house with squeaky wooden clogs.

She grabbed the door handle, turned around and looked at the dazed man, "Cheng Huai, why don't you come in and look at the stars?"

The man pursed his lips, walked over in two or two steps, and bolted the door. However, his eyes involuntarily fell back to her feet, his brows furrowed.

Jiang Miao went back to the house and went to bed. When she saw the clothes beside the bed, she remembered that there was a hole in it. She couldn't help itching her hands and thought about sewing it now. She had forgotten it when she woke up today.

Cheng Huai entered the house and went to get the straw mat and quilt from the cupboard. He turned around and saw Jiang Miao taking her coat and looking left and right, and finally couldn't help it.

"Jiang Miao, these are my clothes." He said in a calm voice.

Jiang Miao nodded and gestured with her fingers, "I know, this dress is torn. I want to help you sew it up. Cheng Huai, is there any needlework in the house?"

Want to sew clothes for him?

Cheng Huai was stunned for a moment, then buried his head in laying out the straw mat and quilt, "No."

Jiang Miao had no choice but to put her clothes aside, "Then I'll go to my mother tomorrow to get some needlework. She should be sleeping now."

Cheng Huai blew out the candle.

Jiang Miao pulled the quilt and lay down, closed her eyes and suddenly sat up again.

Cheng Huai, who had just laid down, also opened his eyes. He looked on the bed in the darkness and saw Jiang Miao lying down again, so he closed his eyes and slept peacefully.

Jiang Miao turned sideways, pinched her right arm with her left hand, and frowned involuntarily.

My mother was really right. Her hands really started to hurt at night, and they were sore and swollen. It was really ecstasy.

She obviously hasn't kneaded the dough for long, why is she so useless?

"What's wrong?" Cheng Huai got up from the ground and walked to the bed.

Jiang Miao pursed her lower lip, probably because she accidentally made a sound that disturbed him.

She pulled the quilt without moving, "I'm fine, Cheng Huai, go to bed quickly."

Thinking that his mother said that Jiang Miao was also helping when making buns in the afternoon, Cheng Huai roughly guessed, "Hands hurt?"

Jiang Miao quietly rubbed her arm for a moment, then turned to look at him, curious as to how he could guess it all at once.

Cheng Huai sat down beside the bed, "I'll rub it for you."

If I don't rub it loose for her, I'm afraid she won't be able to fall asleep tonight by turning from side to side.

Jiang Miao didn't hesitate. She sat up and stretched out her hand from the quilt, "Brother Cheng, just rub your right arm for me and it will be fine. The left one doesn't hurt much."

Cheng Huai held her right wrist and groped her arm for a while, then started to massage her vigorously, up and down, for a long time, and the feeling of comfort spread to her limbs little by little.

Jiang Miao pursed her lips and had to admit that Cheng Huai's technique was really good.

In the quiet room, there was only the sound of breathing and the friction of cloth. Looking at the black shadow in front of her, Jiang Miao couldn't help but break the silence by speaking out.

"Cheng Huai, my arm doesn't hurt anymore."

He stopped for a moment, put down his right hand, then grabbed her left hand and pressed it.

It seems impolite to refuse.

Jiang Miao turned sideways and simply continued to enjoy it. She opened her mouth and praised: "Cheng Huai, you are such a good man."

Cheng Huai: "..."

After quickly squeezing her hand, Cheng Huai stepped away and lay back on the straw mat on the ground, his fingers burning.

She is a woman, how dare she say anything.

After squeezing it off guard, Jiang Miao moved her hands and found that it really didn't hurt much anymore.

This man's method is quite magical and effective.

"Thanks."

Drowsiness hit her, she yawned and fell asleep soon.

The next day, Jiang Miao was woken up very early by Cheng Huai. Thinking that she could go to town today, she instantly became energetic and got out of bed to wash up.

Cheng Huai tied up all the big rabbits he caught yesterday and carried them in one hand. In the other hand was a small basket containing Yu Ying's hot pickled buns.

Yu Ying ate steamed buns and drank porridge, "Miao girl, come here, mother wants to tell you something."

"Mom, what's going on?" Jiang Miao ran over.

Yu Ying handed her the small black cloth bag that he had prepared, "You and Cheng Huai will sell the bun rabbit later, and the money will be put here. When you come back, buy a pound of pork, and then see if there are any big pig bones. Let's go together."

Buy it back."

Jiang Miao took the small bag and said, "Mom, I've written it down."

"Take two more pieces of cloth with bright colors and bring them back to my mother to make clothes for you."

"Mom, I don't need it."

Yu Ying lowered her head to take a sip of porridge and gave her an angry look: "Then you buy it and I'll make the clothes myself."

This girl has been changing clothes since she entered her house, and the other one she gave her when she fell into the water.

The clothes don't look good on her at her age, so I still need to make her a pair of clothes to make her look better.

Cheng Huai walked over and looked at Jiang Miao who was about to speak, "Let's go."

"Mom, let's go first."

"Go ahead and come back early." Yu Ying nodded and continued eating steamed buns and porridge.

The light in the morning was still slightly bright, but it was foggy and there was no sun. Chickens were crowing and dogs were barking in the village. Many villagers had already gone out to work in the fields.

Jiang Miao stuffed the small bag into her waist trouser pocket and just touched it. There seemed to be two stone-like things inside, which should be broken silver.

Unexpectedly, Yu Ying would directly leave such an important matter as taking care of money to her, so naturally she couldn't live up to the other party's trust, which also showed that Yu Ying really regarded her as a family member.

Jiang Miao walked slowly, but Cheng Huai suddenly reached the front. She immediately chased after her, just like a little daughter-in-law.

"Cheng Huai, how much does one of our steamed buns cost? Where are the rabbits? How to sell them?" Now that she has taken over the money-making job, she is still very serious.

Cheng Huai slowed down his pace and lowered his eyes to look at her curious expression, "Steamed buns cost one penny, and rabbits cost thirty-five cents per catty."

Jiang Miao nodded and took note, then asked: "Then do they bargain when buying rabbits?"

Unexpectedly, she still understood this, Cheng Huai replied slowly: "Sometimes."

After asking this question, Jiang Miao felt confident.

For things like steamed buns, one penny is the lowest price, but there are few people selling rabbits, and most people can't catch them these days, and they are wild products, so the price can be higher.

However, bargaining should be common. After all, there is no fixed price, and there are not many people who can afford rabbits. No one can guarantee that you will meet such people a few times a day. If you miss it, it may not be easy to sell.

out.

When they arrived at the entrance of the village, Uncle Li was sitting on an ox cart and shouted, "Boy Cheng, we are hunting rabbits and selling them in the town! Do you want to take the ox cart?"

Cheng Huai stopped, glanced at Jiang Miao, who was not walking fast, and walked to the right towards the bullock cart.
