The book has no strength, the female supporting role just wants to survive

Chapter 137 Broken, Became a Spy

There is a river next to Qingshui Village, and because it was built by the water, it was named Qingshui Village.

There are only a dozen households living in the village, so everyone is very familiar with each other.

"Aunt Liu, why have you seen Erya's mother become more generous these days? I saw her buy several kilograms of meat this morning."

A few women sat together at the entrance of the village, chatting casually. The woman called Aunt Liu had a pair of droopy eyes, thin lips, and some freckles on her cheeks.

"Her family has become rich recently? But I see that Erya's father is still working honestly in the fields today, isn't he?"

Several women nearby answered,

"I don't think her family has become rich, they are just starving. You don't know that when I passed by her house before, I saw the food she cooked, and it didn't have any oil or water at all."

"She is such a person that she can even scrape two ounces of oil out of a mosquito's leg. I don't know how Erya's father can stand her!"

Everyone laughed and guessed that Erya's mother might have finally decided to change her stingy nature. However, Aunt Liu on the side was unusually silent. Others might not understand Erya's mother, but didn't she?

Erya's mother is just like me, a person who will not do anything without profit. Something good must have happened to that woman that made her rich recently!

So while everyone was going home, Aunt Liu sneaked to the corner of Sun's house and eavesdropped inside.

On the other side, in an inn somewhere in Yuxi County, Xiao Mingli looked at Xiao Mingrui and Xiao Mingxu in front of him with some helplessness.

"I came out to do serious business, what are you following me for?"

"Liangchuan Long is carrying the Water Dragon Star Sword. It is wise for you to come here to help him in advance. However, this matter is of great importance and cannot be lost. Therefore, I have come here to lend a helping hand to you."

Xiao Mingrui's words made a lot of sense, and Xiao Mingli nodded affirmatively.

"As expected of Mingrui, he is so thoughtful."

Xiao Mingli's expression changed immediately, and he looked impatiently at Xiao Mingxu who was drawing circles on the table with tea.

"What about you?"

Xiao Mingxu's face darkened, and he said in a light tone,

"I want to go there again to look for my cousin..I don't believe she really..."

Xiao Mingli was stunned. He didn't expect that Xiao Mingxu was doing this for this matter.

It has been six or seven days since the cave collapsed. Even if Jiang Tunan did not die immediately, he would be in great danger after being buried there for six or seven days.

"Well, if you want to go, go ahead, but don't mention it in front of father."

In fact, most of the servants of the Xiao Mansion are still searching in the mountains, but manpower is limited after all, and Xiao Huaimin already has an idea of ​​what the outcome will be.

Xiao Mingrui lowered his eyes, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking. Xiao Mingli just sighed silently. This happened before he had time to ease the relationship between himself and Jiang Tunan.

The three of them were silent, each with their own thoughts in their hearts.

Now it is almost the beginning of summer, the weather is gradually getting warmer, and it gets dark later.

Old Man Sun and his son walked into the house in the afterglow of the setting sun. Erya's mother had already prepared the meal.

"What big happy event is going on today? The meal is so sumptuous."

Erya's father looked at the pork belly on the table and couldn't help swallowing.

"There are guests at home, so I want to entertain them well."

"You still have such a generous side?"

"Go! Go! Go."

Erya's mother glared at Erya's father, then turned around and said to Jiang Tunan with a smile,

"Miss Jiang, please don't despise the simple food of us country folks. Just eat whatever you like."

Jiang Tunan sat at the table, nodded with a fake smile, but never dared to be the first to pick up his chopsticks.

After seeing Old Man Sun and Erya's father finish all the food, Jiang Tunan dared to pick up his chopsticks and start eating with confidence.

No matter what Erya's mother's intention was, at least the meat was real, and she would eat it first.

At this time, Aunt Liu, who was hiding outside the wall, was so angry that her teeth were itching. This family was eating so deliciously that she was starving!

Jiang Tunan ate very quickly and returned to his room after finishing his meal. He did not stay at the table for long.

After seeing Jiang Tunan leave, Erya's mother looked at the door of Jiang Tunan's room again and again. Seeing Erya's mother like this, Old Man Sun put down his chopsticks heavily and said,

"Erya's mother, what the hell are you doing today!"

Erya's mother hushed and whispered,

"Dad, please keep your voice down. Don't let the girl hear you."

"Mother, what on earth are you trying to do?"

Erya's father was also a little confused at this moment.

"Okay, okay, let me tell you, there are a lot of valuable things in the bag that girl brought."

Old Man Sun then recalled that when he found Jiang Tunan, she did have a bag beside her. He wanted to return it to Jiang Tunan today, but was interrupted by Erya's mother.

"That little girl is cute and seems very honest. She would not do such a thing. Don't try to take her property. Be careful that the county magistrate will punish you!"

Old Man Sun would never do such sneaky things. Erya's mother had expected this reaction from Old Man Sun, so she spoke calmly.

"Dad, you're overthinking it. That bag doesn't belong to that girl at all. I think that bag was stolen by that girl!"

"What do you mean? Don't make false accusations against others."

Erya's father is a little anxious, hoping his wife won't do anything stupid.

Seeing that both of them had the same reaction, Erya's mother simply dragged the bag out.

"Look, the things in this bundle are very strange. Who would carry a gilded candlestick like this? And there is also a dagger inlaid with gems. How could these be carried by a girl?"

Old Man Sun opened his eyes wide and looked carefully, and found that it was just as Erya's mother said.

Aunt Liu outside the wall was shocked when she heard that the Sun family was secretly making a fortune. She simply found a stone to stand on, leaned over the window and opened a crack to peek.

At this time, Jiang Tunan was also eavesdropping on the other side of the room. After hearing this, she finally understood why Eryaniang exuded a strange feeling of stealing during the day.

At first, she really didn't know that the bag had come out with her. Jiang Shouyan really did do great things without saying a word.

The Sun family saved me. Compared to my life, those properties are nothing to me. If they want them, I will just give them to them.

"and many more!"

Old Man Sun picked up a bottle of medicine from his bag and carefully read the words on it.

"This is the text of Dayin!"

Jiang Tunan: Huh?

Old Man Sun's expression gradually became serious, and he continued to look for several medicine bottles, all of which were written with large Yin characters. Then he picked up the dagger and checked it.

"This style of dagger is also commonly used by the Dayin people. I have seen it on the battlefield before."

Erya's father and mother were so shocked that they were speechless.

"She...she, she, is she a big shady spy?"

Jiang Tunan: Oh no, I’ve become a traitor.

"Listen to me first..."

Jiang Tunan wanted to go out and explain, but he heard Old Man Sun say,

"I've seen this medicine bottle before. It should be the antidote for the hidden weapon used by the big yin people. This dagger looks luxurious. It seems that she is a high-ranking official among the spies!

I said that when I first saw her, I felt that she was very scheming and didn’t look like a good person.”

Erya's father & Erya's mother: Didn't you just say that he looks cute and honest?

Jiang Tunan: I am not without you, listen to me.
