After the little cannon fodder was reborn, he chose the villain childhood sweetheart

As Jiang Wan expected, Aunt Xie cooked a whole table full of dishes.

Xie Jing, Maodan and the others were so happy that they stared at the table full of chicken, duck, fish and meat and were almost stunned.

Maodan asked Fourth Aunt Xie, "Mom, are we celebrating the New Year in advance?"

Fourth Aunt Xie was very happy today. She didn't make fun of Mao Dan. Instead, she said with a smile, "I'm happier than during the Chinese New Year!"

Maodan touched his head, obviously not understanding what his mother meant.

Xie Jing pulled him to the table, pointed at the braised pork on the table, and urged: "Maodan, go get a piece of braised pork, we can share it."

Maodan was also greedy, thinking that this was his own home and his mother was in such a good mood, so it should be okay for him to steal a piece of meat.

So he quietly walked to the dining table, looked around first, saw his mother and sisters-in-law busy in the kitchen, and quickly grabbed a piece of braised pork from the table.

Maodan was secretly pleased with himself and was about to run out while grabbing the meat.

When Aunt Xie came out of the kitchen to get dishes and chopsticks, she saw Maodan acting suspiciously and knew he was up to no good.

"Mao Dan! You greedy monkey are stealing food again!"

Fourth Aunt Xie's voice frightened Maodan. He was afraid that Fourth Aunt Xie would pinch his ears, so he kept running forward. With a bang, he bumped into the arms of Jiang Weiran who came to eat.

"Hello, Fourth Uncle Jiang!"

Maodan chuckled and turned to find Xie Jing to share the food.

Jiang Weiran grabbed him and said earnestly, "Maodan, when you study with me in the future, you must not be so reckless, and you must not eat anything you can grab like a child. This behavior is too rude and against the rules. It is not what a gentleman does."

Fourth Aunt Xie put away the dishes and rolled up her sleeves to go out and settle the score with Maodan, but she didn't expect to hear Jiang Weiran's words.

She stood there in shock, "Wan'er's father, what did you say? Did Maodan learn to read with you?"

Jiang Weiran nodded, "Thank you, Fourth Auntie, didn't Wan'er tell you about this? I have agreed to teach Maodan to read."

"Oh! Isn't this too much trouble for you?"

Fourth Aunt Xie was so excited that she was at a loss. There were so many good things happening today that she couldn't digest them all for a while.

Jiang Weiran smiled and shook his head, saying, "Why would it be a problem? I'm idle at home every day. Instead of wasting my time, I might as well do something to kill time. Teaching Maodan to read and write will make the past ten years of my studies worthwhile. I just hope Fourth Aunt Xie won't despise me for my lack of merit and fame."

"No, no! How could I dislike it? I'm so happy!"

Aunt Xie is really happy.

I’m happier than when I earned money this morning.

When Maodan heard that he was going to learn to read and write, he curled his lips and said reluctantly: "Mom, I don't want to learn to read and write! Reading is not fun!"

Aunt Xie reached out and twisted his ear. Maodan immediately became scared and covered his ears and begged for mercy.

"Mother, mother! I'll read! I'll read!"

Fourth Aunt Xie said angrily, "You little brat, you don't know what's good for you! I let you learn to read and write so that you can understand things and have a promising future. But you don't want to study and just want to play. If you mention playing again, I will twist your ears to pieces!"

"I dare not! I won't mention it anymore!"

Maodan quickly agreed with his mother.

Jiang Wan also came in from outside at this time. Before she entered the yard, she heard Maodan howling.

"Aunt Si, please let go of your hand. It won't tire you out. It doesn't matter if he doesn't want to read."

"Hey, niece-in-law, this!"

Aunt Xie was anxious and wanted to say something, but Jiang Wan signaled her with her eyes to keep silent.

Jiang Wan said to Maodan who was covering his ears, "Maodan, it's okay if you don't want to study. You can go to town with your mother to sell stewed food in the future."

Maodan nodded quickly, "Okay, I'll go sell the braised food!"

Compared to sitting for half a day, holding a boring book, reading with his head shaking, Maodan would rather go to the town to sell braised food.

It’s so nice to sell braised food. You can also eat it secretly, go to the town to watch monkey shows and buy small toys.

Maodan thought happily.

Fourth Aunt Xie was anxious. She was still hoping that Maodan could learn a few words and take the imperial examination when he grew up. Maybe he could pass the examination and become a scholar or a juren.

In this way, her family will have a scholar, and she can be proud in front of her relatives.

"Niece-in-law, let Maodan study. The second brother and I can handle the stewed food..."

Jiang Wan interrupted Fourth Aunt Xie before she could finish her words.

"Aunt Four, a forced melon is not sweet. Similarly, if you force Maodan to study, he won't be able to bear it. It's better to let him do what he likes."

Jiang Wan looked at Maodan who was lost in thought, winked at Fourth Aunt Xie, and said, "It's a good thing that Maodan wants to sell braised food. You have to wash the pig's offal and large intestines, and carry such a heavy load and walk such a long way to the town. If you get tired from the work, Maodan can help you."

Maodan nodded vigorously, "Yes! Mom, I will help you carry the burden when the time comes!"

Fourth Aunt Xie understood what Jiang Wan meant, and smiled knowingly, then said to Mao Dan seriously, "Okay, Mom will remember this. If you don't choose it later, be careful of your ears!"

After saying that, she called Jiang Wan and Jiang Weiran to hurry into the main room. The food was ready, so they just waited for people to take a seat.

Before the dinner started, Fourth Aunt Xie, on behalf of the whole family, expressed her sincere gratitude to Jiang Wan. Fourth Uncle Xie and the other male members of the family could not say anything nice, so they toasted Jiang Wan with two glasses of wine as a token of their appreciation.

After meal.

Jiang Wan took a nap in the afternoon and was dreaming about making a lot of money when Xie Xueling knocked on the door.

Jiang Wan got up and opened the door. The little girl looked unhappy and a little angry.

"what happened?"

Jiang Wan asked curiously.

Xie Xueling pouted and said unhappily, "Sister-in-law, that bad man is here."

"Bad man?"

Jiang Wan just woke up and felt a little dazed.

Xie Xueling pouted and said, "It was the man I met at the bookstore in town that day."

Book shop?

Zhang Caijin?

Jiang Wan suddenly came to his senses. Why did he come here?

Xie Xueling wrinkled her nose and said disdainfully: "Xueling doesn't like him. The way he looks at Xueling is full of thorns, which makes Xueling uncomfortable!"

Jiang Wan took Xie Xueling into her arms and said, "Sister-in-law, go take a look. You go back to your room."

Xie Xueling blinked and said, "Xueling should go with my sister-in-law. If a bad man bullies my sister-in-law, Xueling will beat her up!"

She waved her little fist with great power.

Jiang Wan smiled, pulled the little girl behind him, and raised his leg to open the door.

With a creaky sound, the courtyard door was opened, and Zhang Caijin's well-adjusted smile was completely chilled by Jiang Wan's pouring of cold water on him.

"...Jiang Wan! What are you doing? Are you crazy!"

Zhang Caijin was drenched from head to toe by bone-chilling cold water. When he came to his senses, his facial expression was distorted.

There was a sneer on Jiang Wan's lips that was as cold as cold water.

"What am I doing? I haven't asked you yet. Zhang Caijin, you have nothing to do, why are you here at my doorstep again? Are you here to pay back the money? Did you bring the money?"
