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

Xie Lan was carrying two large packages in each hand and one on his back. Fortunately, he was strong, otherwise he would not have been able to carry them.

Jiang Wan did not choose to carry it herself, but directly asked the owner of the grain shop to send someone to deliver it to the town entrance.

She bought 200 kilograms of corn, 100 kilograms of glutinous rice, 50 kilograms of flour, and some oil, salt, sauce and vinegar. For the grain shop owner, she was a rare big customer in a year, so he kindly asked the shop assistant to drive a donkey cart to deliver the goods.

When Jiang Wan passed by a butcher's shop, he bought four hundred coins of pork, both fat and lean.

Seeing her generosity, the butcher gave her more than ten pounds of meat bones and pork offal.

Pork bones and offal are things that no one wants, and the butcher shop owner is just doing a favor.

When Jiang Wan saw the pig offal, she thought of a famous snack from her previous life, braised offal.

Although she is not good at cooking, she has seen pigs run even if she has never eaten pork, so she can try braising it.

After all, there must be a long-term way to make money.

Jiang Wan bought a lot of snacks, such as shortbread, candy men, peach shortbread, mung bean cakes, etc.

A shopping trip only cost me four and a half taels.

Jiang Wan once again lamented how wealthy Mr. Liu's family was. He accepted the three hundred taels of Ganoderma lucidum as soon as he said so, and also gave her a hundred taels of money to purchase medicinal materials, without worrying that she would embezzle the money.

Jiang Wan looked at the cart full of food and Xie Lan's baggage and decided to rent a carriage from the carriage shop.

Horse carriage rental is more expensive than ox carts and donkey carts, but it is much faster than both.

It was getting dark, and in order not to worry the three people at home, Jiang Wan chose the carriage.

In the car, Jiang Wan and Xie Lan looked at each other in silence.

Halfway through the journey, Jiang Wan spoke first and broke the silence.

"Xie Lan, there is something I need to tell you."

It was pitch black inside the carriage, and the only way they could see each other's outlines was with the faint moonlight outside the window.

"……What's up."

Jiang Wan did not say that she had deceived Liu's eldest lady Zheng and Liu Chunyan, but said: "From now on, when we are outside, we should call each other cousins, not husband and wife."

Xie Lan: "Okay."

"?"

Jiang Wan had made a lot of preparations beforehand. She thought Xie Lan would ask her the reason, but she agreed so easily?

"I'll do as you say. What's there to be unhappy about?"

Xie Lan's voice was indifferent, and no emotion could be heard.

Jiang Wan came back to his senses and shook his head, "No, I'm just a little surprised."

A slight sneer sounded from inside the carriage.

"why are you laughing?"

"That's not what you said."

Xie Lan leaned against the car wall and said slowly: "We have no feelings for each other, and we got married only to fulfill the marriage agreement made by our parents. In this case, isn't it natural to hide our true relationship in front of outsiders?"

Jiang Wan was stunned. She had only said the first sentence, and the rest were all what Xie Lan was thinking.

It seems that he has no feelings for the original owner and is only doing this purely for his mother's last wish.

This was the first time Jiang Wan talked to Xie Lan about emotional matters in all the time they had been together.

On the wedding night, Xie Lan didn't ask her any more questions.

Jiang Wan took the opportunity to say, "I think the same as you do. I have been disrespectful to you in the past, I hope you can forgive me, and I will do my best to make up for it in the future. How much money and food did I take from you in the past, you can convert it into silver, and then tell me, I will pay you back."

She continued, "My father is not in good health right now, so he needs to recuperate at your house for a while. When this winter is over, I will rebuild the house and move out. No, maybe I don't have to wait until next year. I have the money now, so I will find someone to build a new house when I return to the village."

This is what Jiang Wan planned. It is not good to live with Xie Lan all the time. After all, there are not enough bedrooms in his house, and she is now sharing a room with Xie Lan.

She and Jiang Weiran were outsiders to begin with. Even though she and Xie Lan were married, they had no feelings for each other at all. Living together for a long time would inevitably lead to some sparks and conflicts.

Besides, Xie Jing was hostile to her, so instead of getting tired of each other, it would be better for her to move away.

Build a small courtyard in the vacant land next to Xie Lan's house, where Jiang Wan and her father can live together. It will be quiet and spacious, and Xie Xueling can come to visit every day. It's a good idea no matter how you look at it.

After Jiang Wan finished speaking, the carriage became quiet, so quiet that only the breathing of the two people could be heard.

Seeing that Xie Lan hadn't said anything yet, she called out, "Xie Lan, are you asleep?"

After a long time, Xie Lan's cold voice was heard in the darkness.

"Okay, as you say."

Jiang Wan was confused by Xie Lan's sudden cold attitude.

What did she say wrong?

After thinking for a while, Jiang Wan decided not to think about it anymore. No matter what his attitude was, she didn't do anything to hurt him anyway.

She walks upright and in a proper manner.

The two of them were silent for the rest of the journey and arrived at Lushui Village in silence.

It was already dark by then, and only a few households in Lushui Village still had their lights on. In addition, the weather was cold, so almost everyone went to bed early.

Therefore, when the carriage passed through the village heading north, few villagers paid attention to it.

When they arrived at the Xie family’s gate, Jiang Wan had just jumped out of the car when the gate was opened.

"Big brother!"

Xie Jing rushed out first, like a calf.

When he saw it was Jiang Wan, he glared at her with disdain. But when he saw Xie Lan behind her, his expression changed immediately and he said happily, "Brother, you're finally back!"

Xie Xueling also ran out and threw herself into Jiang Wan's arms.

"Sister-in-law, Xueling thought something happened between you and brother again."

"Silly Xueling, didn't my sister-in-law tell me that I would bring you some delicious food when I go to town?"

Jiang Wan took out two candied haws from her arms and said, "Come on, eat them."

When Xie Xueling saw the bright red and crispy candied haws, she almost smiled to her heart's content.

"It's candied haws! Look, second brother! My sister-in-law bought me candied haws!"

Xie Xueling shook the candied haws towards Xie Jing so hard that she almost broke her hand.

Xie Jing helped unload the items in the carriage and looked up a few times when he heard this.

He suppressed the desire in his eyes and said nonchalantly, "It's just a candied haws. It's not like I haven't eaten it before. You're making a fuss about it, little sister."

Xie Xueling frowned and said, "Second brother, the last time I ate candied haws was a few months ago. I have forgotten what it tastes like! Come on, second brother, you eat first."

Xie Xueling is very sensible. She never eats delicious food alone, but always shares it with others.

She held the candied haws close to Xie Jing's mouth.

Xie Jing refused gruffly, "I don't want to eat it! I don't like it, little sister, you eat it."

After saying this, he buried his head in moving things, not daring to look at the candied haws again.

Xie Xueling's face was full of confusion.

It’s obvious that my second brother likes to eat candied haws, why would he lie?

Jiang Wan witnessed the whole process, but she didn't say a word.

She joined the unloading team and gave the coachman a five-cent tip after finishing the job. The coachman was a little impatient at first, but when he saw the copper coins, he smiled from ear to ear.

After the carriage left, Xie Jing said sarcastically: "You really have too much money to burn. You might as well keep the money for your own use."
