Traveling back in time to a female virtuous novel, she was forced to make money to support her famil

Chapter 13 Flat Fish Festival

Ruan Jing helped up the guard who had been with her since she was a child.

"What's wrong with you? Her actions are both a warning and a threat. You are no match for her."

In fact, Ruan Jing was really overthinking, Mu Yan just didn't want to cause trouble.

It's not surprising that she thinks so. She has been in a high position since she was a child, so she naturally has a deep mind.

"You go down and rest first. We'll go meet her for a while tomorrow morning."

Although there are some clues about the investigation, she is still in the dark after all. If she really wants to lure the snake out of the hole, someone must cooperate with her in the open.

This person must live long enough, be resourceful enough, and most importantly, this person must not belong to any force.

She has been trying to find such a person for the past three years, but has found nothing.

The city is so intricate that one move can affect the whole body, so she can't take risks.

The Dongning Kingdom now seems to have a prosperous national fortune and a strong military, but these are only on the surface, and it has long been empty and rotten inside.

Queen!
This game of chess is too big. If it fails, it will lead to eternal disaster.

Saw the message on the desk.

Ruan Jing's eyes were firm. For the sake of millions of people, they must not lose.

On a winter night, the cold wind blew, the leaves rustled in the courtyard, and the young man sighed, but he couldn't resist a hint of sadness.

Half a month later, the sugar in his hands had almost melted, and the shell had long been infected by the sugar water. The boy still cherished it very much.

Another sigh.

The moonlight hangs on the tips, leaving endless lovesickness.

Ruan Yu felt like he was in a daze because he had only met him once and he was like this.

If that girl had married a husband and had children long ago, would he have fallen like this just because of a one-time relationship?

For several days, he had been staying in his yard without leaving the house.

This is not who he is.

Ruan Yu's eyes were firm, as if he was afraid that he would regret it, he peeled off all the candies in his palm and stuffed them into his mouth.

He decided to go to the lake tomorrow.

"The gate is open..."

Today is a big day, the day when the fish pond in the village opens.

[Pingyu Festival] was established by the villagers three years ago to celebrate the restoration of peace in Longcheng. It means removing dirt, good luck in the coming year, and peace every year.

Even Mu Yan, who had just arrived in Changliu Village, could get a piece of the pie.

The sound of the gate opening sounded, the gongs and drums were beating deafeningly, and everyone cheered loudly, it was so lively.

Each child's eyebrows are a little red, like a lucky doll that has landed in the world.

The village chief wore a red rope around his waist and held red silk in his hand, singing along with the music.

"The strangers lead the way, and the souls return to wherever they are."

The crowd shouted loudly, "The stranger leads the way, and the soul returns to wherever it is."

The sound is magnificent and continuous, as if it penetrates the soul.

A few short words are worth a thousand words.

Later, Mu Yan learned that the Pingyu Festival not only meant peace and joy, but was also created to commemorate the souls of heroes who died in a foreign land after more than ten years of war.

The heroes suffered so much that they could only try their best to bring their souls back home.

Knowing the reason, the lively festival added a bit of sadness.

How lucky she was to be able to attend such a feast.

Mu Yan felt like he was in another world, and the figures of heroes seemed to appear in his ears. The suffering of the people was wailing all over the place, and he could not see the way forward clearly.

"Yan Wazi, what are you doing standing there stupidly? Go grab the fish!"

Orion Wang was in high spirits and raised the fish basket high in his hand, hoping to grab a few big fish.

Fish grabbing is just the second part of the show, which consists of a female man from each family forming a team.

Whoever grabs more fish will be the fish king this year.

If there is no hen in the family, the village chief will divide the fish himself.

Mu Yan had just arrived in the village, and she was the only one in the family, so she took the stage without hesitation.More than [-] female men came down to the fish pond one after another. When the village chief gave the order, the scene suddenly became agitated.

Husbands and children shouted loudly for their women.

Mu Yan relied on his own eyesight and was far ahead in a short while.

The other women tried their best and refused to give in to anyone.

King of Fishes.

They are bound to win.

"This year's fish king in Changliu Village is Mu Yan."

When he was announced as the Fish King, Mu Yan actually felt proud.

The last item was the bonfire banquet. Each family served two dishes, and everyone sat on the floor, laughing and chatting.

This situation and scene should be comparable to paradise.

Mu Yan mentioned her trophy and stood by her fish pond. Because she was elected as the fish king, she got the biggest fish in the village.

"Fish, fish, I hope you live well and protect the land."

The fish seemed to understand her words, swishing its tail and splashing water.

"Fish can't protect the people in the village."

An uninvited guest came to the door.

A dark light flashed in Mu Yan's eyes, and when he raised his head, his eyes were blank.

"Are you a foreigner who came to Changliu Village to participate in the Pingyu Festival?"

When his eyes briefly glanced at the other person, Mu Yan instantly understood.

That person was the one who had been observing her in the dark all day.

Mu Yan remained expressionless, with some doubts in his eyes.

With his superb acting skills, if he hadn't guessed Mu Yan's thoughts early on, Ruan Jing would have been deceived by now.

"It is indeed a foreigner who came to participate in the Pingyu Festival. He came late and accidentally lost his way, so he ended up here unconsciously."

Mu Yan nodded to express his understanding, put down the things in his hands, walked to the door, and pointed to a place down the mountain.

"Go down from here. If you move faster, you can catch the bonfire party. Don't get lost, girl."

When he said this, his eyes were full of sincerity, as if he was really worried that they would get lost again.

Ruan Jing heard the implication of Mu Yan's words. She really didn't want to have any entanglement with her.

She also knew that Mu Yan's move was to drive them away.

Ruan Jing raised a smile and said, "Girl, don't you go down to the bonfire banquet with us."

Tentative.

She was testing her previous words and deeds by the river, and she was also testing her own attitude.

No one would come to someone else for no reason, unless she had another purpose.

Mu Yan couldn't figure it out. He had just arrived. He was neither from a famous family nor a disciple who had become an official. What qualities about him were worthy of her taking advantage of?
"What a coincidence. I just came back from the bonfire party and my intestines are so full that I can no longer hold anything else. I won't join in the fun."

Mu Yan's meaning is very clear. She just wants to eat and drink alone and the whole family will not have to worry about it. You can complete your game by yourself. I don't want to cause trouble.

Ruan Jing was still smiling, "In this case, we will no longer bother you and say goodbye."

After saying that, he turned around and left, as if he really just took the wrong road and came to ask for directions.

Mu Yan's eyes flickered. She had refused so simply. She hoped these people wouldn't be looking for her.

"Prince, we are not going in. Let's have a good talk with her."

Banjin is a little confused, so aren't they here just to win over people?

Why didn't they all leave before entering?

Ruan Jing held his forehead. She was a very strong guard in martial arts, but her brain was really weak.

It was her brother who was smart and understood everything at once, so she didn't need any explanation at all.

It's a pity that she stayed in Fucheng to find out the news.

If she brought people here, she wouldn't have anyone to discuss with.
