Jiang Nuan looked at the woman sitting across from her. She was tall, with dark skin, a pair of big and lively eyes, and a superior demeanor.
The woman was also looking at Jiang Nuan over and over again.
The expressions in her eyes were very complicated, including confusion, contempt, jealousy and anger.
Jiang Nuan was panicked at first. She didn't expect that the person selling the falcons was actually a craftsman.
I also regretted why I was so careless, thinking that I would definitely cause trouble for Huo Tian again this time.
But after being brought here, she calmed down.
Maybe he thought that Xu Chunjun and Cen Yunchu had similar experiences, or maybe he understood that even fear was useless.
Or perhaps it was out of trust in Huo Tian, knowing that he would definitely come to save her.
"Hmph!" The woman, wearing a luxurious fur coat, stood up and approached Jiang Nuan, "I hate you Han women the most! You are like tofu, squeamish and weak!"
Jiang Nuan also saw that she was not a woman from the Central Plains.
"Why did you catch me?" Jiang Nuan asked her, "I don't know you, and I don't know what I have to do with you."
"Am I going to arrest you? You brought me to the door yourself!" The woman said and pinched Jiang Nuan's face. She wanted to see if such a creamy white and tender face would be healed by just touching it.
Broken skin?
Jiang Nuan slapped her hand away unceremoniously: "Don't talk nonsense. I want to buy a falcon. How could it be delivered to my door for you to catch?"
"Haha, I've heard that Mengta married a stupid woman, but now it turns out it's true!" The woman saw Jiang Nuan's face turned red when she pinched her, and she regretted that she didn't use more force just now.
"You got the wrong person." Jiang Nuan's eyes widened, "I don't recognize Mengta, my husband is Huo Tian."
"If you say you are stupid, you are stupid. Mengta is Huo Tian!" The woman looked at Jiang Nuan with disgust, "Don't you know how many years he has been in the desert?"
"Then who are you?" Jiang Nuan asked her.
"I am Huo Tian's old friend." The woman smiled playfully, "Our relationship is extraordinary!"
"Then why didn't you go directly to our house?" Jiang Nuan was puzzled, "Why did you tie me here? It shows that you are not my father-in-law's friend."
"You..." the woman choked and said angrily, "What do you know as a latecomer? Huo Tian has done something sorry for me, so of course he has no face to see me."
"You're talking nonsense!" Jiang Nuan immediately defended her husband, "My father-in-law will not bully women!"
"What do you know?! Huo Tian is Duke Dingbei here, but he is just a little slave over there. Without me, he would have died long ago!" The woman gritted her teeth.
"You traveled thousands of miles to kidnap a little slave's wife?" Jiang Nuan immediately asked, "Is this slave so important in your heart?"
"Haha, you're not that stupid!" the woman snorted, "He lied to me! He agreed to elope with me, but he left me and ran away halfway."
Women from other ethnic groups are not as reserved and cautious as women from the Central Plains. They dare not speak out about love.
She could even talk about elopement openly without feeling any shame.
Jiang Nuan looked at her without saying anything.
The woman couldn't help but feel proud and continued: "You know now, Huo Tian is a liar! He deceived my heart, of course I have to settle the score with him! Originally, I wanted someone to trick him into taking the bait, but who knew he would come here?
It's actually you. But it doesn't matter, as long as you are here, he will definitely find him."
"So you arrested me just to get him to come, right?" Jiang Nuan asked.
"Of course, I want to ask him why he lied to me? I also want to ask him why it was you and not me?" the woman said angrily.
"He must feel guilty in his heart," Jiang Nuan sighed, "but he must not like you, otherwise he will give you an explanation.
You also know that he is helpless and must use some means to escape. But based on my understanding of him, he will definitely not do anything extraordinary to you."
"Going further? Isn't it enough that he deceived me?!" The woman asked Jiang Nuan angrily, "What if it were you? Do you hate it?!"
"Of course I will be angry and I will question him." Jiang Nuan answered truthfully, "So I don't blame you. I just said that he had no choice but to apologize to you on his behalf!"
From Jiang Nuan's point of view, no matter what, Huo Tian could survive and escape from Mobei, and it would be impossible without this woman's help.
She chased Huo Tian from Mobei to the capital. She must have regarded Huo Tian as extremely important, so she did this.
"You...I don't like you pretending to be a good person!" The woman suddenly became even more angry, "You don't need to interfere with the matter between me and him!"
"But you have captured me now," Jiang Nuan said innocently, "We are husband and wife now, and his business is my business."
"You women from the Central Plains are so annoying! You are so sweet-talking and full of tricks! You must be pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger and get him to death!" The woman looked at Jiang Nuan fiercely, "Believe it or not, I will kill you?!"
As she spoke, she took out a dagger from her boot and put it against Jiang Nuan's chin.
"Of course you can kill me," Jiang Nuan is not afraid, and it is useless to be afraid, "but he will hate you for the rest of his life, and he will never let you go."
"It's not bad to make him hate me forever. At least he will remember me." The woman's eyes suddenly dimmed, "He gave you all this, which shows that he really loves you."
She saw the amulet worn around Jiang Nuan's neck. It originally belonged to Huo Tian. She asked for it many times and even exchanged it for something more valuable, but he refused.
"You know in your heart that he doesn't love you, right?" Jiang Nuan asked.
Jiang Nuan feels that when it comes to love or not, only unwillingness to admit it is not inability to feel it.
"I don't know, why should I know?!" The woman was very emotional, "What do I want from him? It's enough that I love him!"
"Do you really love him?" Jiang Nuan asked again.
"Yes!" the woman replied almost through gritted teeth.
"Huh, then I'm relieved." Jiang Nuan breathed a sigh of relief and pushed the dagger back, "I'm afraid I'm going to give birth. Don't let men come in this room!"
"You... stop scaring people! How could you just give birth to a baby?!" The woman jumped up in fright.
"Originally, we had to wait for a few days, but the fetal force moved." Jiang Nuan held her stomach in pain, "I'm not lying to you, I'm really going to give birth."
"You, you, you, don't do this to me. I'm telling you, even if you want to have a baby, I won't let you go!" the woman jumped to her feet.
"You may embarrass me, but you won't embarrass the child." Jiang Nuan smiled with difficulty, "I can see that you are not a bad person."
Jiang Nuan breathed in and out as she spoke. Most things in this world can wait, but some things cannot wait, such as giving birth to a child.
