I was born to be a supporting role

Chapter 15 Is This A Joke?
And there is a family under the jujube tree, the door is locked.

There was dust on the door, which made it all look rundown.

But at this time, Ju Ming and Bai Mudan couldn't help being picky.

The furnishings in the room were still there, including bedding and beds, but they were also very messy.

Moreover, mice appear from time to time, and various spiders and small bugs are everywhere, crawling around.

The frightened Bai Mudan screamed and jumped outside the house.

Ju Ming also felt that he had nowhere to go.

Fortunately, there are several stone benches in the yard.

Ju Ming found something to clean and wipe a little.

This gave the two of them a little place to rest.

But after sitting down, Zhu Ming and Bai Mudan were a little embarrassed.

Although from this morning to the present, the two of them have basically been together and experienced many things together.

But in fact, the two of them didn't say a few words.

Even Bai Mudan didn't even know Zhu Ming's name.

Bai Mudan also didn't explicitly say her name. Ju Ming still knew it from the system.

"My son..."

As soon as Bai Mudan opened her mouth, she was interrupted by Zhu Ming.

"Miss Peony, don't be so polite, just call me Ju Ming."

This was the first time that Ju Ming introduced himself.

But Bai Mudan heard something different.

Zhu Ming, Zhu Ming.

Those who dare to name it, no matter in the previous dynasty or today, are extremely bold.

If the court finds out, it will definitely be death.

Who in the average person would come up with such a name.

Could it be that Ju Ming is related to the former royal family?

But in this era, being a member of the former royal family is not an honorable status.

Once caught, the body will be cut into thousands of pieces, and the people around him will also be implicated.

Bai Mudan felt that this name must be a fake name, at least not her original name.

But if Ju Ming dared to use this name, he must be an important figure in the anti-Qing movement.

Bai Mudan didn't dare to think about it, and she didn't want to think about it.

But Zhu Ming dared to tell himself, it shows that Zhu Ming believes in himself.

Some things need not be said to be very clear, but misunderstandings arise in this way.

Bai Mudan was quite moved at this time.

However, Bai Mudan still did not directly address Zhu Ming by his name. In ancient times, it was very impolite to call him by his first name.

"Thank you, Peony, for saving my life."

Ju Ming coerced Bai Mudan before, which can be said to have temporarily freed Bai Mudan from suspicion.

It would be no exaggeration to say that it was a life-saving grace.

"Why should Miss Peony be so polite? It's me who has caused trouble for the girl."

Bai Mudan shook her head.

"Young master, why do you have to excuse me, I am also a person who can't be tolerated by the thieves, so why talk about getting involved."

Bai Mudan's words surprised Zhu Ming.

Bai Mudan was also a little dazed, judging from Zhu Ming's reaction, it seemed that she really didn't know.

Didn't the other party come here premeditatedly?Not to coerce yourself?
But how come the other party can call him by his name as soon as they meet, and even knows his original surname.

At this moment, Bai Mudan was full of doubts.

"Don't you know who I am?"

Zhu Ming shook his head and smiled wryly.

"I just met Miss Peony for the first time."

Speaking of this, Bai Mudan fully understood that she really misunderstood Zhu Ming.

At this time, Bai Mudan's last grudge against Ju Ming disappeared.

Bai Mudan even forgot to ask Zhu Ming why he could call her by her name as soon as they met.

When a woman believes in a person, she really believes unconditionally.

Even the most obvious loopholes will be ignored.

"My grandfather resisted the order to shave his head, and in the end the whole family was killed by Qing thieves. I also escaped death because my mother was stuffed in a pile of firewood while I was asleep."

Bai Mudan completely opened her heart at this time.

These words have always been pressed in her heart, and since she knew her life experience, she has never mentioned it to anyone.

And he was very cautious, lest anyone find out about it and he would be killed.

Some things will turn into heart problems if you keep them in your heart for a long time.

Ju Ming didn't speak, just listened quietly.

He also knew that what Bai Mudan needed at this time was not to ask, but to listen.

Bai Mudan briefly talked about her life experience.

When people open their hearts, it is easy to reveal the secrets buried deep in their hearts.

What should be said, what should not be said, everything has been said.

And this kind of talk can easily bring the relationship closer.

But for Ju Ming, there is nothing to talk about about himself.

And even if she told her, Bai Mudan would not believe it.

"I'm not really from this world."

Zhu Ming sighed and said such an ambiguous sentence.

In modern times, everyone understands this.

But in Bai Mudan's ears, it has a different meaning.

The country was ruined and the family was destroyed, and the life experience was miserable. For the hatred of the country and the family, she broke with her past self, and even changed her original name.

Not a person from this world, but to draw a clear line with the thieves.

At this moment, Bai Mudan thought a lot about it.

It also moved Bai Mudan very much.

Tragic characters naturally arouse sympathy.

At this moment, Ju Ming suddenly became extremely majestic in Bai Mudan's heart.

As the night deepened, the sky gradually became cooler.

Zhu Ming stood up suddenly, took off his monk robe, and put it on Bai Mudan's back under Bai Mudan's astonished eyes.

Bai Mudan's face turned red, and she felt her heart beating.

It's an experience like never before.

Fascinating, frightening.

But Zhu Ming didn't have this kind of consciousness, and he was still talking about some interesting things casually.

Although Bai Mudan couldn't understand at all, she still listened with fascination.

Before I knew it, it was morning.

When the sky becomes faintly white.

Zhu Ming suddenly said, "Miss Peony should go back."

Bai Mudan was taken aback, looked at the sky, and instantly understood what Ju Ming meant.

The gate of the city was closed last night, so she can justify not going back, and there are those yamen servants to testify.But if you don't go back at dawn, how can you explain it.

"Sir take care."

This night may be the most relaxing night for Bai Mudan since he can remember.

I said a lot without realizing it.

Don't worry about it at all.

The grievances, worries, unhappiness, and frustrations that had been buried in my heart were all revealed.

The whole person feels a lot lighter.

Bai Mudan got up to leave, but the village was still silent, and there was no one in sight.

Bai Mudan locked the door directly from the outside in order to prevent people from discovering the abnormality.

At this time, at the Yangzhou County Government Office, Magistrate Liu scolded all the government officials.

What happened last night, a few yamen servants had their own selfish motives, and since it was only two rogues who reported it, there was no clue at all.

If you report it when the time comes, but there is no progress, wouldn’t you be making yourself unhappy?
In addition, Weijiazhuang suddenly caught fire behind.

This made these yamen servants feel that things must be gone.

But after all, it involves rebels, so we have to go through the motions.

Otherwise, if it is tracked down later, it will not be too much to eat.

In fact, the remaining dozens of government officials didn't know the inside story at all, and were just brought there on the pretext of the fire in Weijiazhuang.

As a result, Zhu Ming was caught, but was intercepted halfway.

Not only were the prisoners lost, but four yamen servants were also killed and one was seriously injured.

Bantou Wang had a high fever since midnight last night, and he is still unconscious.

It’s hard to say whether he can survive it.

Naturally, it was impossible not to report such a big thing. After County Magistrate Liu heard about it, his first reaction was that these government officials were joking.

But do a group of yamen servants dare to make such a joke with a genuine county magistrate?

Magistrate Liu felt extremely desperate.

These yamen servants are really bold.

But whoever makes him the chief officer, if these subordinates cause trouble, he has to deal with the aftermath himself.

Even if I go to tell the magistrate now that I don't know, the magistrate will not believe it.

Hey, a bunch of bastards, this is trying to screw me to death.

In other places, county magistrates can also be regarded as parent officials.

But in this city of Yangzhou, there are not only Fu Yamen, but also Daotai Yamen.

County magistrate Liu is a little daughter-in-law, not only her mother-in-law, but also her mother-in-law.

The county magistrate himself is purely a decoration, and his role is to take the blame, and he is completely a doormat.
