I became the Counterpart of the Winner in a Period Novel-Chapter 134 - 131: Her Lightning

He left at once, but as soon as he turned around, he was called by Jiang Mingyue.

She then asked if he could summon a wolf that is easy to control for her.

Jiang Mingyue didn’t hide anything from Yan Jinzhi, saying she needed the wolf to deal with Jiang Beiyang.

Without a word, he summoned a wolf for her and threw it into space, which was quite shocking.

Yan Jinzhi said, "You will definitely be able to control it."

"Yan Jinzhi!"

He had already exited from the space and left his big cousin’s house.

Jiang Mingyue had no idea that the reason Yan Jinzhi gave her the wolf so easily, without fearing her spiritual power might go out of control and thus unable to control the wolf which could harm her, was because this wolf was actually the one she raised in her past life. She had captured it from the mountains by herself.

In his past life, after he fought with the Black Phoenix’s men, he was seriously injured and woke up missing a hand, while she lost her memory and left without taking "Lightning" with her. Lightning stayed by his side until he had an accident and crossed over, never expecting that when he woke in this world, it would be Lightning licking his wounds.

Jiang Mingyue entered the space and saw from afar a big white mass lying on the fence, staring at the chickens with gleaming eyes. The chickens, which normally wandered around pecking at grain and preening their feathers, were now huddled away in the farthest corner.

Perhaps sensing something, the big white mass suddenly looked over, its eyes shining brightly, as if wondering if it should eat her.

Jiang Mingyue immediately tried to adjust her spiritual power defense, but unexpectedly the big white mass moved like lightning, leaping over the fence to her front and knocked her over before she could react. Its speed was really like lightning, leaving her no time to exert control.

Initially, she wanted to push it away or use her spiritual power to subdue it, but then she felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity from the big white mass, and it didn’t seem like it intended to harm her, as it cuddled up to her warmly.

Honestly, it felt as if the big white mass was trying to express its longing: "Wuwuwu! Master, have you abandoned me?"

Suddenly, images flashed in Jiang Mingyue’s mind—a small white mass, with a girl having her identical face holding it on a table, surrounded by hemostatic powder, anti-inflammatory powder, tweezers, and gauze. Before long, one of the small white mass’ legs was wrapped in gauze.

How peculiar!

What’s happening to her lately? It’s understandable that she sees images when encountering Yan Jinzhi, as that face easily leads people to daydream, but what’s going on with this big white mass?

Forget it, just let things unfold naturally.

Feeling its affection, Jiang Mingyue became more convinced it wouldn’t harm her.

Indeed, how could Yan Jinzhi possibly give her a wolf that would harm her?

"Do you have a name? Well, never mind, Yan Jinzhi probably wouldn’t bother to name you." After all, people summon thousands of wolves, not caring about just this one.

"You’re so white, how about calling you Big White?"

The big white mass, which was snuggling against her palm, turned its head sideways: Not good enough!

Jiang Mingyue laughed uncontrollably, feeling she could understand its meaning. No, this Big White seemed to have a spirit.

"Don’t like being called Big White?"

The big white mass solemnly nodded, making Jiang Mingyue even more assured of its intelligence.

"You move as fast as lightning; shall we call you Lightning then?!"

As soon as the words fell, the big white mass began rubbing against her more vigorously than before, showing even more intimacy.

Great, she found a treasure. I wonder if Yan Jinzhi would give it to her if she asked.

Squatting down, Jiang Mingyue seriously communicated with the big white mass.

"Remember, you can’t bite anyone else."

The big white mass whined to express its grievance, and Jiang Mingyue quickly comforted it, "If you behave, you’ll get meat to eat every meal."

The big white mass suddenly jumped up and spun around in circles. Oh my! It was too cute, she was determined to persistently ask Yan Jinzhi for it.

"Alright, it’s not time to act yet, wait for my command. Okay, why are you so clingy? I need to make dinner now."

Saying so, Jiang Mingyue walked away, disappearing on the spot, leaving the big white mass feeling quite aggrieved.

After exiting, Jiang Mingyue first went to check on her third sister, but seeing she was asleep, she didn’t disturb her. Mrs. Jiang was busy baking pastries, but not the sugar ones, these were filled with red bean paste, using ingredients from her own space.

"Mom, let me try one first."

Seeing her daughter come over, Mrs. Jiang smiled and picked a freshly baked one, "Be careful, it’s hot."

Xiao Ran was enthusiastically promoting it, "Sister, it’s super delicious. The crust is fragrant and crisp, and the filling is sweet and sandy; it’s really good."

Jiang Mingyue noticed that he and Xiao Meng had crumbs all over their faces like little blossoms, so she told them to look in the basin of water and to be careful when eating next time.

The two little ones hurried over to check themselves in the water.

"Oh no! My face looks a mess; from now on, I will eat in small bites."

"It’s just that Auntie’s pastries are too delicious. But I’ll also be careful not to smudge them on my face in the future."

Mrs. Jiang watched this whole time, looking at her daughter with even softer eyes: her youngest daughter truly has a keen heart and rare patience. She communicates effectively with Xiao Ran and treats Xiao Meng the same, a rare and admirable trait reflected in her dealings with outsiders and family alike.

Mrs. Jiang thought of Jiang Zhenzhu, the girl she raised alongside the others and even indulged a bit more because she was a scholar. But the result? Now, upon reflection, that girl was selfish from a young age and pretentious. Previously, she would wonder why her second son disliked his fourth sister.

However, it seemed Zhenzhu didn’t need the second son’s favor, preferring to cozy up to Ming’an. Yet, Ming’an never saw Zhenzhu any differently. As a mother, she believed in the goodness of her own child and didn’t think otherwise until that child stole money and left ruthlessly, realizing only then that some children are born inherently bad—no amount of nurturing could sprout a good seed.

Thinking now, Jian Jun and Ming’an had sharp insight and could discern people well.

Now looking at Yueyue, she is good to her family, and all three of her other children love being around her, eventually turning the youngest into their pillar of support. Even Mrs. Jiang herself is deeply impressed, and together with Ming’an, Xiao Ran, Yun Di, Granny Shi, and Aunt Jiao’s family, they all form bonds of friendship meticulously crafted by Yueyue.

Mrs. Jiang is extremely grateful to the heavens for bringing her daughter back.

Jiang Mingyue had no idea about Mrs. Jiang’s many emotions, for she was busy preparing the meal.

In recent days, both brothers seemed to be consuming a lot of energy, needing more food than when working in the fields earning work points.

Jiang Mingyue cooked an extra bowl of rice.

For the dishes, she made mushroom stewed chicken for Yan Jinzhi, spicy rabbit pieces for her elder brothers, took out a chunk of pork belly to stir-fry with wild garlic pulled by her third sister, made a fragrant pot of twice-cooked pork, stir-fried a plate of local vegetables, made caramelized sweet potatoes, and prepared a vegetable tofu soup—all using wild vegetables, highly aromatic, knowing Yan Jinzhi seemed to enjoy them.

Her elder brothers returned home, but Yan Jinzhi was absent, so Mrs. Jiang asked her second brother to head to the educated youth spot to check, while Jiang Mingyue grabbed a basket and left.

First, she delivered a pine roast chicken and a pine roast rabbit to her great uncle, then went to Old Liu, the barefoot doctor’s home, gifting him the same food.

Both had helped the third family in the afternoon, which Jiang Mingyue took to heart. Old Liu hadn’t had meat in a long time, immediately digging in after washing his hands. Once tasted, he couldn’t stop. Compared to Old Liu, her great uncle was much more composed, very pleased with the third family’s kindness, thinking more and more how foolish Xu Feng was.

Originally, Jiang Mingyue should have returned after finishing these tasks, but playfully, she began channeling her spiritual power. Since it had been suppressed before, she felt slightly wary.

This time, her spiritual power flowed smoothly, bypassing the educated youth area but seeming even stronger.

Remembering the day’s grudge, she gathered her spiritual power and focused it towards the old house; however, before reaching it, near an isolated private plot, her spiritual power detected Jiang Beiyang and Yang the Third.
