Transmigrated into a poor peasant family, lacking clothes and food, life is hard enough, why must she also be schemed against by her only relative?
So she's not their biological child, wh...
At this critical moment, Jiang Qiao suddenly spoke up, "Oh, this person is in such a state, shouldn't we take him to see a doctor? What if he dies?"
Upon hearing Jiang Qiao's voice, Zhao Anbang slowly raised his head, carefully examined Jiang Qiao, and a gleam suddenly appeared in his eyes.
"What do you mean, sympathizing with this old man? I told you you were acting like a bourgeois lady, but you didn't believe me. Now you see, a counter-revolutionary like this deserves to die a hundred times over."
Jiang Qiao grabbed Jiajia Sparrow by the collar. "Who are you talking to? Didn't I tell you not to mess with me? I'm not someone to mess with. What's wrong? You're asking for trouble. Do you want to start a fight?"
Seeing that Jiang Qiao was about to make a move, her former companions all gathered around, saying, "What's going on? She was just having a good time with her mouth, she didn't do anything to you, what are you doing? Let her go!"
Jiang Qiao tilted her head and looked at the people who had gathered around her with a playful expression.
"I won't let you go, what are you going to do about it?"
Feng Lan, who had just finished talking to someone, squeezed over when she heard the commotion.
"What's going on? Who's trying to cause trouble?"
When she saw Jiang Qiao grabbing the person, she looked her up and down and asked, "Who are you? An outsider? Let her go! Do you know who we are?"
Jiang Qiao smiled, and that smile almost dazzled the people in front of her.
Several young men wanted to tell Jiang Qiao to stop laughing like that, saying it was really unbearable.
"And who are you? State your name first."
Feng Lan looked you up and down. "Looks like you've come here specifically to cause trouble, haven't you? Tell me, who sent you?"
Jiang Qiao snorted, "A toad yawning, what a big mouth you have. Who sent you? State your name right now! Let me tell you, I'm not someone to be bullied. Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you have more people."
Let me tell you, I'm not afraid. I'm not even afraid of death, so why would I be afraid of you?
Feng Lan just couldn't figure out who this person was; she had never heard of such a person in this area.
"I don't care who you are, let go of our comrade right now. You just want to pick a fight, right? I'll take you on."
Jiang Qiao scoffed, "You want to fight me? You think I'll just fight whenever you want? Why should I listen to you?"
The young man who had initially helped Jiang Qiao was now anxiously saying, "She's our team leader, and she has several older brothers. You should let her go."
Jiang Qiao snorted disdainfully at Feng Lan, "So what if you have a big brother? You need real skills to survive in this world. Relying on your brother? You might as well go home and continue to breastfeed."
These words made Feng Lan lose face.
What do you want?
Jiang Qiao shrugged, giving him a smug look. "I don't want anything, what do you want?"
Feng Lan brandished her fist at Jiang Qiao and roared, "I want to punch you?"
Jiang Qiao looked at the other person with a smile, seemingly not angry at all.
"That depends on your abilities. Otherwise, go back and find all your older brothers. If you don't have enough brothers, you can also call your mother over."
I don't care. Look at me, I'm not strong enough to take a beating. Anyway, if I break you, you'll have to pay for it. Think about your own financial situation. If you want to fight, go ahead.
However, we need to make this clear first. I can't let you get beaten up for nothing. If you lose, you'll have to listen to me. You'll have to do whatever I tell you to do. Of course, I won't make you do anything against your conscience or morality.
How about it, think about it—"
Jiang Qiao raised her chin, and her imposing aura immediately emanated from her, as if she were looking down at the people below like a queen.
Feng Lan was envious; she wanted to be like Jiang Qiao, but unfortunately, she had never been able to achieve that.
Considering that Jiang Qiao didn't say anything else, and that she had so many people at her disposal, if they surrounded her, it would be enough to make this girl suffer.
"Okay, but it'll be best two out of three. Don't say we're bullying people. I'm giving you a chance. Don't say that people from our compound are bullying strangers."
Jiang Qiao still had that nonchalant expression. "Fine, you draw the line, and I'll play along. Anyway, if something happens to me, my family will come after you. You can decide what to do."
Those around them finally understood. It turned out that this person wasn't much better than Feng Lan; they were both relying on their families. However, they didn't know anything about the other person's background.
So everyone was secretly calculating in their hearts. If they were ordered to charge in a moment, they would have to be careful. No one in their compound had ever bullied a girl. Besides, what if she was the daughter of a leader? Wouldn't that cause trouble for their family?
Relying on her superior numbers and the influence she still wields, Feng Lan truly disregards Jiang Qiao.
Besides, she had never heard of any leader's family member being someone like Jiang Qiao. She was certain that this person was not a leader's child; at most, they were just visiting.
He said magnanimously, "Alright, whoever loses will have to listen to the other side. Everyone can be a witness, so don't say I'm bullying anyone."
For the first round, let's test our memory skills, okay?
Jiang Qiao nodded slightly, but added, "Don't bother memorizing it. If you memorize it all day, are we all supposed to stay here with you all day? We don't have to be bound by anything, just bring it on, poetry anthologies or whatever, how about we take turns matching the couplets?" Feng Lan hesitated for a moment. There were some things she hadn't figured out yet, and when it came to memorizing, she wasn't really sure she was up to the task. But looking at the person in front of her, she felt that this sickly person probably wasn't much better than her, and it was still uncertain who would win.
“Okay—” Feng Lan continued, “For the second round, we’ll have a fistfight.”
Jiang Qiao had no objections. As for the third round, no one mentioned it. In Feng Lan's mind, Jiang Qiao wouldn't even last until the third round. In Jiang Qiao's opinion, two rounds would be enough to defeat the woman in front of him.
"Alright, you go first. Everyone can be our witnesses, so don't say I'm bullying someone, I'm just an honest guy—"
Feng Lan speaks fluently and naturally, and she really has some skills. She can respond to everything Jiang Qiao says. No wonder Song Shutian can't do anything about this woman. Just based on her ability to speak so fluently, no one dares to challenge her.
No one can guarantee that they will be completely accurate; just remembering some of the everyday ones is enough.
However, Jiang Qiao only gave her this one chance. When she opened her mouth, Feng Lan was stunned and didn't know where the words came from.
Fortunately, she reacted quickly: "You're talking nonsense. There's no such sentence at all. Where did you just say that? You've made a big mistake."
Jiang Qiao glanced at the other person indifferently, then looked at the people around her and said, "You don't lack this kind of anthology here, do you? Please go back and look it up. It's on page ninety-eight. I was referring to the first sentence."
Okay, please finish the sentence. If you don't know how, just say so. Don't pretend you know what you don't.
Soon, someone came out of the house carrying a book, opened the page, and handed it to the people around them. Unfortunately, Feng Lan couldn't answer the question.
"So, you lost this round. Do you agree?"
Feng Lan, though defeated, refused to back down, saying, "You probably won't remember the following passage either, will you?"
Jiang Qiao snorted twice. "I'm not like some people who pretend to know what they don't, like a pig with a scallion stuck in its nose, putting on airs. If I lose, I lose. You have no right to question me. If I can tell you the page number, then I naturally know it."
Let's move on to the next task. Let's finish this quickly so I can get some rest; it's really mentally taxing, you know.
