Chapter 77: You can never wake up someone who pretends to be asleep
After Jiang Hongyi finished speaking, the group of young soldiers standing opposite him didn't dare to say a word, and all followed him with their heads down.
They still don't quite believe what Jiang Hongyi said, and they all think that their wives don't have that much courage.
But everyone was stunned when they arrived at the gate of Jiang Hongyi's house. All they saw were rotten vegetable leaves and dried rotten egg liquid.
"The facts are right here. Take a good look at them. Take a good look at them."
"Remember to tell me when you get home. Our whole family, including Chang Shunan, will remember all the marks on this door."
Jiang Hongyi still spoke with a stern face.
"Captain Jiang, there must be some misunderstanding. Let's go back and investigate."
A brave young soldier took the lead and sincerely expressed that he would find out the whole story.
The others nodded in agreement, "Yes, Captain Jiang, we must find out what's going on."
"Of course, I can. I also want to say one thing. Chang Shunan is my adopted daughter. If anyone bullies Chang Shunan in the future, it means they have something against me, Jiang Hongyi."
Jiang Hongyi also knew that this group of people were following him on a mission, and they didn't know the specific situation, so he just let them go back.
Afterwards, Jiang Hongyi also joined Qi Xu and the others in cleaning the courtyard gate.
The rag didn't work, so I used papaya shreds. After all the work, the yard gate went from being dirty and messy to being shiny and new.
"Qi Xu..."
"It's okay, Jiang Hongyi, this is none of your business."
Jiang Hongyi was just beginning to speak when she took over, "It's not our fault. You don't need to apologize to others."
Qi Xu knew that he was the type to take on too much responsibility, and guessed that he was going to apologize again, so he stopped him directly.
"Go back to the house, there's some rice left for you in the pot." Qi Xu naturally put his hand on his shoulder, and took Chang Shunan's hand with his right hand and walked into the yard together.
When he entered the yard, he did not see Qi Hong basking in the sun. After asking, he found out that the old man was so angry with that group of people that he was bedridden.
"Don't worry, I'll ask Luo Jingfeng to apply for a car for going out. It will probably take a while."
The old man was resting, so he didn't disturb him. However, he still found it a little difficult to swallow the food, and he couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart.
Until Luo Jingfeng came and knocked on the door again, he couldn't wait to drop his chopsticks and he and Qi Xu helped Qi Hong get into the car, and asked Chang Shunan to go to the hospital with them.
Qi Xu had other plans in mind. She wanted Chang Shunan to have a full body check-up to see if he was healthy and to be prepared for any emergency.
After the examination, it was learned that Qi Hong had liver qi stagnation and needed to take Chinese medicine for conditioning. Apart from some malnutrition, all the examination indicators of Chang Shunan were within the standard range, so Qi Xu was not as worried as before.
When the whole family returned to the yard, they saw a row of people standing outside the gate.
"Captain Jiang!"
Everyone called out Jiang Hongyi in unison and solemnly.
"What? Are you planning to stand guard at my door?"
While Jiang Hongyi was questioning him in a stern tone, Qi Xu and Chang Shunan helped Qi Hong into the room to rest.
Chang Shunan was obviously a little scared. Qi Xu asked her to stay in the house to look after Old Man Qi, while he and Jiang Hongyi came out with stern faces.
She wanted to see how Jiang Hongyi's soldiers would deal with the situation after they learned the true situation.
"I'm sorry, Captain Jiang!"
The row of young soldiers all bowed 90 degrees and apologized.
Before Jiang Hongyi could say anything, a middle-aged woman came running up from behind, panting, "What's there to be sorry about? It's because his family adopted that little bitch that our family compound has been so unlucky lately!"
Qi Xu rolled his eyes in anger. There were always people making things up. "Huh? How do you know your family's misfortune is because of our An An?"
"What evidence do you have? If An An is a disaster, how come we are still standing here?"
As Qi Xu retorted, he pinched his hands behind his back in his sleeves and immediately figured out the source of the misfortune.
"Also, your family has only recently started to have bad luck, and my An An has been adopted for a long time. You can't put this unfounded accusation on my An An's head."
"Are you sure your family's recent bad luck isn't because you picked up something you shouldn't have?"
While Qi Xu was speaking, she calmly observed the middle-aged woman who was crying out for bad luck. Sure enough, the woman's expression began to panic and she avoided looking at her.
Although Jiang Hongyi was a little confused, he believed that there must be a reason why Qi Xu said this, so he didn't say anything.
"You, you, you're talking nonsense. I don't understand." The middle-aged woman said without thinking and looked at her husband. "It's not what she said, Jianguo. Our family's recent bad luck is because of An An."
The young soldier named Jianguo was very embarrassed. He didn't expect that his wife had followed him secretly. He started to argue with Captain Jiang's wife after a disagreement.
"Captain Jiang, Sister-in-law Jiang, don't listen to my wife's nonsense. It's not true."
Qi Xu could tell from Li Jianguo's words that he was an honest man, and he had a plan in mind. "Okay, Li Jianguo, right? Then tell me, have any valuables that don't belong to you appeared in your house recently?"
This question confused Li Jianguo. After coming to his senses, he seemed to remember something, "Sister Jiang, it seems my wife picked up a jade bracelet not long ago, the red one."
"You bastard, that bracelet originally belonged to our family. How could you say you picked it up? Why are you talking nonsense?"
The middle-aged woman looked very disappointed with Li Jianguo. She pointed her finger at him and started cursing at him.
The other young soldiers noticed that the air pressure around Jiang Hongyi had dropped by several degrees, and they all lowered their heads and dared not move.
"Are you sure that bracelet belongs to your family? If it belongs to your family, don't you know that bracelet is called a blood bracelet? Don't you know that the reason it's all red is because it sucked human blood?"
"No, to be more specific, it means sucking the blood of a dead person."
"So, anyone who touches the blood bracelet will be unlucky, because it is stained with the resentment of the dead."
As Qi Xu explained, his eyes grew darker, giving the middle-aged woman goosebumps.
"You, you, you, don't try to scare me! That's an heirloom from my family. Our bad luck must be caused by that evil star from your family!"
Although the middle-aged woman was trembling, she did not show any intention of backing down or admitting her mistake when she spoke.
Qi Xu and Jiang Hongyi looked at each other and shook their heads.
It seems that this woman is hopeless. She is probably obsessed with money and is thinking that the blood bracelet can be sold for a lot of money.
What a pity, the bracelet will only rest in peace if it is buried in the ground.
"Since you said it's your bracelet, then I, an outsider, won't say anything more."
"Let's talk about the illness my grandfather got because you guys had kids come and smash the door with rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs?"
"Take a good look at the medical record in my hand. It's clearly written that the old man has liver qi stagnation. I'm afraid you will have to pay for the medical expenses."
Qi Xu knew that one could never wake up someone who was pretending to be asleep. Since she was greedy for money, he would see if she could be greedy for the money from the blood bracelet.
"Why should we pay for the medical expenses..."
"Shut up, and talk less!"
Li Jianguo looked at his wife who was still wanting to chatter, took a few quick steps, pulled her sleeves and made her shut up.
