Chapter 97: I’m sorry, I’m sorry
It was snowing outside the window. But it
was very warm inside.
There were too many people.
Jiang Mianmian felt a little hot, so she took out her small bag and let Jiang Xiaoshu out, letting him walk by himself, careful not to get stepped on.
Watching Jiang Xiaoshu slide down the hem of her mother’s skirt to the ground, Jiang Mianmian’s attention shifted again.
She actually saw that family. They
were basically a taboo family in her family.
She had seen them twice.
Once they came to her house
to stop her sister from going to the capital.
Once they seemed to go out of town to burn incense, and she heard them say something about worshiping Buddha.
She was almost abducted that time.
Thinking about it, she still feels a little scared.
She couldn’t speak at that time, but she was really angry.
It has been a long time since Jiang Mianmian came here. She can now speak stumblingly and walk unsteadily.
Those two people are quite outstanding. Those
sitting here seem to be wealthy people and are well dressed.
Silk, satin, fur and other things are very colorful when squeezed together.
But they can't hide the appearance of those two people.
Jiang Mianmian thought, maybe they are worthy of being related to Dad, they are really outstanding.
Sitting there, they look better than everyone else.
Madam Jiang is obviously a wealthy lady with a good background. She comes from a famous family and has a very good family condition. She sits beautifully and has a good aura.
As for the girl next to Madam Jiang, although her face seemed a little darker than before, her facial features were the most beautiful at the scene. She looked inexplicably special. Once you look at her for a while, you can't help but look at her again.
Jiang Mianmian thought it was so strange. How could someone have such a trait? It was simply amazing.
Three views follow the facial features?
No, this person seemed to be at odds with her. Jiang Mianmian quickly closed her eyes and rubbed her eyes with her chubby hands.
She closed her eyes and turned her head quickly.
When she turned around, she saw the little boy not far away, the young master of the anti-thief, sitting there expressionlessly.
Jiang Mianmian looked over. The little boy was still expressionless and looked stupid. She thought to herself, it's not easy to be the son of a anti-thief. He has to come out to support the family at such a young age.
Her attention turned to the dishes on the table.
They didn't look like she could eat them.
She had bad teeth. She
was a little thirsty and wanted to drink some water.
But she was a little worried about the cups outside, thinking they might be dirty.
But if she licked her hands, she might be seen and it would be embarrassing.
Jiang Mianmian looked around, everything looked new to her. When she saw the bandit leader, the uncle with a mustache,
she smiled obediently. Life was not easy, and the county magistrate smiled, so she had to smile too. She didn't know how cute she was when she smiled with just two tiny teeth. Zi Congheng's expressionless face almost froze. As soon as Qiqi announced the start of the meal, he ate seriously. He didn't care if others could eat or not, he had to eat first. The others really didn't eat well, they were trembling with fear, not knowing what the purpose of this banquet was. You can't treat everyone to a meal and call your wife and daughter when the rebels are here. Those with bad tempers couldn't stand it anymore. But seeing the county magistrate carefully smiling and the densely packed soldiers standing upstairs and downstairs, everyone could only smile with difficulty. Old Madam Jiang was trembling with nervousness at first, but she recovered quickly. Everyone was nervous and terrified, and no one thought there was anything wrong with Old Madam Jiang. Jiang Huaisheng didn't expect that his younger brother Jiang Changtian was actually the guest of honor of the rebel leader. The two of them looked sympathetic to each other, and he frowned. But how can you follow a thief! If his father were still alive, he would be very angry when he saw this scene. He didn't have much appetite, just a stern face. Halfway through the meal. Finally, Xiqi Chi spoke, and said a lot of things in a very literary way. Everyone was silent. Zi Shuai's adopted son, Zi Ganjiang, spoke up: "Each family should hand over two-thirds of their property and leave one person as a hostage. When all the property is handed over, they can take it back." As soon as these words came out, the scene was in an uproar. How could this be possible? With just a few words, he wanted to take away two-thirds of their property. He was even more greedy than their county magistrate. The scene was immediately buzzing. Jiang Changtian didn't even frown. He invited him to dinner, but of course he couldn't really eat. He had prepared food, herbs, linen, dried meat, and everything he could get when Xiqi Chi brought people here. Of course, he had no money. They are all poor villagers, and it is normal for them to have no money. But they are very sincere. He offered it to Brother Ye Hang without waiting for him to speak. As for the scene, he saw his elder brother, mother, niece, Aunt Yao, and guards, and he acted as if he didn't know them. He didn't even give them an extra glance. He just talked seriously with Brother Ye Hang, and took care of his wife and children from time to time. While talking, he remembered to pick up food for his wife. Sister Xia likes to eat meat, and she might be embarrassed to pick up her chopsticks because there are so many people. When Jiang Changtian was chatting with Qi Chi, he picked up food for his wife while chatting. He didn't even turn his face away, but picked up food accurately. The wealthy families were very uncomfortable. Men and women were not at the same table, and it was okay for them to sit at the same table, but he actually picked up food for people himself. The servants should be asked to pick up food.
How could that girl be so tall, like a foreigner, without the beauty of a girl.
Jiang Mianmian is used to it.
Dad is like this at home.
Qin Luoxia's face turned slightly red in front of so many people, but she tried her best to straighten her back, not wanting to embarrass her husband. She
tried hard to act generous, but her face still turned red uncontrollably.
The old lady Jiang felt like something was stuck in her throat when she saw his appearance, and she couldn't eat a single bite.
Jiang Wan just drank a little of the water in front of her.
She is indeed a lady from a wealthy family, and it is a bit indecent for her to eat in front of so many people.
She looked at Jiang Yu, who was eating without any scruples, and lowered her eyebrows slightly. Her cousin was always so willful and brainless, and didn't know how to read people's faces.
As soon as General Zi Gan finished speaking, someone who was dissatisfied stood up to object.
"You ask for two-thirds of someone's wealth for nothing. Are you crazy about money? Do you know that my uncle is from the Military Department?"
Qi Qichi, a scholar, stood up.
He drew out the sword on his body and stabbed the man's body, making him feel uncomfortable.
"I didn't know it just now, but now I know it. I'm sorry." Qi Qichi suddenly raised his sword to kill someone.
The scene was stunned, followed by the panicked scream of the woman.
Jiang Wan was also startled, and subconsciously hid behind her grandmother, holding her grandmother's arm tightly.
Old Madam Jiang's face was pale, and she kept chanting Amitabha, Amitabha silently.
Jiang Huaisheng wanted to stand up, but was held back by the old lady.
The panicked shouting was quickly stopped and turned into low gasps.
Because the girl who shouted the loudest had a sword in front of her.
When the sword touched her skin, she stopped screaming.
But her tears could not stop flowing.
The family of the man who said that his uncle was from the military department did not dare to cry loudly, but just cried silently while holding his body.
"Does anyone else have relatives to introduce to me?" asked Qiqichi, wiping the bloody sword with a white cloth.
Jiang Mianmian sat in her mother's arms and witnessed the first scene.
She was stunned.
This uncle with a small mustache understands the structure of the body. The location of the atrium where the sword was inserted can cause death.
Thinking of this, Jiang Mianmian suddenly felt a little panicked. Her thoughts were not right. Shouldn't she be afraid? She should cry.
She turned to look at her elder sister, who was also terrified. She widened her eyes, stuffed a piece of cake into her mouth, chewed it quickly, and then looked at the fallen person. Her expression became even more terrified, and she took another piece of cake.
In her terrified mood, her elder sister ate three pieces of cake in one breath.
Then she covered her eyes in fear.
Jiang Mianmian also covered her eyes.
