Chapter 22 Who are you?



"I don't have any money anyway. If you make trouble again, you can take my life!"

Old Mrs. Zhang simply acted like a rogue. Jiang Anfu looked unhappy and sighed.

"Wanwan, look, we really don't have any money left at home. Let's just leave it at that for now."

"We really don't have the money to pay for the eldest brother's medical treatment. Since his leg is already broken, going to town won't help..."

Su Yun's heart sank suddenly.

She knew that the eldest wife had never been valued, but she didn't expect that Jiang Anfu would give up Jiang Zexing's future so carelessly.

"Also, Su Yun, you should discipline Jiang Wan. She's so bold to bring Xiao Shan to the table for everything."

Jiang Anfu looked worried, and the pipe in his hand fell on the table with a thud.

Jiang Wan looked up and met Jiang Anfu's fierce gaze.

He was stunned. He didn't expect Jiang Wan to suddenly look up. He was stunned for a moment and then restrained his expression.

"Okay, that's it. No one is allowed to mention it again."

Handle it with care, worthy of being a member of the Jiang family.

Jiang Li told Jiang Zexing exactly what was said at the dinner table today. He was extremely angry. His sister had done nothing wrong, yet he was being spoken of like that?

Jiang Zexing still maintained the same actions as in the afternoon, without moving at all.

"Dad, are you only interested in the Jiang family and not us and Mom?"

Jiang Wan stood at the door of Uncle Lin's house. Unable to bear it any longer, she opened the door and rushed in.

"When your news reached home today, do you know how worried Mother was? She's still pregnant. If something really happened to her, could we afford the consequences? Don't you feel guilty?"

"Besides, you saved my aunt today, so did you see her come to see you? She didn't even take your injury to heart!"

"Even now, can't you see clearly what the Jiang family's attitude towards you is?"

Jiang Zexing has deep feelings for the Jiang family, and it is impossible to break this bond overnight.

But now, a hole has obviously been torn open, and she wants to magnify this hole infinitely.

Jiang Zexing's back stiffened, and he spoke with difficulty, "Wanwan, Dad knows."

"You...you let Dad think about it carefully..."

next day

Jiang Wan picked up the backpack and prepared to go up the mountain.

Old Mrs. Zhang was such a stingy person that she didn't give them a penny. She could have made a big fuss about it.

But I'm afraid that would play into someone's hands.

If she had said this before, not only Jiang Anfu, but even Old Zhang would have subconsciously become nervous.

Jiang Zeshan and the others had such support in their hearts that it was impossible for anyone to slander him. But this time, Old Mrs. Zhang didn't give in, and Jiang Anfu was silent for a while. It was obvious that he had something to rely on.

As to what it is, it is not clear yet.

"Xiaoyun? Why are you here?"

As soon as Jiang Wan reached the foot of the mountain, she saw a familiar figure and was shocked.

On the contrary, after seeing her, Zhang Xiaoyun's eyes flashed with surprise, "Wanwan!"

"I'm waiting for you here!"

"wait for me?"

I know you go up the mountain every now and then recently, so I'll wait for you here today.

She raised her eyes, looked around, and found that there was no one around. Then she moved closer to Jiang Wan and secretly took out the backpack from behind her.

She didn't dare go to their house, fearing that these things would be discovered by Old Zhang and others and she would not be able to exchange them for money.

"Wanwan, I saw a lot of wild mushrooms in the mountains. No one has discovered them yet. I picked some. You can exchange them for some money to buy some medicine for Uncle Jiang."

She had also heard something about Jiang Zexing's situation. He must need money for his injury, so she thought of this.

"No, you worked so hard to pick this, how can I take it?"

Besides, Zhang Xiaoyun’s own life is not easy either, how can she be so selfish?

"Wanwan, have you forgotten that you helped me before? It's just some mushrooms, I can pick them again!"

Jiang Wan shook her head. These mushrooms were all fresh and plump, and it was obvious that they were hard to find. Moreover, there were many small wounds on Zhang Xiaoyun's hands, which was obvious that it was not easy for her to find them.

"I can't take this. Go exchange it for some money and keep it for yourself. I know some herbs that I can find in the mountains."

"But--"

"If you really want to help me, why not tell me where you got the mushrooms and I'll pick them myself."

"Oh well."

The place Zhang Xiaoyun mentioned was closer to the mountains, about three hundred meters inside the outer edge of the mountain.

At first glance, you can see that the vegetation there is much greener than that on the outside.

Under the shade of a tree not far away, there are plump mushrooms growing. Looking closely, there is a small bare area, which should be left by Zhang Xiaoyun after picking the mushrooms.

Mushrooms in the mountains are rare and expensive. Such a small piece, especially one that is very plump, would cost at least one or two taels of silver. It can be seen that Zhang Xiaoyun really wants to help her.

She took her backpack and prepared to go pick some mushrooms.

Just when I was picking half of the fruits, I suddenly heard a noise behind me.

"Who are you?"

Jiang Wan looked up suddenly and saw a man in black, probably in his thirties, looking at them warily not far away.

His words sounded a little unfamiliar, not like someone from Pingyang Prefecture.

Qingshan Village is located in Baiyun Town and is under the jurisdiction of Pingyang Prefecture.

But the man in front of him, from what he said, was obviously not from Pingyang Prefecture.

After seeing Jiang Wan, the man walked forward and approached Jiang Wan.

"Who are you? Why are you here?"
