Chapter 455 Taoyao
Click.
The air suddenly became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
The men of the Jiang family:?
What what what?
"Wife, it's definitely not me. The heaven and earth and the sun and the moon can bear witness to my loyalty to you!" Jiang Wenhai immediately clarified.
Jiang Xiuwen quickly hugged his wife and kissed her: "Wife, you know I only love you, how can I have the heart to look at others."
Everyone paused, their eyes all falling on Old Man Jiang.
The old man's hand trembled while drinking tea:?
He rolled his eyes in annoyance. "What are you looking at? I married a patriarch at home, and she's always causing trouble for me. It's not enough. Why would I find another one outside? Do I really enjoy being bullied and cleaning up other people's messes?"
"Do I think my life is too long?"
Mrs. Jiang, who was happily eating spareribs with Jiang Chen, paused:!
I suspect you are scolding me, and I have evidence!
No, Wen Shan and Chu Jingchen have reconciled and are inseparable. How can she not get over it?
Jiang Xu guessed who it was: "Let her in."
After a while, the housekeeper came in with a man and a woman.
The woman's fiery red curly hair swayed gently with her movements, making her bright face even more eye-catching.
She walked in, her phoenix eyes filled with shimmering light swept around, and finally fell straight on Jiang Xu.
Her red lips curled slightly, and her voice was soft and delicate: "Master Jiang~"
She gently tapped her chest with her fingertips and leaned forward slightly. "After we parted last night, it's been burning here..." She raised her eyes slightly, with a hint of anger, "Feel it, Taoyao's chest, is it...burning?"
Jiang Yi: ...
Something is burning.
Jiang Xu: “…”
Everyone in the Jiang family: "......???"
Everyone's pupils suddenly shrank.
Oh my goodness!
The unfaithful man turned out to be Xiao Xu!
The victim who came to the door was actually a woman.
Everyone looked at each other, and no one dared to speak for a moment.
Jiang Wenhai, who usually loves to talk, lowered his head and didn't dare to make a sound.
A cluster of flames shot up from Jiang Xu's fingertips, and he looked at her with a smile.
"If you really want me to touch you, don't scream in pain."
Looking at the golden flames, Tao Yao shuddered all over and gave in in an instant.
"No, no, I was just joking."
"The spiritual energy that Master Jiang left on me last night was scorching hot, like a burning fire, and it kept me awake the entire night."
Everyone: “…”
oh.
It turns out it’s really “hot”.
Jiang Xu suddenly raised his fingertips and lightly touched her brow, and a stream of spiritual energy was drawn out from her body.
Taoyao felt relaxed instantly.
"Xiaodong?" Tao Yao turned to look at the man squatting on the ground.
Jiang Xu shook his head, and the woman understood and raised her eyebrows.
"Okay, I'm the only one tormented by love, right?"
Xiaodong was squatting in front of Jiang Chen, staring at the sweet and sour pork ribs in front of him without blinking.
Jiang Chen paused, then held out the ribs. "Do you want some?"
The man paused and looked up at Tao Yao.
A gentle smile flashed across Taoyao's face, and she nodded gently: "Eat it."
Everyone looked between the two of them with some suspicion.
Old Mrs. Jiang couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Who are these two...?"
"This is the monster in the story I told you." Jiang Yi said in a low voice.
No wonder, Old Mrs. Jiang said, why does it seem to her that the way these two people get along is not like a husband and wife, but more like a mother and son?
It turned out to be them.
Jiang Yi frowned, feeling that something was unclear, and asked, "So, are you the older sister or the younger sister?"
Tao Yao chuckled when she heard this: "I am neither Zhou Tao nor Zhou Lan, I am the master."
Everyone:?
Taoyao: "To be precise, it's the master in the story."
Taoyao was originally a peach blossom in the mountains. After hundreds of years, it transformed into a peach blossom demon.
As the only monster in the mountain, she can play when she wants and sleep when she wants, living a carefree life.
Until one day, a woman came to her peach tree crying and threw a white silk onto the branch.
This is going to hang herself at her doorstep!
Tao Yao was startled and quickly appeared to stop him.
She suddenly appeared, and the woman was not afraid, but burst into tears.
"Goddess, please forgive me! I didn't mean to offend you, I just had no other choice!"
It turned out that she didn't really want to commit suicide, but she had heard that there was such a person as her in the mountain and thought she was a god, so she wanted to ask her for help.
"My sister's death is unclear, and the county government insists she committed suicide. But how could someone like my sister abandon us and commit suicide? I beg the gods to have mercy and help me find the truth!"
Taoyao hated to see a woman cry, so he helped her up and asked, "I am just a wild monster, not worthy of the title 'immortal'."
"First, tell me in detail what happened to your sister."
That woman is Zhou Lan.
The Zhou family has always been famous in the local area, not for any other reason, but because their two twin daughters were born with delicate features, which is rare in the countryside.
When they grew up, the two daughters became beautiful and graceful young ladies.
The younger daughter, Zhou Lan, has beautiful features, and the older daughter, Zhou Tao, is extremely intelligent. She even married a scholar and has a bright future.
Unfortunately, the scholar died in an accident on the way to the exam, leaving behind an orphan and a widow.
Not long after the news came back, everyone found Zhou Tao's body in the river.
The government determined that Zhou Tao committed suicide by jumping into the river because she could not bear the blow, but Zhou Lan firmly believed that her sister would never be such a person and there must be a hidden story behind it.
However, as a woman with no power or influence, she couldn't even see her sister's body, let alone investigate the truth.
Zhou Lan burst into tears: "I can't accept this. I beg the gods to give my sister the truth."
After listening to this, Tao Yao gently patted Zhou Lan on the shoulder.
"Don't cry, I'll help you check this."
In fact, it is not difficult to investigate.
In this small place, who else can cover the sky with one hand?
It turned out that the county magistrate was attracted by Zhou Tao's beauty, and when he failed to force her, he became angry and killed her accidentally.
To the government, civilian lives were worthless, so they simply threw her into the river and concluded the case was suicide.
