Chapter 55 Bureau
Jiang Cha, Huo Jingchuan and Huo Jingye did not say a word about what they did to Jiang Cheng last night.
Jiang Cheng seemed to be traumatized. He woke up on the floor of the living room of Room 304, feeling pain all over his body.
He hadn't even changed out of the clothes he had wet himself in yesterday, and the stench almost made him pass out.
Jiang Cha was sitting at the vent of Room 304, leaning her head against the wall and looking at him with a smile.
The army is no different from other places, Huo Jingchuan goes out early every day.
Huo Jingye was a little late.
Jiang Cheng was shocked by Jiang Cha's face.
"Oh, so timid?"
Jiang Cha sneered sarcastically.
Jiang Cheng had never felt so aggrieved in front of Jiang Cha.
He was so angry that he raised his hand to slap Jiang Cha.
Huo Jingye grabbed his wrist and asked, "What do you want to do?"
Jiang Cheng didn't expect that there was someone else in the house. He shuddered and kicked his toe on the leg of the coffee table, causing him to grimace in pain.
"I didn't mean to do anything!"
He felt pain and was scared. The more Jiang Cha looked at him, the more he wanted to laugh.
"What? Still want to hit me? Apparently, that shot yesterday didn't teach you a lesson?"
Jiang Cha took a step forward, and Jiang Cheng took a step back nervously.
In her hand she held a wooden stick that was thicker than her wrist, which made Jiang Cheng shudder.
"I'm telling you, Jiang Cha, Mom's next door. If you dare to do anything to me under her nose, she'll definitely be angry."
"Jiang Cheng, how old are you? And you're still trying to threaten me with this trick?"
Jiang Cha pushed the stick in front of Jiang Cheng.
"I want to tell you today that from now on, I have the final say in this family. If you dare not obey, things like last night will happen often."
Jiang Cheng bumped into the white wall.
Huo Jingsavage was tall and strong, and he knew without thinking that he could not beat him.
With these two brothers from the Huo family protecting Jiang Cha, how could Jiang Cheng dare to confront Jiang Cha?
"In front of Mom, we are still good siblings who get along harmoniously. If you dare to let Mom notice anything wrong, you will die!"
Uncle Huo was right. Since one of her and Jiang Cheng was destined to have an irritation with each other, why couldn't that person be Jiang Cheng?
The shot yesterday shattered all her fears.
The mountain that was once insurmountable to her is now nothing to her.
Jiang Cheng, nothing special!
"I definitely missed the target with that shot yesterday, but I can't guarantee you'll be that lucky next time!"
After Jiang Cha finished speaking, he glanced at the air in front of her with disgust.
"It stinks! Jiang Cheng, your good days are still to come!"
Jiang Cha's look was very intimidating.
Huo Jingye stood aside like a security guard, and Jiang Cheng dared not speak out.
His aggrieved voice lowered two degrees.
"Can you... lend me a change of clothes?"
The clothes he took off yesterday were too dirty, so Ye Surong told him to either wash them himself or throw them away.
Jiang Cheng threw the clothes he took off directly into the trash can.
There's no use regretting it now.
Huo Jingye was well prepared. He took out a set of patched shirt and pants from the house. They were gray and looked old-fashioned.
"I have limited supplies here, this is all I have. Wear it if you want, or not."
Jiang Cheng swallowed all the humiliation, hugged his clothes, turned around and went to the shower room to take a shower and change clothes.
After taking a shower, he consciously washed his clothes and hung them out to dry.
Ye Surong never looked at him from beginning to end, as if she treated him as completely transparent.
When Jiang Cheng arrived at 305, Jiang Cha was having breakfast with Ye Surong.
The steamed buns, steamed rolls and boiled eggs that Huo Tingkun brought back from the army were paired with the sandy mung bean soup that Ye Surong had made herself.
"Mom, I'm coming!"
Ye Surong only responded coldly: "Well, sit down and eat."
Jiang Cheng looked around but didn't see the three men from the Huo family.
He felt relieved.
Jiang Cha is peeling eggs.
She put the first peeled egg into Ye Surong's bowl.
There is one last egg left on the table.
Jiang Cheng was about to reach out to take it, but Jiang Cha stepped in front of him, took the egg, cracked the shell, peeled it, and threw it into his own bowl.
Jiang Cha ignored Jiang Cheng from beginning to end. After doing this, she felt even more satisfied than when she pointed a gun at Jiang Cheng last night.
She finally did something that she had always wanted to do the most.
In the family compound, none of the food on the table had Jiang Cheng's name on it.
After taking a bite, Jiang Cha felt that this was the most delicious egg she had ever eaten.
After dinner, Jiang Cheng was self-conscious and volunteered to wash the dishes.
Jiang Cha didn't argue with him.
Ye Surong continued to grind the medicinal powder. Jiang Cha sat beside her, fiddling with the thank-you gift she had made for Chief Ji.
"Mom, I'll make some cakes later. Let's go to Chief Ji's house tonight!"
"Do you have something to do with Chief Ji?"
After living in the family compound for so many days, Ye Surong has made many friends.
However, she and Chief Ji's wife were just acquaintances, not very familiar with each other.
Firstly, there was no chance to talk, and secondly, she was busy with orders for Sanbai Cream and Cleansing Cream every day and rarely went out.
"Last time Liao Birong came to our house to cause trouble, it was thanks to Chief Ji's intervention that we didn't suffer any loss. It's only right that we go to his house to thank him!"
Jiang Cha held up the string of medicinal beads in her hand and said, "Look, I'm using this as a thank you gift. Chief Ji should like it, right?"
Ye Surong took the beads and put them to her nose and smelled them.
"Ziziphus jujuba seeds, cypress seeds, Zhiyuan, Albizia julibrissin bark, Polygonum multiflorum vine, Poria."
Ye Surong could tell the types of herbs in the beads clearly just by relying on her nose. "These are all herbs that can calm the mind and nourish the spirit. I think Chief Ji will like them!"
Jiang Cheng couldn't get a word in about the mother and daughter's conversation.
When they were young, Ye Surong took him and Jiang Cha to identify medicinal herbs and memorize pharmacology, but Jiang Cheng always listened with one ear and out with the other.
He didn't learn any of the Ye family's skills.
Later, with Wang Guifang covering for him, he became even more outrageous and returned to Ye Surong all the things that he had managed to store in his head.
Now, the difference is clear.
Jiang Cheng sat alone in the corner.
No one gave him a second glance.
This is why he doesn't like Ye Surong and Jiang Cha. They both look down on him.
To be honest, no one in the Ye family really looks up to him.
Grandpa and mom just keep comparing him to ginger tea.
They say that he can't learn this, isn't serious about that, and can't do anything well, as if he doesn't have a single advantage in his whole body.
In contrast to him, ginger tea has advantages in every way.
In that family, only grandma and dad would praise him.
The only person who truly loves him is his grandmother.
Jiang Cha wrapped the dried medicinal beads in a beautiful handkerchief, and then found a velvet box for bracelets, took out the bracelets, put the beads in it, and put it in her bag.
She was very wary. With the addition of Jiang Cheng and Jiang Cha to the house, they would lock her door whenever they went in or out.
Jiang Cha's hands no longer hurt, so he can make small cakes at home.
Ye Surong and Jiang Cha both had things to do, but Jiang Cheng didn't know what to do.
He simply went to room 304 to sleep.
He didn't dare touch Huo Jingchuan's bed or anything else.
He lay on the bed where Huo Jingye used to sleep, crying in grievance.
Here, there is really no one who feels sorry for him.
Jiang Cha was beating eggs. When she saw Jiang Cheng leave, she poked her head out and asked, "Mom, do you think Jiang Cheng really wants to follow you?"
Ye Surong looked at her and laughed out loud.
"You want to trick me?"
"Are my intentions that obvious?"
Jiang Cha rubbed against Ye Surong and sat down next to her.
She beat the eggs into foam without a whisk, just using chopsticks. Her hands were sore from drinking ginger tea.
"Why do you think Jiang Cheng came to see me?"
"Why else? I can't survive in the countryside anymore!"
"In the Jiang family, no one can survive except Jiang Cheng!"
According to Wang Guifang's protective nature, Jiang Cheng is the only grandson of their Jiang family. Even if she doesn't eat or drink herself, she has to send delicious food and drinks to Jiang Cheng's mouth.
"Do you think that the Jiang family has only plundered our family over the years with that much money?"
Jiang Cha hadn't thought about this question before. "You mean, Wang Guifang still has some money?"
Ye Surong swept the ground flour into the container bit by bit.
"She must have money in her hands."
"No, let me think about it."
If Wang Guifang had money, why would Jiang Cheng be so miserable?
The first time I saw him, he was still on the street asking for money from the woman Jiang Guodong was keeping outside. And just a few days later, he followed Chu Tianze to the family compound.
"If Wang Guifang had money and she deliberately hid it and didn't give it to Jiang Cheng, giving him the impression that they were being forced into a desperate situation, then Jiang Cheng, they were the ones who deliberately gave it to us in order to get the money?"
"There are two possibilities in this situation."
Ye Surong couldn't see through these things before, but now, as an outsider, she can see things more clearly. After being enlightened by Huo Jingye's words yesterday, many things that she couldn't see through before gradually became clear in her mind.
"First, Jiang Cheng didn't know about this matter. He was also set up by Wang Guifang and Jiang Guodong. He thought he was really desperate now."
Jiang Cha suggested another possibility, "Second, Jiang Cheng knew about this, and he colluded with the Jiang family to deliberately come to you to act pitiful?"
"Which one do you think is more likely?"
Jiang Cha thought for a moment and said, "Jiang Cheng's acting skills are not that good."
Although he is bad, he really has all his thoughts written on his face.
"I think so too." Ye Surong agreed with Jiang Cha's speculation.
"Mom, how about we give him a try?"
"How do you try?"
"Tonight, we all go to Chief Ji's house. Only Jiang Cheng is here."
Ye Surong sighed and closed her eyes helplessly.
"Okay, whatever you say!"
This is really her last chance to give Jiang Cheng.
real.
