Chapter 213: Prelude to Parting



Xiao Guo heard a lot about Li Zhaodi's subsequent situation from Yang Dasao. To sum it up, Li Zhaodi and Chou Tuozi were driven out of Taohua Village by the village chief. They were not even allowed to return home and were thrown out of the village entrance. Even their household registration was wiped out. The chief also said that if the two dared to sneak into the village, they would be reported to the police.

The villagers were all pleased with this result, and said they would monitor the two men and beat them if they were seen in the village!

Regarding this result, Xiaoguo simply said that it is his own fault.

Li Zhaodi's matter has come to an end, but Xiaoguo still has a question that has no answer to this day.

"Will you tell me?"

Xiaoguo pestered Jiang Shanhe for the answer for the fifth time, but Jiang Shanhe deliberately didn't tell her.

Jiang Danhe was grinding the bean flour slowly, shaking his head calmly, but saying nothing.

Xiaoguo looked at the man grinding the beans and her teeth itched with anger. She got so angry that she threw the dried soybeans in her hand into the black beans.

"You can grind it slowly by yourself. I need to pack the black bean flour and yellow bean flour separately."

After saying that, Xiaoguo maliciously stirred it. The yellow beans were just floating on the surface at first, but after being stirred, they were completely merged with the black beans underneath.

The prank was successful, Xiao Guo smiled secretly, stood aside with his hands on his hips, wanting to see Jiang Shanhe's helpless look.

But the ending disappointed her. Jiang Shanhe just looked at her with a smile, then really sat down and patiently divided the yellow and black beans. That smile seemed as if he was laughing at Xiaoguo being an ignorant child.

Jiang Shanhe was a big man sitting on a small stool, carefully searching for yellow soybeans among the black beans one by one. Xiaoguo suddenly felt that he was a bit pitiful, and a strong sense of guilt surged in her heart.

Jiang Shanhe looked as if he was accusing Xiaoguo of bullying him, which made Xiaoguo want to apologize to him and pick up the trash with him.

Just when guilt was about to defeat Xiaoguo, the door suddenly rang. Xiaoguo came to his senses, put down the soybeans he had picked up at some point, and went to open the door without even looking at Jiang Danhe.

Jiang Shanhe smiled secretly, Xiao Guo was really funny.

"Zhuangzhuang?" Zhuangzhuang went out to play with Xiaohu after breakfast in the morning. It seemed like it was time for him to come back.

Xiaoguo opened the door while calling his name. Why is this kid knocking on the door? He could just come in directly.

"You kid..."

"Hello, ma'am."

Before Xiaoguo could finish her words, she found that there was a stranger behind the door, who called her "Madam".

"Who are you?"

Xiao Guo looked carefully at the man at the door. It was not that he was completely unfamiliar with this man, because he had seen him just the day before. It was this man who had confronted Li Zhaodi.

"Hehe." The man who came was completely different from the one I saw that day. At this moment, he opened his mouth wide, showing two rows of white teeth, and pointed behind Xiao Guo, "Looking for the general."

As soon as the title came out, Xiaoguo guessed the identity of this person. There must be no one else here who knows Jiang Shanhe's identity except his people.

"Jiang Shanhe, someone is looking for you."

Xiaoguo stepped aside to let the man in. Since this man had a relationship with Jiang Shanhe, he must have been performing that day, right?

When Jiang Shanhe heard the noise, he looked up at the person who came without saying a word, and continued to distribute the soybeans in his hands.

Xiaoguo came over and pulled him up, "Stop picking it up, let me do it."

As he said this, he gestured to the man standing next to him, blinked, and said: I'll explain it to you in detail later.

Jiang Shanhe pursed his lips and smiled. He knew that Xiaoguo had a good brain and could guess the general situation at a glance. He then gave the visitor a look and led the way into the house. The man nodded to Xiaoguo first, and then followed him into the house.

Looking at the beans in the pot, Xiaoguo sighed. There was nothing he could do. He had to pick up the beans he threw away himself.

Jiang Danhe came into the house and stood by the window, looking at Xiaoguo picking beans outside. "How is it?"

"After the two men left the village, Li Zhaodi wanted to go to Qinzhuang to seek refuge with her mother's family, but our people went there early to spread the news. It is estimated that before she entered the village, Li Zhaodi was beaten out. Chou Tuozi followed Li Zhaodi after leaving the village. He followed her wherever she went. They even fought over this matter. Yesterday, Li Zhaodi suddenly became possessed and walked towards the county. Because she had no money, she walked on foot. As soon as she arrived at the county town, she was arrested by the police and imprisoned on the charge of being disheveled."

The man finished his words in one breath, then lowered his head, waiting for Jiang Shanhe's next instruction.

Jiang Shanhe didn't show any emotion at all, he just glanced at the person behind him with a bored look, "Just watch it."

The man shuddered, and realized what the look just now meant. It was dissatisfaction...

"What does it mean to be worse off than dead?"

Jiang Shanhe said this slowly after a while. After hearing this, the man immediately wanted to kneel down. It seemed that his handling did not achieve the result the general wanted, "General..."

"Thank you for your hard work that day. I will have to work harder in the future."

Jiang Shanhe seemed unaware of the man's emotions and just spoke to herself.

The man nodded and said firmly, "Please rest assured, General!"

Jiang Shanhe did not embarrass him. Seeing that he was still kneeling, he said, "Stand up."

"yes!"

The man stood up and saluted to Jiang Shanhe, preparing to leave. However, as soon as he turned around, he remembered something and looked at him hesitantly, "General, there is a letter from the capital. We have been delayed for too long."

Jiang Shanhe looked at Xiaoguo in the yard with a look of reluctance in his eyes, "Yeah..."

The man couldn't guess what the general was thinking with his back to him, so he could only wait quietly for the next sentence.

"Get ready, the day after tomorrow."

Even though Jiang Shanhe was extremely reluctant, he was helpless. Time was indeed running out and the man was also turning a blind eye. It would be unacceptable to delay any further.

Xiaoguo seemed to have noticed something and turned around, just in time to see Jiang Shanhe's fleeting thoughts. Before she could see clearly, the man put on a smile.

She snorted at him, then turned around and continued to share the beans. There was no point in laughing, as she would have to give him an explanation later.

Jiang Shanhe looked at the angry figure's back and couldn't help laughing out loud. The man behind him raised his head quietly after hearing it, and looking at the smiling face, he was shocked and couldn't help shaking, then quickly lowered his head.

After everyone left, Jiang Shanhe naturally took the beans and started to grind them into flour. Xiaoguo kept asking him about the inside story, and Jiang Shanhe finally told her the inside story after being pestered by her.

That day, Jiang Shanhe found his subordinates and asked them to find the man who was going to slander Xiaoguo in Li Zhaodi's plan, and then beat him up. After hearing the content of the slander, Jiang Shanhe lost control and beat him up again, resulting in the man losing half his life. Then he asked his subordinates to pretend to be that man and use the slanderous words against Xiaoguo on Li Zhaodi exactly. As for why Li Zhaodi and the other two confessed so easily, Jiang Shanhe explained that the two of them took the special sleeping pills and truth powder produced by the Ministry of Justice.

When Xiaoguo heard the name of such a powerful medicine, she felt a little excited. Although she didn't often encounter such bad things, just in case, if she had such a powerful medicine in her hands, she would be able to put her mind at ease.

So, Xiaoguo tried to find out whether he was still there, but Jiang Shanhe didn't know whether he really didn't hear her or was just pretending, he just didn't say anything. Xiaoguo was so angry that she gave up and decided to rely on herself.
