Chapter 4: Beijing, it has not been so lively for a long time



Jiang Li's words made Jiang Sheng clench his fists. He said word by word with a dark face: "Do you know what you are talking about?"

Zhou also knew that this marriage could not be cancelled. The old man of the Qin family was determined to marry the eldest daughter of the Jiang family. Even if it was a marriage of exchange, the engagement had to be done in the name of Jiang Li.

Thinking about it, his expression changed, and he stepped forward and said with a smile: "That's right, Miss. Although the Jiang family is not a famous family, it is still a wealthy family. Miss, you should think clearly. Once you leave this family, the family's money will have nothing to do with you."

"From now on, you won't even be able to afford steamed bread, let alone delicious food and drinks."

"Be good, listen to your mother and apologize to your father right now. We will just pretend you never said anything."

Zhou used both coaxing and threats to try to make Jiang Li give up.

Jiang Li shook his head and laughed, "You're saying it as if I can live comfortably if I stay in the Jiang family."

"Zhou, if you don't want to be a stepmother, just say so. Why keep pretending all day? After my mother died, you ruined my reputation outside and withheld my food inside. Jiang Shengsheng is three years younger than me and taller than me."

"I wanted to go to a private school, but you said that a woman's virtue lies in her lack of talent. Then you hired five or six masters for Jiang Shengsheng, specializing in music, chess, calligraphy, painting, and embroidery. You even lied to me and said that you loved me so much that you didn't want me to work so hard."

"I fell into the water and risked my life for a marriage, and you guys want to turn this into a business, letting Jiang Shengsheng step on me to get to the top. You still have the nerve to ask me to apologize? Bah! Shame on you!"

Every word hit Zhou's face like a rock. Even if she was still able to pretend, Zhou couldn't help herself. "Ah! Someone, take the young lady back to the backyard!"

Damn little bitch, just wait and see how I’m going to deal with you later, Zhou walked towards Jiang Li with gritted teeth.

The guard had been waiting for a long time after hearing the noise. He looked up and saw Jiang Sheng signaling, and quickly nodded and rushed over with his men.

"Miss, this way!"

Jiang Li looked up and saw that Bai Zhi had taken advantage of the chaos to move a bamboo ladder and leaned it against the courtyard wall.

Well done!

Giving Bai Zhi a thumbs up in her heart, she stood up and threw a handful of sleeping pills behind her, and the first wave of guards rushing over were all hit.

He raised his left hand and sprinkled the powder with added ingredients in Zhou's direction. Oh no, it hit him!

"Ah! Little bitch, what is this!"

"Catch her!"

"Catch her for me!"

Taking advantage of the chaos, Jiang Li rushed to the courtyard wall, shouting, "Bai Zhi, climb up quickly!"

After Bai Zhi turned over, Jiang Li quickly climbed up the wall, sat astride the courtyard, and shouted at the intruder: "Old Jiang, I won't stay in this house anymore! I wish you and your vicious step-wife a long and happy life together! But don't forget, don't dream about my mother tonight!"

Humph, since you don’t care about the relationship between father and daughter, don’t blame me for being merciless!

Jiang Li waved his fist and jumped off the wall.

"master!"

"Someone come quickly, call the doctor!"

"What are you guys still standing there for? Keep chasing! If we don't catch that little bitch today, don't come back!"

The yard was in chaos. Jiang Li grabbed the frightened Bai Zhi and ran away without caring about the direction.

&&&

"Miss, they seem to be chasing us!"

In the corner of the alley on South Street, Jiang Li and Bai Zhi squatted together, covering themselves with a broken basket and breathing heavily.

Bai Zhi is the daughter of Jiang Li's wet nurse. She has been with Jiang Li since she was a child. Jiang Li has had a hard time these years and she has been bullied a lot, but fortunately she is loyal.

As for the honest lady who suddenly seemed like a different person, she just thought it was just a desperate move and there was nothing strange about it.

Jiang Li: ...Are you polite?

"Miss, you stay here, I'll lead them away."

Hearing the sound of someone looking for someone getting closer, Jiang Li flicked her forehead and said, "What are you thinking about? With your physique, you'll be beaten to death if you go out."

"But..." Bai Zhi's eyes were red. No matter what, she had promised the lady that she would raise the young lady.

"Okay, don't say but, just listen to me, let's do this..."

Jiang Li whispered a few words in Bai Zhi's ear, then took out a few drugs from the system and handed them to her. After all, it was a medical system, and there were many things that could cure diseases and save lives. The drugs and the like were only generated when she was researching advanced anesthetics.

"You're hidden."

After giving the instructions, Jiang Li sneaked out. After running a few steps, he shouted, "Oh my god, why are so many people chasing me!" and ran in the opposite direction.

Jiang Mansion.

"Master, don't be angry. Once Li'er is brought back, I'll give her a beating. Don't get yourself hurt by being so angry."

Jiang Sheng was very angry with Jiang Li this time. The doctor said he had to stay in bed and rest.

Zhou's face was filled with anger. "It's all my fault for spoiling her too much. It's simply outrageous!"

Jiang Sheng glared at her and said, "I know you don't like her. I don't want to argue with you, but some things can't be taken too far." Jiang Sheng didn't care about his daughter, but he cared about the reputation of the Jiang family!

"Yes, Master, don't worry, nothing about what happened today will be spread out."

Jiang Sheng had seldom shown Zhou any displeasure in all these years since she married in. But today he slapped her and hit her. The more Zhou thought about it, the more resentful she became. She gritted her teeth and decided that when that girl came back, she would make her regret being born into this family!

&&&

"Help! The Jiang family is selling their daughter for fame!"

East Street Market is the busiest street in the capital.

It's a very crowded time now.

Being small has its advantages. Relying on the original owner's memory, Jiang Li jumped up and down and dove into the crowd. The servants couldn't catch up with her at all.

Taking advantage of the crowd, Jiang Li ran and shouted: "Help! The Jiang family is going to sell their daughter!"
