Xiao Cunyu didn't know Jiang Hanyi before, but he had heard of the name of the old general of the Jiang family. He knew that this man was not an unreasonable bastard, so he came here in person to cause trouble.
Hearing the old man say this, she didn't push him any further. She just said, "Your eldest grandson has a bad temper, which is natural. I don't blame him, but you can see how messed up I am. I just fell down from a great height, and now I'm in pain and discomfort. You have to give me some compensation."
"Okay." General Jiang also agreed readily.
This is how it should be. According to etiquette, I can send a generous gift to the Xiao family tomorrow morning to apologize.
"My demands are not high. He wants to steal my things to honor you, so I will take them back. I heard that your grandfather has collected many fine paintings by famous artists over the years. It's not too much for me to choose three of them, right?" Xiao Cunyu said again.
"..." The old man raised his eyelids, "It's up to you."
In fact, he doesn't really like those masterpieces by famous authors.
As a martial artist, he had no interest in those flowery things, but sometimes he couldn't indulge in the fun he wanted.
In his early years, he held the military power of the Northern Army. Even when he returned to Beijing to recuperate, the emperor let him take charge of the Tiance Army. He knew that it was not a good thing to have his own troops, so he forced himself to withdraw on the grounds of health.
However, the current emperor is a suspicious person. After retiring, if he continued to wield swords and spears all day, His Majesty would definitely think that he was afraid of the royal family and did not trust his master. This is why he retired at the last moment. In order to make the scene of his injury more realistic, he has not dared to touch swords, spears, swords or halberds in recent years...
He was also telling others that he was really old and no longer able to do what he wanted, and that he was not retreating because of the emperor's suspicion...
What else can he do after retiring?
Since you can’t touch swords and knives, then learn from the scholars!
But he couldn't understand the thick pile of books and didn't want to read them. After thinking about it, he thought it would be nice to play with flowers and plants and look at paintings...
Now, even his descendants think that he really likes this.
No one understands him.
"You are so generous. This thing is not important to you. I believe you won't feel bad even if I pick a rare item." Xiao Cunyu grinned. "My third brother is different. He must be happy to get a treasure."
Today, Third Brother came here with great difficulty to save her, so she should thank him in any way.
"I bought them with great effort, how can I not feel bad about it!" General Jiang snorted.
Xiao Cunyu raised his eyebrows: "If you say so, then so be it."
Judging from his appearance, he was a man who loved martial arts and soldiers. He was said to like painting flowers and plants? Xiao Cunyu didn't believe it at all, and...
Xiao Cunyu glanced at the flowers and plants in the yard, and his mind became clearer.
The flowers and plants are quite expensive, but they are all varieties that are relatively easy to grow. I guess he is too lazy to take care of the delicate flowers, or he can't keep them alive at all!
And the flowers were arranged in a messy manner, without any sense of beauty in matching. She had just stepped on these flower pots all the way here, and the old general was just surprised by her appearance and didn't even look at the flowers she damaged!
Obviously, I don’t care!
The old general was surprised at Xiao Qi's intelligence and was shocked, so he didn't continue talking.
But when I think about it again, I feel like something is wrong...
"Han Yi, did you chase him all the way here?" asked the old general.
"Well, this kid is very smooth-talking and shrewd... He's been making me angry all the way..." Jiang Hanyi took the opportunity to complain.
The old general took a breath.
The grandson...seems even dumber.
