Chapter 144 Take a Breath of Cold Air
Behind the door, Jiang Zhu heard a loud shout and unconsciously clenched the bolt with both hands.
"Jiang Zhu, open the door."
Everyone watched with schadenfreude.
One second, two seconds...ten seconds.
squeak.
The door opened.
"Captain, you are not welcome in our home."
His attitude was respectful, but there was a hint of sharpness in his brows.
Shh!
Everyone gasped.
Jiang Tao had a stern face, but upon closer inspection, a hint of relief flashed across his cold eyes.
Second Young Master, your temper has finally stood up.
Jiang Tao took out a piece of silk cloth folded into a square from his trouser pocket and said, "This is the gift money."
Before Jiang Zhu could even say "No need", Jiang Tao, who had noticed her intention, interrupted her and said, "I'll follow Xie Zhiqing's gift."
Sister-in-law?
Jiang Zhu's face showed some confusion.
"Xie Zhiqing's parents asked me to take good care of her." Jiang Tao added.
He was not lying, but there is an art to speaking.
Jiang Zhu thought for a moment and said, "Give me the money and I'll pass it on to my sister-in-law, but you can't come in."
He wouldn't ask the captain to go in and cause trouble for his brother.
Jiang Tao originally had no intention of going in, but when he saw Jiang Zhu's tough attitude in distancing herself from the matter, his heart skipped a beat.
It's different after all...
Even if I have no choice!
He handed the silk cloth to Jiang Zhu and said, "Please congratulate the old man for me."
It would have been fine if Jiang Tao didn't mention this, but as soon as he did, Jiang Zhu glared at him like a lion with its fur standing on end.
He retreated back to the yard and closed the gate without any courtesy.
The door made an old creaking sound, which showed how hard Jiang Zhu closed the door and how angry he was.
Jiang Tao sighed in his heart and turned away.
But that straight back looks inexplicably lonely.
Jiang Tao left in defeat, and everyone was dumbfounded.
The Jiang Family Brigade used to be a large house where more than a hundred people lived. Later, when riots broke out, the angry people demolished the yard to show their attitude and built their own small walls.
Because of their status, no one wanted to stay close to Jiangye's family of villains, so they drove them away and forced them to build a house behind the mountain to live in.
Normally, people don’t come here, but today, because of Xie Jiaojiao’s wealth, everyone who is greedy for meat gathered at the door.
But unexpectedly, the captain didn't let me in.
Those who are narrow-minded start to say sour words.
"Since they're guarding us from entering like this, there might not be any real food, just some wild vegetables and leaves, which I wouldn't even want to eat."
"That's right, I don't want to eat."
On happy days, the wind is especially gentle.
The moment they finished speaking, a warm breeze blew by, bringing with it the aroma of meat.
Gurgle gurgle.
Everyone's stomachs rumbled and they couldn't help but lick their lips with the tips of their tongues.
Although I can't get in, it's still nice to smell the food.
Watching the situation develop, Jiang Ran, who was hiding in the crowd, could no longer sit still.
There is chaos when there are too many people, and when there is chaos, it is convenient to get things done.
What's going on here? Jiang Ye blocked everyone outside.
How could he take advantage of the chaos to drug Xie Jiaojiao?
Jiang Ran, who had no idea, ran home and looked for his father Jiang Meng, who was staying at home and acting pretentiously, to find a solution.
Not long after, there was a loud knock on the door.
"Xie Zhiqing, come out."
"Xie Zhiqing, you can't go back on your word."
......
The voices of condemnation grew louder and louder, as if they were going to poke a hole in the sky. Everyone in the main room who was preparing to eat frowned and put down their chopsticks.
Jiang Ye stood up and said, "I'll go out and take a look."
As soon as he moved, Jiang Gun and Jiang Zhu also stood up and went out with Jiang Ye.
Qin Yue and Jiang Lan were worried that Xie Jiaojiao in the inner room would think too much, so they turned around and went into the inner room to comfort her.
Jiang Guo and Luo Fenglian were stopped by Jiang Dadao.
The courtyard door opened and Jiang Ye looked fierce. "What are you doing? Want to fight?"
The bone-chilling voice made the few people who had just been shouting the loudest feel the danger intuitively, and their voices unconsciously weakened.
"Xie Zhiqing? Call her out."
"We have something to ask him."
Jiang Ye glanced around, his dark eyes flashing with thought.
"What's the matter? I'm her man, just tell me."
Everyone looked unhappy, but at this time Jiang Zhu came forward with a kitchen knife.
"Brother, take it."
A hint of surprise flashed across Jiang Ye's eyes. He silently took the kitchen knife, his fingers sliding across the blade, his tone grim.
"It was just sharpened yesterday. It's still pretty sharp."
As he spoke, a small cut appeared on his fingertip, and a few drops of blood splashed out.
madman.
Everyone took two steps back at the same time.
This retreat revealed Jiang Meng's family who were hiding behind the crowd.
Jiang Ye raised the corners of his lips in sarcasm. It turned out that they were the ones causing trouble.
Sure enough, it was not the old man’s child. It was very short and hid behind, so his face could not be seen clearly.
A fierce look with a hint of contempt fell on Jiang Meng's family. Jiang Ran's face turned green, but Jiang Meng remained calm.
He took a step forward and put on a fake smile, "Nephew, uncle is late."
"Whether it's late or not is trivial. Do you have enough money?" Jiang Ye raised his eyebrows slightly. "Uncle, after all, I'm your nephew. It's not right to not have ten or twenty yuan, right?"
Jiang Ye emphasized the word "nephew" very strongly, but his words were full of sarcasm.
"Jiang Ye, are you stealing money?"
Jiang Meng waited until Jiang Ran finished speaking before stopping him. "Ten dollars is a lot of money."
Seeing Jiang Meng about to agree, Song Juan's face was in pain. "Boss, ten dollars is most of our family savings."
"Shut up!" Jiang Meng scolded. "What do you know, a woman? After all, this is a once-in-a-lifetime event for my nephew, and as his uncle, I'm going to bite the bullet and pay for it."
What a face full of embarrassment but loving love for nephew.
What a pity, it’s so fake!
"Ten dollars?" Jiang Ye's face was a little disappointed. "I thought it would be at least twenty dollars. It seems that my uncle still loves his own son and wants to keep most of the money to marry my eldest cousin."
"You're talking nonsense, little bastard."
Song Juan was so angry at Jiang Ye's nonsense that her chest heaved violently. In a fit of rage, she blurted out what she had said to Jiang Ye in private.
Jiang Ye has not yet taken the opportunity to attack.
Jiang Meng decisively slapped him.
The slap was so strong that blood oozed from the corner of Song Juan's mouth.
"My nephew is a little brat? What am I, as his uncle, supposed to be?"
Jiang Wang suddenly responded, "Big./Bitch?!"
Jiang Meng's calm face darkened.
He glared at the culprit, "You stinky mouth, if you can't speak again, I'll sew it up with a needle."
"Hurry up and apologize to your nephew."
Song Juan looked reluctant and said vaguely, "I'm sorry."
Jiang Ye said calmly, "Uncle, your voice is so low, I don't think my aunt is very willing to keep silent. As the saying goes, two people can sleep in the same bed. Could it be that Uncle also thinks of his nephew in this way?"
Jiang Meng cursed in his heart: This woman is more likely to cause trouble than to help.
Pop.
He slapped her again, "Louder for me."
"I'm sorry." Song Juan lowered her eyes to hide the gloom in her eyes, and shouted with all her might.
Fearing that Jiang Ye would find fault again, Jiang Meng dared to change the subject before he asked for money.
