Chapter 2: The Mighty Eldest Sister
"What were you doing?"
It was obvious that the elder sister had no good intentions when she asked the question even though she knew the answer. The naughty kid, who had already learned his lesson from being beaten, instinctively took two steps back, covering his butt with his hands.
"Big sister, this isn't my fault, you can't hit me! It's Mom's fault. She didn't give me any chicken even though we had it at home..."
"Why should I give it to you?"
Jiang Wan interrupted the evil guy in a bad mood and started to complain first. He glared at the naughty kid and scared him so much that he shuddered.
"Do you have mountains of gold and silver at home that can keep you eating and drinking all day? Also, how did you talk to the elders just now? Are you itching again?"
While he was talking, he had already rushed to the door and touched the branch that had been polished to a smooth finish. Before Jiang Yaozu could react, it landed on his fat butt with a crackling sound.
"...Wow, you really don't blame me this time, why are you hitting me? Wow, help..."
Old Wang just couldn't bear to see this scene. Every time she saw it, she felt heartbroken. She only remembered the food and not the beating, and pounced on him again.
"Jiang Zhaodi, you damned girl, who allowed you to hit my grandson? I, an old woman, will not forgive you!"
His heart was truly in his toss to save his grandson, but his old arms and legs were weak, and he always let the other party dodge easily. In fact, if Old Man Jiang hadn't been quick to pull him, he would have fallen to the ground due to inertia.
Of course, even if Jiang Wan had a bad temper, he couldn't possibly hit an old lady, so he could only blame her precious and precious penis. So the unlucky Jiang Yaozu became the main battlefield for venting his anger.
"I told you not to learn your lesson at such a young age. You lie all day long. You are such a piece of shit! I told you to lie, I told you to lie!"
Every time a branch fell on the naughty kid's butt, it was a sign of her deep resentment.
Jiang Yaozu howled like a ghost.
"I didn't lie to you. Grandma clearly said there were delicious treats in the ditch. Why did you hit me when you didn't catch anything? You're being unreasonable! Wuuwuwu..."
"Yaozu, don't be so stubborn. Be obedient, okay?"
Old man Jiang, who was already very experienced, could only warn his grandson with heartache while standing next to his eldest granddaughter and giving her earnest advice.
"Girl, just discipline him enough. Your brother is the only heir of our family. If you beat him to death, our Jiang family will be extinct!"
If it weren't for the fact that this crazy and silly granddaughter had so much strength, Old Man Jiang wouldn't have been at a loss for how to deal with her and could only resort to talking.
Mrs. Xu, the mother, didn't say much. She felt that her son deserved a lesson anyway.
In the past, with his parents-in-law protecting him, this kid was lawless and there was no one in the family he was afraid of. Now that his eldest sister can subdue this kid, it's a good thing.
Jiang Hudi followed his mother and saw that the annoying Jiang Yaozu was beaten by the crazy elder sister again. He bared his teeth in relief.
Should!
Tell him to take advantage of the fact that he is a boy, eat alone all day long, and bully others at home. He deserves to be beaten!
Even though Old Mrs. Wang wanted to cry and scream, she couldn't stop her precious grandson from being beaten up by his sister again.
Only after Jiang Wan had vented his anger and put down his weapon could the old lady rush over to her grandson. She pulled down his pants and saw that everything was in order, and she felt so distressed.
"Oh my God, why did you kill him so harshly? He's your own brother, or something? Why do you hate him so much? You heartless girl!"
"Grandma... wuwuwu..."
"Shut up!"
Jiang Yaozu was about to cry and complain when he was scolded by his mighty elder sister.
The naughty child, who had suffered a psychological trauma from the beating, sniffled miserably and held back tears, but he didn't dare to make a sound.
Jiang Wan sat back in his seat with a frown on his face, looking at the extremely partial old man and old woman from the Jiang family, and snorted with a forced smile.
"Why do naughty kids dare to be naughty? Mostly because they are not beaten enough. As the saying goes, a good son is made under the stick. I don't believe this truth, you don't understand.
No matter what, isn't it just that you can't bring yourself to punish him?
It's okay. I'm a free man anyway, with plenty of time and energy. If one meal a day isn't enough, then I'll give it to him twice a day. I'll see who can handle a beating, or who has a better fistfight!
"Wow!"
Poor Jiang Yaozu was so frightened that he burst into tears, which made old Wang feel very distressed.
But with her previous experience as a guide, she didn't dare to actually hit the damn girl. Whether or not she could hit anyone was another matter, but her precious grandson would definitely get a beating.
The only option is to change strategy and play the victim.
He sat down tremblingly opposite his eldest granddaughter, with gray hair and a choked voice. His face was filled with tears, and it looked like a picture of sorrow and misery.
"Zhao Di, if it weren't for me being biased, I wouldn't treat my granddaughter as a human being. Yaozu is the only root of our family. If we don't protect him, our Jiang family will be extinct!
Think about it honestly: how have you and your brother lived these years? Compared to the other girls in the village, are you living better off?
Look at how many girls there are in this village? Aren't they all sold by their families to exchange for food? Our family was in such a difficult situation a few years ago, but we didn't even want to sell you two sisters. What else do you want?"
If he was playing the victim at the beginning, now Old Wang is actually getting more and more upset the more he talks.
"If it weren't for your unfilial father, who left all of us young and old behind and passed away first, I wouldn't have wanted to let you go hungry!
But isn’t there anything we can do about it?
If we don't have Yaozu, who will burn paper on our graves when we two old guys die? Who will your mother rely on to take care of her when she gets old? And you two sisters, if you get married and get wronged, who will support you then?"
Every word seemed to make sense, but Jiang Wan, who was as hard-hearted as a wolf, was not moved at all.
“You also know that your granddaughter is starving?
Let’s not talk about whether you treat your granddaughter as a human being, nor about the fact that everyone in Old Jiang’s family is starving like skeletons.
I'd like to ask you two, are you planning to treat your precious grandson like a pig?"
He stretched out his finger and pointed at the fat boy in tattered clothes.
"Look at him and then look at the others. There's no one in Jianghe Village who's more rounded than Jiang Yaozu, right?
It's not so bad now. Every household still has some food in stock. But think about it: what if the situation gets worse and every household has no food?
Aren't you afraid that someday those hungry people will just wash and eat your fat grandson?"
boom!
Not only was Jiang Yaozu trembling with fear, but even Old Man Jiang and Old Lady Wang turned pale. Lady Xu, clutching her equally frightened little daughter, sighed softly. She turned to look outside the door before softly reassuring her in-laws.
"Dad and Mom, don't panic, it hasn't reached that point yet.
I heard that the Yihuai Army is about to attack. Once Prince Yihuai can enter the capital and sit facing south, I think the world will probably be at peace.
By then, life for ordinary people like us should be much better."
