Chapter 17 Someone Wants to Replace Me
As Old Jiang spoke, he couldn't help but tear up. He was a grown man, but he could make people's eyes red.
"I didn't take good care of my first wife, and ended up ruining her. As a result, I married the elder sister and then the younger sister, and now both Xu sisters are falling for me. If I turn around and become an ungrateful and ungrateful person, would I still be a human being? Absolutely not!"
Prince Huai was silent for a while, and after several breaths he sighed and continued to persuade.
"I didn't mean to ask you to betray Mrs. Xu, did I? Saying you should take a concubine is actually just a nice way of saying it. Don't you understand that in your heart?
When our great cause is accomplished, who will be the wife and who will be the concubine will be decided by you with just a few words, right? "
He patted his brother's shoulder with a serious look on his face.
"Second brother, I've been teaching you for so many years that those who achieve great things must not be too particular about small details.
Look at me and your sister-in-law, aren't we a loving couple? But for the sake of the great cause, wasn't I also pulling people in here and there? Did you see what your sister-in-law said? There's a reason for all this. She knows deep down that she's the one I love most, and that's all.
How can a grown man like you dawdle over such a small matter and delay important matters? It's simply outrageous!"
"Brother, your backyard is already packed with people anyway. Why not just add one more? Too many lice won't itch, and too many debts won't worry you either. Why are you trying to make things difficult for me?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Huailiang was kicked hard on the calf. Li Changhuai kicked him twice in frustration.
"Get out of here! I just took in Big Zhu, and now I'm taking in Little Zhu? Don't you want me to stay at home anymore? The scar from your sister-in-law scratching me last time hasn't healed yet!"
"Oh, aren't you afraid of your wife yourself? What about me?"
"Bullshit! Do you think I'm afraid? That's respect for your sister-in-law!"
Hey Jiang Tiesuo, what did we say when we kowtowed to each other and became sworn brothers? We share happiness and hardships, right? Is this how you share my hardships?
Let me handle all the selling of my body! Your abacus beads are practically falling apart in my face!"
Jiang Huailiang stepped back due to the saliva of Prince Huai, and grumbled unwillingly.
"That's not what you said when you advised me these past few days! How can it be difficult? Isn't that all the good fortune of being beautiful? I respect you as my brother, so I gave all the good fortune to you..."
Prince Huai sneered.
"This blessing is for you, do you want it?"
"don't want!"
"I'll kick you to death, you idiot! We share the good times and the bad times, right? Don't run!"
At the Huai Wang Mansion, the two brothers fell out when it was time to do so, and the usual pattern of verbal confrontation followed by physical violence was repeated.
And today, another farce took place in Old Jiang's house.
Zhu Mingzhi was not wearing the provocative red dress today, but was dressed in white, looking delicate and weak, crying miserably in the hall of the Jiang family.
"Sister, please bear with me. I don't mean to argue with you. It's just that the King of Huai has already issued an order for me to marry Brother Jiang.
If I disobey your orders, how will I live in the future? Sister, for the sake of being a woman, please have mercy on me!"
These words were really disgusting. If Jiang Huailiang hadn't already confessed everything, he might have been distracted by this person's crying.
Xu raised her eyebrows, her face full of surprise.
"Miss Zhu, what do you mean by this? Could it be that the dignified Prince Yihuai actually committed the evil act of forcing a decent girl to marry?
If that's the case, then you can speak out boldly. Sister-in-law, even if I have to sacrifice my dignity, I will definitely accompany you to the Princess Huai to discuss right and wrong!
I've heard that Princess Huai is a virtuous woman, and she certainly won't turn a blind eye to your pitiful plight. "Why don't we just get up now?"
Zhu Mingzhi was almost going crazy!
How dare this stubborn old woman, Xu, humiliate me like this?
Think about it, her family has already issued a death order. If she fails to successfully marry the brother of Prince Huai, she will be sent out to be a concubine to a young man from another clan!
Although Jiang Huailiang, the rough and rude warrior, is looked down upon, he is indeed the best option available at the moment.
Who made her a bastard of the family?
Originally thought that his wife, who came from a rural village, should be easy to deal with, but who knew that she would be such a tough nut to crack?
Zhu Mingzhi raised her hand to wipe away her tears, and her expression changed. A condescending and sarcastic tone came over her.
"Xu, how could you be so selfish? You clearly knew that marrying me was the best choice for Brother Jiang, yet you were so unvirtuous just to keep the position of wife?
Think about your own status, and then look at your grimace. Are you worthy of the position of the general's wife? In the future, won't Brother Jiang be ridiculed?
Even if I am not here today, someone else will definitely take your place in the future! If you are smart, then...ah!"
The words were cut short by a kick from behind. The mournful wail had barely escaped his lips when Jiang Wan, who had come over to eavesdrop, kicked it back into his stomach.
I've said it before, this guy is an invisible psychopath.
When you can't poke her lung tube, she looks very normal. Once she starts to go crazy, well, she usually performs quite steadily.
For example, even though he hasn't learned martial arts systematically yet, he can defeat skill with force. He can kick the master and servant of the Zhu family one by one, and it's like they're playing.
"Second Miss, be careful!
You thief, stop it now, otherwise our Zhu family...ah! Stop it..."
Zhu Mingzhi's personal maidservant was very protective of her master, standing in front of her and making harsh remarks, so she got kicked the most. Her master, in turn, was filled with pain and hatred and called her an enemy.
"I am the wife of the Jiang family, personally appointed by Prince Yihuai. How dare you, Xu, order someone to beat me? I, ah! I will definitely go to Prince Huai and file a complaint against you!"
Before Mrs. Xu could say anything, she saw her eldest daughter suddenly rushing out, baring her teeth and kicking her again.
"When did you go blind with your beautiful eyes? I won't change my name, and the one who hit you is Jiang Wan, the eldest daughter of the Jiang family!"
"Big girl, stop it!"
Mrs. Xu went forward with a headache and grabbed her crazy daughter. This girl always showed off her fierceness from time to time. It was really hard to guard against her!
After being beaten by the people around her, Jiang Wan, out of respect for her mother, lowered her feet from their legs. She adjusted her dress in a very ladylike manner. Hey, she was the dignified and well-behaved eldest daughter of the Jiang family again.
"...Jiang Wan?"
Holding her aching lower abdomen, Zhu Mingzhi looked at the mother and daughter standing in front of her with gritted teeth.
"How dare you hit your elders? That's incredibly disrespectful!"
"What you said is unreasonable. How come I didn't know when an elder like you appeared in our family?"
Patting his sleeves calmly, he began to display his talent for languages.
"When a distinguished guest arrives, we naturally treat him with kind words and hospitality. But when a vicious dog comes to our house, do we expect the host not to drive it away? It comes barking at my door for no reason, insulting my mother with vicious words. As a child, I am neither blind nor deaf, so how can I tolerate this?"
