Chapter 312 Women's School (Part 2)
Jiang Lanhua still remembers what happened that year. Right after her biological mother was buried, her biological father brought her stepmother home, along with two children.
As the old saying goes, if you have a stepmother, you will have a stepfather.
With a few more mouths to feed at home and life becoming difficult, he sold her to a brothel.
Just because, selling it to a brothel can earn a few more taels of silver.
If the princess had not been kind enough to buy her, her life would have been ruined.
From then on, she vowed to cut off all ties with the past. She had no family, only a master.
Father Jiang glared at her, Mother Jiang patted him lightly, and the couple exchanged glances.
Jiang's mother smiled and said angrily, "How can you talk like that, child? There's no such thing as overnight hatred between father and daughter. Daya, your father really misses you."
Jiang Lanhua glanced at them coldly. What were they pretending to be? They were a pair of bastards who had been hooking up before her mother died.
"What on earth is going on with you?"
Mother Jiang still had a loving smile on her face as she whispered softly, "Your father has arranged a good marriage for you. He's the only son of Mr. Jia in town. His family is extremely wealthy. Once you marry into his family, you can expect to enjoy a life of happiness."
Jiang Lanhua sneered, "Such a good marriage, why don't you let your daughter, your burden, go?"
Jiang's mother's face darkened. "What do you mean by 'burden'? That's really awful."
"I'm attracted to you."
Jiang Lanhua is no longer the ignorant, simple and timid little girl. She has read books, gained wisdom and understood a lot.
He has never even met her, but he insists on marrying her. Either he has some ulterior motive, or there is something dark and dirty about this marriage.
"I won't marry."
Father Jiang never had any patience with his daughter, and he frowned and shouted.
"It is my parents' will and the matchmaker's words that I have betrothed you to the Jia family. You must marry me even if you don't want to."
Jiang Lanhua's heart moved, "Is the Jia family's only son sick? Or is he dying?"
Father Jiang's face changed. That's right, the only son of the Jia family is a moron. The Jia family wants a literate and capable daughter-in-law to carry on the family line and support the family business.
As soon as he heard about this good thing, he took the initiative to come to the door and promised the marriage.
Jiang Lanhua saw this and felt even more desolate. "How much betrothal gifts did you receive? You sold her once, and you want to sell her again. Aren't you afraid of being starved to death?"
Father Jiang felt his authority was challenged and flew into a rage, "What's your attitude? I'm your biological father. Everything I do is for your own good."
Jiang Lanhua asked coldly, "Selling me out is also for my own good?"
He sold her again and again, being greedy.
Father Jiang was about to get angry, but Mother Jiang pinched him lightly, and he forced himself to suppress his anger.
What he wants is not just a sum of money, but security every month and every year, for a lifetime.
"I reluctantly gave up my love for your own good, because I knew I would have a bright future following Princess Jinyun."
His eyes were red, and he played the emotional card, "Daya, there are no parents in the world who don't love their children."
Mother Jiang's eyes flickered slightly, her face kind, "Yes, Daya, your father has been thinking about you all these years, sighing all the time and unable to sleep at night."
As long as they marry Daya into the Jia family, they can exploit her for the rest of her life, suck her blood, and let her support the whole family.
The Jiang family relatives who came along all chimed in, "Daya, there are no bad parents in the world, be obedient."
"Your last name is Jiang after all. The grace of birth is greater than heaven. If you are unfilial, you will be criticized."
Without waiting for them to finish, Jiang Lanhua turned and walked towards the farm, her back looking extremely determined.
When the Jiang family saw this, they became anxious and rushed forward to stop them.
Jiang Lanhua looked at them coldly, "I won't go back with you. Forget it."
Seeing that he couldn't coax her, Jiang's father became angry and pointed at Jiang Lanhua and shouted at her.
"Evil creature, if I had known you were so unfilial, I should have drowned you the moment you were born."
Jiang Lanhua had given up hope long ago and had nothing to be sad about. "Not acting anymore? You want to use me to exchange for wealth and glory? It's impossible in your next life."
Father Jiang was furious and raised his arm and swung it down. "Pa."
A slap hit Jiang Lanhua's face. Jiang Lanhua's body swayed, and she heard her father shouting, "Don't talk nonsense with her, drag her away."
As soon as he opened his mouth, the relatives who followed him were able to use their strength. They rushed forward and forcibly carried Jiang Lanhua away.
The guards were dumbfounded. Did these people think that being loud always meant they were right? Or did they think being rude and rude would get them what they wanted?
Ignorance is not scary, what is scary is ignorance, stupidity and arrogance.
They stepped forward to stop him, "How dare you cause trouble at the princess's farm? Arrest them all and send them to jail."
The Jiang family couldn't help but get anxious and started to argue unreasonably, "Even if she's the princess, she can't break up the bond between us."
The guard impatiently whipped Jiang's father on the head.
"You can leave, but first take 10,000 taels of silver."
What's the point of talking about this? It's useless!
Father Jiang's head ached, and he was furious and annoyed. "You are blackmailing me!"
If they had so much money, why would they come?
The guard whipped again, this time targeting Jiang's mother, a bunch of bad guys.
"Go back to where you came from. If you offend the princess, there will be no good end."
Jiang's mother was beaten until her head was bleeding and she cried out, "If the world knew that the princess was so heartless and cruel to separate the family relationship between father and daughter, she would definitely be condemned by the whole world."
Jiang Lanhua was furious and said it was okay for her, but not for the princess.
"That's enough. I'll go back with you."
The Jiang family was ecstatic, "That's right, this is my good daughter."
Father Jiang said loudly, "Daya, we are the closest relatives, sharing honor and disgrace. You will still need your family's support after you get married."
"Remember, no one else is reliable. Only your mother's family is the most reliable. So, try to get more money from your mother's family."
"Then, I'll send your brother to the best academy, let them become high-ranking officials, and marry your sister off to a royal family..."
The guards were stunned. How could a poor family that sold their daughter dare to have such wishful thinking?
Become a high official? Become a princess? Why not go to heaven?
Who painted the rosy picture for them?
One dares to draw, the other dares to eat, it's so hilarious.
No wonder he dared to risk offending Prince Rui's Mansion to come and snatch someone away.
Truly, the temptation is too great.
Jiang Lanhua looked at him coldly. He wanted to drink her blood and use her to get in touch with the princess.
He is calculating to the core.
She suddenly took out a box from her arms, "Do you know what this is?"
Father Jiang was stunned for a moment, then his eyes lit up. "The money you've earned over the years? Is it silver bills? Bring it here quickly, I'll keep it for you."
Jiang Lanhua sneered in her heart. These people only cared about money.
She opened the box and found a bottle inside. The Jiang family was very disappointed. Wasn't it a banknote?
"It's powder."
She gave a strange smile, "If you get even a little bit of it on you, you'll itch unbearably, and your whole body will fester and you'll die."
The Jiang family was stunned and dumbfounded.
"What...what do you want to do?"
