Jiang Xi glanced at Yang Fen. Jiang Shan, who was behind them, frowned and asked, “Jiang Xi, what did fourth brother say to you? Don’t bother with him, he’s just a person who doesn’t do anything. No matter what he says, you can just take it as a fart!” Jiang Shan looked down on Jiang Si. Jiang Si did not know how to do anything except study. Their family was almost going bankrupt from providing for his education.
“My engagements have been called off three times. Jiang Si even embezzled my money for hanging and should return it to me. If he doesn’t return the money to me within three days, I’ll make him marry a wild boar!” After Jiang Xi finished speaking to Yang Fen, she took Jiang Shan to move all the gifts from the Zhao family into her room, leaving nothing outside.
“Jiang Xi, who gave you the courage to…” Before Yang Fen could finish her words, Jiang Xi’s eyes swept over her, and all her words were stuck in her throat. Jiang Xi’s eyes seemed to be saying ‘if you say one more word, I’ll let you live with a wild boar’.
After successfully making Yang Fen shut up, Jiang Xi sat down at the dining table decisively. He clapped his hands and said, “Let’s eat!” Jiang Shan did not hesitate at all. He picked up the bowl and began to scoop rice.
Jiang Xi’s imposing manner, which had been trained in the mental hospital, was not something that the Jiang family could resist at all. Especially when she glanced at them, they sat down in unison and did not even have the slightest intention to resist.
On the dining table was steaming red braised rabbit meat with wild mushrooms picked up from the mountains. There were also sauced pig trotters bought from the town. The pig trotters were red and covered with sauce, looking particularly appetizing. Jiang Xi picked one up with his bare hands and gnawed on it until his mouth was full of oil.
Just as Yang Fen was about to say that she would leave some for Jiang Si, she heard Jiang Xi say, “Eat them all. If you can’t finish them, give them to piggy.”
Jiang Guoyou, Jiang Da, and the others looked at each other and felt a chill run down their spines. They did not know if it was a psychological effect, but when Jiang Xi’s eyes swept over them, they actually listened to her words uncontrollably and did not dare to refute her at all. Little did they know that when Jiang Xi was angry, she could even make others listen to whatever she said!
The Jiang family was eerily quiet that night. After dinner, only Jiang Xi was in the mood to admire the moon. She even opened the door of the courtyard and gave the remaining food to the wild boar under Jiang Si’s angry gaze! The Zhao family’s butler’s expression was gloomy. He had a feeling that he had kicked offended the wrong person this time. His gaze fell on the huge wild boar, and he was thinking about how to deal with it. Otherwise, with the wild boar staring at them, they would not dare to move.
“This sister of yours is quite strong. A little girl actually dares to give a scholar like you a bad attitude.” The butler of the Zhao family added fuel to the fire at the right time, making Jiang Si even more furious.
Jiang Si gritted his teeth. “I won’t let Jiang Xi off!”
As the wild boar ate its food, it turned around and farted stupidly. It even swept its tail and pooped, which happened to land in front of Jiang Si and Butler Zhao. “Even a wild boar like it didn’t believe the words of these two people!”
The next morning, the wild boar swayed its huge body and entered the house to sleep. Without the wild boar’s watch, the few scholars got into the Zhao family’s carriage and ran away. Jiang Si did not leave. Instead, he followed the wild boar into the house.
As soon as Jiang Xi got out of bed, she was called over by Jiang Guoyou. The injury on Jiang Guoyou’s leg had not healed yet. He was lying on the bed and waving at Jiang Xi. The other members of the Jiang family stood aside.
“Jiang Xi, come here.” Jiang Guoyou handed a pair of chopsticks to Jiang Xi, who looked at Jiang Guoyou in confusion. Jiang Si, who was standing beside him, understood the meaning of Jiang Guoyou’s action. A sneer flashed in his eyes, but he remained calm.
“Break this chopstick.” Jiang Guoyou said to Jiang Xi. He had learned this method from a teacher. Fortunately, Jiang Guoyou’s mother had sent him to school to study for a few years before she died, so he had a way to educate Jiang Xi.
Although Jiang Xi did not know what was going on, she still gently broke the chopsticks, and they broke easily. Jiang Guoyou took three more chopsticks and handed them to Jiang Xi. Jiang Xi broke them again.
There was a smile on Jiang Guoyou’s face. He loved his youngest daughter the most. He also understood that he was no longer the head of the family now that his leg was broken. He was afraid that he would not be able to protect Jiang Xi in the future. Jiang Xi would still rely on his elder brothers in the future. If there was a conflict with his elder brothers, Jiang Xi would be at a disadvantage in the future.
