Chapter 52: The Whole Family Is Crazy!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Jiang Guoyou took out another bundle of chopsticks and handed it to Jiang Xi. There were many chopsticks in this bundle, and Jiang Xi had to use two hands to hold them.
Jiang Si snorted coldly at the side.’You finally know that you have to teach Jiang Xi that siblings have to work together?’ Did he want Jiang Xi to understand that she could only depend on Jiang Si to survive?
Jiang Guoyou was lying on the bed, already fantasizing about how he would tell Jiang Xi that siblings should be united after she could not break the chopsticks. After all, one person’s strength was limited, and he had to get along well with his brothers.
Jiang Xi, who was holding a large bundle of chopsticks, understood that Jiang Guoyou still wanted her to break the chopsticks. After breaking all the chopsticks, Jiang Xi’s patience gradually disappeared. She looked at Jiang Guoyou and asked, “What exactly do you want to do? just say it directly. Do we have a lot of chopsticks at home? You’re so wasteful.” She frowned, thinking that the Jiang family was crazy. A group of people surrounded her and watched her break the chopsticks.
Jiang Guoyou looked at the broken chopsticks on the ground and froze instantly. Even the smile on Jiang Si’s face froze. What happened to the lesson for Jiang Xi?
Jiang Guoyou immediately sat up, his eyes wide open and his hands trembling.
“Old Jiang!” Yang Fen cried out in panic. She turned around and saw that Jiang Guoyou had fainted from anger!
As the head of the Jiang family, Jiang Guoyou fainted from anger on the second day of the Mid-Autumn Festival. The Jiang family had four sons and one daughter. Although there was no elder in the village to help them, Jiang Guoyou had raised the entire family by himself. Although life was a little poor, he had a scholar in his family. This was something that Jiang Guoyou was most proud of. However, he had actually suffered a loss because of Jiang Xi! Jiang Xi’s marriage had not been smooth, but with Jiang Xi’s temper…
Jiang Xi has been too outrageous recently. When Jiang Si would become successful in the future, it would be easier for Jiang Xi to find a partner with his support. Those who broke off the engagement would not dare to talk nonsense outside. However, Jiang Xi is different. Instead of currying favor with Jiang Si, she even asked him to return her the compensation money that she obtained from her broken engagements. Yang Fen complained to Jiang Guoyou as she wiped his body. There was some displeasure between her eyebrows. Jiang Si was Yang Fen’s most beloved son. Due to Jiang Si, which family in Happy Village would not envy her?
“Madam Yang, do you want to kill your big wild boar? Someone in town heard the news and came to collect the wild boar meat early in the morning!” A woman shouted from outside the door.
Yang Fen heard the sound and hurried out. After splashing the water in the basin on the ground, she wiped her hands on her apron and then looked out of the door.
“Madam Yang, your family’s Jiang Si is really promising. Last night, we saw the Zhao family from the town pulling a big carriage to give Jiang Si gifts. Jiang Si even got out of the Zhao family’s carriage. Your Jiang Si is really promising!” Madam Wang gave Yang Fen a thumbs up. Behind her, there was a blushing little girl.
The few women who came with Madam Wang saw the little girl’s appearance, the corners of their mouths twitched, and their hearts were also moved. Seeing this scene from the room, Jiang Er was secretly happy. Since ancient times, things had always been done in order. Now that the eldest Jiang Da had married a wife, it should be his turn, right?
“Did the Zhao family send these things? I’ve seen that roll of cloth in the tailor’s shop, and it costs a lot of money. It’s worth a month of our living expenses. I don’t know what your Jiang Si did to catch the Zhao family’s attention,” Another woman said eagerly. Who in this town didn’t know about the existence of the Zhao family? Every winter, the Zhao family would give porridge and clothes, and their reputation was very good. In addition to the news of Zhao Ruifeng’s bad luck, the Zhao family’s charitable acts have also known to everyone.
The corners of Yang Fen’s mouth twitched. She looked at the things at the foot of the wall and did not dare to touch them. There was no other reason than that Jiang Xi had put all the things next to the big wild boar. She felt that it was not safe to put them in her room!
“You’re overpraising me. How can I bear such a big compliment?” Jiang Si had come out of his room at some point, and he did not explain that the Zhao family’s gifts were actually for Jiang Xi. Instead, he instructed Yang Fen, “Mom, don’t we have some desserts at home? Let’s give some to the aunties.”
Yang Fen clenched her fists. She glanced at the pile of gifts but did not dare to take them. She could only take out the desserts she had collected in advance last night and give them to the women. She was very reluctant to part with them. She had planned to secretly give these desserts to her family as an apology. However, since Jiang Si had spoken, she did not dare to say anything even if she was reluctant.
