Chapter 438 Mother, do you need help?
"I'm busy right now. What does your grandmother want me to do? Go and take a look." Jiang's mother didn't even turn her head. There were so many dishes to cook in the evening. She was almost busy to death by herself!
Jiang Shangxian patted his mother on the shoulder and announced in a light tone: "I told you to beat the child~"
To be honest, Xiao Jiang's previous guess was correct. As soon as Old Madam Xia saw Xia Zhenying's face, she felt something was wrong. She knew every hair on the child she had raised, not to mention that the expression was too obvious.
Start the trial directly.
After a few sentences of interrogation, Old Lady Xia asked her to call Jiang Wangri, who was hiding in the house waiting to be beaten, while she called Jiang's mother over.
"Auntie, don't we go and take a look?" Yingzi, who was standing on a low stool cutting vegetables, looked out from time to time.
She really wants to watch the fun.
Jiang Shangxian was stewing chicken soup in a ceramic stove. She planned to add more water so that she could use the chicken soup to cook dumplings tomorrow. "Let's go over when Erlang calls."
If I go too early, I will just have to listen to my stupid brother's stupid words. I might as well go over and watch him get beaten later.
The facts were exactly as she expected. Facing the glare from Old Madam Xia, Jiang Wangri and Xia Zhenying blurted out everything like spilled beans.
Old Madam Xia was almost furious after hearing this. She didn't know what went wrong in her education. Jiang Shangxian had clearly taught her how to be a good teacher, but these two stupid kids only listened to what he said and didn't even know the situation at his family.
Didn’t you see that Cui Jiulang never said anything irresponsible like whether he liked her or not before he officially came to propose marriage?
He just sent gifts and was usually nice to Jiang Shangxian. Did he ever say anything reckless?
No!
That’s because they know the rules!
People know that such things need to be told to the family first, and then the proposal can be made openly. Only when the girl’s family agrees can the next step be taken!
What's more, I didn't even want to give anything in the early stage. I just said I liked it, and these two idiots believed it!
Jiang's mother was also dissatisfied. It seemed like the young lady who was being pursued hadn't received anything yet, but her brother-in-law was giving her slices of meat. What a brain!
The two of them exchanged glances before Jiang's mother grabbed a feather duster and rushed towards the trembling Jiang Wangri, who was kneeling on the ground. "You've grown up so arrogant! You're not even a man yet, and you dare to interfere in your cousin's marriage? If I don't beat you to death today, I won't be named Xia!"
Jiang Wangri screamed in pain after being hit on the back. He immediately jumped up and scrambled to avoid the attack from his dear mother: "Mother, I was wrong! I was really wrong! Grandma! Sister! Help!"
Xia Zhenying is usually very hardworking and capable, but this is the first time she has encountered such a thing. She was so scared that tears came out. She originally thought that her cousin and cousin-in-law seemed to have known each other and had a relationship first, so she could also have a relationship first.
She didn't want to marry into a wealthy family. She just thought that since she could read and write now and could earn money, it would be nice to find a scholar.
But she forgot that Cui Bianxu was too famous. His personal situation was not a secret at all. Everyone in Chang'an knew about it. He was completely different from Qi Sanlang, who came from outside and had no idea about his background. When Jiang Shangxian asked them in the store, she knew she was wrong, very wrong.
But her cousin was also doing this for her own sake, so she had no choice but to hold onto Old Lady Xia's legs and beg for mercy: "Grandma, my cousin is young and can't think of these things. It's all my fault. Please ask Auntie to stop beating him, stop beating him."
Jiang Shangxian, who was hiding in the kitchen, immediately covered the pot and turned down the fire when he heard the first noise, then pulled Yingzi out.
She must see this kind of excitement!
Old Fan was already craning his neck in the yard to watch the fun, holding a half-eaten piece of pork jerky in his hand, his mouth grinning obscenely. At his feet were a bunch of fat dogs staring at the pork jerky with their mouths drooling.
This dog is getting fatter and fatter.
Seeing Jiang Shangxian still greeted her comfortably: "Miss Jiang, your Erlang is getting beaten!"
Jiang Shangxian nodded, her face full of worry. She ran out because she knew she was going to be beaten: "I'll go take a look, but I can't make it hurt!"
They all loved to watch the fun and didn't mind the big things. Old Fan saw at a glance that she was not sincere, but he still said, "You have to be quick. I heard the sound, and the beating is not light."
Go quickly, open the door and let Lao Fan take a look. Just listening to the sound is not enough.
Unfortunately, Jiang Shangxian still knew to save some face for his younger brother, especially since his cousin was also inside. He opened the door a crack, slipped into the house heroically, and immediately turned around to close the door tightly again.
Old Fan smacked his lips with some regret, and moved a little closer. In case Jiang Erlang managed to escape, he could also watch the live broadcast nearby.
Seeing this, the two guards also closed the Jiang family's door and came over to Old Fan to ask for gossip: "What did Jiang Erlang do today? He hasn't been beaten like this in a while."
"Yeah, the New Year is almost here, and I still have to get beaten up. Isn't that too miserable?"
"Who knows? The cursing was too soft and I couldn't hear it clearly." Old Fan also wanted to know, but unfortunately he stood there for a long time and just listened to Jiang Wangri's howling.
The moment Jiang Shangxian walked in, he saw the scene clearly. Fortunately, he was not very angry. The furniture and decorations were all intact and not a single one was broken.
Xia Zhenying cried with red eyes. Jiang Wangri was as agile as a monkey. Jiang's mother was fat, and her big butt was shaking so much that she couldn't hit him. She was so tired that she was gasping for breath.
Xiao Jiang picked up a fallen chicken feather from her head and calmly put it away. Given her mother's ability to handle life, she'd have to pick it up and glue it back together later. She and Yingzi chose a small corner to watch for a while, realizing the situation was incredibly tense—Jiang's mother couldn't catch up with her martial arts-trained son.
"Mother, do you need my help?" Xiao Jiang, the filial daughter, extended her hand of justice.
Jiang's mother and the others all knew that she had come in, but they all thought she was there to stop the fight. They didn't expect that she would be the final blow as soon as she opened her mouth.
Jiang Wangri, who was gradually entering the parkour state, wailed in pain when he heard this: "Sister!"
How could this happen! He's my biological brother! My biological brother!
Jiang's mother was stunned for a moment, and then immediately said fiercely: "Hold him down!"
"Great!"
Xiao Jiang, an excellent student, took a few steps forward and kicked Jiang Wangri in the butt. Jiang Wangri fell flat on his face, and before he could even stand up, Yingzi, who was always on standby, rushed forward and sat on his back. He smiled sweetly at Jiang's mother and said, "Madam, please."
Jiang's mother gave Yingzi a smile of high praise: "Well done! I'll give you a chicken drumstick tonight!"
Jiang Wangri was so angry that he collapsed: "Yingzi! Get out of here!"
He struggled to push Yingzi off him, but unfortunately, although Yingzi was young, she had amazing arm strength. She supported herself on the ground with one hand and pressed Jiang Wangri's head with the other. He couldn't get up at all and could only lie on the ground with his face pressed against the ground, helpless and furious.
