958, the adopted daughter at home (end) two in one
When something happened to her son, Jiang Hui immediately suspected that someone was causing trouble. The first person she suspected was her niece, but after checking for a long time, she found no clues.
As for Aunt Fang... Jiang Hui really doesn't think highly of her.
In her eyes, an Israeli girl who serves people does not have that much ability.
I received a post today and saw that it was Jiang's Restaurant. Jiang Hui's first reaction was that her niece had harmed her. She hadn't noticed it before, so she must have hidden it too well and not found out.
When she got here, she thought that the person waiting here should be that dead girl, but she never expected that it was Aunt Fang.
At this time, Aunt Fang was no longer the pitiful little girl who had resented her but had to endure it in the Fang family. Her face was full of pride, and her eyes were full of schadenfreude.
How could Jiang Hui accept that someone she once stepped under was now so arrogant?
Hearing her own confession of killing her son, Jiang Hui was so angry that her head went blank. She immediately raised her hand and wanted to hit him.
Aunt Fang remained unmoved. The stout woman beside her had already reached out to stop Jiang Hui, and said in a deep voice: "If Mrs. He San doesn't want this claw anymore, feel free to do it again!"
Jiang Hui felt confused: "How dare you chop off my hand? This is a violation of the law and will be punished!"
Mother-in-law Fu Shen's voice was cold: "We are definitely voluntary, and we will not force anyone. As long as we sign the contract, the Yamen will have nothing to do. If Mrs. He San doesn't believe it, just give it a try."
When Jiang Hui heard these words, she felt extremely cold. A layer of cold sweat broke out on her back. She subconsciously said, "How could I agree to such a thing?"
Aunt Fang was happy: "What the Third Madam said is funny. You said that if we let your son choose... would he be willing to chop his own? Or chop yours?"
Jiang Hui's face turned pale.
Aunt Fang played with her pink-painted fingers and said with great interest: "This person is just weird. The knife doesn't hurt unless it falls on him. How do you feel now?"
Jiang Hui felt as if she had eaten thousands of kilograms of yellow lotus, and her whole body was suffering from the inside out.
Being held in the palm of the hand by a little person that I didn't like, it was so suffocating that even breathing was painful.
"You came to me not just to ridicule me, right?" Jiang Hui wanted to step forward and tear her proud face away, but her reason was still there. She took several deep breaths to suppress the frustration and anger in her heart, "Say it.
, what are you going to do to let me go?"
Aunt Fang laughed proudly, laughing so wildly that she burst into tears. She stretched out her fingers to wipe them away and looked at Jiang Hui: "Given the grudge between the two of us, what do you think?"
Looking at such a woman, Jiang Hui felt that her beauty was like that of a snake or scorpion, which made people feel frightened. She swallowed: "What are you going to do to let my son go?"
"I came to you not to put forward conditions, but to collect debts." Aunt Fang sat back charmingly, regaining her original composure, "He Lin owes our master a thousand taels of silver, and in two days
Your hand will be cut off! Not only that, one thousand taels of silver will turn into two thousand taels...enjoy it."
Jiang Hui felt that her heart had dropped into an ice cellar. She said with difficulty: "You are not short of money. You are doing this just to get revenge on me. How can you let my son go?"
Aunt Fang reached out and brushed her hair: "Easy!"
"Just tit for tat."
Jiang Hui didn't believe her first two words at all. If it were simple, Aunt Fang wouldn't have done these things. When she heard the next words, her face suddenly turned pale.
Although he had known for a long time that she would not let him go easily... To retaliate with tooth, this was to destroy He Lin.
At this moment, Jiang Hui really regretted it.
She knew that this woman was not simple, but she didn't expect that she would be so vicious.
When she walked out of the restaurant, Jiang Hui's whole body was as frosty as a beaten eggplant. She was so lost that she almost bumped into someone.
Chu Yunli knew about Aunt Fang's reception at Jiang's Restaurant right away.
Seeing Jiang Hui's shocked look, it is not difficult to guess that the conversation between the two was not pleasant.
Anyway, Jiang Hui was having a hard time, so she was satisfied.
Jiang Hui got on the carriage and carefully recalled Aunt Fang's words. Suddenly, she thought of something and suddenly opened her eyes: "Hurry back home!"
She suddenly remembered that she was the one who made Aunt Fang unable to have children in her life. Although Aunt Fang only attacks He Lin now, with her ruthless and vengeful temperament, she will attack her daughter sooner or later. The top priority now is to first
Send your daughter away.
Jiang Hui didn't know anyone from other places, but the He family had relatives outside. At this time, she couldn't care less about face and ran to find her sister-in-law: "Didn't you tell me before that your maternal cousin's son wanted to marry He?"
Marriage at home?"
The second lady looked surprised: "You mean..."
"At that time, I was thinking about something." Jiang Hui was very anxious: "Has your cousin got married? Are you still willing to continue this marriage?"
The second lady looked embarrassed. Her cousin was a person who had no profit and could not afford to be early. It was not so much that she fell in love with He Yao, but rather that she fell in love with He Yao's dowry.
It is really difficult for an ordinary family to provide a scholar.
But now the third brother of the He family can't afford a decent dowry, so they only rely on the middle school... It's not much at all. And the most important thing is that scholars value reputation. He Yao has an elder brother who eats, drinks, whores and gambles.
I don’t want to have such a relative. For scholars, such a brother-in-law will definitely be a hindrance in the future.
If he wanted to marry He Yao before, he probably no longer likes He Yao.
There are some things that everyone knows very well, but it is not appropriate to say them. Especially since the two are sisters-in-law, they are already different from each other. If the second lady tells these reasons, she is actually telling the truth. But in Jiang Hui's eyes, it is probably
Not only did her sister-in-law not help, she even ridiculed and made fun of her.
The second lady understood this and didn't say much at the moment. She just said: "After you refused last time, my cousin has already arranged a marriage for my cousin. I just don't know if it will go well. Otherwise, I will go and ask you.
ask?"
She said she was going to ask, but the second lady had no intention of asking at all. Originally, she was a cousin, not a biological sister, and the relationship was not that deep. If He Yao had a large dowry and helped her cousin, her cousin would live a good life in the future.
She can still get some glory...but now, promoting this marriage will only cause a lot of trouble and is a thankless task. She is stupid to do it!
Jiang Hui is not a fool. When her second sister-in-law said this, she thought that she was a scholar and understood that this marriage should not be possible. She really wanted to promote this marriage, but in the first place, rushing can easily make people dislike it. Secondly,
, she doesn’t have time to wait!
Because she didn't know when Aunt Fang would take action against her daughter, the sooner she could send her away, the better.
In the next two days, Jiang Hui asked around to find out who had relatives in other places.
The marriage of children is so important that no matter which family they choose, they have to give it a lot of thought. Jiang Hui had been picking and choosing for a long time, but she always felt that it was a bit unsatisfactory, and she had not made a marriage decision for the two brothers and sisters. How could it be decided in such a short time?
She liked He Yao, but others looked down on him. Jiang Hui felt that her daughter was wronged by her willingness to marry He Yao, so she was in a dilemma.
After struggling for two days, it was time to pay back the money.
Jiang Huidong scraped together only one hundred taels. The people who came to collect the debt were very fierce. Although they did not get one thousand taels, they did not insist on chopping off their hands when they saw the silver. The leader of the group weighed a few silver ingots in his hands with great interest.
Suggestion: "I heard that He Lin has a younger sister who is in her prime?"
Jiang Hui's heart skipped a beat, and she forced a smile and said, "We're already engaged."
The leader sneered: "Originally, I wanted to give you a clear path and send her to be a maid for Aunt Fang to pay off the debt, but I didn't expect that it would be inconvenient since she was already engaged."
Jiang Hui thought she had heard wrongly, but when she realized what she was saying, she was really tempted for a moment.
My daughter is worth nine hundred taels!
But then she understood that these nine hundred taels were probably the money to buy her daughter's life. It would be fine if she gave her a happy life, but if she was reduced to those dirty places, she would really be unable to survive or die.
Jiang Hui was exhausted mentally and physically by her son's debt these days. She was only tempted for a moment and quickly calmed down.
So what if the daughter pays off the debt?
Aunt Fang's resentment towards her could make He Lin owe two thousand taels, and she could make him owe another debt!
As long as this woman is here, mother and son will never have peace.
After thinking about it again, my heart sank. Aunt Fang wanted He Yao, which proved that she really had no intention of letting her daughter go!
Thinking of this, Jiang Hui became more and more anxious. Her daughter's marriage was really imminent and she couldn't wait any longer!
Immediately, Jiang Hui did not go back home, but went directly to the house of the person who wanted to marry He Yao.
In the past, Jiang Hui always felt that there was something wrong with these families, but now she couldn't care less about it. It was important to send her daughter out as soon as possible.
But as she walked around, she suddenly discovered that the people who had previously wanted to marry her daughter were all using excuses.
Within half a day, I changed my mind!
On the way back, Jiang Hui looked ugly. The woman next to her stopped talking several times.
Jiang Hui was impatient: "Why are you hesitating?"
The mother-in-law tentatively said: "Madam, I have a nephew in my hometown. He is a simple and honest man. His family background is not bad, not as good as..."
Jiang Hui didn't finish listening, only feeling a surge of anger rushing to her forehead. He Yao had a brother to drag him down, and she was still the legitimate daughter of the third room of the He family. She would not be reduced to a nephew worthy of a slave, so she immediately cursed: "
Palm Mouth! The toad wants to eat swan meat, you think so!"
The mother-in-law was stunned, then knelt down and quickly explained: "That's not what I mean. I only have respect for Miss Yao and never dare to have any blasphemous thoughts. What I mean is that my relative is simple and honest, so why not treat Miss Yao
I sent her there to avoid the limelight, not to marry her..."
After the mother-in-law explained, Jiang Hui's expression softened. If it were before, she might have believed the people around her, but after what happened to Aunt Fang and Mr. He's betrayal, she now doesn't believe anyone, no matter what.
, she thought it was a conspiracy.
Although she no longer blamed her mother-in-law, she did not believe everything she said.
He Yao is a girl, how could she hand her over to a stranger?
Furthermore, He Yao was in her prime, at the time when her love for love was budding, and she was not that sensible, so she might have been coaxed into doing so. If she was really devoted to a poor boy, Jiang Hui felt suffocated just thinking about it.
Therefore, not only was she not grateful to the people around her for rescuing her, she actually sent them away.
A few days later, He Yao got married out of Fucheng and went to a small town under Fucheng's jurisdiction. She was just a small business owner from a well-off family. On the day of the wedding, she collected all the money she had left on hand, which was more than ten taels.
A small courtyard was built for He Yao in that town as a dowry for his daughter, and then, on the next day, someone sent his daughter there.
It takes four or five days by carriage from Fucheng there, and no one will go there. This is also the way she tried her best to leave a way for her daughter to survive.
No matter what Jiang Hui is like, her affection for her children is not fake.
Chu Yunli learned about this and did not stop it.
Now that things have happened, Jiang Hui should have been responsible for Jiang Yuning's death in his previous life.
Although Jiang Yuning had left the Jiang family at that time, her husband's family was also a well-known family in the outer city, and their business was doing well.
The Qin family simply wanted to get some benefits from this marriage, and Jiang Yuning was obeying his parents' orders. But Jiang Hui probably couldn't accept that marriage.
Firstly, it is not good for my niece to marry well. Secondly, and most importantly, anyone who does well in business will not be a fool. Why would such a family want to marry someone who was kicked out by the Jiang family?
Jiang Yuning?
There will definitely be benefits to marrying Jiang Yuning, such as getting along with the Jiang family, or even... taking back the Jiang family!
Once you have experienced the feeling of having a large sum of money, you will never be willing to let it go. How could Jiang Hui tolerate this happening?
Jiang Yuning's death is inevitable.
Jiang Hui sent her daughter away, feeling half relieved. After the initial panic, she recently figured it out. Raising money to pay off debts is not a solution to the problem at all.
Only by making Mr. Li hate Aunt Fang, or... let her die directly, can we end it once and for all!
Before that, the debt must be paid off!
So, Jiang Hui visited the Jiang family again. Her original intention was to borrow money, but she couldn't even get in.
The concierge didn't even make any detours, and said directly: "Master has said that we will break off diplomatic relations with the He family in the future and stop all the He family members who come to your door. You'd better not make things difficult for me. Even if you kill us, we won't be able to help you report.
I won't even let you in."
Jiang Hui had been rejected a lot these days. When she heard the concierge's words, she was annoyed at Jiang Yuning's ruthlessness and felt a little desperate.
But she can't leave either. Forbearance is the deadline. If she doesn't meet it, her hand will really be chopped off.
Jiang Hui didn't want to leave, so she struggled at the door. Seeing this, the concierge got angry and called the guards over.
The guard came in a menacing manner with a stick. Jiang Hui looked at it with sadness in her heart. She didn't understand how she got to this point.
But no matter if she doesn't understand or doesn't want to leave, she has to leave. If she really gets beaten up, she will be the one who is embarrassed.
He Lin did these things, and outsiders shook their heads when they mentioned it. It was normal for Jiang Hui to be shut out. On the contrary, if anyone really helped her pay off this debt, that would be the one who was taken advantage of in the eyes of outsiders.
In this world, the last thing we can hope for is for the prodigal son of a gambler to come back.
After leaving Jiang's house, Jiang Hui wandered around outside all night, and finally blocked Chu Yunli when she went out the next morning.
After a night of despair, she knelt directly in front of the carriage: "Yuning, this time, you have to help me no matter what. Otherwise, I will never be able to kneel down."
Who are you trying to scare?
But for an elder to kneel down with a junior, it is the junior's fault to say the least. Chu Yunli laughed angrily and said: "I have already told the outside world that the Jianghe family has severed diplomatic relations. Don't say kneeling here, you will die in front of me.
I won’t even look at it twice.”
Jiang Hui looked at the niece in front of her, and remembered in a daze that she seemed to be extra cautious about herself after the funeral... Thinking of her dead brother and sister-in-law, Jiang Hui was horrified. She looked at the high-ranking people on the carriage in confusion.
The woman asked tentatively: "Why do you hate me so much?"
Looking at her frightened expression, Chu Yunli smiled half-heartedly: "Are you guilty of the death of my parents?"
Jiang Hui turned pale in an instant, and managed to calm down, saying: "Did they accidentally hit a slippery slope? Besides, it's because they want to get you a marriage. What does it have to do with me? Why do I feel guilty?"
Yes, unexpected!
So it's very difficult to handle. So what if Jiang Hui admits it by pressing her head?
It is impossible to explain things like natural disasters. What did Chu Yunli do to Jiang Hui because of this? Outsiders still think that the Jiang family is unreasonable.
Chu Yunli looked at the embarrassed Jiang Hui on the ground, her heart was happy, and her mouth was merciless: "I know you killed them. Anyway... you don't want to have a good life in the rest of your life. As long as you remember, you
If you kill your brother and sister-in-law, life will only become more and more difficult. If I don’t kill you, I will make you regret the things you have done every day of your difficult life. If my parents don’t die, you can live a good life.
, they are dead, and you will only become more and more miserable. Don't even think about struggling. If I see that you are doing well, I will push you back and push you into the mud. I am still young and my days are still long...
Aunt, enjoy it!"
The carriage drove away.
Jiang Hui was left alone lying on the ground full of despair. After a long time, she got up and went to several other houses. Not to mention borrowing money, they wouldn't even let her in.
The reasons are all ready: If your mother’s family doesn’t care, who will care about you?
The more he wandered around, the more Jiang Hui hated him. He hated Jiang Yuning for his ruthlessness, but also hated Aunt Fang for trying to kill her. In fact, deep down in her heart, she already regretted it.
The sky gradually gets brighter.
Jiang Hui took the ten taels of silver she had raised from selling her carriage and jewelry. These were the last remaining possessions after buying a shop for her daughter. Apart from these, she could not afford a penny anymore.
In the small courtyard in the outer city, the debt collectors were already waiting.
He Lin was in a panic and huddled in the corner. How could he still have the grace of the young master of the He family?
Seeing Jiang Hui with red eyes entering the door, she immediately rushed over: "Mother...Mother, have you brought any money?"
Seeing his son like this, Jiang Hui felt very sad.
In the house, Aunt Fang took Master Li's hand and walked out casually, smiling and saying: "You're here?"
Stretching out a white and slender hand: "Where are the banknotes?"
In fact, just looking at Jiang Hui's embarrassed look at this moment, one knew that she would definitely not be able to do it.
Jiang Hui bent down to help her son, slowly stood up straight, and said, "I only have ten taels. Again, what are you going to do to let my son go?"
Aunt Fang laughed out loud: "He just needs to pay back the money he owes, so how do you want me to release it? It's natural to pay back debts. You don't want me to forgive the debt, do you?"
"Yes!" Jiang Hui nodded: "How do you want to forgive this debt? Is my life enough?"
Aunt Fang smiled and shook her head: "How easy it is to die. Isn't it easy for you to die? Find a rope and hang yourself, or just hit the wall directly. What will I do with your life? Can I buy food, or can I
Buy something to wear?”
Jiang Hui looked calm: "I'm happy to be able to buy you! It's hard to buy a good heart. Don't you just want revenge? Don't you want me to die?"
"Who said that?" Aunt Fang looked confused.
Mr. Li became impatient, waved his hand and said: "If you don't have money, you will pay with your flesh."
The physical reward he talks about is not selling people to flower houses, but... chopping off their hands!
He Lin's expression on the ground changed drastically, and he shouted: "No, Second Master, please spare me for once...or chop my mother's ass. I'm still young and can't live without my hands."
Mr. Li was unmoved.
When He Lin saw this, he immediately threw himself at Aunt Fang's feet: "Mrs. Fang, can you please let me go? It's my mother who offends you, it's none of my business. Maybe you'd be happier if you cut off her hand than mine.
!”
Aunt Fang chuckled, bent down and patted He Lin's face: "You are so cute!"
Then he looked at Jiang Hui: "Mrs. He San, what do you think? Is it going to kill you or He Lin? You should tell me!"
Jiang Hui didn't want to chop off her son, but she didn't want to chop off her own hand either. Looking at the thugs filling the yard, she felt a little desperate: "Can I pay off these debts with my life?"
Aunt Fang laughed again: "I said, death is the easiest. But before you die, don't blame me for not reminding you. Even if you get there this time, there will be another time... the next time... hahahaha...
"
She smiled proudly and arrogantly. Jiang Hui felt desperate and reached out to touch her chest. Looking at Aunt Fang's proud smile, she quickly took out a dagger and stabbed her chest!
Aunt Fang didn't expect that Jiang Hui would dare to take action in front of so many people. The dagger entered the flesh and turned around in it before being pulled out. Blood splattered on her chest, and she felt a sudden pain.
She hurriedly stretched out her hand to cover it.
But Jiang Hui didn't stop. After quickly stabbing Aunt Fang, while everyone was stunned, she swooped over and stabbed Mr. Li again.
Mr. Li had been hanging out for many years. When he saw her coming towards her, he subconsciously raised his foot and kicked her. Sensing her murderous intent, he kicked her hard and fast.
As soon as Jiang Hui's dagger touched his chest, he was kicked away and his whole body flew out and hit the wall.
The thugs on the side failed to protect the master. At this time, he reacted and pounced on him, punching and kicking him.
Jiang Hui was surrounded by people and felt pain everywhere in her body. Through the cracks in the crowd, she looked at her son who was holding his head not far away. From the beginning to the end, she did not even look at him to look towards her.
The pain in her body became more and more severe, and she also received several blows on her head. Warm liquid flowed down her forehead. Jiang Hui looked at the sky, and a mocking smile gradually appeared at the corner of her mouth.
Her life... was really in vain.
In a daze, she thought of Aunt Fang. She first came to this woman to cause trouble for that girl Jiang Yuning.
Or earlier... She thought of the sick Jiang Sheng. She had been jealous since she was a child. How could Jiang Sheng be loved by thousands of people for the same human being?
Jiang Hui had a mother-in-law who had been exposed to colds since she was a child. Whenever the weather changed, her waist and legs would hurt. After the mother-in-law asked for leave, she told the maid who reported back to her: This time, Mother Zhang is in such severe pain, I don’t know how severe it will be.
rain.
At that time, she had a thought in her heart. Her original intention was to make the couple suffer some hardships and make Jiang Sheng seriously ill after being exposed to the rain. Maybe he would die right then?
Unexpectedly, things went so smoothly, and the couple died together. Jiang Hui was sad for just a moment, and then she was filled with excitement about taking over the Jiang family... Unfortunately, her good luck seemed to have run out.
Who would have thought that the adopted little girl could be so ruthless?
Thinking of the harsh words that girl said, Jiang Hui had no doubt that she would really push herself into the mud again and again. Living... was too difficult.
Better to die!
Thinking of her daughter who had resented her for protecting her son before she left, the smile on Jiang Hui's lips became more and more cynical.
If she had known this...she would not be greedy for the Jiang family's property.
There were too many thugs, and by the time Mr. Li got so angry that he asked them to stop, Jiang Hui had already lost her breath.
He Lin reacted at this time and rushed over, shouting loudly.
At the end of February, Mrs. He San passed away.
Mr. He ran to the Li family to argue. He didn't know how to explain it, but soon after he came back, he started to prepare for the funeral.
Chu Yunli had been staring at people like Mr. Li, who had actually ruined many families. She couldn't stand it, so she secretly collected evidence of fraud in the gambling house, and a month later, she directly had people sue Mr. Li.
Go to court.
It would be fine if no one looked into the things he did, but if someone did, they wouldn't be able to get away with it.
Moreover, even he himself cannot count how many wrong things he has done and how many people he has harmed.
After learning that the gambling house was a fraud, many people rushed to the Yamen. As the owner of the gambling house, Mr. Li was sentenced to death even though he tried his best to defend himself.
Aunt Fang immediately left with the rest of the concubines.
In the autumn of that year, Mr. Li was interrogated and beheaded. The Li family was also hit hard and was reduced from a first-class merchant to a third-rate merchant. Chu Yunli did not come forward from the beginning to the end. They did not know that someone was involved in the incident at Mr. Li's gambling shop, so they just thought it was
Mr. Li did too many things and aroused public outrage.
The Li family has restrained themselves a lot, but none of the concubines who ran away after Master Li's accident ended well.
A year later, when Chu Yunli was pregnant, she heard that Mr. He wanted to marry again, but He Lin stopped her.
The father and son were strangers to each other. Of course Mr. He couldn't stand his son pointing fingers at him. In a rage, he had him locked up.
He Lin was not a good person either. He secretly seduced the maid next to Mr. He and asked her to give Mr. He a drug that would make him uncomfortable.
Mr. He is dying!
Naturally, he couldn't marry his step-brother. When he found out that it was his son who had done it, he was furious and kicked him out. No one tried to persuade him, and he even went to the family tree and crossed out He Lin, the unfilial son.
name.
He Lin was poor for the rest of his life. He wanted to return to the He family several times, and even persuaded his elders. Mr. He never let him in.
However, after Mr. He was injured, he became irritable and irritable. After a few years, he collapsed on the bed and could not get up. His concubines were somewhat resentful that he spent all their money on his legitimate son, and they only had face and affection for him.
Take good care of him. In the bustle of the He family's yard, he became completely alone.
What happened between this father and son was simply too bizarre. No one dared to write about it in the novel. Many years later, some people still talked about it as a joke.
After Chu Yunli gave birth to her child, someone sent twenty taels of silver to the Qin family in the outer city on the condition that they return to their hometown.
If the Qin family had expectations for this daughter before, they have really given up hope this year.
Seeing twenty taels was like picking up a pie falling from the sky. He hurriedly agreed and quickly sold the small yard in the outer city and moved out of the capital.
Chu Yunli never saw them again for the rest of his life.
After sending away the Qin family, Chu Yunli devoted all her attention to business and children. By the time she left, the Jiang family was already the richest man in the city. Not only was it famous in the local area, but also in several surrounding cities.
The eldest son, Jiang Chuanji, has also taken over the Jiang family for decades, and everyone praises him for being outstanding.
After she left, the Jiang family became wealthy for many years. Many old people often talked about the past and would mention the adopted daughter of the Jiang family to their children and grandchildren. When everyone thought that the Jiang family would cut off the inheritance, she single-handedly
The Jiang family has prospered and can be called a strange woman in the contemporary era.
