Chapter 89 Scattering Wealth and Buying Righteousness

With his hair tied up, a light blue arrow robe, a sky blue horse-striped suit, a blue silk ribbon tied with his waist, Jiang Anyong's sword eyebrows and tiger eyes, was full of heroism, and he looked almost the same as Jiang Anyi. Seeing his younger brother growing from a thin child to a strong teenager, Jiang Anyi couldn't express joy.

Just as Jiang Anyi was about to step forward, a group of people surrounded him, leading the horse, slapped the gray, and stretched out Jiang Anyong's clothes. Jiang Anyong held his head and chest up, walked in with a group of people beside him, chatting and laughing, and walked into the house without looking at him.

Jiang Anyi didn't know any of these more than ten men. Why didn't he see so many idle people at home for half a year? Jiang Anyi was very unhappy and led the charcoal to the house.

"Stop." The four people in front of the door had just sent off the second master. Seeing Jiang Anyi dazed in, they shouted coldly and stopped Jiang Anyi in front of him.

"Boy, who are you? You dare to break into the top scholar's mansion. The county magistrate has to follow the rules when he gets here. Get out of here." The round-faced man has the most irritable temper. He reached out and grabbed Jiang Anyi's front and wanted to throw him out.

The door was in chaos and he could not enter his own door. Jiang Anyi had nowhere to start his nameless fire. Seeing the round-faced man trying to take action, he was in a deep mood. He leaned back slightly, grabbed the big hand that was stretched out with his right hand, folded it down hard, and his round face burst into pain. His waist bent down independently, and he almost knelt down at Jiang Anyi.

The three people next to them did not expect that Jiang Anyi would dare to take action. They rushed forward with a roar, raised their fists and legs, and greeted Jiang Anyi. Jiang Anyi held the charcoal in his left hand, and it was difficult to dodge, so he had to use force with his right hand. The round-faced man felt a force pulling him, and he couldn't help but fall horizontally, just hitting the other three people. The four of them fell to the ground like a gourd.

The fight alarmed the people in the yard, and more than a dozen men rushed out of the yard. Some of them were holding wooden sticks and whips in their hands, and they didn't say much, and then knocked Jiang Anyi viciously. If the stick was hit hard, the head would be broken and bloody, and the brain would be broken. Why did they become a bandit's nest? Is this still my own home?

Jiang Anyi raised his right hand, lucked on his arm, and protected him on his head. Three wooden sticks hit his arm heavily. With a "click", the jujube wooden stick was broken. The person who used the stick had no effort at all, and he was determined to knock him down in the future. Seeing that the wooden stick was useless, someone took out a dagger and smiled and surrounded Jiang Anyi with a grim smile. More than a dozen circled Jiang Anyi in the middle.

"Stop." Jiang Anyong heard the sound and walked out of it, pulled everyone away and shouted: "Why don't you get out of here, this is my brother."

"Brother, when did you come back? My third uncle also said you want to stay in Beijing for a while." Jiang Anyong opened his hand affectionately and hugged his brother, smiling: "Brother, I'm almost taller than you. Go in quickly. Mom doesn't know you're back."

Those men were stunned. It turned out that the old man had gone home. No wonder he went straight in, but we couldn't blame us. We didn't know the old man, why didn't the old man say something? Everyone smiled and greeted him, "Hello, uncle", "I misunderstood just now", "Don't be surprised by uncle"...

Jiang Anyi let his younger brother hold his shoulders and walked in without expression. Seeing Uncle Wang coming hurriedly, he handed the reins to Uncle Wang, and ordered "Good care". Along the way, the servants and maids were hiding by the road, but Jiang Anyi didn't know each other. The house was redecorated, and the flowers and plants were placed in particular, adding a lot of scenery, and the corridor was decorated more.

"The house expanded once after the spring, and two more people were added to the back. There were too many people in the family and could not live there." Jiang Anyong introduced on the side. Jiang Huang and Yan'er had already greeted him. A group of servants were dressed in silk, beads, and dressed in a noble lady. There was no such thing as a peasant woman. Yan'er next to her was also gorgeous. She hadn't seen her for half a year and her family became strangers.

"Yi'er." Jiang Huang's choking cry was still familiar. Yan'er rushed over and hugged her brother and said, "I miss Yan'er so much." Jiang Anyi hugged Yan'er and said, "Brother miss you too, brother misses home in his dreams."

Kneeling on the ground, Jiang Anyi paid a visit to Jiang Huang on a grand occasion and said, "My son is not at home all year round. If you have time, your mother is worried about her. If your son is unfilial, she will forgive her for her crime."

Jiang Huangshi wiped her tears and said, "Yi'er, what are you saying? You can glorify your ancestors. It's too late for your mother to be happy, and your father will be happy even in the underworld."

When he entered the room, the servant and maid fell to the ground. After seeing the old man, Jiang Huang hurriedly asked someone to arrange food. After a while, the eldest uncle and second uncle received the news and arrived with their cousins ​​at home. The whole family sat and chatted and laughed.

There were people serving cups and plates, including delicacies from mountains and seas, serving tea, water, wine and cloth dishes. Jiang Anyi was not used to it. When he looked at his mother, uncle and others, he felt normal. Since he entered the door, everything that happened at home made Jiang Anyi feel uncomfortable. He glanced at the people on the table and Jiang Anyi asked, "Why didn't Mr. Zhou come?"

As soon as the room was quiet, Jiang Huangshi smiled and said, "Mr. Zhou has something to do at home and has returned home two months ago."

Everyone looked a little nervous. Jiang Anyi knew that this was not that simple, so he held back his anger and stood up and smiled, "I'm a little tired all the way. Let's go and rest first, you can eat."

When he returned to his residence, Jiang Anyi checked the ground and the place where the gems were hidden was safe and sound. Sitting at the table, Jiang Anyi frowned and thought about his thoughts. The family must be rectified in this way, otherwise the disaster will not be far away.

Jiang Huang took Yan'er in, and Jiang Anyi quickly stood up and gave up his seat. Jiang Huang said, "Yi'er, I already know what happened when I entered the door. Yong'er said that you will scold those people later. Don't take it to heart. You are the backbone of the family. If you are unhappy, everyone will feel uneasy."

"Yes, brother, you are afraid of Yan'er with a dark face."

Jiang Anyi pinched Yan'er's little face and smiled, "You did nothing wrong, what are you afraid of? Did Mr. Zhou get angry with you?"

"No, it's the second brother." Yan'er shouted in a hurry, then she let out her mouth and stuck out her tongue, saying, "Brother, don't be angry with the second brother. He always thinks about practicing martial arts and doesn't want to study. It's because his cousin and the others are not obedient, so Mr. Zhou is angry and wants to leave."

"I gave Mr. Zhou twenty taels of silver, and did not treat him badly." Jiang Huang said disrespectfully: "It's all a family, don't get involved because of a trivial matter. Your uncle and others are a little afraid of you now, so let me come and find out why you are angry."

"A small thing?" Jiang Anyi finally couldn't help but start to attack and said, "Mom, I'm not at home for half a year, what's the way my family has become?"

"What's wrong, isn't the family good? After the news of your first prize came, County Magistrate Chen was respectful when he saw his mother. The Master of the Yu family often came to visit him and sent him here and there. Many people volunteered to give the land to our family, and the whole family devoted their family to our family to do things. The family was much prosperous than before. Mom knew that this was all your credit for Yi'er." Jiang Huang looked at his son with pride.

Jiang Anyi smiled bitterly. Her mother was just a farmer woman and could not see that far. Compared with the changes that happened in front of her three years ago, she was deeply satisfied.

Holding Yan'er to her knees, Jiang Anyi said, "Mom, is our family still short of money?"

"Silly kid, our family is not short of money. The monthly bonus of the Ganzhi store you made is no less than 500 taels. Li Er said that he would transfer the dividends of the folding fan business to our family for 40%. Mom just calculated it casually. Our family's annual input is 60,000 taels."

Speaking of family business, Jiang Huang became endless, "My mother bought another 300 acres of land and nearly 1,000 acres of barren mountains. In addition, the land that others invested in our family's name recently, our family's land has 1,600 acres. Yi'er, our family is a landlord in the county."

"Mom, do you still remember the incident of owing second uncle two taels of silver and being forced to sell land?"

"Of course I won't forget that my family was so poor that they couldn't even eat enough to eat, and Yan'er was as thin as a skeleton." Jiang Huang looked at Yan'er leaning against Jiang Anyi's arms and sighed.

Jiang Anyi said firmly: "Our family has no worries about food and clothing now, and no one dares to bully us, but our family is short of things at the moment."

"Brother, what are you missing? I asked my second brother to buy it. If the county can't buy it, let Fatty brother go to Wenping Mansion to buy it." Yan'er smiled.

Jiang Anyi put Yan'er down, stood up and said, "Our family lacks benevolence and righteousness now, and we can't buy it with money."

Jiang Huang and Yan'er were both frightened by Jiang Anyi's solemn tone, and stared at Jiang Anyi with wide eyes.

"Three years ago, my family was poor, and now my family wore gold and silver, and I asked slaves to call me maids. The county magistrate is a regular visitor at home. It is because the children passed the imperial examination and their identities have changed. Those who gave the land to our family and sent it to our house to be slaves are just looking for the identity of the son, the top scholar. Once the son loses power, these will become a passing cloud. In a blink of an eye, the family will be broken, and even if they want to return to the three families, they may not be able to do so."

Yan'er was frightened and wanted to cry with her mouth flattened. Jiang Huang asked in panic: "Yi'er, are you getting involved in something? It's better if you don't work as an official. Our family still has land and a Ganzhi shop, which is enough for the whole family to live well."

Seeing that the girl was almost scared to tears, Jiang Anyi quickly squatted down and comforted her: "Don't be afraid of Yan'er, my brother just gestures like this, it's fake, it won't look good if he cries."

Jiang Huang breathed a sigh of relief and said angrily: "Yi'er, don't talk nonsense without any trouble. She was so scared that her mother's heart was 'flapping'."

After a while, seeing that the mother and Yan'er's expressions returned to normal, Jiang Anyi continued: "When my son entered the door, the guardians stopped me and refused to let me go. The round-faced one actually hit someone. Later, someone tried to kill him with a stick, and some fucked the knife. It was obvious that they did not take human life seriously."

Jiang Huang also changed his color and asked in surprise: "Yi'er, you are not injured. These bastards dare to attack you. These people were brought by Yong'er and your cousins, saying they were guarding the house and protecting the hospital. Why did they do so easily or seriously?"

"It's no longer a matter of slightness or seriousness. This group of people rely on our power to not take human lives seriously. If something happens, our family will definitely be the one who takes the blame in the end. If the matter is big, the government will not be able to protect our family. My son is just a top scholar. He is only a sixth-rank official. How many people in the world are staring at me and waiting for something to happen to me? If something happens to my son, everything in front of him will be nothing, and even those businesses will be taken away in a blink of an eye."

Jiang Huang stood up from the chair in shock and asked anxiously: "Yi'er, what should I do?"

Seeing that my mother had been moved by herself, Jiang Anyi slowed down and said, "Mom, you sit down first. Haven't these things happened yet? If you want to pass on your family for a long time, accumulating virtue and doing good deeds is the right way. You just said that our family is not short of money, so you don't want the land and people you deliver to your door, and you will return them all. Also, those tricked slaves will only hinder the master. Except for some of the people who are responsible, don't let them ruin our reputation."

"In the past, my mother and mother lived together and did everything by themselves. Aren't they living well? Don't they serve so many people, and let them work hard in the fields, and lazy people sent them away. The fields they bought by their own families were rented to others to plant. As long as they were rented for four cents, they might as well collect lower prices in the year of disaster. They would rush to do the things of repairing bridges and roads. If you can buy a good reputation with money, it's cost-effective."

Jiang Huang had no idea. Jiang Anyi said what he said, nodded repeatedly and said, "You are the head of the family. You have the final say in the matters in this family. I will call everyone tomorrow morning and you will arrange it."
