Chapter Eleven Filling the Chest with Anger
"How lucky am I?" Jiang Chen looked puzzled.
"Ha ha……"
Wang Baochang laughed ambiguously, patted his arm and said:
"It's like this. My cousin Wang Huan heard that your wife, maid, and cousin are all good at sewing clothes, and he wants to ask them to go to the mansion to help make clothes. I have agreed on your behalf!
Didn’t you say that you admire our Wang family? There should be no problem with such a small matter, right? "
Hmm? Sewing clothes?
Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment, and then his expression changed. A surge of anger rushed from his chest to his forehead, and his eyes instantly turned cold.
He frowned and looked at the extremely arrogant Wang Baochang and the sinister-looking Lu Wenbin, and said fiercely in his heart:
You damn bastards! Do you really think you can defeat me?
If you want to frame someone up, then frame them up? If you want money, then ask for money? If you want to harm my woman, then harm my woman?
Damn it! Since you won’t give me a way out, let’s see who dies first. If I destroy your Wang family and Lu Wenbin in this life, I, Jiang Chen, will not be considered a man!
Thinking like this, Jiang Chen took a deep breath, shook his head and refused: "Wang Baozhang, let's talk about this in a few days! My wife is planning to make two sets of clothes for me. Look, I bought all the fabrics.
.”
As he said this, Jiang Chen pointed at his cousin who was carrying large and small bags.
"Damn it! Is it more important that you make clothes, or that my cousin makes clothes?"
Wang Baochang slammed the table and stood up, staring at Jiang Chen fiercely and said: "Didn't you hear what I said clearly? I have already agreed for you!"
Who do you think you are?
Are you worthy of making the decision for me, Jiang Chen?
Jiang Chen's lungs were about to burst with anger, he forced himself to control his emotions and said:
"Wang Baozhang, please buy me two days. When my senior brother comes, I will give you another hundred guan, how about it?"
"Two hundred strings!"
Wang Baochang raised two fingers, looked at Jiang Chen with disdain and said: "Don't think that because your senior brother is a member of the Taoist sect, you are qualified to bargain with my Wang family, you are not worthy!
Be obedient and go back and enlighten your ladies and the others. Don't spread any bad gossip or do stupid things, otherwise my cousin will pull out your tongue. Do you hear clearly?"
"I understand! Farewell!"
Jiang Chen cupped his hands, lowered his eyes filled with murderous intent and was about to leave the tavern.
Seeing this, Lu Wenbin continued to find trouble with a happy face:
"Jiang, you earn several taels of silver every day, but you only bring a jar of wine and two kilograms of meat to Baozhang Wang. Do you want to send him away as a beggar? The daily interest of four hundred guan is more than this, right?"
"Tomorrow I will definitely bring back some more food and wine for the security guard. If Mr. Lu doesn't mind, I'll count you a share."
Jiang Chen took a deep look at Lu Wenbin who looked like a hanged man, then turned around and left.
My cousin quickly followed up with a panic look on his face and said urgently: "Brother Chen, they are trying to force Yueniang and Mingjie to die. What should we do?
Why don't you go ask Shopkeeper Pan? With Shopkeeper Pan's reputation in Bianjing..."
"Why are you panicking?"
Jiang Chen put on a relaxed and funny expression, looked at his cousin and said, "Why ask others for things you can solve yourself? What if Shopkeeper Pan doesn't want to get into trouble and refuses, how do you want me to get along with him in the future?
?”
"This...are you really sure of solving it? There won't be any accidents, right?"
My cousin looked at Jiang Chen nervously.
Jiang Chen's steps slowed down, he looked at his cousin and frowned and said, "I don't want to talk about this problem with you anymore. Remember, don't talk nonsense when you go back. I don't want Yueniang and Xiang'er to worry!"
"Okay, okay, my cousin must not talk nonsense, my cousin believes in you!"
The cousin smiled awkwardly at Jiang Chen, and then said with a hint of complaint: "Brother Chen, after all, I am also your cousin. Can your attitude towards your cousin in the future be a little bit..."
"I told you, I don't have a cousin who refuses to treat me to noodles!"
Jiang Chen shook his folding fan and walked forward quickly, arriving at the door of his house in less than a moment.
…
In the simple but neat courtyard of their home, Liu Yueniang and the little girl Xiang'er were embroidering flowers leisurely and calmly with candied fruits in their mouths.
Seeing her aunt and cousin Liu Mingjie sweating on their foreheads and racing against time to mend their clothes, Liu Yueniang couldn't bear to say:
"Auntie, let me and Xiang'er help you sew together, otherwise you won't be able to finish it when it gets dark, and you'll have to waste lamp oil."
"I can't do it, I can't do it. If Brother Chen finds out, I'm afraid she won't want to see my aunt anymore."
My aunt shook her head and refused. As she spoke, she couldn't help complaining: "Oh, Brother Chen just treats me like that. He doesn't have any respect for his cousin. If this gets out, he will be criticized.
Yueniang, you need to persuade him a little more in the future, how can a scholar not be filial and respect his elders?"
"elder?"
Jiang Chen opened the courtyard door with a sneer and walked in. He glanced at his aunt and said, "What kind of wishful thinking did you and my cousin have in letting me marry Yueniang? Do you think I don't know?"
If I hadn't fallen in love with Yueniang at first sight, we would have turned against each other long ago. You still expect me to be filial to you? Huh!"
Hmm...
Auntie lowered her head with embarrassment on her face.
Liu Yueniang's pretty face turned red, she glanced at Jiang Chen secretly, and couldn't help but feel a burst of sweetness and a little pride in her heart.
Liu Mingjie, on the other hand, was angry and stared at Jiang Chen with an arrogant look on his face: "What is love at first sight? You are just coveting your cousin's beauty.
Let me tell you, you'd better be more respectful towards my mother-in-law, otherwise when I become a noble person, you will have to..."
"Come, cousin, have a piece of Grandma Cao's meat pie, bought especially for you!"
Jiang Chen handed over a meat pie, then pointed to a basket placed by his cousin on the ground and said:
"I bought these eggs to replenish the health of my cousin, my wife, and Xiang'er. From now on, eat one every morning, and don't be reluctant to part with it. After you finish eating, I will buy more for you as a brother. Do you understand?"
"……Um."
Liu Mingjie took the meat pie and lowered his head with a red face.
Hmm...
The aunt rolled her eyes in depression and was speechless to her daughter.
Xiang'er couldn't help but smile. She looked Jiang Chen up and down, and said sweetly: "Uncle, you look really good in this outfit. You just look like the young master in the drama."
"What do you mean by resemblance? Absolutely! The little girl really can't speak!"
Jiang Chen touched her little head in a funny way, then pointed to a basket and said: "Go get something to eat. In addition to the meat cakes, I also brought you some cooked meat and fruit wine. There is no need to make dinner today.
.”
"Thank you, uncle, you are so kind to me and my lady."
Xiang'er jumped onto the basket happily.
Liu Mingjie's eyes were full of envy, and his aunt even warned her with a look of displeasure: "Brother Chen, there will be a long time to come. There will always be times when money is urgently needed. You can't spend every penny you earn..."
