I've been reborn, who still wants to be a cowardly little white flower?

Jiang Huai didn't know what to say for a moment. He naturally understood what his sister meant, but...

He was very unfamiliar with these words coming from the naive little sister.

"Give up the idea of ​​making money, study hard, and take first place in the next spring exam.

If I fail the exam, neither you nor I will have a good ending."

Jiang Huai's shoulders shook, knowing that his younger sister was not joking. Besides, how did she know that he had already found a job in the academy?

He has been studying hard since he was young and has a good foundation, so he thought about finding a job in the academy without affecting his studies.

Besides, the annual tuition at the academy where he studied was very expensive, plus living expenses, which was not a small expense.

Even if he and his sister saved all the monthly allowance from the government without eating or drinking, it would probably not be enough.

After my aunt took charge of the household, it was common for her to deduct their monthly allowances. When they were studying, they used the few silver coins given by my mother, which was barely enough to support them.

Now that my mother is gone, my sister has been ill for three months.

A few days ago, he went back to the mansion to visit Jiang Yuan. The maid beside her cried and complained that the mansion would not give her money for proper treatment. She had to secretly sell the money she had saved over the years and the jewelry that the lady had left to the young lady, and only then was she able to hire a doctor.

Otherwise, the girl would have died of illness long ago.

Therefore, he not only had to earn the tuition, but also had to provide for his sister's living expenses, who would depend on him in the future, so he hurriedly found a job in the academy.

Jiang Yuan knew what Jiang Huai was worried about. In his previous life, he found a job in the academy. Although the part-time work and study did not affect his studies, it was taken advantage of by some people with ulterior motives.

Something very valuable was lost in the place he was in charge of cleaning. He couldn't explain the situation, and although there was no evidence in the end and nothing was done to him, from then on, everyone in the academy avoided him and even tried to trip him up.

Jiang Huai was still affected by the long-term torture.

He failed the imperial examination the following year, and his aunt refused to give him money for his studies. Jiang Yuan cried all day long, was in poor health, and had problems. The tuition was very expensive, and he could not afford it, so he had to leave the academy.

"Don't worry about the silver. Whoever swallowed it will be spitted out by me.

Besides, I am the daughter of the Yun family." Jiang Yuan said.

Jiang Huai opened his eyes wide and tried to stop her, "No, have you forgotten that mother said that Yun's daughters will no longer make incense."

“Brother, Mom was deceived by Dad, and she is disheartened and made this vow.

If she knew that her own son and daughter would starve to death, would she still insist? Which is more important, the oath or the life and future of the child? "

Jiang Huai was speechless for a moment.

"Brother, don't think too much. Can you take the first place in the next spring exam?"

After a while, Jiang Huai nodded seriously, "Yes."

"That's good, go back, go back to the academy, don't come back if there's nothing else, don't hold me back."

Jiang Huai's mouth twitched. What? Holding her back? Is that reasonable? Is this what a sister and a brother should say?

"An An, I feel like you've become a stranger."

Jiang Yuan turned his head and looked at Jiang Huai, letting him see himself clearly, "Then I'll just think of it as, I've died once, God has mercy on me and let me live again.

It’s normal for someone who has died once to have some changes.”

Jiang Huai felt a chill down his spine. His sister was still the same sister, her appearance hadn't changed at all, but her eyes and cold words seemed like she had really gone through a lot of vicissitudes of life.

"A Yuan..." He couldn't help but call out Jiang Yuan's name. Her mother gave birth to Jiang Yuan prematurely, who was only the size of a kitten. She gave her the nickname An An, just wanting her to grow up safely.

What on earth had happened in these three months that had turned his sister, who was originally naive to the world, into someone so frightening with just a glance?

Jiang Huai's heart felt like it was hit hard by a branding iron, the pain was unbearable.

Jiang Yuan didn't respond, just looked at him.

Jiang Huai finally nodded to her seriously, straightened his back, and walked out of the ancestral hall.

He understood what his little sister meant. They, brother and sister, were not supposed to grow up carefree. Their mother had shielded them from all the storms in the past.

Jiang Huai knew the situation in the mansion, but he was taught by his mother to study hard, so he grew up too slowly and became sensible too slowly. He could sleep soundly in a dangerous place. No wonder his mother worried too much and passed away so early. As a son and a brother, he was very derelict in his duty.

His younger sister has grown up to a degree that breaks his heart. He can no longer be the same as before. He wants to be Lord Jiang, a Lord Jiang who can protect his younger sister.

Jiang Huai left, and Chunzhi knelt carefully beside Jiang Yuan, "Miss, let's go back too."

Her girl is most afraid of the ancestral hall. Today she stayed in the hall alone for so long. Where is the girl Luzhu? How could she not accompany the girl?

Just as she stood up, the door of the ancestral hall was pushed open again. Father Jiang saw her and snorted coldly, "Humph, you are not afraid now. Your elder sister is right. You were just pretending before."

The first time they met, Jiang's father was sarcastic. Jiang Yuan snorted, "Yeah, what should I do if my father finds out?"

Father Jiang was stunned. He thought Jiang Yuan would cry, beg for mercy, be stubborn, or even talk back, but he never expected that she would answer him in such a sarcastic tone.

"My father came to the ancestral hall to look for me. He didn't really do it just to see if I cried." Jiang Yuan turned around and faced the ancestral tablet again.

Father Jiang was choked and became angry. "You have become more eloquent after being sick."

"Really? Father knows that I'm sick? I thought my father was deaf and blind and didn't know."

"How do you talk like that?" Father Jiang was angry.

"Oh, I speak with my mouth, doesn't it mean that my father doesn't speak with his mouth?

If my father has nothing to tell me, I will go back."

He completely ignored the furious Father Jiang and turned away.

"Stop, do you still have any manners?"

"No."

"You..." Father Jiang was choked and finally realized that the daughter in front of him was so strange.

Jiang Yuan looked coldly at the man in front of him, who looked to be about 40 years old, and looked at him coldly, as if the person in front of him was not his daughter.

His eyes are like those of a vulture, his lips are too thin, and he looks completely heartless and disloyal.

It was the first time that Father Jiang saw such a look on Jiang Yuan’s face, cold, hateful, and threatening.

For some reason, a flash of fear flashed through his mind.

Clearing his throat, Father Jiang spoke, "Your elder sister is about to reach the age of marriage. To make it easier for her to find a husband, I have decided to make Qiu Niang my legal wife."

"It's only been three months since my mother passed away, and my father has already lifted up his wife. Aren't you afraid of being ridiculed?"

"Humph, I am informing you, not asking for your opinion. Aunt Qiu has been with me for many years and has given birth to a son and a daughter. She should be promoted to a co-wife.

It’s not your turn to speak in this family.”

Jiang Yuan smiled, but his eyes were cold and terrifying, "Dad, are you telling this to all the ancestors in the house?"

"You, bastard." After cursing, Father Jiang looked at the rows of tablets with a guilty conscience.

"This is also for your sister's future. Since you are so unwilling, don't stay in the mansion to watch. After your grandmother's birthday, go to Huangjue Temple to pray for the family. You are not allowed to return to the capital unless I call you. Humph."

After saying this, Father Jiang turned away.

Jiang Yuan looked at the tablets and said sarcastically, "Look at your descendants. Isn't this a case of the upper beam being crooked and the lower beam being crooked?"

As Jiang's father walked out of the door, he seemed to hear voices talking in the ancestral hall, but he couldn't hear clearly what was said, so he stopped involuntarily.

"Dad hasn't left yet, are you waiting for the ancestors to praise you?" Jiang Yuan said sarcastically as he walked past Jiang's father without looking back, leaving him furious behind him.

Chunzhi was already trembling with fear. With every word the girl said, her heart grew nervous, for she was afraid that the master would get angry and punish the girl.

I went all the way back to the yard, still shivering.
