The Only Favorite Ugly Husband

Chapter 18 discusses countermeasures

Jiang Chengxiang lives in the county and has enough income to support himself, but the Jiang butcher, Mrs. Jiang, not only does not take money from him, but instead sends him food, vegetables and eggs from time to time, various subsidies, so that Jiang Chengxiang does not need to spend at all Money to buy rice and vegetables to eat, but recently the Jiang family has a lot of things to do, Jiang Zhen acts as an uncle at home every day to scare people, which makes them forget about giving Jiang Chengxiang something.

Now that he had made a decision, Butcher Jiang began to pack up the things he wanted to give to Jiang Chengxiang.

I need to bring more food, after all, now that the third child has a daughter-in-law, there are two people eating, and I need to bring more vegetables. It is too worthless to spend money to buy from others...

And apart from these two things... In the past, Butcher Jiang would bring some fish, shrimp and eggs every time he went to the city, but this time they were all gone.

There were only two chickens left in the family, and Jiang Zhen killed one, not to mention eating two eggs a day. How could their family have extra eggs for Jiang Chengxiang?

There are also fish and shrimp. In the past, Boss Jiang hired out the work in the field, and the butcher Jiang had time to find fish and shrimp. Now Jiang Zhen is unwilling to do any work, and old man Jiang is almost exhausted. Empty to catch fish?

Finally, only the vegetables and food were packed, and Butcher Jiang set off.

After carrying the load for half an hour, Butcher Jiang arrived at Hecheng County.

The canal runs through Hecheng County, and there is a big wharf here, so the county is very lively.Butcher Jiang came here often, but he still felt a little uneasy looking at the people passing by.

The houses in the county are all made of wood, and they are built close to each other by the river, but there are also walking paths on the river bank. Jiang Butcher walked along the road paved with bluestone slabs, and it didn’t take long. , came to a log cabin.

Hexi Village is not far from Hecheng County, and Butcher Jiang came here counting the time, and it was time for lunch when he arrived at Jiang Chengxiang's place.

Jiang Chengxiang was in charge of keeping records for people on the pier. Because the coolies on the pier would take a break to eat at noon, he could go home for dinner. He was at home right now, and when he saw Butcher Jiang, he greeted him immediately Go in: "Father, you are here."

"Father, come in and drink some water." Zhu Shufen took out a big bowl of black tea and called Butcher Jiang.

Butcher Jiang often came here for his son. He put down his burden and sat down, and said, "Chengxiang, dad brought you some food."

"Father, you came here with a burden again? Next time, you should come by boat, or you will be too tired." Jiang Chengxiang said with concern.

"Yeah, Dad, are you tired after traveling so far?" Zhu Shufen was talking while looking at the things brought by Butcher Jiang.

After reading it, Zhu Shufen's expression couldn't help but change.There were many reasons why she was willing to marry Jiang Chengxiang, one of which was that Jiang Chengxiang lived alone in the county town and didn't have to pay money to his family, but the family would send food from time to time, there was no shortage of eggs, fish, etc. .

But now?Where did the eggs come from, where did the fish come from?Only worthless vegetables were delivered!

The Jiang family even has an uncle who looks like a lunatic...

Zhu Shufen felt that she had been cheated, and was immediately upset.

But even though she was unhappy, Zhu Shufen didn't say anything or show it. Naturally, Butcher Jiang didn't know what his daughter-in-law was thinking.

Seeing his most promising youngest son, Butcher Jiang couldn't help complaining about his disgusting elder son.

"Third brother, your eldest brother is really hateful, is there any way you can make him submissive?" Butcher Jiang finally asked after talking about the "evil things" that Boss Jiang had done.

After Jiang Chengxiang got married, he returned to the county seat. These days, he and his wife lived happily ever after, so he didn't even think about going home to have a look.

However, even though he didn't go home, he still misses his family, and in his opinion, Boss Jiang, even if he was raped once because he almost died, he will eventually become weak in the future.

As a result... he has been making noise all these days without stopping?

When did Boss Jiang become so courageous?

After Jiang Chengxiang heard what Jiang Tuhu said, his face was full of disbelief, and he asked in detail again. After he asked all the ins and outs clearly, his expression relaxed: "Father, don't worry, this matter will be settled."

"Is it really easy to solve?" Butcher Jiang frowned: "Your elder brother is fierce, if this continues, life at home will be difficult!"

"Father, I think he was just trying to frighten you. From the beginning to the end, none of you were hurt, right?" Jiang Chengxiang said: "He probably had anger in his heart, so he acted like a bully at home, but he didn't Dare to do anything."

"Even if he's just threatening, we have to find a way to deal with him. We can't beat him..." Butcher Jiang sighed.

"Let's go and scare him too." Jiang Chengxiang said, looking confident, his eldest brother is just an illiterate and rude mud leg, in his opinion, it is too easy to deal with such a person.

Right now, there are two ways to deal with his elder brother. One is to threaten him to separate the family and drive him out of the house... But this is definitely not possible—what if his elder brother really agrees in a fit of anger?

Although Jiang Chengxiang was young, he saw things very clearly. He naturally knew that it would be good for him to keep Boss Jiang at home.

Boss Jiang is not married and will not have children in the future. If he stays at home, he will be helping his two brothers for a lifetime... Although this is unfair to his elder brother, it is good for him, and people... It's always selfish.

Because of these, Jiang Chengxiang didn't want to mention the separation of the family, so he had to use another method, which was definitely better than threatening Boss Jiang to separate the family.

"How to scare him?" Jiang Tuhu asked.

"Father, I know a government servant in the county..." Jiang Chengxiang said slowly.What are ordinary people most afraid of these days?Isn't it the government?Many people obviously have not done anything bad, but they dare not pass through the gate of the government, and insist on taking a long detour.

Find a yamen servant to go back, and he will definitely scare his eldest brother.

"Is that adult willing?" Jiang Tuhu couldn't help trembling when he heard the word yamen servant.

"I have a good relationship with him, and he will definitely be willing." Jiang Chengxiang said, the yamen servant is in charge of the wharf, he has eaten wine with him several times, and the friendship is pretty good, if he asks that person to help him, he will definitely agree.

What's more, asking someone for a little favor and giving a red envelope afterwards is also a way to build relationships.

Jiang Chengxiang talked to Jiang Butcher again, and then kept Jiang Butcher for dinner.

Although Zhu Shufen's father is a scholar, his family is not rich and powerful, so she can do all the work at home. Before Butcher Jiang came, she had already prepared the meals.

A plate of garlic leaf tofu, a bowl of egg drop soup, and a bowl of stir-fried vegetables look simple, but because she puts more oil than Mrs. Jiang's, the taste of the dishes is far better than Mrs. Jiang's.

Butcher Jiang was so happy that he ate three bowls of rice in one go.

"Fortunately, I cooked dinner together when I was cooking today, otherwise I'm afraid there won't be enough food." Zhu Shufen said, feeling a little unhappy again.

There are guests, and the meal should be served to the guests first, so she only served half a bowl of rice.I thought Butcher Jiang would leave some food anyway, but he was not polite at all, and he ate all the dishes and rice upside down.

Looking at the scraped pot, Zhu Shufen, who was not full, felt depressed for a while.

How could Jiang Chengxiang know what his wife was thinking?Instead, she smiled: "People who do physical work in the countryside eat a lot. My mother can drink four big bowls of porridge."

Zhu Shufen glared at Jiang Chengxiang, and said, "Didn't you say that your father would bring you eggs every time? Why not this time? I've run out of eggs at home, and I'll go buy them tomorrow."

"Recently something happened at home, and it will be fine in the future... Shufen, you wait to buy some meat, and you are buying a roast chicken. I want to invite someone to dinner tonight." Jiang Chengxiang said, planning to call the yamen servant tonight Have a meal at home and go back tomorrow.

His big brother must be taken care of.

Jiang Zhen didn't know that Jiang Tuhu went to the county to discuss with Jiang Laosan how to solve himself.

He is quite satisfied with his recent life. These days, the original owner's emotions basically won't affect him. He already has enough understanding of this world, and his relationship with Brother Zhao Jin has been cultivated well... After a few days, he will be completely separated from the Jiang family, and he will be able to live his own life.

Jiang Zhen is in a good mood and lucky.

He caught a hedgehog while walking around this morning.This kind of food is quite common in Hexi Village, but because there is no meat to deal with and it is troublesome, everyone will not catch it and eat it, so he intends to take it back and show it to Brother Zhao Jin, and ask him if he wants it.

As a result, when he was halfway, someone stopped him and offered to trade him a fish for a hedgehog.

In the Jiangnan water town, there is a kind of people who don't have their own land or house, but only a boat.They live on the boat and make a living by fishing or ferrying. They are called people on board.

Jiang Zhen prefers to call them fishermen.

Although ordinary people in Hexi Village can catch fish, they do not make a living from it. These fishermen make their living entirely by catching fish. Of course, they also use fishing boats to help people transport goods to make money.

In the river beside Hexi Village, there is such a family of fishermen living on a fishing boat. They are a couple in their thirties with two children. They usually use nets to catch fish, and they also use special bamboo Put some earthworms in the baskets, and then put the bamboo baskets into the river to lure the fish—these bamboo baskets, after the fish go in, they can't come out.

Jiang Zhen has no work these days, and occasionally goes to watch them catch fish, and wants to learn some skills in catching fish, but he has never talked to them, so he was a little surprised when he was first stopped.

"I'll trade you a fish for a hedgehog, will you trade it?" asked the man in his thirties on the fishing boat.

"Change," Jiang Zhen agreed without hesitation, and was a little curious, "What do you want a hedgehog for?"

"Eating hedgehogs is good for the stomach." The man said, "My daughter-in-law has often had stomach pains recently."

Jiang Zhen met this man's daughter-in-law once, and only remembered that she was a very thin person, but he didn't see her appearance clearly. Now that he knew that this man was planning to give fish to his daughter-in-law, he readily gave the hedgehog to her. The other party, and that person gave him a heavy silver carp weighing several kilograms.

All Jiang Zhen caught these days were small fish and shrimps. He hadn't caught such a big fish before, so he decided to give the fish to Brother Zhao Jin to show off by the way.

As a result, before taking a few steps with the fish in hand, Jiang Zhen saw a boat parked by the river. At the same time, Jiang Laosan and a man dressed as a yamen servant jumped out of the boat.
