The Only Favorite Ugly Husband
Chapter 22
Jiang Zhen tied Yang Jiang's upper body firmly with a rope, and took Yang Jiang into the kitchen. The big meal was the biggest meal in the world, and he was hungry after all the fuss.
Mrs. Jiang had already prepared lunch, probably because Jiang Chengxiang would come back today and brought the servants back, so she made it quite rich.
A pot of fragrant white rice was boiled in a large iron pot, and a bowl of bacon, a bowl of steamed eggs, and a bowl of garlic were steamed on the steaming rack above, and uncooked vegetables and tofu were placed beside it.
Jiang Zhen eats an egg every day these days, and even eats some small fish and shrimps with Brother Zhao Jin at night, but he has not eaten meat for several days. When he saw the bowl of thinly sliced and steamed bacon, he could smell it. The smell of meat, I just feel that I can eat the whole pot of rice with bacon.
Picking up a piece of bacon with chopsticks and stuffing it into his mouth, Jiang Zhen immediately took a bowl for rice.
Those small fish and shrimps lack oil and salt when they are cooked, and the taste is really not good. Although he eats some every day for the sake of his body, he has long been tired of eating, but this bacon is different...
With the bacon, Jiang Zhen began to munch on big pieces, and after eating two large bowls of rice in one go, he reluctantly put down the bowls and chopsticks.Boss Jiang's stomach has long been stretched by eating porridge all year round, so he can actually have two more bowls of rice, but eating too much will affect his actions, so he just endured it.
Anyway, with the yamen servant in hand, he doesn't have to worry about running out of food.
While Jiang Zhen was eating, the Jiang family was discussing with the village head and some other villagers on the drying ground outside the Jiang family what to do next.
All of them felt that Jiang Zhen's arrest of a yamen servant should not be known to outsiders, let alone reported to the officials—if Jiang Zhen was angered, Jiang Zhen might make the matter worse!
In this case, they can only try their best to meet Jiang Zhen's request.
"40 taels of silver! Where did our family get 40 taels of silver? Even if we sold me, we wouldn't be able to get so much money!" Mrs. Jiang sat on the ground, crying, but she didn't want to pay.
The life of Jiang's family is good, and the family's wealth is considered solid, but 40 taels of silver... I really can't get it out at the moment.
A few months ago, their family still had 60 taels of silver, but Jiang Chengxiang took 30 taels as a betrothal gift, and spent 20 taels on various things in order to be decent. Up to now, Mrs. Jiang has a total of only [-] taels. It's just seven or eight taels of silver.
"I still have some money, I'll get it later, we have to scrape together enough money and give it to him." Jiang Chengxiang said, Yang Jiang is still in Jiang Zhen's hands.
"Old man, how much money do you have?" Jiang Butcher asked.
"I don't have any money, but Shufen has it. I should be able to get ten taels out of it." Jiang Chengxiang said, he works in the county for a lot of money, and he gets two taels of silver every month, but he has only worked for two years in total. Naturally, I couldn’t save too much money, and I posted that little money when I married Zhu Shufen—the Zhu family’s original betrothal gift was 40 taels, but Mrs. Jiang was only willing to give 30 taels, so he had to post ten taels by himself. .
However, he has no money, but Zhu Shufen has money.
Butcher Jiang suddenly became irritable: "You only have ten taels of silver at your place. Your mother and your second brother together estimated that it is only ten taels. Where can we find 40 taels of silver?"
"The one who killed a thousand knives, he wanted to force us to death! How can he be paid for his own work?" Mrs. Jiang cried even more when she heard that Butcher Jiang had exposed his family background. I don't want to take the money out.
In the past, Jiang Chengxiang would definitely coax Mrs. Jiang at this time, but he is not in the mood at all today.
Bowing to the people around him, Jiang Chengxiang said: "Everyone, our family really can't get out 40 taels of silver. I wonder if I can borrow some from you?" He discussed this matter in public with the idea of borrowing money from the people around him. .
Everyone in the village is here, and one family borrows some from another, and they can always get the money together, and they will pay off slowly in the future.
"Cheng Xiang, I'll lend you five taels of silver." The village chief Jiang Ping said, "I'm just a farmer, and I still have a few half-sized children in my family, so I won't be able to take out any more."
If it weren't for being the village chief, Jiang Ping wouldn't even be willing to hand over five taels of silver if Boss Jiang couldn't have killed the servant.
Obviously it was the Jiang family who treated Boss Jiang so badly that they drove Boss Jiang into a lunatic, so why should they take money?
Jiang Ping opened his mouth, and several members of the Jiang family more or less agreed to borrow money. Those who were more were willing to give two or three taels of silver, and those who were less could only take out one or two taels of silver.
After a while, counting the Jiang family's own 20 taels, they made up 37 taels.
Those in the village who have a good relationship with the Jiang family are willing to borrow money, but those who have a normal relationship with the Jiang family are not willing--the Jiang family has borrowed so much money this time, who knows how long it will take them to pay it back?
However, they are not willing to borrow money, they are willing to sell it elsewhere.A villager who often went to work at the wharf said: "Jiang Laosan, my family is poor and has no money, but I do have some strength. The thatched hut in the west of your village can't live in at all. If you want to move in, I'm afraid you have to rebuild the wall." , I'm good at this."
"After taking the money and asking for a house, that bastard is really shameless!" Mrs. Jiang said again.
The land in the west of the village is not big and not fertile, and they usually grow vegetables and beans casually, and the thatched cottage has long been uninhabitable. Too unhappy to give them to Jiang Zhen.
Butcher Jiang was actually reluctant, but he was really afraid of Jiang Zhen... Sighing, Butcher Jiang wanted to take someone to the west of the village, but before he could open his mouth, he saw Jiang Zhen dragging Yang Jiang out of the village. The kitchen is out.
"I knew that bastard was so hateful, I should have given birth to him in the toilet, and poured a basin of water into him to drown him!" Mrs. Jiang didn't see Jiang Zhen, and was still cursing: "Why didn't he Go to death, obviously living is also a disaster!"
"Stop talking!" Butcher Jiang yelled at Mrs. Jiang, and then looked nervously at Jiang Zhen.
Jiang Zhen pulled Yang Jiang and looked at the people outside with a half-smile, but as soon as Mrs. Jiang saw him, her voice stopped abruptly as if someone had strangled her throat.
"I remembered, the thatched hut is too dilapidated, and it takes a lot of effort to renovate. You should build me a new house next to it. There must be two big houses facing south, and the stove and iron pot must be missing. I want to build a hut..." Jiang Zhen made a bunch of requests, and finally said: "You guys better not try to cut corners, if you don't do well, maybe I will cut off a few pieces of meat from this official gone."
After finishing speaking, Jiang Zhen took a knife and made gestures on Yang Jiang's face a few times.
Yang Jiang had been slashed on the face by Jiang Zhen before, and his face was covered with blood. Now he looked extremely miserable, and it made people believe in Jiang Zhen's words.
This evil star, he really dares to cut up human flesh!
"Brother, we will definitely build the house for you. If you have something to say, don't be impulsive..." Jiang Chengxiang said quickly, he really regretted it now, if he had known that his elder brother was such a person, he would definitely not to offend him.
"If you want me to speak well, then go to work quickly!" Jiang Zhen said coldly: "By the way, I have also left my household registration independently. I don't want to get involved with you people!"
Seeing Jiang Zhen's fierce look, Jiang Chengxiang subconsciously took a few steps back.
Jiang Zhen was in a good mood watching him look like a coward, and didn't want to raise his eyes, but saw Zhao Jinge looking at him from outside the crowd.
Jiang Zhen: "..."
Is it too late for him to tell his brother Jin that he is actually a very reasonable person?
Jiang Zhen was a little worried, but soon, he let go of his heart again - Brother Zhao Jing looked at him with worried eyes, but there was no such emotion as disgust.
He knew that his brother Jin liked him very much, and he would definitely not hate him.
Jiang Zhen wanted to laugh a little, coughed twice before he could really laugh.After all, he didn't show his vicious expression to scare people anymore, but pushed Yang Jiang, who was bound by his hands, into Jiang Laosan's room, and said to the people outside: "I'll sleep for a while, you'd better give me the matter quickly." done!"
With that said, Jiang Zhen closed the door with a bang.
Brother Zhao Jin looked at the closed door and became even more worried. That guy Jiang Zhen actually made a move on the yamen servant. Is he all right?
Brother Zhao Jin was working for Dahu Zhao as usual today, but he didn't expect that halfway through the work, he suddenly heard that something happened to Jiang's family.
Something happened to the Jiang family?Will something happen to Jiang Zhen?Thinking that in the past even if he didn't come to talk to him, he would always hang around in front of him a few times, and Jiang Zhen, who would even come to call him for dinner at noon, didn't even show a shadow today, Brother Zhao Jin couldn't help feeling anxious.
Not in the mood to work anymore, he informed Zhao Dahu's family, then went back to the village, and saw many people surrounded by Jiang's gate.
Before he could find out anything, Brother Zhao Jin saw Jiang Zhen coming out of the main room with a servant in his arms, and the servant still looked ravaged...
What exactly is going on?
Brother Zhao Jin watched Jiang Zhen enter Jiang Laosan's house, pulled a Shuang'er who had come to watch the fun, and asked.
"It seems that Jiang Laosan brought a yamen servant back and wanted to arrest Jiang Boss and put him in jail, but Jiang Boss turned around and caught the yamen servant." The pair broke away uncomfortably and looked at Zhao Jinge who was similar to a man. hand, and sighed again: "What can we do now? There is a man who beats the government servants in our village. Do you think that the government servants will come to our village to collect taxes in the future? Will they charge a lot more?"
"This Boss Jiang is going too far. Not to mention beating his parents and brothers, he even beat the government servants!" someone beside him interrupted.
"Yes, this person is too much! I think Mrs. Jiang is right, he is really not a thing, no wonder Jiang Laosan wants to find the yamen servant to arrest him." You said humanely.
"Keep your voice down, don't let that evil star hear you!" a timid person said.
Everyone shut up together. Now, none of them is not afraid of Jiang Zhen.
Everyone in the village was worried that if they offended the people in the yamen, they would get into trouble, but when Brother Zhao Jing heard what they said, he was worried about Jiang Zhen, and he hated Jiang Lao San very much.
What is he going to do now?Do you want to visit Jiang Zhen?Help him a little?
"Brother Jin, why are you here? Come home with me." Mrs. Zhao Liu also came to see the fun, but she didn't expect to see her son here. She stepped forward to hold Brother Zhao Jin's hand, and said: "Boss Jiang is crazy. He even beat the yamen servants. Let's go back quickly so as not to cause trouble."
Brother Zhao Jin trembled when he saw his mother's thin body, and took back his steps towards Jiang Zhen.
"Brother Jin, don't associate with Boss Jiang anymore, and don't take his fish. We can't afford to offend such an evil star." Mrs. Zhao Liu took her son to the house and walked for a while. After the road, he said to his son.
My son has been very close to Boss Jiang during this time, and he can't do this again in the future.
"Mother, he's not a bad person." Brother Zhao Jin couldn't help but defend Jiang Zhen.
"Mother saw it today, he can even kill his own father... Our family can't afford to provoke such a person, it's better to stay away." Zhao Liu said again: "And... people in the village don't like it now Him." They can't go against the villagers.
Brother Zhao Jin moved his lips and fell silent.
For the sake of his parents, he must not be able to go to Jiang Zhen in broad daylight, why not... go and have a look at night?
Mrs. Jiang had already prepared lunch, probably because Jiang Chengxiang would come back today and brought the servants back, so she made it quite rich.
A pot of fragrant white rice was boiled in a large iron pot, and a bowl of bacon, a bowl of steamed eggs, and a bowl of garlic were steamed on the steaming rack above, and uncooked vegetables and tofu were placed beside it.

"Cheng Xiang, I'll lend you five taels of silver." The village chief Jiang Ping said, "I'm just a farmer, and I still have a few half-sized children in my family, so I won't be able to take out any more."
If it weren't for being the village chief, Jiang Ping wouldn't even be willing to hand over five taels of silver if Boss Jiang couldn't have killed the servant.
