Xianyang, the Jiang family's house. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Ever since the only man in the family, the Ministry of Works, went to the disaster relief, the family has been shrouded in gloom.

Jiang Jingxuan's old mother, who washed her face with tears all day long, couldn't eat at all, knelt in front of the Buddha every day and chanted scriptures, wanting to pray for her only son. And Jiang Jingxuan's wife not only has to take care of her young daughter, but also try to comfort her mother-in-law and suppress the panic in her heart.

She knew that she couldn't fall, and once she couldn't hold on, her daughter and mother-in-law would be even more devoid of backbone. She had to be calm, she had to force a smile, and then, in the dead of night, she couldn't sleep, burying her face in the quilt and sobbing quietly, not daring to let people know.

She told her daughter that her father would be back soon and would bring her a lot of beautiful gifts. But how dangerous it is to go to the worst flooded places!

No one knows when he will come back, whether there will be any accidents, and whether he will come back alive!

"Bang! Bang! Bang! "Someone knocked on the door outside the yard again.

Ruan Jing's heart shrank suddenly, and there was a panicked look in her eyes. She can't be afraid, at this time, there is no one else except the Jiang family's clansmen!

A few days ago, the Jiang family's clansmen had already come once. It should have been heard from outside, saying that the flood in the southwest had been solved, and the officials who went to the disaster relief had also returned, and they specially came to visit Jiang Jingxuan, and also wanted to find a time to go to the restaurant to pick up the wind and wash the dust.

But Ruan Jing knew in her heart that it was fake to pick up the wind and wash the dust, and it was true to come to inquire about the news.

From the beginning of entering the door, those clansmen have been constantly looking at the furnishings in the home, the layout of the yard, the new and old furniture, the pen and ink in the study, etc., some people directly rolled up Jiang Jingxuan's collection of calligraphy and paintings, and even some people went to look through her makeup box, took her gold hairpin and put it on their heads.

She knew that these people thought that Jiang Jingxuan was dead, and it wouldn't be long before these things would be collected into the clan. Even, Jing Xuan's aunt deliberately grabbed her sleeve and touched her clothes, almost making her take them off on the spot.

Those people had sad faces, but their eyes were full of joy.

In order not to be kicked out of the house, she could only make up a lie, saying that she had received a letter from Jing Xuan, and that he was leading the victims to rebuild the embankment, and it would take a while to return.

Now, I'm afraid that this lie will be exposed.

"Jing'er, who's knocking on the door outside, why don't you deal with it?" The mother-in-law was noisy by the knock on the door, and she couldn't chant the scriptures and pray quietly, so she came out of the Buddhist hall to urge.

"Mother, I ......" Ruan Jing wanted to tell her mother-in-law about the current situation at home, but she couldn't bear to be frightened by her mother-in-law, so she had to swallow back the words that came to her mouth.

"Okay, no matter who comes, send them away as soon as possible. There are only female dependents left in our family, so we must pay attention to avoid suspicion! No guests are allowed to enter until King Heen returns. The mother-in-law looked at her daughter-in-law with a cold face and a reproachful expression.

Since her son went to disaster relief, it has been difficult for her to calm down, and the more she looks at her daughter-in-law, the more unpleasant she becomes. Obviously, Jingxuan went to such a dangerous place, but he didn't see this woman worrying at all. In recent days, her behavior has been even more strange, as if she is secretly hiding something.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! "The knocking on the door is getting louder and louder.

After knocking a few times, there was no response, and someone started slamming on the door.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! The sound became louder and louder, like the roar of a beast in the mountain, and like a boulder rolling down from the top of the mountain, smashing on Ruan Jing's heart one after another.

"What's going on? What are you provoking outside again? Old Madam Jiang's face became even more gloomy, and she felt more and more unpleasant when she looked at Ruan Jing.

"Mother, it's the Jiang family's clan......" Ruan Jing couldn't hold back the despair in her heart anymore, and her voice cried patheticly, as if she had completely collapsed.

"They say, Jing Xuan can't come back, can't come back......" Ruan Jing's tears fell, she had held on for so long, and finally she was completely desperate at this moment.

Countless days of worry and apprehension, countless days of antifies and prayers, I didn't expect this to end up like this.

"Boom!" The clansmen of the Jiang family broke open the door, and Uncle Jiang rushed in first, pointing at Ruan Jing's nose and scolding: "Cheap woman, dare to lie to me!" Do you think that if you don't open the door, you can occupy my Jiang family's things? It's up to you to stay with our Jiang family's mansion?! ”

The Jiang family's things, the Jiang family's mansion!

As long as Jiang Jingxuan is gone, and no man in the family can inherit the family business, then everything here belongs to the Jiang family and should be owned by the Jiang family.

"Quick, quick, I've long taken a fancy to her bracelet!" Jiang Jingxuan's eldest aunt, a handful of old women, rushed up happily at this time and stroked the bracelet on Ruan Jing's hand.

"You let go of me! This is my dowry! It's not your Jiang family's thing! Ruan Jing desperately withdrew her hand, trying to protect the bracelet on her hand.

It's not that she's greedy, it's that Jiang Jingxuan's everything has been taken into the clan, and the only thing she has left is her own dowry. If she loses these dowries again, what will she use to support her daughter, and to provide for her mother-in-law to die?!

"What dowry? You are the daughter of a small family, how can you have any dowry? Hasn't it been subsidized for a long time? This is my nephew's belonging, why is it on your hand? The eldest aunt was unceremonious, and scratched Ruan Jing's arm, leaving a few blood-red marks.

"Oh, be careful, don't tear this outfit! The material of this dress is good, and if you send it to the pawnshop, you can exchange it for a few big bucks! It was Jiang Jingxuan's aunt who spoke.

According to the rules of the clan, all clansmen can participate in eating out households. It's just that a squire like Uncle can naturally share a little more, while Jiang Jingxuan's uncle is just an ordinary small landlord, and he doesn't have any identity that he can handle, so he can only share some scraps.

However, Jiang Jingxuan is a waiter in the Ministry of Industry after all, and there are a lot of people alone! Even if there was only a little scrap left, it would be enough for them to rejoice for a long time.

"The old man's son is not dead! Do you not exist as old men? Old Madam Jiang glanced at them coldly, her eyes were extremely cold and powerful.

"Brother and sister, don't you think that you can have any chance to turn around this time?" The uncle glanced at her coldly, his eyes were ruthless and ruthless, with a little mockery.

"If you know each other, hand over the deed and title deed, and I can spare you orphans and widows! Otherwise, don't blame me for throwing you out on the street and selling your granddaughter and daughter-in-law into the bar! Jiang Jingxuan's uncle stared at Ruan Jing salivatingly. The eyes were naked, with endless filth and unbearable.
