Chapter 31: Heartbreak
"How can there be a little lady." Jiang Zhongrong pursed his lips: "There are a lot of worries, and there is nothing important, but you, who have been busy for my business recently, I can't intervene yet, I have worked hard for you." β
"Don't digress from the subject, what the hell is going on." Speaking of this, Bang Yue suddenly woke up: "You won't be because of that Beiping Hou, yesterday or the other day Jiang Xiaoxiao went out with him, are you angry?" β
"How is it possible, I have nothing to be angry about." That being said, but the Gu Bing drink Yanbian was still bubbling with cold air, but he drank it in one gulp.
That day, Jiang Zhongrong met them in Lao Cai.
It's strange, he hasn't seen Jiang Xiaoxiao smile like that, he is innocent and shy, and the blush climbs up his cheeks, as if the sky is about to turn red sunset, and his eyelashes are nervously fluttering.
At that moment, he suddenly felt that his sister had grown up.
The older you get, the more annoying it gets.
Even though Bei Pinghou didn't smile, the temperature under his eyes was not as cold as before.
So Jiang Zhongrong walked over and pretended to meet by chance.
At that time, Jiang Xiaoxiao had already advanced to the Xuanchang opera troupe, and Beiping was at the end.
When Jiang Zhongrong walked over, he happened to be hit by a child who was playing and running fast, and the child apologized repeatedly: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." β
He comforted him a few words, and as soon as he raised his head, he saw Bei Pinghou attracted by the sound, and looked towards him, one foot on the bluestone street, motionless.
He nodded awkwardly and politely: "Master Hou, what a coincidence." β
Beiping Hou glanced at him indifferently and asked, "Come to see the play?" β
"Passing by," Jiang Zhongrong raised the pastry he bought in his hand to cover up: "Come out and buy a cake that Bang Yue loves to eat, and now I'm going home." β
"Hmm." At the end he said, "How well you have treated her." With that, Beiping Hou slowly walked towards him.
Jiang Zhongrong saw him walk up to him, his mind was blank for a moment, and then he explained: "She treats me like a brother, she must be good." But is Master Hou going to Xuanchang to watch a play? β
"Well, your sister is also in there, do you want to come along?"
This Beiping Hou has sent him an invitation, can he refuse? Of course, I can't touch Beipinghou's face, thinking about this, pretending not to know: "My sister is also in it?" She is lively by nature, and if there is a place that disturbs Beipinghou, please take care of some of it. β
Beiping Hou didn't move, and looked at him with lowered eyes, quite condescending: "Don't be so polite." β
Jiang Zhongrong always felt that when Beiping Hou finished saying this, he seemed to be a little smiling, he felt that he was wrong, and blinked his eyes, and Beiping Hou's expression had returned to normal.
The two of them walked to the opera garden together, Jiang Zhongrong didn't know why, he was a little nervous in his heart, Jiang Xiaoxiao likes Beipinghou, this is something that everyone can see, he also knows that Xue Wan has been pushing Jiang Xiaoxiao to Beipinghou, and he doesn't know what psychology, for this kind of thing, there will always be a very gloomy mood.
In a daze, Jiang Zhongrong had already stepped on the stone steps, and he didn't pay attention to his feet, but he actually planted it forward.
Beiping Hou was quick and grabbed him, he only felt a tightness around his waist, and he was actually caught by Beiping Hou with one hand, and then pulled back.
Jiang Zhongrong stood still, and couldn't help blushing: "I'm sorry, I was distracted for a while." β
After speaking, he also clearly sensed the strength of his waist, Beiping Hou still maintained a posture of half-holding him, and the two of them stood ambiguously at the gate of the opera garden, people came and went, and there were already people's attention, and it fell on them.
Bei Pinghou's temperament seemed to be really light, and he didn't mind the eyes of others at all, and after slowly moving his hand, he said, "Don't get in the way, next time you walk carefully." β
After Jiang Zhongrong was let go by him, he was a little lost, the temperature between his eyes was slowly draining, and he was stunned, and his wrist suddenly felt cold, but it was Beiping Hou who took the initiative to hold his wrist and said indifferently: "Let's go." β
Jiang Zhongrong looked at his wrist in a daze, and followed his steps inside, he felt that he was like a child at the moment, being led by his big brother to go inside, and in a trance, he remembered the scene of the first meeting in front of the pastry shop a few years ago, and suddenly felt a little warm.
Just like now.
The memory of that day was actually not very clear, after Jiang Zhongrong took a seat, Jiang Xiaoxiao seemed to be a little dissatisfied and asked: "Oh, brother, why are you here?" β
Jiang Zhongrong asked coldly, "Why can't I come?" β
Jiang Xiaoxiao touched his emotions, obediently sat back in place, and did not speak.
The Yiren on the stage babbled, and the audience was full of guests watching the joys and sorrows.
Jiang Zhongrong's mind was naturally nowhere to go, he felt more and more strange about himself, it seemed that he hated Jiang Xiaoxiao because of Xue Wan in the past, but now, the reason for this annoyance seemed to slowly begin to shift, moving to a place that he felt inexplicable.
Later, Chang Lin came to quietly report something.
After Beiping apologized, he left the venue early.
So he left on his own.
When he told Bang Yue about this, Bang Yue smiled and looked up mercilessly: "I really think you are happy with Beiping, really." β
"What is true and false." Jiang Zhongrong rolled his eyes: "I'm a real man, not a little woman's family, maybe it's the arrogant aura on his body that resembles me, so I feel very comfortable with him." β
Come on, the authorities are confused, and the bystanders are clear.
Bang Yue didn't hesitate to care about these, but he felt that after a long time, he would slowly understand.
But before I understand, there is one thing that is not expected by Bang Yue.
It rained in the capital for three days in a row, lightning and thunder in the west of the city, storms and rain in the east of the city, and the water in the north of the city accumulated to people's ankles, and the south of the city school also ended early in the morning, the old master knocked on the table to listen to the rain, and then watched the students walk into the rain curtain.
Outside the house, the gray fog was cloudy, and the trees wanted to be quiet and the wind did not stop, blowing from time to time, sweeping away thousands of fallen leaves.
Bang Yue came back from Huang Ying'er, holding the newly made clothes for Jiang Zhongrong, and before she entered the door of Long Academy, she saw Tao Chun rushing out and crashing into her umbrella.
"Bang Yue, you're back, that's great."
Seeing that she was so anxious that she didn't have an umbrella, Bang Yue asked puzzledly: "What are you doing in a hurry, and the umbrella is not played." β
Tao Chun stuck in his waist and waved his hand, took a deep breath before saying: "Bang Yue, go back and take a look, the second lady said that she was here to find the young master, but somehow, just now there was the scream of the young lady, and the sound of things smashing, we were about to go in, the young master was very fierce, and he was not allowed to come in." β
Hearing this, Bang Yue's footsteps had already begun to move, and He Taochun asked as she walked, "What did Jiang Xiaoxiao suddenly come to Jiang Zhongrong for?" β
"I don't know. But the second lady wanted to come in, and we didn't dare to stop it, so we went to report it, and the young master agreed to let it in. β
"Why didn't he go out today?"
"The old man went out today, the young master may have returned too late last night and was tired. Didn't go out with it. β
Bang Yue thought that the yard was also long, so she stuffed her clothes into her arms, and threw her umbrella together, so she ran in with her skirt.
Before pushing the door open, Bang Yue didn't hear a single movement.
It wasn't until I opened the door that I found that the house was in a mess, and everything that could be dropped was thrown everywhere, and there was almost no place to stay. On the table facing the door, Jiang Xiaoxiao sat on it, and Jiang Zhongrong was stuck in the center of her legs, his hands on her neck.
Bang Yue's eyes were quick, and she closed the door to cut off the curious people outside who heard the sound.
"Jiang Zhongrong." Ignoring the debris under her feet, she stepped over in a few steps and grabbed his wrist.
Jiang Zhongrong glanced at her with red eyes, this glance almost scared her legs weak, and the fierce light in his eyes flashed, like a wild beast, staring at her with horror.
But the strength of his hands has not diminished at all.
Seeing that Jiang Xiaoxiao was pinched by him, and if he didn't let go, he was afraid that he would lose his breath, so Bang Yue broke his hand hard: "Jiang Zhongrong, you let go for me!" What are you doing! β
Jiang Zhongrong said in a hoarse voice: "Don't worry about Bangyue. β
"No matter what, you let go, if she continues like this, she's going to die."
He was still unmoved, Bang Yue was so anxious that he panicked, looked around the house, gritted his teeth, and finally decided to pick up the fragments scattered at his feet, and threatened against his neck: "Jiang Zhongrong, if you don't let go, I will die in front of you." β
It can be described as a clichΓ©, Bang Yue couldn't help but roll her eyes in her heart, when she used to write scripts, she had seen many other people's scripts, and there would be this plot. At that time, she still felt vulgar, but she didn't expect it to happen to her in a blink of an eye.
But she couldn't think of any other way.
However, Jiang Zhongrong saw that there was some blood in her neck, and immediately let go.
Jiang Xiaoxiao was immediately like a puddle of mud, and was about to fall down in the direction of her head, but Bang Yue hurriedly threw away the sharp weapon in her hand, stepped forward and blocked it with her body.
Seeing Jiang Xiaoxiao fall into her arms without any reaction, Bang Yue was so frightened that she reached out to probe her breathing, but fortunately, she was not strangled to death by Jiang Zhongrong.
"Look, why don't you come over and help, don't let you lie on the bed and the ground, I can't hold it anymore."
Jiang Zhongrong glanced at her deeply, then reluctantly walked over and picked up Jiang Xiaoxiao, threw it aside at will, and lowered his head the whole time, and he didn't dare to look at Bang Yue because of his weak heart.
Bang Yue's mind was also blank, and it took a long time to ask, "Why?" β
Jiang Zhongrong sat on the side with her head downcast, she raised her head when she spoke, and then lowered her head again, and said in a muffled voice: "She said that she was not inferior to my mother, saying that my mother is dead." β
Bang Yue knows this, Jiang Zhongrong, who has the ability, has never given up looking for the whereabouts of his biological mother, but because it has been too long, he has learned too little information, and the aimless search is like looking for a needle in a haystack, and there is no news after searching for so long.
But she didn't believe it.
"Just because of that? Although Jiang Xiaoxiao is arrogant and rude, she won't run over just to say two excessive words? It can still provoke you to be so angry. β
Jiang Zhongrong seemed reluctant to answer, and always looked down at his toes without saying a word.
Bang Yue sighed, walked over and held his hand, only to find that there was a big hole in his palm, and blood flowed down his wrist into his sleeve.
At this time, Taochun's voice came from outside the door: "Bang Yue, what is the situation in the house, do you need us to come in and help?" β
"No, you don't." Bang Yue refused: "Guard the door and don't let people in, you ask Xia Ying to go to the family doctor to get some medicine for external injuries." β
"Okay."
After the instructions, Bang Yue fell on him again, and her voice was tepid: "I help you, I am not without selfishness, if you kill her, then everything I did before will be in vain, I don't care what you are for, only this once, next time I will be really angry." β
Jiang Zhongrong calmed down and nodded, he remembered that Jiang Xiaoxiao came in just now, bringing a cool air from outside the house, but said with a smile: "Master Hou gave me two books, do you want to read it, brother?" β
It's like when she was a child, she innocently jumped into the door: "Brother, my father gave me a lot of things, do you want to take a look." β
Isn't this telling him in disguise that she has it, but he can't?
So when he heard the words Hou Ye, Jiang Zhongrong already had a good face, threw the book she handed over to the ground, and stepped on it again.
Jiang Xiaoxiao cried as soon as he laughed, and pushed him hard while crying: "What are you doing?" This is the book Hou Ye gave me! I think it's good to share it with my brother, you don't like it, why do you want to spoil it, my mother is right, brother, you just have a mother and no mother, so you have no upbringing. β
"Do you have a mother or not?" Jiang Xiaoxiao is not the first time to say this, and he also said in the past quarrels, but today because of the matter in Beipinghou, he was angered all of a sudden, and he sneered and approached: "Jiang Xiaoxiao, I used to have a mother, why not now, I have to thank your mother's vicious woman." β
"You talk nonsense! You don't want to lie to my mother, if your mother likes you, why don't you come back to see you, no, I heard that your mother is dead, no wonder you don't come back! β
Jiang Zhongrong pushed her hard, his eyes were blood-red: "You're telling me again!" β
"Just say it, my mother said it, your mother was kicked out because she stole men outside, corrupted women's morality, and lost the meeting to the Jiang family, even if she died, she was innocent! Such a woman is not worthy to enter the door of the Jiang family, brother, are you worthy to stay in the Jiang family! β
At a young age, they are open-mouthed, but adults always naively think that they are just ignorant, but they don't know how deeply words can hurt a person.
Therefore, Jiang Zhongrong couldn't hear any sound for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, his words had already blurted out: "My mother is not dead, if you say one more word, I will kill you." β
Jiang Xiaoxiao was enraged, no one in the house spoiled her as a baby, but Jiang Zhongrong didn't want to see her, and said such a thing, she was also red on the spot at a young age, and said with a stiff neck: "Okay, kill me, I see if my father still likes you, see if my mother will let you go, you just don't have a mother, envy me for having a mother, so I hate me, I said your mother is dead, even if you die, I don't want you when you die." β
After saying that, he vented his emotions and smashed everything in the house that could be smashed.
Jiang Zhongrong's ears were buzzing, and he wanted to chop her up with a thousand knives and swallow it again, until she smashed the room all over again, he finally couldn't hold back, picked up his arms and beat her, threw her to the table again, and choked her neck......
Hiss.
The pain changed back to his thoughts, it turned out that Xia Ying had turned back and had already sent the medicine in, Bang Yue mercilessly sprinkled the medicine powder on his wound, and then rudely wrapped it around a few times with a gauze scarf, and put it down angrily: "Just now, you really want to kill her?" β
Jiang Zhongrong replied honestly: "I don't know. β
He really didn't know, but he felt that whoever else came, he would be irritated by Jiang Xiaoxiao.
Bang Yue glanced at him worriedly, this child has not been comfortable since he was a child, and he was involved in this battle before he completely grew up, even if his mind is mature, it is inevitable that there will be something different from ordinary people.
However, she grew up in the depths of Wenfu, and she can be a little bit like ordinary people, how can she be qualified to criticize others.
I had to be relieved: "You didn't hold back your anger for a while, but how to say that she is also your sister, and she can't explain if something happens, don't do it next time." β
Jiang Zhongrong seemed to really know that he was wrong, and walked up to her silently, stretched out his hand to hug her, as if he had found a peaceful place, and his body and mind were relaxed and no longer tense.
Bang Yue smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "It's okay, what's the matter, sister will also give you a round, Jiang Xiaoxiao fainted temporarily, it is estimated that she will wake up in a while, she is easy to deceive, just leave it to me." β
"Bang the moon, Bang Yue."
Hearing a hurried knock on the door, Bang Yue was startled, pushed Jiang Zhongrong away and patted his chest and said, "What's the matter?" β
"The people in Aunt Lan's yard came to report, saying that the old man accidentally broke his leg in Qianzhuang on a rainy day, and was carried back, so let Young Master Jiang go over and take a look."
The two glanced at each other, nodded knowingly, and Jiang Zhongrong opened the door and went out.
As soon as he went out on his front feet, Jiang Xiaoxiao let out a painful moan, accompanied by a cough, and rolled on the ground.
Bang Yue was afraid that she would be pierced in the face by debris, so she hurriedly went over to help her up and calm down, Jiang Xiaoxiao didn't struggle, and when she calmed down, her eyes widened when she saw who the person above her head was, and she quickly got up: "You, what do you want to do to me?" β
Bang Yue was helpless: "Miss, don't be afraid, I won't do anything to you, just now Xiaorong lost his temper, and you fainted in fright." β
"Scared out?" Jiang Xiaoxiao obviously didn't believe this statement.
"That's right, he said to pinch you and scare you, who knew that you would faint and scare me a lot, why are you so useless, I used to fight with your brother, and he always pinched me, I never fainted."
Hearing Bang Yue's triumphant tone, Jiang Xiaoxiao became more and more unhappy, and argued: "Who is useless, I haven't eaten much breakfast, and I've been dizzy." β
As he spoke, he stood up and patted the dust off his body and combed his hair.
Bang Yue glanced at her collar and found that the area around her neck was only a little red, and it was estimated that it would disappear after a while, so she put her mind at ease and deliberately stimulated her: "It's all an excuse, don't come next time, lest you faint again, and if your mother knows, Xiaorong will have to be scolded." β
