Chapter 22: Threats
Jiang Lin and Jiang Qiong are sisters, although they are six or seven years apart in age, their blood relationship with the same father and mother is closer than that of Gu Jiayao and Jiang Li.
"When the eldest sister returned to her parents' house, she always said that the eldest brother-in-law was very gentle and considerate to her, and she took care of the house's chores, and she gave birth to a pair of children to the eldest brother-in-law, how could the eldest brother-in-law treat the eldest sister badly? At that time, the eldest sister sold the dowry to support the eldest brother-in-law's business, and the family also lent silver to the eldest brother-in-law, and the eldest brother-in-law has always said that he will not forget the kindness of his father-in-law and eldest sister. β
Jiang Lin thought that she was the only one who was unlucky, and her eldest sister Jiang Qiong was at least happily married.
A touch of disdain flashed in Jiang Li's eyes, "No matter how good it was in the past, once the Jiang family is not as good as it was back then, the eldest brother-in-law will also change, and the kindness will always be easily forgotten, but ......"
"Hatred will be remembered for a lifetime!"
Gu Jiayao's words brought a chill, and Jiang Lin and Jiang Li shivered at the same time.
"No, no, how can the eldest brother-in-law have a grudge with the Jiang family? That day, the eldest brother-in-law stood at the door of Jiang's house for three days and three nights in order to marry the eldest sister, and he did not eat a drop of water until his father was moved by his sincerity. β
Jiang Lin said these past events, as if she was eager to prove that everything was just a slave who made an assertion and that the eldest brother-in-law had never treated the eldest sister badly.
Gu Jiayao raised the car curtain, her eyes flashed with a hint of depth, and she said softly: "Break in directly!" β
"This is not appropriate, in case the eldest brother-in-law has a misunderstanding, wouldn't it make the eldest sister embarrassed?"
Jiang Lin shook her head disapprovingly, "I'll go talk to the concierge." β
"You go with me to protect Cousin Lin."
Gu Jiayao ordered the two Jiang family nurses to be brought out, and before the Jiang family went out, they not only explained that they listened to Gu Jiayao's orders, but also showed a shocking and unattainable strange power in front of the two of them.
After the nurse agreed to the promise, he escorted Jiang Lin to the concierge to negotiate with the servants, Gu Jiayao kept an eye on Jiang Lin, afraid that Cousin Lin would have another accident.
Jiang Li's expression became more and more complicated, how could the weak and incompetent Jiang Lin have a day of makeup?
It's all just a dream!
Jiang Jun, who had recovered his health, was hurt to Cousin Lin in his bones, and the Jiang family was unlucky, but Cousin Lin was rich and honorable, barely keeping the livelihood of his eldest uncle's family.
And Erfang lost all his business, and Jiang Erye could only support his family by making accounts.
This may be a hint from God to Jiang Li!
But she couldn't believe it all.
Gu Jiayao pressed her temples and looked at Jiang Li's gaze a little more helplessly.
After a while, Jiang Lin returned to the carriage in frustration, "They didn't let me in, and they didn't even want to send a message to the eldest sister that we had arrived. β
"So I said I needed to break in and see if the lobby sister was okay......"
Jiang Li didn't wait for Gu Jiayao to finish speaking, and directly objected: "Just a few of us, you want to break into the Wang family?" My cousin thinks things too simply, and we don't have the weirdness of my aunt. β
"My mother's strange power doesn't have much effect on Cousin Li, and Cousin Li doesn't know how to be afraid, otherwise she won't interrupt me!"
Gu Jiayao spoke unhurriedly, "Breaking in directly will only make the Wang family vigilant, and we don't know where the eldest cousin is at this time, and it's too late to look for it everywhere...... So I went to the porter to say a few words, and they did not dare to delay. β
Brag!
Jiang Li just wanted to blurt out, but Gu Jiayao's faint gaze swept over, and Jiang's warning made her dare not speak.
"Cousin Yao, be careful, it's best not to conflict with them, we can't get in, if my father sends someone to pick up the eldest sister, the Wang family has no excuse to stop it."
"Cousin Lin is too naΓ―ve, if the Wang family wants to lock up the eldest cousin, they can always find an excuse."
Gu Jiayao jumped out of the carriage, Xiaohong followed closely behind her, and said in a loud voice: "Miss, Madame gave me a few taels of silver, and I can hire a few strong men to rush into the Wang family with you." β
In an uproar, Xiaohong held a few pieces of scattered silver taels, as if holding everything, and looked at Gu Jiayao attentively.
"None of the problems that silver can solve are problems, although I am a little short of money right now."
Gu Jiayao chuckled: "Put away the silver, save some silver for my mother, it is the ability to solve the problem without silver." β
She threw a penny of silver casually, and she was chic.
Jiang Lin was inexplicably relieved, obviously Gu Jiayao was younger than her, and she had vaguely heard that she was not in good health and was a fool.
But she inquired about the news that no one in the Jiang family had gotten.
"You go and tell Wang Lin, if you don't let us see the big sister, I have evidence to prove that his people burned the goods! At that time, His Royal Highness King Zhao was furious, even if the Jiang family couldn't fall well, it was still very easy to drag the Wang family to the same crime. β
Gu Jiayao was confident and calm, as if she really had the crucial evidence.
The girl is bright and proud, and it is intimidating.
The porter could send Jiang Lin away, but he didn't dare to slack off Gu Jiayao.
"You are ......"
"My father is Gu Xi, Wang Lin should know my father."
"Wait a minute."
The concierge was a little more respectful, and turned around to go into the house to deliver the news, Gu Jiayao secretly narrowed her eyes, her face was calm, but her brows were furrowed.
Jiang Li snorted coldly, "I thought Cousin Yao had something terrible!" Isn't that a threat? And it's still empty and white-toothed, if the eldest brother-in-law can believe her......"
"Our Miss is the most powerful, what Miss Watch doesn't understand, it's easy to do it to Miss Watch, Miss is kind and shrewd, Miss Watch will be slapped in the face if she is careful!"
Xiaohong completely defended Gu Jiayao, and Jiang Li said one more word, and she rushed forward.
"Sure enough, what kind of girl raised her, rude and tight, uneducated!"
Jiang Li's face turned pale, even if she was resented by Gu Jiayao, even a maid dared to be rude to her, "I don't believe that I can't cure you girl." β
"I've only been serving Miss for three days, and the previous rules have always been taught by the Jiang family."
Xiaohong raised a smile, "You don't like slaves and maids, and you don't know the rules, so you can't blame the young lady and the lady." β
Jiang Li: "......"
"The slave and maid only understood some truths with the young lady, although it was only for three days, the slave and maid felt that they had been reborn, how much better than before, and in a few days, the place where the young lady disliked the slave and the maid will slowly disappear."
Jiang Li breathed in his chest, he didn't sleep well last night, and his complexion was even worse.
Jiang Lin's face was a little embarrassed, and she blamed Jiang Li softly: "You too, the people who follow Cousin Yao follow the temper of the master, Cousin Yao does these things for the sake of the big sister, we can't get in, no matter what method Cousin Yao uses, as long as it works, I'm really worried about the big sister." β
"In case the eldest brother-in-law hates the Jiang family, as long as he thinks about it, he shudders."
Jiang Li was dismissive, "I don't believe she can do it?" The eldest aunt spoiled her like a fool. β
The porter ran over and said respectfully, "Uncle, please ask Miss Cousin to come in." β
