Chapter 422: The Secret of the Year

The Jiang family is in the local area, although it is not a wealthy family, it is also a wealthy family, even if the previous dynasty perished, entering the new century, the Jiang family is also a local big landlord and big businessman.

After the accumulation of family industry from generation to generation, it reached its peak in Jiang Rong's grandfather's generation, and then gradually began to decline. But even if it declines, the Jiang family is still a well-known wealthy family in Yuancheng. Not only that, but it also has business dealings with several surrounding prefectures and cities, and the stalls are very large.

Jiang Rong married at the age of sixteen, and married He Qiuyun, the right lady of the He family, and the two are also childhood sweethearts. Soon gave birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses.

This family was originally happy and peaceful, but it coincided with troubled times, war/lord scuffle, and human life was like a mustard, even if it was as rich as the Jiang family, it would still be involved. Even because of the wealth of the Jiang family, it has already attracted several forces

Although Jiang's father has a business experience, he received a Confucian education in his early years, and his mind is still the set of three outlines and five permanent loyal monarchs to serve the country, and he has always been unmoved by the entrapment of wars/lords, and small things are okay, but he will never work for a certain force.

As a result, when Jiang's father took Jiang Rong to the next city to discuss business, when the daughter of the Jiang family went out, she was robbed and looted by bandits, and Jiang's mother died on the spot.

The He family is also a local squire, a landlord, after the troubled times, there are also slaves in the family, I heard that the aunt and grandmother of the family are in distress, He Chunyang, the son of the He family, immediately took the family to rescue, but it was too late, He Qiuyun and the sister-in-law, that is, Jiang's father's most painful daughter, Jiang Shutong, the eldest lady of the Jiang family, had already led a large number of gangsters away, and since then the whereabouts are unknown, fortunately, they also rescued the dragon and phoenix brothers and sisters who were hidden in the haystack on the side, and at the same time caught the bandits who did not have time to escape and did not die in the battle.

As soon as I asked, I found out, where did the bandits come from? These people are just arranged by the biggest force in Yuancheng today, and the original purpose was to take advantage of Jiang's father's absence to control the Jiang family's daughters and children, and at the same time kill Jiang's father Jiang Rong, and then use the Jiang family's children to coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes to control all the wealth and business dealings of the Jiang family.

"My father and I went through nine deaths, and finally returned to Yuancheng, and found that it was really as we guessed the worst, the Jiang family, and the family had already been ruined......

Seeing that the means did not take effect, but instead attracted the He family to pursue him, he simply did not do anything, and no longer cared about any reputation and reason, and directly robbed him, and also gave the Jiang family a charge of colluding with foreigners to sell opium/film, and directly raided the Jiang family.

The rabbit died and the fox was sad, He Chunyang lost his sister-in-law, and saw the style of this force, under persecution, he took a family and two nephews, sold his property, and went directly to another war/lord in the next city.

I'd rather be a peace dog than a troubled world. Because people in troubled times are so pitiful.

When Jiang's father and Jiang Rong returned to Yuancheng after a lot of hard work, Jiang's father, who was already physically injured, learned that his wife had passed away, and his family was charged with treason for selling opium/chips, and even his father and son did not dare to appear in front of people.

The family is broken, the wife is separated, and everything is too tragic. Even the He family, who saved Jiang Rong's children, had no news in the war.

It didn't take long for Father Jiang to take such a blow.

At the last moment of death, he was still thinking about his grandchildren, but he couldn't find them at all.

Jiang Rong buried his father and took out the Jiang family's property hidden in the shadows, ready to take revenge.

"But the money is too small, and there are no weapons, no money, no people, no guns...... In the end, I caused some trouble to the enemy, and I couldn't break my bones at all, but I was on the verge of death several times...... The last time, I followed him to the mausoleum, and I was very prepared, and I managed to shoot him, but I almost didn't run away...... That time, it was Jiuhua who saved me. ”

"It's not like I'll save you." Yang Jiuhua waved his hand, meaning not to say this, "If you really want to count it, if you hadn't come out back then, I would have hung him with a rope and chased him......

The warlords are fighting, and even a poor mountain col like Lotus Village is entrenched by bandits.

Jiang Xingrong, an orphan whose parents died early, could not live in the village, so he arrived in the town and helped people deliver goods, going back and forth between Lingcheng and the town.

After Jiang Xingrong and Yang Jiuhua got married, Yang Jiuhua was good-looking, and he was an orphan, and he had no relatives to protect him, which often made him very worried. After Jiang Xingrong was stationed in Lingcheng, he took his wife over and found a job of washing and cleaning at the owner's house, and the couple had a good life.

Until Jiang Xingrong suddenly contracted a vicious disease, he was about to pass away.

When there are no antibiotics, a cold can kill you, not to mention, Jiang Xingrong is also considered to be sick from hard work, and the illness is like a mountain, and there is no money to go to the pharmacy to ask a doctor to see a doctor, and people will be dragged into tuberculosis.

At that time, everyone already knew that tuberculosis was contagious and could not be cured, so Jiang Xingrong and Yang Jiuhua were driven out. The only thing that the owner still remembered was to give her a wooden cart, a roll of mats, and put the dying Jiang Xingrong on the wooden cart.

It was summer, but Jiang Xingrong's body exuded a rancid smell, his face was sallow and thin, and he was no longer human.

Yang Jiuhua pushed the car so indifferently, not knowing where to go.

Then, she saw Jiang Rong hiding on the corner of the street stained with blood.

He looked at her and stretched out his hand: "Help, save me......"

That was the most daring thing Yang Jiuhua had done in her life, she hid Jiang Rong, and scared off the pursuers with a husband who was dying of tuberculosis.

The revenge was avenged, Jiang Rong was stabbed in his body, and his recuperation was extraordinarily long, but in the past few years of revenge, his originally weak body had already become strong and strong, and his vitality was extremely strong.

"Your mother is very bold, and she is not afraid that I am a bad person, so she dares to save me, and she really listens to me and takes the money to settle down, otherwise, I would have died a long time ago."

As soon as Jiang Rong's words fell, Yang Jiuhua immediately replied as if he was not to be outdone: "Then aren't you bolder?" You didn't know if I was a bad person at the time, so you dared to give me all the money, and you weren't afraid that I would lose your money if I took it. ”

The two of them were arguing like this, which eased some of the atmosphere.

Jiang Ruonan was fascinated by what he heard, in Du Jiaojiao's place, it was just a few simple words about the relationship between the characters, but he would not explain all the details so clearly and clearly, and from the mouths of the parties concerned, Jiang Ruonan could think of the suffering of people in the troubled times of the society before.

"And then? What about Uncle Jiang Xingrong? Jiang Ruonan hurriedly asked.

Yang Jiuhua's expression was slightly gloomy: "He, it didn't last long, and your father didn't get better, so he ......"

At that time, she already had Jiang Rong's money in her hands, and she was going to take medicine for Jiang Rong, so she was naturally willing to give Jiang Xingrong medicine for treatment.

It's just that he was already terminally ill, and the expensive medicinal materials only extended his vitality a little bit, and Jiang Rong's injuries had not healed yet, and he died.

When he returned to the light, he was in good spirits and entrusted Yang Jiuhua to Jiang Rong.

"At that time, I needed an identity. So I promised him to live as Jiang Xingrong from now on. Jiang Rong took Yang Jiuhua's words, "Ernier, your mother is a good woman." Your Uncle Jiang is also a good person, next time you have time to go back, burn him a few sticks of incense, you guys, in fact, are also his daughters. ”
