[800โ small รท said โ.], wonderful free reading without pop-ups!
The autumn rain was heavy and sometimes small, and it rained overnight, and finally poured the earth that had been bursting for most of the month.
In the early morning of the next day, Luoxia Town ushered in the good weather of high and crisp autumn.
Jiang Han, who was originally prepared to do more than less, was passively confrontational, and after a night of insomnia, his mind that should have been drowsy became more sober.
If you don't know who it is, you don't know.
It doesn't matter who he is!
Now, if you blindly give in, it seems that you are too cowardly.
Although it is indispensable to harm people, but if she doesn't make a few moves, won't it make those people think that she is afraid?
She's not scared, she just doesn't want to waste brain cells on these things.
In order to turn over as soon as possible, she can't sleep enough every day, so why bother with something that is destined to disappear?
The other party has to despicably involve innocent people, she is not a, she doesn't care if she is bullied, and she has to send the people around her to be bullied.
The sisters decided to close the stall and rest for a few days, and after persuading the second aunt of Huatian, who had rushed to do the work, to leave in the morning, Jiang Han went back to the house to make up for sleep.
But she had something on her mind, and after only a moment's squint, she got up again.
Xiao An is no longer angry, but he still has a straight face.
Jiang Han wanted to send him to a private school, but he didn't object, but said: "I'm afraid it's useless if you want to threaten them, I can solve my own affairs." โ
"Who said I'm going to threaten them?"
"Then what are you going to do with me? Are you going to go to the sir? Xiao An's eyes widened, and his voice was a little excited, "No need, Mr. has already taught them a lesson yesterday, you run today, and the families of those people will definitely go back tomorrow, and Mr. will be difficult to do at that time......"
Hearing this, Jiang Han smiled and said, "You are very considerate of your husband." Don't worry, I'm not going to look for your husband. I'm going to ask those little kids where they heard the rumors. โ
"Then you better not go, they will definitely not tell you, and they will think that you are there to support me."
"Don't worry, I have my own way. Just tell me who the boys are. โ
Although Xiao An was skeptical, he knew that if Jiang Han made up his mind to follow, he would definitely try his best to achieve his goal, just like when everyone didn't let her sell steamed buns, she went secretly, even if she got into trouble in the end.
He felt that he didn't have the ability to dissuade Jiang Han, so it was better to just let her go, it was better than her sneaking into the private school to make trouble.
Jiang Han's method was very simple, but he was looking for an opportunity to get close to those boys, belittled himself, pretended to be the same enemy, and just said a few words.
The children of wealthy families will take the little school children with them when they go to school, and when the young masters are in class, if they do not go home, they will wait in a specific room in the private school.
Dongze Private School is very large, although it is not as big as the academy in the county, but it covers an area as large as five or six courtyards. The private school is not dismissive at noon, and the children's lunch is either brought by themselves, or sent at home, and then eaten in the private school, and if it is a young master from a rich family, if the person who delivers the meal is not a small servant, he will definitely contact the small girl first, so the little maids who accompany the students in the private school will be the first to come into contact with the rumors outside.
Her train of thought was correct, and her guess proved right.
But what those guys said was not heard on the road, or they heard it from someone at home or who knew him, and it was not much different from not saying it.
There are five little children who beat Xiao'an, and the highest status is the children of a certain house of the Ma family and a certain house of the Huang family in the town, and then there are a few children of small merchants.
These people, except for the child of the Huang family, who barely had something to do with Zhu Yang, she had never seen the others, how could she offend other people's families?
And when it comes to the children of the Huang family, the Huang family was originally the most prosperous family in Luoxia Town, and the children surnamed Huang in Dongze's private school have not one-third but one-quarter, are they all her enemies?
Besides, from another aspect, there may be no one to make ghosts at all, maybe it's just that among those little guys, someone occasionally knows that Xiao An is her cousin, so they tell their young master, and the young master happens to have some ghost eyes and takes advantage of this rumor? - Although Xiao An is her cousin, there are not many people in the private school who know about it.
In short, it is a waste of effort to find out who is behind the ghost through a trip to a private school.
If you can't find the person who is doing the ghost, you can't fight back at a fixed point, and this matter has to be discussed separately.
According to Lord Shen, there are at least two or three groups of people behind the scenes, and even if one is found, there are still two hiding in the shadows.
What do you have to do to make the three groups of people lose more than they gain, and regret to provoke themselves?
After returning home, Jiang Han chatted casually with her father, and responded to his father's concern about her going to Dongze Private School, so she planned to go back to the house and lie down - she didn't sleep last night, and she tossed for most of the morning, she needed to make up for sleep in order to use her brain.
I didn't want her to get up just yet, but I heard her father say: "Xiao An's matter, although it is said that you are implicated, but it is a matter between children, as long as you don't do it again next time, you don't interfere, those children are rich and powerful, if you interfere, it will not be good for Xiao An." You can't stay by his side every day, if you let the other party completely hold a grudge, I'm afraid there will be more trouble in the future. โ
It turned out that Jiang Han only told him that he went to the private school early in the morning to see who and whose children bullied Xiao An, so he thought that she deliberately went to the private school to support Xiao An.
Jiang Han said: "Dad, didn't I just say it, I just went to the private school to have a look, and I didn't interfere." โ
"Daddy knows. Dad just reminds you that Xiao An is a boy, he needs to re-support the Xie family in the future, and it will not hurt him to fight a few times, of course, if others deceive people too much, we will also take action. โ
"Oh, I know, I think the same way, I'm afraid Yun Niang doesn't think like this."
"After you left in the morning, I said the same thing to Yun Niang. I think she is distressed, but she can also understand what I said. โ
Jiang Han nodded, feeling that what should be said was almost done, so he said, "That's okay." Dad, I'll go back to my room if it's okay. I didn't sleep well last night, so I'll have to sleep again, and when I get up, I'll think of a countermeasure against those who ruined my reputation. โ
Father Jiang frowned and said, "Aren't we not setting up stalls these days?" Didn't you tell Yun Niang that Tianli would open a teahouse, and let's use the name of the shopkeeper Wang to sell moon cakes? In that case, let them do as they say, and it will be all right in two days. Xiao An's matter is not as serious as you think, so don't take the initiative to provoke others. You're not in good luck this year, so it's better to avoid the limelight. โ
Is her father recuperating from his injuries at home and being brainwashed by Aunt Liu?
A person who has never mentioned fate or luck - at least, she has not heard him sigh about fate or anything for most of the past half a year - and now she has begun to talk about fortune casually.
"Dad, although I didn't find any evidence, I always felt that things were not so simple, Xiao An's matter, someone must have deliberately guided him behind his back. Don't you know, the eldest of those little guys is only thirteen or fourteen years old, how can they have so many hearts, as soon as they hear the rumors that others mention me, they think of Xiao An, accuse our family of not being good people, and say that he has provoked my evil spirit, will anger them, want to kick him out of the private school, and then beat him up without finding anything. Ever since Xiao An went to the private school, he rarely appeared in front of people, and although I have been to the private school twice, those children have no idea who I am, and where did they know about my relationship with Xiao An? โ
Father Jiang was silent for a moment, his eyes flashed suddenly, and he said: "Others don't know, Wang Xiaoli, the son of the shopkeeper, must know, how do you know that he didn't accidentally say it and was remembered?" โ
Jiang Han choked, although she felt that her father was reasonable, but she still felt that it was wrong.
Father Jiang saw it, shook his head and sighed, and said earnestly: "You kid, alas, a little thing has been drilled again." Rumors do affect our business, but now that this is the case, if you cause something more, it will only stiffen the situation and make the impact of this rumor even greater, so that those people's goals will be achieved. The most important thing we should do now is to avoid the limelight, you know? โ
"I know, I thought the same thing yesterday."
"And what else do you want to do? The teahouse will open tomorrow, and it is important to get a few more orders for mooncakes, and you should think about it when you get up later! โ
"But ......"
"But what? Don't fight for some useless idleness, so many things have happened in the past six months, haven't you provoked enough idleness? Haven't had enough of the lesson? โ
For a while, Jiang Han was speechless by these words.
She glanced at Daddy Jiang, who was pale, and nodded reluctantly: "I know." Go back to sleep first. โ
Father Jiang stared at her forbearant eyebrows, accentuated his tone, and admonished: "It's good to know, don't give me a whole set of things in front of me and behind my back!" โ
"Dad, look at what you said, can't you still believe me?" Jiang Han said angrily, with a bit of coquettishness in his voice.
Daddy Jiang glanced at her angrily, and said very shamelessly: "You kid likes to mess around when his brain is twisted, and Dad really can't believe you." โ
Granda, who was honestly sitting in front of the bed holding a book and listening to orders, couldn't help but raise her head and peek at Jiang Han when she heard this.
Jiang Han's face was scornful, and he exclaimed slightly annoyedly, "...... I can't talk anymore this day, I have to go, Ah, you can continue to read to him. With that, he got up.
When she stepped out of the threshold of her father's bedroom, her father's voice came from behind her: "Dad's words, think about it." Don't be stubborn again, you know? โ
Jiang Han waved his hand without looking back: "I know, I know, don't worry."

Also in the afternoon, Lord Shen in the Inspection Department was talking to his subordinates.
"My lord, there is news from the people below, Lin Wanli and the others you asked to focus on monitoring have not been abnormal recently." Zhao Qingfeng, who was standing in front of the bookcase, respectfully made a routine report.
Lord Shen did not stop plowing the pen in his hand, and only bowed his head slightly, indicating that he understood.
Zhao Qingfeng raised his eyes and glanced at him, his expression was a little worried, and he said: "It's just that there is a person whose whereabouts are a little suspicious, and his subordinates originally wanted to keep an eye on him for another day, but they suddenly found out that he was missing just now." โ
When Lord Shen heard this, he paused, raised his eyebrows, and asked, "Who?" โ
"Yellow, Huang has energy. Before, in the Lilai Teahouse, you ordered him to be escorted back to the class room and locked up for a few days, and after he was released, although you didn't give orders, your subordinates secretly sent people to keep an eye on him in order to prevent him from doing anything again. Speaking of this, Zhao Qingfeng secretly glanced at Lord Shen again, a little worried that Lord Shen would blame him for making his own decisions.
Lord Shen put down his pen and waited for him to continue with a calm face.
Zhao Qingfeng relaxed a little, and his speech became faster: "After he came out of the class room, he ran to the concubine in the private dormitory in Xiahefang every once in a while-he was like this before, so we didn't pay too much attention to him, just stared at him secretly." He went again the day before yesterday, and our people didn't take it seriously, but we haven't seen him come out until today, but our people saw his concubine come out, and they didn't care about it originally, but then they overheard someone say that they entered the woman's house, and when they checked, they knew that Huang Youneng had already disappeared. โ
Lord Shen stared at him for a long time without saying a word.
Under his gaze, Zhao Qingfeng just dropped half of his heart, and he mentioned his throat again.
He lowered his head a little and said, "My subordinates can be sure that there are no special people around him these days. โ
I only heard Lord Shen's voice say faintly: "In this way, where Huang Youneng went, you don't know?" โ
Zhao Qingfeng stiffened his head and said "um", "The subordinates are incompetent and careless - we interrogated his concubine, and the woman said that he left the night before, and she didn't know where the person went." And Huang Youneng's wife and children, as early as when he was caught by us in the class room, he returned to his mother's house in Qiaozhuang Town, which is twenty miles away from us. โ
"Have you ever gone somewhere else to investigate?"
"Yes, my lord, I learned the news yesterday, and my subordinates went to the dock to check, and today they went to the county seat, and the news came back that no one at the city gate had seen him, but the people who went to Qiaozhuang Town have not returned."
Lord Shen raised his hand and pinched his eyebrows, said "Got it", and then there was no indication for the next step.
This kind of Lord Shen made Zhao Qingfeng not know what to do for a while, he quietly raised his hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead, and asked tentatively: "Great, lord, what should we do next?" โ
Hearing this, Lord Shen came back to his senses, let out an "oh", and said, "In addition to these places, do you think he has other places to go." โ
Where else to go?
Zhao Qingfeng observed the words for a moment, but did not find a trace of displeasure on Lord Shen's face.
He settled down and said hesitantly: "My subordinates are afraid, and the people who are afraid of Ma Huaide have found him, and they have brought us a golden cicada out of their shells and run away." After all, when Huang San was in charge of the Huang Gang in the past, Ma Huaide and Huang Youneng had some friendship. โ
"Hmm." Lord Shen restrained his emotions, folded his hands on the bookcase, and said, "Two directions, contact the people in Fucheng, staring at Huang San, and in addition, wait for the news of the landing of eight catties." โ
Zhao Qingfeng said in surprise: "What do you mean, Huang Youneng will go to Huang San?" But Huang San is no longer ...... the year again."
Lord Shen tugged at the corners of his lips, and a hint of sarcasm flashed in his eyes: "Back then...... How beautiful it was back then, if it were you, would you be willing? โ
