Chapter 16: Being Criticized

"Mother, is my brother in trouble again?" Xie Liu mentioned his brother's name when he saw Jiang Jingyun muttering to herself.

The tone was also a little displeased, and I couldn't help but look at her and ask.

Because she temporarily found that Xie Feng was missing, Jiang Jingyun was still in no mood to eat even if she was very hungry now.

Seeing that Xie Liu also stopped picking up rice, he couldn't help but rub her hair and comforted: "Liu Er, don't worry, your brother is fine." ”

He'll be fine, Jiang Jingyun thought to herself.

Sure enough, after a while, Xie Fanqun came back with Xie Feng in his hand.

And Xie Feng's face was obviously injured, and his expression was not very reluctant.

After they came in, Jiang Jingyun looked at their grandfather and grandson and asked, "What happened?" ”

Seeing the injury on Xie Feng's face, she knew that Xie Feng must have been beaten outside again.

She was just curious now why this kid was causing trouble at this time.

Xie Fanqun sighed a little helplessly: "You can ask this stinky boy yourself." ”

"Uh." Jiang Jingyun was a little stunned, and even the old man, who had always favored that kid, was angry this time.

Jiang Jingyun couldn't help but be a little curious about what Xie Feng had done, so she looked at Xie Feng and asked, "Tell me, what trouble did you make outside?" ”

Xie Feng glared at her: "Why do you care about me?" ”

As he said that, he was about to leave, but was stopped by Jiang Jingyun.

She immediately changed her expression, her voice changed from her previous gentleness, squatted down and looked at him seriously, and said: "I haven't been sorry for you these days, even if I have done something wrong before, but are you never going to forgive me because of this?" ”

Although Jiang Jingyun's attitude was cold and hard, her tone carried a hint of grievance.

After all, those things were originally done, and I have been careful with them since I came through.

I didn't expect it to be almost a month, and this kid has always been the first attitude.

He was not moved at all by the fact that she was kind to him.

Although intellectually she knew that this was normal, she was still a little hurt emotionally, after all, she didn't do those things by herself, and she had been paying so much.

Xie Feng finally glanced at her when he heard this, and then snorted coldly and still didn't intend to pay attention to her.

And just bypassed her and left, not even planning to eat dinner.

Seeing this, Jiang Jingyun was a little sad in an instant, but she still endured a cold face.

Xie Fanqun was annoyed by Xie Feng's behavior, he didn't expect his attitude to be so bad, and then he looked at Jiang Jingyun and comforted him with some embarrassment: "Then don't be angry, that kid is just stubborn, he didn't mean it." ”

Jiang Jingyun sighed slightly, and didn't plan to worry about it for the time being, but turned to ask Xie Fanqun: "What is he doing outside?" Why did you get beaten again? ”

"Well, that's complicated." Xie Fanqun's expression was also a little confused: "When I found him there, he had already been beaten, and although the children who beat him were from the same village, I could see that they seemed to be different from before this time." ”

"How is it different?" Jiang Jingyun was curious by Xie Fanqun's words, so she asked.

Xie Fanqun thought for a moment before continuing: "I think these children seem to be influenced by some adults, because when they beat people, they vaguely mention something about you...... Ugly words. ”

Jiang Jingyun frowned: "What are you talking about?" ”

"It's just some ...... It's better not to listen to rumors that can't be heard. Xie Fanqun replied with a complicated expression.

Jiang Jingyun saw that he was so embarrassed, so she simply stopped asking.

Anyway, since someone spread rumors about her, she will hear it sooner or later.

After all, the village is so small.

After dinner, Jiang Jingyun still went to find Xie Feng, brought the food to him and said to him: "Eat quickly, I'll rub some medicine on your wound after eating, otherwise it will be bad if you have a scar." ”

After she heard Xie Fanqun's words, she knew that Xie Feng probably fought with those children because of something.

So she quickly stopped being angry, after all, this kid was defending her.

Although he refused to admit it, Jiang Jingyun thought to himself that everything he had done during this time should not be meaningless.

Thinking of Jiang Jingyun's lips slightly, her mood was much better.

Although Xie Feng didn't talk to her, he also ate the meal honestly.

Then Jiang Jingyun applied medicine to the wound on his face, and then let him rest.

She herself had been tossing for a day, so she soon fell asleep until the next morning, when Jiang Jingyun was woken up by the movement outside.

Only then did she realize that she had overslept, probably because she was too tired yesterday and her body couldn't bear it all of a sudden, so she fell asleep to death.

Listening to the movement outside getting more and more noisy, the noise was not normal, Jiang Jingyun realized that something was wrong, so she hurriedly got up and walked forward.

"What's wrong? What happened? Jiang Jingyun looked at the people in the courtyard and asked.

The foreman looked annoyed and said, "It's gone, some of our tools are gone." ”

"What?" Jiang Jingyun was a little surprised.

Then he subconsciously went to look for it, and Jiang Yunqi reminded on the side: "Don't look for the third sister, we have already searched around, and the thing is indeed missing." ”

Jiang Jingyun gave up at this time, and then asked with a headache: "Then what should we do next?" What tools are you missing, I'll go to town and buy them for you? ”

blamed her for sleeping too deeply, and she was still stolen.

She dared to conclude that the people in this village had stolen it, after all, the people in the same village had recently known that their family had recently been building a new house.

"Miss Jiang, you're too wasteful, why don't we sue the official and let people find out what's going on." One of the construction team spoke.

Jiang Jingyun pondered for a moment and shook her head: "This is too troublesome, and not only may you not be able to find your tools in the end, but it will also delay the construction period." ”

The family is counting on the new house to be built before they have a place to live, and if this keeps delaying because of this, won't the family have to live in a simple shed outside?

Thinking about it, she asked the foreman again about the price of those tools.

The man looked embarrassed: "Our things are not expensive, but they are not cheap, or Miss Jiang, you should forget it." ”

Jiang Jingyun helplessly held her forehead, and after a moment of silence, she suddenly paid attention.

"Big brother, please make a trip, help me go and call my second brother, remember to let him put on his official uniform when he comes, and by the way, let him call a few friends who work with him, and then borrow a gong and drum from the town."

"Third sister, do you have a way to get those tools back?" Jiang Yunqi looked at her and asked.

Jiang Jingyun nodded confidently when she heard this: "That's nature." ”
