Chapter 22: The Difference Between Accepting Money to Buy a Life and Doing the Way for Heaven (4k)

Jiang Yi's peaceful life was still peaceful, and he waited for the fourth attribute point to appear.

Until this day.

On the dinner table.

Yang Lin said with a heavy face.

"The eldest lady's illness is getting worse and worse."

His wife Liu Hong's expression immediately became nervous.

Only Jiang Yi, who didn't know why, was teasing the four-year-old child with chicken legs.

He swallowed the chicken leg in front of the child, leaving only a bare chicken bone.

The child didn't cry or make trouble, picked up the chicken bones and shivered with relish, seeing that Jiang Yi's old face was red, and he grabbed another chicken leg and gave it to the child.

The child bit on the chicken leg and laughed happily.

Jiang Yi was also happy, and asked casually:

"What does the eldest lady's illness have to do with you, what does it have to do with you working and getting money, and changing bosses?"

Yang Lin smiled bitterly: "Hero, you may not know that the Zhao family used to be the head of the eldest lady.

My daughter-in-law was given to me by the eldest lady.

And before that, my young master was a little ...... to my daughter-in-law I have a good impression, because of this, the young master has never had a good face for me.

The eldest lady was fine when she was in charge, but now that the eldest lady is seriously ill, the young master has become the master of the Zhao family, and it is very likely that she will dismiss me.

Now the whole family is counting on me to work and eat at the Zhao family. ”

Jiang Yi couldn't help but glance at Liu Hong again when he heard this.

Goose egg face, peach blossom eyes, it is indeed a little beautiful, but because of his personality, he always likes to keep his head down, so it is not very eye-catching.

It seems that the rumors are not all rumors, and the young master of the Zhao family did have an attempt on Liu Hong.

But raising an illegitimate child for the young master of the Zhao family is a fabrication out of thin air.

If it was really an illegitimate child, Yang Lin should be happy at this time, the young master is in charge, isn't it just right to take care of them.

Jiang Yi said: "According to me, you should also have some silver on you, set up a stall by yourself, be your own boss, and don't have to look at people's eyes, wouldn't it be happy?" ”

"It's not that simple."

Yang Lin shook his head and sighed, didn't say much, just buried his head in eating.

Since Jiang Yi moved in, not to mention anything else, at least their family's food level has risen in a straight line.

Five taels of silver is just the cost of accommodation and ordinary food.

Occasionally, when Jiang Yi was greedy, he would pay extra money for him to run errands and buy some meat, so that they could eat a little together.

For example, today's old hen used to stew soup cost two taels of silver, how dare you be so extravagant, this is a chicken raised to lay eggs.

Jiang Yi saw that Yang Lin didn't want to say more, so he didn't ask.

He's just a passerby.

At most, half a month, if his strength rises to a higher level, he will choose to leave to earn money.

Although he still has a small amount of money on him, and the Bigu Pill is enough for him for the next two months, he can't stand it and eat nothing.

However, the day after Yang Lin finished saying that the eldest lady was seriously ill, he walked back with a blue nose and swollen face.

Liu Hong was distressed and cried when she saw it, and Yang Lin said it didn't matter, she just fell.

The child didn't know what was going on, but he saw that his father had bought meat again today, and he clapped his hands and was happy.

Jiang Yi sat in the courtyard and watched quietly.

On the third day, Yang Lin couldn't walk back, and was carried back by two friends who could still play on weekdays.

"Sister-in-law, who doesn't know that Brother Yang is the most honest person on weekdays, don't say steal the things of the master's house, you won't touch them.

But today, the young master actually said that Brother Yang stole his jade pendant, and asked someone to search Brother Yang's cabinet, I guess it was the person who put the jade pendant in Brother Yang's cabinet.

Hey, you didn't see how they beat Brother Yang.

I see, sister-in-law, you persuade Brother Yang not to go to Zhao's house to work, otherwise, according to the young master's posture of eating Brother Yang.

Brother Yang is afraid that his life will be difficult to protect if he goes again. ”

The friend who sent Yang Lin back was also a long-term worker of the Zhao family, and they all worked in a dyeing workshop of the Zhao family.

Before, he was still envious of Yang Lin's stupid fortune, and he was promised such a beautiful little daughter-in-law by the eldest lady.

Now it seems that what Hongyan said is really right.

How can a person like Yang Lin keep such a beautiful daughter-in-law.

Liu Hong looked at her husband's miserable situation and nodded in fright.

"No, no, no."

"Thank you two brothers for sending me back, I, I really don't know how to thank you."

"Sister-in-law is serious, we are friends with Brother Yang, and we didn't do anything to talk about it.

Sister-in-law, take good care of Brother Yang, it's best to find another doctor to see, don't leave any dark wounds, let's go back first. ”

As friends, they can't do much, and they also have a big family to support.

And it costs money to see a doctor and heal an injury.

Before leaving, they glanced at Jiang Yi, who was sitting motionless in the courtyard.

I heard that this person was Brother Yang's distant cousin, who fled and ran over, but I didn't expect to see Brother Yang injured, but he didn't say anything at all.

They shook their heads secretly, but they also knew that it was someone else's housework, and it was inconvenient for them to take care of it.

In the evening, after taking the medicine prescribed by the doctor, Yang Lin woke up and heard that his wife asked him not to go to Zhao's house in the future.

Yang Lin wanted to speak again and again, and finally said:

"I can't help but go, I just signed a contract with the young master today, and I want to work in the Zhao family for another three years, if I don't go, I will pay fifty taels of silver."

Liu Hong was stunned when she heard this, and tears flowed.

"You are a nerd, you know that the young master is going to deal with you, you dare to sign such a contract, if something happens to you, what should you do if you call me and Hu'er?"

Yang Lin hammered the bed board hard, and said hatefully:

"I'm stupid, stupid like a pig, the young master said that yesterday's incident was a misunderstanding, and it was someone who misunderstood his mind and came to me for trouble.

He also said that after so many years, you and I even have children, and he doesn't care anymore, and he also said that in order to compensate me, he wants to sign a long contract with me.

You know that there have been too many refugees lately, and those people can do everything if they have something to eat, and the dyeing mill is going to hire some cheap workers, and we old people are very worried.

As soon as the young master said this, I believed it.

As a result, the result ......

In the afternoon, the young master said that I entered his room and stole his jade pendant, obviously he asked me to sign the contract.

It's me who is so stupid, so stupid! ”

He pounded his head hard, remorseful.

Liu Hong couldn't help but be silent, she knew that her husband was also for this family.

She seemed to have made up her mind, and said:

"Xianggong, or else...... Let me go to the young master to plead for mercy. ”

"No way!"

Yang Lin knew that his wife was in the mouth of a tiger in the past, so he hurriedly stopped:

"I don't believe he can really kill me, there is no king in this world. I can also go to the eldest lady.

I heard that the eldest lady's illness has improved, and as long as the eldest lady is well, the young master will not dare to do anything to me.

I endured it and passed. ”

Liu Hong didn't know what to do, so she only hugged Yang Lin and cried.

Under the light and shadow of the window, there are two sad people who are buried in their heads and crying.

"Big brother, why are my father and my mother crying? Is it because I didn't eat at night? I cry when I can't get enough to eat. ”

Yang Lin's son accompanied Jiang Yi to eat in the courtyard, carefree and carefree, he didn't understand that his family was experiencing an unprecedented crisis at this time.

Jiang Yi touched the child's head and said with a smile:

"Yes, because we have eaten too much, they have no meat to eat, and they are all hungry, and they cry."

"Then I won't eat it."

The child immediately put down the small bowl, wiped his mouth, and climbed down from the bench with his little short legs.

"I'll go and ask my father and mother to eat, and I won't cry when I'm full."

Jiang Yi's eyes were gloomy.

The weak place their fate on the conscience of the strong, retreating again and again, just wanting a way to live.

Will the hateful really stop bullying you just because you're on your knees?

No, he will only be more unscrupulous.

But is it really possible not to kneel?

Nor can it.

Because for small people like Yang Lin, who have no support, kneeling and begging still have a chance to survive, and resisting can only attract more violent revenge.

But Jiang Yi knew that for the son of the Zhao family, he was not just retaliating, but also enjoying the pleasure of playing cat and mouse.

If nothing else, Yang Lin will give in, and so will Liu Hong.

As for the outcome of the two of them, it depends on the mood of the Zhao family's son.

Jiang Yi stretched out his hand and looked at his lightly reddened palm.

"Only power!"

"Those of us who have been following the rules all our lives, and some people are born outside the rules, and only the power in their own hands can make them jealous."

……

On the dinner table.

Jiang Yi looked at the couple with red eyes and said:

"No matter how you say it, it can be regarded as an acquaintance, I can give you a way to change the existing predicament, so that you can avoid the threat of the young master of the Zhao family, but you need to bear the consequences."

Yang Lin felt a sigh in his heart when he heard this.

He won't forget that Jiang Yi is low-key these days, this is a strongman who doesn't ask questions and kills the whole family if he doesn't agree.

He gestured to Liu Hong with his eyes and said:

"Baby, you take the baby back to the room to rest, I have something to say to the hero."

Liu Hong carried the already sleepy child back to the room.

When there were only two people left, Yang Lin took a deep breath and said:

"Please teach me."

Jiang Yi said: "The solution to this matter is very simple, if you encounter a problem, then just solve the root cause of the problem." ”

Yang Lin actually had a feeling that it was unexpected.

The hero's solution is as crude and simple as ever.

"Does Daxia mean to help us get rid of the young master of the Zhao family?" Yang Lin smiled bitterly: "But we probably can't afford to pay the hero." ”

Jiang Yi's eyes glared: "Who are you and me?" ”

"If I take your money, then I am the killer who collects money to buy my life, and if I don't take your money, then I am a hero who does the right thing for heaven."

"But I can do this hero or not."

"After the fact, if someone is interested in tracking it down, it is likely that you will be regarded as a suspect, after all, there are not many people who have clashed with the Zhao family's son recently.

And your family happened to have a distant cousin, and it happened to disappear. ”

"Don't blame me then."

"So choose now, whether to let him disappear, or pray for his kindness, so that after tormenting you, he will mercifully spare you."

Yang Lin was suddenly in a dilemma.

If Jiang Yi did things quietly, he wouldn't have anything to do with himself, pretending not to know, and might complain about Jiang Yi's impulsiveness afterwards, which affected him.

But now Jiang Yi gave him the choice.

Then he is the mastermind.

To kill or not to kill?

"Hero, although the young master of the Zhao family is a bit hateful, he can't be guilty to death, otherwise it's enough to teach him a lesson and let him not dare to bully me in the future."

Yang Lin couldn't break through the bottom line in his heart for a while.

As an honest person, it is difficult to break out without being bullied to the limit.

Jiang Yi sneered: "What are you to me, your nanny?" There is no such thing as not taking responsibility and enjoying the benefits at the same time, now tell me, what is your choice? ”

"I, I ......"

Yang Lin was sweating profusely, and the wounds on his body began to ache faintly.

"When you are bullied to the extreme, when your wife is forced to walk in front of the young master of the Zhao family to scratch her head and pose in order to save you, when you watch your woman being played with by others, will you think of tonight, it was your chance to change everything.

But you didn't catch it. ”

Jiang Yi is like a god, ruthlessly announcing Yang Lin's future ending.

Yang Lin has read books, and he is a person who can think.

It's just that the ostrich mind doesn't want to think about the worst outcome, praying for the kindness of the bad guys.

But at this moment, Jiang Yi broke it, and he had no doubt that the words Jiang Yi said would become a real scene.

The reason why the young master didn't kill him all at once, in addition to being afraid of telling the truth and getting into a lawsuit, wasn't it for his wife?

He can be abused, beaten, and tortured by the young master for the sake of his wife and children, so his wife can also be insulted and played with by the young master for him and his children.

"Nope! No! ”

Yang Lin stood up suddenly, then knelt down towards Jiang Yi, glaring angrily, his suppressed voice full of murderous aura.

"Hero, please let him disappear, I am willing to bear all the costs caused by this."

Jiang Yi bowed slightly: "As you wish." ”

……

In the dead of night, the moon is dark and the wind is high, and it is the time to kill people and set fires.

Jiang Yi left Yang Lin's home.

I probably won't be going back again.

He helped Yang Lin, one for the sake of a headache and satisfying his sense of justice in a certain sense.

The other is completely selfish.

Heroes, while doing the right thing for heaven, it is always inevitable to rob the rich and help the poor.

As it happens, he was a poor man.

Of course, if Yang Lin chooses to endure it, he won't even take this responsibility, and he won't make a move.

There are many rich and unkind, and the young master of the Zhao family is considered the oldest.

At the beginning, he held the moral rules of his previous life, the concept of the legal system, and self-restraint.

Even if you want to take a shortcut and get off the beaten path, you don't want to harm anyone's life, you just want to earn a hard-earned money with your own efforts.

But the cruel reality made him understand that when he was abiding by the law, others were already playing with the law.

They forced him to kill people and forced him to step by step on the path of breaking the law.

He wants to be a good guy.

But good people are suffering, and bad people are free.

He knew that in this world, this world was rotten.

But Jiang Yi does not have the noble feelings to save the world, all he can do is to be worse than the bad guys, as long as he has no morality, no one can kidnap him morally.

He ran in the shadows, as fast as a gust of wind, avoiding the watchmen and night watchmen.

A dyeing mill is in sight.

There is a flag fluttering outside the workshop, and the book is on the Zhao family dyeing workshop.

Not far from the dyeing mill is a large mansion with lanterns lit outside it, like two big red eyes.

It was the Zhao family's house, and it was also the goal of Jiang Yi's trip.
