Chapter 49 - Talking to the Piggy

“Did you hear that? Get lost! Don’t force me to do it!” Jiang Shan rolled up his sleeves and stared at the Zhao family’s butler with a fierce look.

The servant who had come with them did not expect to encounter such a situation. He quickly waved his hand and explained, “Don’t misunderstand. This is a Mid-Autumn gift from the Zhao family’s Eldest Miss to Miss Jiang Xi. It has nothing to do with our butler. If you don’t accept it, we won’t be able to report back to the family.” He was a little nervous. Eldest Miss Zhao Yingying was fine, but Eldest Young Master Zhao Ruifeng was a very strict person. He knew that they would be punished for their incompetence. If the Eldest Young Master of the house frowned, everyone would be trembling in fear.

“To who?” Jiang Si raised his head and asked in surprise.

“It’s for Miss Jiang Xi. Our Eldest Miss specifically said that she wants to give Miss Jiang a Mid-Autumn Festival gift. She also invited Miss Jiang Xi to visit the Zhao mansion if you have time. This servant usually served Zhao Ruifeng, so he naturally knew a lot of things. He also knew that Zhao Yingying had a good impression of Jiang Xi.

The Zhao family’s butler stood at the back. He had a bad feeling and his heart sank.

The servant was still trying to persuade the Jiang family. “We can talk about the misunderstanding between you and the butler again. I guess someone took advantage of the misunderstanding. However, this Mid-Autumn Festival gift was given to Miss Jiang Xi by the Eldest Miss. It has nothing to do with other matters.”

The Zhao family’s butler’s heart skipped a beat when he heard this, and he cursed Yang Shaoqun several times in his heart. He never thought that the Jiang family would actually have a relationship with the Zhao family’s Eldest Young Master and Eldest Miss.

“Mom, let’s talk about it after the new year. Maybe there’s really a misunderstanding. We’ll find time to sit down and talk it out,” Jiang Si said in a deep voice. He glanced at Yang Fen, and Yang Fen instantly swallowed all the resentment in her stomach.

Jiang Guoyou’s face turned purple as he listened, and he clenched his fists.

“I’ve troubled you all to come and give gifts today. Please come in and take a seat. I’ve prepared wine at home, I hope you don’t mind.” Jiang Si invited the Zhao family’s butler. The Jiang family’s matters had always been under Jiang Si’s control. After all, he was the only scholar. When the other members of the Jiang family heard Jiang SI’s words, their faces darkened. If Jiang Xi had not held Jiang Shan back, Jiang Shan’s fist would have probably smashed over.

Jiang Xi glanced at Jiang Si silently and thought, ‘He’s here to give me something. What does it have to do with you?’ Thinking of this, she turned to the side and said to the Zhao family’s butler and servant with an indifferent expression. “Move the things in, and you can leave after you’re done.”

“Nonsense, since when is it your turn to speak in this house?!” Jiang Si scolded, and Yang Fen frowned as well.

Hearing this, Jiang Xi looked up. Her dark eyes were unmoved, and they looked a little terrifying under the moonlight. She looked at Jiang Si and said, “Is this for you? Can you make the decision? If it’s not for you, what are you saying? Do these things have anything to do with you?” Damn it, the grass on the grave of those who dared to point fingers in front of her was already as tall as an elder’s!

“Jiang Xi, you’re presumptuous! How can you speak to me like this? ” Jiang Si had never been humiliated by anyone before, not to mention by his disdainful sister, Jiang Xi! He, who had always been proud and looked down on the Jiang family, was furious! If he could take this opportunity to befriend the Zhao family, he would have a bright future. However, what was Jiang Xi doing? Was she dragging him down?

When the few students saw this, they looked at each other with embarrassed expressions.

Upon hearing Jiang Si’s words, Jiang Xi immediately became serious. She stood up straight with a serious look on her face. Anyone who knew her well would know that this meant that she was angry.

“I don’t want to waste my breath on you because I won’t listen to you at all. However, I’ll give you a chance to speak. You can talk to my piggy and see if it’ll listen to your nonsense!” Jiang Xi kicked the door open with a loud bang in front of everyone’s dumbfounded eyes. Yang Fen’s heart skipped a beat in fear.

Jiang Xi looked at the wild boar squatting inside the courtyard and said seriously, “Come, piggy, have a good chat with them. Let them go after you’re done.” Her expression was too serious, so serious that one could not help but wonder if she was mentally okay.

Jiang Si and the others, who had finally gotten rid of the wild boar, once again saw the familiar fangs of the wild boar. The awkward situation from before was repeated. Jiang Si’s classmates broke down. Who could tell them what had happened? Why did they still have to face the threat of the wild boar after so many twists and turns?
