Chapter 50 - Spending the Mid-Autumn Festival With the Wild Boar

There was silence in front of the Jiang family’s gate, and Jiang Si felt terrible. The wild boar seemed to have understood Jiang Xi’s words and slowly stood up. Its bean-like eyes looked at them affectionately, and Jiang Si and the others instantly felt their legs go weak!

“Jiang Xi, don’t mess around. Jiang Si is your brother, and they’re our guests. Let that animal…, ” Yang Fen tried to persuade Jiang Xi.

However, Jiang Xi waved her hand and interrupted Yang Fen, “Mom, don’t tell me. Go tell my piggy.” Coincidentally, the wild boar’s eyes fell on Yang Fen. With its fangs flashing fiercely, Yang Fen’s legs trembled and she fell to the ground. Was their family going to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with a wild boar?

Jiang Si had celebrated Mid-Autumn Festival for all these years, but today was destined to be the most unforgettable one. Once, he was the hope of the Jiang family. Even Jiang Guoyou, the head of the Jiang family, had to provide for him. He would rather let the whole family eat rice husks and vegetables to satisfy Jiang Si. Jiang Guoyou had suffered all his life and often said that he wanted to provide for a scholar and then help the other children of the Jiang family.

In this era, most families had to sell everything they had to support a scholar, and the scholar who was supported had the obligation and responsibility to help his siblings because he took up the family’s resources. Jiang Si was the most talented child in the Jiang family, but only in the Jiang family. He had a superior status in the Jiang family because his talent surpassed the others. As he grew older, his words carried more and more weight in the Jiang family. For example, he had single-handedly arranged Jiang Xi’s third marriage. He also said something to Jiang Xi that he should not have said. Yang Fen was also aware of this, but Yang Fen’s love for Jiang Xi depended on the situation. If it really involved the future of Jiang Si, things would immediately become clear.

It was true that the Jiang family doted on Jiang Xi and did not allow her to do any farm work, but it was also true that Jiang Xi, their daughter, had to give in in front of her son. There were many parents like this in modern society, but Jiang Xi scoffed at them.

“Jiang Xi, your fourth brother is a scholar and his body is weak. He will catch a cold if he is exposed to the cold wind for a night. Don’t be angry with him. Your fourth brother’s classmates are still outside. What will we do if something happens to them? ” Yang Fen still wanted to persuade Jiang Xi, but Jiang Xi glanced at his third brother, Jiang Shan. Jiang Shan usually looked simple and honest, but he was very smart at critical moments. He grabbed Yang Fen’s arm and dragged her into the courtyard.

The door was slammed shut, and the innocent Jiang Si and his classmates cursed in their minds. ‘What a strange night!’

“Jiang Xi! You’ll have to get married sooner or later, and you’ll have to rely on your brothers to support you in the future. Your fourth brother, Jiang Si, is the most promising one, so why are you going against him now? Hurry up and get the wild boar away. Let your fourth brother in and apologize to him properly. Your fourth brother will forgive you.” It was already cold in August. However, Yang Fen was so anxious that her forehead was covered in sweat. She looked at the wild boar guarding the gate of the courtyard and did not dare to go out and open the gate to let Jiang Si and the others in. She could only keep persuading Jiang Xi.

Jiang Guoyou stood in the room. His lips moved as if he wanted to say something, but under Jiang Xi’s calm gaze, he did not dare to say anything.

“Who do you think can back me up?” Jiang Xi looked at Yang Fen coldly and asked. The director of the mental hospital had said the same thing to her when she first went there. He said that he had the final say in this mental hospital. Then, of course, she took more than 20 mental patients to strip the director of his clothes and throw them into the fountain to wash. She stood by the side and calmly asked the director who had the final say in this mental hospital.

Yang Fen suddenly shivered when she met Jiang Xi’s eyes.

“Jiang Si was the one who arranged my third marriage, right? What nonsense was he spouting?” Jiang Xi could never forget that scene in the original owner’s mind. Although she was not very smart, she was very clear about what she loved and hated. After her engagement with the Du family was called off, Jiang Si secretly asked her to give herself to Du Lin so that she could keep him using her body. After she rejected him, she was even ridiculed by Jiang Si. Yang Fen had definitely heard their conversation at that time, but she had always followed Jiang Si’s lead and naturally did not say anything.

“Your fourth brother has made a mistake, but he had wanted to introduce you to a good marriage. I’ve already explained it to you several times. Don’t mention this again in the future. Your fourth brother is about to take his exams, so don’t bother him with such things.” Yang Fen was a little annoyed.
