son, don't mess around

Chapter 703: Impersonating an Adulterer

Lin Jiangnian was stunned for a moment, then he realized something and asked in surprise: "Aunt, who bullied you again?"

Seeing Jiang Yuxiang's extremely unhappy reaction, Lin Jiangnian immediately realized that maybe someone had provoked her again?

"Of course it's you, you little brat!"

Jiang Yuxiang said angrily.

Lin Jiangnian waved his hands for no reason: "I didn't do anything!"

Can this blame be put on him?
"You didn't do anything, so you can't make me angry?" Jiang Yuxiang glanced at him.

Got it!
Lin Jiangnian finally understood why his aunt had such a bad reputation in Jiangnan!

Love is also an unreasonable person!

If you think about it carefully, it seems to be true. In terms of age, my aunt seems to be quite old, but in fact, as the fourth daughter of the Jiang family, she grew up in a greenhouse and has always been a girl who is almost ignorant of the world.

Recalling the time when they were in the capital, Jiang Yuxiang deliberately pretended to be an elder in front of him, Lin Jiangnian couldn't help laughing.

Jiang Yuxiang also quickly caught the smile on Lin Jiangnian's face and immediately asked unkindly: "What are you laughing at?"

"I'm not laughing."

"Ah!"

Jiang Yuxiang glanced at him unhappily: "You are also a heartless person."

Lin Jiangnian suppressed his laughter and asked, "What happened? Who made you unhappy, aunt?"

"tell me the story?"

"Who else could it be?"

Jiang Yuxiang sighed softly, came to the pavilion in the courtyard, sat down at the stone table, and rolled his eyes: "That dog-skin plaster of the Xu family."

"Xu family?"

Lin Jiangnian thought about it briefly and quickly remembered: "Are you talking about the Xu family's aunt who is your suitor?"

"Who else could it be but him?"

Jiang Yuxiang said angrily.

"What's up with him?"

Lin Jiangnian was surprised. He had heard of the young master of the Xu family. It was rumored that he was quite infatuated.
It is quite popular among many women in Chujiang City!
"He's so annoying!"

Jiang Yuxiang sighed: "I don't know how many times I have clearly rejected him, but he is like a dog-skin plaster that ruins my mood!"

At this point, Jiang Yuxiang gritted her teeth, her pretty face full of indignation: "I really want to slap him!"

This was something Lin Jiangnian had not expected: "Aunt doesn't like him?"

"if not?"

"Why?"

"What other reasons do you need?"

Jiang Yuxiang sneered: "Does he look like a good person?"

"I haven't seen it, but I heard it has a good reputation?"

"That's all just pretend!"

Jiang Yuxiang sneered: "I have said it before, most of the dandies in Chujiang City are not good people. These people are either pedantic and old-fashioned, or vulgar and dissolute. Even worse, there are people like Xu Xiuzhu who seem serious and polite on the surface, but are actually scum, dirty and vulgar..."

From Jiang Yuxiang's tone, one can clearly tell how dissatisfied she is with Xu Xiuzhu.

No wonder she was in a bad mood when she heard that the other party was looking for her.

If it were Lin Jiangnian, he would probably feel uncomfortable too.

"Then, I'll send someone to teach that brat a lesson and vent your anger for you, aunt?"

Lin Jiangnian suggested.

"Forget it……"

Jiang Yuxiang sighed again and waved his hand: "After all, the Xu family is not a small family. If you touch him, it will inevitably cause greater trouble, which will be disadvantageous to you."

"Don't worry, Auntie. I'm always reliable and I won't leave any traces."

Lin Jiangnian said with a smile.

It was not difficult for him to teach Xu Xiuzhu a lesson.

Even if his aunt wanted Xu Xiuzhu to disappear from the world today, Lin Jiangnian would not find it difficult. Although it might cause some trouble, it would not be a big deal.

"No, don't mess around!"

Jiang Yuxiang was worried that Lin Jiangnian would act impulsively, so her expression changed slightly, and then she said, "I know you are very capable, but you can't just do whatever you want with that."

"The Xu family has a good relationship with our Jiang family. Although we can't say they are old friends, we have been very close in recent years and have had many business dealings with each other. If something happens to Xu Xiuzhu, it will not be good for anyone."

Lin Jiangnian sighed: "I can't let you, my aunt, be harassed by him all the time, right?"

"We have to find a way to solve it."

Jiang Yuxiang sighed: "If there was a way, I would have thought of it a long time ago, why bother..."

If there was a way, why would she run away from home and go to the capital last year?

The best way is to escape.

"How about you come with us to the Linwang Mansion, Auntie?"

Lin Jiangnian suggested that as long as they left Chujiang City, they would not be harassed.

This suggestion made Jiang Yuxiang's eyes light up slightly. She knew that Lin Jiangnian was here to take Zhiyuan and the others back. After Zhiyuan and the others returned, she would be the only one left in the Jiang family.

It is indeed too boring to stay here. It seems like a good suggestion to go to Prince Lin's Palace.
"But it's only a temporary solution, not a permanent one!"

Jiang Yuxiang sighed. After all, the Jiang Mansion was her home and she would return sooner or later.

This dog-skin plaster doesn't solve the problem, it keeps disgusting her and ruins her reputation from time to time.

In recent years, Jiang Yuxiang has personally experienced the power of rumors and moral blackmail.

Ever since Xu Xiuzhu got involved with her, her reputation in Chujiang City had changed. Especially as time went on, many people began to accuse her of being ungrateful.

A daughter who was adopted by Mr. Jiang and has no Jiang family blood in her, yet she acts so arrogantly?
Mr. Xu is devoted to her and has been pursuing her for so many years, but Jiang Yuxiang still doesn't give him any face. She is too heartless.

It is said that even the coldest heart can be warmed, but the fourth young lady of the Jiang family is too cold-blooded!
...Jiang Yuxiang has heard too many comments like this, and they basically accuse her of being ungrateful.

It was as if Xu Xiuzhu had been pursuing her for so many years, so she had to agree, and if she didn't agree it meant that there was something wrong with her character?
Are you sorry for your infatuation with me?
This made Jiang Yuxiang very angry!

How come it's her fault?

Even many friends began to persuade Jiang Yuxiang, why not just give in to Mr. Xu?
After all, Master Xu has been sincere to you for so many years, blah blah...

Jiang Yuxiang's ears were covered with calluses from listening so much.

The more this happened, the more rebellious she became!

Why?
Why do you kidnap her morally?
Looking at his aunt with an angry face, Lin Jiangnian felt more sympathetic.

"Aunt, if you want to completely solve this problem, there are indeed several ways."

Lin Jiangnian spoke hesitantly.

Hearing this, Jiang Yuxiang's eyes lit up: "What's the solution? Tell me about it."

"The simplest and most brutal one is naturally..."

Lin Jiangnian used his hand as a knife and sneered, "Just be quick and kill him with one blow!"

Jiang Yuxiang: "..."

"another!"

"Then let him live, but find a way to drug him and cripple him... so that he can no longer be a man!"

Jiang Yuxiang: "..."

"Can you please say something serious?" she asked shyly.

Lin Jiangnian sighed: "I'm talking about serious matters."

Lin Jiangnian has a hundred simple and crude ways to solve this problem.

"Aunt, if you want to solve this problem without hurting him, I'm afraid it will be a bit troublesome."

"for example?"

Lin Jiangnian glanced at her and said, "Aunt, you can find someone to marry, so that you won't be missed by others!"

Jiang Yuxiang wanted to refuse, but was stunned for a moment and changed his mind.

It seems like this is indeed a solution?
But problems soon arose again.

"Marry who?"

"How should I know?" Lin Jiangnian waved his hand: "Does my aunt have a lover?"

sweetheart?
Hearing this, Jiang Yuxiang instinctively glanced at Lin Jiangnian for some reason. But then she suddenly reacted and quickly looked away.

"No."

"Not even half?"

"No."

"What about the person you like?"

Lin Jiangnian relaxed the conditions a bit: "What about the man you think is good?"

"No."

"You can't find even half of it?"

"Ah."

"..."

After a while, Lin Jiangnian sighed deeply: "Aunt, how did you grow up?"

Jiang Yuxiang could hear the sarcasm in Lin Jiangnian's tone, and immediately became furious: "What do you mean, you little brat?"

"I mean, there really aren't any men that your aunt knows around you?"

"Why not? Do you think I'm the same as you?"

Jiang Yuxiang glanced at him and sneered, "Can't live without a woman?"

Lin Jiangnian: "..."

"This is a personal attack!"

"Am I not telling the truth?"

Lin Jiangnian was speechless.

He really wanted to refute, but when he thought of the women around him, he really didn't have the confidence to refute.

"Then there's really nothing we can do!"

Lin Jiangnian spread his hands and said, "If it doesn't work, you can find someone to pretend to be Xu Xiuzhu and make him give up."

"Find someone to pretend to be a fake?"

Lin Jiangnian had just mentioned it casually, but Jiang Yuxiang was stunned for a moment after hearing it. Then, after pondering and hesitating for a while, she realized that it seemed...it might work?
Find someone to impersonate me and make Xu Xiuzhu give up. In this way, he should not bother me anymore, right?

but……

Where can I find a fake person?
Although Jiang Yuxiang grew up in Chujiang City, she didn't know many friends of the opposite sex, and most of them had already started families and careers. Even if there were some second-rate guys... but forget about them!
None of them are good!

As she thought about it, Jiang Yuxiang's gaze gradually returned to Lin Jiangnian. She stared at him for a few seconds, and then her eyes gradually began to brighten.

Lin Jiangnian soon noticed that Jiang Yuxiang's eyes began to become scorching. She stared at him and was stunned: "Aunt, why are you looking at me like that?!"

"What you said about finding someone to pretend to be me doesn't seem to be a problem..."

Jiang Yuxiang spoke.

"so what?"

Lin Jiangnian spoke subconsciously, and then he noticed that his aunt's eyes were fixed on him. Soon he seemed to realize something: "Aunt, you are not...looking for me, are you?!"

"That's right!"

"This is not okay!"

Lin Jiangnian was stunned and immediately refused: "This is not appropriate!"

"Why is it inappropriate?"

"You are mine..."

"There's no blood relationship!"

"That's not appropriate either..."

Lin Jiangnian had never expected that Jiang Yuxiang would set her sights on him: "Can you find someone else to impersonate me?"

Jiang Yuxiang sighed: "If I can find someone else, why would I need to look for you?"

"But I can't do that either..."

Lin Jiangnian spread his hands: "It will be exposed!"

"will not!"

Jiang Yuxiang stared at Lin Jiangnian and said unhappily, "Do you know what's going on outside right now?"

"what?"

"Now the people of Chujiang City are spreading rumors about me..."

At this point, Jiang Yuxiang paused, glanced at him, bit her red lips, and said unhappily: "They said I brought an 'adulterer' back to the Jiang family!"

Lin Jiangnian: "..."

"Who spread the rumor?"

How did he become an adulterer?
"Who else could it be other than Sun Yan?" Jiang Yuxiang sneered, "She is the one who keeps spreading rumors outside. Now people are saying that you are the gigolo I brought home."

Lin Jiangnian hadn't paid much attention to news from the outside world in the past two days, but he didn't expect that the news had spread so outrageously.

Jiang Yuxiang stared at Lin Jiangnian with a complicated look in his eyes, and then said, "Since the news has spread like this outside, we can just take advantage of him."

"what do you mean……"

"Since there are rumors out there that you are the 'adulterer' I brought back, why not just use this information and identity to pretend to be my...'adulterer' for a while, and then let Xu Xiuzhu know the news!"

Jiang Yuxiang's face flushed slightly, thinking in her heart, the news outside was spreading like wildfire, Xu Xiuzhu must have heard about it. However, he probably wouldn't believe it completely without seeing it with his own eyes.

"So, when the time comes, find an opportunity, and you and I will appear in front of Xu Xiuzhu and make him selfish..."

Lin Jiangnian was a little dazed.

Impersonating her 'adulterer'?
Is this appropriate?

Lin Jiangnian looked at Jiang Yuxiang, who had a delicate face and gentle temperament.

Isn't this a bit too...

"Is this really okay?"

Lin Jiangnian hesitated.

Jiang Yuxiang was a little embarrassed at first. After all, this was indeed a bit inappropriate. After all, the relationship between the two of them...

But when she saw Lin Jiangnian was also so hesitant, she felt relieved.

Then he said, "I don't think there's any problem. What problem can a grown man like you have?"

"Besides, you don't suffer any loss in this matter, I am the one who suffers!"

Jiang Yuxiang glared at him with her beautiful eyes: "I am a beautiful girl, pretending to have such a relationship with you. I don't even care about my reputation. What are you afraid of?"

After hearing her words, Lin Jiangnian gradually felt relieved.

Indeed, he shouldn't be so entangled. Since his aunt was not worried about anything, he naturally had nothing to worry about.

"OK then."

Lin Jiangnian nodded: "What should I do?"

"Wait until we have the chance to meet Xu Xiuzhu, and then we'll act accordingly!"

Jiang Yuxiang said.

At this moment, footsteps were heard outside the courtyard again: "Miss, Mr. Xu left, but left a letter for you."

"What letter?"

Jiang Yuxiang originally wanted to wave her hand and not read it, but soon thought of something: "Wait, let me see the letter."

The maid handed the letter over and left the courtyard.

Jiang Yuxiang opened the letter and looked down at it. Lin Jiangnian also walked behind his aunt and leaned closer: "What did he say?"

Jiang Yuxiang took a look at the contents of the letter and her eyes suddenly lit up.

"good chance!"

"What?" Lin Jiangnian was confused.

"Mid-Autumn Festival is coming in two days. There will be a grand poetry gathering in Chujiang City. Xu Xiuzhu asked me to go with him then!"

Jiang Yuxiang's eyes were slightly excited: "It's a good opportunity for you to come with me... to make him give up!"

"..."
