Chapter 159 Gangster
Wang Shang’s idea was very good, as long as everything developed as he expected.

how...

"An Ning girl, what do you mean by this? Do you look down on us and want to humiliate us with silver?"

"You are so generous all of a sudden. Could it be that you did something evil outside and have dirty money in your hands? Are you waiting to use us as a scapegoat when the soldiers catch you?"

After much thought, the villagers felt that this explanation was the most reasonable.

If Jiang An Ning didn't take dirty money, why would she be so generous and not hide the good money herself, but give it to them for free?
There must be a problem with money, and he wants to harm them!
"Well, you thief girl, you are so black-hearted!"

"Are you trying to send us all to jail?"

"Jiang Anning, Jiang Anning, how can you be so vicious? None of the young and old men in our village have ever wronged you. How can you be so cruel and plot against us like this?"

Jiang Anning didn't say a word. She didn't even have the chance to say a word before these people had already imagined a big scenario in which she was going to harm them.

"I've seen it for a long time. This girl is not a good person since she was young. When her parents were alive, she was always stealing. She would steal melons from one family or plums from another. Whenever the apricots were ripe, she would go to other people's houses and eat and take everything. She would stay up late at night and knock away all the apricots while they were asleep. She is very vicious!"

Jiang Anning:...

How could she not remember whose melons, plums and apricots she had picked...

"Isn't it the case that a child is born by parents but not raised by them? I used to feel sorry for her and had some sympathy for her, but now it seems that the old saying is true! There must be something hateful about this pitiful person. Look, here comes the hateful thing, right?"

Jiang An Ning's face turned black and blue, and she really wanted to go up and tear apart those people who always liked to call her fatherless and motherless.

"Put your money away quickly. We don't want this dirty money that came from unknown sources!"

"That's it!"

"Even if this money didn't come from an unknown source, or was stolen or swindled by someone who did something heinous, who knows, someone must have done something shameful and despicable to earn such a large sum of money!"

Everyone echoed the voice one after another, saying that they didn't want it and thought it was dirty.

But everyone's eyes were glued to the silver note.

My eyes are red from thinking about money.

Jiang Anning looked at these villagers who were taking it for granted to belittle, humiliate and spread rumors about her, and suddenly found it a little funny.

"Is it difficult to admit that you are a coward if you are too timid to take it?"

"Why do you all have to speak so righteously here, as if you hate evil so much? In fact, if you can't get the money, you must be vomiting blood in your heart."

"Don't you want the money?"

"You are obviously afraid that you will be punished for taking this money."

"But you don't want me, who has all this money, to have a good life, so you show your ugly face! You slander me with some unfounded black spots, and then attack me with such certainty and seriousness, do you think you can cover up your ugly face in this way?"

Jiang Anning gave up his previous desire to prove himself whenever he was wronged, and instead began to attack everyone indiscriminately.

Someone looked as if his underwear had been revealed, his face flushed, and he glared at Jiang Anning: "Do you dare to say that you are really going to give us this money?"

Jiang Anning smiled and walked forward without hesitation, and handed the banknote in his hand to the man again: "Why don't you take it?"

The person who just spoke was so scared that he stepped back repeatedly, fearing that he would accidentally get his hands on the money.

I want it, I really want it...but I don’t dare!

The man was extremely heartbroken, but he could only step back in a hurry and keep a distance from the silver note that was handed to him.

"Stop pretending here and stay away from me!"

"How dare you say that we are hypocritical and ugly? I think it's you who are just saying one thing and thinking another, and you are trying to turn the tables on us!"

The man sneered with a guilty and arrogant look on his face: "There is no way you can really give us this money. You are just pretending here!"

"In fact, you just want to wait for us to take the money, and then go to the government office and sue us for extortion!"

Jiang Anning was slightly surprised.

Seeing that she didn't say anything, the man instantly felt that he was right. After he breathed a sigh of relief, he was not so panicked anymore: "So, I was right, wasn't I?"

"I think this is how Zhao Hai was tricked by you!"

"Now, you want to do the same thing again, using the method that harmed Zhao Hai to harm all of us..."

Jiang Anning suddenly burst into laughter, and the louder she laughed, she abruptly interrupted the man's malicious speculation.

"W-why are you laughing?"

"Isn't what I said right? You are..."

Jiang Anning's eyes were full of smiles, as if he was watching something funny and amusing: "You said that the reason you didn't want to take the money from me is because you think that if you take it, I will send you to jail?"

"Yes, that's right! You, you admitted it yourself!"

Jiang Anning laughed even louder: "Indeed, it seems that you have admitted that you have some ill intentions towards me! Oh, the other people you represent have admitted it!"

Jiang Anning pointed her finger at the person who had just accused her of having ulterior motives.

He looks a bit unfamiliar.

He doesn't look like someone from their village, at least not a familiar face.

"Bullshit!" The man was instantly glared at by many people. He jumped up and down in panic and cursed: "When did I admit that we had evil intentions towards you? You, you, you are just blaming me!"

Jiang Anning calmly straightened his sleeves and said, "That's what you just told me. You guys are plotting something bad against me."

"If you hadn't been plotting against me and blackmailing me, why would you be so guilty and afraid that I would report you to the police and have you all arrested and thrown into jail?"

"So you also know that asking me for money is wrong, it's illegal, and you'll go to jail!"

Jiang Anning suddenly spoke up: "How dare you slander me here?"

"Do you really think that just by sticking together, you can turn a lie into reality?"

"God knows what you did."

"What's true is true, and what's false is false."

"Justice will not be biased towards you just because you confuse right and wrong and say a few shameless words."

Because of her sudden loud noise, everyone's heart trembled, and they felt flustered and guilty, and they didn't dare to look at anyone.

"Girl An Ning, what's going on with this money of yours?"

Patriarch Jiang was extremely jealous when he saw the money.

Seeing Jiang Anning so "sincerely" trying to "force" money on them, he was not after money, he just felt that people from the same village lived together and should help each other when they had difficulties...

He just looked at Jiang An Ning and felt that she was really wronged and pitiful, so he wanted to help her.

That's it!

No other thoughts at all!

It’s not about being greedy for money and sucking blood!

"If you really want to give us the money, we can accept it."

Chief Jiang put on the airs of a clan leader and said, "But you have to tell us where the money came from. Otherwise, if we are really implicated, we will die for you without knowing why..."

"Girl An Ning, you should know that I am doing this for your own good. Otherwise, if something really happens and everyone falls out, it will be embarrassing for everyone."

"When that time comes, there will be nothing we can do. We can no longer be real relatives." It seemed as if asking them to collect the money would be really difficult and awkward.

Aunt Fang stood aside, dumbfounded, looking at everyone in disbelief.

This is this...

Is this something a normal person would say?
Good guy, I give you money and you still have to beg you to accept it, right?

At this moment, she didn't even want to say "shameless".

It is really an understatement to use the word "shameless" to describe these people.

How could there be such a shameless person in the world?
How can there be such shameless people in the world!

Sui Ran also found it incredible.

She even felt that these were not words that a normal person could say.

In the past, the people in the village seemed quite normal, right?

Why now, I can’t tell whether the people standing in front of me are human or ghost?

"Patriarch Jiang, you should go see a doctor as soon as possible!"

Jiang An Ning did not explain where the money came from. He glanced at everyone and saw that they really wanted it but did not dare to take it. They were so timid. Suddenly, he lost all desire to play anymore. He folded the banknote and put it away. He called Aunt Fang and Sui Ran, then turned around and left.

"You, you stop!"

Chief Jiang was so angry: "What do you mean, Jiang Anning, stop right there, stop right there!"

He knocked his crutch on the ground, making a loud noise, but it did not affect Jiang An Ning's departure at all.

"Unfilial fellow, unfilial fellow!"

"You don't even listen to your elders. You will be punished sooner or later!"

"Jiang Anning, stop right there!"

"Explain to me clearly, why should I go to see a doctor earlier?"

Chief Jiang was so angry that his eyes felt dizzy and he was filled with hatred.

Suddenly, someone said faintly, "She seems to be saying that your brain is not in good condition and you are going to get dementia. Go see a doctor early and you can prevent it."

Chief Jiang’s eyes instantly gave him a murderous look.

"I think she once said that she has no real relationship with us and told you not to flatter yourself."

The man sighed and said, "Chief, it seems like you should really go see a doctor. Don't worry you have a serious illness."

"Yeah, why do they seem to only remember to eat and not to be beaten?" Someone echoed quietly.

Chief Jiang was nearly pissed off by everyone saying the same thing: "What the hell are you talking about!"

He was so angry that he screamed, "Who am I doing this for?"

"It's all for the common benefit of our village!"

"Now, it's all my fault in the end?"

"You are so supportive of Jiang Anning, why didn't you say anything when he was here just now?"

"Why are you coming to me now?"

"Are you still counting on me to pass on these good words to Jiang Anning for you?"

Chief Jiang rolled his eyes, turned around and left.

The man shrugged nonchalantly.

But he couldn't help but feel worried, and said to the others: "Tell me, if we just follow the tribe leader to do such a heartless thing, will there really be a good ending?"

Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent.

They all thought of what happened back then at the same time.

"Those people kill people without hesitation and treat human life as worthless. They don't care about the lives of people like us. Even if we act according to their demands, when we are no longer of any use, they may not let us go."

"But if we don't do this, what else can we do?"

Someone was resentful and said, "Obviously, all these bad things were done by Zhao Hai's family. We just need to pretend to be ignorant and pretend that we know nothing... Why did Jiang An Ning go crazy and kill all the Zhao family members out of nowhere?"

"It's all Jiang Anning's fault!"

"If you marry into the Zhao family, there won't be so many problems, right?"

"How about we find another Zhao family?"

"That's easy for you to say. Where can we find another Zhao family? There are quite a few in the village who don't know what happened back then. They covet Jiang Anning's property and want their sons to show their faces in front of more people and win Jiang Anning's heart. It would be best if they could make it a done deal and marry this golden brick without spending a penny."

But how could Jiang Anning look down upon these peasants in the village?
"This woman has seen what she is like outside. She is easily restless! Nowadays, even if someone in the village comes to propose marriage, Jiang An Ning will not be accepted."

"How about we go find one in the city?"

"If that doesn't work, go to a brothel and buy one, and forge some identities..."

Everyone was silent, as if they were thinking about the feasibility of this matter.

Until another voice broke the silence: "Where do we get the money?"

I also went to the prostitutes’ house to buy people…

It would cost a lot of money to stay in there for a night and just watch some simple singing and dancing, which was more than they could afford even if they emptied their pockets.

Buy someone?

I'm afraid even if I push myself in, it still won't be enough!
Everyone fell silent again.

"How about we let Old Ginger figure it out?"

"Back then, he was a cook in our mountain. He flattered those nobles and got the dignity of being the clan leader now. We have been hiding all these years and dared not show our faces, especially when that kid surnamed Jiang was around..."

"Now that Jiang has run away, why should we be bossed around by a cook who just runs errands?"

Several people looked at each other and thought this idea was feasible.

"Okay, let Old Ginger do it!"

"If you can't do it, cut off his head!"

"Damn it, at worst I can go back to the mountains and be a bandit again!"

"I'm tired of you pretending to be a good person in this shitty place for half your life!"

After making up their minds, they followed the direction where Patriarch Jiang left.

Old Jiangtou is none other than the leader of the Jiang clan.

He used to be a cook for the bandits in the mountains, running errands and doing odd jobs.
-
Jiang Anning thought about it and felt that instead of sending the money to Buddhist temples or monasteries, it would be better to donate it to Anjifang.

The imperial court established Anjifang, Ciyutang and other places. Although it would allocate silver for subsidies from time to time, it did not reject donations from wealthy merchants.

When the donation reaches a certain amount, the government will issue a plaque to the donor as an encouragement.
