I was killed by domestic violence, and I went crazy with barrage

Chapter 216

Anfu.

"It's a coincidence today. My eldest daughter went out to play in the suburbs with her friends. I guess she won't be back until the evening."

Zi Su said to Jiang An Ning as they walked: "My wife asked us to catch the young lady's cat, and now it has just been sent to your courtyard, Jiang Xiu Niang."

"It's just that my eldest daughter really likes this beloved cat. When she comes back, if she doesn't see the cat, she will definitely look for it."

She smiled and said, "So the cat must be sent back before our young lady returns to the courtyard at the latest."

"My wife also said that in order to prevent the young lady from noticing and ruining the surprise on the birthday, she also hoped that you, Jiang Xiu Niang, could make a quick decision and not waste any time."

Jiang Anning:...

She was silent for a while before she spoke indifferently, "So, Sister Zisu wants me to finish an embroidery painting before the evening?"

Shisu was about to say "hmm".

"Is this what Sister Zisu means?" Jiang Anning raised her voice a few notches and asked in a questioning tone.

Zi Su was somewhat frightened by his aura, and the answer that was about to come out of her mouth was swallowed back by her.

She looked at Jiang An Ning's calm yet inexplicably terrifying expression, and was hesitant for a moment, not knowing how to respond.

"Sister Zisu?"

Jiang Anning blinked his eyes and looked at Zi Su innocently, with no trace of the imposing look he had just shown.

Zi Su, however, felt overwhelmed with pressure and was unable to utter a word.

"I……"

She tried hard to calm the strange feeling in her heart and opened her mouth, but it felt like a ball of cotton was stuffed in her throat. She couldn't make any sound and didn't know how to answer.

It really is a ghost!
Fortunately, the two did not stop when they were in a stalemate.

Just when Zi Su didn't know how to respond and was sweating on her forehead due to anxiety, the two of them happened to walk into Miss An's courtyard.

In the yard, there were already maids tidying up quickly. An embroidery frame, benches, and even tea and snacks were set up in the middle of the yard.

Zi Su heaved a sigh of relief, and smiled as if she had been pardoned: "Mrs. Jiang Xiu, please take a quick look, is there anything else that needs to be added or replaced? I'll have someone go and replace it right away!"

Jiang Anning didn't hold on to anyone.

She also changed her face to smile like a normal person: "The preparations are very complete. Madam An is thoughtful, and Sister Zisu is thoughtful."

Jiang An Ning held the water evenly: "However, there is no need for tea and snacks. Please ask Sister Zi Su to replace them!"

"Otherwise, if the embroidery cloth is soiled, wouldn't that really waste time?"

Her double entendre made Zi Su embarrassed.

"Mrs. Jiang Xiu is right. I was negligent."

Zi Su smiled stiffly and apologized: "I'll have someone replace him right away."

She glanced at the maid next to her and asked her to take the snacks away.

"Change to warm water."

Zi Su gave the order calmly, but in fact she was very angry.

Especially when she thought that Jiang An Ning would go to Beijing soon and enter the Jiang'an Marquis Mansion as the number one embroiderer in Jiang'an County appointed by the imperial decree.

As a result, you are more likely to become a popular and talked-about person in the capital, enjoying unlimited glory.

Even though Mrs. An had already analyzed it with her before.

Jiang Anning will not get any good results from his trip to Beijing this time.

The imperial edict naming someone may seem like a gift from heaven, but in reality it is just a death warrant.

There is no glorious or financial future at all.

Not to mention the unclear intention of this imperial edict, there is some conspiracy behind it.

Not to mention how the Jiang'an Marquisate would treat her, the daughter of their enemy.

Even those self-important embroiderers in the capital would not let her go easily.

Not to mention those in the palace who eat the emperor's food.

Just having to deal with all these difficulties was enough to make Jiang Aning very upset.

After going through this bone-breaking ordeal, it is still unknown whether one can stay alive and enjoy the wealth and glory that one has gained.

But even so, she was still very unconvinced in her heart!

Why can a wild girl from the country have such a good life?
But now, she can only coax people in a gentle and kind voice.

If you do something slightly wrong, you might get treated sarcastically in some way.

Whenever Zi Su thought about how she was almost intimidated and forced into speechlessness by Jiang An Ning's aura, she felt very upset.

She had obviously seen a lot of things, so how could she be scared by a yellow-haired girl from the country?

What the hell!

She complained bitterly in her heart, but always had a gentle and appropriate smile on her face.

Jiang Anning saw through it but didn't say anything. He just pretended that he didn't see anything. He also kept smiling and pretended to be nice to others.

Soon the maid took the original tea away and replaced it with warm water.

Jiang Anning nodded slightly to express his gratitude.

Then she sat down in front of the embroidery frame and concentrated on arranging the embroidery threads.

She is very focused when she is doing things.

Seeing that focused look, even Zi Su, who had just felt aggrieved, breathed softly unconsciously, fearing that she might disturb others.

Not to mention the other little maids.

They stared with wide eyes at Jiang An Ning's flying fingers as she sorted out several messy clumps of embroidery threads. They didn't know what kind of magic power those hands had that allowed them to be so precise and quickly sort out embroidery threads of different colors from those messy clumps of threads.

Then, she quickly split the embroidery thread into thirty-two strands with her fingertips.

hiss!
Someone gasped and exclaimed, "Oh my God! That's amazing! How did she do that?"

She was able to split such a thin strand of thread into threads that were even thinner than a hair. "She is indeed an embroiderer that Madam has spent a lot of money to hire. She looks like she is quite skilled."

"I thought she was just a boastful liar before. I heard that she promised our lady that she would embroider our eldest lady's cat while watching it. I thought she was a bold liar who made such a big promise. I was afraid that her true colors would be exposed soon. When that happens, I don't know how it will end. I didn't expect that she is really capable!"

"I also heard that the previous boss Sheng spent a lot of money to organize an embroidery contest for Jiang'an County, and invited many powerful embroiderers from Jiang'an County to show off their skills, just to put down Chaohuang Embroidery Workshop. At that time, the boss Song of Chaohuang Embroidery Workshop was so anxious that he didn't know how to respond. Guess what happened?"

I don't know if this girl often goes to the teahouse to listen to storytelling. Now she is chatting with people furtively, and she doesn't forget to keep people in suspense with her ups and downs.

"What's going on?"

"She got slapped in the face." The little maid snorted complacently, very satisfied with the feeling of being noticed: "I heard that the embroiderer who slapped Sheng Yuewen's face was her!"

"hiss!"

Someone gasped, "I heard that Sheng Yuewen suddenly went crazy because he lost the competition. He broke into the Chaohuang Embroidery Workshop without any warning and almost stabbed Boss Song to death! It turned out to be because of her."

"That's not it."

"If it wasn't for her, I would have suddenly shown off my skills and won the competition, causing Sheng Yuewen to lose face and pay a lot of money. How could I have made someone so angry that he would even risk his life for it?"

"Yes!"

"I heard that although Boss Song was lucky enough to survive, he is lying unconscious in bed. It may be difficult for him to wake up in this lifetime."

"But look at her, she doesn't look like she feels guilty at all. She doesn't even look sad at all. Instead, she happily comes to our house and eats delicious food and drinks!"

"What a heartless person."

Although the maids deliberately lowered their voices, it did not prevent them from standing behind Jiang An Ning, only about one meter away.

Not to mention that Jiang Anning's five senses are extremely sensitive and his hearing and eyesight are very sharp. Even if he is an ordinary person, as long as he is not deaf, it is difficult for him to not hear the discussions of these people.

And Zi Su on the side had no intention of stopping it.

She completely let these little maids go and deliberately blamed her for Sheng Yuewen's murder of Song Yao.

Jiang Anning just felt confused.

She stopped sewing and did something that surprised everyone.

She turned her head to look at the maids who had pointed out something, and asked bluntly, "So, you think that the person who really harmed Sister Song was me, not Sheng Yuewen?"

"You are trying to say that Sheng Yuewen was not at fault for killing someone out of spite, and that I was at fault for preventing him from plotting against Chaohuang Embroidery Workshop, right?"

"It was me who ruined his plan and prevented him from succeeding, which made him dissatisfied and resentful, and thus led him to commit crimes. So the fault is mine, right?"

Several maids were all startled and looked at Zi Su in panic.

"do you mean this?"

Jiang Anning asked again, also looking at Zisu.

Zisu:……

She swallowed subconsciously.

Damn it!
What a hell!
That strange feeling of horror just now appeared again!
Everyone looked at Zi Su. Zi Su remained silent, so they also remained silent.

The air suddenly became eerily quiet.

Jiang Anning just looked at them quietly, as if she would just wait like this until the other party gave her an answer.

Seeing that the atmosphere was becoming more and more awkward, and Jiang An Ning was acting like a stubborn person, Zi Su was full of resentment, but she had to stand up and smile awkwardly: "What's the point? We were just chatting casually. Jiang Xiu Niang, please don't be angry. It's just a misunderstanding..."

"Misunderstand?"

Jiang An Ning sneered, with a hint of mockery on the corners of his slightly raised mouth. His gloomy look made Zi Su, who accidentally looked into his eyes, feel very uncomfortable. She swallowed her saliva and shuddered, an indescribable fear rising in her heart.

"Then please ask Sister Zisu to help me solve this problem."

Jiang Anning stared at Zisu with burning eyes, as if there was a fire burning in her heart.

Her face was serious, and she asked in a resounding voice, "What do you mean Sheng Yuewen suddenly went crazy, broke into Chaohuang Embroidery Workshop without any warning, and almost stabbed Boss Song to death? It was because of me?"

"What do you mean if it wasn't for me showing off my skills and winning the competition, causing Sheng Yuewen to lose face and lose money, how could I have provoked someone to be so angry that they would risk their life?"

"Why should I feel guilty?"

"You said I was heartless and had never seen any sadness. I happily came to your house to enjoy the delicious food and drinks?"

Jiang Anning swept his gaze across everyone's faces expressionlessly. His eyes were cold and indifferent, like a deep ancient well, which made people shudder. They avoided his gaze and dared not meet his gaze.

Zi Su was so embarrassed that she could hardly keep her smile.

"It turns out that what you said was not an accusation against me, but a misunderstanding on my part, right?"

A thin layer of sweat suddenly covered Zi Su's forehead. She was so anxious that she even forgot her manners. She gestured with her hands and explained hastily, "That's not what we meant..."

"Then Sister Zisu, please tell me, what exactly do you mean?"

Jiang An Ning raised her chin slightly, with a mocking arc on the corner of her mouth. She looked coldly at Zi Su, who was about to cry and wanted to explain her innocence: "If I really misunderstood you, then I will definitely pour tea to apologize for you sisters."

When Zi Su heard this, which still left some room for maneuver, she breathed a sigh of relief. Her mind started working quickly, and she found a reasonable excuse and was about to say it.

"But if you can't explain it clearly and still insist on making excuses, then we can't bear to talk about it in detail."

Jiang An Ning snorted: "If your family thinks that I come here to work for free food and drink, and thinks that I have bad character and even caused innocent people to commit heinous crimes, then I will leave!"

"But before we leave, we still have to go to the government office and have this matter explained clearly."

"I don't want to hear some bad words about me outside or somewhere else one day."

The curve of Jiang Anning's mouth deepened a little, but his eyes were as calm as the deep and still water of a well, cold as ice: "There are even worse people who spread rumors and put the crime of Sheng Yuewen on me."

"Since someone said today that Sheng Yuewen killed people in revenge because I didn't let his evil plan succeed, there may be people who will say in the future that he killed people in revenge because he was instructed by me."

"Then who will defend my innocence when no one is around and I can't hear you?"

"As time goes by, all that is spread outside are fabricated and slanderous words. Who will know and who will believe that I am innocent?"

"I am still alive and well, but there are already people who are wantonly stigmatizing me. If I die one day, won't my reputation after death also be affected?"

Everyone looked ashamed and lowered their heads, not daring to look him in the eye.

But there is still resentment in my heart.

Isn't this person making a big deal out of nothing?
