Chapter 275
Sui Ran sighed sadly, "To be honest, Auntie, even though we have built a new house in the village now, I still want to move out."
"Stay as far away from them as possible!"
"With an older brother and two younger children at home, there is no need to worry about the two elderly people being left unattended."
"Jiang Guicheng and I will just pay the pension on time."
Sui Ran sighed: "I really don't know what they are thinking."
"How can you feel so at ease asking An Ning for money?"
"Anyone who has helped An Ning in the past can now repay the favor with an excuse."
"At most I can say a few words to criticize this person, but it's not incomprehensible."
"There are all kinds of people in this world. Everyone has different moral standards. Some have high moral standards, some have low moral standards, and some fluctuate!"
"But it's someone else's business after all, I have no right to interfere."
"Even if my family is really in trouble and can't make ends meet, and I want to make a living and ask An Ning for help, I think that with An Ning's good temper and compassion, she will definitely help!"
Wasn't it like this for her in the beginning? She was helped by someone and only then did she have the good life she has today?
But she really couldn't understand what those people in the village were thinking.
"Tell me what these people are thinking?"
"Especially at the beginning, An Ning clearly said that she was willing to lead everyone to make money and do business, right?"
"Even at the beginning, before An Ning had anything to do with that bastard from the Zhao family, she was happy to teach the women in the village how to embroider."
"But what's the result?"
"They all don't know what's good for them! The men in the family are no good, forcing them to learn without hesitation. They are so shameless, trying to take advantage of An Ning for free, as if they are afraid that the women in the family will have the ability to make money."
"Then we talked about raising silkworms..."
Sui Ran frowned: "Although everyone has heard about this job from the beginning, it is not a job that can make a lot of money."
"But it's better than farming in this barren place!"
"How much can that kind of land yield in a year?"
"How many years have we been farming in this place?"
"Don't you have any idea in your mind?"
"Does it make money? How much is left after paying taxes?"
"Who in the village doesn't know this?"
"As for raising silkworms, let's not talk about how much profit we can make. First of all, it does not interfere with farming. The harvest we get is the surplus from farming!"
"I can't say that my family can live a better life, but at least they can have a full meal."
"Not to mention, An Ning is a good businessman."
"Look at this silkworm breeding business, which originally wasn't very profitable, and now it's doing so well for him."
"But look at what those people in the village do?"
"At the beginning, everyone said they would follow An Ning in everything, big or small."
"But what's the result?"
"Everyone speaks better than they sing!"
"When the time comes, I regret it."
"Not only did he not do what he said, but he actually tried to blackmail An Ning!"
"Just ask for three hundred or two hundred taels!"
“I really don’t know what’s going on in their brains.”
"Let's not talk about this matter for now. Is it righteous or not? Is what they did justified? Don't they understand the principle of killing the goose that lays the eggs?"
"Even if they really get these three hundred or two hundred taels of silver, the clan leader will definitely take the lion's share. How much money can be left to them?"
"But if they are at ease and follow An Ning to raise silkworms, I don't know how much they can earn, right? At least the money will be a continuous source, and there will be surplus every year!"
"There are obviously better ways, but they choose the stupidest one!"
"If you don't know, you might think An Ning owes them something."
"An Ning is good-tempered and doesn't bother with them, but they are becoming more and more shameless and demanding!"
Aunt Fang couldn't help but sigh.
Sui Ran was married in later, not long after all.
She knew more about the inside story than Sui Ran.
The reason why these people in the village want to exploit Jiang Anning again and again without any bottom line is because someone is fanning the flames behind the scenes.
But at the beginning, those people didn't go so far.
Still have some shame.
Also know how to restrain yourself.
"We just need to know these words ourselves."
Aunt Fang glanced in the direction of the box door and sighed, "If An Ning heard this, I don't know how upset she would be."
Who would want to be a lonely star that everyone avoids?
An Ning had done nothing wrong, yet she was ostracized and isolated. If this goes on for a long time, it's hard to guarantee that she won't develop extreme thoughts.
Sui Ran quickly made a gesture to keep quiet and became much more careful.
Jiang Anning stood at the stairs, adjusted her expression slightly, smiled relaxedly, and walked back to the box.
As if she didn't hear what Aunt Fang and Sui Ran said, she smiled and said, "I've asked them to prepare the food. I think it will be ready soon."
Aunt Fang and Sui Ran agreed with a smile.
After having a good meal and a few drinks, Jiang Anning took the two of them to Chaohuang Embroidery Workshop to settle down.
"Please help me contact Mr. Song about buying the land."
Jiang Anning drank tea and asked Duan Qingshan to do something.
Duan Qingshan hesitated for a moment and carefully looked at the man's expression: "Master, you?"
"how?"
Jiang Anning looked at him with a half-smile: "Didn't you tell me that Mr. Song could help mediate and sell me the nearby land at a low price?"
Duan Qingshan looked cautious: "But weren't you unwilling before?"
"Now I am willing again, isn't it?"
Jiang Anning put down the cup calmly and asked back with a smile.
Duan Qingshan's scalp tingled when he was looked at. He hesitated and didn't know what to do. He stopped where he was, not knowing whether to leave or try to figure out what the person meant.
"I'll go see Zhao Jiang."
Jiang Anning stood up, glanced at Duan Qingshan, and said nothing more.
"Yes."
Duan Qingshan watched the man go away, not daring to guess what he was thinking.
-
In the abandoned house.
Dry well.
Jiang Anning slid down the rope, stepped over the place where Zhao Yinlian's body used to lie, walked to a patch of green ivy, and gently pushed open a stone door.
"Who?"
Suddenly, the sloppy man rushed towards her like a mad dog, howling.
Jiang Anning stood still, like a mad dog, and was soon pulled back by the thick iron chain around his neck.
"Who?"
Jiang Anning chuckled: "Who else can come here to see you?"
“Jiang Anning, Jiang Anning, Jiang Anning, ah ah ah ah…”
After Zhao Jiang read out this name, his whole body couldn't help but tremble a few times, and he screamed and whimpered, turning around in circles.
He trembled and held his head, sobbing and begging: "Don't hit me, don't hit me, don't hit me."
"I told you everything."
"do not hit me."
Jiang Anning smiled slightly: "Did you say everything?"
"But why did I hear some new information today?" She picked up the stick next to her and pressed it against the man's chin: "Did you really tell me everything?"
"me……"
"I'm giving you one last chance to confess."
Jiang Anning moved the stick in his hand upwards and stabbed it directly into Zhao Jiang's mouth, loosening his teeth and causing blood to flow.
"Woooooooo..."
Zhao Jiang kept kowtowing and begging: "I really said everything. I don't know anything anymore."
"Let me go please."
When the sticks rained down on Zhao Jiang, he was dazed for a moment, then gradually felt the pain and began to roll on the ground.
"I really don't know anything anymore."
Jiang Anning showed no mercy and swung the stick faster and faster, hitting the people in painful places.
Zhao Jiang ate too many mushrooms, and the pain in his body would be temporarily relieved for a while.
At first I just felt like a piece of flesh being beaten continuously.
I couldn't feel any pain at all.
After a while, you will feel an explosive sensation of dense pain that sweeps through your entire body and reaches your brain.
It hurts too much.
"I really don't know anything anymore."
He subconsciously hugged his head, trying to escape the stick.
"When those people came, I was still young and I had no idea who they were."
"All I know is that they found my father, mother, and eldest brother, gave us some money, and asked us to help with some work."
"As for the rest, I really don't know."
"What I said is real."
Zhao Jiang sobbed and curled up into a ball, holding his head, trying desperately to hide in the corner.
However, there was a chain around his neck, which was as thick as an adult man's arm, making it difficult for him to move and he was unable to break free.
"What about Tian Yan?"
Jiang Anning suddenly asked.
Zhao Jiang was at a loss for a long time: "What Tian Yan?"
"Your mother, Zhang, wants to find a wife for you. Her maiden name is Tian."
Jiang Anning's eyes were gloomy.
In the past six months, the only thing she couldn't understand was how Tian Yan, who used to marry Zhao Jiang and became her sister-in-law, could now become the eldest daughter of the An family.
Moreover, Tian Yan and Mrs. An look nothing alike.
But she had people keeping an eye on Mrs. An and Miss An for nearly half a year, and she also wanted to find the Tian family, who used to be in-laws of the Zhao family.
But in the end, nothing was achieved.
Jiang Anning could only pin the clues on Zhao Jiang.
Otherwise, no one would be left alive until now.
However, Zhao Jiang is indeed lucky.
After eating the poisonous mushrooms, they all started to have hallucinations and saw Zhao Yinlian's skeleton dancing.
As a result, he was fed half a bucket of slop, but he still survived.
Later, Jiang Anning simply used him to test the medicine.
Unexpectedly, during the continuous drug testing, Zhao Jiang's body underwent tremendous changes - he was more resistant than before!
It so happened that Jiang An Ning was interested in the insect-controlling technique demonstrated by Xie Lan, and happened to find a record of the insect-controlling technique in A Niang's notes.
She studied it diligently for some time and achieved some success.
I just happened to use Zhao Jiang to try out the effect.
As a result, this person lived longer.
Zhao Jiang was confused, and after a long while, he finally said in surprise, "When did my mother want to speak to me about the girl from the Tian family?"
"I do not know how?"
He didn't say anything, and Jiang An Ning continued to hit his painful spot with the stick in his hand.
"I really do not know!"
"But my mother did have a close friend in the past, his last name was Tian."
Zhao Jiang couldn't bear the pain and tried desperately to recall: "Oh, yes, yes, yes, that Tian guy was the one who introduced those people to my house and asked my mother to go to your house to propose marriage so that she could marry you home and have you to discuss."
"I occasionally heard my mother say it once or twice. She said that this old lady Tian used to work for a wealthy family. She was very respectable and knew many noble people."
"Where do you work?"
"Then how should I know...Ahhhhh I really don't know."
Zhao Jiang was beaten so hard that he was crying and snotting, and there was not a single spot of good color on his body.
"It seems, it seems... his last name is An?"
"But that family seems to be in trouble too."
"They said they were convicted of something and their entire family was beheaded."
"I, I really don't know!"
Jiang Anning swung the stick until the man was covered in blood, unconscious and passed out, and only then did he stop.
She looked at the man lying on the ground like a dead dog with hatred.
But there was nothing we could do.
She closed the stone door again, left the dry well, returned to the embroidery workshop, and thought carefully about Zhao Jiang's words.
It was Mrs. Tian who introduced those people here.
Working in the home of a lady named An.
The master of the house was convicted and all his men were beheaded overnight.
Perhaps, the old lady Tian that Zhao Jiang mentioned is the one who serves Madam An?
This seems to explain why Zhao Yuanshan had the opportunity to establish relationships with Mrs. An and others.
Maybe it was this Mrs. Tian who introduced him.
The more Jiang Anning thought about it, the more he felt that this suspicion might very well be the truth.
But why did Mrs. Tian do this?
She was puzzled.
I decided to take the opportunity of sending Mid-Autumn Festival gifts to visit Mrs. An in person again.
When Duan Qingshan came back, she thought of sending someone to his house to deliver a visiting card.
Unexpectedly, Song Yubao would come here with Duan Qingshan.
She had no choice but to treat people to tea first.
"I heard that Miss Jiang is willing to purchase wasteland near the villa to build a new house."
Song Yubao went straight to the point.
Jiang Anning smiled and said, "Yes, that's exactly what I meant."
"I heard that you are willing to help me get the price to the lowest, so I thought about discussing it with you carefully before making a decision."
Song Yubao held the teacup and pondered for a moment.
"In fact, it was the county magistrate who suggested that I talk about this matter."
"The people who escaped from Yandu County have been homeless for more than half a year."
"It won't be a big deal if we continue like this."
"If the students in the academy knew about this, they would easily accuse you of the crime, and we would be in a state of panic all the time, but we really have no idea what to do."
I'm afraid it has already been known and criticized?
Jiang Anning thought to herself.
Otherwise, why were they not anxious in the previous six months but suddenly became anxious now?
