Jiang Yuexiu looked at Jiang Xinman and a barely noticeable smile appeared on his face.
Jiang Xinman stood up and smiled indifferently, "If you want to retreat, then retreat! Fame? Do I, the Little Overlord of the East City, care about reputation? You haven't even given me a tael of silver yet. Dad, why are you worrying so much? Xinci doesn't even like him. You should get rid of this poor scholar as soon as possible."
Jiang Xinman turned her body sideways and looked at him sideways. "I don't believe that Xinci is so famous. Last year, she was even invited by the daughter of the Minister of Law in the capital. Lee Zixiu, tsk, you don't know your own worth after getting an official position..."
" No face, no figure, no talent, sigh... What else can I do other than waste rations! "
Jiang Xinci, on the other hand, smiled and did not say a word. She did not expect that after just one night, she would be able to think things through clearly. The Little Overlord was still the same Little Overlord. He was not afraid of anything. Her sister had returned.
Lee Zixiu originally thought that Jiang Xinman would still refuse to agree no matter what like yesterday, but he glared at Jiang Xinman: "Miss Jiang's words are too much!"
"I might not even get a tael of silver even if I sell you to a human trafficker." Jiang Xinman curled her lips. Too much? Next, I'll let you see what it means to be too much!
"Even standing here, I can't stand the sour smell of you. When I was down and out, I gave you a generous amount of silver, but... it's the first time I've ever seen someone come here to swindle a marriage for silver."
Jiang Xinman still felt that the other party's face wasn't ugly enough, so she added fuel to the fire: "Everyone knows the whole story, but I'm just putting on a show with you to increase the topic of conversation after lunch and tea..."
Lee Zixiu was so angry that he was trembling, and his face was pale. Since when could that bronze stench trample on scholars! He couldn't even say a complete sentence while pointing at Jiang Xinman, "You, you guys... This is too much!"
That's all he knew, he was going too far... Jiang Xinman scratched her face. Although she felt that she still owed something, the other party was obviously furious. Perhaps he had just trampled on the so-called soul of a scholar?
Seeing that Lee Zixiu was angry, Jiang Yuexiu pretended to be angry and softly criticized Jiang Xinman: "Xinman, what do you say to a scholar?"
The young man who was leisurely sitting outside drinking tea walked into the arena and said to Jiang Yuexiu, "It doesn't matter. Let her say that the Little Overlord should be like this."
Jiang Yuexiu hurriedly bowed, "I have made a fool of myself in front of the prince. This..."
The prince waved his hand indifferently: "It's fine, I just came to take a look along the way."
The prince turned to Jiang Xinman and said softly, "Do what you want to do. All of this is my idea. The Jiang family doesn't need to be controlled by others."
Jiang Xinman pulled the marriage contract from Lee Zixiu's hands and tore it into pieces in front of everyone. Then, she took out a marriage annulment certificate from her bosom and opened it. The bright words on it were clearly seen by everyone.
"Jiang Xinman is tired of playing with Lee Zixiu. She doesn't want a dog that lives off a woman."
With a look, the servant behind him went forward to control Lee Zixiu, and made a bet on the spot. In the end...
Jiang Xinman raised Lee Zixiu's angry face, raised her hand and gave him a loud slap. The strength of the slap caused the servant's face to tremble.
Jiang Xinman looked down at Lee Zixiu and said coldly, "I'm tired of you. You can scram now..."
The prince even ridiculed Lee Zixiu: "Do you think you can bully my people as you please? Tell that dog official that if he dares to touch the Jiang family, don't blame me for not giving face to the past!"
Lee Zixiu was thrown out of the Jiang family gate, along with the black and white words that had been betted. He never would have thought that the person who had begged him yesterday would be able to beat him up mercilessly today. He never would have thought that the Jiang family would be able to climb up the ranks of the imperial family.
"Master of Jiang family, I still have some matters to attend to, so I won't disturb you guys from dealing with your family matters." The Prince took the initiative to leave when Lee Zixiu was thrown out.
Looking at Jiang Xinman's smooth and smooth face-slapping movements, everyone was stunned. Lotus Seed stood in the corner, not daring to make a sound. In the end, he still hit her...
After the prince left, Jiang Xinman pretended to be handsome and lifted her hair. When she turned around, she saw the stunned crowd. She was very satisfied with this effect.
However, before long, Jiang Yuexiu walked in front of Jiang Xinman with a sullen face and said nothing.
Jiang Xinman was shocked. When her father got angry, she couldn't bear it. She was a little afraid.
When Jiang Yuexiu raised his hand, Jiang Xinman was so scared that she shrank her neck and closed her eyes. What awaited her was not a slap, but a pat on the head.
"I don't blame you, and you're not wrong either. It's my fault. I only wanted to find someone who was good to you, but I didn't expect..."
What Jiang Xinman heard was the unbearable pain in his heart, filled with exhaustion. His dying tone did not match his still handsome appearance.
Jiang Xinman felt sad. Her nose was sour, and her eyes were misty. She buried her head in Jiang Yuexiu's arms and started to sob. Her father had never blamed her, no matter what happened.
Jiang Yuexiu could only smile bitterly.
Jiang Xinman cried, "I'm not getting married. I want to live and wait for death to flirt with handsome men..."
Jiang Yuexiu's tears disappeared without a trace in an instant. There was nothing he could do about Jiang Xinman, who was crying. Alright, as long as he was still around, it wouldn't be difficult to raise her until she was old...
Jiang Xinman said to Jiang Yuexiu with tears in her eyes, "Can you go back now? I'm still waiting to read the script!"
Everyone present thought that Jiang Xinman would be able to proactively improve after experiencing the Lee Zixiu incident, and that from then on, the Female Red Poetry would become their daily homework. They discovered that it was a waste of emotion, but if Jiang Xinman really did not let go of the Female Female Poetry, they would really suspect that Jiang Xinman's brain had been kicked.
Jiang Xinci waited until Jiang Yuexiu left with his wives before calling out to Jiang Xinman. Only the two of them met in the backyard.
Jiang Xinci stuffed a heavy bag into her hands.
Jiang Xinman knew what it was the moment she got it. It was a big bag of silver, and there was a lot of it. Even Jiang Xinci didn't have that much monthly silver.
"Sis, where did this come from? Don't worry, I won't report you!" Jiang Xinman said with a smirk.
Jiang Xinci snappily tapped Jiang Xinman's forehead: "A gift for growing up, also make up for this year's birthday. No gossip!"
Jiang Xinman blinked her eyes, "Is that so...? Sis, what do you think of Lee Zixiu?"
"It's just a clown... What? You...!" Jiang Xinci stared at Jiang Xinman with a face full of disapproval. If she was still thinking about that little person in her heart, she would have knocked Jiang Xinman awake today no matter what.
Jiang Xinman scratched her head and hesitantly asked, "Then, didn't we cut off the road to the Magic Pen Pavilion..."
Jiang Xinci covered her mouth and sneered: "Just now, I said that someone invited me last year, why did I start to worry after saying that? Besides, that prince is just a decoration."
Jiang Xinci could not bear to see Jiang Xinman's childish appearance of admitting her mistake. She was afraid that if she did not say anything, she would laugh until she collapsed here. "Actually, before you came, it had already been resolved. It was only when I heard that you were coming that I did not say the words to chase you away."
Jiang Xinman was stunned for a moment. "That is to say... I came here to make my attitude clear?"
Seeing Jiang Xinci nod her head in relief, Jiang Xinman was about to cry in her heart.
"So you guys are looking at me as a joke!"
Jiang Xinci hurriedly waved her hand: "No, no, it's just that I didn't expect you to be like before. After meeting Lee Zixiu, you have slowly become so much that we don't even know each other anymore. Even if there was no annulment of the engagement, I would definitely not let you marry."
Jiang Xinman pouted. "Fortunately, only you and the three mothers came. Otherwise, how would I be able to face my brothers at home..."
Jiang Xinci touched Jiang Xinman's head and said softly, "Second sister is already married, so naturally, Second Mother won't say anything. Her mind is all on her younger brother. We are biological sisters, and mother only has us. I'm the eldest, a girl. Although you are doted on by father, you are still a girl... "
"Our mother can't be compared to those aunties. They had a boy, and they gave birth to your brother and sister."
"I'm already twenty years old, and I'm almost past the age of marriage. You're still young."
How could Jiang Xinman not understand when she heard this? She grabbed Jiang Xinci's hand and asked anxiously, "Where are you going?"
