Chapter 28 - Marriage Contract

A scream came from the distance, "Don't drink!" When I heard the shout, I stopped the teacup at my mouth. I didn't get any tea. I looked over and saw a woman riding toward the teahouse.

The waiter looked at the other customers drinking tea. The seven or eight tea drinkers drew their knives from under the table and threw themselves at us. Those seven, eight people weren't our match at all. They were knocked down by us and rolled around painfully on the ground.

I took the waiter and asked, "Who ordered you to harm us? "Speak!" That waiter gritted his teeth and died on the spot. I shouted, "Quick! Prevent others from taking poison and committing suicide! " The moment I said this, the others took poison and killed themselves as well.

Chen Zhi said: "So powerful! He had hidden the poison in his mouth beforehand. If he failed, he would take the poison and commit suicide! It seemed like they were specially trained to be killers! It seems that the person who ordered them must not be simple! " I sighed. "Who trained such a death warrior?" Just who was it that wanted to harm us? "

The screaming woman was already at our side. I immediately thanked her. "Thank you, young lady, for saving my life!" Zhang Tie shouted: "It's you! Jiang Yan! " The lady that came was Jiang Yan. Jiang Yan said: "It's me, my lord. Don't thank me! I should say that the person who is still apologizing is … " Jiang Yan did not continue, as though she had something hard to say. Although we are confused by Jiang Yan's words, she is a girl after all, so it isn't good for us to question her further.

I looked straight at Yan and asked, "I wonder why Miss Jiang is here alone?" Jiang Yan stammered, "I … I... I was just walking around here! " I was even more surprised when I heard this. How could a girl walk out alone to such a sparsely populated place and find out that there was something wrong with this teahouse? But I can't ask.

And I said, "That's right! It's so dangerous outside, it's best for Miss to return home early! " Jiang Yan asked: "Then do you also want to go back?" I said, "Yeah!" I looked at Jiang Yan and continued, "Then we will travel together! Do you need us to send you off? " Jiang Yan beamed. "Alright!"

Hearing that, Fei Fei looked at Jiang Yan unhappily, and then looked at me, and couldn't help but to let out a long sigh. When Chen Zhi saw Fei Fei's action, Chen Zhi's expression was also extremely unnatural …

Jiang Ren, who was hiding in a corner, looked at all these with anger: "Really! It was my own daughter who ruined my plans! "Damn it!" The black-clothed man who appeared before in longan radix sneered: "Officer Jiang, looks like your daughter has fallen for him!" Jiang Ren sighed and said, "My family is really unlucky! Master, don't laugh at me! "

The man in black asked, "Has Old Master Jiang found something important?" Jiang Ren shook his head, he did not know what the black clothed man meant. The man in black smiled sinisterly, "What kind of damage do you think is the most fatal and heaviest thing in this world?" Jiang Ren found it even more strange, and asked: "What do you mean by that?"

The black clothed man did not answer Jiang Ren's question but continued, "The harm done by the person you love the most is the most fatal injury in this world!" Jiang Ren said with a face full of dissatisfaction: "What do you mean? Are you mocking me? "Humph!" Jiang Ren maintained a straight face and did not say a word. The man in black said with a dark tone, "I definitely didn't mean that. I mean, two best friends, if you say you love a woman at the same time, then wouldn't you be throwing a tantrum? "Isn't it?" The black clothed man pointed at Chen Zhi, causing Jiang Ren to suddenly understand: "I understand! I know what to do! Haha! Master's move is really good! No matter who it was, it would be difficult for them to withstand such a heavy blow from their best trusted brother who had suddenly turned against them! And he might even be killed by his own brother! Haha! Fan Li, you're dead this time! " The man in black was laughing sinisterly …

On the way there, Jiang Yan asked, "Li, do you still remember the times when we played together?" I scratched my head and bitterly smiled. "Hehe, all I did was play games like playing hide and seek with little kids! "Haha!"

Both of Jiang Yan's hands rested on Sang Su's chest, her eyes shot out a beautiful ray of light, as if she had seen the beautiful times of the past, and sweetly said: "It's not just that! We even played some games together, and we even pinched people … " When Jiang Yan said till here, she blushed and lowered her head. Thinking about it like this, Yan could not help but bring back my memories. When I was young, even though my father and Jiang Ren were not on good terms, for their own interests, even if their hearts were not on good terms, on the surface, they would sometimes have no choice but to be on good terms! So sometimes, Father would bring me to Jiang Ren Palace to play.

I, Yan, Jiang Hui, and Jiang Jing will play with the Muddler. Yan's hands were the most coincidental. The clay figurine that she kneaded looked very lifelike and beautiful. When Yan pinched a "mother", I also pinched a "father." and Jiang Jing, on the other hand, were pinch the stomach of the high officials, but to be honest, Jiang Hui and Jiang Jing's pinch skill was too low, it was extremely unsightly, if they did not explain that it was to pinch the high officials, who would know!

I remembered and said, "Yes! At that time, when I saw that the clay figure I pinched was' father 'and you pinched' mother ', I would joke that the mud figure' mother 'that you pinched and the mud figure' father 'that I pinched would become a family! Haha! At that time, Big Brother Jiang Jing even said, "Okay!" Great! When you two grow up, you two will be a family, having children! Big brother Jiang Hui immediately replied. There's no chicken in this clay figure, how can he give birth to a child?! As soon as I heard that, I added a chicken to the clay man I was kneading. Then you blush, turn away, and say, 'Shame to death! How shameful! He was naked without any clothes on. Being an adult without any clothes was the most embarrassing thing to do! Besides, he might have just been spanked when he did something bad with his bare ass! Not with your family! "I'm not going with your family!" Haha! The old days of childhood were so interesting! "Hahaha!"

I laughed when I thought about the happy memories of my childhood, when it was so carefree, even when the parents of both sides were fighting for their own interests, and we kids didn't feel the slightest bit of adult hatred, just happy to play around with nothing. Oh! When a person grows up, can it be that he's really not as good as he was when he was young? I couldn't help but sigh in my heart.

When I said these words, Big Brother and the others couldn't help but cover their mouths and laugh as Jiang Yan and I looked at each other. But Fei Fei's expression was extremely ugly as she muttered: "Hmph! What 'father' and 'mother'!? Why are you still giving birth to a child! "Humph!"

Jiang Yan's face was flushed red, the roots of her jade neck were completely red. Yan could only lower her head, smiling as she continuously nodded her head, she had endless memories of the interesting things that I had told her when she was a child.

Yan stared at me with her beautiful starry eyes and asked, "Li, do you remember what Uncle and Father happily said when they heard our conversation?" She covered her face, but her eyes were still on me. At that time, when my father and Jiang Ren heard what we said, they were amused and laughed heartily.

The two elders who were already drunk joked that Yan and I would get married when we grew up, so they made an engagement based on alcohol. Sigh! However, at that time, my dad really drank too much, and it was a drunken joke. After returning home, even dad felt regret! Even though Jiang Ren had said those words, he didn't have any intentions of keeping his promise! Sigh! Both sides had no intention of doing so, so the marriage contract naturally shouldn't count! I can't say it! Why not play the fool and pretend that you can't remember anything! Good! Do it!

I made up my mind and said, "Oh! What is it? I don't think so! I only remember that my father and uncle Jiang were drunk! It seems like nothing happened! "

After Jiang Yan heard what I said, she seemed very nervous. Her watery eyes stared at me fixedly, and her eyes revealed a look of anxiety and longing. She said anxiously: "Li, you really can't remember!" I touched the back of my head and said, "Haha! That's all I can think of! "Haha!" "Sigh!" Jiang Yan couldn't help but sigh inwardly. His eyes were filled with disappointment as she looked at me with deep resentment … "Young mistress..." Yu'er, Yan's maid, looked at Yan and then at me with a grumbling look in her eyes...

Yan thought, "Since you don't remember? When you heard that Daddy and Uncle had arranged our marriage, you clapped your hands and said, "Okay!" Great! "In the future, I want to marry Yan Yan as my wife!" "Could it be that you really can't remember anything at all?" Yan's eyes were filled with bitterness, disappointment, resentment, and longing as she looked at me, hoping that I would really be able to think of something. When I saw the look in Yan's eyes, I was startled. I hastily turned my head away and pretended to chat and laugh with Big Bro and the rest.

Seeing me like this, Yan could not help but sigh in her heart, thinking: "When I overheard that my father wanted to oppose him, and was afraid of creating trouble, Yu'er and I had been waiting here for a few days already. When I found out that they had arrived at the teahouse and was about to drink that cup of tea with the drug, I was extremely worried! I stepped forward to stop myself from drinking the cup of tea, so when my father found out, he would definitely blame me! I did not hesitate to go against my father's wishes, since I can't remember our childhood! Do you really feel nothing for me? Was all I had done in vain? Sigh!

On the other hand, when Fei Fei heard Yan and me talking, she kept a straight face and was very unhappy. Chen Zhi also stared at Fei Fei without saying a word. I didn't dare to get close to Yu Yan intentionally, and she felt extremely helpless towards my fleeting state. With these thoughts in our minds, we returned to Yu Lin County …

When Jiang Yan returned to the Jiang Residence, Jiang Ren asked Jiang Yan: "Where have you been these past few days?" Jiang Yan's eyes flickered, she did not dare look straight into Jiang Ren's eyes, and ignored him: "I didn't go anywhere!" Jiang Ren said angrily: "I'm not going anywhere! Then why haven't I seen you in the manor? "Ahhh!" Jiang Ren stared at Yan with a questioning look and continued, "Did you know? You are just a girl and yet you are running around everywhere! What kind of manners do you have?!] If people knew about this, would you still be able to marry out? You have tarnished the reputation of my Jiang family! And you've ruined my good fortune! "You are a glutton!" Jiang Yan cried, "But father, you can't do such a thing! Why do you have to be so mean! " Jiang Ren said angrily: "I advise you to keep your distance from him! "Did you hear that?" Jiang Yan cried: "Father! "You've made a decision for your daughter and his …" Jiang Ren knew what he wanted to say, and Jiang Ren said bitterly: "Hmph! At that time, Father spoke falsely when she was drunk! "Why do you have to take it seriously!"

With tears in her eyes, Yan said, "Father, how can you go back on your word?" After Jiang Ren heard this, he roared loudly, "Yan'er, don't say anymore! In short, you have to listen to Father's words, and keep your distance from Fan Li! " Jiang Ren angrily left after throwing those words to her. Yan looked at the figure of her parents disappearing into the distance and cried bitterly …
