Chapter 844: Filial piety leads to strength
"Give me another five hundred."
"Okay, okay, I'll give it to you right away!" The second brother Jiang Hu quickly took out his wallet, counted out five large bills, and quickly handed them to Jiang Ning, fearing that he would not take them.
A bizarre scene appeared before the eyes of everyone in the Jiang family.
Sanniang, her son Jiang Yang, and Yang's wife all had expressions filled with surprise.
What the hell?
"Jiang Hu, weren't you so arrogant just now? You kept saying that you didn't care about Jiang Ning's family, but when Jiang Ning's phone lit up, you immediately surrendered?"
This behavior made Yang's wife very curious. What was in Jiang Ning's mobile phone?
She moved quietly, intending to take the opportunity to take a sneak peek.
Jiang Hu was already like a frightened bird, and quickly moved to block it.
The foreign wife looked regretful.
Yangyang was also confused. He knew very well what kind of person his second brother Jiang Hu was.
My second uncle, Jiang Xintian, used to set up stalls in other places in his early years and had some assets. He has two sons. The younger son, Jiang Bao, runs a tea shop in a coastal city, earning three or four hundred thousand yuan a year. He drives a Mercedes-Benz and is a promising man.
The eldest son, Jiang Hu, is an uneducated and unskillful person. He had fights when he was a student and worked after dropping out of school. Relying on his father's ability, he married a beautiful wife. He then became even more arrogant and hung out with a group of bad friends all day long.
Because he is a jerk and likes to go crazy. He dares to hit people with bricks when they make him angry. He is recognized as a person who is not to be messed with in the countryside.
Jiang Yang originally thought that his cousin Jiang Ning would definitely be bullied by Jiang Hu when he returned to the village. After all, it would be difficult for a scholar to explain himself to a soldier.
Who would dare to mess with Jiang Hu, a recognized savage?
In their whole family, who wouldn’t be scared when Jiang Hu is mentioned?
Jiang Yang remembered clearly that when Jiang Ning was a child, he was often bullied by Jiang Hu.
But what's going on now?
Jiang Hu's already empty wallet became even emptier after he lost five hundred yuan.
He has so much pain in his heart that he can't even express it!
Jiang Hu vaguely remembered that he drove to the county town today to take a female classmate from elementary school home. On the way, he and the female classmate hugged each other and were very happy.
He vaguely remembered that at a traffic light, he impatiently touched the female classmate sitting in the passenger seat. While the female classmate was dealing with him, she said that someone in the car next to her was taking pictures.
At that time, Jiang Hu cursed: "I don't care about their shit!"
Damn it, now the retribution has come!
Logically speaking, Jiang Hutian is a fearless person and wouldn't care at all if he was threatened.
Unfortunately, it was all his wife’s fault. When they first got married a few years ago, his wife was a petite 90-pound girl and he loved her very much. But within a few years, her weight suddenly soared to 170 pounds as if she had been inflated!
I have a wife who has just grown up. She is as strong as a mountain and as brave as the world!
Jiang Hu really didn't dare let the shrewish woman at home know that he was having affairs with other women!
Jiang Ning calmly took the money. Since he was a child, Jiang Hu had bullied him a lot. Since he was ten years younger than Jiang Hu, he had little power to resist, after all, he could not win.
Later, Jiang Ning graduated from university and was able to earn money. He could finally hold his head up in front of Jiang Hu. Unexpectedly, he got lucky and was taken to the south by his brother Jiang Bao to sell seafood, earning three or four hundred thousand a year... He became even more arrogant.
The encounters in life are always so wonderful and unpredictable.
In this life, at this moment.
The once arrogant Brother Hu now showed a begging expression in front of him. Needless to say, Jiang Ning felt a rare sense of relief in his heart.
He was very polite: "Thank you, second brother, you are a good person."
Jiang Hu's smile was uglier than the bitter one, and he responded with a forced smile: "You're welcome, you've been thin since you were a child, eat more good food."
Jiang Ning nodded: "Okay, second brother, when can you take me to buy shoes?"
Jiang Hu's thick eyebrows trembled, and he swallowed his anger and said, "Okay!"
After easing the tension between the brothers, Jiang Ning asked again, "Third Aunt, didn't you do any business today?"
It is the end of the year and the breakfast shop business is booming. After all, businessmen work almost 365 days a year, and after all, one day less work means one day less money earned.
Normally, they should be busy at the breakfast shop on the street.
The third aunt was short and thin. She smiled enthusiastically and said, "Go to your sister-in-law's house to visit relatives at noon. It's not busy at this time. Your third uncle and your younger aunt are helping out in the store."
The foreign wife next to him stared at Jiang Ning in surprise and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Jiang Ning, you have grown so tall!"
Jiang Yang looked at Jiang Ning with envy because his mother was too short, only 165cm tall.
The only consolation is that he is very handsome and a pretty boy, so he is still very popular and was noticed by the foreign wife on the first blind date.
Jiang Yang: "My uncle is only 1.7 meters tall, how come you are so tall?"
Sanniang was unwilling to admit the genetic theory. She shifted the blame: "Dafu's parents weren't tall either, but didn't Dafu still grow to 1.9 meters? In my opinion, Ningning should be taller!"
The foreign wife thought to herself: "What's the big deal about being 1.9 meters tall? He's just a big, stupid guy. The important thing is that he's handsome!"
She found her younger brother Jiang Ning more and more pleasing to the eye.
After a while of greeting, Sanniang saw that time was running out, so she arranged, "Ningning, we won't be home for lunch, I'll ask your uncle to buy some food on the street and bring it home for you to eat!"
Jiang Ning knew clearly that Third Aunt was a stingy person who liked to haggle over small gains and take advantage of others, which was a common problem among many rural women. But she was not a bad person at heart and was quite nice to him.
Jiang Ning glanced at Jiang Hu who was standing uncomfortably beside him, and said, "No need, Sanniang, Brother Hu will treat me to a feast."
Jiang Hu was stunned and cursed inwardly: "Fuck me!"
"Brother Hu, can you give me a definite answer?" Jiang Ning asked.
Jiang Hu was extremely angry: "You are too arrogant!"
The little brother he used to control at will had changed a lot after not seeing him for more than a year, and he even dared to threaten him. Unfortunately, he was unable to resist.
Jiang Hu forced a smile and said in a fake tone: "I must prepare some good food for my brother!"
Jiang Ning said: "Brother Hu is so nice."
……
After bidding farewell to the family of the Third Aunt on the road and refusing Tiger Brother's offer of a ride, Jiang Ning, carrying his schoolbag, headed to Jiangjiazhuang alone.
The rural infrastructure in central Anhui Province is quite good. Jiangjiazhuang is very close to the town, and a cement road has been built to the village.
Jiang Ning was walking in his long-lost hometown, where he had lived for 14 years. On both sides of the cement road were wheat fields covered with a layer of white frost, as if they had been painted with a layer of foundation.
The outline of the village ahead gradually became clear. The low and dilapidated red brick and tile houses were arranged in a staggered manner among the newly built buildings, just like the 27-year-old Jiang Ning in his previous life, who could neither settle down in a big city nor return to his hometown.
It was the end of the year and the entrance to the village was quite lively. Some villagers gathered at the door of the buildings near the cement road. There were also young college students playing badminton in cotton-padded jackets. When they saw Jiang Ning, they all cast their gazes at him.
Jiang Ning stared at the faces that looked almost ten years younger, and suddenly realized: "I'm only 16 years old this year! I'm really young!"
Inexplicably, he felt much better.
Jiang Ning smiled and walked more briskly. It was a very strange feeling, as if every step he took was at the intersection of the past and the future.
He walked past the entrance of the village, past the chicken farm, and finally past a tiled house with a peach blossom forest behind it. A big black dog and two little yellow dogs suddenly jumped out, chased him and bit him, baring their teeth, which was extremely terrifying.
Jiang Ning hated this family since he was a child, and he hated the dog they raised even more. When he was a child, he was always scared every time he went to school.
"Good dog!" Jiang Ning kicked the big black dog with a bang, and kicked it into the air.
The big black dog fell to the ground, screaming in pain.
The two little yellow dogs screamed in their throats and were so scared that they dared not breathe.
"I was scared by you when I was a kid. Now that I'm grown up, you're still scaring me with your son of a bitch?" Jiang Ning moved and kicked the two little yellow dogs away one by one.
Looking at the three shivering dogs, Jiang Ning kicked them twice before leaving leisurely.
He turned east, and Jiang Ning was more familiar with the residents here. Most of them were descendants of his grandfather's brothers.
Someone at the door looked at Jiang Ning but couldn't recognize who he was.
Finally, he stopped at the door of his house.
In front of him was a wooden door with a rusty door knocker. Through the gap in the door, he could see the scene in the yard. However, it was different from the weeds that Jiang Ning had imagined. Instead, it was very clean.
"Are you, Ningning?" a peaceful voice sounded.
Jiang Ning turned around and looked at the owner of the voice, an old lady in her fifties, with kind eyes and eyebrows, and she looked like a very good person.
"Second grandma." Jiang Ning replied.
As soon as these words came out, the old woman said in surprise: "It's really Ningning!"
She quickly turned around and shouted, "Xiao Gui, come out quickly!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a man who was less than 30 years old ran out from behind. He was thin, had a dark complexion, and looked very honest.
"It's really Ningning!" Xiao Guizi's face was full of joy.
He came up and patted Jiang Ning on the shoulder: "Good boy, you have grown so tall!"
Second grandmother smiled and said: "He is so much more handsome!"
Uncle Xiaogui and Jiang Ning's family are neighbors. When Jiang Ning lived at home, he was taken care of by Uncle Xiaogui's family. They often invited him to dinner. Later, when Jiang Ning left the village, he even gave his keys to Xiaogui's family for safekeeping.
Now that Jiang Ning's parents have become rich, they arranged for Xiao Guizi to work as a security guard in Changqingye to repay their past kindness.
Uncle Xiaogui opened the door with the key, and the second grandmother said beside him: "We know you will be back for the New Year, so we have cleaned up the house for you and ventilated it. I also have two new quilts at home. I will bring them to you later!"
Jiang Ning knew that they had good intentions. His second grandmother also told him that he could have dinner at her house in the future. Jiang Ning declined the offer on the grounds that he had to go to his second uncle's house for lunch.
After the excitement, Second Grandma and Xiao Guizi didn't stay long and gave him some private space.
Jiang Ning put his backpack on the chair and hadn't taken a rest for a while when suddenly, he heard a commotion at the door.
Before anyone entered the house, a voice came: "Brother Ning, Brother Ning, I heard that your family made a lot of money!"
When Jiang Ning walked out of the room, he saw a boy in a dirty cotton jacket, about thirteen or fourteen years old, with a long face and an untamed fierceness in his eyes.
This person is Jiang He, and the relationship between them is a bit complicated. He is the youngest son of the eldest son of the third uncle, but he is the youngest son who is not recognized on the surface.
During the birth control period, the third uncle's son had two daughters. Logically, if he had another son, he would be fined. So his family came up with a trick. They pretended that the son was not their biological son and sent him to a relative's home to be raised. Then, a few years later, they "adopted" him back.
Everything seemed beautiful, but it was a pity that his son was raised in a wrong way. Jiang He also didn't know his own life experience, so he became more and more uneducated.
Of course, letting things run wild is never the only excuse for becoming bad. Bad people are bad people. In later lives, Jiang He and others ruined a girl. He was still in prison until Jiang Ning was reborn.
This kind of child who still has his wild nature is actually very difficult to deal with, because most people simply cannot handle a half-grown child.
Jiang Ning said calmly: "Yes, I have become rich, what's the matter?"
When Jiang He saw Jiang Ning's current appearance, he was obviously stunned, but he didn't care about that now. He looked around the room and found Jiang Ning's backpack. Without saying a word, he walked over to see what was in the bag.
Jiang Ning took the backpack in his hand before him.
Jiang He didn't get anything, so he showed his signature grin and said, "Brother Pao and his friends are back from work, I have to get some money and go play billiards with them on the street!"
Hearing Brother Pao's name, Jiang Ning frowned.
Most of the people of Jiangjiazhuang and Jiang Ning's age have stopped studying. For example, the so-called "Pao Ge" used to be a gangster in Waniao Middle School.
Although they are from the same village, they are extremely immoral. Some children are born bad and enjoy bullying others.
Once, when Jiang Ning was playing table tennis at school, a group of people surrounded him and he was almost beaten. Later he found out that Paozi had threatened them and told them his name.
Jiang Ning later went to settle accounts with Paozi, but he responded calmly: "It's what I said. Aren't we from the same village?"
Jiang Ning was really famous at that time, but Paozi had three or four friends around him, while Jiang Ning was alone.
As for him asking his cousin to come forward for revenge? It would be difficult to deal with a village where both parents might come forward and a bigger conflict would break out. Jiang Ning could only suffer in silence.
Later, Paozi dropped out of school and worked. After he made some money, he came back home during the Chinese New Year in great glory. Jiang Ning was still just an ordinary high school student and could only watch him show off.
As for many years later, after graduating from college, Paozi had already married and had children. When they met, everyone was in a friendly mood and put on fake smiles. The past conflicts could never be brought back.
Jiang Ning said: "Don't associate with Paozi and his gang, they are not good people."
Jiang He laughed when he heard that. He rolled his eyes and said deliberately, "Brother Ning, I don't know who the good guy is, but Brother Pao invited me to go online some time ago. That's called being righteous!"
"On the contrary, you, your family is rich now, so you have to show some respect. After all, you are relatives!" Jiang He's eyes were rolling around, full of cunning.
This made Jiang Ning look at him more. 'Everyone in the village says this kid is stupid? But this way of provoking him is not stupid at all.'
"Interesting." Jiang Ning stared at him and said bluntly, "You borrowed 20 yuan from me two years ago, and I gave it to you. Later, you asked me to borrow 50 yuan, and I gave it to you again."
"If you want to borrow money from me again, you can, but you have to pay me back the 70 yuan first."
Jiang He kept smiling: "Brother, give it to me first, otherwise if Brother Pao and the others find out, won't they laugh at you?"
Jiang Ning took out the five hundred-dollar bills given by Brother Hu from his pocket and counted them quietly with his fingers as if no one was around.
Jiang He's eyes widened. Five hundred yuan! It was enough for him to live a carefree life for several days!
He quickly moved closer and reached out to grab the money, but Jiang Ning raised his hand and he grabbed nothing.
Jiang He was anxious: "Brother Ning, you know my reputation, I will definitely pay it back this time!"
He swore to the heavens, laughing, "If I don't pay back the money I borrowed this time, my whole family will die! My whole family will die!"
Jiang Ning asked back: "The whole family died?"
"Yes, yes!" Jiang He swore fearlessly, because he never took Jiang Ning seriously. He was sure that Jiang Ning would not dare to do anything to him.
Because it has always been like this before.
Besides, who really thought that Jiang He was just a nobody? Although he was a few years younger than Jiang Ning, he was confident that he could knock Jiang Ning down.
He screamed exaggeratedly: "Really, my whole family will die!"
Jiang Ning's face suddenly darkened, staring at Jiang He: "When you say the whole family died, does that include my family?"
Jiang He didn't know why, but his heart trembled inexplicably. Then, the stereotype of the past made him return to his slick appearance, and he joked: "Hey, it depends on whether you want to lend me the money!"
Jiang Ning clicked on his phone to end the recording.
He slowly took out a Seven Wolves leather belt, swung it high, and with a whistling sound, under Jiang He's shocked gaze, he hit him in the neck with the belt and knocked him over with a "bang".
Jiang He was hit and felt as if thousands of thorns were piercing his body. The pain made his playful smile disappear completely and he suddenly screamed.
Jiang Ning held the belt with an impatient expression: "If I don't beat you today, you can call me grandpa!"
