Chapter 225
Fragrance Thief (2)
She was now a little adult, and she had also learned martial arts for a long time. She was different from back then.
Her Granduncle was so old and had no strength, while she had now turned evil. There was no more need to respect the old and love the young, she could definitely beat him up!
But this guy was still so bad! He didn’t have any bad ideas towards her, but towards Fragrance instead!
Simply unforgivable!
Jiang Xiumei glared at Jiang Xiaoman and said coldly, “Vulgar! You are not allowed to copy me.”
Putting your hands on your waist, so unsightly.
“Oh.” Jiang Xiaoman replied unhappily.
Adults were bad. They knew that they were being vulgar and unsightly, but they were allowed to be that way, while children weren’t allowed to.
Jiang Xiaoman was unhappy.
She couldn’t put her hands on her waist and thought that she didn’t look cool anymore, so she could only sit next to Grandma in anger, watching her scolding him silly.
Jiang Xiumei raged like a tornado and didn’t give him any face, driving people away as she opened her mouth.
It was a coincidence that Jiang Xing brought the children for the autumn trip today. Jiang Xiumei didn’t want to scare the children, or it would’ve caused a bigger mess.
It wasn’t that she didn’t want to show her family’s ugly side, she was just afraid that the children would learn bad things if they saw something bad.
Blood drained from Hong Xingguo’s face, he fell to his knees and begged her, “Sister, my blood sister, are you so cruel to just look at me being alone and helpless? I really don’t have any other choice than to come to you! You’ve clothed me and brought me food before, we are blood relatives!”
Jiang Xiumei was silent for a while, her face a little moved.
She remained silent, and Hong Xingguo became more encouraged. He walked closer while kneeling, hugging her legs as he wept and begged for mercy.
The Jiang family now had a big business, as long as he could soften her heart, as long as some soup slipped down between her fingers, it would be enough for him to live without any worries!
Hong Xingguo’s heart grew hotter, and he was about to say a few more soft words to completely dispel Jiang Xiumei’s defense.
But before he could think of what to say, he received a kick on his chest.
Jiang Xiumei was still Jiang Xiumei, very fierce when fighting.
Hong Xingguo laid on the ground clutching his chest. His face turned silly as he failed to understand what was happening.
It obviously looked fine just now… why did everything suddenly turn upside down?
Jiang Xiumei’s voice rang in his ears, “Let me tell you, Hong Xingguo. The fact that I’m still letting you be here right now is all because we have the same parents. Do you remember when I was ten years old, you wanted to sell me off to be the village head Lai Zitou’s child bride, exchanging me for a mule so it could carry you? What sister am I? I’m not even worth as much as a mule!”
“This, wasn’t this when I was young and ignorant?”
“Ptoeey! When I was 16 years old, our parents wanted to sell me for your dowry! Fortunately, I ran away quickly. The whole family was greedy and lazy, wanting to eat well but lazy to work. All the brothers and sisters at home only had one pair of trousers good enough to wear outside when meeting people, and we had to take turns wearing them! They wanted to sell me to get the dowry to find you a wife!”
Jiang Xiumei hated it more the more she thought about it.
What kind of miserable life had she lived there!?
“Get out of here! Go play snake for me!” Jiang Xiumei finished cursing but was still angry, so she told the security guard to call the police.
“Call the police to take him away. Stealing pigs is stealing. You still have a criminal record, this is enough for you to be locked in prison for a few years!”
Hearing these words, Hong Xingguo’s whole body shook and he woke up. He was so horrified he didn’t dare to say or ask anything else, and he ran away.
Jiang Xiumei was so cruel and didn’t care about him!
It took Hong Xingguo a long time to walk far away from the farm.
He sat on the roadside, hungry and out of food.
After thinking about it, it seemed that he could only beg.
Otherwise, he would have no travel expenses to go home. He was far from his home in the mountains.
But after thinking about it, he felt unreconciled.
He didn’t pay attention to it and sat cross-legged on the ground. After thinking about it, in the end, he decided to do one more thing.
He went into prison because of Jiang Xiaoman.
He wanted to finish what he couldn’t before he went in.
He memorized the number on the missing person poster for six years, and he was now familiar with it.
That useless son of his was too unfilial. He was afraid that if he found out about it, he would take the reward and not care about his old man, so he hid it in his heart.
Now that he thought about it, he remembered everything.
He decided to call the number on the missing person poster.
At that time, the missing person poster also posted a picture of the child’s mother when she was a child as a reference. Now after a few years had passed, Jiang Xiaoman had grown up into a big girl, and her face became more and more similar to the mother’s face on the missing person poster.
He couldn’t be wrong!
Hong Xingguo immediately stood up and walked to a place where there was a public phone.
He suppressed his excitement and dialed the number.
“Hello, hello?” Liang Yuanqing received a call from an unknown number in the hospital.
He answered a few times, but the other party didn’t say anything.
Just as he was about to hang up, an old murky voice rang, “You—have you lost a child in your family?”
Liang Yuanqing’s complexion immediately changed.
