Chapter 305 Something bad happened
Jiang Youzhen also kept calling aunt, auntie, grandpa and grandma along the way and was very polite.
"Oh my! The Jiang family is really promising. How amazing is Xiao Lang? He passed the examination and became a scholar at such a young age. He has a bright future ahead of him!"
"That's right! Smoke is coming out of the Jiang family's ancestral tomb. We can't envy them. Look at their abilities. Not only are they good at studying, but they can also make money. They donated a school to the clan and also donated land to the clan."
Before Jiang Youzhen walked far, he heard the sound of people talking behind him.
Those people's tone was full of envy, and they praised Jiang Youzhen to the utmost.
"I don't know what kind of business the Jiang family is doing now, but they are making so much money."
"Didn't I say that Daya from the Jiang family opened embroidery shops in the town and the county? I went to the embroidery shop the other day, and it was really doing a booming business. It was crowded with people, and many people from other places came to buy things. They made a lot of money! Those good materials are very expensive."
"That's Daya and Erya. They are married girls, and water spilled. How can they help the family? I used to think that they were rich and honest, but I didn't expect that he has made a fortune and is still hiding it! We are all from the same village, but I haven't seen him help us."
The tone was sour, as if he had drunk a jar of aged vinegar.
Everyone laughed at him, "Isn't it that a rich family just has more land? He is such an honest man."
"Fugui is honest, but his son is not!"
"You guys! The Jiang family's clan school will only benefit our village. Didn't the Jiang clan leader say before that if any family in the village wants to send a child to school, the tuition will be much lower than other places. We should also tighten our belts, save money, and support a scholar for our family."
"You are so beautiful! The brothers Jiang Haiqing and Jiang Hailin from the Jiang family have also studied for many years, why didn't they win? Do you think scholars are cabbages?"
Jiang Youzhen didn't care when he heard the discussions. His family's affairs could be talked about in the village for several days.
"The land is not far from your home, very close." The patriarch pointed ahead with a smile on his face.
Jiang Youzhen saw that the government officials were taking measurements and went to meet them.
The land is very large, more than enough to build a large yard.
Jiang Youzhen was just watching casually, but in fact, the clan leader was the one who made the decisions and he personally did the land selection and measurement.
"Xiaolang, something bad has happened." Suddenly Aunt Ya came running over and shouted.
Jiang Youzhen saw her running out of breath, and suddenly his heart skipped a beat. Could something have happened to her family? She had just arrived home, what could have happened?
"The kid from the old Fang family at the village entrance just now said that he seemed to see Liu Ya being covered with her mouth and put into a carriage. He didn't know where she was taken, but he wasn't sure if he was mistaken. You should go to the old house and take a look!" Aunt Ya said anxiously, panting.
"What? When did it happen? Did you see which direction it went?" Jiang Youzhen asked anxiously.
Aunt Ya shook her head. "I don't know! It's been more than half an hour. The boy was playing in the mud at the time. He only said he saw someone who looked like Liu Ya. The boy was only six years old and not very smart."
"Has it been so long?" Jiang Youzhen ran away upon hearing that.
"Oh! Wait for me!" Patriarch Jiang had a feeling that something strange had happened in the Jiang family's old house again.
"Slow down, I'll help you over." Aunt Ya immediately stepped forward to support her.
Jiang Youzhen ran quickly to the old house. He first looked around and saw that the yard was very quiet, as if nothing had happened.
However, this made her a little frightened.
She walked quickly into the Jiang family's old house and ran into her aunt head-on.
Ever since Jiang Haiqing took Zhou as his concubine, Xiao Chen rarely came back to the village. And every time he ran into her, it was almost always bad news.
Jiang Youzhen frowned, "Where's Liuya?"
When Xiao Chen saw Jiang Youzhen, she was stunned for a moment, then sneered, "Jiang Youzhen, don't think that you can be so arrogant just because you passed the exam. You are no longer a member of my Jiang family, so why are you still here? You are trespassing."
"I'm asking you about Liu Ya?" Jiang Youzhen was too lazy to play along at this time and asked directly.
"How should I know? Maybe he went out to play?" Little Chen's eyes suddenly dodged.
Seeing this, Jiang Youzhen had a stronger bad feeling in her heart. She immediately pushed Xiao Chen away and ran to the kitchen.
She knew exactly where the work was done. Liu Ya was usually so busy that she had no time to rest. How could she have the time to go out and play?
"Jiang Youzhen, what are you doing? You just took advantage of the fact that no one is home and started stealing! This is not your home, what right do you have to enter?"
After checking everywhere, there was no sign of Liu Ya. Jiang Youzhen's anger was on the verge of exploding.
"Where are the people?" Jiang Youzhen turned around and went back to the yard. Even the old man and the old lady were not there at this moment. Little Chen was the only one at home in the whole yard.
"Who are you? What for? Are you looking for the old man and the old lady? They are out for a banquet."
"I'm asking you about Liu Ya? Don't avoid the subject." Jiang Youzhen had a cold face and his aura was fully open at this moment, which made Xiao Chen feel inexplicably pressured.
"How should I know? Didn't I tell you just now? He must have gone out to play, right?"
"Don't come on! Are you going to tell me?"
At this time, Aunt Ya also hurried over. When she saw Jiang Youzhen questioning Xiao Chen, she hurried forward to help.
"Where did you take Liuya?"
"I already said I was going out to play, don't you want to go look for me in the village?" Little Chen bit her butt.
Jiang Youzhen pulled out a soft sword from his waist without saying a word.
Xiao Chen only felt a flash of cold light before her eyes, and then a wooden stake as thick as a copper basin next to her was instantly split into two halves, and she gasped immediately.
Aunt Ya was also stunned, looking at the soft sword in Jiang Youzhen's hand with a look of astonishment.
Jiang Youzhen raised the soft sword and pointed it at Xiao Chen.
"You! What are you going to do!" Little Chen was almost frightened to death. She had seen Jiang Youzhen go crazy before, and he was even capable of killing her.
"Speak!" Jiang Youzhen took a step closer, and the snow-white and cold sword blade looked very sharp.
"The marriage proposal has been made. Today, the fourth brother and his friends will meet Liu Ya."
Does the woman need to go out to see the man? This is a rare case, and usually the man comes to the man's house.
"Where did you go?" Jiang Youzhen felt that his patience was exhausted.
"Then, the Tang family lives in town."
Jiang Youzhen thought carefully. Tang family? She suddenly thought of another wealthy family in the town, the Tang family.
The Tang family is in the silk business. Their business has been booming in the past two years, and they are considered the richest family in the town.
Tang family? Does the Tang family have a young master of the right age? She really can't remember. Besides, it's not that she looks down on the old house. How can she marry into the Tang family with such a family background?
"Aunt, please help me look after her. I'll go to the Tang family first." Jiang Youzhen said without waiting for Aunt Ya to reply, and quickly left the old house.
