Chapter 172 Jade Tablet
"Give me a specific time."
Jiang Anning said neither softly nor hardly: "You can't keep thinking about it. If you keep thinking about it, I have to wait for you."
She smiled lightly, but it gave people an inexplicable sense of oppression: "How about you tell me a time when you can give me an accurate answer, and then I decide whether to wait for you?"
Sang Donghai's face suddenly became ugly.
"What do you mean?"
Could it be that this woman thought that he would use the excuse that he needed to think about it, eating up time and letting things go?
He wouldn't be so shameless!
"It's not interesting, you don't have to think too much." Jiang Anning smiled slightly: "I just think it would be better if everyone speaks clearly and clearly first, and it won't waste each other's time, don't you think?"< br>
Sang Donghai's face became even more ugly.
"I just feel that since I have reached a certain consensus with your brother."
Jiang Anning looked at Sang Nanshan with a questioning look in her eyes: Right?
Sang Nanshan nodded without thinking: "I said I would help you, and I will definitely help you."
He said, as if making a promise: "I will never go back on my word!"
Jiang Anning was noncommittal about this. She had long since disbelieved the promise coming from the man's mouth.
She only cares that at this time, Sang Nanshan's attitude is enough to help her get Sang into the East China Sea, and she can only get on board her pirate ship.
"What I want to do can be done with the help of your brother."
Jiang Anning: "Of course, it is very likely that after this matter is started, you will choose to help the villagers one day in the future because you really can't stand it and stand on the opposite side of me and your brother."
"Although I don't want to see such a situation where brothers turn against each other, but...all the decision-making power is in your own hands, and I am really unable to interfere."
To put it simply: since you want to think about it and think about it slowly, just think about it and think about it slowly!
Anyway, I won’t need you soon!
This is clearly forcing him to make a choice!
Sang Donghai's chest rose and fell violently, and he was obviously very angry.
"Are you threatening me?" he asked angrily.
Jiang Anning blinked her eyes innocently: "Why do you think so? It's too conspiracy theory."
She laughed so hard that she deserved to be beaten: "I'm just telling the truth."
As he said that, he sighed in an exaggerated and artificial way: "As for how you want to interpret my truth, that's your business. I can't control what you think, right?"
"What's more, I can't control it!"
Sang Donghai was so angry and depressed that he had nowhere to express his anger. He wanted to scold Jiang Aning for being evil-hearted and vowed not to associate with villains.
But when he saw his brother's stupid look, Sang Donghai had no choice but to endure it no matter how angry he was.
He took a deep breath and tried to keep his tone as calm and friendly as possible: "Tomorrow, I will definitely give you an answer tomorrow."
"Okay."
Jiang Anning smiled kindly and was very friendly, and gave away half of the cleaned black fish: "They are all cleaned up, take them home, put them in the pot and stew them for a while, add some farm sauce , it’s delicious.”
Sang Donghai didn't want it.
The mouth that eats people is soft, and the hands that take people are short.
Who knows if after eating this woman's fish today, there will be a bigger pit waiting for the two brothers tomorrow?
However, this gift was extremely good in Sang Nanshan's eyes.
He happily took the fish and said to Sang Donghai in a flamboyant manner: "Look, my sister An Ning even gave us fish to eat. What a good person! She didn't get angry or blame you for your malicious speculation on her. Instead, she It’s repaying evil with kindness.”
"Look at other people's structures, and then look at yours, won't your conscience hurt?"
Sang Donghai almost died of anger.
If it weren't for the inappropriate occasion, and now, Sang Nanshan didn't know what kind of ecstasy soup he had been fed, and he was inexplicably rebellious, very rebellious, and very resistant to everything he said.
He really wanted to slap someone in the face with his hand.
Forget it!
"Go home!"
Sang Donghai gave Sang Nanshan a hard look and walked away angrily.
Sang Nanshan glanced at Jiang Anning with some reluctance.
This time...
He was probably going to be scolded by his brother again. He even said "please ask for help" just now, which shows that he is really angry.
The words "asking for family law" have always been a very serious matter in the Sang family.
For common mistakes, the elders would just criticize them and make them go away with a few words of criticism.
If it really comes to the point of "asking for family law", nine times out of ten, you will be expelled from the clan.
I heard that Aunt Jingwan was expelled from the family back then.
But he felt that this rumor was probably true.
If Aunt Jingwan was really expelled from the clan, then why is Aunt Jingwan’s longevity jade tablet enshrined in the family’s ancestral hall?
Moreover, they all said that Aunt Jingwan was dead.
But he clearly saw records in the family's handbooks that the longevity jade tablets of living people were dark green.
If the person is deceased, the longevity jade medal will gradually turn light green as the person passes away, until it loses color.
Aunt Jingwan’s longevity jade tablet...
Sang Nanshan recalled the family sacrifice he participated in not long ago before going out. Out of curiosity and rebellion, he ignored the repeated instructions of his elders and secretly took a look while the conductor was conducting the ceremony and all the clansmen were worshiping devoutly. , his face could not stop turning pale.
He remembered clearly that at that time, Aunt Jingwan's longevity jade plaque had indeed turned a light green color, but not long after, the longevity jade plaque turned into a thick dark green, which was worse than the longevity clan elders who were still alive next to him. , thicker and greener...
Because the color of the longevity jade tablet became too abrupt, he was so frightened that he made a sound. He was reprimanded and punished by the elders of the clan, and was even almost "asked for family punishment". Later, his parents interceded for him, and Zi Jingwan The high priest, who had never been seen since his aunt's death, suddenly came and said something to the clan elders. The clan elders looked at him in a different way!
Later, he was sent to Jiangjia Village with his eldest brother to work for Jiang Wei.
Originally he was unwilling.
Even though the people sent by Jiang Wei didn't say it clearly, for so many years, everyone in the clan has been in danger. Facing their enemy Jiang'anhou Mansion, almost everyone in the clan wished they could recognize it even if it turned into ashes. The momentum deeply engraved the appearance of everyone in Jiang'anhou Mansion into their minds.
Not that they wanted revenge.
However, after all, they had formed a rift with others. Although I don’t know what the reason was, the Jiang’an Marquis Mansion, which had originally attempted to exterminate and slaughter the Sang clan, suddenly stopped, and even some attempts to Turning hostilities into friendship with them means turning them into friendship.
However, it seems that there are big differences within their Jiang'anhou Mansion on whether to shake hands and make peace.
Simply put, although the Sang clan has always been content in a corner and doesn't like to fight...oh, they don't have the guts to fight.
But it's not so bad that if someone slaps you, you not only don't dare to get angry, but you also smile and show the other half of your face.
Facing the people from the Jiang'an Hou Mansion who came to seek peace, the elders of the clan did not give a good look.
The two sides failed to reach an agreement, and finally the matter was settled.
But for the people of the Jiang'an Marquis Mansion, the clan elders, who had always been unwilling to quarrel with others and only thought about protecting their own lives, unexpectedly spent a lot of effort and money in the clan to bury a secret among the dignitaries in the capital. The nails were used to pass back the portraits of people in Jiang'anhou Mansion among the clan.
Among them, naturally, Jiang Wei, who left home early...
There are even portraits of Jiang Wei later, after he stayed in Jiang'an County for two or three years, just to make it easier for the clan members to distinguish him, so as not to be deceived.
Therefore, even if they haven't come to Jiang'an County yet and see that the person who hired them is Jiang Wei, they have already guessed from the person's whereabouts and overt and covert remarks that the other party is most likely to go to Jiang'an County to meet Jiang Wei. Jiang Wei, who has been estranged from Anhou Mansion for many years.
He didn't want to have anything to do with the people in Jiang'anhou Mansion.
They are all things that are used to destroy bridges across rivers, unload mills and kill donkeys!
Even after using people, they have to exterminate their clansmen.
He is simply a white-eyed wolf!
But because of what happened during the sacrificial ceremony that day, he broke the etiquette during the sacrificial ceremony with a loud voice and disturbed his ancestors, which was disrespectful. If he complained again and refused to do so, he was afraid that he would really be punished. Therefore, no matter how unwilling you are, you can only come.
Now it seems that what he thought was indeed right!
Jiang Wei and his family are all the same thing!
Deceived them to come here, and then dug such a big hole for them.
Sang Nanshan was thinking wildly, but he had already followed Sang Donghai back home.
"Brother..."
He called out to someone timidly, waiting anxiously for the violent storm that was about to hit.
Surprisingly, Sang Donghai didn't scold him like before.
Instead, he kept sighing.
"Brother?"
Sang Nanshan shouted again cautiously and looked at the person in confusion.
Sang Donghai looked up at the person, became more irritated, and sighed.
"Aren't you going to scold me?"
Sang Nanshan was even more unsure about the other party's thoughts, so he asked a stupid question with a bit of natural stupidity.
Sang Donghai sneered: "You didn't do anything wrong, why should I scold you?"
"Really?"
Sang Nanshan was visibly happy, but still a little confused: "But..."
"Since you think I am not wrong, why did you scold me like that just now in front of outsiders?"
He felt a little aggrieved: "I'm so embarrassed."
"You also know that he is an outsider!"
Sang Donghai wished he could beat this stupid roe deer-like brother to death with two sticks.
"Weren't you still very committed to that vicious woman just now, opposing me in every possible way, and even going as far as to turn against me?"
"How can I?"
Sang Nanshan felt extremely wronged. He felt that he had been happy too early just now. His brother was simply moody and unreasonable.
"Didn't you just say that I didn't do anything wrong..."
"You're really stupid, aren't you?"
Sang Donghai roared: "You can't even hear the good words, right?"
Sang Nanshan looked depressed and fell silent.
Sang Donghai got angry when he saw him: "Go, go, go!"
"Go back to your room and reflect!"
"When will you think it through, when will you come over and talk to me again!"
He drove people away angrily.
Sang Nanshan straightened his back: "I have nothing to think about and nothing to think about."
"What I'm thinking about now is very clear."
"If you promise something, you must do it."
"If you speak out, the water will be poured out."
"A manly man, every spit is a nail."
"Since I just promised Jiang Anning that I would help her do what she wants to do, there is absolutely no reason to go back on it."
"You don't have to persuade me anymore."
Sang Nanshan said with a straight face: "Besides, the one who really should think clearly and understand it should be you!"
"Don't forget, you just promised sister An Ning that you would give her a definite answer tomorrow."
"Don't go back on your word until you can't do it!"
Sang Donghai looked at him with wide eyes: "Sang Nanshan, I really want to know, what kind of ecstasy soup did that witch fill you with?"
"Are you familiar with her?"
"Do you know her very well?"
"It's just a one-sided relationship. We met by chance and got a bowl of rice from him. How do you speak for her like this?"
"Sister An Ning..."
Sang Donghai was furious, closed his eyes, pressed his aching head, and calmed down for a while before calming down, but he still couldn't hide his anger: "You are so eager to be friendly, and you don't even ask if I will." Consider you my brother?”
"Is there anything I can't do? I think Sister An Ning is a very good girl, well-educated and polite."
It is as beautiful as a painting. Just looking at it makes people feel that the years have been peaceful.
"She is a woman with a vicious mind, she..."
He had just said that and made such a clear threat. How could this fool still think that the woman was a good person?
"You've had enough! Sang Donghai, are you done yet?"
"Sister An Ning doesn't care about you, but you are really getting more and more aggressive."
Sang Nanshan angrily interrupted what Sang Donghai wanted to say: "I think you are the one with truly evil thoughts."
"You are the one who is truly vicious!"
"You make malicious speculations about Sister An Ning, but no one cares about you."
"But you still don't know how to repent. Time and time again, you slander others with bad words."
"You, you, you..."
Sang Nanshan really has no experience in cursing people, let alone saying any vicious words.
What's more, the other person is still his brother.
It's not easy to curse someone's family members...let alone curse someone's elders. After all, they have the same ancestor and the same family of elders.
In the end, Sang Nanshan could only hold back one sentence: "You are simply unreasonable!"
After saying that, he snorted coldly, turned around and left.
Like a child who hasn't grown up yet, he gets angry with others.
Sang Donghai was stunned for a long time before he slowly recovered: "Who is the unreasonable one?"
It’s obviously Sang Nanshan, the idiot, who is stupid!
On the contrary, is it because he is unreasonable?
"You are unreasonable."
He muttered, as if he was upset, and shouted loudly outside the yard: "You are unreasonable!"
"You are the most unreasonable!"
It's not necessarily much more mature than Sang Nanshan.
Jiang Anning, who was listening in the corner next door, could not help but twitch the corner of her mouth: She was very childish.
After waiting for a while, when there was no more movement next door, Jiang Anning patted the dirt on her hands while holding on to the wall, and returned to the kitchen to deal with the remaining snakeheaded fish.
After thinking about it so much, I really couldn't finish it, so I simply marinated part of it with coarse salt.
For the rest, she was going to make braised black fish in sauce.
Just as he was thinking about it, the voices of Aunt Fang and the others came from outside the gate, talking and laughing.
