"What's up!"

Gong’s mother came as soon as she finished speaking about official duties.

Over the years in Hankou Village, there have been few official missions coming. Every time the official missions show up, there is a problem at sea. Many of them have seen the official missions kill pirates and bandits with their own eyes. It is not an exaggeration to say that they kill without blinking an eye.

 The villagers fear and reject official officials from the bottom of their hearts.

When they saw the officials entering the village and saw the swords on their waists, everyone quietly drew back their necks. Even Gong's mother, who was sitting on the ground making a fuss, quickly stood up, covered her face and complained pitifully. , not daring to be arrogant at all.

When the village chief saw Gong's mother taking the initiative to speak, he remained silent and had no intention of speaking on behalf of the Jiang family.

Tao was so anxious that she wanted to defend herself, but she saw several officials walking towards Jiangning seriously.

 It’s over! Tao's vision went dark and she almost fell down.

Steward Zhu quickly helped the person.

 “Meet Guang Enbo.” Several officials saluted Jiang Ning.

 The bystanders were instantly petrified and did not respond for a long time.

Zhou Tong, the head of the government office, asked respectfully: "Uncle Guang En, what are your orders?"

Jiang Ning pointed angrily at Gong's mother, "She! She's disrespectful to me. Arrest her and put her in jail to be punished!"

“Yes!” Zhou Tong waved his hand, and two cadres immediately stepped forward and arrested Gong’s mother.

Gong's mother was so frightened that she peed her pants and struggled repeatedly, "It's none of my business. She was the one who hit me. She hit me first. You can't arrest me! I'm unjust!"

Jiang Ning sneered and said: "Butler Zhu, tell a few officials what she just said."

Steward Zhu told Mother Gong’s unbearable insults word for word.

Zhou Tong was shocked and looked at Mother Gong in disbelief, "You are so brave! Don't you want to live? Come here! Take her away! Stop her mouth and cut off her tongue if she talks nonsense."

Gong’s mother’s family members were all so frightened that they did not dare to breathe. All the other villagers hid in their houses, and no one could be seen.

Zhou Tong saw that the people below had taken Gong’s mother away. He quickly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and asked cautiously: "Sir, do you have any other orders?"

Jiang Ning looked at the dull-looking Tao Shi, walked straight to Jiang Xiaoqiu, and ordered: "Go! Pack your luggage and follow me!"

Jiang Xiaoqiu still wanted to ask, but Guo grabbed her hand tightly and urged nervously: "Listen to your Majesty, go right away!"

Jiang Xiaoqiu looked at Guo and then at Jiang Ning, who had a sulky look on his face. He obediently entered the house and asked Xin Cun to help.

They say that a broken home is worth tens of thousands of dollars, and every stitch and every drop is a treasure, but this is only for the poor. Jiang Ning's face turned dark when he saw that Xin Cun had to take everything with him.

Butler Zhu was very discerning and stepped forward to remind him: "Madam, you just want to take away the valuable things."

 Xin Cun looked at the dustpan and basket in his hands, having a hard time choosing between them.

Even Zhou Tong couldn't stand it anymore and immediately went in to help.

As soon as Zhou Tong left, the village chief immediately knelt down in front of Jiang Ning and kowtowed, "Sir, this little man is too blind to see Mount Tai. Please forgive me, please forgive me."

The village chief kowtowed a few times before Jiang Ning winked at the yamen official.

Two officials immediately stepped forward to lift the village chief up, their actions were very rude.

Old God Jiang Ning was sitting on the stool without saying a word, and the solemn atmosphere was so heavy that it was breathless.

Tao Shi was wandering aside, not knowing what she was thinking. Xin Cun finished packing his things, holding the child in one hand and supporting Jiang Xiaoqiu in the other. Jiang Xiaoqiu pulled Guo, and the group slowly walked out of the house.

Jiang Ning glanced at them. They were really old, weak, sick and disabled. He shook his head unconsciously, stood up and said, "Let's go!"

"Where are you going?" Jiang Xiaoqiu couldn't help but asked.

Jiang Ning looked at her face that was somewhat similar to hers, paused, and said, "My home!"

Not long after they walked out of the yard, Gong Mei rushed out, knelt in front of Jiang Ning and kowtowed desperately, "Sir! My mother-in-law is not sensible, please spare her for once! I beg you."

Gong Mei looked very embarrassed at this time. Not only was she covered in gray, her face was wet with tears, her hair was also messy, and she felt quite pity for her.

Jiang Ning was unmoved and looked past her without blinking.

Gong Mei turned around and shouted to Jiang Xiaoqiu: "That's right! I'm not a human being, and I'm sorry for your brother! But don't forget, if it hadn't been for me, neither you nor your brother would have survived! You all owe me your life!"

Jiang Ning looked at Jiang Xiaoqiu and frowned, "What's going on?"

Jiang Xiaoqiu looked a little ugly and whispered: "Back then, my brother and I secretly went to the sea and played until we forgot the time. We didn't notice when the tide came in. We were almost swept away by the waves. She happened to see us and gave us a lift."

Jiang Ning understood and looked at Zhou Tong, "Teach that woman a lesson before letting her go!"

After saying that, she turned around and looked at Jiang Xiaoqiu coldly, "I'll repay this favor for her! For her sake, spare your mother's life. If you threaten her with this matter again in the future, you will be severely punished!"

Gong Mei shivered with fright, her tears fell even more fiercely, and she couldn't stand up until Jiang Ning and his party left.

When the villagers in Hankou Village saw them leaving, they started to show up one after another. Their eyes looked at Gong Mei with a little more pity. With such a big shot backing the Jiang family, they would definitely be prosperous. If Gong Mei hadn't made such a fuss, this would have been impossible. Wealth will be hers in the future, what a pity!

Jiang Ning took them to the entrance of the village. There was a carriage parked there. It was obvious that so many people could not fit in it.

 Fortunately, Zhou Tong was smart and immediately got an ox cart from a nearby village and let the rest of the Jiang family ride on it.

Jiang Xiaoqiu was still in a daze until she got on the bullock cart. Because the driver was an official, she didn't dare to speak, so she just endured it.

Arrived outside the yamen, Jiang Ning led housekeeper Zhu in and came out after a while. Judging from her posture, it seemed as if the yamen belonged to her family and she could come and go freely.

Tao Shi just didn’t understand and knew that her daughter, whom she hadn’t seen for more than ten years, had changed and turned into a completely different person from what she remembered.

 The group returned to Dongli Villa.

Jiang Ning asked Butler Zhu to take the Jiang family members to wash up and arrange rooms for them.

When Tao Shi and others came out after taking a shower and changing into clean clothes, they found that the hall was already filled with a table of delicacies.

Jiang Ning asked them to sit down and said, "Eat, we'll talk after eating."

Tao Shi was full of doubts and couldn't eat at all.

Jiang Ning gave her a big chicken leg and said angrily: "Eat! I couldn't eat before and always said that I would be pushed into the water for a chicken. Why not eat now that I can eat?"

Tao's eyes immediately turned red and she cried sadly, "That's not what you stole from others!"

Jiang Ning was also a little uncomfortable. He gave her the handkerchief and softened his tone, "Okay! Stop crying! If you cry any more, the food will get cold."

Tao Shi then obediently picked up the chopsticks. She didn’t pick up the vegetables either. She just ate whatever Jiang Ning picked up for her.

Jiang Ning didn’t dare to give her too many greasy things.

Jiang Xiaoqiu listened to the uncomfortable conversation between the two and found that the dishes Jiang Ning served to her grandma were all her grandma's favorites, and she became even more curious about Jiang Ning.
