Letting Loose After Marrying A Tycoon

Jiang Zhen woke up with a shaking feeling. He opened his eyes and found darkness all around him. His legs and feet were tied, and a cotton ball was stuffed in his mouth.

This is where?

Where is mom?

Where is my sister?

Despite his young age, Jiang Zhen also realized something was wrong.

The unknown environment frightened Jiang Zhen. He began to cry silently, whimpering softly from his mouth, but no one paid him any attention.

I don't know how long it took, Jiang Zhen was so tired that he had no strength, cried so much that he had no tears left, and lay softly on the ground and fell asleep.

Clang——

The door opened and some light filtered into the darkness.

Jiang Zhen felt the dazzling light. He gradually opened his round black eyes and found himself lying in a delivery truck, with neatly packed goods beside him.

Jiang Zhen tried to sit up, but his calves were tied tightly with ropes and he couldn't sit up at all.

The door of the truck was opened, and a thin man with dark skin stood in the middle of the door of the truck and looked at Jiang Zhen.

Seeing Jiang Zhen woke up, the man shouted: "Old Chen, this little boy is awake!"

A burly middle-aged man walked over. This man was wearing a very loose and low-quality suit, and his appearance was slovenly.

The sloppy man held a cigarette in his mouth and lifted Jiang Zhen out of the car like a little sheep.

Jiang Zhen was thrown to the ground by the man. He looked at the man in front of him in horror, and then at the strange environment he was in, only to realize that he had been taken into a forest by these people. He was lying on the rugged ground at the moment. on the muddy road.

The burly man squatted down and roughly pulled the cotton ball out of Jiang Zhen's mouth. Jiang Zhen gasped for air, and asked the man in fear and anger: "Who are you! Where is my mother!"

Jiang Zhen opened his mouth and the sound that came out was hoarse. He was thirsty and wanted to drink water, but he wanted to go home.

"kid."

The man blew out the cigarette from his mouth, squatted down and crushed the cigarette into a crumpled ball with his toes. He reached out and touched Jiang Zhen's face and said, "Forget your comfortable days before. From now on, there will be no more beautiful and gentle mothers."

Jiang Zhen is already four years old, and he has long been able to understand adults.

Hearing this, Jiang Zhen opened his mouth and started crying, but when he cried with a hoarse voice, his voice sounded like a dying kitten.

"Send me back! Send me home!"

The man ignored Jiang Zhen's crying. He stood up with his hands on his knees and said to his companion: "Bring that little girl down!"

The thin, dark man walked into the truck, and after a while, he took out a little girl who was unconscious. That was Jiang Bi. She was still wearing the princess dress from the birthday party. The pure white tutu was stained with a lot of black dirt.

The man jumped out of the truck with Jiang Bi in his arms and threw Jiang Bi in front of Jiang Zhen. Then, he pulled up the sleeves of his suit, revealing a low-quality fake gold watch on his wrist. The man glanced at the time and said to his companion in a thick Sichuan accent: "Old Chen, the time is almost up."

"Yeah, okay."

Lao Chen glanced at Jiang Zhen, pointed to a slope not far behind him, and asked Jiang Zhen, "Do you know where that place is?"

Jiang Zhen raised his head and glanced at the slope in the distance, with a confused look in his eyes.

Old Chen said: "That is the border. On the other side of the slope is the country of Yue. My little friend, you are going abroad soon." After that, Old Chen put Jiang Zhen on his shoulders and picked up the sleeping Jiang Zhen. Bi, led the two brothers and sisters towards the border.

Jiang Zhen didn't understand what the border was, but he knew he couldn't be sent there.

He began to struggle desperately, beating the man beneath him with his fists.

He had not eaten a grain of rice for three consecutive days and had no strength at all. The fist landed on the man's body without any pain or itching.

The man left the brother and sister on the grass down the slope. He stood on the ridge and looked at the brothers Jiang Zhen and Jiang Bi. Staring into Jiang Zhen's fierce eyes, Lao Chen frowned and said, "Kid, don't blame me. If not, blame someone for giving you too much money."

Jiang Zhen watched helplessly as Lao Chen and the thin, dark man drove away in the car. He struggled on the ground for a moment, but still couldn't break free of the rope around him. After about a few minutes, another short, dark man walked out of the woods behind them.

The short man took away the Jiang Zhen brothers and sisters and locked them in an abandoned pigsty. The pigsty was smelly, noisy, and extremely dark. Jiang Bi woke up and found that they were locked in a pig pen, and was so frightened that he cried.

Jiang Zhen sat on the ground, looking at his crying sister, his eyes turned red.

"Come here." Jiang Zhen stretched out his hand towards Jiang Bi.

Jiang Bi crawled towards Jiang Zhen. The brother and sister who had had a fight just a few days ago now regarded each other as their only salvation and hugged each other tightly.

Jiang Bi leaned in Jiang Zhen's arms. She cried and said, "Brother, I'm so hungry."

Jiang Zhen's stomach was also growling. He hugged Jiang Bi's arm and choked with sobs: "Have a nap, and when you wake up, you will have something to eat." They had not eaten or drank for three days, and the mouths of the two children were peeling. .

Jiang Bi closed her eyes, tears still flowing down. After a while, Jiang Bi said again: "Brother, I want to drink water."

Jiang Zhen covered Jiang Bi's mouth and said, "Speak less and you won't be thirsty."

Jiang Bi was hungry and thirsty. After crying for a while, he fell asleep.

When I woke up, it was already dawn.

The pigsty was built downstairs in a hanging building, with walls on all sides, leaving only two openings for ventilation.

Jiang Zhen stared at the sunlight outside the vent and touched his hungry belly. It felt particularly unpleasant. Jiang Bi leaned on Jiang Zhen's shoulder. She stuck out her dry tongue, licked her equally dry lips, and said with a longing look on her face: "Brother, I want to eat cake."

Jiang Zhen thought of the birthday cake that was destroyed by the brother and sister. His nose suddenly sore and he couldn't help but wipe his tears.

"Brother, I will never ruin the cakes my mother made for us again." Jiang Bi misses that cake and the person who made it for them.

Jiang Zhen finally cried. He said with tears: "We will never be able to eat the cakes made by our mother again. Jiang Bi, we can't go back home. We can't go back." They were far away from their hometown. I can’t see my parents anymore either.

Jiang Bi was stunned when he heard what his brother said, and then burst into tears.

Jiang Bi's cry alerted people outside.

The pigsty door was pushed open, and a fat woman walked in carrying an iron basin. There were two bowls of water, two corns, and steamed buns in the basin.

The woman stood outside the pig pen, looked at the Jiang Zhen brothers and sisters sarcastically, and asked, "Are you hungry? As long as you are obedient and do as I say, I will give you something to eat."

Jiang Zhen frowned and looked at the woman without saying a word.

Jiang Bi started crying and said, "I want my mother!"

The woman slammed the basin on the fence of the pig pen, making a clanging sound, which frightened Jiang Bi and quickly stopped crying. "You are never allowed to talk about mother again! You are orphans now, your parents have died long ago! You have no mother!"

Jiang Zhen clenched his fists tightly and stared at the woman with hatred, wishing to eat her alive!

"Are you hungry?" the woman asked gruffly.

Jiang Bi looked at the corn in the basin, her stomach growled unsatisfactorily, and she swallowed subconsciously.

Seeing Jiang Bi's little action, the woman was extremely satisfied, "Little girl, if you call me aunt and follow me obediently, aunt will feed you, give you water, take you to take a bath, and wear beautiful clothes for you." "

Hearing this, Jiang Bi subconsciously took a step towards the woman, but was hugged around the waist by Jiang Zhen in time.

"Don't go!" Jiang Zhen dragged Jiang Bi back and glared at her fiercely, "Jiang Bi, you are not allowed to eat her food!"

Jiang Bi was scolded by her brother, feeling wronged and scared. She pursed her lips and turned her head stubbornly, not daring to look at the food bowl in her aunt's hand.

Jiang Zhen looked at the woman indifferently and said, "Take your things away, we won't eat your things, and you don't want us to call you aunt."

"Ignorant!" The woman turned around and left.

The pigsty door was closed again and was not opened until dark.

At night, Jiang Bi was really hungry and kept grumbling.

Jiang Zhen was also uncomfortable, because he was so hungry that his stomach was burning. Hearing Jiang Bi's groaning voice, Jiang Zhen held her in his arms worriedly.

As soon as he got close to Jiang Bi, Jiang Zhen was frightened by Jiang Bi's hot body. "Jiang Bi!" Jiang Bi's eyes were dull and her words were unclear. Jiang Zhen called her name, but she didn't respond.

Jiang Zhen quickly touched Jiang Bi's forehead, neck and palms, and they felt hot to the touch.

She is going to die!

Jiang Zhen realized that his sister had to eat, so he quickly got out of the pigsty, stood behind the door and banged the wooden door of the pigsty hard, shouting: "Come here! Come here, my sister is sick, come here!"

"Is there anyone! My sister has a fever!"

Jiang Zhen patted the door for a long time before the fat woman came to open the door, cursing.

When Jiang Zhen saw the woman come in, he knelt down directly, grabbed the woman's wrist with both hands, and begged her in a hoarse voice: "Please, give my sister some water and something to eat, she is starving to death."

Jiang Zhen himself was so hungry that he was dehydrated, his energy was listless, and he could no longer hold on. "You don't want your sister to die?" the woman asked maliciously.

"I don't want to, please, save her!"

"Okay." The woman looked at Jiang Bi, who had a blushing face. She deliberately made things difficult for Jiang Zhen and said, "If you do what I say, I will save her."

"I listen to you, I listen to you!"

"It would be great if it were like this earlier!"

The woman carried Jiang Bi back to the house and fed her a lot of water and some porridge. Jiang Zhen also got water and porridge, and he sat in a small corner and wolfed down the food.

At dawn, Jiang Bigao's fever had subsided a lot, but he was still in poor spirits. The woman had breakfast, brought two sets of clean clothes for Jiang Bi to change into, and asked Jiang Zhen to take a shower and put on clean clothes.

After changing their clothes, the brother and sister were taken out of the remote village by the woman and took a minibus into the city. After getting on the bus, Jiang Zhen wanted to ask someone for help, but he found that the passengers were speaking a completely different language!

Jiang Zhen is desperate!

There was no way he could ask for help because of the language barrier!

The woman drove her brother and sister for a whole day, and when it was almost dark, she brought them to a relatively luxurious small bungalow. Jiang Bi and Jiang Zhen were locked in a room. Jiang Zhen saw the woman counting money through the crack in the door.

Jiang Zhen knew that they were sold to other couples as sons by women.

Jiang Zhen realized that he would never return to the Jiang family, and they would never see his parents again. He immediately wanted to cry. But when he saw Jiang Bi sleeping on the bed, he could only hold back his tears secretly.

He is the older brother, he cannot cry.

After the woman left, a middle-aged couple came in and talked to them. Jiang Zhen listened to their words with vague understanding, without any reaction.

After that day, Jiang Zhen and Jiang Bi were imprisoned and raised by the couple for half a year. Gradually, Jiang Zhen was able to understand their language and learned that the family's surname was Trn, which was Chen.

Mr. Chen is a fruit vendor. He and his wife run a fruit business in the county town, and their family conditions are pretty good. But both of them were infertile, so they took a different approach and bought two children from a trafficker.

After imprisoning Jiang Zhen and the others for half a year, and making sure that Jiang Zhen and the others were obedient and would not run away, the adoptive father allowed Jiang Zhen to go to school. Worried that Jiang Zhen would call the police, his adoptive father detained Jiang Bi at home.

His sister is Jiang Zhen's weakness, and he will never leave her and run away alone.

Jiang Zhen and Jiang Bi both have new names. Jiang Zhen is called Ao Han and Jiang Bi is called Fang Qing.

Jiang Bi was afraid that she would forget her true identity. Jiang Zhen, who had been in kindergarten for half a year and could only write his own name, secretly wrote Jiang Zhen's name under the bed with a burned wood stick.

In this way, they lived in their new family for two years. When Jiang Zhen was six years old, his adoptive mother took them to the wholesale market in the city to buy clothes.

The wholesale market is full of fakes of Nike and Adidas. The adoptive mother bought Jiang Zhen a set of smart sportswear and a pair of sneakers with hooks. I bought Jiang Bi a pair of loose and ill-fitting casual clothes, hoping she could wear them for a few more years.

After buying clothes, the adoptive mother asked Jiang Zhen again: "Ao Han, what do you like to eat? Mom buys it for you?" She only asked Jiang Zhen and completely ignored Jiang Bi.

Jiang Bi lowered her head, and she was introverted and didn't react at all.

Jiang Zhen glanced at his sister and then said, "I want to eat plain chicken."

"Okay, mommy will buy it for you. You and Fang Qing will wait for me here." The adoptive mother left Jiang Zhen and Jiang Bi at the door of the store, while she trotted across the street to buy white-cut chicken.

After buying the boiled chicken, the adoptive mother went back with the delicious food, but when she turned around, she found that the child was missing.

"Hey, Ao Han, Fang Qing!"

The adoptive mother stamped her feet anxiously, carrying her things and chasing him along the alley next to the street.

Jiang Zhen pulled his sister and ran as fast as he could. Jiang Bi ran with her brother for a while, but she couldn't run anymore. She stopped Jiang Zhen and said, "Brother, I can't run anymore!"

Without looking back, Jiang Zhen pulled her and continued running, "Sister, we have to get out of here. I believe in my brother, he will take you home!" Even though he could no longer remember where his home was, Jiang Zhen still never gave up. The thought of going home.

He led Jiang Bi and ran for two streets, but his adoptive mother still caught up with him.

"Ao Han! Fang Qing, why are you running! Mom is here!" The adoptive mother guessed that the children wanted to escape. She cursed in her heart that they were a pair of unfamiliar wolves, but she did not dare to make a fuss. Big.

Hearing their adoptive mother's voice, Jiang Zhen and Jiang Bi ran faster.

The adoptive mother shouted a few more times, to the effect that she asked the people on the roadside to help her catch Jiang Zhen and Jiang Bi. Seeing that her mother had spoken, some enthusiastic people actually helped catch Jiang Zhen and Jiang Bi.

Jiang Zhen protected his sister in his arms and shouted at those nosy people with red eyes: "Get away! That's not our mother! We were trafficked here!"

Jiang Zhen had learned to transcend language. When he shouted these words, the adults who caught him looked suspicious.

Is this boy telling the truth, or is he lying?

boom--

At this moment, the adoptive mother who was rushing across the road to catch Jiang Zhen's brother and sister was hit by a small truck and flew away. The foster mother fell to the ground, dead on the spot, and the plain-cut chicken was scattered all over the floor.

"ah!"

Someone in the crowd shouted.

When Jiang Zhen and Jiang Bi heard the noise, they turned around and stared blankly at the adoptive mother who was knocked out by the pickup truck and lying on the ground. Their eyes widened.

But Jiang Zhen quickly came to his senses. He covered Jiang Bi's eyes and said, "Don't look, brother is here." Jiang Bi shivered in Jiang Zhen's arms.

At this time, the adults beside them grabbed them without any explanation and brought them to the body of their adoptive mother. "Look, it's your mother's death because of your naughty running around!"

"What a sin!"

Jiang Zhen and Jiang Bi were taken back by their adoptive father. After taking them back, their adoptive father locked the siblings in a room. Two days later, the adoptive mother was buried and the adoptive father returned home alone.

He closed the door to his home, took a bamboo whip from the tool room, and went upstairs with the whip.

On the second floor, Jiang Zhen and Jiang Bi heard the footsteps getting closer and held their breath. Jiang Bi grabbed her brother's clothes and asked in a low voice: "Brother, will he kill us?"

Jiang Zhen said, "Come with me." Jiang Zhen led Jiang Bi to the closet. He opened the closet door and said to Jiang Bi, "Go in!"

Jiang Bi shook his head and refused to hide in. "Dad will beat you to death!"

"Obey, you go in!" Jiang Zhen pushed Jiang Bi into the closet. He closed the door and said to Jiang Bi: "Sister, if, if I was beaten to death by him, he should calm down. You "

"Remember, when you grow up, you must leave this hellish place!"

Jiang Bi sobbed in the closet.

boom--

The door was kicked open by a man. The adoptive father walked in with a bamboo whip in his hand. When he saw Jiang Zhen, he twitched the flesh on his face and roared at him: "You bastard, get here!"

Jiang Zhen was so scared that his legs were weak, but when he heard his sister's cry in the closet, he gritted his teeth and walked slowly towards his adoptive father step by step.

Before he could get close to his adoptive father, he was grabbed by the collar.

The adoptive father lifted him up and threw him hard against the wall. Jiang Zhen's body hit the wall, and his internal organs shook. He fell to the ground again, his head feeling dizzy. At that moment, Jiang Zhen thought he was going to die.

"Bitch!" The adoptive father came over, kicked Jiang Zhen in the stomach, and cursed angrily: "How dare you run away! I killed your mother! You are a white-eyed wolf! It is indeed a white-eyed wolf! You and I will die!" "

The man punched and kicked Jiang Zhen. When he got tired, he whipped him with the bamboo whip in his hand. Jiang Zhen could still shout at first, but later he no longer had the strength to shout anymore, so he lay on the ground and allowed the man to vent his anger and beat him.

The beating lasted for more than 20 minutes.

When the man stopped, Jiang Zhen was already dying. "Fuck!" The man smeared saliva on Jiang Zhen's face, then turned back towards the cabinet and forgot about it.

Jiang Bi hid between the gaps in the closet door, watching this horrific scene with tears. When she found her adoptive father looking towards her, Jiang Bi was so frightened that she rolled out of the cabinet.

She fell to the ground, then quickly got up, knelt and kowtowed to apologize, "Dad, I was wrong, I will never run away again, I don't dare!"

The man was already thundering, and now he had no energy to deal with Jiang Bi. He pointed at Jiang Zhen and threatened him: "If you dare to run away again, I will cramp and skin your sister!"

Jiang Zhen glared at the man with eyes full of unwillingness and gritted his teeth.

The man left quickly.

After he left, Jiang Bi crawled to his brother's side. Jiang Bi saw the injuries on Jiang Zhen's body and the blood at the corner of her mouth. She was so frightened that she didn't know where to start to hug her brother.

"Brother." Jiang Bi's tears fell on Jiang Zhen's face, "Brother, don't die, don't die!"

Jiang Zhen gave her a weak smile and fainted.

That severe beating left Jiang Zhen with a broken left arm, a broken rib, and pain in his spleen for more than a month. But Jiang Zhen didn't see a doctor, and the man didn't even allow him to go out.

Jiang Zhen was locked up again, this time for another two months.

One day a month later, Jiang Zhen was released. The day he was released, Jiang Bi was handcuffed and locked in the room.

The adoptive father sat on a chair in the living room and took a puff of dry cigarette. He told Jiang Zhen: "Ao Han, watch out. Your sister is locked at home by me. If you dare to run away, I will kill your sister's arm and kill her." Kill her!"

He spent all his savings to buy this pair of siblings, and he still had to count on the pair of siblings to support him until the end of his life.

He will not give up if Jiang Zhen is not tamed!

Jiang Zhen glanced at his sister, silently picked up his schoolbag, silently walked out of the house and went to school. In this way, the brother and sister and their adoptive father continued to live together peacefully.

Later, in order to free his sister, Jiang Zhen began to act like a good son. At school, he studied hard to get the first place in the exam. When he went home and went to bed at night, he would pretend to be dreaming and call his mother to deceive his adoptive father's trust.

In addition, Jiang Zhen will also prepare meals for his adoptive father to come back in the evening, and even clean his clothes.

Seeing Jiang Zhen being so obedient, the adoptive father felt that the child was really sensible and knew what was good and bad, so he gradually felt relieved about him. It took Jiang Zhen a year to completely gain his adoptive father's trust, and then his adoptive father removed Jiang Bi's chains.

In this way, they lived together for another three years.

In the blink of an eye, Jiang Zhen and his sister are now ten years old, and six years have passed since they were sold to the Yue Kingdom.

Jiang Bi grew more and more beautiful and graceful. Many people in the neighborhood liked her and were waiting for her to marry her when she grew up.

Seeing that his daughter is so popular, his adoptive father is happy from the bottom of his heart. He is now looking forward to Jiang Bi growing up quickly. When she grows up, he will find her a rich husband and ask for more betrothal gifts.

Jiang Zhen knew his adoptive father's plan, but he did not express dissatisfaction and did not dare to express his dissatisfaction. He often stayed up late to teach Jiang Bi how to read and write. Therefore, even though Jiang Bi had never gone to school, he was still literate.

Jiang Bi's pencil broke. Jiang Zhen handed his pen to Jiang Bi. He picked up a knife to sharpen the pencil, but he lost his balance and the pencil sharpener fell under the bed and was nowhere to be found.

Jiang Zhen turned on the flashlight and got under the bed, only to find that the blade had fallen behind the bedpost. Jiang Bi got under the bed and got the pencil sharpener. When he was about to climb out, he discovered that there were two words written on black wooden sticks on the wooden bed board.

——Jiang Zhen.

Jiang Zhen stared blankly at the two unfamiliar words, his eyes suddenly blurred.

Jiang Bi saw Jiang Zhen lying under the bed and not coming out, so she thought the pencil sharpener was missing. "Brother, did you find the pencil sharpener?"

Jiang Zhen quickly wiped his eyes and slid out from under the bed. He said, "Found it."

Jiang Bi was surprised when she saw Jiang Zhen's eye circles were red, "Brother, are you crying?"

Jiang Zhen sat on a small stool, holding his pencil in silence without answering.

Jiang Bi asked again: "Brother, why are you crying?"

Jiang Zhen suddenly raised his head and stared at Jiang Bi, asking her, "Do you still remember our original names?"

Jiang Bi was stunned for a moment, then shook his head. "I do not remember."

"Then do you remember where our home is?"

Jiang Bi still shook his head.

Jiang Zhen suddenly felt very frustrated. When he exerted force with his hand, the pencil sharpener directly cut off the pencil lead. The skin of his fingers was also cut, leaving blood.

Jiang Zhen stared at the blood on his fingertips, lowered his head and said, "Bier, I will definitely take you home in the future."

Jiang Bi was speechless, probably because he had given up hope on this matter.

Jiang Zhen put down his knife and pen and went to the vegetable garden with a flashlight. He found a kind of grass in the vegetable garden, crushed the grass and applied it directly to the wound on his finger.

Jiang Zhen held down the medicinal herbs and waited for the bleeding to stop before preparing to return to the house. He flashed his flashlight and walked through the hall downstairs, heading towards the stairwell, when he heard conversations coming from the restaurant.

Jiang Zhen stopped immediately when he heard the words "Buy it and keep it" and "It's about to grow up". He turned around calmly, turned off the flashlight, and walked quietly outside the restaurant.

Jiang Zhen leaned against the wall and eavesdropped.

inside the house.

The adoptive father smoked a dry cigarette and stared at the woman in front of him silently.

The woman was a matchmaker. She danced and said: "Your family Fang Qing is a beauty. It is your blessing that the young master of the Ruan family can like Fang Qing."

"The young master's family is rich. If your daughter is married, she won't have to worry about food and clothing. The Ruan family is also generous. When they married the daughter of the Zheng family, they gave so much money!" The matchmaker raised her five fingers. The expression on the fingers is very exaggerated.

The adoptive father stared at the matchmaker's raised finger, and his eyes finally changed. He said with some worry: "But the young master of the Ruan family has already married three wives, and each of them died in an unknown way. If we, Fang Qing, marry her, too..."

The adoptive father's words stopped short, but the matchmaker already knew what he wanted to express.

The matchmaker was a little embarrassed. She said: "This is because those ladies don't have the luxury to enjoy the glory and wealth. It has nothing to do with the young master."

"Fang Qing is still young, so she will be sent there to be raised first, and she will cultivate a relationship with the young master, and we will not get married until she grows up. Oh, boss Chen, don't hesitate. Fang Qing has not studied, and your family's conditions are like this. , being favored by the Ruan family means that you, Fang Qing, have such a blessed life."

The adoptive father hesitated for a while before saying, "I'll think about it."

When Jiang Zhen returned to the room, Jiang Bi didn't dare to speak to his brother when he saw his gloomy expression.

Jiang Zhen walked to the bed and sat down. He stared at his young sister. He felt heartbroken when he thought that his sister would probably be sold to the Ruan family as a child bride.

Seeing her brother looking straight at her with a serious look, Jiang Bi tightened her pencil and asked in a low voice: "Brother, what happened?"

Jiang Zhen didn't say anything, just fell down on the bed and pretended to sleep. When Jiang Bi saw that her brother was going to sleep, she put away all the books and prepared to go back to the house with her things in her arms.

"Girl." Jiang Zhen suddenly called girl.

Jiang Bi hadn't heard her brother call her like this for a long time. She turned around and stared at the little boy on the bed.

"Girl, I will protect you forever." Jiang Zhen said.

Jiang Bi smiled lightly, "I know, brother."

Within a few days, Jiang Zhen found a group of strangers at home, including a man in a suit. The man was thirty years old, wearing a huge gold chain around his neck. He was squatting next to Jiang Bi, talking to her.

Jiang Bi was washing vegetables. She lowered her head, her face was red, and she was too embarrassed to talk to anyone.

Jiang Zhen was carrying his schoolbag and hiding behind a tree, watching the scene from a distance and secretly clenching his fists. He suddenly left and went to the city.

Jiang Zhen walked into a clinic and said to the doctor: "My father's throat is inflamed and the pain is so painful that he can't even eat. Let me buy him some anti-inflammatory medicine."

The doctor asked: "Do you have any history of allergies?"

"No."

The doctor prescribed some medicine to Jiang Zhen. When giving the medicine to Jiang Zhen, he also told him: "Remember to tell your father that you can't drink alcohol after taking this medicine!"

Jiang Zhen nodded, took the medicine and went back. The adoptive father gave him a guilty look and asked him, "Why are you back so late?"

Jiang Zhen gave the medicine to his adoptive father, "Don't you have a sore throat? I bought you medicine." Dropping his schoolbag again, Jiang Zhen asked his adoptive father: "Have you cooked?"

"Not yet, the vegetables are cut."

"Then I'll cook." Jiang Zhen rolled up his sleeves and went to the kitchen to set up a stool to cook.

The adoptive father stared at the medicine in his hand, somewhat moved. "Thanks, kid." The medicine was prepared by a doctor, folded in a cut newspaper, and drank one packet at a time. The adoptive father opened the newspaper and drank the six or seven pills.

He stared at the boy cooking in the kitchen, hesitant to speak. How to tell this child that his sister is about to be sold to someone else's house to be a child bride?

The man hesitated for a long time, but still didn't have the nerve to speak.

Jiang Zhen quickly cooked the vegetables and poured his adoptive father a glass of wine as usual. When giving the wine to his adoptive father, Jiang Zhen said, "Drink less."

"I don't do anything at night, so it won't hurt if I drink a couple more glasses." The adoptive father picked up the wine glass and took a sip.

Jiang Zhen stared at his movements with a cold look on his small face.
