Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Jiang Si sneered at Jiang Xi’s back as he rode away on the pig. He would kill that b*stard sooner or later! He had lost so much face today, and Jiang Xi was an ungrateful thing!
“Everyone, I’m a servant from the Zhao family. It’s my family’s Eldest Young Master who ordered me to deliver the Mid-Autumn Festival gifts to Happy Village. May I know how to get to Happy Village?” A servant came out of the Zhao family’s carriage and asked the crowd politely.
The Zhao family’s butler was sitting inside, but he was guessing why the Eldest Young Master Zhao Ruifeng had a different opinion of the girl who had given her blessings.
“What a coincidence, I’m from the Happy Village. Just follow this road and take the third turn.” Jiang Si’s eyes lit up. The most mysterious place in the town was the Zhao family’s courtyard! However, the Zhao family’s courtyard was not often occupied. Occasionally, someone from the capital would come to stay for a period of time. Those who came were very low-key, and even the surrounding county officials could not find anyone to curry favor with. However, someone from the small Happy Village had actually asked the Zhao family to rush over to give him gifts!
“I wonder who you are looking for in the Happy Village? I grew up in Happy Village, maybe I know the person you’re looking for and can lead you there.” Jiang Si had once felt ashamed that he was born in the Happy Village. Now, he was grateful that he was born in the Happy Village. At this moment, Jiang Si seemed to have forgotten that his father, Jiang Guoyou, had been injured by the Zhao family’s butler and was recuperating at home.
The Zhao family’s butler did not know Jiang Si, but Jiang Si knew the Zhao family’s butler. When he went to the medical Hall that day, he found out about the ins and outs of his father, Jiang Guoyou’s, beating. He knew that his uncle, Yang Shaoqun, had teamed up with the Zhao family’s butler to bully his father. However, Jiang Si could not see any of this and only wanted to curry favor with the Zhao family.
“We’re looking for the Jiang family of the Happy Village,” the Zhao family’s servant said.
The Zhao family’s butler, who was sitting in the carriage, only felt that the Jiang family sounded familiar, but he did not think much about it. In his eyes, Jiang Guoyou’s family were just farmers who did hard labor. He would never be able to have any relationship with the Zhao family in his life.
Jiang Si was stunned. He opened his mouth and his shoulders trembled. It took him a lot of effort to hold back the smile on his face. He could feel the cold gazes of his classmates burning up at this moment, so hot that they could burn his back! The Zhao family! Their family could actually have a relationship with the Zhao family! He said impatiently, “The Jiang family? I’m from the Jiang family of Happy Village.”
“Oh? You’re a member of the Jiang family? That’s great, let’s get on the carriage together.” The Zhao family’s butler, who was sitting in the carriage, suddenly asked Jiang Si to sit in the carriage with him! There was another carriage behind their carriage, which was used to carry the gifts.
Jiang Si straightened his back. He felt like he was in a dream tonight. First, he had walked home, then he had encountered a wild boar for no reason, and now he had connections with the Zhao family! All of this made him feel like he was dreaming.
After that, Jiang Si’s classmates also got into the carriage with the gifts. The group of people drove toward Happy Village. Jiang Si’s classmates looked at each other in the carriage, and the way they looked at Jiang Si had changed. What kind of existence was the Zhao family? The Zhao family itself was a marquis’s mansion. Now, who did not know that Zhao Ruifeng was the emperor’s favorite official? if it was not for his strange bad luck that made the emperor depressed, it was estimated that Zhao Ruifeng would be even more powerful! Some people even said that Zhao Ruifeng could have been further promoted, but the higher his official position, the closer he was to the emperor. The emperor was afraid of Zhao Ruifeng’s bad luck and did not dare to give him an official title. After all, even the Qi of a true dragon could not withstand Zhao Ruifeng’s bad luck! Therefore, Zhao Ruifeng could only stand outside the door when he went to court. It was the first time in thousands of years that an official was treated like this!
When Jiang Xi entered the village, she caused a huge commotion. Everyone knew that the Jiang family had hunted a wild boar. It was so fat and strong. It was too late at night and the sky was too dark, so no one noticed that there was a person sitting on the wild boar.
Everyone surrounded the wild boar and clicked their tongues in wonder. Someone even asked, “Jiang Da, when are you going to kill your wild boar? If you need our help, just let us know. Our service is free, but you have to sell the wild boar meat to us at a lower price.”
Some people asked, and some people went to tell each other, wanting to share the news with everyone. In the blink of an eye, the news of the Jiang family hunting a big wild boar had spread throughout the entire Happy Village. It was also because of this big wild boar that the Jiang family had established an unshakeable position in the Happy Village!
