Chapter 23 Strain

"Dad, have you asked Uncle Xie?" Ji Xiaotang asked Master Ji Er.∏∈,

"Xiaotang is here, sit down and talk." Master Ji Er looked up and saw that it was Ji Xiaotang, and pointed to the chair opposite to let Ji Xiaotang sit. "Xiaotang, where are you doing Qingshan's lawsuits? Who did you say?"

Ji Xiaotang was stunned.

Did Master Ji Er hear such a different answer when he asked such a word in County Magistrate Xie?

"Dad..."

Master Ji Er glanced at Ji Xiaotang and sighed slightly.

"Xiaotang, I'm afraid you heard it wrong."

Ji Xiaotang's heart suddenly sank.

"Why did Dad say that?" Ji Xiaotang asked afterwards without giving up.

"I have asked you Uncle Xie very seriously. Uncle Xie said that there is no such thing. If someone in the yamen takes charge of lawsuits, Uncle Xie has no reason that you Uncle Xie doesn't know. Since he said there is no, it's gone."

"Xiaotang, you have seen too few things at your child's house. I don't know how powerful it is."

"Your Brother Qingshan has never been a good person. He has been doing things outside over the years, and it is inevitable that he offends some people. These people can't do anything to him, and they dare not come to me and talk nonsense. They want to slander him through you, a child, that's also true."

Ji Xiaotang couldn't listen to what Mr. Ji Er said later. She had only one thought in her mind, why was this happening?

Uncle Xie had no reason to lie for Jiang Qingshan, Ji Xiaotang thought. County Magistrate Xie always treated Jiang Qingshan indifferently, but for the sake of Master Ji Er's face. The Xie family and Jiang Qingshan had no personal relationships.

It is a foregone conclusion that Jiang Qingshan took over the lawsuit. Why did Xie Zhixian say that there was no one? Was he blinded by his subordinates? Jiang Qingshan actually had such a powerful way, even the magistrate of the county concealed it?

"Okay, Xiaotang, the matter has been found out." Master Ji Er comforted him again when he saw that Ji Xiaotang was not in good mood. "Tell me about this, I did a very good job. If you have any problems in the future, you will be like this."

Master Ji Er said this, but Ji Xiaotang knew that Master Ji Er didn't believe in him anymore and treated his words as a child's words.

"Uncle Xie..."

"Uncle Xie praised you very much," Master Ji Er smiled, "The writings made by Huai Jin are quite good at reading."

County Magistrate Xie brought Xie Huaijin to visit Mr. Ji Er, and also took the article Xie Huaijin had recently written to ask Mr. Ji Er to read.

"I still have some things to do. You go and accompany your grandmother and your mother in the back." Mr. Ji Er lowered his head to read the file.

Ji Xiaotang slowly stood up, hesitating and not wanting to leave. What was wrong?

A servant came in outside and reported that it was Jiang Qingshan who had arrived.

"Let him come in." Master Ji Er said immediately, "It should be your grandfather's little statue that has been framed."

"Dad, then I'll stay here, too." Ji Xiaotang said hurriedly.

"good."

In a while, the servant led Jiang Qingshan to come.

Jiang Xinglong also came with Jiang Qingshan.

Jiang Qingshan was indeed here to deliver the framed small statue.

"...Is the work that makes people go to work overnight? Are the second uncle and the third sister still satisfied? If they are not satisfied, I will ask someone to rework immediately."

Master Ji Er was naturally satisfied. While putting the small statue aside, he let Jiang Qingshan and Jiang Xinglong sit down and talk.

Unlike Jiang Qingshan, Jiang Xinglong seems a little restrained by Master Ji Er. He is just sixteen years old this year, but he is tall and strong, and looks like he is ten years old. He is like his father Jiang Qingshan, with a black and red face, and his eyes are small and bright.

"I heard that his little grandfather was taking someone to practice martial arts, so I told me that I also wanted to learn some fists and kicks." Jiang Qingshan pointed at Jiang Xinglong and said to Master Ji Er, "Uncle II also knows that this child has liked to follow his little grandfather since he was a child."

"Learning fists and feet is still a trivial matter. He has no other ability, he is just a thick skin. He follows his young grandfather and serves in front of his horse. When he encounters things, he makes a cushion to block fists and feet, and is definitely more loyal than others."

Jiang Xinglong wants to practice martial arts with Master Ji San.

Jiang Qingshan failed to install a martial artist, so he changed his mind and wanted to install Jiang Xinglong into Ji Mansion to Master Ji San. "≤,

"It's not good." Master Ji Er hesitated for a moment and waved his hand.

The bad thing is not that Jiang Xinglong came to practice martial arts, but that Jiang Qingshan said. Even if Master Ji Er was satisfied, he refused to accept it on his face.

"Second uncle, Xinglong is not young at all, he is not good at martial arts. He has no prospects at home. It is better to learn some hard work to strengthen his body with his uncle. It is better than having no business every day and making trouble with the gangsters on the street... Follow his grandfather and ban him, he might be successful."

If Jiang Qingshan said this, Master Ji Er was not easy to refuse.

"Oh..." But Master Ji Er did not agree immediately, but subconsciously glanced at Ji Xiaotang.

Master Ji Er still remembers that he promised Ji Xiaotang that the matter of Xiwu forming a guardhouse was completely left to Master Ji San, and he should not interfere casually. Now that Jiang Xinglong is coming, Master Ji Er thinks it is nothing, but he thinks of taking care of Ji Xiaotang's emotions.

Ji Xiaotang was unhappy because of what happened just now. If he agreed to Jiang Qingshan immediately, Ji Xiaotang would be even more unhappy.

"Brother Qingshan, you asked my father about this, because he asked the wrong person." Ji Xiaotang suddenly spoke.

"Oh?" Jiang Qingshan was shocked and looked at Ji Xiaotang.

Master Ji Er didn't know what Ji Xiaotang was going to say, but he did not stop Ji Xiaotang.

"The only one who can make decisions about this matter is my uncle."

"Xiaotang is right. I said I won't interfere." Master Ji Er immediately followed Ji Xiaotang's words.

"This..." Jiang Qingshan's most opportunity to change the person, he looked at Master Ji Er and Ji Xiaotang, and was quite at a loss.

Ji Xiaotang stood up from the chair.

"Why not do this? I'll take Xinglong to find my uncle." Ji Xiaotang said.

"Okay." Master Ji Er said.

Jiang Qingshan had already reacted and immediately smiled.

"Then I'll have to pay my third sister." Jiang Qingshan also called Jiang Xinglong, "I won't salute your third aunt yet."

Jiang Xinglong bent down and bowed to Ji Xiaotang.

Jiang Qingshan was happy, Ji Xiaotang took Jiang Xinglong over, and Master Ji San would definitely accept Jiang Xinglong.

Master Ji Er was also very happy.

Ji Xiaotang is willing to take Jiang Xinglong to find Master Ji San, which means that Ji Xiaotang has no grudge against the Jiang family’s father and son.

Jiang Xinglong will one day take over Jiang Qingshan and do things for the Ji family. If there is a grudge between each other, there will be a lot of inconvenience.

The Ji family is a lonely family in Qingyuan County. The Jiang family is related to the Ji family. The Jiang family and the Ji family are both servants and friends, so Master Ji Er wants to continue.

Ji Xiaotang led Jiang Xinglong to cross the courtyard.

Jiang Xinglong followed Ji Xiaotang with his waist bent, his face full of flattery.

"A batch of good silk has just been imported from Hangzhou from the West Street Satin Village. There are many new tricks. I have someone to pick and send them to my third aunt... A new candy seller has arrived in the East Market..." Jiang Xinglong wanted to please Ji Xiaotang.

It’s good that I’m chatting around the city every day, and I know so many new things. Ji Xiaotang didn’t argue with him, but I thought to myself. No wonder Mr. Ji San liked him to play with him in the past. Jiang Qingshan also said that Jiang Xinglong had no ability. According to her, Jiang Xinglong’s ability to play is better than anyone else.

"It's a pity that I can't go out." Ji Xiaotang said deliberately after hearing Jiang Xinglong talk for a long time.

Jiang Xinglong's little eyes lit up.

"The third aunt is going out, and it's not impossible, just the little grandpa..."

Jiang Xinglong had the courage to hook Master Ji San out for fun, but he didn't have the courage to take Ji Xiaotang out. But if Master Ji San was willing to take Ji Xiaotang out for fun, Jiang Xinglong would be very willing to help.

As he spoke, he arrived at the cross-agency.

When Master Ji San saw Ji Xiaotang coming with Jiang Xinglong, he was stunned, but he quickly calmed down.

"Please be with me, grandpa." Jiang Xinglong stepped forward to salute Mr. Ji San.

"Get up." Master Ji San was lazy, just as he used to look at Ji Xiaotang.

"Uncle." Ji Xiaotang sat at the table, "Brother Qingshan is here. Xinglong wants to practice martial arts with his uncle."

Ji Xiaotang secretly gave Master Ji San a wink.

"Oh...oh..." Master Ji San understood and laughed twice, "Okay, I was just thinking about asking you to accompany me, but I was worried that your father would not be willing to leave you."

"My father can't bear to leave anything else. If I can follow my uncle, there is no one who can't bear to leave." Jiang Xinglong was also happy to see Master Ji San agreeing so happily.

"However, practicing martial arts is hard, and you have no eyes on your fists." Master Ji San warned Jiang Xinglong, and while secretly blinking at Ji Xiaotang.

Ji Xiaotang smiled slightly.

"Xinglong, you have to think about it." Master Ji San told Jiang Xinglong not to be anxious and to think about it carefully when he went home, "I'm not just a joke."

"Grandpa, I've been thinking well, just want to follow you and make a fortune." Jiang Xinglong said hurriedly.

"Since that's the case, you come early tomorrow morning and we officially start." Master Ji San nodded when he saw Jiang Xinglong say this.

"My ugly words are ahead. They all think I am playing, and it's so hot for a few days. Others look down on me, so you can't embarrass me. Come on time, leave on time, and you can't slip away. If something goes wrong, you will be punished like the younger ones."

"Xinglong, you want to give your grandpa a face!" Master Ji San patted Jiang Xinglong's shoulder vigorously.

Jiang Xinglong agreed repeatedly.

After a while, Jiang Qingshan accompanied Mr. Ji Er to come.

In front of Jiang Qingshan, Master Ji San said these words again.

"Uncle is not a joke. I think Brother Qingshan should consider it again. If it were me, I would never come." Ji Xiaotang also said with a smile.

"I'm so grateful to my uncle if I give him to him. I'm just like my own son. I'm just going to beat him up. I really helped this child become a talent. I'm so grateful to my uncle."

"Then let's just say that."

Jiang Xinglong was settled for coming to practice martial arts.

Jiang Qingshan took Jiang Xinglong away happily.

"Xiaotang, why did you change your mind?" Master Ji San asked Ji Xiaotang.
