Chapter 289: An Old Lady Makes Trouble 9
There were three children in the Jiang family. The eldest son had gone to develop by himself in Capital City and had not been in Qingzhou city these past few years. Hence, only Jiang Siting and Jiang Siliu were left in the house. The Jiang family was considered to be an aristocratic family in Qingzhou City, which was why Jiang Siliu never needed to nurse a grievance in her entire life. Whenever she had conflicts with others in the past, they would usually only be small fights with those within the nobility and upper class. No one would call Jiang Siliu ugly to her face. So, after crying the whole night, Jiang Siliu went and looked for Jiang Siting. She huffed angrily the moment she walked in.
“Brother, I need your help to get revenge!”
Jiang Siting noticed his sister’s tear-soaked appearance but was abnormally calm. He had already heard about what happened yesterday. He handed a document to Jiang Siliu and said, “This is all the relevant information on Qi Qingyao. Do you want to take a look?”
Jiang Siliu flipped open the document and discovered that it contained Qi Qingyao’s information. What she knew currently about Qi Qingyao was too little, so she read through it carefully this time. She raised her eyes after a while and said seriously, “She’s a single mother with three children. And she doesn’t actually know who the father is?” This… isn’t this… pregnancy out of wedlock! Although the information said that she used to be a fool…
Jiang Siting pointed at that piece of information. “Exactly. This… information. You can make good use of it and release it.”
After Jiang Siliu was done talking, she immediately suggested excitedly, “Brother, get a few dozen men to make a scene at the gates of her home. Have them proclaim one by one that they are her children’s father. I want to see if Brother Lu Yan will still continue to play around with her.”
Jiang Siting heard this and immediately spat out his tea. “As your brother, I think that you probably shouldn’t offend her.”
“Why are you defending that vixen?” Jiang Siliu felt really affronted and wanted to cry again.
Jiang Siting went over and pulled his sister into his arms. He patted her on the head and said comfortingly, “Why would I want to defend her? I was just thinking about how Lu Yan had sat by and watched as you got into a quarrel with her. Not to mention, Master Lu—one who rarely eats out—still went out with her to Chunjiang Restaurant despite having been vilified by her. He even let a nobody like her humiliate you without stepping in. It’s f*cking inconceivable. Anyways, all of this indicates that she holds a special place in Lu Yan’s heart.”
Jiang Siliu was dissatisfied. “How special could she be?”
Jiang Siting let out a light cough. “Anyway, if I had been slandered to be labeled as a eunuch by a woman in public, I would definitely kill her. I would kill the person who spews such things at all costs,” he said, torn between laughter and tears. In any case, he would definitely not have further interactions with them.
Jiang Siting thought of something after a pause. Suddenly, a faint spark flashed across his eyes and he said with a particularly heavy tone.
“Unless…”
“Unless what?” There was still an ‘unless’?
“Unless he likes her,” said Jiang Siting.
“Ah?” Jiang Siliu was so surprised she almost slipped down from her chair. She pushed her second brother away as she looked at him disagreeably.
After making that conjecture, Jiang Siting suddenly felt that it was very plausible. “He likes her, and that’s why he lets her cause trouble. And even turns a blind eye to it.”
Jiang Siliu blinked. She looked at her brother for a bit before speaking in a tone that showed her disbelief. “But that’s not possible. That woman has three children… She’s a widow.”
Heavens knew why Lu Yan’s taste was so unusual. Jiang Siting also found his thoughts rather ridiculous. “If you say he is ‘unable’, then he’s sticking unnaturally closely to this widow. But if you say he is ‘able’, it doesn’t make sense that he didn’t retort when he was slandered the other day. Either way, I really don’t understand anything.”
Jiang Siliu looked at a loss. “Then, should I still take my revenge?”
Jiang Siting was also feeling conflicted. “If there really is some connection between her and Lu Yan, we probably shouldn’t offend her in the meantime.”
The rims of her eyes turning red, Jiang Siliu moaned, “But I just can’t let it go.”
Jiang Siting pondered for a bit, then said, “We can find a dozen men and have them knock on the door of her house to claim one by one that they are the father of her children. But it has to be done indirectly! The Jiang family can’t step in personally. If anything happens, it’ll be better to plant the incident on other people. ”
Jiang Siliu raised her brows in delight and said with a smile, “Brother, I’ll leave it to you, then.”
