Chapter 188 Greed

  Qiao Zhao shook his head.

   "Then I'll take you back first." Shao Mingyuan naturally walked to the carriage and picked up the whip.

  Qiao Zhao was also straightforward, nodded slightly to Shao Mingyuan, and bent over to get on the carriage.

   Shao Mingyuan raised his whip and the carriage moved.

   Jin Linwei, who was watching from a distance, hurriedly went to report to Jiang Tang: "The Governor, my subordinates saw that the champion Hou and the girl Li met."

   Jiang Tang and Jiang Yuanchao, who were walking on the Huifu Road, stopped at the same time.

   "Is there anything special?" Jiang Tang asked.

  Champion Hou would come to him for that little girl, so it is not surprising to meet him.

   Jin Linwei thought for a while and said, "Champion Hou is a coachman for that girl, and I don't know where he went with the carriage."

   A look of surprise flashed through Jiang Tang's eyes.

The surveillance of   Jinlin Guards is actually not a special surveillance. It is too close to the Jinlin Guard Yamen, which only means that the champion Hou doesn't care about being seen by them.

   The dignified General Beizheng actually acted as a coachman for a little girl. Did the champion do so to further show his importance to the little girl?

   "Okay, back off."

   Jiang Tang and Jiang Yuanchao rode their horses and walked forward unhurriedly.

  Jiangtang turned his head sideways: "Thirteen, you go back and check to see what the relationship between the champion Hou and that little girl is."

   "Well." Jiang Yuanchao deserved to be a little absent-minded.

   Jiang Tang raised his eyebrows: "What? Have something on your mind?"

  Jiang Yuanchao returned to his senses and smiled: "Thirteen is thinking about the champion."

   "Don't think about it, when you get home, don't take it home for business." Jiang Tang dismounted, handed the reins to the servants who came up, and asked, "Where's the eldest girl?"

   The voice just fell, and a light pink figure rushed out, with a bright voice: "Brother Thirteen, you're back—"

  Jiangtang raised his face: "I know your thirteenth brother, your father is such a big living person, can't you see?"

   Discovering that Jiang Tang is also back, Jiang Shiran looked surprised: "Dad came back so early, what's wrong with today?"

  Jiang Tang raised his hand and rubbed the top of Jiang Shiran's head, and said as he walked in: "One good news, one bad news, which one would Ran Ran want to hear first?"

   Jiang Shiran winked playfully: "Can the good news make me completely unaffected by the bad news?"

   Jiang Tang took a deep look at Jiang Yuanchao and said with a smile, "It should be possible."

  Jiang Shiran took Jiang Tang's arm and smiled like a flower: "Then let me tell you the good news first, lest I hear the bad news first and lose the mood to hear the good news."

   "Go into the house and say."

   As soon as he entered the house, Jiang Shiran immediately ordered the maid to serve tea, and couldn't wait to ask, "Dad, what is the good news?"

   "Ran Ran Guess?"

   "How can this be guessed, and there is no hint."

   "It has something to do with your thirteenth brother." Jiang Tang likes to see the demeanor of his beloved daughter's youngest daughter.

   Jiang Shiran immediately looked at Jiang Yuanchao, reached out to grab his sleeve, and said sweetly, "Brother Thirteen, what is the good news?"

   Jiang Tang looked at Jiang Yuanchao with encouragement in his eyes.

   Being watched by the father and daughter, Jiang Yuanchao seemed to be carrying a thousand jins on his back, so he couldn't speak.

   "Brother Thirteen, you can talk."

   Jiang Yuanchao lowered his eyes and looked at Jiang Shiran.

   The girl is at the best age, her skin can be broken by blowing bullets, and even the curiosity in her eyes is so vibrant.

   However, she didn't worry about what happened to the girl she had disfigured.

   Jiang Yuanchao thought silently: Does he really want to marry his righteous sister?

   The righteous father is kind to him, and the righteous sister is affectionate to him, but why is it so difficult to nod?

   Jiang Yuanchao was silent for a long time, and Jiang Tang's eyes suddenly sharpened.

   Jiang Shiran seemed to notice something, pursed her lips, and stared at Jiang Yuanchao.

   "Ran Ran, I—" Jiang Yuanchao opened his mouth.

   In his heart, heaven and man were at war with each other, but he couldn't say a word when the words came to his lips.

  If you had never been moved, you wouldn't be so embarrassed; if you didn't know what love is, you wouldn't be so heavy.

   "I'm going to marry you for my father." Jiang Tang said.

   This sentence shocked the sky and shocked the two people.

   "Really?" Jiang Shiran was ecstatic.

   And Jiang Yuanchao, the huge stone in his heart finally fell, and there was a kind of empty pain.

   "Brother Thirteen, what are you talking about, is it true?"

   Jiang Tang said with a smile: "Your thirteenth brother is too excited, I don't know what to say. Ran Ran, is this good news?"

   Jiang Shiran Xia flew her cheeks and stomped her feet: "Dad, you're still smiling!"

  Jiangtang laughed and asked, "Ran Ran, can you hear the bad news now?"

  Jiang Shiran pursed her lips and smiled: "As long as you don't tell me this news is fake, just tell me."

   "Wait a while, let Thirteen accompany you, and go to the Lifu to apologize to the little girl who hurt your face."

"What?" Jiang Shiran was stunned, and after returning to her senses, she said reluctantly, "I'm not going. It was obviously because of her tumult that caused me to miss the shot and lost a lot of face. Why do you want me to give it to her? What about an apology?"

   "Ran Ran, my father has already promised the Li family, let you apologize." Jiang Tang briefly explained the matter of the Li family going to the yamen.

   Jiang Shiran blushed with anger: "Father, how could you be afraid of a minor Xiuzhuan?"

   Xiao Xiu's writing is terrible!

   Jiang Tang thought in his heart, and said with a straight face: "If Ran Ran is unwilling to go, then I will let you go in the thirteenth generation."

   Let Brother Thirteen go alone?

   Jiang Shiran gave up after hearing this, and reluctantly said, "Then let's go together. However, Dad wants to promise me one thing."

"What's up?"

   Jiang Shiran glanced at Jiang Yuanchao and pushed him out the door with a smile: "Brother Thirteen, you are not allowed to eavesdrop, I will only tell my father."

  Jiang Yuanchao was pushed out of the door, leaning against the wall, looking up at the sky in a daze.

   Is his marriage settled like this?

   Once, when he was still eating on the street, he would be happy for a whole day even if he had one more steamed bun.

   But why do people become more greedy as they grow up?

The father and daughter inside    didn't know what they said, and Jiang Yuanchao didn't want to ask, and paced aimlessly in the yard.

   After an unknown time, the door was pushed open, and Jiang Shiran happily ran out: "Brother Thirteen, let's go."

  The story that the daughter of the commander of the Jinlin Guard came to apologize to the third girl of the Li family quickly spread.

  In the private room where Chi Can and others used to go to Chunfenglou, Mr. Chi played with the teacup in his hand and squinted at Zhu Yan and the two of them: "Why do I think what's the matter with the two of you?"

  Yang Houcheng glanced at Zhu Yan and quickly denied: "It's okay, what can I do. Shi Xi, don't you want to go to Qingliang Mountain for a few days, when are we leaving?"

   Chi Can glanced at him: "Didn't you enter Jinwuwei, can you just leave?"

  Yang Houcheng chuckled: "That's the place to mess around. It's not that you don't know it, it's very boring. Tingquan doesn't take me with you, I can only mess with the guards."

   "Where has Tingquan gone? Every time I come, I don't see anyone else. Forget it, no more waiting." Chi Can put the teacup on the table and pushed the door out.

   The sound of the discussion downstairs made him pause.
