When the women received the desserts, they could not stop smiling. “We knew that Jiang Si is the most promising. When your family gave birth to several sons in a row, we could tell at a glance that Jiang Si was different from the rest. He was born to study.” Several women took the things and fought to say good things one by one. Yang Fen smiled when she heard this, but Jiang Zhi snorted coldly in the room. The whole family tightened their belts to let Jiang si study, how could Jiang Si not be good?

“Dad was waiting for you guys to come and spend the Mid-Autumn Festival together yesterday. Why didn’t you guys come? He made us wait for an entire night.” The person who spoke outside the door was someone from the Jiang family’s old residence. Her name was Tian Hong, and she could be considered Jiang Guoyou’s younger brother’s wife.

The Jiang family was not considered prosperous. JiangGguoyou’s younger sister had long been married off. At the old residence were Jiang Guoyou’s father and stepmother, as well as a few sons that his stepmothers had given birth to. However, they had never been close to Jiang Guoyou. When the family moved out, Jiang Guoyou left the family with almost nothing. Tian Hong had probably come to the Jiang family now because she had heard the news that the butler of the Zhao family had given the Jiang family gifts and wanted to take advantage of it.

“Mother! There’s a rabbit, look, there are two rabbits!” A girl’s voice cried out in surprise. Before Yang Fen could speak, she ran over and held the two rabbits in her arms. Although the rabbits were not big, they were enough for two meals. Jiang Lin was 11 years old this year, but she ate until she was chubby. Other children were chubby and cute, but Jiang Lin was just chubby. Jiang Lin used to bully Jiang Xi, and the original owner of this body had been beaten up by her many times.

“Jiang Lin, hurry up and thank your aunt. Take these two bunnies back and I’ll raise them for you. Your grandma also has a litter of rabbits at home, and there are more than ten rabbits in the litter.” Tian Hong smiled and instantly blocked Yang Fen’s unspoken words. Jiang Lin’s grandmother only allowed them to kill one rabbit during the new year. On normal days, no one was allowed to even touch it.

“If Sister Jiang Lin likes them, I’ll give them to you.” Jiang Si frowned. However, the first thing he said was to give the rabbits away. Of course, he had no idea that the two rabbits belonged to Jiang Xi. He must be tired of living if he dared to touch Jiang Xi’s things!

Jiang Xi stood silently at the door and stared at the rabbits without saying a word. However, the gloomy aura around her made everyone notice her. Jiang Si shivered as he recalled the scene where Jiang Xi pointed at the wild boar and asked him to talk to it. The wild boar next to her, for some reason, seemed to know what she was thinking. It raised its head and looked at Jiang Si, which sent a chill down Jiang Si’s back.

“Jiang Xi, you’re so scary. You don’t even make a sound when you walk. By the way, I have an unmarried nephew. Don’t worry, he’s excellent in every way, but he’s a little older.” Tian Hong said with a smile.

“Then why don’t you marry your daughter to him?” Jiang Xi did not even bother to move her eyes. Her words silenced Tian Hong, and the women around her who were watching the show also burst into laughter.

“Alright, I won’t talk to you anymore. Anyway, father asked you to come to the old house tonight. I’ll take the rabbits first.” Tian Hong’s eyes swept across the pile of gifts next to the wild boar. Then, she left with Jiang Lin, but she was thinking about how to get those gifts. Although they had separated from the family, Jiang Guoyou was still very soft-hearted toward his father. Jiang Guoyou was also the head of the family. As long as he agreed, those things would belong to them. Tian Hong thought happily. She did not expect that the position of the head of the Jiang family would change so soon.

“Yang Fen, tell your Jiang Guoyou to keep his mouth shut. Don’t always give all the good things to the people from the old residence. You still have a son and daughter who are not married yet.” A few women at the door kindly reminded Yang Fen, and Yang Fen nodded to show that she understood. After sending the women away, Yang Fen thought to herself that she should ask Jiang Guoyou to keep his mouth shut. They would not even be able to touch the things that the Zhao family had sent!

Thinking of this, Yang Fen glanced at Jiang Xi and saw that she was looking gloomily into the distance, in the direction where she had disappeared. After a short while, Jiang Xi looked away and said to Jiang Shan, “Third brother, can you get me a big rabbit cage? our rabbit is about to spread its branches and leaves.”

In the evening, Jiang Xi’s family was ready to go to the old house. Since the separation, the two sides had basically not contacted each other. Except for visiting each other during New Year’s and festivals, they did not disturb each other most of the time.
