"Xinyang, are you studying?" Mrs. Chu came outside Jiang Xinyang's house and woke up Jiang Xinyang who was studying.
Jiang Xinyang hurriedly put down the book and came up to her, saying: "Madam, you are here." When he came to the Chu family, he only met Mrs. Chu once. He saw her when he first came to the Chu family, and he has not seen her since.
.
Mrs. Chu sat on a chair, pointed to the chair next to her, and said, "Sit down too." After Jiang Xinyang sat down, she said, "Xinyang, are you used to living here?"
"Habit."
"That's good."
After Mrs. Chu chatted with Jiang Xinyang for a few words, she suddenly looked at him and said, "Xinyang, I have something to say to you."
"You say."
After Mrs. Chu pondered for a moment, she said: "Xinyang, I was not embarrassed to talk about this matter at first, but after thinking about it, I still have to tell you."
Jiang Xinyang sat quietly and listened.
"It has been a while since you came to our Chu family. I have been observing you silently. I found that you are not suitable for our Tianjiao family. I think it is better to cancel this marriage. Of course, you are also a very good person.
Nice young man.”
Hearing this, Jiang Xinyang was shocked. Although he had expected it, he still couldn't express the anger in his heart. You are very good, very good, will you break off the engagement with me?
"You want to break off the engagement with me, why didn't Chu Tianjiao come?"
Mrs. Chu said calmly: "This matter is all for me."
The other party's coldness and indifference made Jiang Xinyang feel extremely uncomfortable, and asked: "Is this what Grandpa Chu meant too?"
Hearing this sentence, Mrs. Chu became a little angry. She felt that Jiang Xinyang was ignorant and was stalking. He thought that Jiang Xinyang was interested in his master's emphasis on promises, so he used this to save his marriage with the Chu family. Why?
To save the marriage with Tianjiao, it depends on the success of the Chu family.
"Jiang Xinyang, I can make the decision on many things in the Chu family. Forget about your marriage to Tianjiao." In order to put an end to Jiang Xinyang's fantasies, Mrs. Chu added: "Don't fantasize anymore in the future. After all, your Jiang family has now
It's broken. You and Tianjiao are already from two different worlds, and there is no way to interact with each other. Our Chu family is not a heartless family, and we will compensate you. After all, your grandfather and I have been good friends for many years.
.”
How could a good friend of many years break up their marriage like this?
Now Jiang Xinyang has completely seen the true face of Mrs. Chu and the Chu family. Now, doesn’t the Chu family just think that their Jiang family is ruined and not worthy of their Chu family, so they are unwilling? What’s disgusting is that this old woman said
It was so high-sounding that the Chu family was not a ruthless and unjust family, but she could tell it. Jiang Xinyang was filled with anger, but he did not dare to show it on his face.
This is the Chu family, and the woman in front of me is the uncompromising mistress of the Chu family. In order not to suffer, I have to endure it, and I have to endure it even if I can't bear it.
"Well, tomorrow you go to the accountant and get one thousand taels of silver. This money is enough for you to buy a farm in Zhuangzi outside, buy a few servants, and start a small business."
"Mrs. Chu, I don't need any more money."
Mrs. Chu was quite surprised. She looked at Jiang Xinyang and asked, "Jiang Xinyang, what do you mean?"
Jiang Xinyang looked at Mrs. Chu calmly and said: "My grandfather and Grandpa Chu made an arrangement for my marriage to Tianjiao. If I want to cancel the engagement, I will ask Grandpa Chu to tell my grandfather in person."
After hearing this, Mrs. Chu's face changed, she looked at Jiang Xinyang angrily, and said, "Your grandfather is dead, what do you want my father to say? I see that you clearly don't want to break off the engagement?" After saying this, he paused and said:
"Jiang Xinyang, you have to think about this matter carefully?"
In an instant, a strong pressure came from Mrs. Chu's body, making Jiang Xinyang feel difficulty breathing, her legs were weak, and she wanted to kneel down. Jiang Xinyang noticed this, stood upright, and said without being humble or arrogant: "Marriage is a big matter,
Xin Yang dare not violate the orders of parents and the words of matchmakers.”….
Mr. Chu looked at Jiang Xinyang angrily and thought to himself: "Afu is right, this guy is indeed a very scheming person." Then he said: "Jiang Xinyang, I know what you are planning, but I can tell you that with me here
A day in the Chu family's life, don't even think about getting any benefits from our Chu family."
After Mrs. Chu left, Jiang Xinyang held his hand tightly, and he didn't even notice that his nails dug into his palm. Although he was calm and composed just now, only he knew the humiliation in his heart.
The reason why he didn't break off the engagement was not because he was shameless and coveted the Chu family's wealth, but because he had no choice but to do so.
The Jiang family has heirlooms of poetry and calligraphy and is a scholarly family in Yangzhou. If his engagement is broken off now, how will he face his dead grandfather in the future? I am afraid that the Jiang family will become the laughing stock of Yangzhou.
Sometimes this face is not important, but sometimes it is more important than life. Now that he is the only one left in the Jiang family, he must defend the dignity of the Chu family, even if it is a humiliating dignity.
Looking at Mrs. Chu's back, Jiang Xinyang took a long breath in his heart to let out the depression in his heart, and said to himself: "It seems that I can't stay in the Chu family for long. Now I'd better study quickly and prepare for the coming year."
I will take the spring exam and practice martial arts diligently so that when I leave the Chu family in the future, I will be able to protect myself."
…
Perhaps stimulated by the breakup of the Chu family's engagement, Jiang Xinyang practiced martial arts even more diligently. In the past, he was forced to practice martial arts, but now he devoted all his energy and energy to it.
Under his hard training, the wisp of Qi slowly grew, from a small wisp to a small thread, flowing everywhere in his body with the movements of his boxing skills. The wisp of Qi flowed through, and the whole body felt
My muscles and bones are like dry fields that have just rained, giving me an indescribable feeling of relief.
Time flies, and more than a month has passed.
After a month of hard training, Jiang Xinyang felt that the aura in his body had become much stronger. He could clearly feel it every time it flowed through his body. Under the tempering of this aura, his muscles gradually became stronger and his bones became stronger.
He became hardened, his ears and eyesight became sharper, and his spirit became exceptionally good.
But recently, I don't know what's going on with his body. He's alternately cold and hot. When he's hot, he's sweating profusely. When he's cold, he's shivering all over. It's very uncomfortable.
This is the disadvantage of Jiang Xinyang’s practice of ‘Wanliu Guizong Boxing’.
As mentioned before, warriors induce the spiritual energy between heaven and earth to temper their bodies. This spiritual energy must be screened, and only those that suit their own constitution can be used to temper their bodies. However, Wanliu Guizong Boxing does not screen, as long as it is the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, it will be introduced into the body.
, temper the body.
This kind of training method, as long as the qi in the body becomes strong, it will cause the yin and yang to be out of harmony, and all the qi will collide with the body. In the smallest case, the muscles and veins will be severed, and in the worst case, the body will explode and death will occur.
However, as long as the alien spiritual energy in the body is properly blended, Wanliu Guizong Boxing can be said to be the fastest boxing method in the world. Just imagine, while others are working hard to sift the spiritual energy, you have swept away all the spiritual energy in the world.
Yes, the gap between the two cannot be measured by reason.
…
After a few days, the situation had not improved. Jiang Xinyang thought he was sick, so he left the Chu family and asked a doctor to take a look. How could that ordinary doctor know that this was caused by his practicing Wanliu Guizong Fist to induce all the spiritual energy in the world to enter his body?
Due to the imbalance of yin and yang caused by it, he was only prescribed some medicine and asked him to take it.
Jiang Xinyang left the drugstore and felt that after arriving in Qingzhou, he had not lied to this southern metropolis, so he simply followed the flow of people and walked in the busy city. Qingzhou is indeed the largest state capital in the south, with a population of millions, and high-ranking officials
There are countless noble people, it is extremely prosperous, there are many shops on both sides of the street, there is a lot of traffic, people come and go, and the noise can be heard for three miles.
Although Jiang Xinyang has been studying for ten years, he still has a young mind and was immediately attracted by the novelties at various stalls on the street. Just as he was enjoying himself, someone bumped into him. He was about to see who it was.
, and found that the man had walked away in a hurry.
"I bumped into someone, and he left without saying a word..." Suddenly, Jiang Xinyang saw a small cloth bag on the ground, and couldn't help but pick it up and said, "Hey, your stuff..." But the man had already disappeared into the crowd.
