Chapter 206: Cannon Fodder in the Confiscated Property and Exile Story 11
"You're slow, so whose fault is it?"
Jiang Yangxu took a bite out of both steamed buns in front of Jiang Yangyi.
“Jiang Ping is such a filial daughter. She knows that one steamed bun is not enough for her father, so she gave him her own bun. We have all seen your filial piety.”
Jiang Yu also took the opportunity to mock Jiang Ping.
Jiang Linyun also thought that Jiang Yu's words were well said.
The extra steamed bun he took was a gift from Jiang Ping to him out of filial piety, and he ate it without a care in the world.
Jiang Ping's throat was so sore that she couldn't speak, and she could only express herself with an angry look.
Looking at Jiang Ping's eyes, Jiang Yu thought, "Oh, even a little rabbit can get angry."
Was it when you knelt at her feet before, that was the expression in your eyes when you lowered your head?
So that's why Jiang Ping was so angry.
I thought little white rabbits wouldn't get angry; it's more fun to bully little white rabbits that get all pricked up.
Jiang Yu provocatively tore off a corner of the steamed bun.
Jiang Yu couldn't bear to part with any more, as she herself was hungry.
Then he threw the small piece of steamed bun in front of Jiang Ping.
"Oh dear, my hand slipped, little sister Jiang Ping. I was going to give this to you, but I didn't hold it properly and it fell to the ground. If you don't mind, you can pick it up and eat it."
Jiang Ping turned her face away; she didn't want to eat this kind of garbage.
Jiang Yu did it on purpose; if she ate it, that would be exactly what she wanted.
Jiang Ping would rather starve than eat.
But Jiang Yangyi picked up the broken piece of steamed bun and ate it.
Jiang Ping stared at Jiang Yangyi in shock. What was he doing?
Jiang Yu is deliberately humiliating them. Why did Jiang Yangyi go and pick them up to eat? Isn't he just offering himself up to be humiliated by Jiang Yu?
Is Jiang Yangyi really that spineless?
Jiang Yangyi looked at Jiang Ping's expression and lowered his head.
He knew Jiang Yu was doing it on purpose, and he knew she wanted to humiliate them.
But he was really hungry.
At noon, he was busy feeding his aunt and sister porridge and steamed buns.
When he wanted to eat, the food was taken away, and he didn't get a single bite.
Now, he hasn't gotten anything again.
My aunt and sister ate their fill at noon, so they probably aren't that hungry now.
But he was hungry, very hungry.
Even if it's just a small piece of steamed bun, he really wants to eat it.
The second wife seems to have found some enjoyment.
Jiang Yangxu also tore off a piece of steamed bun and threw it on the ground. He saw Jiang Yangyi lying on the ground, picking it up and eating it, and he laughed out loud.
Jiang Yangyi didn't care whether he laughed or not; he only cared about whether he could get food to fill his stomach.
By adopting this humble attitude, Jiang Yangyi managed to eat several bites of steamed buns.
Everyone finished their steamed buns.
Besides Aunt Wang and Jiang Ping, who didn't get to eat anything, there was another person who hadn't eaten anything at all.
That's the old lady.
The old lady didn't eat her last meal, and she still didn't eat anything at this meal.
But she was hungry.
I'm very hungry.
Sun gave a steamed bun to the old lady.
"Madam, these are steamed buns from the last meal. You haven't eaten all day, please have some."
The old lady looked at the steamed bun in Sun's hand, then at the infighting in the second branch of the family, and then at the first branch, who, needless to say, had been devastated by the order to confiscate their property and had been in a daze ever since.
Everyone was only thinking of themselves when they were grabbing the steamed buns; not a single person thought of her.
I didn't intend to leave one for her.
The old lady took the steamed bun from Madam Sun. Although it was from the previous meal, it wasn't hard, and she could eat it.
Unexpectedly, at this time, the one who was most concerned about him was the third wife.
She hadn't paid much attention to her son, Jiang Haoyun, before.
In retrospect, it was a good thing.
He might have to rely on the third wife during his exile.
I wonder if the third wife's family has made any preparations or hidden some money.
The jewelry worn by Madam Sun is so shabby.
Even this, she wouldn't even deign to give as a reward to her servants.
The third wife, surely she doesn't have any money?
Looking at Madam Sun and then at the steamed bun, the old lady felt more and more that Madam Sun had deliberately come over.
The next day, everyone was taken away.
We were all exiled to the same place and set off together.
Everyone wore bracelets and anklets, and the men also had to wear shackles.
Both Aunt Wang and Jiang Ping need care, so Jiang Yangyi is taking care of both of them.
As they approached the city gate, relatives from various families came to see them off with packages in hand.
The officers and soldiers turned a blind eye; the packages were delivered to the ranks before they could be put into their own pockets.
Representatives from the Yun, Zhao, Li, and Wang families came to see him off, and each family prepared a package.
Because many people came to see him off.
Everyone spoke their farewells separately.
Sun also secretly took out a package from her spatial storage.
With parcels, getting them out becomes much more convenient.
The incense stick's time is up.
The officers and soldiers beat drums and gongs to gather everyone together.
Those who came to see him off were all driven away.
We have daily tasks to complete, so we can't just linger here.
With the package in hand, we can set off.
After walking for an hour, many people fell behind.
I usually travel by horse-drawn carriage, how could I have traveled this far?
Moreover, she was wearing bracelets and anklets, so it took a lot of effort to lift her foot each time.
The first person to eat crab appeared.
Someone paid five taels of silver to have the soldiers remove the shackles and bracelets.
Men's anklets must not be removed to prevent any unexpected situations.
Women can remove both their bracelets and anklets. Once the first one was done, everyone wanted to break free of their constraints.
However, not everyone prepared five taels of silver.
Some people are unprepared, without even a delivery person, empty-handed and completely innocent.
This means I'll have to continue wearing the bracelets and anklets.
Some people questioned whether the officers and soldiers deliberately put these things on them in order to collect money from them.
The officers and soldiers offered no explanation and immediately began whipping the soldiers.
After a beating, they bluntly stated that this was the rule of exile, and that they were in charge of everything.
Including what you need along the way, just bring your sincerity; otherwise, don't even bother asking.
Several people die each time they are exiled.
Everyone in the Prime Minister's residence spent money to remove the chains.
Jiang Ping then discovered that they all had hidden silver on their bodies, including Aunt Wang.
Although Jiang Yangyi didn't take it, it seems he probably did.
She was the only one who had nothing on her body.
Because I've been lying in bed for several days, I don't even have a single piece of jewelry.
That's a huge loss.
When it was time to eat, the officers and soldiers would stop, cook a pot of porridge, and each person would receive a bowl of porridge and a steamed bun.
There is also a time limit; once the allotted time is up, regardless of whether you've finished eating or not, you have to set off.
Neither the eldest son's nor the second son's son went to collect the steamed buns.
Their packages all contained some food.
We haven't yet fallen to the point of eating this kind of thing.
After a day's journey, Jiang Yangyi was not in good condition.
Because Jiang Ping couldn't walk, Jiang Yangyi carried her for a while, and then he and Aunt Wang helped her for another part of the way.
Jiang Yangyi was also beaten, and his physical condition was not very good.
I'm exhausted again today, and I developed a fever when we set up camp to rest tonight.
