Chapter 499: 319 Plastic Brotherhood, Fourth Master exiled abroad? Jiang Mansion Taotao finally stayed in the hospital for observation for a day. Jiang Chengsi had helped with the hospital admission procedures before returning to the mansion, but he had not expected that, apart from the old lady and Jiang Jinsang, there were actually two more people, enough for a table of mahjong.
"What are you doing standing at the door? Do I need to invite you in?" the old lady frowned, still holding scissors, trimming her potted plants.
"No." Jiang Chengsi mustered his courage and approached. "Grandma, I was wrong." "You scoundrel, going out and causing trouble is one thing, but taking the kids with you, they are so young..." In her anger, the old lady gestured with the scissors, which were sharp and pointy, used for trimming plants. Jiang Chengsi flinched. "Grandma, be careful." "You still know how to be scared!" the old lady exclaimed angrily, slamming the scissors down on the table. "This tnothing happened, but if something had, how would you explain it to your brother and sister-in-law? Have you apologized to them?" "Um, my second brother ignored me." "He didn't beat you up, that's good enough, and you still expect him to talk to you? You know what kind of temper Yanting has," the old lady huffed. "Boy, you really deserve a beating-" The old lady had just taken a few steps when Jiang Shiyi hurriedly got up and handed her the walking stick. "Shiyi, you don't think I know what you're thinking? Lettell you, I've made up my mind to beat this boy today. He actually took the kids out to drive a racing car; I think he's gone mad... If you try to stoptoday, I'll hit you too." Though Jiang Yanting was fine, hearing that the little girl had injuries to her head and hands made the old lady anxious to go to the hospital. However, she was told that the old lady was too shaken up and should visit later. Feeling agitated at home, she definitely needed to vent her anger, and the only target was Jiang Chengsi! "Brother." Jiang Chengsi kept making eye contact with Jiang Shiyi.
He knew he could not escape punishment this time, but he had not expected Jiang Shiyi to show up. He glanced at the other two drinking tea and watching s; indeed...
In crucial moments, real brothers are reliable.
However, what Jiang Shiyi said next felt like plunging from the warmth of March straight into the harsh cold of December.
"Who said I chere to plead for him? This boy has caused such a mess; he indeed deserves a beating. I just think you need a handy object to take out your frustration on. He's rough-skinned and tough; you can hit him a few more times to vent." Jiang Chengsi's pupils trembled. Is this really what a real brother would say? So you handed over the walking stick for grandma to beat me? "Why are you looking atlike that? Don't you think you deserve a beating?" Jiang Shiyi looked at him with indifferent eyes and an even cooler voice.
Jiang Chengsi remained silent.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe old lady clutched the walking stick tighter, somewhat taken aback. "I thought you rushed here to plead for this little rascal..." "I guessed that he would definitely be punished by you. If he were to be injured or crippled, I am his real brother, after all. I could just drag him home, saving you the trouble." Jiang Chengsi: "..." Jiang Jinsang couldn't help but chuckle softly. This third cousin really was ruthless.
"Jiang Xiaowu!" Jiang Chengsi glared at him.
"You're still glaring at Xiaowu? You little scoundrel—” the old lady raised her walking stick and indeed did hit him a few times, though she did not use too much force as he was her own grandson.
And given her old age, after a few hits, she was panting heavily, unable to lift her arms.
"Oh dear, I..." leaning on her walking stick, she breathed heavily. "It's really tough getting older, I just don't have the strength anymore." "Grandma..." Jiang Chengsi saw she was tired and wanted to say something to comfort her. Just then, a certain cold, stern presence in the living room who had been silent all along suddenly spoke.
"Grandma Jiang, such violent acts aren't suited for you, I can take over." "Huh..." Jiang Chengsi's tongue tied in a knot.
It was clear he was taking advantage of the situation. As a friend, instead of helping him up when he was down, he was kicking him while he was down? What kind of brother does that? "Sure, you do it!" the old lady, aware that although these boys were friends, they loved to bicker and trip each other up, quickly handed him the walking stick.
The man, already imposing and fierce in appearance, held the walking stick, and his whole demeanor changed, exuding a ferocious energy as if he was ready to kill.
"Wait a minute, Lao Huo..." Jiang Chengsi started to panic.
His own martial arts skills were nothing compared to this man, who could break bricks barehanded. With his force and ruthlessness, one hit with the stick might break his spine.
He toyed with the walking stick, seemingly weighing how to grip it comfortably, and as he looked at Jiang Chengsi, his cold eyes stern and his voice low, he asked: "Any last words?" Jiang Chengsi was speechless, what a jinx.
"We have had no recent grudges, no past grievances, you're doing this because..." Jiang Chengsi cleared his throat.
"I remember you often drove around our house recently..." "Holding a grudge for that?" "Are you just realizing?" The cane never ccrashing down; had it hit Jiang Chengsi, he likely wouldn't have been able to get out of bed the next day.
The old lady scolded him once again, expressly forbidding him from going to the race track or street racing anytsoon.
"Grandma, I know I was wrong." "Go check on the soup in the pot. You're coming withto the hospital later. This boy..." the old lady sighed, "your brother and sister-in-law are already having enough trouble, and here you are adding to it." Jiang Chengsi reached back and touched his lower back; though the old lady hadn't hit him hard, the several strikes were still painfully tingling.
"Lift your shirt, letsee. Did I hit you that hard?” the old lady asked, concerned, as she noticed him constantly rubbing his back.
"It's nothing." "Letsee!" the old lady demanded coldly.
There were a few red marks on his back; nothing serious. The old lady patted his lower back, "It's nothing serious. What are you making a fuss about? You're so fragile!" Her firm pat actually made him suck in a breath from the pain.
"Con, I'll apply sointment." Jiang Shiyi got sointment from Jiang Jinsang and motioned for Jiang Chengsi to follow him to the restroom.
Soon, Jiang Chengsi's cries of pain could be heard: "Damn, bro, are you applying medicine or trying to kill me?" "If I wanted to kill you, I'd use schemical reagent that could make you disappear quietly. Why bother with all this trouble?" "..." Jiang Chengsi bit his teeth in frustration, "Can you be a bit gentler!" "Why can't you stop shrieking at every touch like a little girl?" "I..." What does he mean by 'shrieking at every touch'? What atrocious accusations! ** Hospital Since Taotao was hospitalized, Tang Wan had been staying to help care for Jiangjiang. During this time, the Xie father and son and Xie Tongtong had visited. They were all men of few words, advising her to rest well. "Big brother-" Shen Zhixian called out to him as he was about to leave.
"Something wrong?" Xie Yongqi, looking exhausted after spending a sleepless night because of the old man's hospitalization, asked.
"I want to transfer Taotao's household registration." Xie Yongqi nodded, "That's appropriate." Back then, the situation was complicated. Shen Zhixian had lost a lot of blood during childbirth and had been in an emergency coma for a long time, while the child needed to be registered, ending up registered under the Xie name.
"I'll have someone send you the documents needed for the transfer." "No need, I'll handle it myself," Shen Zhixian said, somewhat meekly, "as for my uncle..." "The doctor said there's nothing to worry about now, just waiting for him to wake up."
Even though Shen Zhixian said he would prepare the materials himself, Xie Yongqi still mentioned it to Xie Duo. Since Xie Duo hadn't dealt with En transferring a household registration before, he even went online to research it, finding myriad answers from netizens.
Currently, many people were watching the Jiang and Xie families, especially Jiang Chengsi, who, having caused the child's injury, was closely watched by many reporters. Seeing him go to the hospital with the old lady of the Jiang family, then leave alone with a grim face and drive not hbut straight to the airport. Upon inquiry, it turned out he had bought a ticket and directly left the country.
This led to the immediate circulation of news online.
"Fourth Young Master of the Jiang Family Banished Abroad." "There seems to be a rift within the Jiang Family; The Fourth Young Master is Punished." This was not important; what was crucial was that Qi Zeyan had lost his temper at the office today, which, although completely unrelated to Jiang Chengsi, was reported as: "Someone goes abroad, and someone loses his temper at the office." Qi Zeyan had been busy running in circles lately and had only learned of Jiang Chengsi's accident involving Taotao when he had a chance to rest, rushing to the hospital, looking hurried and frantic...
This was misinterpreted as: "Fourth Young Master Banished, Qi Goes to Demand an Explanation." Qi Zeyan was nearly furious to death.
Yet, according to reporters' research, the country Jiang Chengsi had traveled to was Country E, the scountry where Jiang Yanting and Shen Zhixian had studied, unknown to outsiders but clear to the Xie family. It probably wasn't any kind of "banishment..." Though Taotao had been injured in a fall, the injuries were not serious enough to warrant sending Jiang Chengsi to Country E, clearly not a coincidence.
