1488 Yang Lan’s Retribution (1)
Grandpa Jiang couldn’t wait. Father Jiang’s anger subsided at the kid’s words. He then heard this brat push his luck. “Grandpa, do my clothes look good? Aren’t they stylish?”
Father Jiang was about to curse, when he heard his father lie through his teeth. “They look good! They look good. My grandson looks good in anything!”
The corners of Father Jiang’s mouth twitched fiercely. He couldn’t deal with this kid anymore.
Fortunately, the old man changed the subject and continued, “But, good grandson, just wear this kind of clothes at home in the future. Don’t wear them outside!”
Only then did Father Jiang heave a sigh of relief. Otherwise, given the old man’s support and indulgence, he was really worried that this rascal would come downstairs naked in his underwear one day and ask them if it was stylish. As a father, he would really vomit blood in anger.
Jiang Duo was also someone who knew when to stop. He knew that if he continued to push his luck, the stick his father was holding might fall on him.
Jiang Duo was still a little afraid of his father. He felt that his father’s temper had changed on the surface, but in fact, he was still very difficult to deal with.
At that moment, Father Jiang thought of the good stuff this brat had bought from the Master’s shop and couldn’t wait any longer. He hurriedly said, “Brat, didn’t you say that the things are here? Hurry and get them!”

As soon as Jiang Duo went out, Grandpa Jiang couldn’t help but stand up for his grandson. He said angrily to Father Jiang, “Why is your temper so bad? Even my temper wasn’t that bad in the past. It’s just some clothes – how much of an eyesore can that be? My good grandson is already filial enough. Speaking of which, you ate plenty of the good stuff my grandson bought before!”
Father Jiang was rendered speechless.
The old man had always been protective, and now that the brat had indirectly saved the old man’s life, he was even more protective of his grandson. Father Jiang felt that it was too difficult for him to be a father. He immediately looked at Mother Jiang, but she was naturally on the old man’s side. She also felt that although her son liked to play a little, he was really filial and sensible. How could Mother Jiang bear to scold her son, Jiang Duo?
Seeing that Mother Jiang didn’t look at him and didn’t say anything, Father Jiang was furious. Not long after, he saw the kid come in with a box. He couldn’t wait to place it in front of the old man, and he said intimately, “Grandpa, it’s here! I’ll open it for you!”
When Jiang Duo opened the box, there was indeed a bottle of Nourishment Pills and a bag of tea leaves. The fragrance of the tea was probably too strong, and the box was filled with it. It smelled very good.
Even Mother Jiang, who didn’t like tea much, felt that the tea smelled exceptional.
Grandpa Jiang and Father Jiang were both people who liked to drink tea. When they smelled it, not to mention Grandpa Jiang, even Father Jiang couldn’t sit still.
Without waiting for the old man to speak, Father Jiang immediately sat opposite him and said in a much gentler tone, “Ah Duo, go and make your grandfather and father two cups of tea.”
Jiang Duo: …
Father Jiang was afraid that the old man would deprive him of the right to try this spirit tea. Without waiting for Jiang Duo to make a move, he hurriedly got up and went to make the tea himself. He said carefully, “Dad, I’ll just try it. I won’t drink too much. No matter what, this child is filial!”
With the old man’s permission, Father Jiang’s irritable temper changed. Before he made the tea, he said very gently, “Go, have lunch first to fill your stomach.”
Jiang Duo was flattered.
By the time he ladled out the rice and took a few bites, his father had already made the tea. The fragrance of the spirit tea wafted over, and the entire room was filled with the fragrance of tea. Even Jiang Duo, who didn’t like tea, couldn’t help but want to try it. He took a bite of his lunch and tilted his head, only to see his grandfather and father drinking tea with expressions of enjoyment. Those who didn’t know better would think that they were drinking some bejeweled wine.
Jiang Duo didn’t know that in the eyes of Grandpa Jiang and Father Jiang, this spirit tea was as good as ambrosia or jade wine.
Grandpa Jiang and Father Jiang had seen so much of the world, but they had never tasted such good and fragrant tea. The things in that Master’s shop simply opened their eyes once more. Not only did the tea taste extremely good with every sip, the taste lingered in their mouths and their abdomens filled with heat.
They were very familiar with this heat. For example, every time the father and son took a Nourishment Pill, they would be filled with this heat. They also knew that this heat was good for their bodies. At that moment, when they thought of the taste and effect of this spirit tea, Grandpa Jiang and Father Jiang looked at each other and couldn’t remain calm.
Even if the effect of this tea wasn’t as good as the Nourishment Pill, the tea leaves could last longer than the Nourishment Pill. In addition, the father and son were both tea lovers, so how could they not like it?
Grandpa Jiang immediately slapped the table excitedly. “These tea leaves are good! My good grandson was really smart to snatch them!”
Father Jiang was helpless against the old man’s indulgence of this brat, Jiang Duo, and the corners of his eyes couldn’t help but twitch.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThen again, the more Father Jiang thought about it, the more he felt that while his son was utterly incompetent, he had a certain amount of luck. At that moment, Father Jiang was drinking tea carefully and happily. He was in a very good mood, and his anger at his son just now was swept away.
If this kid gave him some of this spirit tea from time to time, Father Jiang felt that he could still be a benevolent father. Unknowingly, he finished the tea in his cup. Father Jiang was about to pour another cup, when Grandpa Jiang glared at him. Not only did the old man immediately put the bag of tea leaves into his pocket, he also pulled the teapot toward him. He obviously didn’t plan to let Father Jiang drink anymore. Father Jiang couldn’t help but panic. “Dad!”
“What are you shouting for? You just scolded my grandson, and I haven’t settled accounts with you yet. This is all from my good grandson. I already gave you a cup. If you dare act up in front of my grandson again, don’t blame me for being unreasonable.” After scolding him, Grandpa Jiang immediately picked up the teapot, covered his pocket, and walked upstairs to the study. No matter how Father Jiang shouted and begged behind him, the old man refused to listen to him.
Jiang Duo snorted coldly when he saw his father’s wretched appearance. Afraid that his father would rain down fire on his head, he hurriedly ate a few mouthfuls of rice before preparing to run away.
Before he could do so, Father Jiang suddenly called out to him, as gentle as could be. He took the initiative to transfer a sum of money to his son before Jiang Duo asked for it, and even asked if this kid had enough money.
Jiang Duo: …
“Good… good son, it was all my fault just now. Next time, help me grab some spirit tea from the shop and give it to me. Don’t let your grandfather know.” After Father Jiang coughed awkwardly a few times, his eyes suddenly turned gentle. However, Jiang Duo knew his father’s character, and he shuddered violently. He got goosebumps all over his body at his father’s words. He gave a perfunctory reply before he beat a hasty retreat.
But now, he finally knew what could restrain his father’s bad temper. In the face of spirit tea, his father could unexpectedly… be so spineless? It was too unbelievable!
Chi Shuyan didn’t know what had happened in the Ruan family and the Jiang family. In the blink of an eye, a few days passed. Whenever she was free, she would go to the hospital to see Zhen Yu. After confirming that Zhen Yu’s injuries were recovering well, she relaxed.
One day after classes were over in the afternoon, she went to the hospital again to see Zhen Yu. Before she could see Zhen Yu, however, Yang Zhi dropped a bombshell: when the Ren family son-in-law and Yang Lan were out shopping last night, they were suddenly splashed with a large bottle of sulfuric acid.
The man was a little luckier and only a small portion of it splashed on his back and face. As for Yang Lan, she wasn’t so lucky. Who knew if it was because she was too unlucky, but the sulfuric acid just so happened to splash all over her face. Her face was ruined, with at least 99% of it burned; apparently, her nose had been burned off by the sulfuric acid. She was now neither human nor ghost, and looked very terrifying. She had been sent to the hospital for emergency treatment, but while her life was saved, there had been no way to save her face. The corrosion on her face was so severe that even plastic surgery wouldn’t help.
Was this retribution?
Chi Shuyan didn’t expect Yang Lan to be so unlucky. She was too shocked and dazed. “Are you serious?”
