When these words were spoken, the onlookers were stunned.

Especially the Liu family.

She could never have imagined that the person who gave Jiang Yan'er advice was Jiang Lian'er.

Seeing her confused face, Jiang Wan sneered and said, "Second Aunt, if you don't believe me, go to the prison and ask Jiang Yan'er yourself."

After that, she turned to the Xie Dazhu brothers and said, "Brother Dazhu, kick them out. They are not welcome here."

The Xie Dazhu brothers followed his instructions and went forward to chase the people away.

Boss Liu and the Li family struggled and were driven out of the house, while Mrs. Liu was kicked out in a daze before she could come to her senses.

Liu Erzhu took out a handful of melon seeds and candies from his arms and distributed them to the villagers who were watching the fun at the door.

"It's New Year's Day, I'm sorry to make you laugh, come on, eat some melon seeds and candy!"

When the villagers saw that he was holding delicious candies, they rushed over to grab them and almost tore Xie Erzhu's cotton coat to pieces.

Someone threw a candy into his mouth and said with a smile: "Oh, this is maltose. Erzhu, you are really generous. You actually gave us maltose to eat!"

Maltose is more expensive than maltose, and the villagers usually eat maltose.

Now that Xie Erzhu distributed maltose to the villagers, it was natural for him to praise him.

"Hey, these melon seeds are sweet, not just white! Brother Erzhu, is your family going to be rich? Are you willing to give away such good melon seeds and sugar?"

"You're blind, you don't know yet? Erzhu used to go to town with his mother and wife to do business. You don't even know how good that business is!"

"What? There is such a thing? Brother Erzhu, what business does your family have? Can you take me with you? We grew up together. You can't just become rich and leave us poor brothers behind!"

"Erzhu, give me some more maltose. I'll take it back for my grandson."

"Dazhu, give me some more melon seeds. You are so stingy..."

Originally, the Xie Dazhu brothers wanted to scatter some melon seeds and candies to drive people away, but they didn't expect that instead of driving people away, more and more people gathered.

They all stretched out their hands and asked the two for snacks.

Seeing this, Fourth Aunt Xie wanted to step forward and say a few words, but Jiang Wan stopped her, "Fourth Aunt, go get some more melon seeds and candies. They just spoke for me. Besides, it's New Year's Day, why should I feel sorry for those melon seeds and candies? Just think of it as spreading the good cheer."

Fourth Aunt Xie couldn't help but admire her broad-mindedness and said, "Okay, I'll do as you say, niece-in-law!"

After saying that, she asked Juhua to go into the main room to get a plate of snacks, and then she started distributing them to the villagers at the gate of the courtyard.

When the villagers saw that there were plenty of snacks to eat, they were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling.

Those young wives who spoke ill of Jiang Wan also wanted to take advantage of the chaos to grab some melon seeds and maltose, but they were glared at fiercely by Fourth Aunt Xie.

When the villagers nearby saw this, they began to criticize the young wives for gossiping and being jealous of others. They made them blush and run away in panic.

Boss Liu and the Li family followed Liu back to the Jiang family cursing.

Old Lady Jiang asked Liu, "What did that bastard say? Did he agree to save Yan'er and the others?"

Liu's face was dejected, and she murmured softly: "This is impossible, how could Lian'er harm Yan'er... This is impossible..."

When Old Lady Jiang heard her mention Jiang Lian'er, she frowned and asked, "What does this have to do with Lian'er?"

Liu still couldn't believe it and remained in a daze, not coming to her senses.

Liu Lao Da and the Li family members beside her could no longer hold back. Liu Lao Da kicked the door of the main hall and spat, "That Jiang Wan said that it was Jiang Lian'er who instigated Jiang Yan'er to kidnap the child. Jiang Yan'er admitted it herself in prison! Mother Jiang, today I don't care whether it was your eldest granddaughter or your third granddaughter who harmed my Er Shun. Anyway, he got into trouble after coming to your house. I will only ask your Jiang family for him! If you can't hand him over, you have to pay me money!"

The Li family members echoed: "Yes! If you can't hand over the person, you have to pay the money!"

When Old Mrs. Jiang heard that they were asking for money, her face turned blue with anger.

Now that the shops in the town are closed, and the eldest and second sons have separated, their lives are not as comfortable as before. She is very careful with every penny she spends, so how could she be willing to take money?

She immediately retorted, "Bah! Wishful thinking! The sons of your two families committed crimes and went to jail. What does that have to do with my Jiang family? My eldest granddaughter is very kind. How could she harm her own sisters?! Don't get angry at that little beast Jiang Wan and then turn around and vent your anger on my eldest granddaughter!"

Boss Liu and the Li family were so angry that they took turns to have verbal fights with Old Lady Jiang.

In the end, Liu Lao Da's family was so angry that they started to fight.

Boss Jiang and his companions who were hiding in the house watching the fun couldn't bear it anymore.

After all, Old Mrs. Jiang is still the son of Old Mr. Jiang. If Old Mrs. Jiang is beaten up, he, the eldest son, will definitely be scolded.

When Boss Jiang came out to mediate, Liu rushed forward, grabbed his arm, stared at him, and asked through gritted teeth, "Brother, Jiang Wan said that Yan'er admitted that it was Lian'er who instigated her to kidnap the child. Is this true?!"

Boss Jiang denied it with a sullen face: "Second sister-in-law, what nonsense are you talking about? How could Lian'er do such a thing? It must be that evil creature Jiang Wan who is talking nonsense to shirk responsibility!"

Liu stuttered, "But, she said Yan'er admitted it herself..."

At this time, Jiang Lian'er came forward from behind and said with a sad face: "Second Aunt, Yan'er is my biological sister. How could I harm her and let her do such a bad thing? Jiang Wan is a vicious person. She is deliberately trying to sow discord between our two families."

Old Mrs. Jiang didn't believe it either, but now Jiang Yan'er had committed a crime and was sent to jail, and Jiang Wan was disobedient and the family was divided, so the Jiang family only had Jiang Lian'er as a granddaughter.

Jiang Lian'er was also good-looking, and Old Mrs. Jiang was hoping that she would marry into a wealthy and powerful family so that she could benefit from it.

So she also protected Jiang Lian'er and rebuked Liu: "Don't listen to the nonsense that beast Jiang Wan said! If she doesn't want to help, forget it! Let's think of another way!"

Liu was half-believing and half-doubting, but she didn't dare to ask any further questions.

Old Mrs. Jiang and Boss Jiang both helped Jiang Lian'er. She was alone and weak, so how could she dare to doubt Jiang Lian'er again?

But she still planned to go to the county prison, see Jiang Yan'er with her own eyes, and then ask her in detail.

Seeing that they were pushing the issue back and forth and couldn't come up with a solution for a long time, Boss Liu and the Li family simply decided to stay at the Jiang family.

Anyway, the Jiang family lives in a big house made of blue bricks and tiles. They live here and have no shortage of food, drink and shelter. They are getting a good deal.

Old Mrs. Jiang was at a loss as to what to do with the two families, so she had to ask the village head for help.

The head of the village is busy buying New Year's goods, so how can he have time to deal with the Jiang family's troubles?

He just said, "You guys should solve the problems you caused yourself." Then he turned and left.

The head of the village turned around and went to visit Jiang Wan's house. He heard that Jiang Wan was distributing snacks in the village and most of the people in the village had eaten, so he had to go and share in the joy.

*

Soon it was night.

Jiang Wan rubbed his neck and stretched, and then he felt better.

She spent the whole afternoon chatting with the villagers and ate all the melon seed shells on the ground.

She was just about to pick up the broom to sweep the floor when Xie Lan came over with two red lanterns from somewhere.

Seeing that he was about to hang it on the main room door, Jiang Wan dropped the broom and said, "I'll help you."
