Chapter 304 Jiang Zhi Is Bullied

Xie Mingan hadn't said anything yet.

The servant beside him widened his eyes.

"Ten dishes of each?!" The servant was shocked.

It was a cold season, and supplies were in short supply everywhere, especially food.

Even with the pressure from Mrs. Meng, the president of the Chamber of Commerce, prices of all kinds of goods kept rising.

No matter how rich their second young master was, he couldn't stand such a mess.

Xie Mingan frowned slightly and looked at Shen Ningning and said, "I'm different from my eldest brother. I'm an honest official and my salary is not much."

Shen Ningning folded her arms.

Her round face was delicate and lively, and her black eyes were like a pair of grapes.

She pouted and said, "Then why do you let me order whatever you want if you can't afford the money?"

Xie Mingan was silent.

"Can you really eat so much?"

"Just order it, who cares if I eat it or not?" Shen Ningning has always been sensible, but her attitude when talking to Xie Mingan was not good.

After a while, Xie Mingan was silent for a moment.

He turned to the servant and said, "Take my token, go to the bank to get silver, and buy this restaurant."

The servant and Shen Ningning were both shocked.

The little guy asked back, "Didn't you say you had no money? Are you a fake honest official?"

Xie Mingan was so angry that he laughed.

He leaned against the back of the chair, holding the teacup with his slender fingers, and his posture was noble.

"At first, I was learning to be a coroner."

"Coroner?" Shen Ningning tilted her head, puzzled.

Xie Mingan explained, "It's autopsy."

Shen Ningning's face suddenly turned pale.

Xie Mingan continued, "Learning autopsy is time-consuming, laborious, and even more expensive."

The common people all pay attention to the integrity of the corpse, and no one will casually hand over their deceased family members to the coroner for dissection and learning.

In order to have corpses to practice every day, Xie Mingan went to the charity cemetery.

"I said I wanted to be a coroner, but my mother was afraid, my father despised me, and my eldest brother didn't like me."

"No one in my family supported me, so I naturally had no money, but I just wanted to learn. How could I solve a case if I couldn't do an autopsy?"

"So, I first tried to make some money myself."

But later, I accidentally expanded my business and simply opened a bank.

But he didn't have time to take care of it, so he handed it over to someone else to manage.

Xie Mingan looked at Shen Ningning's little face, full of surprise.

He asked calmly: "Do you want anything else? Is there anyone you like on the whole street? If so, I'll ask the servant to take more money."

Shen Ningning finally reacted.

She jumped off the chair angrily: "I won't accept your kindness."

"Don't think that I can forgive you if you do this. I said, I don't need my second brother the most!"

Xie Mingan's face turned cold.

He said, "Don't get me wrong. I'm not asking you to recognize me as your second brother."

"But I did misunderstand you about what happened before. This is just to apologize and let you calm down."

Shen Ningning became even more angry when she heard this.

She walked to the door angrily: "I won't eat it, you eat it yourself."

Xie Mingan frowned: "So many dishes have been ordered, what should I do if you don't eat it?"

Shen Ningning didn't even turn her head.

"Open a tent to give away porridge and donate it. That's what I originally thought. Now, you decide for yourself, hum!"

She left.

The servant asked Xie Mingan hesitantly: "Second Young Master, then this dish, how about returning it?"

Xie Mingan dusted his robe: "What to return? Listen to her arrangement, open a tent to give away porridge and help the poor."

Next.

Shen Ningning found that whenever she walked outside.

She could always see Xie Mingan's figure accidentally.

He seemed to follow her when he had nothing to do.

He didn't come forward to talk, but followed her not far away.

Disappeared for a while, and appeared again after a while.

Shen Ningning gritted her teeth and tried to pretend that she didn't see him.

However, she could turn a blind eye, but the people around her didn't dare to.

When Shen Ningning was busy in the shop, Xie Mingan ordered a pot of tea and sat in the teahouse opposite.

The half-open window was facing her direction.

The people who used to come to the shop to take advantage suddenly became honest when they saw the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple sitting nearby.

Everyone in the capital knew that Xie Mingan had the nickname of the cold-faced king of hell.

He treated prisoners cruelly, but his slender hands looked very good when holding a teacup.

When he was holding a knife to examine the body, he didn't frown even when facing the intestines and internal organs.

Shen Ningning was not afraid of him.

However, she was very distressed that she couldn't get rid of Xie Mingan.

Recently, Mo Lingwei and Xie Suzhi were busy with the matter of Changliu Kingdom raising troops to attack the border.

The little guy didn't bother them.

There was no class today, so she thought about it and decided to go to General Chen's barracks to visit Jiang Zhi.

Shen Ningning didn't believe that Xie Mingan could follow into the barracks.

In the barracks, soldiers were walking back and forth.

From time to time, the sound of martial arts training could be heard.

Shen Ningning remembered that Jiang Zhi was assigned to the barracks of the general's mansion.

She usually went back to the mansion to rest at night and trained here during the day.

However, the barracks were too big, and she got lost while walking.

Shen Ningning had no choice but to stop several passing soldiers.

"Excuse me, where is Jiang Zhi?"

The men looked at each other, all showing intriguing eyes.

The leader smiled and asked, "Who are you? His sister?"

Wanchun shouted behind Shen Ningning, "What an unruly thing, this is Princess Funing, look carefully!"

Several soldiers immediately restrained their sloppy looks.

They bowed and said, "Jiang Zhi is next to the snow stream behind the camp."

Shen Ningning blinked: "Thank you."

She turned to find Jiang Zhi.

Unexpectedly, she saw a thin girl squatting beside the snow stream washing clothes.

There were several dirty clothes basins piled up beside her.

Shen Ningning was shocked.

"Jiang... brother." She almost blurted out the word sister.

The little girl ran over, and Jiang Zhi didn't expect her to come, so she stood up quickly with a happy face.

"Sister Ningning, why are you here?"

"I came to see you." Shen Ningning looked her up and down.

Jiang Zhi was actually thinner.

Not only that, her hands were red from the cold.

It was freezing cold, and the snow stream had already frozen.

So, Jiang Zhi was here, melting snow into water, and then washing clothes.

"Brother Jiang, aren't you here for training? Why are you washing clothes?"

Jiang Zhi seemed to have something to hide, so she changed the subject: "It's cold here, Sister Ningning, I'll take you to my tent to rest."

But Shen Ningning didn't leave.

"Is Brother Chen Shaobei making things difficult for you? I'll go find him now!" The little girl turned around angrily.

Jiang Zhi quickly grabbed her.

"Don't go, General Chen Shao doesn't know about this."

Under Shen Ningning's repeated questioning, Jiang Zhi was willing to tell the truth.

It turned out that Chen Shaobei took good care of her and let her live alone in a room.

But unexpectedly, this aroused the jealousy of the other soldiers.

They thought Jiang Zhi was not sociable and didn't sleep in the big bunk bed with them. Even when eating, Chen Shaobei would order people to give Jiang Zhi more dishes and soup.

So, Jiang Zhi was isolated by the soldiers of the entire camp!

During training, not only was she not allowed to follow, but she was also assigned some messy work.

Washing clothes, lighting fires, and cleaning stables are all normal.

And every time she finished these, she rushed to the canteen, only to find that her food had been eaten up.

The rest was either leftovers or only a bowl of soup.

Chen Shaobei was busy, and Jiang Zhi was embarrassed to complain to him.

Otherwise, with Jiang Zhi's violent temper, she would have taken action.

But when she entered the barracks, she found that General Chen's military tactics were profound and worth learning.

And here, there are also many opportunities to practice martial arts, which is the life she once longed for when she was young.

Not to be a bandit that everyone shouts and beats, but a general who can fight for his own merits with fists and feet.

So Jiang Zhi endured it again and again.

Shen Ningning was angry when she heard it, and her eyebrows frowned on her little face.

"It's unreasonable." The little guy went directly to ask Wanchun to call the manager of the barracks.

The manager was a big and strong military general who served as a deputy lieutenant in the barracks.

After calling him over, Shen Ningning briefly explained Jiang Zhi's situation.

And asked: "Do you know that these people are ganging up to bully Jiang Zhi?"

"As a fellow soldier, Jiang Zhi also entered the camp based on his ability. Why was he bullied by you like this? Does General Chen Shaobei know?"

The deputy lieutenant said in a rough voice: "Impossible, absolutely impossible."

"We are all a group of rough people. We said and did things that made this little brother Jiang Zhi unhappy, right?"

"Princess, the so-called not giving food to eat is also a fabrication. You don't know that Jiang Zhi has a big appetite and eats three or four bowls of white rice in one meal. He eats the amount of three people alone."

"No matter how powerful the general's mansion is, it can't support such a gluttonous soldier. Besides, we haven't said anything all the time. Why did he complain to you?"

Jiang Zhi frowned in shame and clenched her fists.

When she was at Shen Ningning's house before, she really didn't have to worry about food and drink.

She practiced martial arts every day, which consumed a lot of physical energy. She ate more than a normal girl since she was a child.

But Shen Ningning never said anything to her.

I didn't expect to be despised in the barracks.

Shen Ningning's voice was soft and a little cold.

"Can't afford to support the army? Well, you wait!" The little guy turned and left.

The deputy lieutenant narrowed his eyes and stared at her back in confusion.

What does Princess Funing want to do?

Is she going to complain to the prince?

But on second thought, the deputy lieutenant felt that there was nothing to be afraid of.

They didn't treat Jiang Zhi harshly. Whoever came, they could explain it. Let's see what Princess Funing can do!
