After her husband died, her parents came to force her to remarry

Chapter 272: Fooling Wu Xiong

As soon as Jiang Xiaohe heard what he said, her heart skipped a beat.

Chang Wei and Manager Chang immediately prepared for a fight. Jiang Xiaohe quickly adjusted her emotions and grabbed Chang Wei's hand holding the knife.

"Wu Xiong, I think you made a mistake?"

Wu Xiong looked at her and narrowed his eyes slightly: "Are you going to quibble?"

"Quibbling?" Jiang Xiaohe chuckled.

"Why do I need to quibble? Your father and I only have a small relationship. I admit that your father drove me and my followers out of the inn. We were indeed blocked by Old Wu on the road that day. But I paid him a lot of money at that time, and I also promised to come to the county town next time to discuss joining the Chamber of Commerce with him. Then he left."

"You're talking nonsense! My father never lets go of anyone who provokes him, so how could he let you go?"

Jiang Xiaohe clapped her hands, "That's right, your father didn't intend to let me go, but I said, I paid him a lot of money, and we also negotiated for membership. Once we join, we are all family, why would he still pester me? Moreover, at that time, there were only three of us, my servant and I, and we were all powerless. You said we harmed him, do you believe it yourself?"

"Is it really not you who did this?"

Jiang Xiaohe nodded very seriously: "Why would I lie to you? Think about it again. If it was really me who caused this, would I dare to step into the county town?"

After Wu Xiong heard what she said, he hesitated for a moment. After all, his father did take a lot of people out that day, and he also asked around. At that time, Jiang Xiaohe's group was only three people. If they were the ones who killed his father, it was really unlikely...

But he looked at Chang Wei and Manager Chang beside Jiang Xiaohe, but if these two were added...

Jiang Xiaohe saw him glance at Chang Wei and Manager Chang, and understood what he was thinking, so she continued, "That day, when Mr. Wu asked me to leave, I heard him say that he had something else to deal with. He said that person had been coveting his position for a long time and now caused him a lot of trouble. Could it be that something unexpected happened when he went to find that person?"

Wu Xiong's eyes flickered, and Jiang Xiaohe continued to make up lies: "He also told me that after I joined the Chamber of Commerce, I must stand on his side and so on. I didn't quite understand at the time, and now you come to me..."

"Just say what you want to say!"

"Now that you've come to me, I'm guessing that Mr. Wu had a premonition that his position was in jeopardy. So he wanted to win over the merchants and increase his power in the Chamber of Commerce. Otherwise, given Mr. Wu's position in the Chamber of Commerce, he wouldn't have needed to see a small-time idiot like me."

These words really touched Wu Xiong's heart.

Seeing that Wu Xiong had restrained his murderous intent, Chang Wei gave Jiang Xiaohe a thumbs up with his hands behind his back.

Jiang Xiaohe snorted in her heart.

Wu Xiong said, "When you get to the city, why don't you go to the Chamber of Commerce?"

Jiang Xiaohe spread her hands: "Old Wu is not here, who will listen to me if I go alone?"

Finally, Wu Xiong pointed a knife at Jiang Xiaohe and said, "You'd better be telling the truth. Otherwise, when I find out that you lied to me, I will bury your whole family with you!"

After saying that, he turned around and said to the people behind him: "Retreat."

Jiang Xiaohe patted her chest and asked Chang Wei, "Is this guy really going to kill my whole family?"

Chang Wei's tense nerves also relaxed: "He can do it."

what?

Jiang Xiaohe was a little anxious: "What should I do then?"

Chang Wei laughed: "Don't worry, just don't let that happen."

Don't let it happen? But when Wu Xiong went back to talk to others, he immediately found out that she was lying.

"Old Wu usually offends a lot of people. Wu Xiong only has some kung fu skills, but he didn't inherit any of his father's intelligence. We just need to find some people to pretend to be Old Wu's opponents when he was alive, and make him believe that this was done by someone else!"

Jiang Xiaohe nodded quickly and said generously: "Okay, I'll pay for it..."

Chang Wei was almost laughed at by her. He shook his head slightly and gave some instructions to Manager Chang. Manager Chang immediately nodded, packed his bag, got on his horse, and rode away.

"He's going to do this?"

Chang Wei nodded: "Okay, let's go too. The earlier we arrive, the more at ease we will feel."

Jiang Xiaohe quickly packed her things, got in the car and set off, thinking that when she got to the town, she would definitely go to the pawnshop and buy two good pawns to take back, not for anything else but to make herself feel at ease.

When they arrived in the town, Chang Wei said he would send her back to the village, but he never thought that Jiang Xiaohe wanted to go to the pawnshop to buy someone. When he heard her reason, he felt that it was indeed necessary.

It just so happened that he knew martial arts, so he went to help her choose.

Jiang Xiaohe naturally wanted it very much.

The boss of the dental clinic was an acquaintance of Jiang Xiaohe. He did not expect that the shop would receive a customer just when it was about to close. He greeted the owner with a smile and immediately sent people to find all the people who knew martial arts.

Jiang Xiaohe didn't know how to choose and looked at Chang Wei.

Chang Wei gestured: "If you can fight me ten times, you can leave here."

In a short while, two people were picked out. One of them was very skilled and was on par with Chang Wei.

Chang Wei nodded in surprise: "I didn't expect that there would be such a master here."

Jiang Xiaohe's eyes lit up and she made the decision immediately.

The boss' eyes were filled with laughter and he quickly took the two of them to go through the formalities.

One of them was very young, a man who looked to be in his early twenties, named Ishikawa. The other one was the master mentioned by Chang Wei. Although she was older, she was a woman who looked to be around thirty years old, named Qin Mei.

Ishikawa had a hint of happiness on his face that he could be bought, but Qin Mei had no expression.

Jiang Xiaohe didn't expect that buying martial arts skills would be so expensive! It cost almost forty taels of silver.

But I feel a little more at ease.

"Thank you, Master Chang, today. Now I have a bodyguard. Goodbye!"

Chang Wei laughed...

This woman is really good at killing the donkey!

After watching the people and the carriages go away, Chang Wei led the horse towards Chang Mansion.

After returning home, Jiang Xiaohe asked a few people to move the New Year goods from the car back to the house. Wang Qiuxia looked at the two unfamiliar faces and asked about them. When she found out that they were the people Jiang Xiaohe bought, she immediately felt distressed: "Why did you buy another person back?"

Jiang Xiaohe asked Zhang Qingshan to take the people down, and ordered: "Shichuan will live with you, Qin Mei and Qinglian will live."

Zhang Qingshan nodded and led his men away.

She then turned around to explain to Wang Qiuxia why she had hired two people. When she told her what happened in the city, Wang Qiuxia covered her mouth and said, "It's just a business deal. Why is it so scary?"

"Mom, this is nothing. As our business grows bigger, there will always be people who care about us and look after our house. This will give us peace of mind."

Wang Qiuxia patted her chest and finally said nothing more: "It's winter now, and they are wearing so thin. Mother will go find a set of clothes for each of them."

Jiang Xiaohe responded, "Okay."
