The book has no strength, the female supporting role just wants to survive

Chapter 313 This slap has extraordinary significance

When Xiao Chuan'er heard Ji Xinhui speak for Jiang Tunan, she spoke with a bad expression,

"Sister Tunan is a relative of my aunt, so my aunt will naturally speak for Sister Tunan."

Ji Xinhui frowned.

"So what you're saying is that it's all Tunan's fault?"

Xiao Chuan'er lowered her head and said nothing, but her meaning was that she agreed with Ji Xinhui's statement.

"What happened to Nannan?"

Xiao Huaimin looked at Xiao Chuan'er and heard from her that Nan Nan had bullied her, but he didn't believe that Nan Nan would really do such a thing.

"Today I just wanted my cousin to take me out to play, but Sister Tunan said she would complain to my uncle and threatened me with the gift from the emperor."

Xiao Chuan'er covered her face with a handkerchief, but secretly cast a smug look at Jiang Tunan.

"Tunan, what do you say?"

Xiao Mingxu immediately started to explain for Jiang Tunan.

"No, it's because my cousin Chuan'er is being unreasonable..."

"What's your business? You only took one of my two sisters out, and I haven't punished you yet."

Xiao Huaimin just felt that this was all Xiao Mingxu's fault. He was the only one who wanted to go out and have fun every day. No one else would have such thoughts.

"Father, I don't think Mingxu meant it."

Xiao Mingli stood up to speak for Xiao Mingxu, but was answered by Xiao Huaimin,

"You don't have to speak up for him just because he's your brother. This kid is just spoiled. I'll teach him a lesson today."

Xiao Huaimin angrily beat Xiao Mingxu with a bamboo stick, and Xiao Mingxu was also thrown around.

"Father...Father! Calm down first and let's talk nicely!"

Xiao Mingli tried to stop Xiao Huaimin, but Xiao Huaimin, who was angry, didn't care.

"Get out of the way, or I'll hit you too."

Ji Xinhui said anxiously,

"Why are you mad at Mingli?"

Jiang Tunan looked at the chaos around him and suddenly burst into tears. Xiao Huaimin stopped what he was doing and asked with concern,

"What's wrong, Nannan? Why are you crying?"

Jiang Tunan said firmly with tears in his eyes,

"Uncle, it's all my fault. I treated Sister Chuan'er badly."

Seeing that Jiang Tunan actually took the initiative to admit his mistake, Xiao Chuan'er revealed a victorious smile, but she retracted it after seeing Ji Xinhui's eyes.

"What's wrong? Talk to your uncle."

Xiao Huaimin dropped the bamboo stick in his hand and pulled Jiang Tunan to sit down at the stone table.

Jiang Tunan spoke with tears in his eyes.

"It's all my fault. I wanted Sister Chuan'er to stay in the mansion and learn some rules first, but I didn't expect that Sister Chuan'er would misunderstand me like this."

Xiao Chuan'er:?

"How can I blame you for this? You have good intentions."

Xiao Huaimin caressed Jiang Tunan's head lovingly, relieving Jiang Tunan's emotions bit by bit.

Jiang Tunan said righteously,

"No! My cousins ​​are men after all, so some things are not easy to tell Sister Chuan'er in person. But it's different for me. I have passed the test of the most powerful nanny in the Xiao Mansion, and I am familiar with the rules of a girl's family!"

“Ah…ah?”

Xiao Huaimin was a little overwhelmed by Jiang Tunan's jumping thoughts, but he heard Jiang Tunan continue to say,

"Sister Chuan'er and her family will settle in Kyoto in the future. They will have to deal with other dignitaries in Kyoto. If Sister Chuan'er can't keep up with the etiquette and rules, people will say that our Xiao family deliberately spoiled her."

Xiao Huaimin looked up at the sky and said thoughtfully,

"It does make sense."

Ji Xinhui took the opportunity to speak,

"When Tunan first came to the mansion, I asked Nanny Jin to teach her the rules of Kyoto for a long time. If Chuan'er was so naughty outside, wouldn't it make people think that we were partial to one and not the other? So Tunan's teaching Chuan'er a few words was for our own good."

Xiao Huaimin nodded, and finally said to Xiao Chuan'er,

"Chuan'er, what your sister Tunan said does make sense, don't take it to heart."

Xiao Chuan'er was shocked. Why did Xiao Huaimin believe everything Jiang Tunan said?

"No, she..."

"That's right!"

Jiang Tunan interrupted Xiao Chuan'er loudly.

"I have too many responsibilities on my small shoulders. Although I am only one year older than Xiao Chuan'er, at least she calls me sister."

Jiang Tunan walked up to Xiao Chuan'er and raised his left hand high.

"Sister Chuan'er, I understand that you are unhappy with us today, but you should never disturb Uncle Xiao's precious rest time."

"Do you see this slap from me? It will land on your face soon. I am not targeting you on purpose, but this slap is really...significant!!"

Xiao Chuan'er looked at Xiao Huaimin for help, but saw that Xiao Huaimin also had a stunned expression on his face.

"Wuwuaaaaah, you all are bullying me! I want to find my mother, I want to find my grandmother!!!"

Xiao Chuan'er burst into tears. Xiao Huaimin thought of Old Madam Xiao and had to speak up.

"Chuan'er, Nan Nan is just trying to scare you. And Nan Nan, quickly tell your sister..."

What Xiao Huaimin didn't expect was that Jiang Tunan immediately started to scold Xiao Chuan'er, acting like a little adult.

"Cry, cry, cry! You just cry! All the blessings you have are gone because of you crying!"

"Then I'll tell everyone that there's a crybaby in our Xiao Mansion. See if you're embarrassed or not!"

"Look at other kids your age. Which one of them cries easily like you?"

"Ah, I am your elder sister. I am supposed to take good care of my younger sisters. Don't worry, I will definitely teach you well."

Xiao Chuan'er was completely defeated, she roared angrily,

"Who do you think you are to control me? You little wild girl, I'm going to kick you out when my grandmother comes!"

Jiang Tunan's face was filled with shock, and then tears silently filled his eyes. He looked very helpless.

"I'm sorry, my older brothers and sisters taught me the same thing. They said that older brothers and sisters raise their younger brothers and sisters in the same way..."

As she spoke, Jiang Tunan began to choke up. She lowered her head so that no one could see the expression on her face. There were only tears as big as beans falling to the ground. Her shoulders were shaking slightly, and she looked fragile and pitiful.

"Are the habits of the people in the Anguo Mansion so barbaric?"

As soon as Xiao Chuan'er said this, Ji Xinhui's face was instantly filled with anger.

"Xiao Chuan'er, although I am a wife of the Xiao family, I can tolerate the unreasonable behavior of people from your second house, but it does not mean that people from the Anguo Mansion will not care about your mistakes. If you speak rudely like this again next time, don't blame me for being rude!"

Xiao Chuan'er shrank her neck. In the past, Ji Xinhui always acted gentle and submissive in front of Old Madam Xiao, which made her gradually feel that Ji Xinhui was easy to talk to.

Xiao Huaimin remained silent. When Jiang Tunan first said those unbelievable words to him, he was actually a little surprised. But later when Jiang Tunan said that her brothers and sisters had taught her the same thing in the past, Xiao Huaimin suddenly remembered that Jiang Tunan was not a real daughter of the Duke's Mansion. She had always stayed in the countryside when she was a child.

Although he didn't know what the family atmosphere of the Jiang family was like, he could get a glimpse of it from Jiang Tunan's few words.

So it’s not that Jiang Tunan doesn’t know how to coax her sister, but because Jiang Tunan has never been coaxed by her brothers and sisters since she was a child, so she just doesn’t know it.

Xiao Huaimin was overwhelmed with sadness, thinking back to when he first met Jiang Tunan, she was still wearing clothes full of patches. At that time, she was very thin and small, with a pale face.

It's not that he doesn't know what kind of personality Xiao Chuan'er has, but his mother especially likes this child, so he indulges her a little. But how can he expect Jiang Tunan to avoid Xiao Chuan'er everywhere? Xiao Chuan'er has been pampered by the second room since she was a child, and Jiang Tunan is the child who needs his love and indulgence more.

Jiang Tunan, who had no idea what was going on in Xiao Huaimin's mind, only felt that the way Xiao Huaimin looked at him became more and more strange, as if there was a hint of guilt mixed with heartache?

If Jiang Tunan knew that Xiao Huaimin had already imagined a long sad drama in his mind, he would definitely say: There is no need for that.

Just when Jiang Tunan thought he had messed up, Xiao Huaimin suddenly spoke up,

"Chuan'er, your uncle used to indulge you because you were young, but now that you are of marriageable age, why are you becoming more unreasonable?"

Everyone present was stunned. Xiao Mingrui took back the hidden weapon soaked in anesthetic in his hand. Xiao Mingxu's eyes showed mixed emotions, including relief and envy that he himself was not even aware of. Xiao Mingli did not think too much about it, but was just a little surprised.

Ji Xinhui was secretly delighted, thinking that there was finally someone who could deal with the people from the second house. However, she was also a little curious about what kind of relationship Xiao Huaimin had with Jiang Tunan's father that made Xiao Huaimin put Jiang Tunan above the people from the second house.

"Your aunt and Nan Nan have explained it to you just now. They just hope that you will learn the rules in the mansion first. After all, Kyoto is not as good as your hometown. If you offend an important person when you go out, I can't protect you."

"If you have grievances, you can say it nicely, but what do you want to do by crying and shouting like this? When you spoke harshly to your brother and sister, have you ever thought about how they felt? When you openly questioned and insulted the Anguo Mansion, have you ever thought about how your aunt felt? Today is only your first day in the Xiao Mansion, and you have caused unrest in the entire mansion. Have you ever thought about how I feel?"

"In the past, it was because your mother and brother indulged you too much that you became lawless. Today, while I am still here, you threatened to drive Nan Nan out of the house. If I am not here, will you go even further?"

Xiao Chuan'er was frightened by Xiao Huaimin's serious look, and Xiao Bao'er next to her also said nothing.

In fact, this afternoon Xiao Baoer felt that Jiang Tunan was not a tough guy, so she encouraged Xiao Chuaner to cause trouble in front of Xiao Huaimin. At first they all thought they had a sure win, but they didn't know why Xiao Huaimin suddenly sided with Jiang Tunan.

"Great uncle..."

"Chuan'er, today I tell you that this Xiao Mansion belongs to me, Xiao Huaimin, and is not a joint property of Xiao Huaide and me. If you want to stay here for a few days, that's fine, but if you show off in my mansion, then please move out."

"You don't have to think that I'm scaring you. Even if mother and Xiao Huaide come, I will still say this."

Xiao Chuan'er was so scared that she didn't dare to speak. Her family had originally planned to live with Xiao Huaimin for a long time. If Xiao Huaimin really didn't let her family stay because of her, her father would definitely beat her.

"Uncle, Sister Chuan'er didn't do it on purpose. It's all my fault. I didn't hold her back. If you're angry, just punish me."

Xiao Baoer was the first to kneel in front of Xiao Huaimin, because her idea was the same as Xiao Chuan'er's. If Xiao Huaimin was really upset because of the two of them, Xiao Chuan'er would still have her mother and the old lady to protect her, but she would really be beaten to death by Xiao Huaide.

Xiao Chuan'er huddled behind Xiao Bao'er with her head down, not daring to speak. Ji Xinhui looked at the two sisters' timid expressions and did not intend to come out and speak for them.

"Alright, alright, all of you go back. You're just getting in the way here."

Xiao Huaimin's expression was serious and terrifying. Everyone held their breath and dared not speak. When Xiao Huaimin's eyes shifted to Jiang Tunan, his gaze suddenly became gentle.

"I'm not talking about you, Nan Nan. Go back and have a good rest. You have to go to school tomorrow."

Jiang Tunan: Ah, this.

Xiao brothers:...

Xiao Chuan'er & Xiao Bao'er: ╰_╯! !

Xiao Huaimin issued an order to expel everyone, so everyone had to leave first, especially Xiao Chuan'er and her sister, who left faster than anyone else.

The Xiao Mansion, which had been noisy, returned to its tranquility.

........

In Zhuying Pavilion, Wang Da was speechless when he saw the little kid who was only as tall as his thighs.

"Hey, are you listening to me? I need to check the news!"

Gu You pretended to be a big boss, but in fact his legs were a little weak.

He heard that the people in Zhuying Pavilion were all ferocious, ruthless people with green faces and fangs, who would kill people without blinking an eye, so he was still a little afraid.

"Kid, where are your parents?"

Wang Da suppressed his speechlessness and didn't know why his men let in a child of six or seven years old.

"Don't treat me like a kid. I have money. I'm really here to buy information."

Gu You realized that the person in front of him didn't really trust him, so he poured out all the valuables on him.

Wang Da just took a quick glance, and he was stunned by just that one glance.

There are all kinds of unique colored gemstones from Baoxiang Kingdom, amber and cat's eye stones that are well-known in Tujia Kingdom, and even coral stones that are commonly used by the grassland tribes in Wuhuan Kingdom.

Wang Da was speechless for a moment when he looked at the gems with various characteristics. Some varieties of gems here are beyond the reach of ordinary people.

This forced Wang Da to re-examine the child in front of him.

Judging from the material of his clothes and the gems he was wearing, could he be a child of a royal relative? But he had never heard of anyone losing a child.

"Whose child are you?"

A trace of guilt flashed across the child's face.

"It has nothing to do with you."

Wang Da pretended to be serious and spoke.

"Some of these gems are only found in tribute. If you can't tell me where they came from, I will hand you over to the government."

It’s fake. Zhuying Pavilion would never report to the authorities because then we wouldn’t know who the authorities would arrest.

"I...I, my name is Gu You!"

The last name was Gu. Wang Da quickly went through all the families with the last name Gu in Kyoto in his mind, but found that there was no one who matched his name.

Suddenly, he saw the patterns on the jade pendant on Gu You’s neck, which was unique to the Princess’s Mansion.

Gu You was a little anxious when he saw that Wang Da did not take the next step.

"Don't you take money from Bamboo Shadow Pavilion to do things? Can you investigate? Do you look down on children?"

Wang Da put away his suspicion and smiled politely.

"My dear guest, please follow me this way."
