Border Cook

Chapter 115 Letter of Dissolution

Wu Xiong was not afraid to go to the county government office at all.

Does that mean that this IOU is real?
But Jiang Zhuguo is a sensible and filial person, and he is also a thrifty person. How could he do something like gambling?
Could it be that in order to avoid marrying into the Zhang family as a concubine, Jiang Zhuguo had to risk being sold and sign such a promissory note with the gambling house?

Or was it that this gambling house was not a good group to begin with, and after hearing that Jiang Zhuguo had a father who was a scholar, they thought that he would be easy to control, so they misled Jiang Zhuguo?
……

No matter what the reason is, the debt is a fact that is set in stone, and as Jiang Zhuguo's father, he cannot escape it.

These ruffians had very legitimate reasons for pestering him.

unless……

Jiang Yihe thought for a moment and gritted his teeth, "Of course I won't go to the county government with you!"

Wu Xiong chuckled, "So Mr. Jiang also knew that when he went to see the county magistrate, the county magistrate would order him to pay back the money? It seems he is not stupid."

"I didn't go to the county government office because I was afraid," Jiang Yihe said stubbornly, "but it's just that there's no need to go to the county government office for this matter, and you shouldn't come to me to collect this debt."

After going around in circles, it’s still this sentence.

Wu Xiong found what he heard a bit boring, and thought that Jiang Yihe was really uninteresting, so he reached out to scratch his ears.

"It's just because I have decisively severed my relationship with Jiang Zhu. I have no relationship with her anymore. Her debts cannot be traced back to me!" Jiang Yihe said loudly.

Wu Xiong and the others looked at each other, and then looked at Jiang Yihe at the same time.

I have to say, this Jiang Yihe...

Enough!

For the sake of his own face, he wanted to give up such a good daughter and break off the ties with her.

Absolutely enough!

They have been thugs for many years and have seen brothers become enemies because of gambling debts, couples go their separate ways, and children sue their parents in the county government because of gambling debts, but they have never seen a father and son break off the relationship.

When many sons owe gambling debts, their parents will cry bitterly, scold and beat their sons, but after a fuss, they will still find ways to pay off the debt and hope that their sons can reform.

This was the first time they had seen someone as decisive as Jiang Yihe.

Everyone sighed in their hearts and looked at Jiang Yihe with contempt.

On the contrary, Wu Xiong, after a moment of astonishment and contempt, felt a surge of joy in his heart.

He was in a bad mood and wanted to find trouble with Jiang Yihe to relieve his boredom and vent his anger for Jiang Zhuguo. He never thought that he would encounter such a good thing!

Break off relations...

OK!

No matter how Jiang Zhuguo lives in the future or how much money he makes, this pair of conscienceless parents can no longer think of taking advantage of him. And even if Jiang Zhuguo stops being filial to them, it is only natural!

Wu Xiong was delighted, but his face was full of disdain. "Jiang Langjun, I am not a three-year-old child. You said you wanted to break off the engagement, but what is the evidence? You are trying to deny your debt and fool us with empty words, but there is no way!"

"Even if Mr. Jiang doesn't want to go to the county government office today, I'm afraid it won't work!"

Wu Xiong stood up and raised his hand, "Please ask Mr. Jiang to go to the county government office!"

The word "please" was emphasized very strongly.

The younger brothers immediately understood and walked towards Jiang Yihe, crackling their finger joints.

It was obvious that they were going to drag him to the county government office. The academy was not far away. If his classmates and teachers saw him...

The image he had worked so hard to build up over the years was truly going to be ruined in an instant!

Jiang Yihe's face turned pale, and he swallowed hard, saying hurriedly, "I have the severance letter as proof!"

This is what I want!

Wu Xiong stretched out his hand, "Give it to me!"

"I didn't bring it with me today..." Jiang Yihe saw Wu Xiong's face suddenly darken, and hurriedly added, "But I can write another one right now!"

Logically speaking, a letter of severance of relationship would be most effective when witnessed by village elders and headmen. However, considering that the severance of relationship between children and parents is not recognized by others, parents' orders are more important than heaven. Even if the letter of severance of relationship is written by the father himself, the county magistrate will recognize it after it arrives at the government office.

Wu Xiong straightened his body and sat up straight, "Write!"

Jiang Yihe did not dare to act rashly. He hurriedly asked the store owner to borrow paper and pen, then he lay on the empty table next to him and wrote quickly and eloquently, finishing a whole article.

After finishing writing, Wu Xiong picked it up and looked at it carefully.

Having been in the gambling house for a long time and knowing a few words from Han, Wu Xiong was able to recognize this handwritten letter clearly.

Jiang Yihe had been studying for many years, and his handwriting was very neat and pleasing to the eye. However, after reading the whole article, one could find that most of it was contempt and accusation against Jiang Zhuguo's unfilial behavior. In the end, he could no longer tolerate it and found it difficult to face his ancestors. After much deliberation, he made up his mind to sever ties with Jiang Zhuguo. From then on, the two had nothing to do with each other, no matter what happened, sickness or death.

Wu Xiong was so furious when he read the first half that he just wanted to tear the letter into pieces and throw it on Jiang Yihe's face, cursing him for being a heartless person.

But when he saw Jiang Yihe's name at the end and the red handprint he had just pressed, he suppressed his anger, folded the broken letter carefully, and put it in his arms. "Although I didn't get any money, I have something to explain to the shopkeeper."

"But in the past, there were people who broke off the engagement in name only, but in reality they were just trying to avoid debt collection. We are not stupid, and we will go to Jiangjia Village in a few days and ask the neighbors and the village head to see if what Mr. Jiang said is true."

Then he has to go home quickly in the next two days.

Explain it to Mr. Tian, ​​the village elders, the head of the village and others.

This matter is actually simple. After all, Jiang Zhuguo did such a thing. If he really allowed those debt collectors to come to the village, I am afraid that the reputation of the entire Jiangjia Village would be affected.

He sacrificed his own family for the sake of justice, and such a heroic act would surely be understood by those people.

Maybe she would even feel sorry for him and comfort him.

Thinking about it this way, this breakup is actually a good deal...

Jiang Yihe calculated rapidly in his mind, and said with a cupped hand, "Don't worry, this matter is true, I am not afraid of you going to inquire and verify it."

Jiang Yihe said, bowing again, "I have something else to do in the academy, I will go first, and take my leave now."

Having said that, Jiang Yihe was about to leave quickly.

Wu Xiong raised his hand, and his men quickly followed Jiang Yihe.

"What are you doing?" Jiang Yihe was stunned and angry. "This letter of severance has already been given to you!"

He has nothing to do with Jiang Zhuguo anymore, so why is he still pestering him!
"I didn't say just now that after you gave the letter of severance and severed ties with Jiang Zhuguo, the matter would be over." Wu Xiong laughed.

"You guys..." Jiang Yihe was so angry that he was shaking all over, "I'm going to report it to the police!"

Since he has severed the relationship, he will have something to say when he goes to the county government!
"It's a little funny what Jiang Langjun said." Wu Xiong still had a playful smile, "Let's not talk about it first. We just thought of escorting Jiang Langjun because he was a weak scholar and it was unsafe for him to go back to the academy alone at night."
