From a scholar to a villain, I was a good person at the beginning

At this time, a cough was heard outside the house.

A hunched figure walked in. Although he was thin, his face was full of wrinkles from time.

But his eyes were clear and bright, revealing only a little fatigue, not as cloudy as those of ordinary old people.

It’s Jiang Youcai.

"father!"

Several people quickly stood up and greeted him respectfully. Su Ning'er also raised her head and looked at the old man eagerly.

Jiang Youcai swept his eyes across everyone and finally landed on Su Ning'er. He frowned slightly and immediately understood what was happening.

Such scenes have been played out many times over the years. His face turned ugly, but he didn't say much and slowly sat down.

"Youfu," Jiang Youcai called his grandson's name.

"Grandpa," Jiang Youfu raised his head and answered vaguely, his mouth full of chicken.

"Why are you eating alone when no one else is eating? Don't you see that your brother hasn't come back yet?"

Jiang Youcai spoke in a low voice, very dissatisfied with his grandson's behavior, with a hint of anger in his voice.

"Grandpa...I..." he stammered.

"Dad, it's all my fault. I was the one who gave Youfu the meat."

At this time, Su Ning'er spoke up to excuse Jiang Youfu. In fact, it was Jiang Youfu who picked up the chopsticks first, and she saw that he had not eaten enough, so she added some more.

"Yes, Grandpa, she picked it for me. I didn't want to eat it. It's all her fault!"

Hearing this, Jiang Youfu quickly took the opportunity to say, pointing at Su Ning'er's nose, he looked the same as his mother.

"Asshole!" Jiang Youcai yelled, "Do you know that she is your aunt? You actually pointed at your aunt. Do you have any manners at all?!"

Seeing Jiang Youcai getting angry, he was frightened and quickly put his fingers away.

"Grandpa, I know I was wrong."

"Apologize to your aunt!"

"Aunt, I know I was wrong," Jiang Youfu turned and apologized to Su Ning'er.

"It's okay, Auntie is not angry," Su Ning'er forced a smile.

At this time, footsteps were heard outside the house.

"Dad, Mom! I'm back!"

Jiang Zheng walked in, put down the wooden barrel, held a handful of vegetables in his hand, looked at Jiang Youcai and said happily:

"Grandpa, Second Aunt gave me a handful of vegetables!"

"Zheng'er is back, let's eat quickly," Jiang Jiucai saw Jiang Zheng walk into the house, his expression relaxed and he showed a slight smile.

Su Ning'er and his wife also smiled and asked Jiang Zheng to sit down, while Song Caihua and Jiang Youfu did not look happy at all.

"aunt"

Jiang Zheng greeted with a smile, then turned around and looked around, and found that his uncle was not there. He must have gone out to fool around again.

"Hmph!" Li Caihua snorted coldly, still not looking happy.

Jiang Zheng didn't care and smiled slightly.

At this time, Song Caihua gave Su Ning a fierce look, indicating that she should fulfill her promise.

Su Ning'er understood, bit her lip, hesitated for a moment and then spoke:

"Dad, I have discussed with Dashan and decided to let Youfu go to the immortal mountain. It is also good for Zheng'er to study at home. Maybe he can pass the imperial examination and get a job in the future."

Hearing this, Jiang Zheng's body trembled slightly. He paused for a moment while picking up the meat near his mouth. Then he opened his mouth with difficulty, put the meat into his mouth, and chewed it slowly.

"Dad, you heard it. They voluntarily let Jiang Zheng give up. Let Youfu go. He will definitely learn some skills."

Song Caihua seized the opportunity and spoke quickly.

"Grandpa, please let me go to the fairy mountain. My brother likes to study and he doesn't want to go. Please pass all the treasures to me, and let me eat the food that the treasures eat."

When talking about what the baby eats, Jiang Youfu's eyes light up and he almost drools.

He knew that his grandfather had always asked Jiang Zheng to raise a treasure that only immortals could eat, but except for his grandfather and Jiang Zheng, no one knew what that treasure was.

He didn't know where it was planted, but he dreamed of eating it. If Jiang Zheng hadn't been tight-lipped and his grandfather hadn't treasured the magic herb so much, he would have wanted to eat it secretly.

Jiang Youcai put down his chopsticks, looked at Su Ning'er and asked, "Did you and Dashan really discuss this? Did you volunteer? Did Zheng'er volunteer too?"

"Zheng'er..." Su Ning'er turned her head and looked at Jiang Zheng, then looked at her man.

But her man just sighed and lowered his head to avoid her gaze.

"Grandpa," Jiang Zheng raised his head and forced a smile, "I volunteered, let Youfu go, I will study hard"

"Dad, listen! Zheng'er volunteered, so just let Youfu go to the fairy mountain!"

Seeing that even Jiang Zheng himself had given up, Song Caihua was delighted! She quickly stood up and put a large piece of chicken into Jiang Zheng's bowl, smiling from ear to ear.

"Zheng'er is still a good boy. Your love for you is not in vain."

"Thank you, Auntie," Jiang Zheng's face showed a hint of bitterness.

Although he still greeted her with a smile, he knew clearly in his heart that from childhood to adulthood, the other party had never loved him.

When I was a child, I was beaten a lot by my parents, and they hit me hard. They said it was educating me on behalf of my parents.

Many times at night, my mother hugged me and wiped her tears, while my father sat beside the bed and sighed with his head down.

The reason why they didn't say anything was because the couple felt guilty. They knew that their father had given the opportunity to go to the fairy mountain to their children, and they felt that it was their right to give in.

However, this made little Jiang Zheng suffer. However, Jiang Zheng had been sensible since he was young and had learned to be considerate of his parents, so he endured it silently.

But why can’t both children go to the fairy mountain?

The couple couldn’t understand why it would be so great if both children could go to the fairy mountain. They wouldn’t have to feel guilty about it.

But Jiang Youcai just gave a simple answer to this question. There is only one treasure, and there can only be one person who can go to the Immortal Mountain. Two people cannot learn anything by going to the Immortal Mountain. Only Jiang Zheng can go to the Immortal Mountain.

No one understood what Jiang Jiucai meant, but what they could understand was: only one of the two children could go to the fairy mountain.

"Nonsense!" Jiang Jiucai was furious. He broke the chopsticks in his hand and pointed at Song Caihua's nose and shouted:

"You really think I'm old and confused! Don't think I don't know, can they do it voluntarily?!"

"It's all your fault, Song Caihua! I told you to let Zheng'er seek the truth. This is a done deal and no one can change it! No one is allowed to mention this matter again!"

"Why? This is unfair!" Song Caihua shouted, "You are my own grandson, and Youfu is also your grandson. Why should you let Jiang Zheng go to the Immortal Mountain?!"

"Unfair? What's unfair about it?" Jiang Jiucai could no longer suppress his anger. "For these years, you three have been eating and using Ning'er's food and supplies!"

"You did nothing and enjoyed for so many years in vain. Did Ning'er's family say a word? Look, they are fat and strong because of the food they gave to Youfu."

The old man pointed at Jiang Youfu, his fingers shaking with anger.

"Now you still want Youfu to seek the truth. How can such a good thing happen in the world?!"
