After wearing it: I traded a pig for a man.

Jiang Che was speechless; he had guessed what Jiang Qiusheng was planning to do.

Is the idea that you want to use other people's things to curry favor with yourself?

"Everyone, please help yourselves to the food." Jiang Qiusheng pushed Shen Yan aside, looking smug. "It's on me."

Jiang Yuning looked up at her, a smile devoid of any warmth or affection playing on her lips.

Jiang Che, who was standing nearby, saw this and immediately abandoned his idea of ​​stopping it.

He knew that Jiang Yun Ning wouldn't suffer a loss.

Shen Yan, who had been pushed, pouted and put his hands under Jiang Anhe's armpits, who was munching on ice jelly. He scooped her up and moved her aside, afraid that the crowd would make the short girl fall.

"Thank you, Qiusheng. Boss, give me a bowl, with extra sugar water."

"Me too."

There were more than a dozen people who came with Jiang Qiusheng. At first, they didn't really believe him when he said he was going to treat everyone, but they just thought they would give it a try. But when they heard that he really was going to treat everyone, they immediately started shouting.

Anyway, it's free money if you don't eat it.

Jiang Qiusheng was thoroughly enjoying the feeling of being praised, while looking at Shen Yan with disdain.

He seemed to raise his voice deliberately: "Shen Yan, isn't your family rich? How come you can't even afford to treat your classmate to a bowl of ice jelly?"

He had always disliked Shen Yan, not only because Shen Yan's family was better off than his, but also because Shen Yan was better at studying.

Even though he was more talkative and better at dealing with people, Shen Yan preferred to stay around that bookworm Jiang Qiuyu.

This made Jiang Qiusheng, who always felt he was more popular than Jiang Qiuyu, feel extremely aggrieved.

Shen Yan looked at him like he was an idiot: "Are you alright? Did you get heatstroke in the hot weather?"

Is it illegal for him to have money but not spend it on outsiders?

Jiang Qiusheng felt as if he had punched cotton, and the ice jelly in his mouth almost choked him.

He snorted, and seeing that everyone had finished eating, he put down his bowl and was about to leave.

While ice jelly isn't a meal, it can certainly help alleviate the loss of appetite caused by hot weather.

He had to hurry to the cafeteria, otherwise the coolness from the ice jelly would be gone if he went too late.

"Stop." Jiang Yun Ning put down the wooden spoon in his hand: "Sir, sixteen bowls of ice jelly, four coins per bowl, totaling sixty-four coins."

Jiang Qiusheng's eyes widened in shock: "You're asking me for money?"

"If I don't ask you for money, do you think I'd want your worthless life?" Jiang Yun Ning said with a smile, but the sarcasm in his tone puzzled the students around him.

In their memory, Jiang Yuning was always smiling. If they told her they liked it sweeter, she would generously add a few more spoonfuls of sugar water.

This is the first time I've heard her say something so awful.

"What's going on?"

"That person didn't pay. I just heard him say he was treating, but he didn't pay after we finished eating."

Jiang Qiusheng's face flushed red, and he pointed at Shen Yan in a fit of exasperation: "He doesn't even ask for money for his food! I'm your cousin! You're asking me for money?"

Shen Yan was taken aback. Why was it his business again?

"This is what I treated Brother Shen Yan to." Jiang Anhe, a small boy, popped out and stood in front of Shen Yan.

Jiang Qiusheng got even angrier: "He's an outsider, and you're inviting him to eat? I'm your uncle!"

"No! We're no longer related! And that day you even helped someone else beat me up!"

Jiang Anhe retorted angrily, "You even asked me to lie and deceive people. I disagreed, and you tried to hit me again! It was Brother Shen Yan who helped me!"

Shen Yan nodded, looking like he was enjoying the drama: "Yeah, that's right. I can vouch for it."

Jiang Qiusheng was stunned by the rebuttal. He hadn't expected that Jiang Anhe, this little brat, would be so quick-witted.

She's starting to look more and more like that brat Jiang Yun Ning.

"You're talking nonsense." Jiang Qiusheng refused to admit it. If he really admitted it, how would he get along in the academy in the future?

He was so angry that he reached out and shoved him, so fast that Shen Yan, who was standing to the side, couldn't stop him.

Jiang Anhe's small stature couldn't withstand such great force, and she sat down on the ground with a thud. Her delicate little hands instinctively braced themselves on the ground, and were scraped by the rough stones.

Jiang Yun Ning looked at his hand and comforted him, "It's okay, don't cry. Auntie will cook you something delicious when we get home tonight."

Jiang Anhe pursed her lips and nodded, rubbing her little hands on her clothes a few times before Shen Yan pulled her behind him.

"Whether it's nonsense or not, let's go ask Manjin?" Jiang Yun Ning stood up and looked at Jiang Qiu Sheng calmly.

But it was this indifferent and calm gaze that sent a chill down Jiang Qiusheng's spine.

"You! We're family, after all. I ate a bowl of your ice jelly, and you still want money from me? Aren't you afraid of being laughed at?" He tried to justify himself and steered the conversation back to the topic.

"Not one bowl. Sixteen bowls."

A deep voice came from beside Jiang Yun Ning, and she nodded in satisfaction.

Not bad, not bad, you've improved. You even know to stand in front now.

"Sixteen bowls?"

"Is this some kind of case of 'treating an enemy's food'? Using someone else's food to treat someone? Who is this person?"

"They look like they're from the imperial examination hall. I don't recognize them."

Teenagers are at an age where their sense of justice is overflowing. When they heard that Jiang Qiusheng wanted to treat them to sixteen bowls of food without paying a single penny, they were immediately disgusted.

The students who had been treated to a meal by him, seeing that things were not going well, had already slipped away.

They only came because Jiang Qiusheng said he was treating them, so they definitely wouldn't be paying.

Jiang Qiusheng's chest heaved as he tried to argue his way out of it.

"Sixty-four coins. Pay up, and we're even. If you can't pay up," Jiang Yun Ning looked at him without hesitation, "I'll go complain to the teacher."

"you!"

Jiang Qiusheng was scared. He gritted his teeth, took out a copper coin from his pocket, counted sixty-four, and slammed it heavily on the table.

"for you!"

He turned to leave, but then he heard Jiang Yun Ning's voice behind him: "Thank you all for speaking up for us. I'll treat everyone to some ice jelly, one bowl for each person!"

Jiang Qiusheng's legs went weak and he collapsed to the ground.

"Jiang Yunning!" He turned around and looked at the dozen or so people gathered in front of the stall. He had just enough money, no more, no less.

Through the gap, Jiang Yun Ning looked up at him, a chilling smile creeping across his lips. Jiang Qiu Sheng shuddered violently.

Jiang Yunning continued working quickly, serving up ice jelly.

She did it on purpose; even if it was given to these complete strangers, she wouldn't let Jiang Qiusheng, that beast who bullies children, gain the slightest advantage.

Because he had no money, Jiang Qiusheng had to finish his classes on an empty stomach at noon.

As I left the college in the evening, I saw a large crowd gathered in front of the ice jelly stall again.

At this moment, he was not just angry, but also somewhat envious.

If this business belonged to their family, he wouldn't have had to spend several days' worth of meals just to treat his classmate to a bowl of ice jelly.

When Jiang Anhe got home that evening, he took two vegetable leaves to feed the rabbit as usual. When he got to the rabbit cage, he found that his rabbit was gone.

"The cage wasn't closed properly today. It escaped and was killed by Big Black," Liu Yuzhi said.

Jiang Anhe burst into tears.

He had raised this rabbit for a very long time, and he had developed a deep affection for it.

Jiang Yuntian and Liu Yuzhi were too busy laughing to even try to comfort him.

"Don't cry." Jiang Che squatted down and wiped away his tears. "Your uncle will go catch one for you again in a while."

Jiang Anhe opened her eyes, buried her little head in his arms, and continued to cry loudly.

"It's nothing," Jiang Yuntian waved his hand cheerfully, "You'll feel better after crying for a while."

He cried like that when he was a child, he raised chicks, and when they grew up, the adults killed them for meat.

Most children have had this experience.

But Jiang Che didn't know that he simply thought Jiang Anhe was crying pitifully and was very sad.

His heart ached from her crying.

Jiang Anhe was the first person, besides Jiang Yunning, to show him kindness after he became a slave.

Although he is only a five-year-old child.

But he always remembered.

What's more, Jiang Anhe kept calling him "uncle" afterwards.

In the kitchen, Jiang Yuning was stir-frying rabbit meat. The aroma of pungent chili peppers was so strong that the Jiang family members in the yard couldn't help but sniff the air.

"Waaah... It smells so good!" Jiang Anhe cried while sniffing the aroma. "Uncle, let's go inside and take a look."
