Chapter 14 Preparations for separation


    Doctor Li looked at the door, then at olddy Jiang. Other than the bump on her head,


    she didn''t seem to have any issue.


    It took a while and the olddy finally reacted. She covered her forehead and started


    to fall back in pain, letting her two sons support her. Even though doctor Li could tell


    that she was putting on an act, he still examined her from head to toe. In the end, she


    just took two doses of anti-swelling medicine and was fine.


    When the matter was over, doctor Li exined the currentw to Wang Fen before he


    left. It wasn''t just the Jiang family''s elderly couple who were present, there were also


    other people present.


    "Olddy, all the viges and towns have already issued clear instructions that


    marriage can not be bought or sold. To put it bluntly, this is human trafficking. If


    you''re reported, you''ll be arrested. Not only will you be arrested, but even the vige


    chief will have to take responsibility." Doctor Li exined.


    "Eh! Doctor Li! It''s not as serious as you say. I''ve found a good family for Jiang Xia,


    that''s why I want to marry her off. Doctor Li, you''ve misunderstood." Wang Fen


    replied.


    Doctor Li was sick and tired of the olddy''s hypocrisy. He looked at Jiang Xia, then at


    Jiang Gu, and said, "Jiang Xia and Jiang Gu are both 13 and 9 years old respectively.


    They have not reached the legal age for marriage, so the vige will not register their


    marriage."


    Without waiting for Wang Fen to speak again, he turned around and left.


    Seeing that doctor Li had left, Jiang Chuan and his family also sneaked away.


    Wang Fen was in a daze from doctor Li''s rebuking and didn''t react for a long time.


    Why had everything been so bad for the Jiang family since yesterday?


    Zhou Lan immediately rolled up Jiang Xia''s sleeve upon returning to her room. The


    purplish-green marks made Jiang Xia''s petite figure look even more pitiful.


    Zhou Lan''s eyes were bloodshot. She wished she could go back and give Wang Fen a


    good beating.


    Jiang Chuan was also shocked by Jiang Xia''s miserable state, and his eyes were filled


    with uncontroble anger.


    "How dare she?" Jiang Chuan gritted his teeth and squeezed out the words.


    Jiang Xia could not help but gasp in pain when Zhou Lan touched her lightly.


    However, she still said, "Dad, I''m fine. With the traces of the old woman''s abuse on


    me, it''ll be another bargaining chip for us to separate from them. The more things we


    let outsiders see, the faster we will be able to split with them. When we''repletely


    separated, we won''t have to swallow our anger anymore."


    Jiang Chuan nodded in silence. If they really showed all signs of abuse to the other


    vigers, when they eventually split up with the Jiang family, the others will have


    nothing bad to gossip about.


    No matter what era it was, the words of others would always crush people. Only when


    you had all the evidence would it be reasonable for them to split the family.


    Seeing that her mother was still angry, Jiang Xia gave her a reassuring smile and said,


    "Mom, it''s fine. We will get our revenge sooner orter. Look, didn''t the old woman


    suffer today? She was at a loss of words!"


    At this point, Zhou Lan raised her head and asked, "Xiao Xia, did you do it on purpose


    today? You didn''t let me and your father go out, and made us wait for a long time


    before opening the door"


    Jiang Xia answered Zhou Lan with a smile, "Yup! I noticed yesterday that our door was


    a little faulty. There were only two screws on the top and bottom. When I heard her


    knocking on the door, I secretly loosened the screw and pushed it. But I only did it


    because the door is thin. If it''s thick and the old woman died from it, then there is no


    way we can separate from them."


    Jiang Xia had considered all the situations. Jiang Chuan could not help but look


    pleased.


    Seeing her daughter''s proud expression, Zhou Lan''s expression also rxed a little.


    She smiled and said, "My daughter is amazing. By the way, Xiao Xia, were you the one


    that got Doctor Li here too?"


    "Yes, we needed someone convincing to be the witness. We needed to ensure that the


    olddy is fine so that she won''t nder us in the future." Jiang Xia said. Jiang Xia had


    also asked Xiao Gu to leave the door open when she went to find the doctor so that


    passersby or curious onlookers could take a good look. The more people there were


    to testify that their family had been abused, the better.


    "That''s right, mother, where''s Xiao Gu?"


    Jiang Chuan and Zhou Lan only noticed that Xiao Gu didn''te back with them


    after Jiang Xia mentioned it. The three of them couldn''t be med for this. After all,


    they had just transmigrated yesterday and were still not familiar with this new


    daughter.
