Chapter 17: Be a Man with Some Shame

"I'll tell you, that kid surnamed Su is asking for trouble by attending our Jiang family meeting..."

"He's an outsider, it's good enough that he can enter the family meeting, but he's still picky. In my opinion, that miscellaneous table should be prepared for him, haha..."

Listening to the discussions of the collateral clansmen, Xu Yin's face was extremely cold, but she didn't mean to give in at all.

After a while, even the discussions gradually died down.

The whole hall was quiet.

Just when everyone was waiting to see how this matter would be resolved, a cold voice suddenly sounded: "It's just a seat, is it worth arguing about?"

Everyone looked at him in astonishment, and was surprised to find that the person who spoke was actually the usually taciturn Fourth Master Jiang Feng.

It was precisely because he was usually taciturn, sometimes not saying a word for a month, that he suddenly spoke at this moment, which surprised everyone so much.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Jiang Feng stood up and looked at Su Chen.

"I'll give you my seat."

After saying this to Su Chen in a concise manner, Jiang Feng turned around and left in full view of everyone, and walked out of the hall.

Even from the back, it can be seen that his right sleeve is empty.

It was not until Jiang Feng's figure completely disappeared that everyone in the hall reacted.

Did Jiang Feng give his seat to Su Chen?

Jiang Feng himself will not attend the clan meeting?

Although Jiang Feng's usual behavior is somewhat unconventional, this move is still beyond everyone's expectations.

Even Xu Yin was stunned. Is Jiang Feng helping her?

But she and Jiang Feng don't have any friendship at ordinary times, why would he suddenly help her?

Only Su Chen, looking at the direction where Jiang Feng left, sighed in his heart.

In this clan meeting in the previous life, Jiang Feng had done exactly the same thing.

Coupled with some subsequent contacts, Su Chen realized that this Fourth Master Jiang Feng was actually a person with a cold face and a warm heart.

His character is righteous, and he is completely different from Jiang Shan and Jiang He.

In the previous life, Jiang Feng's end was not good.

But this life is different.

Su Chen is a person who clearly distinguishes between gratitude and resentment. In this life, anyone who helps him will be rewarded a hundredfold.

Retracting his thoughts.

Su Chen kept his eyes on Jiang Shan and Jiang He, and his eyes gradually became cold.

In the previous life, Jiang Shan and Jiang He excluded and harmed Xu Yin in every possible way. This incident was just the beginning.

Su Chen has no control over the affairs of the Jiang family, but if you want to touch his relatives, don't blame him for his thundering means.

"Does anyone still have an opinion on Xiao Chen's seat now?"

Xu Yin said coldly. Su Chen is now sitting in Jiang Feng's position. In other words, Su Chen is equivalent to attending the clan meeting on behalf of Jiang Feng.

Although Jiang Feng has always been marginalized, no one can deny that he is a real direct descendant of the Jiang family.

No one can say anything about this.

Jiang He looked grim, and sneered at Su Chen, who was sitting in Jiang Feng's position, and snorted: "Cuckoos occupy the magpie's nest! We'll see later!"

Jiang Shan was obviously more patient, and just glanced at Xu Yin and Su Chen with a slightly gloomy look, and changed the subject: "It's almost time, let's start the clan meeting."

Everyone sat up straight after hearing this, waiting for the clan meeting to officially begin.

Jiang Shan cleared his throat and said: "Today's clan meeting, two things."

"The first thing is about the allocation of cultivation resources this month!"

"For this month's Xiaoyuandan, according to past practice, the first and third rooms will each get 20 pills, the second and fourth rooms will each get 10 pills, and the remaining 20 pills will go to the collateral clan members."

"Does anyone have any objections?"

Xiaoyuandan is a kind of pill taken by warriors in the Qi-inducing and Condensing realms when they practice. It contains a small amount of spiritual energy, and taking it can speed up the practice.

Although Xiaoyuandan is very simple to refine, it is considered a low-end pill in the eyes of alchemists. But in the eyes of ordinary warriors who are not alchemists, Xiao Yuan Dan is still very valuable.

For warriors from large families, dependence on Xiao Yuan Dan has become an indispensable part of their daily practice.

As one of the three major families in Qinghe City, the Jiang family purchases 100 Xiao Yuan Dan from Wubaotang every month and distributes them to warriors in the family.

The distribution method is 60 for the direct line and 40 for the collateral line.

There are many people in the collateral line, and 40 can basically guarantee that everyone will get one.

Among the 60 direct line, Jiang Shan's family, that is, the first house, and Jiang He's family, that is, the third house, can get 20.

However, Xu Yin's family, that is, the second house, can only get 10, only half of theirs, the same as Jiang Feng, who is alone.

Xu Yin took a deep breath. Since Jiang Hai disappeared, Jiang Shan and Jiang He have been in charge of the power. They have been allocated like this every month, and she has gotten used to it.

It's better to have it than not.

"If there is no objection, let's start dividing it."

Jiang Shan waved his hand and ordered the servants to bring in a box.

The lid of the box was opened, and a hundred light red small Yuandan were neatly arranged in the box.

But, just when Xu Yin was about to go forward to take her share, a thunderous voice suddenly sounded.

"Wait!"

"I have an objection!"

Third Master Jiang He!

It's him again!

Jiang Feng said: "What objection do you have? Say it!"

Jiang He sneered, pointed at Xu Yin, and said: "I have an objection to the second room!"

"There are only two women in the second room, but they have occupied the family's precious cultivation resources for a long time. I think that the ten small Yuandan allocated to the second room every month is too much."

Jiang He said, laughing maliciously, "I suggest that starting from this month, the small Yuandan of the second room should be reduced to... two!"

The voice fell.

Xu Yin stood up suddenly, shocked and angry: "Third Master, say it again?"

Reduce the small Yuandan of the second room to two?

Is it one-tenth of the first and third rooms?

What's the difference between that and nothing?

Jiang He sneered: "Second sister-in-law, I am doing this for the good of the entire Jiang family. There are two women in your second house, and your daughter will get married sooner or later. The second house occupies so many precious resources and can't make any contribution to the Jiang family!"

Xu Yin said coldly: "Now that Tingyi is married, is she no longer a member of the Jiang family? Besides, even if Tingyi is married, don't I still have her?"

As she spoke, Xu Yin's eyes were as sharp as substance, shooting at Jiang Shan: "Brother, are you just letting the third brother make trouble and speak nonsense at the clan meeting?"

Jiang Shan's eyes flashed, but he said lightly: "Don't worry, second brother and sister-in-law, I think what Jiang He said makes sense and is worth considering."

"It just so happens that the first and third houses don't have enough Xiaoyuandan every month. Reducing the Xiaoyuandan of the second house just makes up for the insufficient part, which can also be regarded as your contribution to the Jiang family."

"You..."

Xu Yin took a breath and was stunned.

Shocked by the shamelessness of Jiang Shan and Jiang He!

They were paid twenty Xiao Yuan Dan a month, but they still wanted to take advantage of the few Xiao Yuan Dan from the second room, and put the Xiao Yuan Dan from the second room into their own pockets!

"Big brother, third brother, have some dignity!"

Xu Yin couldn't help but said coldly, "When Jiang Hai was still here, he made more contributions to the Jiang family than the two of you combined. But even so, he never asked for more Xiao Yuan Dan for the second house. It was the same as you, twenty per month."

"But after he got into trouble, the first thing you two did was to cut the Xiao Yuan Dan of our second house to ten per month!"

Xu Yin ignored her usual gentle image, her eyes spurted with anger, pointed at Jiang Shan and Jiang He, and said sternly, "And the ten Xiao Yuan Dan you withheld were all put into your own pockets!"

"And now, you want to repeat the same trick and reduce the Xiao Yuan Dan of our second house again, I won't agree! We are all direct descendants of the Jiang family, you have twenty Xiao Yuan Dan per month, and we have two? No matter how you say it, it doesn't make sense!"
