Chapter 252: Insider

Jiang Chuan had said it casually out of anger, but judging by the reactions of the two people, it was clear that the Jiang Gui was well aware of the situation.

Jiang Chuan was secretly delighted. If only Jiang Gui knew, it would be difficult for the two of them to get information out of him. But Jiang Gui was different. He was physically imposing but not very intelligent, so it would be much easier to make him talk.

When Jiang Xia heard the commotion, she came out and stood with Zhou Lan, observing the reactions of the two clearly.

The mother and daughter both sneered at the same time.

Zhou Lan thought to herself: “Drag him up the mountain and give him a good beating, and he’ll definitely tell the truth!”

In Jiang Xia’s heart, if she starved him for three days on the mountain, he would definitely tell the truth!

Poor Jiang Gui, he was now like a lamb ready for slaughter, yet he was completely unaware.

As the standoff continued, Xiao Wu rushed over and said, “Third brother, most people have arrived, and it’s time to distribute the grain. Let’s go!”

Jiang Gui was confused, “Distribute what grain?”

Xiao Wu, who didn’t particularly like the Jiang Gui, said with a stern face, “The relief grain has arrived. Everyone who can work is now at the production team. With your strength, shouldn’t you hurry up and help?”

How could he trust others to distribute his food? What if he gets less than his share?

Jiang Gui often participated in grain distribution and would always secretly add a few more pounds of rice for himself, deducting the excess from others.

Indeed, he projected his own deceit onto others. He was always cutting corners, so he assumed others would do the same with his share.

Jiang Chuan and Jiang Gui followed Xiao Wu. Zhou Lan coldly looked at the old madam and asked, “Will you go home by yourself, or should I send you off?”

Old Madam Jiang felt a chill on her back, glared fiercely at Zhou Lan, and retorted, “I wouldn’t dare to trouble such a delicate lady like you. I’ll walk home myself and let everyone see how filial the third son’s wife really is!”

People say that public opinion can be damning, but Zhou Lan didn’t care about what others thought. Her own happiness was paramount!

She ignored the old madam, closed the door behind her, and left her in a cloud of dust.

Originally, she just had to stay at home and wait for the food to arrive. However, Jiang Gu insisted on going to the production team to see the donkeys. Zhou Lan had no choice but to bring Jiang Xia and Jiang Gu to the production team.

The production team was in chaos. The accountant position had been vacant for a while. Without an accountant, the grain couldn’t be distributed, and everyone was grumbling, causing a ruckus in the square.

Seeing the situation, Jiang Chuan took the initiative to fill the accountant role.

Jiang Gui and Jiang Hua stood aside, expecting Jiang Chuan, who was illiterate, to make a fool of himself.

Despite having attended school every day, these two brothers couldn’t understand the accounting books. But Jiang Chuan, who had never been to school, was willing to try – how ridiculous!

However, to the brothers’ astonishment, not only could Jiang Chuan write, but he also kept the accounts beautifully, even better than the previous accountant.

Jiang Chuan, being a company owner, naturally understood the accounts. This shows that the eldest and the second Jiang brothers were incapable and weren’t cut out for studying. This was probably the normal level of intelligence for the Jiang family.

Someone nearby exclaimed, “Jiang Chuan, didn’t you never attend school? How can you write so beautifully and even keep accounts?”

Caught off guard initially, Jiang Chuan quickly thought of a plausible explanation, “When my elder brothers were attending classes, I secretly listened to a few lectures. So, I know just a little.”

Just a little?

The faces of the two Jiang brothers turned black with embarrassment. Feeling humiliated, they looked for a place to hide, waiting for the work to begin.

People whispered, “The Jiang family wasted their money. Clearly, the third son is the smartest, but they sent the eldest and second sons to school. Isn’t that a waste of money?”

“Yes, Jiang Chuan is so capable. No wonder everyone says he should be the accountant for the production team. He has the skills!”

These discussions didn’t escape Zhou Fang’s ears. The speaker might not have had an intention, but the listener took note. He planned to talk to Jiang Chuan after the grain distribution to see if he’d be interested in becoming the production team’s accountant.

The reason the accountant position had been vacant for so long was that the previous accountant moved to another village with his daughter. The accountants they tried hiring afterward kept making errors, so the position remained empty.

Now that Jiangchuan proved his competence, why not give him a try?
