It's good to exchange marriages. My sister eats coarse food while I wear gold and silver.

"You bastard, you dare to complain to your father!"

Jiang Weiyu said as he waved his hand in his half brother's face: "Sure enough, just like your mother, lowly!"

Jiang Weihao can let Jiang Weiyu pin him to the ground and beat him, but he cannot insult his mother.

Then, a trace of hatred flashed across his eyes, and the next second the two of them switched positions: "Jiang Weiyu, watch your mouth!"

Jiang Weiyu was stunned. He didn't expect that his half-brother, who had always been submissive in front of him, would dare to resist him and even punch him in the face.

He flew into a rage.

He took out the dagger hidden at his waist and stabbed Jiang Weihao hard in the shoulder.

"Uh!"

Jiang Weihao covered his shoulder in pain and stepped back repeatedly. Blood flowed out from between his fingers and dripped onto the ground. After just a moment, he was sweating from the pain. "Jiang Weiyu, you come to torture me or insult me every now and then. If you have the guts, just kill me!"

"Humph."

Jiang Weiyu wiped the blood from his lips, played with the dagger, and looked down at Jiang Weihao: "Kill you? Isn't that too easy for you? It will also dirty my hands. It would be more satisfying to torture and humiliate you."

"Despicable!" Jiang Weihao clenched his teeth, his facial muscles tense, "I know you spread the rumors about my brother and deliberately framed me."

"Jiang Weihao, are you really good to Big Brother? Not necessarily?" Jiang Weiyu snorted and laughed, "Others can't see it, but I can see it. You praise Big Brother on the surface, but in fact, you have done a lot of things to frame him behind his back, right?"

"Jiang Weiyu, with your temper, if I was the one who spread this matter, you would have tortured me to death, but why did you suddenly come out to smooth things over when big brother wanted to get to the bottom of the matter?" Jiang Weihao sneered. Ever since he was old enough to understand, he knew that this family was rotten to the core. If he hadn't been reluctant to leave his mother, he would have run away from home long ago. Even if he went out to make a living, it was better than being someone's grandson in the Jiang family every day.

"A bastard is just a bastard. No matter how talented he is, he is only fit to carry shoes for the legitimate son!" Jiang Weiyu said sarcastically.

"You are not the eldest son. It is not your turn to have the final say in this family."

"That was in the past. Who knows what will happen in the future." Jiang Weiyu was a little bit bad. He couldn't keep things to himself. If he found a hundred taels of silver outside today, he would let the whole capital know that he found money in less than half a day. "I'm going to do business with Boss Chu soon. Do you know who Boss Chu is?"

Jiang Weihao looked at him with confusion.

"You can't tell at first glance. Do you know Yue Shangshao?" Jiang Weiyu said with a half-smile, "It's the Yue Shangshao that is crowded with people every day and has a huge business. Jiang Weihao, just wait and see, I will definitely become the pride of my father and the Jiang family!"

Done.

Jiang Weiyu laughed and turned to leave Jiang Weihao's yard.

"Hao'er, Hao'er."

Long before Jiang Weiyu came in, Jiang Weihao's mother, Minister Jiang's concubine Cui Yue, had woken up.

"Mom, I'm fine."

Jiang Weihao looked at his mother who rushed over and immediately stood up, gritting his teeth: "It's just a minor injury, it's nothing serious."

"It's my fault. I've dragged you down." Cui Yue touched her son's pale face, her eyes full of sadness and self-blame. "It's all my fault that I was bewitched. It's all my fault that I've been useless and made you suffer with me."

"Mom, you are a real man, what does this little hardship mean to you?" Jiang Weihao wiped away the tears from his mother's face, "Let's go back to the room first."

"Hao'er!"

Cuiyue grabbed her son's arm and looked at him with burning eyes: "I just heard Jiang Weiyu say that he wants to do business with the boss of Yueshangshao?"

"Yeah, but I don't know if it's true or if he's just bragging."

"It's probably true. I had the honor of meeting him once when I was in the music troupe." Before marrying Minister Jiang, Cui Yue was a dancer in a music troupe in Jiangcheng. Because of her outstanding dancing skills, she was often arranged to receive important people. With her beauty and talent, many people offered olive branches to her. But she fell in love with Minister Jiang, who was not good at speaking and would blush when he looked at her.

"Hold on."

Cuiyue returned to her room, found a jade pendant from her dowry box, went to her son's room, and handed it to him: "I helped him out of a predicament at that time, so he gave me this jade pendant, so that if I encounter difficulties, he can help me once."

Jiang Weihao was stunned for a moment, and regardless of his injured shoulder, he stood up all of a sudden: "Mom, you..."

"You mean why I took it out now?" Cui Yue smiled. "If I had taken it out earlier, this jade pendant would have gone to your father, your eldest brother, and your second brother, but not to you. But now the situation is different. Your second brother has already met with Boss Chu, and your eldest brother can only stay at home to avoid the limelight because of Yuan Jinse's matter..."

Cui Yue took a step closer to her son and held his hand: "This is what I've been telling you about, the right time to wait!"

The next day.

Jiang Weihao brought the jade pendant to the moon's top. After strict interrogation, he met Chu Batian.

"Are you Cui Yue's son? You've grown up so much?" Chu Batian looked at Jiang Weihao, then at the jade pendant in his hand, and almost laughed out loud. He originally just wanted to help Xiao Weier vent her anger, but he didn't expect that his casual action back then would escalate the internal conflicts of the Jiang family to a higher level many years later.

Interesting, really interesting.

"Boss Chu..."

For the first time, I begged a powerful person to give me a chance.

Jiang Weihao was very panicked and nervous.

"Speak slowly about what you want to say."

Boss Chu came back to his senses and looked at Jiang Weihao with a smile. Based on his experience of seeing countless people, he knew that this kid in front of him always had a strong desire to succeed in life, but he had been oppressed for so many years. Once he gained power, he would pay back the bad guys who bullied him a hundredfold and would also extend his claws to innocent people.

"I want to come to Yueshangshao to do some work, whether it's serving tea or running errands, I can do it..."

"You are the son of Minister Jiang after all. If others see you serving tea here, wouldn't that be embarrassing for your father?" Chu Batian interrupted Jiang Weihao. "I always remember your mother's kindness in helping me out. How about this? You tell me the amount and I'll have someone give it to you right now. With the money, you can at least..."

"Boss Chu, do you think I'm holding my mother's jade pendant to blackmail you?" Jiang Weihao felt humiliated. More importantly, he realized that his identity as a bastard really made it difficult for him to move forward.

"How could that be? If I thought you were here to blackmail me, would you still stand in front of me and question me like this?" Chu Batian laughed, "Sit down first. We can talk slowly if you have anything to say."
