When Secretary Jiang heard this, he suddenly felt a sense of respect for her.

Miss Jian Er is an interesting person.

Much more interesting than the rigidly polite yet hypocritical people in the Jane family.

Among the middle and upper classes in Star City, there are probably few who don’t know that the Jian family’s supreme preference for Miss Jian has long surpassed the family rules that are ingrained in them.

Among the ladies of Star City, who would not be jealous and envious of Miss Jane for receiving such favor?

After all, in many middle and upper class families, daughters who are generally powerless and raised in pampering are more often used as tools to arrange marriages and consolidate the family's status.

Of course there are people who gossip, but not many.

However, Miss Jane II looks pretty and well-behaved when she is quiet, but she has a mouth that is terribly cruel!

At this moment, Secretary Jiang once again raised her status. This Second Ancestor Jian must be treated with care in the future.

This fighting power is harmful to the body.

Thinking of this, he glanced at the distorted expressions of everyone in the Jian family and sighed silently in his heart.

Jane family, thank you for your hard work!

But seeing them get humiliated is actually quite satisfying.

Mr. Jian's face was as black as ink at this moment, and his eyes were filled with rage. Those last two sarcastic words were enough to make him explode with anger.

But did she say anything wrong?

No!

Even every word is based on facts.

What could he say?

Scold her, criticize her for disrespecting elders and violating family rules?

Reason and good manners told him not to do that.

After all, she is not on the Jane family tree yet, so she is not a real member of the Jane family!

When Mr. Jian thought about this problem, the veins on his forehead started throbbing. Why wasn't she on the family tree?

Why isn't she in the family tree?

He feels like there is something stuck in his throat, that's how he is now, wanting to be angry but unable to find an outlet!

Moreover, he knew that if he couldn't explain the matter clearly, his niece would definitely not give up.

Scolding is useless, so what else can I do? I can only reason with her.

He took a deep breath, suppressed the irritation and anger in his heart, looked directly at his niece, and patiently explained, "I have a lot of things to deal with recently, so the punishment will be postponed for a week. I will arrange everything before proceeding.

As for my niece Luo Ling, she is currently in solitary confinement and copying the family rules, so her other punishments have naturally been postponed."

Jian Jinge listened to his explanation patiently, looked at him with a half-smile, and replied softly, word by word, "Second Master Jian, your situation is understandable, but Miss Jian's delay, please forgive my ignorance and could you please explain it to me."

Without a pause, she continued to find fault before he could respond, "One month of confinement, such a long time, why not let her first receive the punishment of twenty lashes and kneeling in the ancestral hall for a week to reflect on her mistakes?

Since they have to be confined anyway, wouldn't it be more reasonable to confine them together to recuperate after getting injured?

Don't you want to delay time and wait until everyone has forgotten about it so that Miss Jane can escape the punishment?

No way, no way? You don't really think that, do you?

This is truly a disgrace to the Jian family rules!"

Jian Jinge's actions this time were even more exaggerated. He took several steps back, his tone full of shock and suspicion. His burning gaze swept up and down at Master Jian and the others.

The Jian family: ...

I really want to shut her poisonous mouth!

That look of disdain, suspicion and disappointment made Mr. Jian feel like he was being stabbed with a thorn, and he was shaking with anger all over.

It is the anger that comes from having some of the little thoughts in your heart exposed.

They all understood that niece Luo Ling had asked to be put in solitary confinement in the beginning with this little thought in mind.

But since Old Master Jian had agreed, they naturally wouldn't expose it and chose to turn a blind eye.

Now, not only did they expose their little thoughts directly, but coupled with her last sentence, it really pierced his heart and made him bleed.

Almost every word she said after she opened her mouth hit his sore spot!

At this moment, he felt angry and realized that he had violated the Jian family rules. He was speechless for a moment.

Jian Jinge glanced at the other members of the Jian family who were ready to make a move, not giving them a chance to speak. He spread his hands and said helplessly and comfortingly, "Secretary Jiang, you see, the Jian family seems to really want to avoid Miss Jian's punishment by taking too long.

I think the punishment requested by the city lord, as a mere secretary general, will not be able to shake the decision of the Jian family.

So you should go back and tell your city lord to give him a month...ah no..." Jian Jinge paused and corrected himself.

"Miss Jane has been in solitary confinement for nearly a week. That means you won't have to come back in a month, but three weeks later.

I think that since the city lord comes in person, Old Master Jian will give him face and immediately fulfill the agreement to punish Miss Jian.

After all, people tend to forget things easily. After a while, who can remember what happened a month ago or a year ago?

A little secretary general?

Hearing this, Secretary Jiang's mouth twitched slightly, but when he thought about her words, he glanced at the Jian family with some pity.

Just as he was about to speak, a cold and indifferent voice suddenly sounded, interrupting him.

"Second Master, Luo Ling is willing to accept the punishment now."

The two flower meanings of the Piranha Plant are: "If you can't get it, you must destroy it" (?ヮ??) and "Love each other as if every day is the end of the world."
