Jiang Qiao glanced at Wen Songtao. The old man was also quite helpless. His eldest son's family was doing well, and they might have already passed away by now, but he couldn't say anything.

At dinner time, Song Shutian and Ning Hao came together. Originally, he didn't want to bring Ning Hao along, but the guy was shameless. Hearing that he was going to see Jiang Qiao, Ning Hao insisted on coming along.

Jiang Qiao's maternal grandparents' house is a place where she can at least meet the elders of the family. Getting acquainted with them first will make it easier to talk to them when they meet again in the future.

Upon seeing Ning Hao, Wen Songtao was immediately satisfied. The boy was good-looking and energetic, and most importantly, he was a soldier. These days, the old man's favorite people were those in military uniforms, like his son-in-law, who looked reliable and steady.

Despite Gu Zhengfeng's promotion, he treats his daughter exceptionally well. Therefore, in the old man's heart, any man who wears the rank of army commander is reliable.

"Please sit down, please sit down. You haven't eaten yet, have you? Perfect timing, let's eat together. It was made by Qiao'er."

Young man, I heard you and Qiao'er were childhood neighbors?

Ning Hao smiled and nodded, "Yes, Grandpa, don't treat me like an outsider. Speaking of which, I've eaten quite a lot of Jiang Qiao's cooking. My grandparents and Jiang Qiao's grandfather are good friends. With that kind of relationship, wouldn't we be considered half-family?"

The old man laughed heartily, "Yes, yes, that's too kind of you. Hurry up, don't be shy. Girl, bring the bowls and chopsticks."

Ning Hao quickly got up to help, and Jiang Qiao asked in surprise, "Why did you come over? Did you have nothing to do tonight? Didn't you send anyone to keep an eye on things? Did you catch that man?"

Ning Hao flashed his white teeth. "You don't need to worry about that. Brother Song will tell you in a bit. Let's eat first. I haven't had your cooking in a long time. How are things? Are your parents doing well? How's your brother?"

Jiang Qiao raised her neck and said, "He's doing great. You didn't see my little brother. He's so much fun. It's a pity he's too small to bring him back. I'll bring him to see you when he's a little older."

When it was time to eat, Song Shutian explained what had happened that day to Jiang Qiao and Wen Songtao.

"Sigh, it's fortunate that Jiang Qiao appeared. Otherwise, this Song Yuzhu would definitely not have been so easy to catch. Song Yuzhu's main target this time is Jiang Qiao. Of course, she will also take the opportunity to extort money from your Wen family."

To put it bluntly, this woman was also ordered by her superiors to kill Jiang Qiao, but she had her own selfish motives; she wanted to get more money to keep for her daughter abroad.

"Why did you want to kill me? Was she the leader of that special organization?"

Song Shutian shook his head. "She doesn't know why she wanted to kill you; she was just following orders."

Of course, her other identity was that of a member of the Japanese organization, at a higher rank; in a sense, she was a double agent.

Jiang Qiao smiled knowingly, "They've all cooperated, which can be considered as providing her with convenience. So, she was originally trained by the Japanese?"

Song Shutian shook his head. "No, after she was captured back then, the Japanese used her family and children as leverage, so she went back to infiltrate and work for the Japanese. However, after liberation, she was left behind as an undercover agent and could only be considered a minor leader. The one in the shop should be the real leader."

"They've all been arrested?"

Song Shutian shook his head. "We've already sent people to keep a close eye on them. They can't escape. If they really do, we'll arrest them immediately. We just want to see if there are any other liaison stations or personnel."

Jiang Qiao looked at Song Shutian with suspicion, "Could Song Yuzhu have confessed so easily?"

Don't blame Jiang Qiao for being suspicious. These people are the type who won't admit defeat until they're faced with a desperate situation. How could they possibly get the other party to talk so easily in just one afternoon?

Song Shutian looked at Ning Hao with a smile, "We have to thank Ning Hao's mother for what she left behind. It contained information about Song Yuzhu's family, including her children."

Alas, they're all dead. They were killed by the Japanese. But those people lied to her, saying that her family was killed by us, and that her children were sent abroad. All the information she received was fabricated by the enemy. Alas, how tragic and lamentable!

This time, Jiang Qiao was surprised. "Your mother left this message?"

Ning Hao sighed, "My mother wrote about this family in her diary. The other party even asked my mother to tell her about this if she could meet their daughter, so that their daughter could avenge them."

Jiang Qiao gave a wry smile. "Man proposes, God disposes. But your mother was truly a thoughtful person. It's fortunate she left this behind, otherwise Song Yuzhu wouldn't have confessed so easily. Was that man arrested too?"

Song Shutian nodded happily. "That man is assisting the woman, but the two of them are pretending to be husband and wife. This makes it easier to carry out their business in the Wen family. The man pretends to die halfway through the journey, which is also for the convenience of transmitting messages later."

This incident involving your eldest uncle was Song Yuzhu's act of revenge, and also a warning to the Wen family. Her main goal was money.

After hearing this, Mr. and Mrs. Wen Songtao were speechless. It felt like listening to gibberish; this matter seemed so distant from their lives.

Jiang Qiao sighed deeply. "Did she suspect anyone? Who exactly is the leader? And who sent those two women from the north?"

"Milan was sent by her, but the other woman seems to have been sent by someone higher up. I also asked her about this, and she suspects that the person in charge is the director of that orphanage, but she doesn't know much about the specifics."

"Because we've never actually contacted her; we've only communicated through radio and other means, we will continue to investigate this woman."

After listening, Wen Songtao sighed, "You guys really have it tough, peeling back the layers bit by bit, only to end up catching the big boss. Sigh, when will this place be peaceful once we catch all these people? Eat more so you have the strength to catch bad guys."

Jiang Qiao glanced at Ning Hao, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke to Song Shutian, "Brother Ning Hao, you wouldn't be investigating those people in the hospital for you, would you?"

Song Shutian nodded; he hadn't expected Jiang Qiao to guess it either.

"This matter is not easy to investigate, so we need Ning Hao's help, but the main force is on our side."

In front of the elderly Wen family, Song Shutian and Jiang Qiao didn't make their intentions too clear; it was enough for the two of them to know.

"Okay, keep a close eye on this. Did Song Yuzhu not mention this aspect?"

Song Shutian shook his head. "However, it did give us some hints. We'll investigate later."

After the meal, Song Shutian and Ning Hao left in a hurry. Ning Hao knew that Jiang Qiao was leaving, but he didn't have time to see her off and could only give her a few words of advice.

"Grandma, Grandpa, I'm booking tickets for tomorrow. Things here are basically settled. The remaining small fry can't cause any trouble yet and pose no threat to the Wen family. Even if they do, they're only after me. So, I need to go back as soon as possible."

The old man sighed and nodded. "Alright, it's good for him to start school early. Tell everyone in the family to be careful, especially those who haven't experienced this before. I'm afraid they'll be scared."
