Gu Hanting shook his head. "I can't say for sure about this. I'll observe him further after you leave. This person definitely won't leave anytime soon."

"Girl, leave early, don't wait until late. Let your mother stay in the city, otherwise, with a child on her shoulders, and dealing with that scoundrel Dong Chunxiao, she'll just get more and more upset."

Jiang Qiao hesitated for a moment, then took out a packet of medicine from her bag. "Grandpa, keep this. If you have any adverse reactions, take this first. This is an antidote pill I made. It works well against common poisons."

Gu Hanting looked at his granddaughter in surprise, "Girl, what do you mean?"

Jiang Qiao shook her head with some hesitation. "Because I don't know what their purpose is, it's always good to be on guard. I think they wouldn't dare to do anything so blatantly. If anything happens, have your uncle call my third uncle, so it will be easier for us to stay in touch."

Gu Zhihong leaned on Gu Hanting's shoulder, reluctant to leave. "Grandpa, why don't you come to the city with us? It'll save you from having to face this old hag every day. She's not a good person. She scolded Grandpa Liu and even hit my sister."

Gu Hanting patted his grandson's head affectionately. "Zhihong, listen to your grandfather. Go back to the city with your older brother and sister. After I leave, I don't know what that witch is up to. I'll be at ease as long as you're all well."

On the way, Gu Zhixuan asked the question that had been bothering him, "Sister, can we ask your third uncle to arrest these three people?"

Jiang Qiao shook her head. "Without any evidence, even my third uncle can't just arrest people. Besides, even if they have some ulterior motives, they won't dare to do anything for now. After all, they are acquaintances of everyone, and arresting them would be a piece of cake."

Jiang Qiao thinks the current household registration system is pretty good. At least you can catch people anytime. There isn't much population movement now. If someone goes on a long trip, they have to bring a letter of introduction, so it's easy to check.

As soon as she got home, Ning Hao came looking for her. Jiang Qiao was stunned by the news Ning Hao brought. Not only her, but Wen Jingwan and Qiao Jie were also stunned for a long time.

The old man looked on in disbelief. "How could this happen? How could this happen? Isn't this a menace? Has this person been arrested? He should be executed."

Jiang Qiao never expected things to turn out this way. Jiang Hong was pregnant, and the people who harmed her were Jiang He's cronies. Moreover, they didn't know who the father of the child was, because the girl didn't know either.

Jiang Qiao sighed, “This is Wang Dahua’s beloved grandson. Even his own sister has been harmed because of him. It’s utterly ridiculous.”

By the way, how did you find out about this? I doubt even the Jiang family knows.

Ning Hao was also helpless. He didn't want to know such things. "I was just investigating Jiang Mei. Who would have thought that she would take her sister to have an abortion? Do you think a hospital can just give such a young girl an abortion like that?"

So this matter came to light, and the doctor also suspected that something was amiss. As a result, the police got involved and arrested several people, all of whom were identified by Jiang Hong.

The Jiang family already knows about this—”

"What can I say? I was only away from home for one day, and such a big thing happened. By the way, Jiang Hong came to see me, she didn't want me to have an abortion, did she?"

Ning Hao nodded. "She was the one who wrote about your brother on the blackboard, mainly hoping you would go to her. However, she miscalculated. This isn't a big deal for you. After all, it's true. Even if you protect your brother, you don't have to get involved in every little thing. So—"

Wen Jingwan didn't know how to evaluate the Jiang family anymore. She was secretly glad that her daughter had left the Jiang family. In that kind of living environment, even a good child would turn bad.

"Was Jiang Hong acting voluntarily or passively?"

Jiang Qiao's sudden remark stunned Wen Jingwan and Qiao Jie.

"Is there even a question? No matter what, the woman is at a disadvantage."

Jiang Qiao calmly shook her head. "That's not necessarily true. If it was intentional, it means that Jiang Hong's character is still problematic. If it was simply an accident that caused this, then she still deserves sympathy."

Brother Ning, what exactly happened?

Ning Hao looked deeply into Jiang Qiao's eyes, the affection in which even Jiang Qiao felt was too profound for her to bear.

"Speak quickly—"

Ning Hao gave a wry smile. "Before, Jiang He took my sister out to eat with these people. I guess he didn't have any bad intentions. He just wanted my sister to eat something good, considering Niu Guihua's family's financial situation."

However, over time, Jiang Hong became familiar with those petty thugs. Rumor has it that she had a flirtatious relationship with one of them, but nothing concrete happened; it was probably just first love. But who knows what will happen next? Anyway, it's already happened, so those people, if they're going to be sentenced, will face serious charges.

Qiao Jie sighed, "How old is Jiang Hong? A sixteen-year-old girl, and she already knows about love between men and women?"

Ning Hao sneered, "Grandpa Qiao, don't you even know what kind of environment the Jiang family is in? With an unreliable older sister like Jiang Mei, she'll be quick to go astray."

Besides, Niu Guihua has to go back to the countryside to farm when the time comes, and she can't take care of the children at home. She simply doesn't have time to look after them.

It's all Wang Dahua's fault. She only thought about bringing her grandchildren to the city, without considering that they still have rural household registrations. Running back and forth between their hometown and the city, there are some things she simply can't take care of.

Furthermore, while the city has its advantages, there are some things that, if you can't control them, it's better to stay in the countryside. At least life there is simpler, and there aren't as many ulterior motives.

Look at Jiang He and Jiang Mei, and now Jiang Hong has come along. I don't know how the Jiang family is going to get by from now on.

Qiao Jie pressed further, "Does anyone in our compound know about Jiang Hong's situation?"

Ning Hao shook his head. "The police have blocked the news, but don't forget about the hospital. There are no secrets in this world. We don't know yet, but we can't wait any longer."

"Sigh, how is this child going to get married in the future? Her reputation is ruined, her life is over."

Faced with the old man's sigh, Jiang Qiao didn't say anything else. She really didn't want to comment on the people and things of the Jiang family anymore.

She was somewhat relieved that she was able to leave so easily back then. It's not that she's afraid of being robbed, but that she's afraid of being targeted by thieves. She couldn't stay on guard all the time. If she had stayed, she might have been tricked by the Jiang family one day.

Jiang Qiao glanced at her sleeping younger brother and asked without looking up, "Then, what about Jiang Mei? There's still no evidence to prove she has a relationship with that man?"

Ning Hao shook his head. "Not for now. Brother Song has already sent people to continue investigating this matter."

Jiang Qiao, when will I be completely cured of this poison?

Jiang Qiao didn't speak, but got up to take Ning Hao's pulse. "Continue taking the medicine I gave you. You can go back and report for duty in a week."
