Chapter 47 Chapter 47

Jiang Suiyi didn't sleep well all night because after he sent some pictures, Yue Qing said thank you and didn't reply again. It seemed that she had no intention of paying for it from him?

He tossed and turned, even opening the photo editing software before going to bed, debating for half an hour whether to make himself a "gift package", the kind that offers 20 yuan off for purchases over 100 yuan, with free shipping within the city.

But Mr. Jiang finally gave up because he was afraid that Yueqing would find it too expensive.

But I was unwilling to wholesale a plastic bracelet for 5 yuan.

This is the first time in my life that I feel so anxious receiving a gift.

When he woke up the next day and opened the door, he subconsciously looked at the ground and the door handle, and he breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that there was no plastic bag that made him sensitive.

Fortunately, I am not that cheap.

She's not that crazy.

The door opposite opened with a click, and two little heads popped out one after the other: "Uncle is awake! Uncle, come and have breakfast!"

Um?

The previous breakfast was not a one-time thing.

Mr. Jiang, who was about to go downstairs, walked over very naturally out of some strange mentality.

Anyway, they invited me, so I can have breakfast anywhere.

But after entering the room, he found that the person who made breakfast today was not Yueqing, but Sister Wang.

Sister Wang used to be a nanny for wealthy families. The breakfast she could make was not only nutritious, but also delicious and exquisite. In comparison, Yue Qing made the food of ordinary people. But after Jiang sat down, he felt that it was not as familiar as the food he saw yesterday.

Sure enough, people are all cheapskates.

Yue Qing came out of the room holding a box: "Sister Wang, I remember you seemed to have a sewing box..."

Seeing the tall man standing in the living room, she paused for a moment before returning to her usual pace: "Good morning."

"Okay." Jiang Sui looked at the box in her hand, "Was this yesterday?"

Yue Qing said sheepishly, "I'll see if I can find a way to connect."

"You can send it to the counter," Jiang Sui said. "Give it to me and I'll have someone fix it for you."

Counter?

Yueqing reacted and wondered why he hadn't thought of it.

After all, it was a new bracelet worth several thousand dollars, unlike the decorative items she had bought for fun before, which had after-sales service.

"Is it okay if it's damaged by human hands?" she asked.

"should."

Yue Qing closed the lid, then thought about picking out a gift herself, and said, "Then I'll go by myself."

Seeing this, Jiang Suisui didn't say anything else.

But after sitting down, I realized something was wrong.

Logically speaking, Yue Qing had bought a lot of luxury goods before and should be more familiar with some of the default rules than him. How could he not even know this?

Besides, she has been with Jiang Yan for so long, it is impossible that she has never given Jiang Yan a gift. Did she give him a gift in the same way back then?

Thinking of Jiang Yan's special liking for street stall goods, Jiang suddenly understood.

That makes sense.

In other words, if I really receive a small gift, it is not actually unacceptable.

President Jiang felt that his analysis was very thorough. If Jiang Yan could do it, why couldn't he? As long as he didn't give him weird clothes, it would be fine.

After putting the bracelet away, Yue Qing sat down opposite Jiang Sui: "There's something I feel I need to mention to you."

"Um?"

"Ordinary children of their age should have attended kindergarten for half a year," Yue Qing said. "Although the two children are smart, you're busy with work, and I probably won't be home with them every day. So, relying on Sister Wang alone isn't enough for their education. They won't be able to interact with many peers, so I wonder if you'd consider sending them to kindergarten for half a year to help them adapt?"

In this way, by the second half of the year, you may be able to catch up with other children.

It just so happens that spring semester is about to start, so it’s a bit difficult to get admission to a public kindergarten through lottery, but it should be no problem to get admitted to a private kindergarten.

Before Jiang Suiyi could say anything, the two kids shook their heads like rattles: "No!"

"Why not?" Yue Qing was surprised. "Don't you like studying?"

"My aunt said I had to go out and study, and I could only come home during the Chinese New Year." Little Lejia remembered everything his aunt said very clearly. "I want to go home every day, and I don't want to be separated from my aunt."

Meibao also pouted: "Sister and brother are studying at home and have a reading machine."

"It's different." Yue Qing explained patiently, "Even if you go to school, you can still go home every day."

As for which home I will return to in the future, I can’t guarantee it.

"Auntie goes to work, and you go to school." Jiang Suizhi said calmly, "Everyone has their own things to do, including children. They can't be lazy."

After his father spoke, Yueqing fell silent and ate his meal in peace.

But little Le Jia dared to resist his easy-going aunt, but he didn't dare to resist Uncle Xie.

"I'm not a scoundrel." Meibao still didn't realize the seriousness of the matter. "An An is being reasonable."

After listening for a long time without understanding the reason, Jiang Sui asked, "What's the reason?"

"That's just childish thinking." Meibao said confidently.

Then, my brother stuffed a big bun into my mouth and whispered to me, "Stop talking. He's really bad at hitting people."

He can even kick the toilet door in. This uncle is so scary, even scarier than the one in kindergarten.

Meibao also reacted immediately and asked quietly: "Can you hit a child even if she's not your aunt?"

"Cough cough cough cough cough!!" Yue Qing coughed so hard that it shook the earth.

I finally earned back some points in terms of impression, but I can’t say that I’m bald to those two kids.

Jiang then pushed a glass of juice in front of her, not taking the words seriously at all. Instead, he looked at the two children and said, "Only hit the unreasonable ones."

"Uncle, how could you hear it!" Zizi was shocked.

Jiang Suizhi was not accommodating at all: "Do you think you guys spoke quietly?"

Now that the secret of the whisper was made public, the two children's worldview suddenly collapsed and they sat there in a daze.

Yue Qing couldn't help but cover her face.

She now feels that if Jiang Sui takes care of the child, something might... happen.

So I couldn't help but remind them: "Children think differently from adults, so sometimes you can't be so straightforward."

Jiang then raised his eyes and said, "If I don't speak directly, won't they understand even less?"

“…”

It seems to make sense.

"I'll contact you about the kindergarten." Jiang Suizhi was very reliable when it came to serious matters. "I'll let you know when it's confirmed."

"good."

After a pause, Jiang Sui continued, "Don't send the kids to see me tomorrow. I won't be back to stay for the next few days. I'll send you the breakfast pictures on time."

Yueqing raised an eyebrow silently.

Although he said it very sternly, he actually agreed to all the requests of the children. Isn't taking photos and checking in unreasonable enough?

The children might forget it after a day or two, but he still remembered it clearly.

"I'll have someone pick you up in four days."

Oh, his brother's funeral.

Because of the misunderstanding last night, Yue Qing felt a little guilty, so he tried his best to appear happy: "Okay, I will prepare in advance."

Seeing her sudden smile, Jiang Sui quickly looked away.

well.

After breakfast, Jiang Sui looked at the children sitting in the rocking car for a while and then stood up: "Then I'm leaving."

"OK."

Jiang Sui walked to the door, then turned back as if remembering something: "Although I won't be back, if you need anything, you can call me. If you need anything, you can ask someone to pick it up. You don't have to come to me in person."

This is for her safety. After all, the Jiang family is not at peace recently.

Yue Qing couldn't think of what would require him to go to him in person, so he could only nod blankly.

Sister Wang was watching from the side and felt that the scene was quite weird.

It seems like a step that a couple takes before leaving home, and it needs to be repeated several times.

But in all honesty, Jiang Sui's original intention was just to prevent Yueqing from going to great lengths to send gifts.

In fact, he was overthinking it. Although Yueqing wanted to send a gift, he was not in a hurry. He hadn't bought the thing yet. Even if he bought it, he could wait until they met to get it, so there was no need to deliver it personally.

Since Jiang Suizhi won't be back these few days, it's a good opportunity for her to choose one with good value for money.

She was quite relaxed, but Jiang Sui was really tormented waiting for her.

The whole day passed without seeing any messages on my phone, not even from a private number.

She's not going to buy it here?

Whose wholesale price is more reasonable than ours?

Mr. Jiang was very confused, so he finally picked out a gift that he liked and marked it in red capital letters using photo editing software and placed it in the middle of the nine-square grid, and then started jumping off the building again.

After a while, someone liked his post on WeChat Moments, and he finally felt relieved when he saw the familiar avatar.

But after waiting for a long time, Yueqing still didn't come to chat with me privately.

President Jiang: ???

With her personality, that shouldn't happen.

Is it going to be given away for free?

No, is he really worthless?

Mr. Jiang turned off his phone in a not very happy mood, and now he decided that it didn't matter even if he received a plastic bracelet!

He didn't really want it anyway.

Just a gift.

When he got off work, he went straight back to the Jiang family's old house. He said that it was true that he would not go back for the past few days. In the past, he would only come back on the day of Jiang Yan's death, but this year he had other arrangements, and he wanted to invite Yueqing's family of three to come over, so he had to make preparations in advance to ensure their safety.

The weather was good these two days. When he drove in, he saw a few people standing by the pond in front.

Jiang Yu was pushing Old Man Jiang to feed the fish.

It is like this every year. From the Chinese New Year to the anniversary of his death, Mr. Jiang's daughter and son will stay in the old house until the anniversary of his death, and then they will go back to their respective homes. They say that they are afraid that the old man will be sad and they want to accompany him well.

Mr. Jiang also saw his car, stood up and asked in surprise, "He's back?"

Under normal circumstances, Jiang Sui would have just said hello and gone back, but unusually, he got out of the car and walked towards them first.

"grandfather."

Old Master Jiang was obviously a little happier. "I was just telling your aunt about you. Your father is the same. He just gave up and didn't care about anything. You are so young, but he put all the burden on you. You are so busy that you can't even go home. I heard that you don't even go to your brother's house anymore. You live in the group building instead?"

"There's a vacant floor above for renovation." Jiang then picked up some fish food from the table and sprinkled it into the pond. "It'll be convenient for work, too."

"No matter how convenient it is, you still have to take care of your health." Old Master Jiang disagreed. "Work is a small matter. You know your family will miss you too. You didn't stay with us for many years anyway. Did you see a doctor recently?"

Jiang then smiled: "How do you know?"

Jiang Yu explained for the old man, "Your second uncle happened to see it during a physical examination, but he didn't say hello to you. Are you under a lot of pressure? Why did you go to the neurology department?"

"Is my second uncle also under a lot of pressure?" Jiang Sui asked in return, "How could he meet someone in the psychiatric department in such a large hospital?"

Jiang Yu sighed: "He just has all the old age problems, it's just his own psychology."

"Hmph." Old Master Jiang sat down and tapped the ground with his cane. "I'd say he's just too ambitious. He keeps thinking about random things all the time, and it's driving him sick."

Jiang Suizhi raised his eyebrows: "We should go and take a look. How is it going? Did you find any problems?"

"It's nothing, just let him rest more." Jiang Yu said.

"Is that so?" Jiang Sui also sat beside him, speaking casually, "Second uncle is the same. He knows that grandpa is old, but he still makes grandpa worry about trivial matters."

"Is he making me worry? He is..." Old Master Jiang stopped talking halfway, just glanced at his grandson and sighed heavily.

Jiang Yu glanced at the old man hesitantly and whispered, "Sui Sui, don't take what your aunt said to heart. Your second uncle may only want to help you because you are young, but we all know you are capable. Your grandfather has already told him that we are family after all."

According to her, Jiang Heling came to the old man not to complain, but to file a complaint.

As long as you say that Jiang Suizhi is under great mental pressure and needs to share the burden, you can buy yourself more opportunities.

"It's okay." Jiang Suizhi casually sprinkled the fish food and looked at the bloated fish. "I don't mind."

Jiang Yu breathed a sigh of relief: "That's great..."

Before he could finish his words, he saw his nephew raise his eyelids and said with a half-smile: "After all, he has the intention but not the courage to do it, and he only dares to talk about it. What can I mind?"

Jiang Yu was stunned for a moment.

"But the group is indeed a bit busy." He said casually, "After the New Year, I plan to open a market in the Tibetan area. If my second uncle is interested, I will talk to him then."

This statement surprised the other two people.

Jiang Hechang has always been in charge of all the power in the Jiang family. Others have not had much of a share and can only get some dividends at most.

Unexpectedly, now that Jiang Suizhi came up, he was willing to give his uncle a chance to join the group.

Old Master Jiang hadn't expected his grandson to be so magnanimous. "Suizhi, are you serious?"

"Yeah." Jiang nodded. "Wait until my brother's death anniversary is over, and the time can be stuck on time. Although my second uncle has a quick temper, he is more experienced than me. My father is not interested in his career now. Since my second uncle is willing, I will trouble him. After all, we are all family."

This is actually the result that Mr. Jiang wants to see most.

After dividing his property among his sons and daughters, only Jiang Hechang has survived to this day and become famous.

But as the group grew bigger day by day, the gap between the sons and daughters became deeper and deeper. The eldest son was ambitious and capable, while the second son's own company had been lukewarm and he wanted to learn from the eldest brother's group but had no chance, which made things very unhappy. The youngest daughter was only concerned with eating, drinking and having fun, but in order to avoid suspicion, she also drifted away from the two of them. How could an old man feel good about this?

Although the little grandson did not intend to give his second uncle any shares, he was still taking the initiative to break the ice.

"Good, good." Old Master Jiang smiled from ear to ear. "You are indeed far-sighted. A harmonious family is the foundation of everything."

Jiang Yu, who had been silent the whole time, finally reacted. She sat down next to Jiang Sui and said, "If your father and brother had thought this way, our family might not be what it is now."

Jiang Sui continued feeding the fish and asked with a smile, "What do you mean, aunt?"

It was rare to hear him call her aunt, so Jiang Yu smiled and said, "Just like your grandfather said, a harmonious family brings prosperity."

Jiang then put down the fish food and said calmly, "There's nothing wrong with what my father and brother did. It's just that we made different choices, and..."

He asked doubtfully, "Is there any discord at home?"

"Why not?" Old Master Jiang said with a straight face, "We spend the New Year together every year, chatting and laughing. Even if we fight a lot, aren't we still a family?"

Jiang then nodded in agreement: "Grandpa is right."

Hearing this, Jiang Yu looked at the old man and then at Jiang Suizhi, feeling very embarrassed.

"Aunt, if you have anything to say, please tell me."

Jiang Yu had no choice but to lower his voice: "Your brother, I heard that his death did not seem to be an accident."

"Of course not." Jiang Suizhi's face darkened. "It's almost been three years. Auntie, don't listen to other people's nonsense."

After saying that, he stood up, apologized to the old man and left the small garden.

"What are you talking about?" Old Master Jiang frowned. "Why are you getting angry again after just a few words with me?"

Jiang Yu said helplessly: "I just said a few words to him, maybe he was upset, I'll go and take a look."

On this side, Jiang took out his cell phone and made a call after leaving the small garden.

"Hey, you're going to call me too?" Jiang Heling's voice was sarcastic.

Jiang Suizhi turned his head slightly and said, "Second Uncle, where are you? Your voice is so low."

Then he put his phone on speakerphone: "That's all right."

"What did you say?" Jiang Heling felt that this kid was possessed by evil spirits and was still calling him second uncle.

They only meet once or twice a year, and usually don't say a word. But when something unusual happens, there must be something wrong: "What are you doing?"

"I just had a chat with Grandpa." Jiang Sui's voice became a little louder. "I told him that I wanted my second uncle to help me control the new market in the northwest."

There was silence on the other end of the line for a full ten seconds before Jiang Heling cursed, "Did you take the wrong medicine?"

"Seriously." Jiang Suizhi curled his lips, "Grandpa and Auntie both heard it, so if Second Uncle is free, please come back and we can talk it over. We'll be busy with my brother's death anniversary in a couple of days, so we might not have time to discuss it. It will be too late after the Lantern Festival."

"Mad."

Jiang Heling seemed to have pushed something away, and there was a clanging sound. "I'll be right back. If you don't respect me, I'll complain to your father and grandfather!"

Jiang then smiled and said, "Okay."

He put away his phone and was about to go to the elevator when he heard footsteps behind him. He turned around and saw Jiang Yu following him. She frowned and said, "You can't be so impulsive."

"Impulsive?" Jiang Suizhi leaned against the wall and raised an eyebrow. "I've thought about this for a long time, ever since I took over the group. I've finally come to a conclusion. It wasn't impulsive. My second uncle may have a bad mouth, but he doesn't have any bad intentions."

"He..." Jiang Yu hesitated to speak.

"Aunt, if you have anything to say, just say it directly."

Jiang Yu glanced around, making sure there was no one else around before saying, "He told me about your brother before."

"What's up?"

"Your brother had a girlfriend before, but because they were not a good match, your father paid for her to go abroad."

Jiang Suizhi nodded: "I heard it from my dad."

"But did you know that person was pregnant at the time?"

"I think so."

"I don't know how, but your brother heard about her giving birth abroad and immediately went to look for them." Jiang Yu paused, "That's when the car accident happened."

"I know." Jiang Suizhi reached out and touched his watch, frowning slightly. "This is an accident."

"Then do you know who told him that the woman and children were abroad?"

Jiang Suizhi suddenly raised his eyes, but did not answer.

Jiang Yu spoke each word with emphasis: "Your second uncle."

"How could your second uncle know something that even your father couldn't find out?" Jiang Yu said, "Does he have the same ability as your father? And what a coincidence that your brother got into a car accident when he was looking for someone?"

"Aunt." Jiang Suizhi stood up straight and interrupted her, "Grandpa just said that a harmonious family brings prosperity. He won't be happy to hear this."

After saying that, she gave her a cold look and said, "Even if it's true, Auntie has to produce evidence. This isn't the era where one sentence can deceive others. Besides, why didn't you say it three years ago? Why did you say it now?"

"It was only later that I slowly began to feel that something was wrong. Three years ago, your father and grandfather were physically and mentally devastated by your brother's situation. If I told them about it, would they be able to bear it for a while?"

"Alright, Auntie." Jiang Sui's eyes darkened. "I need to talk to my dad about something. I don't want to hear about this kind of thing anymore. Now that there's no evidence, please don't talk nonsense and affect my dad and grandpa."

Without giving Jiang Yu any time to react, he turned around and left quickly without even taking the elevator.

Seeing his anxious back as he left, Jiang Yu's brows were still furrowed. After a long while, she sent him a message: "I'll give you evidence."

Five minutes later, Jiang Sui threw his phone on the table.

Jiang Hechang stood beside him, glanced at the message on his phone, his face looking grim: "She hid this kind of thing for three years?"

"If it weren't for what happened today, she would have hidden for the rest of her life." Jiang Sui looked downstairs.

Jiang Heling was indeed very anxious. He rushed over shortly afterwards, but his car was stopped halfway.

Seeing the two figures, Jiang Yi curled his lips slightly.

Jiang Hechang asked, "Did you ever doubt your second uncle from the beginning?"

"If he really did it, there are only two possibilities," Jiang Sui said. "First, he's truly hopelessly stupid. But if that's the case, there's no way you wouldn't be able to find out."

"Secondly, he's smart enough to deceive everyone by disguising himself. But if he had such a scheme, and he had started from the same starting point as you, he wouldn't have let you live to this day."

For some reason, Jiang Hechang felt that his son was scolding him.

"Then how did you suspect Jiang Yu?"

The three siblings all received equal things from Grandpa Jiang, but Jiang Yu was the only one who did not use the money for business. Instead, she invested it in her two brothers. She used the dividends to travel around the world and only came back to spend time with Grandpa during the holidays.

If she really wanted to, why would she make such a choice?

"Is it the money given by grandpa that is more, or the dividends you have received over the years that are more?" Jiang Sui asked.

The answer is already very clear.

The Jiang family’s wealth today is no longer comparable to what it was back then.

"How big is the world that she hasn't figured it out after traveling abroad every day of the year for so many years?" Jiang Suizhi asked slowly, "Do you think she's really just playing around?"

As he spoke, he took out a document and said, "This is a company she registered overseas using someone else's identity. Things are different overseas. They have their own methods and means."

Jiang Hechang flipped through a few pages, breathing heavily, "How did you find that?"

"I started investigating her the first time I saw her." Jiang Sui said coldly.

When he returned to the Jiang family, Jiang Heling and Jiang Yu all rushed over. It was obvious that they were shocked to have a new member in the family.

But Jiang Yu's joy overshadowed her shock. Her care for Jiang Sui in the past few years was unmatched by anyone, not even Jiang Hechang.

But Jiang Suizhi was different from others. He didn't like anyone touching him, and he couldn't accept the warm kindness of strangers. In addition, he was shocked by Jiang Yan's death at that time, and everyone seemed to be an enemy, so he paid more attention to Jiang Yu.

He didn't know anyone's background and analyzed each person's behavioral tendencies by looking at his enemies.

Only Jiang Yu was the strangest.

She was more normal and enthusiastic than anyone else in the Jiang family, but she was the only one who cried more sadly than her own father at Jiang Yan's funeral. During that time, she stayed with Jiang Hechang to help him investigate the cause of the car accident, no matter how big or small, so Jiang Hechang didn't find out anything.

Would she, who only sees Jiang Yan once a year, be sadder than her grandfather and father?

If Jiang Sui had not been with Jiang Yan before, he might have believed it.

But although Jiang Yan seemed a little unreliable, he actually knew everything better than anyone else. During the time Jiang Sui had been with Jiang Yan, even Jiang Heling had heard him mention it once or twice, but he had never mentioned this aunt much.

Jiang Yan cares so much about a younger brother who is still living outside the family. If he has a good relationship with his aunt, why does he feel that he has no family at all in the Jiang family?

So Jiang Suizhi suspected Jiang Yu more than Jiang Heling from the very beginning.

He started his investigation when he had nothing, and it took him so many years to find any clues.

He came back once after the New Year's Day. He overheard his grandfather talking about the day when Jiang Yu mentioned that Jiang Yan had a girlfriend, and he knew what was going on.

However, Jiang Yu still has to provide the evidence himself, which is why we had that conversation today.

Jiang Yu must have been unable to sit still, otherwise she would not have taken the initiative to mention this matter to her grandfather. The reason why she was unable to sit still was very simple, that is, she also found out the news about Yue Qing and the child.

Now that Jiang's position in the country has stabilized, and it has even gained a certain degree of fame internationally, she has already taken full advantage of it. Originally, if she eliminated Jiang Yan, there would only be Jiang Hechang left, which was the easiest thing to do.

By then, there will be no one left in Jiang Hechang's lineage. Even if the division of property falls on Grandpa Jiang, he is old and will eventually give it to the other two children. However, Jiang Heling himself is not very smart and can't cause any trouble at all.

But Jiang Yu probably didn't expect that Jiang Hechang would bring another son home in the middle of the journey, nor did he expect why two children would appear in the country.

Jiang Suizhi could understand everything except this point.

Since Jiang Yu has a base abroad and can even track down the movements of Yue Qing and the two children, how could he leave the children and Yue Qing alone for three years after passing the news to Jiang Yan?

With her meticulousness, it should be impossible.

So the biggest possibility is that she also lost contact with Yueqing and the children at that time, and only recently had a clue and couldn't wait any longer.

Yue Qing had no support or background abroad, so how did he manage to escape and return home under Jiang Yu's nose?

This may also be one of the reasons why she gave up her identity as a mother and let her two children call her aunt.

President Jiang completed his logic again.
