Chapter 346: Human Hearts Are Evil

It was not until Song Shiwei was three years old that the news that Jiang Zhaorong had been promoted and married to the daughter of the Grand Tutor spread like wildfire and reached Du Wen's ears, and Du Wen finally gave up.

At that time, the news came that her husband had died while trying to save Jiang Zhaorong. Du Wen had no desire to live anymore, and she fell ill overnight.

When Jiang Zhaorong came to see her again, Du Wen was already terminally ill and could not be cured.

"I don't blame you," Jiang Zhaorong still remembers the way she smiled at him while she was seriously ill and lying on the bed: "I was greedy. You saved my life, but I still dreamed of those things. Now, it's all my retribution."

"I also raised your daughter for you, which is all my repayment for your kindness."

"Zhaorong, we are even now."

The knock on the door brought Jiang Zhaorong back to his senses. The gentleness in his eyes suddenly turned into sharpness. He put the letter away and asked, "What's the matter?"

"My Lord, Aunt Tao has cooked a table of dishes herself and sent someone to invite you to have dinner with her."

Jiang Zhaorong's eyes flashed with impatience, and he said "I know, I'll go there in a minute."

The person outside the door responded, and when the noise disappeared, Jiang Zhaorong stood up, glanced at the place where the letter was placed, and turned to leave. After

he closed the door and left, a figure quietly climbed in...

After dinner, and with Taohong always serving him, Jiang Zhaorong felt relieved and went down the stairs. He was affectionate with her for a long time, and sent someone to bring the child in, teasing him for a while, and spent a warm parent-child time.

But Jiang Zhaorong did have some official business to deal with today. Half of the ministers in the court were missing, and the remaining people were not clear about their burdens.

After resting for a while, Jiang Zhaorong returned to the study.

He glanced at the desk and paused.

The person hiding in the dark took a breath.

But before long, Jiang Zhaorong walked over with a normal expression as if he had not noticed anything.

...

The chef in charge of cooking in the Xu Mansion is called A Yuan. As the saying goes, nine out of ten chefs are fat, and he is no exception.

It seemed to be particularly cold today. A Yuan was awakened by the cold in his sleep. He saw a window open in a daze, and got up to close it with a curse.

After closing it and looking back, he saw a figure sitting at the table. It was pitch black and he couldn't see anything clearly.

Ah Yuan was startled, and his sleepiness flew away as if with wings. His

big round eyes stared at him, and he was particularly awake.

"Who are you? How did you get in? What do you want to do?"

He said as he moved carefully towards the door.

He Yanting saw all his movements, but did not stop him. He whispered, "I think your cooking skills are amazing. Would you like to follow me?"

Ah Yuan: "???"

He paused.

Follow him? But this guy doesn't look like a good person at first glance...

Ah Yuan was thinking, and He Yanting seemed to know what he was thinking, and put a bulging bag on the table.

Ah Yuan: "..."

He walked over tentatively, opened the bag tremblingly, and was almost blinded by the gold bars inside.

His hands couldn't help shaking.

This money is enough to buy hundreds of him.

He swallowed his saliva, and his tone became a little flattering: "Young Master, let me make it clear that I will not do anything to harm others."

He still retained some rationality. If this man wanted him to harm the Xu family, he would not do it no matter how much money he was offered.

The Xu family treated him well.

Thinking of this, A Yuan hesitated again.

The masters of the Xu family were the best masters he had ever seen.

They would not treat them as inferiors, beat and scold them like animals, and joke with them in their spare time...

Although the monthly salary was not that much, it was better to live a comfortable life.

This man looked like a gangster, fighting and killing on weekdays. It was not worth it to lose his life for money.

Even if you have money, you still need a life to spend it.

He Yanting also saw his hesitation, and before the hesitation in his eyes turned into determination, he spoke first: "Don't worry, we're just going to the General's Mansion to cook. If it's not enough," he threw another bag of gold bars over: "Is this enough?"

A Yuan: "... Enough, enough! Young Master is really generous!"

He smiled so hard that his mouth couldn't close: "Young Master, don't worry, I'll go tomorrow!"

...

The next morning, after everyone had dinner, Xu Yanli looked at A Yuan and whispered: "Have you found a new place?"

A Yuan nodded: "It's the General's Mansion."

General's Mansion?

Everyone was startled, and then looked at Jiang Zhiyu.

Jiang Zhiyu: "???"

[Why are you looking at me? ]

[Why is A Yuan leaving? I really like the food he cooks. 】

【But if I go to the General's Mansion, I have to find an excuse to go to my good brother's place to eat and drink for free. 】

Upon hearing this, everyone's faces turned ugly.

Jiang Kangan put down his bowl and chopsticks, making a crisp sound.

The conversation that day seemed to have no effect, and this kid has become even more powerful!

Using this method to attract young fish, dirty!!!

People are sinister!!!

Although they were ashamed of He Yanting's behavior, they did not stop A Yuan.

Since He Yanting came to poach people, the benefits he gave were naturally very good.

They couldn't cut off A Yuan's financial path.

Except for Jiang Zhiyu, everyone else ate without any appetite. After the meal, everyone else had things to do, so Jiang Kangan and Jiang Zhiyu were the only ones left.

When Jiang Kangan was about to leave, another servant came to report: "The third prince wants to see the young lady, saying that he has something important to discuss."

Jiang Kangan paused for a moment when he stood up, and then sat back down again.

After entering the mansion, Jiang Zhiyu saw that Xiao Mingye did not come alone, but was accompanied by someone.

[Dog!]

Du Chen: "..."

He glared at Xiao Mingye angrily.

What's wrong with this man? His mouth is like a colander, and he says everything?

Because of his anger, he didn't notice what was wrong.

Jiang Kangan and Xiao Mingye raised their lips.

"I heard that Miss Jiang likes vegetarian snacks. It's rude of us to visit without sending a visiting card. As an apology, I hope Miss Jiang will accept these snacks."

Du Chen said softly, secretly stepping on Xiao Mingye's foot.

He was told that the capital is not like Youzhou, and you can't do things casually. But he didn't listen and insisted on coming early in the morning. Come if you want, and even call me!

The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. Du Chen stepped on her a few more times.

He didn't hold back, but stepped down firmly. Xiao Mingye gritted his teeth, with a sly smile on his face.

The two were close to each other, so Du Chen stepped secretly, and with the cover of his robe, it was not easy for others to find out.

But Xiao Mingye's expression changed too obviously, and anyone could guess it.

[Bumped, bumped.]

Du Chen: "???"

He saw it clearly now, but Jiang Zhiyu clearly didn't say anything, so how did he hear her voice?
