Jiang Che, who was standing to the side, saw his uncle and aunt pulling him into the mess and hurriedly said, "Grandpa, Uncle, Aunt, it's not that I don't want to speak up for Siyu. Siyu is my sister, and I will definitely choose to help her first. My heart is completely on her side."
However, the person Siyu offended was none other than Sili Jue.
If she offends anyone other than Si Lijue, I can help her smooth things over.
But she just happened to offend Si Lijue, and he even hit his wife. You all know Si Lijue's temper; it was completely useless for me to plead with him.”
He wasn't lying; Si Lijue truly didn't buy into his act.
Old Master Jiang saw that Jiang Che didn't seem to be lying. His face was dark and unreadable, and he was just frowning and thinking to himself.
Seeing that Grandpa Jiang remained silent, Jiang Siyu worried that he would give up on her because of Si Lijue's intimidation, so she hurriedly explained, "Grandpa, I didn't know that woman was Brother Lijue's wife, so I accidentally hit her."
However, she also hit me. Moreover, she didn't hold back; my injuries were clearly more serious than hers.
Besides, ignorance is no excuse. Please help me. If you intervene, Brother Li Jue will definitely do you a favor.
When Jiang Siyu's mother heard what Jiang Che and Jiang Siyu said, she felt that the Jiang family patriarch also needed to step in.
Then, seeing the bruises all over her daughter's body and the scratches on her face, she burst into tears.
"Waaaaah~ My poor daughter! Your injuries must hurt so much!"
Look at your face, it's all disfigured. This eldest daughter-in-law of the Si family went too far. You shouldn't hit someone in the face. How could she scratch your face?
"What if it gets in your way and causes disfigurement? How will you ever get married then?"
She covered her face and cried while peeking through her hands at Old Master Jiang's expression.
Annoyed by her constant wailing, Old Master Jiang shouted, "Alright, stop howling. I'm going to call Si Lijue's father and have him go find his son."
Jiang Siyu's mother immediately stopped crying when she saw that her goal had been achieved.
She wiped away non-existent tears and said to Grandpa Jiang, "I knew Dad wouldn't stand by and watch Siyu suffer. Siyu will definitely be even more filial to you in the future."
Jiang Siyu's father also stood up from the ground, wiped the tears from his face, and said gratefully, "Thank you, Dad. I knew you still loved me and cared for me as your son."
Jiang Siyu's mother hurriedly pulled her daughter up, "Siyu! Are your knees sore from kneeling? Stand up quickly, your grandfather has already agreed to plead for you."
Your grandfather still loves you very much. You must take good care of him in the future, okay?
"Mmm!" Jiang Siyu stood up from the ground and said to Grandpa Jiang in a coquettish tone, "Thank you, Grandpa. Siyu knows that Grandpa loves me the most."
Grandpa Jiang waved his hand, gesturing for his second son's family to sit on the sofa. Then, he looked at his eldest grandson, Jiang Che, with suspicion and asked curiously, "When did that brat Si Lijue get married? How come I didn't know?"
Jiang Che shook his head and answered truthfully, "We don't know when they got married either; it's probably a secret marriage."
However, he and his wife also have a son who is not yet five years old.
Grandpa Jiang glanced at Jiang Che with displeasure and said irritably, "Si Lijue is your good friend and the same age as you."
Other people already have children, and you don't even have a decent girlfriend. It's really embarrassing.
I don't know how that brat from the Si family is so lucky. Why is our Jiang family always a step behind them?
The father was like this, the son was like this, and now it's the grandson's turn, and he's still too slow.
"You'd better hurry up and bring me a great-grandson."
Jiang Che remained silent.
They're talking about Jiang Siyu right now, so why are they turning their attention to me?
To stop Grandpa Jiang from nagging him, Jiang Che quickly said, "Okay, I've remembered everything you said, Grandpa. I will do my best to bring you a great-grandson as soon as possible."
Grandpa Jiang felt much better after hearing his eldest grandson's promise.
He stroked his beard and laughed, "Good, good, good!"
Then, he solemnly instructed the butler, "Dial the phone number of the Si family's old residence and tell them I need to see Si Zhenjiang."
"Yes, sir." The butler acknowledged the order, picked up his phone, dialed the number of the Si family's old residence, found Si Lijue's father, Si Zhenjiang, and handed the phone to Old Master Jiang.
"Hey, Zhenjiang! This is Jiang Zhongfeng." Old Master Jiang introduced himself directly.
Si Zhenjiang's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Uncle Jiang, how are you doing?"
"Great! Everything tastes delicious," Grandpa Jiang replied with a smile.
Si Zhenjiang laughed and said, "Haha, that's good. As long as you're healthy at your age, that's more important than anything else, don't you think, Uncle Jiang?"
“Yes, you’re right,” Old Master Jiang agreed, then continued thoughtfully, “However, there’s something that’s affecting my mood and health. I’m not sure if I should say it?”
"Oh? What's wrong? Uncle Jiang, why don't you tell me and see if I can help?" Si Zhenjiang asked curiously.
Grandpa Jiang stopped beating around the bush and said directly, "Today my little granddaughter accidentally offended your precious son, and he asked me to send Siyu abroad."
Siyu is my source of joy; without her, I can't eat or sleep.
You certainly don't want to see me become unwell because I miss Siyu, right?
"Zhenjiang! As an elder, I've never asked you for a favor before. But this time, I'm begging you, for the sake of my father and me being good friends for so many years, please persuade your brat to let Siyu go this time!"
Si Zhenjiang hesitated for a moment before saying, "Uncle Jiang, although I really want to help you, I know my son well."
Since he has decided to do something, he must have his reasons, and he won't easily change his mind because of my intervention.
The implication was that they didn't want to help and wanted him to find another solution.
When Grandpa Jiang heard the person on the phone refuse his request, he became somewhat angry and said in an unfriendly tone, "Si Zhenjiang, what do you mean? You won't even give me this much face?"
"This is just a small matter, a simple favor. Aren't you willing to help me? Aren't you afraid your deceased father will blame you if he finds out?"
He and the old master of the Si family were close friends, but his son was no match for the old master's son in terms of ability; each generation was worse than the last.
In Jiang Che's generation, in order to change the status quo, he forced Jiang Che to befriend Si Lijue from a young age, hoping to inspire Jiang Che's fighting spirit and make him outdo Si Lijue.
However, after all these years, Jiang Che's abilities and wisdom are still no match for Si Lijue. He is often outmaneuvered by Si Lijue, while his own grandson counts money for him.
His granddaughter, Jiang Siyu, has a crush on Si Lijue and idolizes him greatly.
