Chi Heng?
After hearing this, Third Uncle and Uncle Zhong looked at each other. If they remembered correctly, Qin's mother's surname seemed to be Chi.
In other words, he now has his mother's surname?
If this happened in the Jiang family, it would not be surprising.
After all, Shen Xiuwen married into the Jiang family.
However, the Qin family has been a single-line family for eight generations. Old Master Qin is a traditional person and attaches great importance to issues such as inheritance.
No matter from which perspective, the Qin family would never want him to change his surname.
"What's wrong?" After seeing Jiang Si finish her words, Third Uncle's eyes were fixed on the packages of pastries on the table.
He picked it up and took a few glances. "Is there something wrong with these cakes?"
As he spoke, he took another closer look.
There doesn’t seem to be anything special about them, they are all famous old brands in Beijing.
Jiang Si certainly knew that these pastries were all time-honored brands in Beijing.
"The pastries are fine."
After a pause, she added, "I just feel that his apology is a bit too thoughtful and thorough."
If he comes to apologize in person, you can say that this shows that he has good personal upbringing and knows etiquette.
These expensive old-fashioned pastries are specially selected.
It can also be roughly explained that the Qin family is well-off and can afford this little money.
But the problem is that these old brands are far away from each other, and it is not easy to get them all together in a short period of time.
If it's just pure care, then it's fine.
But what if it isn’t?
Thinking about what happened before, Jiang Si was terrified.
There are so many quadrangles in Beijing, why did they choose the Li family so much?
He didn't move earlier or later, but on the day they signed the contract.
It was just so coincidental that when he came to apologize, he 'happened' to recognize his third uncle.
Jiang Si couldn't believe that there were so many combinations in the world.
If it wasn't a coincidence, then this was a carefully planned and calculated... plot!
And this is what Jiang Si can't understand the most.
Logically speaking, the wealth accumulated by the Qin family is enough to ensure that the Qin family will live worry-free for generations.
If he just wanted to make money, there would be no need for him to come back and wade into this mess.
If he's not seeking wealth, then what is he doing it for?
When Uncle Zhong heard this, he looked at Jiang Si with an hesitation.
He didn't say anything at the time, but after Guard Chen brought Jiang Si back to the old house, Uncle Zhong couldn't help but mention it to his third uncle.
"Old man, that kid from the Qin family, he's going through all this trouble, isn't it because of Miss Si Si?"
In fact, he noticed it when he was eating just now.
Although the boy from the Qin family didn't say much, he would glance at his young lady from time to time.
And the cakes he gave me.
Uncle Zhong opened them one by one and took a look. Although there were many types of pastries, those were indeed Miss Sisi's favorites.
Regarding this point, Third Uncle did not deny it. He had lived for most of his life and had encountered all kinds of people.
"The way that boy looked at Si Si...was certainly not innocent."
Uncle Zhong smiled when he heard this and said that he was not mistaken.
After all, he had seen this look in his brother-in-law many times.
"I'm saying, every time this kid from the Qin family came to our house, my uncle's face would become sour..."
Speaking of this, Uncle Zhong couldn't help but sigh.
I don’t know how the son-in-law would react if he knew that this man not only returned to his country, but also had ulterior motives towards Miss Si Si?
It was as if there was a telepathic reaction, Uncle Zhong just muttered a few words.
Huo Tingzhou, who was thousands of miles away, had already dialed the phone number of the old house.
He didn't know what was wrong with him, even though he had made the call in the afternoon.
But because he couldn't talk to his wife, he always felt empty inside.
So as soon as he finished dinner, he called home on time.
Jiang Si was surprised when she received the call and joked with a smile.
"Didn't you call this afternoon?"
After saying that, she looked at the two little guys who were sleeping soundly on the sofa.
"Sui Sui and Zhao Zhao are already asleep. If you want to talk to them, call back early tomorrow."
Huo Tingzhou choked.
The two little guys can’t speak yet, what does he talk to them about?
Seeing that his wife's mind was not on this at all, Huo Tingzhou took the initiative to change the subject.
"How was your work today? Was it going well?"
“It’s not going well.”
Although he couldn't come back for a while, Jiang Si did not hide his thoughts.
She spent several minutes thereafter.
He told the whole story about how the design plan had been questioned and how the courtyard house had been intercepted.
Huo Tingzhou tightened his grip on the receiver. No wonder his wife's tone of voice was so low these days.
He was just about to say a few words of comfort when Jiang Si's voice came again.
"Huo Tingzhou, I have something else to tell you."
She rarely called him by his full name in this tone.
Huo Tingzhou's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. "What's the matter?"
Jiang Si was silent for a moment, "Then who's back?"
Huo Tingzhou was confused, "Who's back?"
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a few seconds. After a moment, Jiang Si said, "Qin Shian—"
