Chapter 123: What a Fortune
Mrs. Jiang was very angry. Several people had no doubt that if the situation did not allow it, she would have flown to J City right away to give Miss Li a big slap.
Jiang Wentao tried his best to persuade the two children and proved that they had not suffered any harm, and Mrs. Jiang gave up for the time being.
But after calming down, he couldn't help feeling a little ashamed of his previous suspicion of Du Anrao. At the same time, he was also glad that Du's mother recognized her daughter in time and gave her son a glimmer of hope.
However, Jiang Changbin and his son also made it clear to their mother and brother in advance that Duanrao was not sure he could completely solve his brother's problems, so if their expectations were not met, they should not blame others.
Mrs. Jiang was not an unreasonable person. When she heard her husband and son say this, she rolled her eyes at them.
"The fact that the child has the heart to help is a great blessing for our family. Not only are you not grateful, but you are also blaming them. Am I the kind of person who repays kindness with enmity?"
Jiang Changbin: “…” Well, I am judging others by my own standards.
Because of all these things, Mrs. Jiang had already activated her filter for Du Anrao before she even met her. On the day they met, she recognized this new niece almost at first sight. She walked up to Du Anrao, took her hand, and led her into the house affectionately.
"You must be An An, right? Your uncle has told me everything about you. My dear child, you have suffered a lot outside these years, right? It doesn't matter, just come back. If you are wronged outside in the future, tell your parents or your uncle and aunt. We will definitely take care of it for you and won't let anyone bully you!"
Although it was not a weekend, everyone in the Du family was concerned about Jiang Younian's situation and was worried that Duan Rao would be in danger, so everyone followed.
Seeing this scene, he subconsciously turned around and looked at the Jiang father and son inquiringly.
Jiang Changbin spread his hands helplessly, looking helpless as if he didn't know how to explain it.
Du Anrao thought that his aunt was trying to please him because of his second cousin's matter, and he sighed inwardly: How pitiful are the parents in the world.
He patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, aunt. I will never let my second cousin get into trouble. Even if I can't solve this problem because of my lack of skills, you can call my master. My master is amazing!"
Mrs. Jiang was so moved that her eyes were red: "Good, good, good, what a good child."
Du Anrao: “???” I always felt like something was not right.
However, this matter really does not require Duanrao's ignorant master to step in.
As soon as she entered the ward, Du Anrao felt an unusual smell, which made her subconsciously cover her nose and take a half step back.
Everyone who had been paying close attention to her immediately looked over: "An An, what's wrong?"
"There seems to be a pungent smell in there, don't you smell it?"
"A pungent smell?" Du Yihan sniffed twice. "The smell of disinfectant?"
"It seems to be..." Duan Rao slightly loosened his nose and sniffed, "The smell of blood."
"Smell of blood?" Du's mother was surprised, "Younian, are you injured?"
Jiang Younian was confused: "No."
Even the other members of the Jiang family couldn't help but change their expressions, thinking secretly, the reason why Jiang Younian was inexplicably weak during this period was that he was bleeding somewhere and they didn't notice it?
But this doesn't make sense. After all, they have done a lot of tests during this period, and they would definitely be able to find out where the internal bleeding is.
Du Anrao stared at Jiang Younian for a long time, and suddenly turned his gaze to the bedside table beside the bed.
"What's in there?"
Everyone's eyes were instantly focused on the bedside table. Jiang Changbin was the first to react. He walked over and pulled the drawer, and the things inside came into view.
Everyone subconsciously looked over and saw an ancient jade with red and white stripes, which was ordinary and nothing special.
Du Anrao took a look at the black fog and blood that were surging like thick smoke, and silently took half a step back.
This action undoubtedly explained her attitude. Jiang Changbin subconsciously retracted his hand and asked tremblingly: "Is there any problem with this peace locket?"
"This is a big problem." Duan Rao covered his nose and spoke in a buzzing voice, "If I'm not mistaken, this should be a... burial object."
"Funerary objects?!" The Jiang family members in the ward almost turned into screaming chickens.
The Du family members couldn't help but stare with wide eyes: "Why are there funeral objects in Younian's ward?"
After the initial shock, the eyes of several people in the Jiang family were all focused on Jiang Wentao.
"Brother, what on earth is going on? This thing..."
"This thing was given to me by a good friend of many years. It is said that jade can nourish people, and the peace locket symbolizes smoothness and health." Jiang Wentao's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. Obviously, he did not expect that his good friend of many years would stab him in the back.
"Jade can indeed nourish people, but this piece does not include jade." Du Anrao took the handkerchief handed to him by his second brother, covered his mouth and nose before he dared to move closer to see the true appearance of the jade.
"This blood jade was buried with the tomb owner. Judging from its texture and color, it was probably placed in the tomb owner's mouth by someone and absorbed the tomb owner's resentment and blood after his death, which led to its current appearance."
Everyone in the ward felt horrified when they heard Du Anran say this. What kind of good person would stuff something into a dead person's mouth?
Jiang Younian, the biggest victim, got goosebumps all over his body. You know, not long after his father brought the jade home, he took a fancy to it and started wearing it.
During this period of time, this thing has been lying on his chest, accompanying him in eating, sleeping and living. It was not taken off until he was admitted to the hospital, but it was placed in the place closest to him.
When Jiang Younian first knew that this thing was a burial object, he felt goosebumps all over his body.
Now that he knew that this thing was actually taken out of a dead person's mouth, he wanted to rush out and find a river to jump into, so as to brush his face a hundred or eighty times and wash himself clean.
"The things brought out of the tomb are already full of Yin energy. The longer they are kept, the more Yin energy they have. Judging from the color of this jade, it must be an old item. And judging by the evil energy it has... I'm afraid the tomb owner died a violent death."
"Is there any explanation for this?"
"People who died suddenly have the most resentment and are often unwilling to accept their fate. To put it bluntly, this jade is full of negative energy. People who wear it are infected by resentment and evil spirits, their emotions fluctuate, and their bodies become weaker and weaker. When did my uncle get this thing?"
"It was more than a month ago. I just don't like wearing jade, so I kept it in the study after I brought it home. Later, your second cousin saw it and liked it, so he took it and wore it."
"How long did my second cousin wear it before this?"
"About half a month later, I fainted and went to the hospital, so I took it off."
Du Anrao silently glanced at Jiang Younian with sympathy in his eyes.
[He is so lucky. He only fainted after wearing it for half a month. It seems that my second cousin is still a virgin. His yang energy is strong and he has not lost it yet. He must have suppressed it a little. Otherwise...]
Everyone in the room: "!!!"
Jiang Younian: “…”
