Chapter 221 The Crazy General's Contract Wife 54 Wen An



Grandpa did not question her decision.

They immediately sent someone to the Xie family.

They were to draw a portrait of the wet nurse based on Gu Jiangli's description.

This way you can find people based on their appearance.

The sudden influx of many people into the Xie residence naturally caught Xie Shiyan's attention.

He couldn't hide the intentions of these people from him.

Holding the child, he asked Gu Jiangli with some concern, "Why do you want to find your wet nurse?"

He couldn't detect even a trace of hatred towards the wet nurse in Gu Jiangli's expression.

So he was very puzzled as to what exactly was the reason Gu Jiangli was looking for someone.

Gu Jiangli teased the child in Xie Shiyan's arms and laughed:

"She is Hehua's mother. Whether she is dead or alive, Hehua should know where her mother is now."

"The saying goes, 'If he's alive, we should see him; if he's dead, we should see his body.'"

Xie Shiyan looked somewhat displeased. "I've never met your wet nurse, but judging from the fact that she sent you to the army camp, she's not a good person."

"Once you find her, you should immediately cut off her head."

Gu Jiangli curled his lips: "I know. Even if I were to kill my wet nurse for what she did to me, no one would say a bad word about it."

"Then why are you still being so kind? What you should do is not send someone to look for her, but send an assassin to kill her directly."

Xie Shiyan's words make sense.

But more than hatred, she cherished the bond she shared with Lotus.

“I understand what you mean,” Gu Jiangli said with a wistful expression. “Hehua still thinks her mother is a good person. Her mother must have some unspeakable reason for doing such a thing.”

"Lotus is very important to me. I can't kill her mother while she still has beautiful fantasies about her."

“You can just tell her that she was already dead when you found her wet nurse.”

Gu Jiangli shook his head. "Given Hehua's personality, if we directly tell her that her wet nurse is dead, she will definitely do her best to investigate the cause of her mother's death."

"Although Lotus may seem clumsy and dull, once she sets her mind to doing something, she will definitely make it happen."

"By then, the murderer might not be able to hide it from her."

After hearing this, Xie Shiyan's expression became even more displeased. "You treat that Hehua very well, thinking so much about her after all this time."

Gu Jiangli nodded naturally, "She is very loyal and treats me very well, so it is only right that I treat her well as well."

Xie Shiyan snorted coldly, "She's only taken care of you for a few months, and you dare to be so open with her?"

Gu Jiangli was taken aback.

Why does Xie Shiyan have such a strong prejudice against lotus flowers today?

Although he had always looked down on everyone, he mostly ignored his servants.

Now, however, he seems to be on steroids.

Gu Jiangli took a light sniff.

She thought she could smell a sour smell in the room.

She slightly raised her head to look at Xie Shiyan, but he deliberately avoided her gaze and did not meet her eyes.

"No way, Shi Yan?" Gu Jiangli asked, as if he had seen something extremely amusing. "You're not jealous of He Hua, are you?"

Xie Shiyan's ears immediately turned red.

She then took two steps back while holding the child.

Gu Jiangli's hand, which was teasing the child, remained frozen in mid-air.

"Who would be jealous of a woman?" Xie Shiyan firmly denied.

After saying that, he prepared to leave.

Gu Jiangli reached out and called out, "Hey...where are you going?"

Xie Shiyan didn't even turn her head, and walked out with the child in her arms, saying, "Change the diaper."

"Do I need to go to the next room to change diapers?"

The only response she received was the sound of the door closing.

Gu Jiangli lowered his hands and leaned back against the cushion.

She rolled her eyes, and with no other option, could only shout:

"I've been thinking about my child's name for several nights, but I really don't know what to call him."

She said it to thin air.

The door was immediately opened from the outside.

Xie Shiyan came in again with the child in her arms and plopped down on the edge of the bed.

Gu Jiangli couldn't help but laugh: "Have you changed the diaper?"

Xie Shiyan nodded seriously, "It's changed."

"So fast, just as the door opened and closed?"

"I specifically learned how to change diapers, so of course I'm faster than you," he said with a completely frank expression, showing no sign of lying.

Gu Jiangli smiled and decided not to delve any further into the matter.

She continued:

Have you discussed the child's name with the grandmother?

Gu Jiangli remembered that the old lady was the one in the entire Xie family who cared the most about having offspring.

But after the child was born, she almost never saw her.

I heard that she still copies scriptures and prays to Buddha every day, never stepping out of her room, making it difficult for others to even see her.

Gu Jiangli thought that the old lady was the most senior member of the Xie family, so it was a good thing to listen to the elders' opinions on things like naming the child.

Since Madam Xie isn't coming to see her, then let Xie Shiyan go find her.

Xie Shiyan said calmly, "Grandmother gave us a name, but she said it was too simple. If we don't like it, we should think of another one."

Gu Jiangli became interested and asked, "What name did Grandmother give you?"

"Wen An."

Xie Shiyan's eyes were gentle, and his thin lips parted slightly. The two words seemed to carry a special tone, making people feel as if they were in a trance.

Gu Jiangli raised the corners of her lips, "Does Grandmother think we wouldn't like this name?"

"Yes, she said that the parents of children from aristocratic families all hope that their children will achieve great things in the future and, ideally, leave a lasting legacy."
