Only then did Ling Ran feel at ease to go to the construction site. He was very busy and could not always be with his wife, which gave the peacocks an opportunity to take advantage of them.
On the first day of February, Ling Ran went to the construction site early and then ran back. He wanted to face it together with his wife.
Around ten o'clock, the children had all been fed and fallen asleep. Guo Xuehua went upstairs to call for help, saying that someone from the Kong family had arrived.
Zhou Xiang shook Guo Xuehua's slightly trembling hand, "Sister Guo, it's okay, don't worry."
Guo Xuehua nodded vigorously, trying hard to calm himself down.
Ling Ran accompanied his wife downstairs. Downstairs, an old woman with a wrinkled face stood next to Kong Qianchen. The old woman looked to be in her seventies or eighties.
Seeing the two people coming downstairs, the old woman looked Zhou Xiang up and down for a while. She looked even more arrogant than Ma Shasha's mother, as if she was not only looking at the goods, but also the cheap goods on the street stalls that people looked down upon.
Looking at the pleading expression on Kong Qianchen's face beside the old woman, Zhou Xiang decided to endure it for the time being because Kong Qianchen reminded him.
After sitting down calmly with Ling Ran, Zhou Xiang picked up the teacup on the dining table, took a sip, and then gently put it down. Hmm! Not bad, knowing that she didn't like the Kong family, she brought out tea leaves to entertain her.
Seeing Zhou Xiang's calm demeanor, the old woman put down the cup in her hand. After all, he was a country bumpkin. Not only did he brew unpalatable tea, he also used tea leaves to brew tea for guests. It would be better to serve boiled water directly! He had learned etiquette poorly.
"Miss Zhou?"
Zhou Xiang opened her red lips and smiled slightly, "Yes! I wonder who this lady is?"
Isn't it just pretending? Who can't do that?
The old woman signaled her cousin to introduce himself to Miss Zhou, as her own introduction was always incomplete.
Kong Qianchen coughed lightly, "Miss Zhou, this is my great aunt, Ms. Kong Yuhan."
Zhou Xiang nodded slightly, "Ms. Kong."
Kong Yuhan glanced at her nephew. Does she need someone else to do such a simple introduction? Can't she do it herself?
"Miss Zhou, I came to your house today because I have something to ask you. Please answer truthfully."
Zhou Xiang nodded, "Okay, I like to tell the truth."
Kong Qianchen raised his hand to cover his mouth, trying to stop the laughter that was about to burst out. This little liar always spoke nonsense in a serious manner.
Ling Ran glared at Kong Qianchen fiercely. There was no need to guess, Kong Qianchen had fallen in love with his wife.
Kong Qianchen glared back at Ling Ran provocatively. He already liked Zhou Xiang, so what? A good woman deserves to be liked.
Regardless of whether Zhou wanted to tell the truth or not, Kong Yuhan had to come and ask. The granddaughter was her continuation and the continuation of the Kong family. She had to find her granddaughter.
"Miss Zhou, my granddaughter Yu Ying offended you. After her cousin and uncle brought her here to apologize, she disappeared that night. Does Miss Zhou have any leads?"
Zhou Xiang laughed in his heart. This was a very clever statement. "Ms. Kong, I only learned about Yu Ying's disappearance when I ran into the head of the Kong family the day before yesterday.
On the 17th day of the first lunar month, she took advantage of the Zhou family's hundred-day banquet, drugged a waiter, and entered the Zhou family pretending to be a waiter. She also took advantage of a woman who was not on good terms with me and came to my house to make a big fuss, attracting everyone's attention.
She secretly went upstairs and took away two blankets. A dagger was stuck in the other blanket. If I hadn't felt panic before the 100-day banquet, if I hadn't thought twice and changed the three blankets, I don't think any of my three children would have survived.
At that time, when I saw the scene upstairs, even though it was a fake blanket, it still made me panic. At that time, I was so glad that I was more careful, otherwise..."
Zhou Xiang paused for a moment and sighed deeply, "Otherwise, even if it means destroying the heavens and the earth, I will find the enemy and avenge the children.
Such a plan full of loopholes, needless to say, was done by the Kong family. I invited Manager Kong to attend the banquet and called the head of the Kong family.
Then, in the evening of the next day, Patriarch Kong, Patriarch Kong, and Miss Kong Xianxian brought Yu Ying to apologize.
Since no real tragedy happened, I can't be unreasonable, especially since the old master of the Kong family apologized in person and made compensation, so I forgave Yu Ying.
As for me, one is one and two is two. Forgiveness is forgiveness, just like I don’t agree to reconcile with the Kong family. I have always had this answer, never reconcile.
So, I really don't know how Yu Ying disappeared, and I really want to know why she disappeared. Why did she disappear at this critical juncture after coming to my Zhou family? Isn't it too coincidental?
Kong Yuhan frowned. He had a lot to say this week, but there was no clue about Yu Ying's disappearance. Instead, he took the opportunity to complain.
"Miss Zhou, I didn't discipline her properly. After I find her, I will definitely teach her a lesson. I apologize to you for what she did. Please forgive me!"
Kong Yuhan stood up and bowed slightly to Zhou Xiang. Zhou Xiang stood up and moved away. She was not willing to accept the so-called apology on her behalf. The person who really did the wrong thing didn't even give her an apology. It was these so-called elders who apologized on her behalf.
And he said that he would teach her a lesson when he got home, but he was just fooling outsiders. He was reluctant to even say the word "lesson", only "education". Haha, I have personally taught her how to behave for you, don't thank me too much,
"Ms. Kong, there's no need to be so polite. I've already said that I've forgiven her, so there's no need for you to apologize. You should look for clues elsewhere! If I have any leads, I'll notify Manager Kong."
Zhou Xiang's obvious attitude of sending the guests away made Kong Yuhan not stay any longer to test the waters. "Okay! Then please pay more attention, Miss Zhou. Yu Ying is my most beloved grandchild and has a talent for pharmaceuticals.
By the way, I heard that the medicinal powder made by Miss Zhou is also very powerful, even surpassing my most talented cousin."
Zhou Xiang waved his hands repeatedly. "Ms. Kong, you're flattering me. My pharmaceutical skills are a late bloomer. I only learned a few secret manuals from Captain Tang. How can they compare to the Kong family's heritage?"
"But at your wedding, you not only drugged my cousin, you also undosed him."
"Ms. Kong, there must be some misunderstanding here. Can the head of the Kong family please tell me in person? How much medicine powder did I use to knock that person out that day?"
Kong Qianchen, who was enjoying Zhou Xiang's endless lies, was suddenly called out and pretended to cough a few times, "Cough cough cough, I used three bowls of medicine powder."
Kong Yuhan hadn't heard of this dosage before. Three bowls? It seemed his level was average! "Then how did you manage to cure everyone's illness?"
Zhou Xiang blinked his eyes and said, "Ms. Kong, this is about pharmaceutical secrets. Are you trying to discuss pharmaceutical technology with me?"
Kong Yuhan paused. She knew nothing about pharmaceuticals. Forget it. If she couldn't catch up with her cousin in pharmaceuticals this week, she probably wouldn't be able to make medicinal powders like bone-dissolving powder. Moreover, since the secret manual was obtained from Tang Ganwen, it was impossible for Tang Ganwen to take out such a vicious secret manual.
"I don't know much about pharmaceutical technology. Sorry to bother you. We need to look elsewhere. Bye."
"I'll take you there."
"No, no, please stay."
