Ning Hao gave a wry smile. "You're not asking for much. I'm probably the most suitable person to be on the same wavelength as you. Others either have to accommodate you or tolerate you temporarily. After a while, you'll naturally get bored."
Anyway, I feel that spiritual resonance isn't about appearance or how long you've known each other. It's like it's preordained. Maybe you're the one my mother sent to rescue me, the most suitable person for me, the one I can spend my whole life with.
When Qiao Jie and Ning Zhengtao returned from their walk, they heard Ning Hao's words. Qiao Jie shook his head with a smile, "Your grandson is practically a genius. He's trying to kidnap my granddaughter, who's so young?"
Ning Zhengtao smiled ingratiatingly, "How could that be? Who is your Jiang Qiao? Does anyone think they can just seduce her? Let someone else try it. If you don't beat them to a pulp, I'll change my surname to yours."
Qiao Jie sighed, "Young people have their own ideas. I'm an old man, so I won't get involved in this. If you like it, then stick with it. My Qiao'er is still young, but she has big ideas. Anyway, I'm not worried about my granddaughter. You should talk to your grandson properly. The two of them are quite different in age. If you can't stick with it, then don't provoke my granddaughter."
Ning Zhengtao put his arm around Qiao Jie's arm and said, "Brother, after all these years, you still can't see what kind of person Haozi is? That kid is similar to Qiao'er. In my opinion, these two kids are quite suitable. No matter what, there are no problems for now, so let the two kids get along freely. I can't guarantee how far they will go in the future."
However, I know my grandson well; he wouldn't have said that if he hadn't already made up his mind. So, let's both calm down.
Qiao Jie smiled, pushed open the door and went into his room. Seeing the tea already brewed in the teapot, the old man sighed, "Let me tell you, my granddaughter won't get married early. The child is still young, and there's me as a burden. Have you thought it through?"
Ning Zhengtao poured tea for the old man and himself. "Brother, you can drink your tea in peace. Anyway, I like Qiao'er. If the two of them can really get together in the future, it might be a relief for Haozi."
Haozi is a child who keeps things to himself and doesn't like to talk to others. Only Qiao'er is someone he can confide in. Maybe our two families will really become in-laws in the future.
"Then my wife and I will be so lucky. No one can compare to Qiao'er. Look how well she takes care of you, old man. Where else can you find such a good child? Even a biological child couldn't do this."
Qiao Jie was naturally very satisfied with his granddaughter. "That's right. Don't look down on me just because I, Qiao Jie, have never had any children. I'm lucky, much luckier than that Wang Dahua."
Old Ning, I won't interfere with how the children get along, but there's one thing you need to understand: I don't like your son or your unfortunate daughter-in-law. Don't think I'm being harsh, but after all these years, do you think I can't see what kind of people they are?
If your son and daughter-in-law cause any trouble for my Qiao'er, don't blame me, as her grandfather, for turning my back on them. If you really push me too far, smashing their pots and pans will be the least of my worries.
Ning Zhengtao sighed, "Brother, let me tell you the truth. Sons grow up and become independent, daughters grow up and become independent. The kids are all grown up, and I can't control them anymore. They don't listen to us either. If they ever cause any trouble for you, don't hesitate to help them."
Jiang Qiao and Ning Hao had already heard the sounds from next door and knew that the old man had returned, so they got back to their main topic.
"Qiao'er, I need to think this over carefully. If possible, have your friend help me find a way. I need to get evidence that she poisoned my mother..."
Ning Hao told Jiang Qiao about his mother's condition and symptoms back then.
Jiang Qiao said with a serious expression, "Ning Hao, the investigation will probably end up requiring an autopsy. Are you prepared for that?"
Ning Hao nodded, his face solemn. "As long as we can find out the cause of my mother's death, even if we have to exhume her body for an autopsy, I'm afraid my mother won't blame me."
In fact, Jiang Qiao already had a guess in her heart. The fact that the disease could develop so quickly and that the person could not survive for long was most likely due to heavy metal poisoning. She just didn't know where that woman got this stuff from.
"Since you've made up your mind, I'll go out and make some contacts in a bit. If I leave, I'll have someone come directly to you. If there's anything you need, just tell them. Have you thought this through? There's no turning back now."
"Okay, let's wait for the investigation results. My mom herself is also suspicious. Right now, I just want to know the results."
Jiang Qiao sighed, "Okay, you go and keep my grandfather company first. I'll go out and contact someone."
When Ning Hao arrived, the two old men were having a pleasant chat over tea.
"You brat, I didn't expect you to still have your eyes on our Qiao'er."
Ning Hao chuckled and said, "Grandpa Qiao, look at what you're saying. There's an old saying, 'A family with a daughter is sought after by a hundred families.' Why can't I be one?"
"After all, I'm someone you've watched grow up. With Jiang Qiao as our granddaughter, and since I've been helping out, you can't object to this, okay? We're helping each other out, aren't we?"
Qiao Jie smiled and pointed at Ning Hao, "You little rascal, you never do things that will make you lose out. Let me tell you, from now on, whether it works out or not, you have to tell my Qiao'er the truth. I don't want you to be out there having a good time and lying to my granddaughter that you're waiting for her at home. That's not going to happen."
"Don't worry, don't worry, my mom didn't teach me this, and I don't know how to do it either."
Jiang Qiao contacted Song Shutian, and upon learning of her request, Song Shutian agreed without hesitation.
"Okay, I'll send someone to contact Ning Hao later. Little girl, come visit sometime. Food and lodging will be provided. After all, you're a great contributor."
Jiang Qiao chuckled on the other end of the phone, "We'll talk about this later. Remember, you really need to take this seriously. Okay, I won't bother you any longer, I'm hanging up."
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Qiao dialed Gu Zhengfeng's number again.
"Girl, don't worry, your grandma and grandpa are here. They said they'd help take care of you during your postpartum period."
Jiang Qiao was stunned. "Didn't you say you weren't coming? Why are you here again all of a sudden?"
Gu Zhengfeng was about to explain something when someone outside the door informed him that Wen Jingwan had gone into labor: "Girl, girl, your mother is about to give birth. I'm on my way. We'll talk when you get here."
Jiang Qiao sighed, somewhat annoyed, and put down the phone to get the tickets from Song Zhi.
"What? Your mom gave birth?"
"It just started, it'll probably take some time, Uncle. Is there anything I can do for you?"
Song Zhi didn't stand on ceremony. "Get some good food and send it to your older brother. That kid is probably craving it right now. You know, back then he could at least go home and have a treat, but now he can only mooch off your family."
"What's the big deal? I'll bring my brother food every day from now on. I'm off."
