Chapter 219: The Tampered Amulet



Chapter 219 The Talisman That Was Tampered With

The moment they saw Grandpa Jiang, the youngsters all sat up straight in silence.

"Grandpa."

Grandpa Jiang nodded and walked over to sit down.

He first glanced at Jiang Su and Lu Xuexi. He

had watched Xuexi grow up, and although she had always behaved well at home, he had always known that she had some problems.

But since she was not a family member, he was too lazy to care.

He also did not ask about the "fight" between Jiang Su and Xuexi, but seeing that Jiang Su had started to get close to Xuxu, he was still very happy about it.

Grandpa Jiang then looked at the brothers Jiang Han and Jiang Huai, and finally at Jiang Xuxu's face, and then he spoke casually,

"Just now Ah Su said that it was unnecessary to help those people. Do you think that after Grandpa reminded those people, why did he send bodyguards to protect them and prevent those children from getting hurt?"

"Because Grandpa is kind and can't bear to see those children get hurt."

Lu Xuexi always knows how to please the elders, so she was the first to speak.

Grandpa Jiang just frowned and didn't say anything when he heard this, and turned to look at the other children.

Although Jiang Han didn't know why his grandfather suddenly asked this, he still answered according to Lu Xuexi's words, and added,

"These families are all well-known figures in Hai City, and many of them are on good terms with our family. Even if it is the Gu family, whose relationship with our family is not that good, we certainly can't sit idly by when we know that their children will be in danger."

The old man nodded slightly after listening to Jiang Han's words, and looked at Jiang Huai again, but his eyes only paused for a moment, and when he met his smiling eyebrows, he automatically passed by and turned to look at Jiang Xuxu,

"Xuxu, what do you think?"

Jiang Xuxu narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard this, and then spoke in a light voice,

"Because of human nature."

"Oh?" Old Man Jiang raised his eyebrows slightly, "Tell me about it."

Jiang Xuxu said,

"Grandpa reminded the other party today. If the other party accepted Grandpa's reminder and escaped a disaster, he might express gratitude afterwards.

But if the other party did not accept Grandpa's reminder and caused an accident, they would not blame themselves for not listening to the warnings of others, but would only blame us for not trying our best to stop him.

This is human nature."

As soon as Jiang Xuxu said this, the hall seemed to fall into silence.

Grandpa Jiang's eyes were heavy, and there was not much expression on his face. Jiang Huai did not speak, but there was a bit of complexity in his peach blossom eyes when he looked at Jiang Xuxu.

Jiang Su and Jiang Han also had an inexplicable feeling.

Lu Xuexi couldn't help but speak.

"Xu Xu, why do you think so?"

Her tone was a mixture of disapproval and sympathy.

"Maybe the people you came into contact with in the past were not very good, which makes you think that people are selfish. But the parents in the kindergarten are not what you think. They are all well-educated and reasonable. It is definitely not what you think."

She seemed to be expressing the one-sidedness of Jiang Xuxu's words, but her words seemed to be hinting at and reminding the people around her that Jiang Xuxu's heart was too dark.

Jiang Xuxu just glanced at her coldly, "The idea is too pure and kind, we usually call it the Virgin Mary."

"Puff!" Jiang Su on the side couldn't help laughing, and quickly covered his mouth in a fake manner, raised his eyebrows at Lu Xuexi and said,

"I'm not laughing at you, I just think the word Virgin Mary is very good."

Lu Xuexi was embarrassed and her face turned red. If it weren't for Mr. Jiang still here, she would have just turned around and ran away.

Jiang Han on the side couldn't bear to see Jiang Su and Jiang Xuxu squeezing Lu Xuexi like this, and immediately warned the two with his eyes.

Jiang Xuxu didn't even bother to read his warning.

She added,

"We in Taoism believe in cause and effect. Even if you have the ability to see destiny, you should not interfere with other people's destiny easily. Once you interfere, you must be responsible to the end."

Old Master Jiang looked at her, with a hint of relief in his eyes

. "Xu Xu is right. Since you choose to do it, you must not leave any reason for others to attack you, otherwise you would rather not do anything from the beginning."

He said, his eyes slowly scanning the children in the hall, "You must learn to see and think about these things in the future."

Jiang Su was thoughtful, but Jiang Xuxu's words undoubtedly opened up a new world for him.

Human nature, that was something he had never thought about.

After the chat that day, everyone thought that this matter would be exposed.

But unexpectedly, Gu Jinrong suddenly came to the house again the next day, and this time his face was obviously a little ugly.

"After I brought the amulet to my daughter yesterday, she was fine at first, but at night, she suddenly started yelling and screaming, as if she had gone crazy, biting and kicking everyone at home, becoming... not like my daughter at all!"

Gu Jinrong said, his eyes slightly red, staring at Jiang Xuxu, and threw a blood-red amulet that seemed to be stained with blood in front of Jiang Xuxu.

"I thought you were really capable, but it turned out to be a crooked thing!

Tell me honestly, what exactly is this talisman you gave my daughter?

Why did my daughter suddenly go crazy after wearing that talisman?

If you don't give me an explanation, the Gu family and the Jiang family will be irreconcilable from today!"

Jiang Xuxu frowned slightly when she heard his words. Before she could say anything, Yao Lin, who heard the news, changed her face when she heard Gu Jinrong's words, and asked Jiang Xuxu hurriedly,

"Xuxu, what's going on? How could you deliberately hurt others? If my eldest brother and dad knew..."

Before she could finish, Jiang Su jumped out and interrupted Yao Lin directly,

"Second aunt?! What do you mean my sister deliberately harmed others?! The matter is not clear yet and you are listening to his nonsense!"

After saying that, he turned around and rushed towards Gu Jinrong, angrily,

"Saying that my sister harmed your daughter! This is nonsense! When you asked my sister for help yesterday, you were so polite, oh! Now that something happened today, you put the blame on my sister?!

You just picked up such a strange talisman and said it was my sister's problem. I think you are making trouble on purpose! "

Jiang Su was so angry that he almost lost his temper. At this moment, he finally understood what Jiang Xuxu meant by human nature yesterday. He

was obviously helping others, but when something went wrong, he was the first to find trouble with you!

What kind of high-quality person is talking about reason? Lu Xuexi should have come and slapped him in the face.

Gu Jinrong's face became even uglier after being scolded by Jiang Su, but compared to all this, he was more worried about his daughter's situation.

Of course, he didn't think Jiang Xuxu dared to do such a thing, but the look of his daughter... He wouldn't believe it even if he said it had nothing to do with the mysterious art.

Compared to Jiang Su's anger, Jiang Xuxu seemed much calmer. When Gu Jinrong threw out the talisman, she had already carefully checked the talisman paper, and only then did she finally speak.

"This is indeed the amulet I gave you."

Jiang Xuxu said, and before Gu Jinrong could speak, he added in a cold voice,

"But this amulet has obviously been tampered with."
