Chapter 309 You, with a face full of regret
Old Master Jiang didn't look at Old Lady Jiang, but looked at Jiang Xuxu with his deep and wise eyes, his eyebrows and eyes were always gentle, "Of course you can make the decision about your affairs."
The Jiang family owed too much to this child. In the past 18 years, the Jiang family did not help her.
She has come to where she is now on her own, raised herself to be excellent enough, and has such extraordinary abilities. What right does the Jiang family have to make the decision about her?
Hearing what Old Master Jiang said, Jiang Xuxu's mood, which was originally made depressed by Old Lady Jiang, eased a little.
There must be a reasonable head of the family in a family.
Otherwise, she really wanted to turn around and leave.
Old Lady Jiang seemed to have not expected that Old Master Jiang would actually protect Jiang Xuxu so much. She was dissatisfied and wanted to say something.
But the old man's eyes swept over her. Although his expression was still gentle, his tone was a little cold.
"You just came back. Don't believe everything you hear. Don't scare the child again."
Lu Xuexi's hand holding the wheelchair handle tightened slightly.
She went to pick up her grandmother. Grandpa said that her grandmother believed everything she heard. Doesn't that mean that she said something bad in her grandmother's ear.
She wanted to explain, but she also knew that her tricks were not good enough in front of Old Master Jiang.
Not daring to speak out, Lu Xuexi just lowered her head and felt sad secretly.
Jiang Cheng has always cared about her mood. Of course, he noticed Lu Xuexi's grievance at the first time. A trace of heartache flashed in his eyes, and he said immediately,
"Grandpa, I was the one who told grandma about Jiang Xuxu's admission to the Taoist Academy. It was not a secret. She went to that school..."
Jiang Xuxu couldn't help but touch her pocket when she heard the tone of his words.
Tsk, she didn't bring the silence talisman with her.
What a pity.
Jiang Han watched her little movements from the side and subconsciously shrank his neck.
He felt that Jiang Xuxu's look just now was a little familiar.
She had this expression before she silenced herself last time.
Well... just, not a very impatient expression.
Fortunately, Jiang Yucheng interrupted Jiang Cheng before he could finish.
"Jiang Cheng, did you come back specially to explain to him in person that the company in Tong City lost 30 million?"
This sentence made the originally tense atmosphere stagnate.
Jiang Yutong was originally watching the excitement, but suddenly heard his elder brother's voice and jumped up from the sofa.
"What?! You have only taken over for a few days and you have lost 30 million?!"
As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed at Jiang Cheng angrily,
"Big brother handed the company to you so that you can gain experience! Are you going to gain experience or to make trouble? You are still making trouble to start your own company? Don't go out and embarrass me!"
The third uncle is also a kind person in the company, and his main focus is to complement his elder brother's personality.
But he could never control his temper when it came to his two sons.
Jiang Cheng had been fine in the past and had not caused him much worry. Who would have thought that he had let his guard down too early.
Thirty million was nothing to the Jiang family.
But a logistics branch lost thirty million in less than two months. This was a problem of capability.
It was the first time that Jiang Cheng was scolded by his own father in front of everyone, especially in front of Xuexi and Jiang Xuxu. His face instantly turned red. He
felt ashamed and angry, but also a little aggrieved.
He didn't know how he suddenly lost thirty million.
He spent half a month to finally sort out things there. Everything was going smoothly at the beginning, but last week, for some reason, he was inexplicably unlucky. The project that had just been signed and the funds had been invested, but something went wrong the moment he turned around.
Jiang Cheng did not admit that there was a problem with his ability.
Even though he brought Xuexi to Tong City specially, he did not neglect his work while taking care of her, but the incident happened, and the responsibility was indeed on him.
He had already thought about the fact that he would be scolded by his uncle and father after returning, and he was prepared, but Xuexi suggested going to the nursing home to pick up grandma, and his uncle would not scold too harshly for the sake of grandma, so he... also agreed.
That's why he suddenly returned home today.
But he didn't expect that Jiang Xuxu would also come back early.
Jiang Cheng looked at Jiang Xuxu with a slightly resentful look.
Noticing his line of sight, Jiang Xuxu slightly side-glanced, then raised his eyebrows,
"You don't have to look at me, your luck has been down recently, and you look unlucky, there's no point looking at me."
Jiang Xuxu said lightly, and instantly the faces of all the Jiang family members present, including Jiang Cheng, changed.
The look he gave Jiang Cheng again was full of inquiry and sympathy.
Jiang Yutong's original expression of disappointment at his son turned into surprise.
Did he... curse him wrongly?
Old Master Jiang obviously didn't expect his grandson to be so good, but he believed in his granddaughter's ability. He was about to ask what was going on, but Old Lady Jiang was one step ahead of him and spoke unkindly,
"Ah Cheng is your cousin! How can you curse him like this?!"
Old Lady Jiang has been staying in the nursing home for some time. She has paid little attention to the news from the outside world. She only heard Xuexi say that she had entered the Taoist sect, so she thought that Jiang Xuxu had learned those unorthodox fortune-telling methods under the overpass, so she immediately asked her to drop out of the Taoist college.
As for Jiang Xuxu's comment that Jiang Cheng had a bad face, it was either cursing or scolding people, anyway, it was not good.
Old lady Jiang looked unhappy, but the other members of the Jiang family were silent.
Grandma, is there a possibility that Xuxu really saw something?
Even someone like Jiang Cheng, who has always looked down on Jiang Xuxu, after seeing her performance in the live broadcast, dared not say that her skills were just fooling people.
So did he really have bad luck?
Although Jiang Yutong scolded him harshly just now, he was his own son after all, so it didn't matter if he didn't know. Knowing that he was unlucky, Jiang Yutong subconsciously wanted to ask his eldest niece for a solution.
Hearing what Old Lady Jiang said, she couldn't help but retort,
"Mom! Xuxu said that Jiang Cheng was unlucky, so he must be unlucky. Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand what the curse is."
Mrs. Jiang was shocked by her two sons.
Jiang Yutong's third son was always obedient and had no ambitions. Unlike his eldest brother, the third son always followed what she and the old man said. When did he talk to her like this? !
Do you want to listen to what you are saying? ? ?
Crazy, crazy!
For Jiang Xuxu, he didn't even take her seriously? !
Mrs. Jiang was about to lose her temper, but Jiang Yutong turned to Jiang Xuxu and asked in a good-tempered manner,
"Xuxu, do you know what happened to your cousin? Uncle San knows that your cousin did something wrong before, and Uncle San will beat him up later to make you feel better. Can you help him?"
Jiang Xuxu was about to speak, but Jiang Su had already taken the lead to destroy his own father's plan.
"Dad, you are morally kidnapping my sister! Can't my brother ask for help himself? If you ask me, he deserves it. He hired someone to slander my sister before, and now he is in trouble, right?!"
Jiang Cheng: ...
No, hiring someone to slander her is completely unacceptable, right?
