After finishing his meal, Mr. Bai had to go back early to take his medicine. Seeing that Feng Shuzhen seemed to have something to say to his granddaughter, Mr. Yan politely chose to go back first.
Zhang Guowen had a lot to say to his senior sister, but as an experienced man, he could tell that they wanted to talk alone, so he left after leaving his senior sister's contact information.
Anyway, Senior Sister will be staying in the Magic City for a few days, so there is no rush for the inheritance matter.
In this way, Yan Yueqing arranged for Butler Zhong to see everyone off, while she herself stayed in Xinghai Pavilion with Feng Shuzhen and Jiang Chuan Ning.
"Teacher Feng, Teacher Jiang, this Xinghai Pavilion is very confidential. If you have anything you want to talk about, just tell me."
She had noticed this earlier when they were having dinner. Although everyone was chatting happily, they all tacitly avoided talking about their origins. It was obvious that they all had a secret.
Feng Shuzhen was pleased with her intelligence and praised her, "Xiaoxing girl, you are much more stable than you were a few years ago."
"You can't just grow older without growing smarter, right?" Yan Yueqing joked mischievously.
Feng Shuzhen asked with concern: "I heard that you seemed to have encountered some troubles a few years ago?"
"It's all in the past. Now I'm standing in front of the teacher in good health, right?" Yan Yueqing didn't mention a word about the incident of being possessed by someone.
For one thing, this thing is too weird.
Secondly, I don’t want Teacher Feng, who is already old, to worry about me.
"Even if you don't say it, I know it must be a huge problem." Feng Shuzhen sighed, "At that time, your mother was very anxious at the Jiang family. I suggested that she take you back, but she said she didn't want to... Even if she wanted to train you, she should have helped you when you really encountered a life-and-death crisis. Later I realized... She was guarding against Jiang Ke."
"Jiang Ke?" When Yan Yueqing heard the name, she suddenly felt strange and creepy.
It's like watching a Chinese horror movie. There are no bloody scenes, but it still makes people feel their scalps tingling.
"In fact, your two children should stay and listen to these things. After all, they are also children of the Jiang family... It's a pity that they are not girls, and they will not have the chance to become the head of the family in the future..."
Feng Shuzhen was quite regretful. "I think they are doing well. If they were girls, they could have appointed an heir early, so that the Jiang family would be relieved."
Yan Yueqing knew that the Jiang family was a matrilineal family and did not have such high expectations for her son.
After all, she herself didn't want to go back and accept the position of head of the family, let alone her son?
Compared to power, money and endless intrigue, she still hopes that her sons can grow up healthy and lively!
"I chose to stay in China to give birth to my child for this reason."
Yan Yueqing vaguely recalled the scene of that year.
Su Zihu passed away. She fell into a coma and when she woke up, she had been sent back to her grandfather's house by her mother's people.
Logically speaking, members of the Jiang family, especially the future head of the family, must return to the Jiang family to give birth after becoming pregnant!
But her mother sent her back to China...
Yan Yueqing felt like she had lost a very important piece of memory, but she couldn't remember what it was, and felt a little frustrated.
"Teacher Feng, what about the Jiang family after I left?" She thought about it and decided that she could only get information from the two teachers.
Feng Shuzhen shook her head: "I think your teacher Jiang knows more about this matter than I do."
"Teacher Jiang?" Yan Yueqing looked at Jiang Chuanning.
He had a refined temperament and sat on a chair. The light shone down thinly, casting a dark shadow.
A mysterious atmosphere suddenly surrounded him, like the Bermuda Triangle that was about to approach.
After a moment, he spoke in a low, hoarse voice: "Xiaoxing, since coming to China, I have never found a suitable opportunity to talk to you about the Jiang family."
Yan Yueqing looked at him: "Teacher Jiang, do you have any concerns?"
"I do have concerns." Jiang Chuan Ning looked at her with a gentle yet sharp gaze, "Because I found that Xiao Xing has forgotten a lot of things related to the Jiang family. So... I don't know how to start."
Feng Shuzhen was shocked when she heard this: "Have you forgotten anything about the Jiang family? Could it be that Xiaoxing——"
Jiang Chuan Ning put his hands on the table, speaking in a calm tone, but telling a cruel story: "Teacher Feng... Jiang Ke disappeared for a reason."
Just one sentence made Feng Shuzhen's face turn pale.
After Feng Shuzhen went to the Jiang family, she stayed there for more than sixty years and taught three generations of family heads, so her status was naturally extraordinary.
Logically speaking, she should know about many major changes in the family.
But Jiang Ke’s matter was kept secret, not to mention Feng Shuzhen, even many people in the family didn’t know about it - where did the second-in-command of the Jiang family suddenly go?
"To this day, many people in the Jiang family should think that Jiang Ke was sent on some secret mission and has not returned for several years. In fact... we cut off her wings together, and I don't know where she escaped to?"
"Ke'er, she..." Feng Shuzhen was extremely surprised. She tried her best to maintain her emotions and thought of a direction she had never guessed before, "Did she... do something to Xiaoxing?"
"yes."
Jiang Chuanning's affirmative answer made Feng Shuzhen tremble all over.
"Teacher Feng..." Yan Yueqing couldn't help feeling distressed when she saw that the usually kindest old lady was now so worried.
Feng Shuzhen insisted: "It's okay, Xiao Jiang, what's the truth? Tell me the truth, I can handle it!"
"The head of the family asked us to keep this a secret from you." Jiang Chuan Ning shook his head, "But I always thought I should have told you earlier!"
"you say."
"At that time, Jiang Man gave birth to two daughters, one named Jiang Yu and the other named Jiang Ke. It was not without precedents of twins in the family, so they thought that according to the clan rules, when the two children grew up, the capable one would inherit the position of the head of the family, and the other one would either assist or be assigned to some idle position to be raised..."
"When Jiang Ke was seven years old, she said on the day of the clan's heavenly sacrifice that she was willing to help her sister for the rest of her life. Whether it was sincere or not, the elders of the clan repeatedly confirmed her feelings... Later, according to her wishes, they appointed Jiang Yu as the successor and gave some of the real power and property to Jiang Ke to manage..."
"The two sisters supported each other until they were eighteen years old. When Jiang Yu came of age, she temporarily handed over the household affairs to Jiang Ke and went out to travel. Then, a year later, she came back pregnant with Xiaoxing and officially took over the position of head of the family..."
Feng Shuzhen listened carefully: "I know all these things."
"But after Xiaoxing was born, Jiang Yu accidentally discovered that Jiang Ke was not a member of the Jiang family!"
"What?" Feng Shuzhen was surprised.
"This matter is quite complicated and involves some secrets. Anyway... Jiang Ke is indeed not a member of the Jiang family, and she herself learned this news after she became an adult. She originally volunteered to assist her sister in managing the Jiang family, but later she became worried about gains and losses and gradually developed other ideas."
"She wants to replace Jiang Yu?" Feng Shuzhen understood.
