Chapter 261 Diseased Cells (Fifth Update)
"What's wrong?" Jiao Lao's heart tightened again.
"The Qi family did something to replace the prince with a cat, don't you plan to investigate?" When Jiao Yunlan and Cui Tianhao arrived in Kyoto, An Zhixia received a telegram from Fang Yuan and asked Jing Baxianer to keep an eye on them for her. Aunt Chen's family was also under scrutiny.
Apart from the girl who had just changed her name to Qi Meike making a fuss for two days, there was no movement in the Qi family.
"Alas, Yunlan has suffered a lot on the farm these past few months, and she has realized her mistakes. Except for being a bit stubborn when targeting you, she is actually filial and sensible..."
An Zhixia sneered: "Do you think it's unfair to say that? Did your newly recognized granddaughter say that the Qi family raised her and didn't let you pursue it?"
Old Jiao nodded awkwardly.
"Have you found out the reason for the series of accidents at home?"
He sighed and shook his head. "That's just our guess. There's no evidence to prove that these things are related to Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen also insisted that he took the wrong child back then, but later found out and didn't dare to switch it back. Even if we want to investigate, it's impossible."
It has been so long since the incident, and the evidence was handled naturally and cleanly, so it is difficult to investigate at the moment. There is still no news about the nurse who delivered the baby and was transferred away.
An Zhixia pursed her lips and looked at Jiao Lao with sympathy: "May the best of luck to you. If you listen to my advice, just let them live their own lives and stop disturbing you and other family members. They are both scheming. There are only two possibilities for them to harm others: one time and countless times. You must be more vigilant and don't be corrupted by sugar-coated bullets."
Mr. Jiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he was extremely surprised in his heart.
When he decided to recognize Jiao Yunlan, he had already held a family meeting to put Jiao Yunlan and her husband in the right place at home. They could compensate them more materially, but they had to keep some distance emotionally. After all, Jiao Yunlan had lived in the Qi family for more than 20 years, got married, and had her own family, so they shouldn't interfere too much.
My family really can hardly withstand any more hardship!
However, Jiao Yunlan has been particularly well-behaved, sensible and filial since she arrived in Kyoto. Even though he told himself to resist from the bottom of his heart, Old Jiao knew that he had actually softened at this moment and wanted to open his heart and treat her as his granddaughter who he had raised from childhood.
Old Jiao sighed secretly and admitted that An Zhixia was right. As a doctor, he knew that some chronic diseases could be alleviated but not cured. Jiao Yunlan was the diseased cell. No matter how well she disguised herself, she could not hide the fact that she had lost her innocence and kindness.
Once a person loses his bottom line, it will be very difficult to go back to the beginning.
When Mr. Jiao returned home, his expression was indifferent. He looked at his granddaughter who came forward to ask about his well-being with a smile on her face. He could still see the deep greed and calculation in her eyes. His heart, which had just been warmed up, cooled down. But after all, he had lived for decades. Even though he was honest and would not flatter others, he could still hide his emotions.
After dealing with Jiao Yunlan and his wife, he returned to the study tiredly. Looking at the photos on the table, he felt that God had played a big joke on him. His heart was desolate, and he didn't know why he had been busy all his life and cured so many people.
He took out a piece of paper and a pen, wrote down some simple knowledge about cell cancer, called his two sons and five grandchildren who lived at home, and gave each of them a copy so that they could understand life from medicine.
The seven men, both big and small, took it without any doubt and promised seriously, then left while thinking about it.
Old Jiao thought about the Jiang family's liveliness and sighed. He was afraid that the whole family's attention was on Jiao Yunlan.
The days are getting longer, and the Jiang family eats early. When they finish cleaning up, the sun has not yet set. Old Mrs. Jiang asked An Zhixia and An Zhiqiu to put on their most beautiful clothes and accompany her to digest the food, saying that her great-grandson also needs to exercise to stay healthy.
Everyone laughed silently. Who didn't know what she was thinking?
But everyone cooperated, and Jiang Shiming also followed the others out with his hands in his pockets.
The people living in the Zhaoyang District compound are all patriots protected by the state. Their families are not short of money and are quite particular about things. Therefore, the compound has a more petty-bourgeois feel than the compounds in other districts. Walking in it makes one feel calm and indifferent involuntarily, as if one has washed away all the worldly desires and returned to the tranquility of spring.
The five people taking a walk were particularly conspicuous and grand, and except for an old lady with a youthful face and white hair, who was energetic and very proud, the others were a combination of handsome men and beautiful women, very pleasing to the eyes, attracting many people to come.
Old Mrs. Jiang once again demonstrated her strong social skills and began to satisfy everyone's gossip by introducing her new grandson, granddaughter, granddaughter-in-law, and unborn great-grandson who was only the size of a grape.
Everyone stared with wide eyes. Didn't the Jiang family say that their granddaughter was too ugly to look at? If this was too ugly to look at, then their own appearances must be scary ghost faces, right?
Everyone praised them sourly, and then asked the children's mother and father, wanting to know whether the daughter of the Jiang family who was said to have run away from home had suffered any bad thing.
Old Mrs. Jiang said directly, "My daughter is gone, what's the point of you bringing it up again? When she passed away, my two grandchildren were only seven years old. You are also parents and grandparents, don't you know how to love your children? If you want to know, go home and dream and see if you can find the answer!"
Everyone shut up. They had been spreading the story behind the scenes for a long time, but it had been going on for more than ten years and it no longer made any sense.
But they soon became unusually enthusiastic towards An Zhixia. Old Lady Jiang was protecting her like a chick: "My granddaughter has a boyfriend, so don't mess around with her!"
