Chapter 262 I Have Money (First Update)
Old Mrs. Jiang took a group of grandchildren for a stroll around every path in the compound. Sometimes she would shout across the yard to the owners inside, or "mortal enemies" in her words, and praise each of the children around her.
In the past, everyone could say that the Jiang family only had one root, an old iron tree that never blossomed or bore fruit, but they are good enough. Now they have a pair of talented grandchildren. Even if those people pretend not to care and play tricks with Old Mrs. Jiang, when they close the doors and windows, it's like drinking a jar of old vinegar, and the ears of the younger generations in the family are in trouble.
The people in the courtyard were all from one family to another, and the noise naturally startled Jiao Yunlan and her husband, who were reading in the study after dinner. They looked at each other, frowned, and walked to the window. In the halo of the setting sun, they actually saw An Zhixia, who made them grit their teeth.
Listening to Old Lady Jiang joyfully introducing the three siblings of the An family, the jealousy and hatred in their hearts burst out of their eyes like cold snakes.
An Zhixia glanced at the house to the side with a sense of something, and vaguely saw someone in the window. Without showing any abnormality, she smiled and pulled Jiang Shiming's clothes, and asked in a low voice: "Brother, don't look casually, whose house is that on the left?"
"It's at the home of Mr. Jiao who just took Zhiqiu's wife's pulse," Jiang Shiming cooperated with her and did not turn his head, but he also glanced over there.
Except for the main road, the other roads in the yard were not wide and could only accommodate a car in one direction. Therefore, he quickly caught sight of the two people half-hidden behind the curtains. One of them was petite. Needless to say, she should be the newly recognized granddaughter of the Jiao family. And he also felt the two cold and uncomfortable gazes.
"How do you know them?"
An Zhixia sighed slightly, nodded helplessly and said: "I suddenly feel like I've shot myself in the foot. I'll tell you again when I get back. If you live in the same courtyard, you have to know their character to avoid being schemed against."
The weirdness in her heart has always lingered, and anyone would want to find out the reason. So she became the promoter of the side plot, letting the Jiao family recognize Jiao Yunlan. There is no other way, this is a society ruled by law, she is a law-abiding citizen, it is impossible for her to kill or burn people.
However, she believed that the couple would not settle down and would continue to make trouble. She might end up in jail again tomorrow.
Jiang Shiming hummed, ruffled her hair, and said with a smile: "You should have been the pampered little princess of our family, but you and Zhiqiu suffered so much for no reason. From now on, with big brother protecting you, no one can bully you anymore!"
An Zhixia smiled and made a face at him, feeling touched and emotional. The real little princess was gone, but she would try to live on to get her double happiness.
Old Mrs. Jiang returned home refreshed, and the chicken soup was ready. After skimming off the fat, everyone sat around Fang Hongye and watched her drink up half a bowl of it in small sips. They immediately felt happier than if they had drunk the whole pot themselves.
At this time, An Zhixia told her family about Jiao Yunlan and Cui Tianhao. After hearing their story, the Jiang family was very angry, especially the old lady Jiang, who stomped her feet: "This old man Jiao treats patients all day long, why doesn't he know how to take good care of the family? Sister Jiao was such a good person, and the two wives were very sensible and caring, but they are all gone. If you say that there was no incident with Xiao Chen and Qi Meike, even the little dog will believe it!
Now they are so open-hearted to a granddaughter who has a lot of bad intentions? Don’t let your old bones and your children and grandchildren get involved in this next time!"
An Zhixia narrowed her eyes, thinking that although Old Jiao was a bit straightforward and his words were not pleasant to the ears, he was a good man and had superb medical skills. She should not let her grandmother's words really make her feel right. She subconsciously turned her head to look at the eldest son in the family.
When Old Master Jiang received his granddaughter's gaze, his expression eased a little. He smiled at her soothingly and said, "No one would be suspicious of their family, especially such a young child. But it's different now. Jiao Yunlan has grown up and has her own family. Besides, the couple has a criminal record. Old Jiao will not sacrifice his entire family for the so-called family affection.
But tomorrow we old friends will get together."
Because Fang Hongye was pregnant, they definitely couldn't go on the show as planned. An Zhixia's beautiful eyes turned around, and she quickly came up with an idea.
After a busy day, everyone was excited but tired, so they went back to their rooms to sleep.
In the early morning, the Jiang family was particularly lively. The smiles on everyone's faces came from the heart, and the whole house was filled with the sweet smell of happiness.
Jiang Shiming still sent An Zhixia to work first. When they arrived in front of the studio, he looked at An Zhixia with a gentle gaze as she took off her helmet, revealing her well-behaved and beautiful face with a smile. The corners of his lips could not help but rise: "I will teach you how to drive after get off work today. When you learn it, I will get you a beautiful car to drive."
"Brother, I have money," An Zhixia patted her bag and said proudly, "I can still afford a car. Besides, grandma gave me so many treasures, maybe I am the richest in the family!"
"Yes, you are a little rich woman," Jiang Shiming said with a sullen smile, "That's your money. I am willing to spend it on you, isn't it? I have been absent from you for 19 years. Please, dear girl, let me take good care of you!"
An Zhixia was also amused, and said generously, "Okay!"
After rubbing the girl’s head, Jiang Shiming waved his hand and left.
People in every window upstairs shrank their heads in sourness. "Beautiful people are always surrounded by people who protect them. The people who come and go are all young men who drive motorcycles worth thousands of dollars. No wonder he became the director right after he arrived."
Everyone mumbled a few words in a low voice, but no one discussed it openly. The meeting the day before yesterday was still somewhat effective. The director just said that the senior leader had named An Zhixia to be in charge of the overseas channel, and everyone fell silent.
More importantly, the station director said that An Zhixia had real talent. She was in charge of the successful Spring Performance Group Competition that was praised by senior leaders and reported by major newspapers. She has more than 200 employees with work permits.
Foreigners pay to watch TV, and they can earn a lot of profit based on clicks. In short, An Zhixia is a cash cow, and they can't get along with anyone but money!
Thinking of this, everyone immediately felt balanced again. The more capable An Zhixia was, the more they would benefit. After all, part of their salary was a performance bonus.
When An Zhixia arrived, the twelve new employees had already arrived and greeted her with smiles and enthusiasm.
"Let's go to the conference room and discuss the work of our channel together." She said with a smile, leading a group of people to the largest conference room.
