Chapter 243 Unexpected First Meeting
Since she couldn't eat the snow skin mooncakes for the time being, Jiang Yanqing planned to go out and buy some crabs so that she could eat crabs with Fang Mingxiao while watching the moon in the yard in the evening.
The two men closed the gate and walked out side by side. Before they walked out of the alley, they saw a group of people coming towards them and stopped.
Old man Qin, who had not been seen for a long time, looked a little older. Next to him was Yu Jiahe and a young man with an unfamiliar face. This was Qin Chao, the third child of the Qin family.
What attracted the most attention was a middle-aged woman standing in the middle of the crowd.
In fact, she is called middle-aged because she is very beautiful, but she also looks a little old. There is an unconcealable sadness between her eyebrows, and even her temples are a little gray.
When the woman saw Jiang Yanqing, she was completely shocked and stunned for a moment. Before anyone could react, she rushed up in three or two steps and hugged Jiang Yanqing.
Jiang Yanqing was at a loss as to what to do and looked at Old Man Qin and Yu Jiahe for help.
The woman had already started to cry sadly, muttering, "Oh my son, my poor Jiaojiao!"
Jiang Yanqing's heart was beating fast, and she really wanted to say, my life is not hard, and I am not a delicate person.
But to be honest, Jiang Yanqing was mentally prepared. Old Man Qin had written to her before, explaining his family's situation.
He said that his only granddaughter was lost when she was young, and his eldest daughter-in-law had been depressed about it, so she hurried back because she was seriously ill.
He hoped Jiang Yanqing could help. When he brought the person here, he could pretend that she was his lost granddaughter, and comfort this unfortunate woman so that she would have the motivation to live.
The reason why Jiang Yanqing hesitated was that even if she was kind-hearted for the moment and was really willing to play this play with Old Man Qin, there would always be a day when the play would be exposed, and by then, the woman would not be able to survive.
Also, I live a casual life and am willing to interact with Old Man Qin and even live with him. Partly because their feelings for each other are growing, and partly because Old Man Qin is very easy-going.
If I really accept this woman and she stays here, wouldn't it be a waste to find a mother to take care of me?
So Jiang Yanqing was wavering in his heart about whether to help, but when the woman hugged him and cried, Jiang Yanqing actually felt a little sad.
Her eyes also felt a little hot. Jiang Yanqing reached out and touched her moist eyes. Has she become so kind and good-hearted?
Old Man Qin stood still. Qin Chao stepped forward, pulled his mother away, and persuaded her, "Mom, you haven't seen my little sister for many years. Don't scare her."
The woman had been crying non-stop, but after hearing this, she wiped her tears and choked out, saying, "Yes, yes, you're right. We can't scare Jiaojiao."
After he finished speaking, he looked up at Jiang Yanqing with pleading eyes, "Jiaojiao, let's go home, okay?"
Jiang Yanqing wanted to answer, but she felt a sore throat. She cleared her throat and replied, "My name is Jiang Yanqing now. My home is behind that. Please follow me."
The attitude was neither cold nor warm, and the woman felt a pain in her heart when she heard it. The precious daughter who should have been in her arms became a stranger one day.
Jiang Yanqing turned around and led the way, and the group followed behind.
Yu Jiahe and Fang Mingxiao were at the back. Yu Jiahe quietly nudged Fang Mingxiao's arm and whispered in his ear, "Is Xiaoqing really my aunt's daughter? Why don't I know?"
Fang Mingxiao: "I don't know either." It was only after Old Man Qin wrote back a letter asking Jiang Yanqing for help that he found out that Qingqing was going to have another mother.
Yu Jiahe curled his lips, feeling a little stupid for not noticing any clues beforehand.
Old man Qin really didn't tell anyone, for fear that he would miss the opportunity. If he failed to save the person, his eldest daughter-in-law would be upset and the person would be beyond saving.
