Chapter 312 Wolf Fang Daddy, Want to Invest?
It was still that same extended van, just like the scene when Tu Yao first met the old man four years ago.
She, like that garden, was profound, solemn, and secluded.
She was still wearing a cheongsam with a dark pattern.
The difference was that the redwood tea tray that had been placed in the middle had long been put away, and the old man had a lot more white hair.
Her gaze was gentle and moist.
Tu Yao's eyes immediately welled up with tears, but she quickly wiped them away and chuckled.
"...Grandma, I'm late."
Madam Jiang held her hand, shedding all her majesty, and carefully looked her up and down, from head to toe, and then from toe to hand.
It was the same look in her eyes that Tu Chaoxi had given her that day.
Tu Yao felt a pang of sadness. She opened her mouth as if to say something, but for a moment she didn't know how to explain the past four years to the old man in front of her.
Just as I was about to speak, the pressure on my palm increased even more.
As soon as I looked up, I was met with Madam Jiang's aged yet sharp eyes.
"I won't say what I can't say."
Madam Jiang looked at her and said softly, "Our little Mao is so brave, just like your father and mother."
Tu Yao was taken aback and subconsciously looked at Jiang Liqing.
The middle-aged man beside her had a gentle gaze and nodded slightly to her with a faint smile.
Tu Yao couldn't help but sniff, and suddenly realized that they probably already knew.
Her brothers lied to everyone and said she had gone to school.
They only fooled the fat guy.
Madam Jiang stroked her head: "So, is there anything your grandmother can do to help you?"
Tu Yao rubbed her eyes, took a deep breath, and looked up again: "Grandma, I'm going to plant herbs right away."
Madam Jiang smiled and said, "Alright."
Tu Yao continued, "The young man helped me transport some back to Xianhe Village. I went to see it, and Aunt Luo helped me grow it very well."
"I still have some breeding varieties that are not easy to grow, and I am still looking for suitable places."
"My brother gave me 200,000 yuan, which I can use to buy land, but..."
He wasn't finished yet.
"Stingy," Madam Jiang immediately uttered.
Looking rather unhappy, he said, "How stingy."
"Grandma gave me the money."
After saying that, Jiang Liqing handed over a card, which Madam Jiang took and put into Tu Yao's arms.
Tu Yao was taken aback. "I haven't finished speaking yet..."
Madam Jiang raised an eyebrow, glanced at the girl's expression, and seemed to suddenly realize: "You've come to ask your grandmother for money?"
Tu Yao blinked and nodded shyly, "...Yes."
She checked and found that buying or renting land is very expensive; 200,000 yuan wouldn't be enough.
But before I could finish speaking, they handed me a black card with no spending limit.
Madam Jiang laughed: "What's a black card? I'll give you as many as you want."
When her granddaughter first came to ask her for pocket money, she became the most generous grandmother ever.
Tu Yao also smiled.
Unlike when she started growing button mushrooms all by herself, her herbal medicine has had the wholehearted support and help of family and friends from the very beginning.
She accepted the help and support without hesitation.
"Have you found the place yet?" Madam Jiang asked again.
Tu Yao thought for a moment: "Found it, but haven't conducted an on-site inspection yet."
"So we'll have to go there next?"
Tu Yao nodded: "Yes!"
Madam Jiang opened her lips as if she wanted to ask something, her eyes flickered slightly, and then she said gently, "Then Grandma will be waiting for you."
Looking at her full head of white hair, Tu Yao felt a lump in her throat and immediately hugged her: "...This time it won't be long."
“I planted mint, selfheal, and ironweed in front of my house. When they grew up, I came back.”
Madam Jiang patted her on the back and said with a smile, "Okay."
...
On the other hand, Xu Bai was somewhat confused and became more and more puzzled the more he thought about it.
Something doesn't seem right. He didn't tell his older sister that his younger brother had taken his land!
How did his older sister find out?
He only told Sangsang, could it be that Sangsang told her older sister?
Xu Bai couldn't understand it.
If he can't figure it out, he'll just stop thinking about it.
Seeing that Wolf Fang was almost at Gangcheng, he quickly took out his phone and dialed Xu Chi's number.
As soon as the call connected, he shouted to the other end, "Uncle, Wolf Fang is almost here. Can you find someone to pick him up?"
In the port city, Xu Chi's hand, gripping the pen, froze instantly. "Wolf Fang?"
"Yes, it will be about ten minutes from now, and it will stop in our backyard."
"I'm not saying this to be mean, but why do you keep sending the wolf fangs back and forth like this?"
He changed the subject: "But then again, it's good to send it back. My older sister is busy planting herbs and won't have time to take care of your dog."
Xu Chi stood up and said in a deep voice, "Growing medicinal herbs?"
"Yes, my older sister emptied out all the herbs at her school and quit her job at the traditional Chinese medicine clinic. She just left the day before yesterday, saying she went to buy land."
"Wow, big sister is amazing! She's good at everything she grows!"
"But the children at the orphanage cried terribly, and the older sister comforted them for a long time before leaving."
As they talked, Xu Bai finally realized something was wrong. He spoke for a while, but there was no sound from the other end of the phone.
"Hello?" Xu Bai glanced at the screen; the call hadn't ended.
"Uncle, why aren't you saying anything?"
A few seconds later, Xu Chi finally spoke again, "...She said, I told you to send the wolf fang back."
Xu Bai: "Yes!"
Did she give you my address?
"Address? Why are you giving me your address, ma'am?"
Xu Bai immediately adopted a tone that suggested he was being unreasonable: "Uncle, are you stupid?!"
"Don't I know where our home is!"
Xu Chi couldn't listen anymore and hung up the phone.
He lowered his eyes and suddenly remembered the day Tu Yao took the initiative to call him.
"Why didn't you come to see Wolf Fang?"
"Is it so serious that we can't even see wolf fangs?"
"Don't you think that's unfair?"
The conversation kept replaying in my mind.
He suddenly realized that he seemed to have been fooled by Tu Xiaomao.
Xu Chi sat back down and suddenly laughed.
...That's normal, though.
Tu Xiaomao is smarter and more perceptive than him, so it's perfectly normal for him to be able to fool him.
But why did Tu Xiaomao lie to him, and what does lying to him mean?
Where is Tu Xiaomao going to buy land?
Where is she going to plant medicinal herbs again...?
...
In an instant, Xu Chi's mind was in complete chaos, like knowing the answer but having to repeatedly throw questions at himself to prove it.
Along with the chaos came an overwhelming tension.
The next second, the phone rang again.
On the screen, cartoon avatars bounced energetically.
All his thoughts came to an end.
All the chaotic speculations found a clear answer at this moment.
The call connected, and the girl's cheerful voice immediately filled the entire room.
"Wolf Fang's father, would you be willing to invest in my herbal medicine business?"
