Chapter 320 Everyone is mortal
Jiang Nansheng was helped to the bedside of the old doctor Jiang.
Seeing the huge bloody hole on his forehead, Jiang Nansheng's heart stagnated, and an indescribable bitterness surged in his heart.
She thought about the time she spent with her grandfather.
My grandfather had known that I was a girl for a long time, but he always acquiesced and secretly helped me hide it.
Even when she disclosed the matter to her uncles, her grandfather took full responsibility for it.
She had no way to repay this love and care.
She couldn't let her grandfather die in a foreign land.
Jiang Nansheng suppressed the surging emotions in her heart and reached out to take his pulse.
After an unknown amount of time, she finally slowly withdrew her hand, with an indescribable sadness in her eyes.
When everyone saw her expression, they already had some guesses in their minds.
No one asked any more questions.
"Bring me the silver needle."
Jiang Nansheng began to give acupuncture to the old doctor Jiang, and beads of sweat soon appeared on his forehead.
Lin Zheng took out a handkerchief and wiped her gently.
After the needle was removed, her back was also wet.
Fortunately, the old man who was originally unconscious finally opened his eyes with trembling.
Jiang Nansheng reached out and held his skinny hand, trying hard to suppress the tears in her eyes.
"grandfather."
Old Doctor Jiang focused his gaze on Jiang Nansheng, looking her up and down several times to make sure she was okay. Only then did his heart finally settle down.
"I'm glad you're okay."
"Grandfather, I'm fine. The blood clot in my brain has dissipated and I remember everything now. You should get better soon too."
There was a glimmer in the eyes of the old doctor Jiang. "Okay, okay, it's good that you remember it. I hope you're fine, Grandfather."
Jiang Nansheng tried to smile. "When I return to the capital, I will plead with the emperor to show leniency to the Jiang family. The Jiang family will not fall. You must take good care of yourself and watch the Jiang family prosper with your own eyes."
Doctor Jiang's face was filled with relief. "You are a good child. Grandfather believes you can do it. But I am afraid that my body cannot hold on any longer."
Jiang Nansheng's eyes suddenly felt sore.
"grandfather……"
"Good boy, don't cry. Everyone has to die. I've lived to this age, and that's enough. Originally, I couldn't let go of the Jiang family the most, but now that the Jiang family has you, grandpa has nothing to worry about."
Jiang Nansheng felt a sharp pain in his heart when he heard this.
"Grandfather, you are my backbone. As long as you are alive, I have the confidence to do anything. If you are gone, I don't know if I can hold on. Even for me, please hold on, okay?"
Old Doctor Jiang sighed deeply, "Grandfather is very tired, I'm afraid he can't hold on any longer. Nan Sheng, the future depends on you. When I die, bring my ashes back and bury them next to your grandmother. She has waited for me for more than ten years, and it's time for me to be reunited with her."
Jiang Nansheng couldn't hold back any longer, and tears rolled down her cheeks.
Jiang Herong, the second and third masters of Jiang also had tears in their eyes instantly.
Xiao Yanci and others also looked sad.
Old Doctor Jiang was a good doctor. He should have enjoyed his old age, but because of his unfilial children and grandchildren, he suffered such a misfortune. It is really sad.
The old doctor Jiang's originally confused eyes gradually brightened up, and his whole body seemed to have regained his spirit in an instant.
He shouted, "Madam, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."
After saying this, he closed his eyes with a faint smile on the corners of his lips. Jiang Nansheng's clenched hands also drooped down in an instant.
Realizing something, Jiang Nansheng burst into tears, and Jiang Herong and others also wiped away their tears.
Lin Zheng stood aside, looking at Jiang Nansheng's sad face, his heart tightened unconsciously.
But he could do nothing but stand beside her, giving her silent comfort and support.
Jiang Nansheng cried for a while before letting go of the old doctor Jiang's hand and tidying up the corners of his clothes and quilt.
After doing all this, she stood up and quickly cleared the unnecessary emotions from her face.
She seemed to have changed completely, and there was a sense of coldness all over her body.
When Jiang Herong met her gaze, he unconsciously felt a little afraid.
Jiang Nansheng looked at him with a cold tone, "Father, you pushed Grandfather to the ground, didn't you?"
Jiang Herong felt guilty instinctively and stumbled as he tried to defend himself.
"No, it's not me, it's Lin Zheng. He must have been the one doing this behind the scenes to frame me."
Anyway, the old man is dead and no one can identify him, so he will not admit that he killed his father.
Jiang Nansheng looked at his flickering eyes and felt a deep disappointment in his heart.
Lin Zheng was afraid that she would misunderstand, so he explained in an anxious tone.
"Ah Heng, I didn't. I couldn't possibly attack the old man. Besides, I was poisoned just now. Even if I wanted to do anything, I wouldn't be able to do anything."
Jiang Herong retorted loudly, "You Qiangdi thief, you're always telling lies! Nan Sheng, don't be fooled by him. The last time you were attacked by criminals, it was him who was responsible. Zhang Yao saw it with his own eyes."
When Jiang Nansheng heard this, a cold light flashed in his eyes.
She looked around and asked coldly, "Where is Zhang Yao?"
"Isn't he right here... Hey, he was just here, where is he?"
Jiang Herong looked around but didn't see anyone.
Jiang Nansheng gave the order directly, "Go and bring him back."
She used the word "catch", and everyone immediately realized something.
I'm afraid that Zhang Yao really did something he shouldn't have done, and completely severed the master-servant relationship between them.
And Zhang Yao obviously knew this. Otherwise, why did he sneak away as soon as Jiang Nansheng regained his memory?
Xiao Yanci immediately arranged for people to arrest the man and bring him back at all costs.
Jiang Herong also realized something belatedly, and his face became a little surprised and confused.
"Nan Sheng, what's going on? What happened to Zhang Yao? Did you misunderstand him?"
Jiang Nansheng rubbed his eyebrows, looking a little tired.
"Father, there's no need to ask any more questions. When he comes, everything will be clear."
Jiang Herong opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end he said nothing.
Zhang Yao had just run for a short while when it was night and the city gates were closed. He could not leave the city even if he wanted to.
Every household had their doors closed, leaving him with few places to hide.
Xiao Yanci sent people to search for him, and within an hour they captured him.
He was brought in front of Jiang Nansheng and knelt down with a plop.
"Little miss."
Jiang Nansheng's gaze fell on him calmly, "Zhang Yao, why did you run away just now?"
Zhang Yao lowered his head to hide the guilt in his eyes.
"I didn't run away. I just wanted to go out and get another famous doctor for the old man. Maybe he can still be saved."
"Grandfather has passed away."
Zhang Yao showed a look of grief, "It was my incompetence that prevented me from hiring a famous doctor."
Jiang Nansheng's gaze fell on him steadily, with a deep sense of inquiry and scrutiny, as if he had never known him before.
In the past, I had never realized that the people around me were so eloquent and would not cry until they saw the coffin.
