Chapter 267 Suspicious Detective

Jiang Sheng raised a simple smile: "That's just right, I'll go with cousin Qiao Zhi."

Zhao Qingzhuo smiled and immediately returned to normal: "Cousin Qiao will live here for a while, and there will be opportunities in the future."

Jiang Sheng shook his head: "But my cousin and I haven't talked enough yet."

"Grandma only said to let Cousin Jiang go there alone..." Zhao Qingzhuo was embarrassed, "It didn't mean anything else. Grandma has always been used to being quiet."

"If Cousin Jiang misses Cousin Qiao, you can stay at Zhao's house. We are always welcome."

"Then I won't bother you anymore." Jiang Sheng was reluctant.

"Cousin Qingzhuo, please lead the way."

Although she didn't understand why Qiao Zhi was a little resistant to Zhao Qingzhuo, in that case, she would help take Zhao Qingzhuo away.

Zhao Qingzhuo originally wanted to ask a servant to take Jiang Sheng there, but suddenly he met Jiang Sheng's slightly dissatisfied eyes.

For some reason, he could read the meaning of "If you don't go, I won't go either" from those clear eyes.

Zhao Qingzhuo immediately suppressed his original thoughts, stood up and went out with Jiang Sheng.

Before leaving the yard, Jiang Sheng turned back and waved to Qiao Zhi: "I'll come back later."

Walking on the road, Zhao Qingzhuo looked at Jiang Sheng's side face, and the other party's clearly visible long eyelashes flapped slightly.

He smiled and asked: "How long has Cousin Jiang been in the city?"

Jiang Sheng said: "Soon."

Zhao Qingzhuo asked again: "Linyi is not close to the capital, why do you suddenly want to come here?"

Jiang Sheng replied: "I came as soon as I thought of it."

Next he asked Jiang Sheng a question and answered it. After asking for a long time, he didn't get anything out of it.

Zhao Qingzhuo:......

Without caring about the mood of the people around her, Jiang Sheng thought idly that she seemed to already know why Qiao Zhi was a little resistant to this cousin of the Zhao family.

I don’t know if Zhao Qingzhuo’s questions represent himself or are the Zhao family’s tests.

It wasn't until they arrived at Mrs. Zhao's courtyard that Jiang Sheng smiled and said, "Thank you very much, cousin."

The conversation along the way made Zhao Qingzhuo already frustrated. Seeing that the person was finally delivered, he finally breathed a sigh of relief: "No, no, I'll leave first."

Jiang Sheng nodded politely, and then was led by Granny Chang towards the inner room step by step.

Now that the hottest part of summer has passed, Mrs. Zhao's courtyard is still full of ice basins, even more so inside. As soon as she walks in, she feels a chill.

Old Mrs. Zhao, who was leaning on the Luohan bed and holding the small coffee table in the middle, heard the movement and slowly opened her eyes. When she saw Jiang Sheng, she immediately put on a loving expression: "Sister Sheng is here."

Jiang Sheng didn't even salute, he just smiled and walked over: "Hello, great aunt."

Mrs. Zhao asked her to sit on the other side and asked Aunt Chang to add some water: "Eat some more cakes and treat her as if she were at home."

She fanned herself and sighed: "I am getting old, so I may not get around your grandmother very often, but you sisters need to have more contact with each other."

Old Mrs. Zhao's words did not get into the topic, so Jiang Sheng was polite: "Cousin Qiao Zhi just told me how well she got along with Cousin Qingshan and Cousin Qingyu in the past few days since she came to Linyi."

Mrs. Zhao nodded and smiled: "Sister Zhi has a good temper and temperament. Qingshan and Qingyu should also learn more from her."

"You also have an eldest cousin named Qingqiong. She got married last year. If you have time, you can ask her to go out for a walk together, or go to Wang's house to play with her."

Jiang Sheng nodded and responded politely.

Finally, Mrs. Zhao seemed to mention it inadvertently: "I heard that the child Guishuang adopted from a side branch at that time has nothing to do with the Jiang family?"

Qiao Guishuang is Mrs. Hou's maiden name.

Jiang Sheng didn't understand what Mrs. Zhao meant, so she said half-heartedly: "I don't know much about the elders either."

Mrs. Zhao smiled and asked: "So your brother is now... considered to be independent?"

Jiang Sheng looked at Mrs. Zhao ignorantly: "Maybe."

Mrs. Zhao nodded and sighed: "You and your brother have been brothers and sisters under the same roof for more than ten years. Are you not used to it when he suddenly leaves home?"

"Actually, blood relationship is not that important after all. Since Guishuang is a person, he can just record the other person as his adopted son."

Jiang Sheng did not say that Marquis Jiangping and Mrs. Hou wanted to remember Jiang Yan as their adopted son, but were rejected. He only answered Mrs. Zhao's previous question: "Even if this matter hadn't happened, the elder brother and the younger brother would have gotten married, not to mention that I was adopted."

My brother never paid attention to me when my parents scolded me, and he was no better than the girl next to me, so there is nothing wrong with me."

Jiang Sheng pouted, as if he didn't want to see his eldest brother who left home halfway.

Old Mrs. Zhao laughed loudly: "You girl, I don't know yet - Guishuang has been a dear to you since you were a child. How can you be willing to scold you? I'm afraid you haven't even hit the palm of your hand once."

Hearing this, Jiang Sheng smiled brightly and said proudly: "My parents love me so much."

"Then you still blame your brother for not helping you, Sister Sheng, Sister Sheng..."

Old Mrs. Zhao played the family card: "Sister Sheng, to be honest, your great-aunt was almost fifty years old at the time of your full moon party. Her legs and feet are not convenient for walking, so she didn't visit you."

"But my aunt was happy when she saw you. Although you are not Gui Shuang's biological child, doesn't this coincidence prove that you are destined to our family? Look at this appearance, you are exactly the same as Gui Shuang when he was young.

They are all born so beautifully."

"My great-aunt said the same thing, the fate between people does not depend on blood relationship and getting along with each other..."

Old Mrs. Zhao took off the bracelet in her hand: "When I first meet you, my aunt has nothing to give you. This bracelet has been with me for more than ten years, so it is as old as you. If you don't dislike it, keep it."

It is said that the more you wear jade, the more transparent it becomes. Anyone who doesn't know how to wear it can tell that Mrs. Zhao's jade bracelet is very beautiful. After more than ten years of maintenance, it is so beautiful that it is worth a lot of money.

Jiang Sheng's heart was ringing with alarm bells.

She didn't see anything on Qiao Zhi that Mrs. Zhao gave her.

No matter what he thought in his heart, Jiang Sheng just nodded obediently, but did not take the bracelet: "Me too, when I see my great-aunt, I feel like seeing my own grandmother, and I unconsciously want to get close to her."

"But my mother has told me since I was a child that a gentleman will not take away others' love."

"My great-aunt must have loved the bracelet so much that she has worn it for so many years. Since I am close to you, I cannot rob you of something you love."

Mrs. Zhao shook her head and laughed: "Glib tongue."

Having said that, she didn't force it and put away the bracelet: "That's all, let your cousin take you to choose some sets of hair and noodles next time. This old style of bracelet is really not suitable for a young girl like you.

"

Looking at Jiang Sheng's clean and innocent eyes, Mrs. Zhao suddenly looked solemn: "Sister Sheng, my biological grandson, please tell my aunt the truth——"

She spoke in a long tone: "What does your brother do in Laiyi?"

When she asked, Jiang Sheng relieved.

Is this the purpose of the Zhao family?

What did Jiang Yan do, did the Zhao family doubt?
