Chapter 214 smooth

The Xi'an Street that Aunt Zhang mentioned is the street where Yuxiao College is located. Tong Anbao got this stone nearby, so most likely it came from Yuxiao College!

But the same Jiaoxin Stone comes from Yuxiao College, so why are the stones different?

The burnt heart stone that An Bao got seems to be "freshly baked". It is still warm to the touch and has a very deep color. It does not look like it has changed color after being left outside for several years.

It looks like...it was just dug out from the underground fire veins.

But the fire vein has been silent for so long, how could anyone dig deep into it?

Could it be that something has changed in the back mountain?

Jiang Chu looked at this anxious heart stone and thought that he should take some time to walk around the back mountain to see if he would find anything.

But now the matter of Jiao Xinshi is not important, but the matter of Tong Anbao is.

Jiang Chu had just sent him home, and his intention was just to do it casually and find a door first. If he found his parents later, it would be convenient to pick them up.

But she didn't expect that she would make an unexpected discovery!

As soon as he entered the courtyard, Jiang Chu felt a sense of disharmony.

Because judging from the layout and placement of items, it seems that her family is too poor. The bowl on the table is old and has several gaps.

Being both tidy and poor is a very poignant and sympathetic point.

But in fact, Jiang Chu had heard that Aunt Zhang had been helped by everyone because of her relationship with Anbao, and she was also making money because of her sewing skills.

This is actually enough for her to live a normal life. Even if she is not rich, she is definitely not poor.

If we say that she is frugal and reluctant to change the bowl, that would make sense, but what about Tong Anbao wearing patched clothes?

Also, when Jiang Chu walked into Tong Anbao's room, he found that the teapot was covered with a layer of dust and empty inside, which showed that the teapot had not been used at all.

The food residues on the ground have also dried up. I don’t know how long ago they were left.

The yard outside is clean and tidy, but "Aiko's" room is dirty and there is no tea. These contradictory points make no sense at all.

And the bedding was dirty, old, and thin, making me feel uncomfortable even when I lay on it.

None of the eldest parents Jiang Chu had seen in his first heavenly mission who lost their daughter were so poor!

Not only was it thin, Jiang Chu also found a small bump on the edge of the bed, so she lifted the quilt——

I saw a nail sticking out!

The nails were a little loose and were sticking up, and the bedding was so thin. You can imagine what it would be like to lie down on it to sleep, and what would happen if you bumped into it when you accidentally turned over.

If Aunt Zhang really acted as she said and cared so much about Dafu, how could she not even know such details?

Finally, Tong Anbao went out to play by himself, and no one else came back. Why are there steaming chicken legs at home that have been stewed for a while?

If it was stewed for Tong Anbao, why not give it to him as soon as he came back, instead of giving him a slap in the face after he ate it secretly?

This is simply not something a mother who loves her son can do.

So even if Jiang Chu doesn't want to speculate on this, he has to admit one thing -

Aunt Zhang may have brought Tong Anbao home at first because she really regarded him as her son, but after she came to her senses later, she already knew that Tong Anbao was not a great blessing.

But she got some benefits from adopting Dafu: sympathy from others, and relief from time to time.

Having one more person in the family is nothing more than being responsible for one more person's food, clothing, and housing.

In terms of housing, she already has a house. Food is not much more for one more person. Clothing, if you save it, it won't cost much.

Originally these things didn't cost much, but if she deliberately saved some, she would spend even less.

But because of this, I can get the benefits that others bring to my door for nothing!

In order to make others sympathize with them, she deliberately let Tong Anbao out every day and let him run around and play. Anyway, no one would abduct a fool. Instead, some kind-hearted people would specially bring him back to her.

If she delivers it to the door, then she will let people see the poverty in the yard and arouse sympathy, so maybe they will leave some money before leaving.

For Aunt Zhang, Tong Anbao has become a tool for her to gain sympathy and make money.

If at first Jiang Chu felt guilty for helping Tong Anbao find her relatives and felt that she might be sorry for Aunt Zhang, then now she couldn't wait anymore——

Help him find his family quickly and let him escape from the fire pit.

In front of him, Aunt Zhang would beat him for eating chicken legs, and she would hit him so hard. What would happen when he was not around?

Jiang Chu didn't expose her on the spot today because everyone in the city knew that she was Tong Anbao's adoptive mother and a kind person. If he suddenly took the trouble and wanted to take Tong Anbao away, it would be totally unreasonable and no one would believe her. .

It's better to be on the safe side first and find Tong Anbao's family first.

When Jiang Chu returned home, he first went to the room and drew a portrait of Tong Anbao. She was not good at painting, so what she drew was only a sixty-seventh portrait, but having this portrait was better than nothing.

Then she called Hua Lan and Wuyou over.

Hua Lan has a lively and outgoing personality and is good at dealing with people, while Wuyou has martial arts skills and cannot speak. The two of them work well together.

"You guys go to Yushan City to find out if there are any families who have lost their children. This child is about the same age as me. The boy's name is Tong Anbao. He is a bit confused. Here is his portrait." Jiang Chu handed the portrait to Hua Lan. "It's rare to find someone with this surname. Ask around and ask around. If you can't find it, ask beggars or people to help. Money is easy to talk about, so just give it."

Jiang Chu looked at them, "If you need help, pick one or two more people from the house to take away. If you find Tong Anbao's family, bring them over. I will take them to pick them up personally. If you really can't find them, then at most Come back in ten days."

Jiang Chu himself usually doesn't need many servants, and mostly practices alone in his room. Hua Lan has been busy growing mushrooms these days, so it's just a good idea to arrange a job for her.

The two agreed and went down, and would set off early tomorrow morning.

Jiang Chu thought for a while and then made a divination for Tong'an Bao.

During the day, she was divining Tong Anbao's life experience, but now she was divining whether his marriage search would go smoothly.

After the divination, Jiang Chu smiled.

The hexagram shows that everything is going smoothly, this matter will not cause any complications, and it will proceed fairly quickly.

In this case, Hua Lan and Wuyou should be able to gain something soon from their trip.

Jiang Chu is looking forward to this very much.

After putting aside the matter with Anbao, Jiang Chu was moved in his heart.
