Chapter 371 These Two Are Living Parents
Jiang Yuanxing and his wife lowered their heads in guilt, neither admitting nor denying.
After the old man retired, the Jiang family lost many of their connections in the military and political circles, but there were still some families that had close ties with the Jiang family.
No matter how secretive the couple's actions were, someone would eventually find out about it.
When Jiang Jian got married, they tricked their aunt into stepping in and threatened them to attend the wedding, but Jiang Jian, the ungrateful man, refused heartlessly.
When his parents did not attend his son's wedding, people in the circle did not laugh at Jiang Jian, but instead laughed at the couple for trying to pass themselves off as the real ones.
What kind of pearl is Xie Jiang?
She went to the capital to stir up trouble, and it was said that she offended many families there, and someone was trying to assassinate her.
There was no peace even after going to Haicheng. If I had really admitted it, I wouldn't have known when she would have died.
The couple have no special abilities and value their lives.
The atmosphere of silence quietly spread.
Old Master Jiang was so enraged by his eldest son and daughter-in-law's fearless behavior that he picked up his cane and kept stabbing the ground, making a thumping sound. He gritted his teeth and cursed, "Are your brains full of water? What does the crime committed by Zhao Xuenian have to do with you!"
"Brother and sister-in-law, have you ever used your brains?" Jiang Yuancheng leaned back, crossed his arms, and scoffed, "The evaluation for the professional title depends on the family's money, and the sister-in-law's family also depends on them. If they don't give up on Zhao Xuenian, is it possible that they put money in her hands and can't get it back?"
Jiang Yuanyu raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this. "It's not impossible. I remember when Jiang Shuo and the others were born, my eldest brother and his wife prepared gold and jewelry and stored them in a bank safe. When they grew up, they changed the safe themselves."
Jiang Yuansi looked at his second and third brothers and added quietly, "Those gold and jewelry are worth about 200 million. Zhao Xuenian wouldn't have returned them to the eldest brother and his wife, right?"
Although 200 million is not a lot, it is a huge sum of money for my eldest brother and his wife, whose villas and luxury cars were taken away and who can only live in a small house allocated by the school.
"The gold and jewelry given to Zhao Xuenian are worth more than 200 million, and there's also grandma's dowry." Jiang Shuo interrupted indifferently, "The jadeite dowry alone is worth 300 million."
He had taken it back a long time ago.
He never told her because he wanted to leave it to Xie Jiang as a dowry when she got married.
That was grandma's last wish.
"Don't make excuses for them, they're just not in their right minds." Old Master Jiang slammed the table angrily and roared, "I'm asking you one last time, do you recognize Jiang Jiang?"
Jiang Yuanxing secretly looked at his wife's face, and seeing that she pursed her lips, he simply kept silent.
"Very good, since you don't recognize me, don't enter the old house from now on. I want to see how you will live without the Jiang family." The old man was furious and called the bodyguard to ask the man to leave.
Xie Jiang was content to watch the show and had no intention of speaking up to help intercede.
These two are her living parents, she won't support them.
Jiang Shuo, Jiang Jian, and Jiang Yue remained silent, as if the people kicked out by the old man had nothing to do with them.
Seeing that the four brothers and sisters didn't say anything, the other people in the room naturally didn't interfere.
"Dad, what on earth is so special about her that you value her so much?" Jiang Yuanxing was unwilling to be kicked out by the old man and shouted back, "I'm already in my forties, and you still want to kick my husband and me out of the house? Are you afraid that others will laugh at our Jiang family?"
"Others are just looking at you two as a joke." Old Master Jiang sneered, "As long as I'm still alive, you're still my son. It's only natural for me to punish my son."
Jiang Yuanxing shuddered, and thinking of the hard times he had endured in the past few months, he felt a surge of anger in his heart.
It has been like this since he was a child. As long as he failed to meet the old man's requirements, he would be punished, while Zhao Mingda would be praised to the skies.
He clearly said it himself that having one leader in the family is enough, and it doesn't matter if the others are not outstanding.
In the end, he raised someone else's son to be outstanding, but ruined his brothers and sisters, so it became their fault.
Jiang Yuanxing became angrier and angrier as he thought about it. He took his wife's hand, shook off the bodyguard's, and strode out. "From now on, my wife and I will not come to the old house again. Don't notify us if there is anything. We won't starve to death without the Jiang family."
The old man doesn't care about them, but his wife's family has to return the borrowed money.
It’s just that I can’t go to a small island for vacation every summer vacation, I can’t travel around the world, I don’t have luxury cars and mansions, so what if a few months or even years pass by?
"Or, let's go back and apologize to Dad. Xie Jiang is our child after all." Mrs. Jiang suggested weakly.
Jiang Yuanxing paused and continued walking out, "We are not wrong, no need to admit it."
He is a university professor and will never admit that he has failed in his education and has raised a serious criminal. He will not admit that his daughter who was raised outside is better than his adopted daughter.
Even if my adopted daughter goes to prison, I will always find a chance to get her out.
Mrs. Jiang sighed and fell silent.
If she hadn't done several paternity tests before, she would really suspect that her adopted daughter was actually her husband's illegitimate daughter.
As early as the verdict on her adopted daughter came out, she proposed to meet with Xie Jiang to ease the relationship between them.
Unexpectedly, her husband refused to ease the relationship with Xie Jiang, claiming that he only had one daughter, Jiang Xue Nian.
He has a stubborn temper, just like the old man.
-
Xie Jiang didn't bother to think about whether the old man was just putting on an act by driving his adoptive parents away. After breakfast, he took Zhou Yunyu back to the Imperial Court.
Xianyun took his annual leave early. Xu Suisui and his wife both spent the Spring Festival in Beijing this year. He did not return to the Zhou family's old house and decided to follow her.
Gu Ruyi and the others also moved back to Yuting. As soon as they got out of the car, they heard laughter coming from the living room.
No need to guess, they must be just enjoying the show.
Xie Jiang listened to their laughter and felt inexplicably happy, his chest filled with a solid warmth.
"Sister, you're back." Xu Chen, dressed in home clothes, came running over, as happy as a puppy waiting for its owner to come home. "There's a barbecue party in the courtyard today. Do you want to go?"
My sister is going to spend New Year's Eve at Jiang's house, so today's barbecue party is an early reunion.
"Of course I have to go. What about Ruyi and the others?" Xie Jiang couldn't help swallowing. "What time does it start? Can it be a little earlier? It gets dark early in the winter."
There is no need to prepare special dinner. Barbecue and vegetables are enough. If that doesn’t work, you can have some noodles as the staple food.
"They are going too. Everything is ready. You can just go over there when you are done." Xu Chen chuckled foolishly.
Xie Jiang patted his shoulder and was slightly surprised to see Song Mingheng there when he entered the room.
"Send some clothes to Zhizhi. I heard she wants to learn self-defense from you." Song Mingheng smiled generously, his brows relaxed, "Long time no see."
It’s been a long time.
It has been three months in total.
The message I sent was not replied, the phone call was unreachable, and we only met briefly at the wedding banquet yesterday. He left in a hurry before I could even say a word.
"Long time no see." Xie Jiang nodded at him and sat down. "What were you talking about just now? You guys were laughing so happily."
"We're laughing at Ruyi." Tang Yue started laughing again, his tone gloating. "You know she's going on a blind date, right? Early this morning, all the blind date candidates sent messages telling her they weren't suitable."
"Is it because of me?" Xie Jiang intuitively felt that this matter was related to him.
At last night's cocktail party, she seemed to have revealed the sexual orientation of one of her blind dates.
"It has nothing to do with you." Fan Yingxu touched his nose guiltily, "Something unexpected happened last night, and my circle of friends exploded."
"Tell us in detail what happened." Xie Jiang was very interested.
Last night, she was busy looking at the trending searches and sorting out evidence of the crimes committed by the Su family's eldest and his wife, as well as other wealthy families' heads and descendants.
