Chapter 297 – Spying Out

Uncle Jiang was so angry that he slapped him, Jiang Jin, and scolded, “Idiot, actually offending Shiyi Maiden for Zhou’s sake. Zhou is a calamity, even after leaving the house, she still creates rumors and causes trouble, dragging our Jiang family down with her.”

He was furious. It was so hard to bring the relationship with Meng Zhimo closer, but now he had offended someone again.

The old lady just figured out why the second son was so anxious to marry Hu’s home in the first place, and monkeyed around with bringing Hu’s to his office …….

She gritted her teeth and scolded, ”Hu’s that vixen, I didn’t like it the first time I saw it. What shameless tricks did she use to charm my second son like that. She herself is disrespectful, and has brought my second son up to be unfilial ……”

The third master was busy urging, “Mother, the dead are great, don’t talk about second sister-in-law like that. Second brother and sister-in-law love to the depths of their love, although young did not hold, but finally married, and gave birth to Shiyi girl, it is also considered a happy ending. This is not something that should be spread. They have been dead for many years, so we can’t disturb them anymore. If she knew that you scolded her mother like that, she wouldn’t be happy either. Moreover, spreading the word would be bad for the Jiang family’s reputation.”

The old lady thought of Jiang Yishi, then thought of the family’s days and her son’s future getting better and better, and could only shut her mouth angrily.

Uncle Jiang exasperatedly said, “Just because we don’t spread the word doesn’t mean others won’t. Since some people go to inquire, certainly with some purpose. That Zhou, we should have gotten her killed in the first place.”

Jiang Jin said, “Second sister said that she would tell Meng Shizi and find a way to resolve this matter. She also told us not to spread the word and not to intervene, so as not to cause trouble.”

The Third Master said, “Since Maiden Shiyi instructed us like that, we’ll listen to her. Zhou has already incurred hatred, we must not do so again. Also, this matter is limited to just a few of us, no woman or child should know more.”

Jiang Jin shrunk his neck, “I know this matter is big, my younger siblings didn’t say anything about it, it’s just that I told Min.”

Uncle Jiang said, “Tell Min to keep her mouth shut, if she dares to chew the cud, the Zhou family won’t be able to keep her.”

Third Elder Master also asked Jiang Jin to personally call Jiang Xun and ask Jiang Yishi again what she really thinks.

Back at the Floating Life Residence, Jiang Yishi told Zheng Ruimo about Jiang Jin’s words.

Meng Ruimo gasped, “That bitch, she’s a monk and still dares to commit verbal abuse. Blame me, should have gotten rid of her earlier.”

He pondered for a moment, then added, “I also think that old woman was sent by He, and Zhou’s death should have been moved by Uncle Zheng. Uncle Zheng might know something about it. Alas, originally did not want you to think more ……”

Jiang Yishi asked, “And what are you hiding from me?”

Meng Zhimo said, “In the past few days, Uncle Zheng ran to the Fifth Regiment Camp to look for me twice, and invited me to drink with him late at night ……”

Zheng Ji was mainly talking about official business, during which he only occasionally asked Jiang Yishi a sentence or two. Meng Zhimo didn’t think about it that much first, but now that he thought about it, Zheng Ji was rushing for those one or two sentences. Perhaps there was also a reason why he wanted to bring his son-in-law relationship closer.

The reason why he did not immediately come to recognize the family, must be to let people go to find more definitive evidence. Zheng Ji’s nature is to never fight an unsure battle.

Seeing Jiang Yishi’s small face wrinkled and her mouth curled up, Meng Zhimo comforted, “Don’t think too much. If Uncle Zheng really wants to recognize you, I will tell him what you think. Don’t let him bother you. He has already apologized to your mother, it’s impossible for him to ignore your mother’s wishes and your thoughts anymore.”

Jiang Yishi nodded. Jiang Chen had given her all the fatherhood, even motherhood, and she only recognized that father.

Meng Zhimo added, “At this point, it’s time to tell my grandfather about Uncle Zheng’s relationship with you. There are some things that are not handled well that will delay great things.”

The next morning, he invited the old Grandfather to Fu An Hall.

When the old lord heard Meng Zhimo’s words, he was so shocked that his beard blew up.

He carefully sized up Jiang Mashie for a few moments and said in realization, “I can’t believe that old man just realized that his grandson’s daughter-in-law does indeed have some resemblance to Zheng Ji.”

Jiang Yishi beamed.

The old master added, “Jiang Chen is a good boy, letting your mother live decently, and giving you an identity and a home …… However, Resignation Mo daughter-in-law, I still have to say a few words for Zheng Ji. For so many years, I never knew why he was reluctant to return to the capital, and now that I know it is that reason, I feel that it is not easy for him. The one who should be blamed most for this is the Grand Princess, harming several people at once ……”

Jiang Yishi said, “I know it’s not easy for him, but I can’t apologize to my mother and my father ……”

In the middle of the morning on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Zheng Ji was talking with the Grand Princess and the old emperor’s son-in-law, Zheng Jing. With just the four of them, the atmosphere was very nice.

The howling wind outside emphasized the warmth and coziness of the house.

The Grand Princess’ gaze was almost always fixed on Zheng Ji, her eyes full of favor, making Zheng Ji embarrassed and unable to bear it.

In a flash of almost twenty years, his mother had gotten older and softer, no longer as strong as before. If the mother is young like this how good, everything in front of you will be a different scene …….

Zheng Ji’s expression was relaxed, but his heart was in a hurry. In a few days, he will be departing back to Xiqing, I don t know if Zheng Shou has spied on the situation.

At this time, the outer court came to report that Zheng Guan had returned from Liao Cheng.

Zheng Ji’s heart was delighted. He got up and said, “I asked Zheng Guan to visit a deceased brother’s elder. He’s back, so I’ll go ask about the situation.”

The Grand Princess felt that so many days were the happiest she had ever been. Her son no longer rejected her and stayed with her for so long, it was just a pity that the time was too short.

She instructed, “Come back early and accompany mother for dinner.”

Zheng Ji went to the outer study.

Dispatching the other subordinates, Zheng Guan came to his side and said in a low voice, “Reporting to the general, I have not dishonored my mission, the matter has been clearly investigated ……”

?

He first found the only old friend who had been to Jiang Chen’s house, and then found Jiang Chen’s previous home, the outskirts of Gao Li County, Shizhou Prefecture ……

“One of Jiang Chen’s old neighbors remembers very clearly, because her son was born more than two months later than the eldest daughter of the second wife of Jiang, and although she can no longer remember exactly on which day that girl was born, it must have been at the end of May. But Great Grandma Meng’s external birth date was September 14th, a difference of three and a half months.”

Calculating the time, that child was undoubtedly Zheng Ji and Hu Mingya’s.

Zheng Ji had already guessed that this was the result. But the real Hu Mingya really and production time to find out clearly, he still heart like a knife.

Mingya in the end encountered what in the first place, will be with the body in a hurry to marry Jiang Chen, in order to cover people’s ears to run to the countryside so far away from the production …….

And Jiang Chen, accepted Mingya and Shiji, gave them a good life and origin, and still calmly worked as an errand boy under himself for so long until he was killed in action ……

Zheng Ji’s eyes were crimson, his fists were pinched tightly, and he was in so much pain that he wanted to shout out, but he could only endure it.

Zheng Guan quietly retreated and guarded the door.

He looked at the distant blue sky and white clouds, and grinned wide and happy. The master had thought about Miss Hu for so many years, and had suffered himself for so many years, and for him to have a daughter with her, it was considered God’s long eye.
