Chapter 568
She Is From The Countryside
568 donât let her be bullied
âdonât blame your grandfather. heâs just like that, and he might care about you. thereâs one thing you might not know, but when he found out about you and that child of the jiang family, your grandfather personally went to the childâs manor to block someone, but unfortunately, he didnât manage to block him.â
when shi chen heard this, he glared at xie xi n, his expression a little unnatural.âWhy are you telling her this? So that she would laugh at me for not being able to meet a junior after mingling around for my entire life?â
â whatâs there to laugh about? you and i both know how capable that child of the jiang family is. there are many people who want to see him but canât, and his biological parents are no exception. itâs not embarrassing that you canât see him. â
Although he said that, Shi Chen still felt embarrassed that he couldnât find anyone outside the door with his walking stick.
he felt that he was different from the two in the jiang family. those two were biased parents, but he was different. he was of higher seniority. moreover, it was jiang che who wanted to abduct his granddaughter, but he couldnât even see jiang che. he felt very embarrassed and very unhappy!
shi yan really didnât know much about this.
however, she thought that it must have happened when jiang che returned to the capital alone.
âThank you for your concern, grandfather and grandmother. Jiang che is very good to me, and weâre very good. Jiang che had wanted to come back with me today and meet the elders of the family, but I didnât agree. i thought it would be better for me to come back and let him know first. iâll bring him to the door in two days.â
âlisten, listen, what are you saying? so that kid is one of your own, and weâre outsiders? we havenât even seen him yet and heâs already speaking up for him. what, are you afraid that weâll make things difficult for him?â
...
Shi Yan smiled and said nothing.
Shi Chen was even angrier, as if he had tacitly agreed to his words.
âFine! Iâm an evil person, and Iâll find people to dislike! If youâve seen it, then get lost. Standing here is annoying! Eldest daughter-in-law, bring her back to her courtyard. She hasnât been back for so many years, Iâm afraid she has even forgotten which direction her courtyard door is open!â
Shi Yan was not affected by his attitude at all. She calmly bowed again.âthen iâll return to the hospital first. iâll come back later to accompany grandfather and grandmother for lunch.â
Su Wan left with Shi Yan, and the younger generation also left.
Shi Lin, the four people from the second branch and the old man from the third branch all stayed behind.
xie xi n looked at shi xun and sighed,âwhy do you have to do this?â youâve been waiting for yanyanâs return ever since you found out that sheâs back in the capital. werenât you worried about her condition two days ago and went around asking for information?â
being exposed in public like this, the old master felt a little embarrassed and glared at her.
he coughed and looked at shi lin, who was sitting there. â âsince youâve stayed, you must have something to say. just say it.â
Without waiting for Shi Lin to speak, he snorted coldly,âEven if you donât say it, I know what you want to say. Isnât it about that girl and the Jiang familyâs boy? if that kid from the jiang family wasnât also from the capital, she probably wouldnât have wanted to come back even now! An entire family is not as important as an outsider, youâre heartless!â
âb-uncle, you canât put it that way. from a certain perspective, the shi family should thank the fifth master of the jiang family. if it werenât for him, yanyan wouldnât have returned home so quickly.â Second aunt qu Xuan stammered.
...
He carefully looked at the old manâs face, for fear of angering him.
she only had one son, and to her, nothing mattered more than her sonâs return.
and she knew very well that shi yan played a huge role in shi boxiangâs return. As for Shi Boxun running away from home because of Shi Yan, she had long thought it through and didnât blame Shi Yan.
without the second branchâs pressure, shi yan would not have left home, and the only child of the second branch would not have left home for so many years.
It was enough for her to be stupid once. She would not do it a second time.
âdo i need you to be so nosy?â shi chen glared at her.
Qu Xuan laughed dryly and shut her mouth.
It seemed that he was not angered by her and heaved a sigh of relief.
âBig brother, while the juniors are not here, letâs talk about serious matters.â The third old master, Shi Jinlei, spoke.
shi xun did not specifically ask them to stay, but the shi family had always been harmonious and had a tacit understanding between the family that other families did not have. Even if Shi Xun didnât say anything, they knew that he had something to say, so they stayed.
shi xun said seriously,âyou should already know about yanyan and the kid from the jiang family, so i wonât say much.â it has been a few days since she returned to the capital. i believe that you have more or less investigated the reason why she chose to return at this time.â
...
âHmph! if it wasnât for the rumors of the marriage between the jiang family and the xie family, she wouldnât have wanted to come back. sheâs heartless!â
She did not forget to express her dissatisfaction while talking about serious matters.
so many years have passed, but her personality hasnât changed at all. Look at all of you, your eyes are red from crying. Sheâs the only one whoâs calm and collected. Her heart is really hard!
âi still take after you.â xie xi n answered with a smile.
âWhether it was when Yanyan left back then or when she came back now, your eyes didnât even turn red. This isnât because youâre hard-hearted, itâs because you can take it. yanyan has taken after you in terms of your calmness.â
As expected of a married couple of many years, Xie Xi Nâs words made Shi Chenâs lips curl up.
he tried his best not to let anyone see it.
he snorted and continued,âwith that girlâs personality, since she came back at this time, itâs impossible for her to not do anything.â do you have any news from your side? what is her plan?â
The second half of the sentence was directed at Shi Lin.
shi lin shook his head. â i donât know. the last time i saw her was when she had a high fever. at that time, she was not conscious and didnât speak. â
speaking of this, shi xun got angry. â when i was young, my physical fitness was so good. after a few years of wandering outside, i became like this. i had a good life, but i had to suffer that kind of punishment. i deserve it! â
...
He knew that Shi Yanâs sudden illness had nothing to do with her physical fitness.
âAlso, what kind of father are you? how come you donât even know what your own daughter is planning?â
shi lin was speechless.
the old man was on fire and ordered whoever he could.
however, as a father, he did not even know what his daughter was planning. it was indeed a dereliction of duty.
it wasnât that they didnât go to investigate, but that they couldnât find anything. He didnât know if even he, her father, could not find out anything, whether it was Jiang Cheâs obstruction or Yanyanâs own ability.
âWhat about you guys? you donât know?â the old man asked the others.
âBig brother, sister-in-law, and ah Lin donât know. Itâs even more impossible for us to know.â The second old master Shi Qing said.
âdidnât bo li say anything to you? Heâs the closest to that girl in the whole family.â
no, weâre already satisfied that BOSU doesnât blame us and is willing to talk to us. We did something wrong back then, so we donât dare to expect anything else. The second old Madam smiled bitterly.
Xie Xi n saw that he couldnât get anything out of her, so he said, â âitâs fine if you donât know. i heard that yanyan only took a weekâs leave. what sheâs going to do should be within these two days. we just have to keep an eye on her and not let her be bullied.â
...
It was unlikely that he would be bullied. even if they didnât care, her brothers wouldnât. besides, there was still the fifth lord jiang.
this was what everyone was thinking, but no one said it out loud.
Yanyan didnât need their help, and they didnât want to help her. They couldnât just leave her alone just because someone was helping her.
âfrom what youâre saying, youâve silently agreed to the relationship between yanyan and the child of the jiang family?â Shi Jinlei suddenly asked.
shi chen could hear the teasing in his words.
He didnât look good.
âwhat else?â
