Chapter 485
She Is From The Countryside
?
485 None of them are good
âIâm taking into account our relationship as brother and sister, so shouldnât you also give me some trust? I canât go back to the capital with you right now. I have to stay here to look for someone.â
âDonât worry, Iâm not looking for fifth uncle or that miss Shi.â
âJiang Shasha, arenât you worried about dadâs safety at all? Fifth uncle doesnât have the patience to entertain him, and heâs now a guest of miss Shi. Do you really think that miss Shi, who can casually make a trip to a place like Qingcheng, is a good person?â
jiang shashaâs smile froze for a moment, but she quickly recovered.
âThird brother, you make it sound like miss Shi will really kill father. No matter what, her father was fifth uncleâs blood-related second brother, and miss Shi was fifth uncleâs girlfriend. She would definitely have some concerns. Besides, if anything happens, Iâll still have you, third brother. Will you just watch as something happens to dad?â
âIndeed, I wonât watch as something happens to dad. For fifth uncleâs sake, miss Shi might really have some concerns and not do anything to dad. But if miss Shi has her concerns, will the rest of the Shi family?â
âOnce the other members of the Shi family find out that father has sought out miss Shi, do you think they wonât interfere? Letâs not talk about the other members of the Shi family. Do you think that Shi boyu, who can make a name for himself in Qingcheng, would be someone who is polite to his enemies?â
âitâs already difficult for me to deal with miss shi alone, not to mention the entire shi family.â
thatâs all I have to say. Itâs up to you. Iâll have someone book a flight back to the capital city at seven in the morning. jiang yu got up and went back to his room.
jiang shasha sat in the living room and drank two more glasses of wine. she sneered.

The next afternoon, in a coffee shop in the capital.
â iâve wanted to apologize to you in person for rejecting your invitation the last time, but i was too busy to find an opportunity. itâs almost the new year, so i finally have some time. iâm very happy that you can come to my appointment. â
xuan siyun took off her jacket and put it aside. she was wearing a professional suit.
her dressing was as capable and experienced as ever, and her appearance was as charming as ever.
the capable and experienced gave people a rigid feeling, and the hidden charming temperament was even more attractive. Even Bai Xue, who was already 71 years old, couldnât help but take a second look at her.
the heir of the xuan family was born to seduce men, but he was good at hiding his charm under his talent.
She was capable and had a good family background, different from those coquettish women outside.
she was talented, beautiful, and had a good family background. she was a very good candidate for a daughter-in-law. It was a pity that she was too insensible. She didnât grasp the opportunity given to her. The last time she asked someone to meet her, she actually rejected it!
however, compared to that country girl with no family background, she still preferred xuan siyun to be her daughter-in-law, so she didnât refuse when xuan siyun asked to meet her.
âYoung people should focus on their careers. Itâs just a small matter, thereâs no need to take it to heart.â
âiâm relieved to hear old furen say that. i was afraid that you would be angry with me. what would the old madam like to drink? Iâll take the order.â
âYou can order your own. Iâm a regular here, and their waiter knows what I like to drink. Theyâll serve it later.â
The meeting place was decided by Bai Xue.
After ordering, the waiter quickly served the dishes.
âyouâve been so busy lately because your cousin suddenly came back? did he come back to fight for the right of inheritance with you? i heard that he was your biggest competitor before he went abroad?â
this was an internal problem of other families, and as outsiders, they normally wouldnât ask about it. however, white snow had taken the initiative to ask. this was crossing the boundary and very impolite.
xuan siyun took a sip of her coffee, hiding the disdain in her eyes.
no wonder she treated her son like a stranger even though he was the fifth lord of the jiang family. the old lady of the jiang family was really not presentable.
And stupid enough.
She didnât care about her outstanding biological son, but her incompetent stepsons. bai xueâs only advantage was that she was the fifth lord jiangâs mother.
If white snow wasnât the fifth Lordâs birth mother, she wouldnât have asked to meet white snow, as it would be a waste of time to talk to her.
Putting down the coffee cup, Xuan Siyun looked up, and the disdain in her eyes disappeared.
â old madam, you must be joking, â she said with a smile. â iâve been busy recently because there are more things to do at the company at the end of the year. it has nothing to do with my cousinâs return. â my cousin used to be my rival, but now that iâm the heir, my grandfather wonât allow me to change my mind unless necessary.â
âMy cousin came back because I couldnât manage the Xuan familyâs huge business on my own and needed help, so grandfather sent people to bring him back to help me.â
âthere are no eternal enemies in this world, only eternal interests. Now that my interests are tied with cousinâs, weâre not a match.â
âis that so? but why did i hear yingluo?â
âOutsiders donât know better than I do about house Xuanâs current situation,â Xuan Siyun interrupted with a smile. Itâs just a rumor from the outside.â
â thatâs good. a family should live in harmony. itâs not good for anyone to always fight, let alone the family. â
âOld Furen is right.â
she was wondering why snow white had brought this up, but it turned out that she wanted to find out if her inheritance would be taken away!
ha! did she think that if she no longer had the right to inherit the xuan family, she was no longer qualified to be her daughter-in-law?
xuan jinrui had fifth lord jiangâs help and was indeed a threat to her. otherwise, she would not have been so busy recently that she had no time to care about other things.
However, even if she didnât have the right to inherit the Xuan family, she was still the eldest young lady of the Xuan family. She was better than Shi Yan, an orphan from the countryside with no background.
As for the fact that Xuan Jinrui had already posed a threat to her, she did not intend to tell outsiders.
by the way, old Madam, I heard from a familiar friend this morning that he happened to see old master Jiang visiting the Shi family. I thought the Jiang family and the Shi family had never been in contact? â
Of course, it would not be such a coincidence for someone she knew to see Jiang Qian visiting the Shi family.
she had received the news so promptly because she had sent people to keep an eye on the jiang familyâs old residence. jiang xun rarely went out, but she was very concerned about him leaving early in the morning to visit the shi family.
shi yanâs surname was also shi. even though she knew that shi yan couldnât have any relationship with the shi family, it was hard for her not to associate shi yan with the shi family when old master jiang, who had not been out for a long time, personally visited the shi family early in the morning.
He could only hope that it would not be like this.
just because we barely had any contact in the past doesnât mean that it will always be the case. Itâs not bad for the Jiang family to be on good terms with the Shi family. Anyway, the old man is bored staying at home all day. He can go and find his old friends for tea and a chat.
this was obviously the reason jiang yao had given to white snow in the morning.
âis that so, yingluo?â
Xuan Siyun let out a sigh of relief, but felt that it was too obvious, so she quickly added,âOld Furenâs words are reasonable. Having little contact in the past does not mean that it will always be like this.â
by the way, old Madam, Iâve been rather busy recently and havenât been paying much attention to whatâs going on outside. I heard that the head of the Shi family has already been handed over to young master Shi, and the original head of the Shi family has already left for Haicheng with his wife for some time and hasnât returned yet. Is this true? â
as the successor of the xuan family and one of the four great families of the capital, xuan siyun naturally knew that the shi family had changed heads. On the contrary, she received the news at the first moment.
she just didnât know that after the shi familyâs leader changed, the original leader of the shi family left the capital city with his wife and went to haicheng.
He had sent someone to investigate when he found out that Jiang Qian had gone to the Shi family today and found out by accident.
