Chapter 1735: Chapter 1671: Undercurrents in the Jiang Family
A woman about ten years younger than her curled her lip and said disapprovingly, "Big Sister, are you joking? The Old Master is not doing well now, and if you really bring up Xiao Sixth to him, will he be okay?"
"Laosan, speak properly!" a woman with short curls scolded her.
What does "will he be okay" even an? This kind of talk is uncomfortable to hear.
That Laosan earlier snorted, "Second Sister-in-law, you heard what Big Sister said too. Isn’t she just coming up with terrible ideas? All these years, who dares to casually ntion Xiao Sixth?"
"Ah, yes, Big Sister, we can’t ntion Xiao Sixth."
"Then what should we do? Do we just stand by and watch the Old Master worry himself sick?"
"Isn’t it said that Doctor Chen is already on his way to D State with the dicine? I think he can definitely save the Old Master." the Second Sister-in-law said.
"Do you think Ying Qiong will co back?"
"Of course she’ll co back. We, the nieces and nieces-in-law, are all here. Wouldn’t a biological granddaughter co back?"
"It would be great if Ying Qiong could co back. I think she has so good ideas," Laosan said. "Then we won’t have to keep listening to those brothers squabble all the ti."
This remark caused the others’ faces to change slightly.
"Laosan, why are you talking nonsense again!"
Another woman with a round bun on her head, who had been silent all along, couldn’t help but scold after hearing this.
This Laosan, truly, can say anything.
Everything about those brothers is sensitive in the Jiang Family right now. On the surface, everything seems harmonious, yet there’s turmoil underneath. Anyone who’s not entirely foolish knows this. Who dares to speak carelessly?
This Laosan is bound to cause trouble sooner or later.
"I was just saying," Laosan said sowhat sheepishly, "after all, my dad is mild-tempered and honest, without many thoughts, as you all know."
Laosan’s father, Fifth Master Jiang, truly has an honest and taciturn personality. Others have their own private thoughts and so seem difficult to deal with. But everyone feels that Fifth Master Jiang doesn’t have any intentions.
"Fifth Master is good-natured, but you talk too much!" the Second Sister-in-law glanced at her.
Today, most of the Jiang Family’s won were gathered here. Ever since the Old Master had an incident, the n were all preoccupied, each with their own tasks; they were nowhere to be seen, but naturally, they couldn’t let others feel as if they weren’t concerned about the Old Master. So they sent the won who were available.
But Doctor Chen wouldn’t let them in to see the Old Master, saying that he was still unconscious and they should wait until his uncle, Chen Baoshen, arrives to take a look.
Doctor Chen’s words didn’t carry much weight, but Ying Qiong did make a call to instruct the Jiang Family to follow Doctor Chen’s lead regarding the Old Master.
Ying Qiong is the Old Master’s biological granddaughter, and most significantly, she’s the Head Chief’s Wife. Who in the Jiang Family would dare not listen to her?
At least on the surface, no one dared to go against her.
Chen Baoshen’s nephew inside overheard their vague conversation, lowered his gaze involuntarily, and looked at the Old Master Jiang on the bed with so lancholy.
Yet the won outside were unaware that the Old Master Jiang was actually awake and not as they thought, in a coma.
But his eyes seed very clouded, his complexion was grayish, and his lips appeared sowhat blackened.
"Old Master, don’t worry. My uncle called and said he’s bringing excellent dicine. He’s sure to cure you."
