After a family dinner that seems harmonious on the surface, but actually has different thoughts. After patiently playing chess with the old man, Zhang Anfeng came out of the old house with his wife, eldest daughter and his family.
"Go back and call Xiaozhou and ask him to come back before tomorrow night."
Lin Yi frowned when she heard this, "Maybe Xiaozhou is busy with work over there, just to come back to see your niece? What if I miss the work? Besides, the old man didn't say that Xiaozhou must come back!"
"My father is testing me here." Zhang Anfeng, who knew his father as his own son, turned back and glanced at the old house behind him. "If he doesn't say anything, it's just to see if I can think of this. You also said that we will see you tomorrow. But my good sister left behind a biological niece who has been missing for almost twenty years. How can I not pay enough attention to her? At least the family must be in order. "
Lin Yi: "..."
She was also speechless to the father and son, "Okay, I'll tell Xiaozhou when I get in the car."
Zhang Lingxuan handed her daughter into her husband's hands and walked to her mother, "Mom, you have to prepare a gift for your niece, my cousin."
Lin Yi really didn't think of this incident, mainly because she was repulsed from the bottom of her heart towards this niece who had not appeared earlier but appeared late but just at this time, but she also knew that her daughter's reminder was very important. in place.
Anyway, the marriage recognition banquet was held in my restaurant, so I didn't care about giving out one more gift.
It’s time to strive for the old man’s satisfaction.
"I'm going to go shopping tomorrow. Let's go together. But the family that adopted her probably hasn't seen anything good. Just buy whatever you want, as long as you look good."
Zhang Lingxuan nodded in agreement, and then said with some hesitation: "That's my cousin's sister. Grandpa said he wanted us to be friends when she was an actor. Her name is Jiang Lingxi. Isn't she coming too? Do you want to give me this gift?" Will she also prepare one?"
"Her?" Lin Yi's tone was mixed with a bit of disdain. The old man loved his wife and children, but she didn't know how to do it. "For the recognition banquet, it's okay if the child's grandmother comes, and a recognized god-sister has to be shameless to accompany her. Forget it. Well, when I pick out a gift tomorrow, I’ll just pick one for her as well.”
The left one is just for the old man to see.
"I understand. Mom, I will go back with Yi Sheng first and drive over to pick you up tomorrow."
"Be careful on the road."
Qian Yisheng had already put his daughter into the car. When he saw his wife coming over, he opened the passenger door and said, "Get in the car."
After getting in the car, Zhang Lingxuan could no longer control his expression.
His grandfather valued girls over boys. When she was a little sensible, her sister-in-law disappeared before she broke up with the family. She saw with her own eyes how much his grandfather disliked her father and how much he doted on his sister-in-law.
Later, my sister-in-law disappeared, and that care was transferred to her.
Although her younger brother is the youngest child among the grandchildren of the old Zhang family, there is no doubt that she has always been the most favored one, even after getting married.
The daughter born later is not only a girl, but also the only great-grandchild of the old Zhang family.
But what was echoing in her mind at the moment was her grandfather's gentle tone that made her a little scared when he answered the call from her cheap cousin.
Even to her, the eldest granddaughter, her grandfather had never spoken to her in this tone.
How could she not be panicked or jealous.
Like her parents, she really couldn't look forward to this cousin who suddenly appeared.
While driving, Qian Yisheng quietly felt the low air pressure coming from the direction of the passenger driver. After hesitating for a moment, he persuaded in a low voice: "The matter is a done deal. My heart is as clear as a mirror. I asked my parents to come over this time and also saved money in advance." It means knocking. You are a cousin and a peer, so you should show closer to me when the time comes."
Zhang Lingxuan let out a sullen breath, "I know everything you said, but how did this person appear so coincidentally? And that Jiang Lingxi, if it weren't for her, grandpa wouldn't have been able to see my cousin. Wait, could she have been in advance? You know, so you designed this deliberately, right?"
Qian Yisheng listened to his wife's conspiracy theory and smiled helplessly, "It shouldn't be possible, it's just a coincidence. I think I should know such a person as the Jiang Lingxi the old man mentioned."
Zhang Lingxuan immediately turned to look at her husband who was driving. He stared at his side face, which was carefully looking at the traffic in front of him for several seconds. Then he said in a dangerous tone: "You are usually so busy with work. How come I didn't know that you are also paying attention to the entertainment industry?" Is the beautiful female star here?”
Qian Yisheng: "..." Where are all this?
He didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "I learned about it from my sister."
"Yiheng, doesn't she work at the Academy of Fine Arts? Why is she related to people in the entertainment industry again?"
Just at the red light, Qian Yisheng stepped on the brakes, took the mobile phone aside and clicked on his sister's profile picture in the friends column, then clicked on her circle of friends, and then handed the phone to the side, "You Just look at the latest post she posted on Moments, and she even asked me to give her a like after she posted it."
Zhang Lingxuan took the phone over and saw a pinned circle of friends displayed on the screen. It had a lot of likes.
[Ah ah ah, I finally got the calligraphy treasure I dreamed of. I love it so much! Show off, don’t envy me too much! 】
Zhang Lingxuan almost couldn't believe his eyes for a moment.
You are already in your thirties, why are you speaking like a star-chasing girl?
There was a picture below. She clicked it with a speechless mood, and her eyes fell on the five calligraphy characters on the picture.
Although she could not inherit her grandfather's talent in calligraphy and painting, and had no interest or patience in learning this, the Zhang family, who was born in Zhang Nachuan, had seen a lot of good calligraphy and paintings since she was a child. After all, her appreciation ability was cultivated. Out.
Even if she looked at this word with a particularly critical eye, she couldn't say "bad". When she thought about her husband not letting her see this circle of friends for no reason, a guess came to her mind that she neither dared nor wanted to believe. The words slowly took shape: "Could this word be written by Jiang Lingxi? Isn't she an actress? How could she..."
The latter part of "write such good words" was lost between the lips and teeth.
Before the car restarted, Qian Yisheng took a deep look at his wife, who had doubts written all over her face, "The old man always values his family more."
So whether it is a warning or a reminder, it will only be out of good intentions.
But whether Zhang Lingxuan heard this reminder at the moment, only she knew.
*
Time goes back to a quarter of an hour ago.
The setting sun covered the entire lake, and the exquisite lanterns hanging on the four corners of the lakeside pavilion also lit up quietly.
As soon as Jiang Lingxi put down the chopsticks in her hand, she saw Shen Yunqing's cell phone on the table light up.
Shen Yunqing was busy clearing away the dishes and chopsticks, and couldn't move his hands away. When he saw Jiang Lingxi looking over, "Your Majesty, please help me pick it up."
Jiang Lingxi raised her eyebrows, picked up her phone and glanced at the caller 'Lu Ye' displayed on the screen, then clicked to connect, "Hello, Mr. Lu."
Lu Ye on the other end: "..."
He was still in the laboratory at this moment, and he hadn't even had time to take off his laboratory clothes. He was listening to the woman's voice coming from the phone's microphone and the faint sound of dishes clattering together. After a few seconds of silence, he said, " Mrs. Shen?"
This time Jiang Lingxi was silent.
"Ahem, are the blood test results out?"
Although the person who answered the phone was not Shen Yunqing, but he had access to Shen Yunqing's mobile phone and knew that Shen Yunqing sent someone to send blood samples for testing, the person who answered the phone must have the tacit approval of the owner of the phone.
Lu Ye's mind turned around quickly, and he replied in an orderly manner without any doubts: "Yes, I detected a very special active substance in the blood, but I am not sure yet what this active substance is. And this Substances also have a very strange characteristic. I just used three kinds of blood, animal blood, human blood that has been stored for a period of time, and fresh blood just extracted from the human body to do a comparative experiment."
Having said this, he paused, and his tone became a little more incredible, "Experiments have shown that that type of substance is the least active in animal blood, has an intermediate level of activity in blood that has been stored for a period of time, and is most active in fresh blood. , there is even a trend of more and more active division and regeneration. This is the first time I have seen this kind of substance. It’s just that there are too few samples that can be extracted from that tissue, and more effects cannot be detected. I can Do you know who this blood came from? Can you extract some more? I should be able to detect more things."
When Lu Ye talked about the test results, Jiang Lingxi changed the answering mode of her mobile phone to hands-free.
The two people who heard this couldn't help but look at each other.
Now it is basically certain that something was really mixed with Xu Qingmei's scratched Jing Huai's nails.
Shen Yunqing looked at the phone, and Lu Ye was still waiting there.
"Blood won't be available for a while. Let's stop the research here first. Sorry to trouble you, Lu Ye."
Although Lu Ye was a little disappointed, he was also mentally prepared. What was delivered to him was a bloody tissue instead of blood. Obviously the source of the blood was hard to tell.
"Okay then, let me try to see if I can cultivate that substance first. You and your wife are busy first, and I have to eat too. I'm almost starving now that I'm so busy."
Hearing that voice, Madam, Shen Yunqing's fingers trembled when he went to pick up the phone. He almost dropped the phone back on the table and said bravely: "That substance is very likely to be harmful to people. If you want to cultivate it, remember to Protect yourself and be careful.”
"Okay, I'll be careful."
After hanging up the phone, Shen Yunqing's movements were somewhat unnatural.
When did Lu Ye start calling him that? If he first answered the phone...
On the contrary, Jiang Lingxi had already recovered from the call of 'Mrs. Shen'. Now she heard another voice without changing her expression, and said in a natural tone: "Now we just need the test results from the hospital. There are ready-made samples over there. , I don’t know how many things can be checked out.”
Shen Yunqing breathed a sigh of relief, "But the speed at the hospital should be slower."
Lu Ye's laboratory can arrange testing immediately after receiving the sample, but the hospital will definitely have to go through the process and may even have to queue up.
"That's true. It's already evening now. We probably have to wait until tomorrow. We have plenty to wait for!"
September is approaching, and it rains again during the day. A gust of wind blows from the lake, making it cool.
"The wind has picked up, let's go back first."
Jiang Lingxi watched Shen Yunqing put her hands under the table and rub them without leaving a trace. She immediately remembered what He Zhu said about the man's poor health. She stood up first and walked back the way she came.
After walking not far, I saw Xia Zhi running towards me from a distance, with two cloaks, one black and one white, on her arms.
Seeing Jiang Lingxi, Xia Zhi hurriedly stopped and stood up, "Your Majesty, Miss Jiang. The wind has picked up. I have brought cloaks for you and your husband."
Jiang Lingxi smiled and nodded at him, "Butler Xia is still so considerate."
"You are so complimentary. This is what I should do."
Jiang Lingxi glanced at the two cloaks he brought over, reached for the black one, and put it on herself with her backhand.
After wearing white for a day, she felt a little tired.
Seeing this, Xia Zhi swallowed back the words that came to her mouth.
The black one was originally prepared for his husband!
After Jiang Lingxi put on the cloak, she realized that the black cloak was a bit long. Looking at Xia Zhi's face, he hesitated to speak, and tied the cloak straps as if nothing had happened.
Since you made a mistake, let it be the mistake.
She wouldn't be embarrassed anyway.
