My Little Sweet Wife Chapter 350

Chapter 350 - The Mystery Behind The Collapse Of The Ancestral Hall II

Xian Zihao left the ancestral hall and returned to Xian Residence.

When Old Man Xian came out of the study room and saw him enter the house, he walked over to him and asked with a smile, "Zihao, how is it?"

Xian Zihao did not answer the Old Man's question. He only pursed his lips, and when he saw Xian Jian, who had just walked down the stairs, he said lightly, "Dad seems to have a lot of problems outside recently."

Xian Jian's face stiffened and then sighed heavily. "I was arranged to be in the army by your grandfather for the past two years, but recently everything went wrong as if all the soldiers were possessed! All of this happened because of the arrival of a group of new recruits. They were not very sensible, and the news spread too quickly, making it difficult to suppress them."

Xian Zihao stood there silently, then he said, "Maybe they're really possessed." As he said this, he glanced at the wise Old Man. "Recent events are also very strange. Don't you think so, grandfather?"

The Old Man smiled and tightened his grip on his cane, "Zihao, you no longer need to investigate this matter, because grandpa is not injured and Ruolan is fine. The ancestral hall is a place where I often go. I know that the stone pillar in front of that wall is in a state of disrepair, and even if it falls, it would only happen sooner or later. You can blame grandpa for not paying attention to this matter. If it wasn't because of me, Ruolan would not be injured."

Xian Zihao chuckled lightly and said casually, "Grandfather, some things are like this cracked wall. You can't tolerate it. Otherwise, there will be more problems."

The Old Man no longer said anything. He was silent for a moment, then looked at him and sighed. "Of course I know."

At this moment, Old Man Xian suddenly turned around and asked Zhan An to go upstairs to get something for him. Zhan An could tell that the Old Man wanted her to leave. She only paused before turning around and quietly climbed up the stairs.

Only when Zhan An was gone did Old Man Xian look back at Xian Jian. "It's only a few small incidents and the team can solve it without you. Find time for you to go to America."

Xian Zihao had predicted that the Old Man would make such a decision. While listening to this, his expression was calm as usual.

On the other hand, Xian Jian's expression froze and there was a surprise in his eyes. "America? Dad, you …"

Xian Jian wasn't like Xian Guiying and Xian Zihao. They have Xian Enterprise to operate in the United States, and Xian Jian has never been to the United States for more than twenty years. There was only one possibility that the Old Man would let him go there suddenly.

Old Man Xian said lightly. "The reason I let Xiaoan leave is because I don't want her to feel sad when she heard this. I don't want you to hurt my daughter-in-law over and over again because of the past mistake you made. But, Yijun's mother was sent to the United States for more than twenty years, and you have never stepped a foot there. Before this, I really didn't agree with you meeting her but now, you must go and see her."

Seeing the change in Xian Jian's expression, Old Man Xian said coldly, "I did send her to America many years ago but I did it for your own good, for our Xian Family, and for that woman's identity. If someone found out about this, the consequences would be unimaginable."

Being scolded by the Old Man in front of his son, Xian Jian felt a little embarrassed. He glanced at Xian Zihao.

Xian Zihao remained expressionless as he walked to the French window. He raised his head to look at the bright moon outside.

"Dad, everything that happened that year is over."

Xian Jian raised his eyebrows and then said in a low voice, "The evidence should have been long gone. If it weren't for the fact that I messed up with Yijun's mother at that time, these things would have been covered up. I never mentioned it, so why do you mention it all of a sudden?"

"I mentioned it?" Old Man Xian turned around with a face full of unhappiness. "Huh! This Old Man has been saving your ass for a long time! At this time I still have to worry about you. I know after twenty years, your feelings for the woman have faded, but this time, you have to go. Look at her condition, stay with her for a while and watch the people around her carefully. See if there are any suspicious strangers approaching her, and…"

The Old Man paused for a moment, then whispered. "Don't let Yijun know."

Xian Jian did not say anything. After a while, he said, "Xiaoan definitely knows who I will meet when I go abroad alone. She knows about what happened recently. If I said that I was going to America to work, I was afraid it would make her more suspicious."

The Old Man pondered for a moment, "No matter what, she will think about it deeply. But finding a suitable excuse is better than telling her the truth. After all, this Old Man doesn't want you to cause trouble in this family anymore because your past affair! No matter old or young people, we can't fall out with them."

Xian Jian sighed and suddenly exclaimed, "Zihao, how's Ruolan's injury? You and your wife haven't left the country since you got married, right? Xian Enterprise is your business, and you haven't returned to America for several years. I want to look around the company. How about you accompany me there?"

If Xian Jian used this excuse to go to America, Zhan An wouldn't be suspicious of him.

Xian Zihao raised his eyes and looked at Xian Jian. "I have some important projects in the near future but I will be free next week."

Xian Jian nodded. "Next week is fine, I still have some things to do in my place, so this is the right time."

Old Man Xian, on the other hand, was shocked to see Xian Zihao's calm expression. It was as if his grandson had known about the secret they had been hiding for years.

"Zihao, Ruolan is pregnant. Even though she has to fly to America for a long time, she is still in good health. Exchanging environment should be good for her body and mind." Old Man Xian said.

Xian Zihao smiled. His gaze shifted from Xian Jian to the Old Man, "Alright."

****

Jiang Ruolan leaned against the headboard and read a magazine when suddenly, a small figure walked over from the side.

She looked up and saw Xiaoyi holding a bag of jelly, looking at her with her eyes wide open.

Xiaoyi walked to her bedside and looked at her for a long time.

Jiang Ruolan's mouth twitched as she glared at her with the expression of a bad woman. "Little girl, what are you doing?"

Xiaoyi tiptoed and raised the jelly in her hand. She placed the jelly on her bed and said in a crisp voice, "I'll give it to you to eat."

The corner of Jiang Ruolan's mouth twitched once again. This girl's attitude towards her was really too twisted!

Jiang Ruolan put down the magazine in her hands and looked at Xiaoyi with a weird expression. She reached out her free hand to touch her little face. "Little girl, are you trying to make up with auntie?"

Xiaoyi just pursed her lips and turned away unwillingly. Before returning to her bed, she turned her head back twice to look at the jelly on Jiang Ruolan's bed as if she was really reluctant to part with it. Finally, she bit her finger and crawled back into her bed.

Heh, this little girl!

Now, Jiang Ruolan was even more confused. What did Xian Zihao tell this girl that day?

"Xiaoyi, look at what did grandpa bring you?"

The door to the ward being pushed open. Senior Zhou came in with some dolls that the children liked in his hand. He smiled as he walked to Xiaoyi's bed.

Xiaoyi got out of bed and happily went to pick up the doll Senior Zhou gave her. She said sweetly, "Thank you, great grandfather!"

Senior Zhou smiled and touched her head.

Only when Xiaoyi sat there and played with the two dolls, did Senior Zhou turn around and look at Jiang Ruolan.
