Chapter 4114 The Real Insider

This is Xiao Yi's first visit to the Jiang family. The Jiang family is different from what he had imagined. There are tall buildings everywhere, and it is full of modern technology.

He thought this place would be like the Xiao family, an ancient and quaint place. However, after he followed the old lady to her residence, he found that it had a different feature.

The old lady's residence was changed to an old-fashioned courtyard. She likes quietness. She usually eats vegetarian food and chants Buddha here, as if she has seen through the world.

No one can come in to disturb her without the old lady's permission. If you dare to violate this rule, you will be punished.

In addition, the back of the old lady's residence is the forbidden area of ​​the entire Jiang family. Except for the old lady, no one is allowed to approach. This forbidden area was set up by the old lady herself.

Later, Xiao Yi learned that the old lady had personally killed her brother and saved the Jiang family from crisis. After that, she had someone clean her brother's head and sew it together with his body.

Finally, she was buried behind her residence. When she was a child, her brother loved her very much. Brothers always do this, but after the old lady married into the Jiang family, the positions of both parties changed.

Xiao Yi could imagine what kind of complicated feelings the old lady had when she raised the butcher knife. She had to do this for the Jiang family. If she had taken into account the friendship between brothers and sisters, perhaps the current Jiang family would have ceased to exist.

She could only choose one of the two choices. In desperation, she chose to sacrifice her brother in exchange for the survival of the entire Jiang family. No one could make any comments on this matter.

Whether the old lady did it right or wrong, only future generations could give an answer, and she herself could not judge herself.

Xiao Yi stepped into the main hall. On both sides of the main hall were placed fine mahogany chairs. On a coffee table, tea had been brewed waiting to entertain Xiao Yi.

"Come in!"

The old lady was the first to enter the main hall, and then she said to Xiao Yi behind her.

"You and Jiang Ying don't need to be so formal and distant here. Just treat it as going back to your own home."

"Thank you, old lady."

In front of the old lady, Xiao Yi's usual unreliable personality also restrained and became much more serious.

"Look, tea!"

The servants came forward to pour tea. The two sisters, Xue Yaoyue Jiang Ying and Jiang Wan, sat opposite Xiao Yi, while Jiang Zhen sat next to Xiao Yi.

The Jiang family is also a famous family. They have to abide by the rules when doing things. The word "rules" must be followed no matter where they go. No one can change this.

When men are talking, it is not the turn of women to interrupt. Women also need to sit separately from men.

"I have heard about you a long time ago. I have always wanted to find an opportunity to see you. I didn't expect that this time, you came to the Jiang family by yourself."

The old lady picked up the teacup. She was already more than a hundred years old, but her face was still rosy and she didn't look old.

If the old lady's hair was dyed black, she would only be regarded as 40 or 50 years old. Women's age is indeed always a mystery.

"Old lady, you are too kind. I don't have any ability to deserve your attention."

"Well, you don't need to be modest in front of me. You dared to compete with Xiao Huaili alone. Although the final result was tragic, it was enough to show your courage. In addition, what you did outside, don't think that I, an old lady, don't know anything."

The Jiang family is such a big family, and the wind and grass outside have already spread here. She smiled and said.

"You have this ability at such a young age. Even in the Jiang family, there are no young people like you."

The old lady praised, and then sighed, as if she felt sorry for something, and her eyes swept over Xiao Yi.

"I see the shadow of Xiao Huaiyi in you. A tiger father has no dog son. If he knew that you are so outstanding, he can also smile in his grave."

What she felt sorry for was Xiao Huaiyi, as well as Xiao Yi's experience and current situation. They were all members of the Xiao clan. If Xiao Yi's identity was legal and compliant, the position of the patriarch of the Xiao clan might fall on him.

Let alone the Jiang family, even in the Xiao clan, young people like Xiao Yi are rare. Such talents have to be left outside. I don’t know what Xiao Qian thinks about this matter. Is he also feeling sorry for such a result?

"Have you seen my father?"

Xiao Yi asked. He wanted to find out more about his father.

"What you said is true. The Jiang family and the Xiao clan had close contacts back then. One of my granddaughters even married into your Xiao clan as a daughter-in-law. How could I not know your father?"

The relationship between the two families is also very common. With such a close relationship, of course they have met.

"It seems that you really want to know the news about your father. I am afraid that you didn’t come to the Jiang family this time to see me, the old lady."

The old lady’s eyes were very bright. The only reason for Xiao Yi to come to the Jiang family was that Xiao Yi had begun to be interested in the truth about Xiao Huaiyi.

Xiao Yi nodded. He would never hide anything when telling the truth in front of the old lady. He asked the old lady.

"I want to know something about my father, which is also the purpose of my visit. Old lady, can you tell me?"

"I have met Xiao Huaiyi. To describe him in one sentence, he is a hero, a man who does great things. Unfortunately, heroes often don't live long."

The old lady said that at that time, Xiao Huaiyi came to the Jiang family on behalf of the Xiao clan to discuss cooperation. The relationship between the two families was very close. Even if there were some conflicts, Xiao Huaiyi would solve them immediately.

This is a man who is truly loyal. He often chooses to suffer losses when cooperating with him and try to maintain a harmonious situation. However, after the Xiao clan changed its patriarch, this prosperous scene will never appear again.

"Is this all you know?"

"All I know is business cooperation. If you really want to know more, then go and see someone."

"Who?"

Xiao Yi couldn't wait. When the old lady said this, Jiang Zhen immediately understood what she meant. He knew whose name the old lady would say. This name seemed to have been forgotten and disappeared in people's world.

But he knew that this person had always been there, waiting for something to happen.

The old lady didn't want to say this, and she didn't want to let strangers bother her, but since Xiao Yi had spoken, she couldn't refuse.

"She is the granddaughter I told you about. She married into your Xiao clan, but because of some things, she was driven back by her man. From then on, she lived in seclusion in the Jiang family and didn't ask about worldly affairs."
