Chapter 668 Ignore Them
Chapter 668 Ignore Them
Although Chen Qingyu was worried about Jiang Ping's health, she didn't dare to disobey Jiang Zhen when she heard him say that, so she had to follow Jiang Zhen to the other side of the ancestral hall and keep some distance from the others.
"A Ping, what's going on? Don't you have any clue?"
"No, I asked him but Ping didn't want to tell me those things. But An seems to know something."
"Then why don't you call him and ask him to come back and persuade his brother?"
"Why didn't I call the salvage number? Before I called you, Jiang An, the first person I thought of was Jiang Ping. I thought Jiang Ping didn't want to listen to me, so I wanted An to come back and persuade him. But after hearing about it, An told me to stop caring, saying that this was Ping's retribution, and then hung up the phone."
"Neither of them wanted to tell me. I had no other choice but to ask you, Mr. Jiang, to come out and solve this problem."
"That's weird! Are the two brothers having a conflict?"
"Who knows? Obviously everyone has been busy these past few days, and Ping and An didn't even bump into each other at the old house. This shouldn't happen. What kind of conflict would cause this between two brothers? No matter what the matter is, Ping is still the older brother. Does An really have to see Ping kneeling here and hurting himself to feel relieved?"
"Ah'an is not that kind of person. Qingyu, please don't say these angry words again."
"If it's not like this, then what is it? After hearing what I said, Ah An didn't care about his brother at all. How could I, as his eldest sister-in-law, not be angry? And it seems that the matter is still related to Ah An. Old Jiang, what do you think Ah An is dissatisfied with that he has to make Ah Ping kneel in the ancestral hall at such an old age!"
"Don't get excited. We haven't investigated this matter thoroughly yet, so don't jump to conclusions. Let me call An first to ask about the situation."
Seeing that Jiang Zhen was relatively fair and didn't favor anyone, Chen Qingyu's grievances were relieved a lot.
Seeing that Chen Qingyu didn't say anything else but agreed to his arrangement, Jiang Zhen immediately asked someone to bring the phone and called Jiang An.
Jiang An was still in the cemetery with Bai Yalan. Although it was already very late and Jiang An was the only living person in the cemetery, he was not afraid of anything.
The reason why he came to the cemetery to see Bai Yalan was not because he wanted to say anything, but after knowing the truth of the year and the things his brother and father had done, Jiang An always felt that he should come to the cemetery to see Bai Yalan to make him feel better.
After Jiang An came to the cemetery, he said nothing and just sat quietly in front of Bai Yalan's grave. No one knew what Jiang An was thinking. Even Jiang An himself didn't know how to tell Bai Yalan about what happened that year. He just sat quietly on the steps and let himself go.
Jiang Zhen called at this time. Jiang An had not reacted when the phone vibrated in his pocket. After the skin near his pocket was numbed, Jiang An slowly realized that it was his own phone ringing.
The caller ID showed that it was Uncle Jiang's number. Jiang An pulled himself out of his trance and returned to real life. When he saw that the person calling him was Jiang Zhen, Jiang An immediately realized why the other party called him regardless of the time.
Jiang An didn't want to answer it but there was no way he could keep avoiding it like this, and this was not the best way to solve the problem at all.
As he answered the phone, he also stood up and left the cemetery. Bai Yalan's tombstone was getting farther and farther behind Jiang An. Jiang An didn't want Bai Yalan to be disturbed by these people. He wanted her to lie here quietly, so he planned to get up and leave.
Jiang Zhen originally thought that Jiang An would not answer his call, but just before the call was automatically hung up, Jiang An still picked up the phone. Jiang Zhen felt relieved when he saw this.
"Uncle Jiang."
"Aan, I'm at the old house now."
"I know. I also know why Uncle Jiang called me. Uncle Jiang, don't ask me about these things and I won't tell you. This is a matter between me and my brother. I don't want you to know or get involved. You don't have to worry about it."
Seeing Jiang An say this, Jiang Zhen had so much to say that he didn't even need to say it out loud.
"Well, since you guys don't want to say anything, I can't do anything about it. But Ping is your brother after all. Do you really want to see him kneeling in the ancestral hall and ruining his body? Can't we just sit down and talk it out face to face?"
"What he did was even more serious than what he did today, kneeling in the old house. Asking him to confess to the Jiang family's ancestors in the ancestral hall is considered a light punishment. Otherwise, he would definitely not live a peaceful life for the rest of his life."
Jiang Zhen was shocked by Jiang An's words. Although he couldn't hear clearly what happened between the two Jiang brothers, Jiang An's words were indeed very serious, otherwise he would not have revealed these things to him.
"Okay, since you insist on doing this, I won't say much. I just hope you won't regret it in the future."
"I won't regret it. Uncle Jiang, it's so late now, why don't you rest in the old house for a night before going back? Anyway, someone will clean your room in the old house every day, so you don't have to rush back to the city overnight."
"No need. When people get old, they want to stay in places they are familiar with. I am not used to living in the old house, so I might as well go back. It's not me driving anyway, so it's the same if I rest in the car later."
"Uncle Jiang, you have gone to the old house specially for this matter. I feel really bad about it. When I have time, I will go to Uncle Jiang in person with gifts to apologize to you."
"It's okay. Come visit me next time when you have time. Don't bring anything. We don't need anything at home. If you bring anything every time you come, it will be a waste if you can't finish it."
"Okay, then I'll come see you when I'm free, and I'll chat with you then."
"Okay, I'll be waiting then."
Jiang Zhen and Jiang An finished their phone calls. The people on the other end and Chen Qingyu were still waiting for news from him. Jiang Zhen turned around, looked at everyone's inquiring eyes, and shook his head to indicate that there was nothing he could do.
After seeing this, Chen Qingyu felt like the sky was falling. If even Jiang Zhen couldn't solve the problem, then she really didn't know who to ask in the Jiang family to persuade Jiang Ping. But just letting Jiang Ping kneel down was not a solution either.
When everyone was discussing what to do outside, there was a noise inside the ancestral hall, similar to the sound of a heavy object falling. Chen Qingyu's heart skipped a beat and he suspected that Jiang Ping had an accident, so he immediately ran in to check.
As expected, Jiang Ping fell to the ground due to exhaustion and passed out. After Jiang Ping fell into a coma, the Jiang family became extremely lively that night, and the liveliness only faded a little bit at dawn.
Jiang Mubai went to bed early last night and didn't know what happened in the old house last night. Although there was a lot of noise in the old house last night and Jiang Mubai was awakened from her sleep, no one came up to call her so she didn't take it to heart.
She slept until dawn, and her body's biological clock woke her up at the normal time.
