She Is From The Countryside

   Chapter 16 About the Fifth Master of the Jiang Family

   "Not at all."

  Crash?

  What did she do to collide with others for no reason? After spending so much time together, Xiao Zhao already knew about her character and knew that she would not collide with anyone easily. Then, Xiao Zhao's so-called collision is definitely not the same as what she thought.

   Could it be that in Xiao Zhao's opinion, meeting the other party is a collision?

Is    so exaggerated?

   Or, is that person so scary?

  Xiao Zhao was obviously relieved after hearing what she said, and said repeatedly: "It's good if there is none."

  Shi Yan glanced at her and changed the subject: "However, I sent him back."

  Xiao Zhao widened his eyes and said after a long while, "Shi, Miss Shi, I didn't quite hear what you said just now, can you...can you say it again?"

  Shi Yan smiled and repeated: "I sent him back."

   "He was alone in a wheelchair by the lotus pond, and there was no one around. I was afraid that it would not be safe for him to stay there alone, and that it would be inconvenient for him to go back alone, so I offered to send him back."

   In fact, he could appear there alone in a wheelchair, how could he not be able to go back alone.

   After listening to her words, Xiao Zhao didn't know how to describe his mood at the moment.

   There are too many questions to ask, but what she wants to ask most is: "You, you offered to send him back, and he agreed?"

   "Is that surprising?"

   "More than surprising!"

   The shock reaction was too big, Xiao Zhao took a deep breath and said sorry to calm down and reluctantly smiled: "Miss Shi is laughing, I'm just too surprised."

   "It's fine." Shi Yan said with a chuckle.

   "But Sister Zhao, I see your reaction is so big, is that gentleman usually scary?"

   That gentleman?

   "Miss Shi doesn't know who you met?" Xiao Zhao was surprised.

  Shi Yan smiled lightly and indifferently: "I have a guess. I sent the person to Zhuyuan, but I am not quite sure of his identity." How could he not be sure.

   Even if he didn't ask, the other party was obviously the owner of Bamboo Garden, and his identity was not hard to guess.

  Xiao Zhao sighed lightly and said, "I was sent to Zhuyuan, I was sitting in a wheelchair, I was in my twenties and looked good. In the old house, only the fifth master fits the bill."

   "So that gentleman is your fifth master."

   "Nine times out of ten".

   "Miss Shi, did you meet Fifth Master at the lotus pond gazebo?"

  Shi Yan nodded.

"The fifth master actually seldom goes out. I have seen the fifth master twice in the Jiang family's old house for so many years, once at the annual banquet the year before last, and once at the old house across the lotus pond last year. I saw it not long after I came to live in the old house."

   In addition to the previous encounter with Fifth Master's car at the gate, Miss Shi has met Fifth Master twice within 20 days of living in the old house!

   This luck.

   "The fifth master is not scary. On the contrary, he has a gentle and gentle temperament, and rarely treats anyone coldly."

  Shi Yan Jiacai paused for a moment, and then asked with a chuckle, "Then why do I hear you mention this fifth master, who looks extremely afraid of him?"

Xiao Zhao looked slightly stunned, hesitantly shook his head for a moment, and said, "This... It's not easy to say, the fifth master has a kind of majesty that people don't dare to offend when he sits there, and he is inexplicably afraid of him. It's not just me, I am in the old house. Those who are acquaintances who are fortunate enough to have met the fifth master have similar feelings to me."

   "And everyone in the old house knows that the fifth master is not in good health and likes to be quiet. He usually doesn't like being disturbed by others. Naturally, when everyone mentions the fifth master, there are more concerns and taboos."

is it?

  Shi Yan took a deep look at Xiao Zhao, smiled and said, "So that's how it is."

  I didn't ask any more questions and continued to eat. The way she eats is very elegant, and just looking at it is a kind of enjoyment.

   It's just that she stopped asking, but Xiao Zhao didn't plan to end the topic.

  Xiao Zhao looked at her and hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Miss Shi, you really just met the fifth master and sent him back to Zhuyuan. Nothing happened during this period?"

   "No." Shi Yan said with a smile.

   Xiao Zhao was secretly shocked.

   After making some emotional adjustments, his mood slowly calmed down. Looking at Shi Yan who was eating quietly as before, he couldn't help but ask, "Miss Shi, are you not curious about the fifth master at all?"

   "Curious about what?"

   "For example...how did he get ill, when did he get ill, why did he sit in a wheelchair, etc."

   "I'm not curious." Shi Yan said with a smile.

   It's fake not to be curious, it's just that she doesn't intend to learn from others. Regarding the news of the fifth master Jiang, she would not be so side-by-side to inquire with others.

   Xiao Zhao felt relieved when she saw that she didn't seem to be lying, but was really not curious.

   As if he wanted to remind Shi Yan to light something, he didn't say anything in the end. Shi Yan didn't seem to notice Xiao Zhao's hesitation, and still ate her meal indifferently.

  *

   The day passed quickly, and several cars came in one after another in the old house of the Jiang family. It was the rest of the Jiang family who came back for the family banquet.

  Because she had to wait for other people, the family dinner was a little later than usual dinner time, so Shi Yan was still watching the local news broadcast in the living room of her small building around 6:40.

   It is reasonable to say that Shi Yan is only a guest at the Jiang family's family banquet, so it is not suitable to attend. She originally planned not to go, even if the old lady would repeatedly ask her to go.

   But today, Shi Yan didn't push back. Xiao Zhao reminded her that dinner would not be delivered, saying that the old lady asked her to go to the main building for a family banquet, and she nodded in response.

   After lunch, Jiang Rui didn't come to her, as if she wanted to help the old lady stare at the kitchen and come over to call her together at the banquet time.

   Shi Yan was waiting for Jiang Rui to call her.

   The yard where she lived and Jiang Rui's yard were on both sides of the old lady's yard. Jiang Rui had to pass by the gate of her yard when she went to the main building.

   After a few more minutes, shouts came from outside the courtyard.

   "Xiaoyan, let's go!"

   is Jiang Rui's voice.

  Shi Yan turned off the TV and took out his mobile phone.

   After leaving the yard, I found that besides Jiang Rui, there were old lady Jiang and Jiang Sheng.

  Shi Yan greeted them one by one: "Grandma Jiang, Rui'er, Young Master Jiang."

  The old lady beckoned to her: "Xiaoyan, come and help Grandma Jiang, you are old and your legs are not easy to use."

   Jiang Sheng and Jiang Rui on the side: "..."

   You were still in high spirits just now and didn't let anyone help you, but now your legs and feet are not good?

  Shi Yan walked over to support the old lady, and the old lady said to Jiang Sheng and the two, "Go ahead, I have something to tell Xiaoyan alone."

   Jiang Rui and Jiang Sheng looked at each other, although they were suspicious, they didn't ask any further questions.

   "Let's go, brother." Jiang Rui took Jiang Sheng's hand and accelerated her pace to walk ahead.

  The two were at a distance, and the old lady patted Shi Yan's hand and asked kindly, "Xiaoyan, I heard from Xiao Zhao that you met the fifth man at the lotus pond pavilion at noon?"

Xiao Zhao was the person sent by the old lady to take care of her. Since Shi Yan told Xiao Zhao about this, she never thought that she could hide it from the old lady. She expected that the old lady would ask, but she did not expect that the old lady would. Ask her so soon.

   It seems that Fifth Master Jiang is really special in the Jiang family.

"Yes, Grandma Jiang, I didn't know it was Fifth Master Jiang at first, but I saw him appearing alone in a wheelchair with no one around. I was worried that it would be inconvenient for him to go back, so I offered to send him, and only sent him to Zhuyuan. The identity is slightly guessed."

   "Grandma Jiang, but what's wrong?"

  *

   See you tomorrow~
