"You said that Jin Jin's father passed away half a year ago. Do you think this has anything to do with it?" Ning Ruonan seemed to have thought of something. Xiao He thought to himself, it was indeed right that I brought her here.

"Don't say it, it seems to be true. It was probably from then on that Jiang Qinglan's attitude towards celery was like a completely different person. They didn't even hold her hand when they went out together. Such a young child, leaving her to go to school by herself with a small bag on her back. Every time she looks at me, her heart aches. "

"How did her father die?"

"Mr Xu, let me think. He went to pick up the parsley after school that day, then encountered a car accident on the road." Grandma Zhang lowered her head as if she didn't want to talk about regret.

Ning Ruonan fell into deep thought. He turned around and said to Xiao He:

"Looks like we have to go find Jiang Qinglan and see what she has to say."

"Yes," Xiao He stood up. "Then, Grandma, we'll leave first. If there's any questions, we'll come back to ask you."

"Alright, you guys go first. That woman has a bad temper, you guys be careful. "

Xiao He chuckled. "Got it, Grandma."

Jiang Qing Lan's house was right next door.

Xiao He and Ning Ruonan racked their brains for a plausible reason before ringing the doorbell.

A woman wearing a red blouse opened the door. Looking at her, she was about forty years old. Although she was dressed like a normal housewife, it had to be said that she should have had some looks a few years earlier.

Almost in an instant, Ning Ruonan understood where the sorrow of this woman, Jiang Qinglan, lay.

After her husband passed away, she had to bring along a second-hand oil bottle. She simply didn't have any chance to enter into a new relationship. No matter what her own conditions were, she was destined to waste her precious last bit of youth on this child.

When the woman saw that they were two strangers, she had a puzzled look on her face. She didn't understand who the people who had come were …

The moment Xiao He took out his work permit, Jiang Qinglan's pupils slightly widened.

"Hello." Xiao He tried to smile.

In the next second, Jiang Qinglan's nervous expression was retracted, but she still had a puzzled look on her face:

"Comrade Police, are you here?" He let them in.

"Oh, Miss Jiang, it's like this. We would like to know about your family's population situation."

"My family, just me and my daughter." Jiang Qinglan blurted out.

"Just you and your daughter? "May I ask who the father of the child is …"

"He died in a car accident before." Jiang Qinglan lowered her eyes and said softly.

It seemed that her feelings for her husband were very deep. That was true. He wasn't a kind person, but he was able to treat a child who was unrelated to his husband as his own child. It truly wasn't easy.

"Is the child a boy or a girl?"

"Girl."

"Then she's …"

"It was sent to her original grandmother's house."

Xiao He pretended to understand and nodded.

"Alright, that will do. Goodbye, Lady Jiang."

After saying that, Xiao He and Ning Ruonan stood up one by one.

After seeing them out, Jiang Qinglan had been thinking about how these two looked so familiar.

She touched the dog and went into the kitchen to pick vegetables.

Finally she remembered that the two men were the same ones she had seen on the stairs this morning. The two of them seemed to have entered Grandma Zhang's house.

"I mean, why would the police come here? It must be that old woman again."

Before this, she had always been involved in the matter between her and the celery. She was the one who taught the children at home, so she couldn't understand what the old woman was thinking all day. I'm not her wife, so why would she dare to shout at me in the corridor?

After saying that, Jiang Qinglan took off her apron, ready to find her for a reason.

Knock, knock, knock. Knocking incessantly, Grandma Zhang was wondering who it was, don't break the door.

"Coming, coming. Stop knocking."

As she spoke, Grandma Zhang opened the door. At the moment she saw Jiang Qinglan, she reflexively did not dare to meet her eyes.

After Jiang Qinglan entered the room, she did not sit on the sofa. He was standing not far from the door, with his hands folded.

"Grandma Zhang, tell me, did you get those policemen here?"

"So what if I am?"

"Are you still confident? He asked the police to come to their house for no reason at all. You old man, where did all these evil thoughts come from? If I hadn't respected you as an elderly man, I would have reported you to the police. " Jiang Qinglan stood up excitedly.

Grandma Zhang's face was livid with anger. "You can sue me, what can you sue me for? You still have the face to say, where did you get the celery? "

If I wanted to sue you, I would sue you for interfering in other people's family's affairs. Didn't I tell you already, Jin Jin went back to her grandma's house.

Grandma Zhang's lips trembled. "I advise you to quickly turn yourself in. Otherwise, aren't you afraid that you'll be punished by the heavens?" She pointed at Jiang Qinglan and said, "You vicious woman, don't think that I don't know that it was you who killed Jin Jin." As she spoke, her voice rose in volume.

Jiang Qing Lan Dong suddenly lost control. "You old bastard, what nonsense are you spouting?" As he spoke, he used his hand to push the old man.

Grandma Zhang had cardiovascular disease and a weak body. She pushed him away and he fell to the ground.

Before long, the old man's hands and feet twitched as if he was unable to breathe. She extended her hand towards Jiang Qinglan.

However, Jiang Qinglan was obviously frightened. He stood rooted to the ground, not daring to move.

After a while, the old man stopped moving.

Jiang Qinglan used her hand to feel the old man's aura, and was so frightened that she retracted her hand.

After a very long time, she was still frozen in place, not knowing what to do.

Suddenly she remembered the old man's illness. He seemed to take a medicine.

Thus, she searched for the medicine among the elderly as if her life depended on it.

I found it in the drawer of the TV cabinet.

She opened the bottle and dropped it around the old man.

He wanted to pretend that the old man had died because he hadn't had time to take his medicine when he fell ill.

When she was done, she put on the old man's slippers and went into the bathroom. She took a mop and dragged the footprints on the floor.

He took a cloth and wiped all the furniture he grabbed earlier, including the medicine bottle.

Then she put the slippers back on the old man's feet and put them on. If he listened carefully through the wall, he could tell that there was no one in the corridor right now. She opened the door as if nothing had happened and went out, taking the rag with her. He quickly returned to his own house.
