CHAPTER 283: CHAPTER 283: THE TWO ELDERS OF THE JIANG FAMILY

Hearing voices, Jiang Xue’s face changed, and she quickened her pace, heading towards her parents’ house. Mr. Mu sensed the change in Jiang Xue’s emotions, glanced at the open door, and followed her.

At this time, the Jiang family. Father Jiang and Mrs. Jiang were entertaining guests who had traveled from afar, an elderly man over fifty years old.

Beside the old man stood two men who looked like they could be butlers or bodyguards.

As soon as Jiang Xue entered, the conversation inside stopped. Father Jiang and Mrs. Jiang saw Jiang Xue and smiled, saying, "Xue’er, you’re back!"

The elderly couple also turned to look at Jiang Xue. When they saw her, their faces filled with excitement. The old lady even stood up, her eyes fixed on Jiang Xue, as if she was seeing a long-lost treasure.

This elderly couple was none other than Old Sir Jiang and Old Madam Jiang from South City. A few days ago, Old Sir Jiang’s people discovered Jiang Xue’s identity as their granddaughter.

Because of this, the couple was overjoyed and decided to see Jiang Xue, the granddaughter they had never met, in person. They made arrangements for their affairs in South City and, under the pretense of a leisurely trip, came straight to Xu City.

Besides their confidants, none of their sons or daughters-in-law knew about the elderly couple’s trip to Xu City.

Jiang Xue cast a nonchalant glance at the guests in her home, quickly withdrawing her gaze, and said to Father Jiang and Mrs. Jiang, "Dad, Mom, didn’t I tell you not to bring strangers into the house when I’m not home? Have you forgotten the lesson from last time?"

"Xue’er, don’t be angry, it’s our fault. But they’re not strangers; they are your grandparents."

"Grandparents?" Jiang Xue was taken aback, and she understood a bit in her heart. However, she didn’t show it on her face, and directly said, "Weren’t my grandparents already passed away? How could I still have grandparents?"

If one listened carefully, they could hear a hint of resentment in Jiang Xue’s tone. Regardless of why the Jiang family abandoned her, she harbored some resentment towards them.

So naturally, she didn’t have a good attitude towards the suddenly appearing grandparents.

"Xue’er, how can you talk like that? These are your real grandparents." Father Jiang glanced at Jiang Xue, although he was quite pleased with her attitude. But in front of outsiders, appearances still had to be maintained.

Besides, he didn’t want Jiang Xue to be rude in front of others.

After being rebuked by Father Jiang, Jiang Xue didn’t say anything more. But she also ignored the Jiang family’s elderly couple, who were looking eagerly at her, and instead turned to the recently entered Mr. Mu, saying, "Dad, Mom, Mr. Mu is here."

With Jiang Xue’s reminder, Father Jiang and Mrs. Jiang noticed Mr. Mu, who had unknowingly entered, and apologized, "Sorry, Mr. Mu, for neglecting you."

"It’s fine, we’re family, no need to be so polite." Mr. Mu waved his hand, then sat down on a sofa on the side.

As soon as he sat down, Old Sir Jiang and Old Madam Jiang recognized him, and they immediately put aside the matter about Jiang Xue, saying, "Brother Mu, what are you doing here?"

"Brother Jiang, sister-in-law, this is exactly what I wanted to ask you. Weren’t you in South City? Why did you suddenly come to Xu City?" Mr. Mu greeted them and asked.

Looking at Old Sir Jiang and his wife, Mr. Mu couldn’t help but think of what Jiang Xue had told him earlier. He wondered if these two had come because of Jiang Mingzhu?
