After entering the room and locking the door, he said in a low voice, ”I want her cell phone. I want to see who she's been contacting recently. The person who can communicate the most is the person I have to call the most to settle this matter with! ”

Jiang Ping nodded as he heard his reasoning. He walked to the side of the cabinet, opened it and took out a small bag. He handed it to her. ”Take a look at it yourself!” ”Let's see if there's anything you need other than your phone.”

Jiang Ying received the bag and opened it. Sure enough, she saw a pink phone lying quietly inside.

She immediately took it out and carefully looked through the incoming calls and phone numbers several times. Finally, she confirmed that there was a phone number that Xia Xiaoxin had been contacting almost every day recently.

This was a phone call from Yue Yang. It seemed like Mo Zixiao was still alive, but he had gone back to his country to recuperate.

A big rock fell from her heart, so she casually rummaged through her small bag, only to find that apart from some essential cosmetics, there was nothing useful inside.

He stuffed the phone into his own bag, put everything else back, closed the bag, and put it back in the drawer.

”Is everything settled?” Jiang Ping asked stiffly.

”Yes.” It should be done! ” Jiang Ying nodded. She took out a golden card from her bag and handed it over to him, ”There's a million in here.” Take it! Take out some money to build a new house in the village, so no one will look down on you and Wei. Other than taking a few tens of thousands to use during the survival period, you can keep the rest of the money on deposit. Later on, Xiao Wei will go to university to buy a house and settle down in the city. So much money has been given to you and Little Wei at a fixed rate of interest, which is already enough to support you and Little Wei. ”

He didn't have the right to refuse. If he refused now, he would probably invite her to scold him again, not wanting to listen to any more of her rebuke. Therefore, he nodded his head and obediently accepted the money, placing it carefully in his pocket.

Seeing that she was done with her work, Jiang Ying was no longer in the mood to stay. She turned around and walked out of the room and into the study room, holding her laptop in her hands.

Jiang Ping opened his mouth wide, but didn't utter a single word in the end.

Jiang Ying hurried downstairs with a notebook in her arms. When his mother saw him, she asked, ”You're leaving again after just returning?”

Jiang Ying smiled and nodded, ”Yes!” There's something wrong with this computer. I'm worried that the important documents inside will be lost, so I have to immediately take them out and fix them. ”

”Sigh. Just call someone to come back and fix it. Why would you need to go there yourself? ”

”This place is too far away from the city, who would want to come here? ”Anyway, I'm going to the city to do some official business. When I'm done with my work, I should probably fix this computer by then!” Jiang Ying hurriedly got on the car and placed the computer on the passenger seat.

”Then will you be able to make it back for lunch?” Mother Wu asked.

”No. Not at noon. Furthermore, if I have to leave now, I might not even be able to return for ten to fifteen days! ” Jiang Ying casually lied.

”So it's like that! Then he would have to take care of himself outside! The weather is so cold that you have to keep it warm! ” Mother Wu nagged at him worriedly, not asking any further questions.

Having been a servant for so many years, she naturally knew what to ask and what not to ask.

Furthermore, both she and Little Gao were used to Xia Xinxin's odd behavior, so they didn't find anything out of the ordinary about Jiang Ying's words.

After watching Jiang Ying drive away, Mother Wu returned to her room in peace.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw Jiang Ping carrying a black bag downstairs in a hurry.

”Mother Wu, I'm going out too.” Jiang Ping hurriedly said as he changed his shoes.

”Where to? ”Why didn't you take Xinxin's free ride just now?” Wu Ma asked curiously.

”She's in a hurry. I don't want to get in her way. I'll take the bus or call it myself. ” Jiang Ping changed into a pair of shoes and hurried out.

”Then why don't we wait until little Gao comes back to send you off!” Mother Wu quickly chased after him.

”No need. ”I'll go by myself, but it'll be much faster!” Jiang Ping waved his hand without looking back.

”Sigh!” What happened today? So busy? ” Mother Wu looked at Jiang Ping's back as he walked away and sighed. Then, she turned around and went back into the house.

While Jiang Ying was on the road, Xia Xinxin's cell phone rang.

Picking it up, he saw that it was the number Xia Xinxin had been calling almost every day.

After hesitating for a second or two, he picked up the phone, ”Hello? Zi Xiao? ”
