Chapter 258: Chapter 258 There Really is a Problem Chapter 258: Chapter 258 There Really is a Problem Mianmian was immensely relieved that her mother-in-law had believed Zhaodi’s words and hadn’t taken her two sons back to her parental home yesterday, otherwise she would have been devastated.

Seeing that what her daughter said was all true, Zhao Xiaojuan finally felt at ease and became even more convinced that she was carrying a boy.

Jiang Changhe looked at her belly with a face full of ecstatic joy, “Son, son, he finally had a son, heaven has eyes!”

But Su Wanyu, seeing her daughter’s pale face, thought she had been frightened by the landslide and soothed her by stroking her little head, “Mianmian isn’t scared, right? Mom and Dad are right here.”

Jiang Mianmian shook her head, “Mom, I wasn’t scared, just a bit sleepy.”

She was used to taking an hour’s nap every noon, and if she didn’t sleep at that time, she would feel lethargic.

“My daughter isn’t that faint-hearted.”

Jiang Changhai scooped Jiang Mianmian up in his arms and headed inside, “If you’re sleepy, let’s go back to the room and take a nap.”

Once inside, he gently tucked her into the warm bed, “Sleep now.”

Jiang Mianmian softly hummed in agreement, closed her eyes to summon sleepiness, and was just drifting off when she heard her mother whisper apprehensively, “Brother Hai, thinking about how our daughter almost encountered the landslide still makes my heart pound.”

Jiang Changhai also lowered his voice, “Hey, don’t scare yourself. Mianmian is safe and sound right here. Our daughter is a reincarnation of the Wenqu Star, she definitely won’t come to harm.”

“That’s true.”

Su Wanyu nodded and discussed with him, “Should we bring something later to thank Zhaodi?”

After all, had it not been for her, her mother-in-law would have returned to her parental home yesterday.

“No need, she didn’t really do anything,” Jiang Changhai waved his hand dismissively, he wasn’t one to feel indebted over a mere trifle.

However, there was something he was concerned about, “Wife, don’t you think Zhaodi has been a bit strange since she fell into the water?”

“That’s because Zhaodi can dream of immortals, it’s a blessing from the immortals,” Su Wanyu, like the rest of the Jiang family, had completely believed what Zhaodi said.

Jiang Changhai scoffed, “Blessing of immortals, my foot! If there really were immortals, Old Lady Ma from the neighboring village, who prays to the Buddha everyday, wouldn’t have lost her two sons prematurely.”

Su Wanyu, “… then what do you think is going on with Zhaodi?”

Jiang Changhai leaned in closer, “Do you remember when Teacher Liu visited our home earlier this year? Zhaodi’s eyes were filled with jealousy when she looked at our daughter; I thought something was off, so I’ve been vigilant ever since. Guess what I’ve discovered?”

Su Wanyu glared at him annoyed, “Now’s not the time to keep me in suspense.”

“Alright, alright,” Jiang Changhai readily agreed, “I noticed that kid looks at her parents and the Third Branch with such cold eyes, full of resentment, as if they were her mortal enemies.”

“This, this,” Su Wanyu suddenly felt a chill, “could it be that when Zhaodi fell into the water last time, she was entangled by a water ghost?”

Jiang Changhai stroked his chin, “I can’t be sure, but there’s definitely something wrong; we should keep our daughter away from Zhaodi in the future.”

“But we live in the same courtyard, always bumping into each other, how can we keep them apart? And lately, Zhaodi’s been coming over frequently to see Mianmian.” The more Su Wanyu spoke, the more she felt there was really something wrong with Zhaodi.

Zhaodi wasn’t always this clingy to Mianmian.

Seeing his wife so anxious, Jiang Changhai patted her back reassuringly, “Don’t be afraid, wife, your man is here. With just one punch, I could send Zhaodi flying.”
