Rebirth in the 50s: The Couple with the Hidden Space novel Chapter 906

Chapter 906: Chapter 779: Acting Like Nothing Happened

Inside the study, Jiang Jiangyu calmed her emotions, surveyed the room, and nodded with satisfaction.

Seeing this, Lin Dingsheng laughed, "Mom, you like it too? This time, stay here for a few more days. Anyway, Dad can eat in the canteen. I’ll take a few days off and take you to visit my younger brother."

"It’s better not to. Mom is used to being over there; it’s more comfortable. After being dismissed from this military district, how could staying here not draw attention?" Jiang Jiangyu didn’t want to remain here and be criticized.

Worried that her son would bring up the past, she quickly changed the topic: "Let’s talk business first. A dirty old lady came to our house today at noon..."

Lin Dingsheng listened attentively as he peeled an apple with a fruit knife while his mother recounted the story in detail. The apple in his hand was peeled several times, breaking intermittently as she expressed her thoughts.

"That’s the situation. Do you think I should privately seek out that wretched girl?"

Lin Dingsheng handed the apple to his mother, "You eat first. I still need to think this over."

"Think about what? This is a rare opportunity. That person said that as long as we help her bring down the Zhou Family, you and your father can be transferred back to Beijing."

Lin Dingsheng wouldn’t think as simply as his mother. Bringing down the Zhou Family, what benefit would it bring him? Even if his aunt isn’t close, he still has his grandfather.

Don’t be fooled by the feud between the Lin and Zhou families. Once the old lady left, his uncle didn’t take any action. He trusts the character of the Zhou family members, but others?

Lin Dingsheng squinted his eyes.

"Mom, it’s better not to get involved with Xiao Lin. How she wants to deal with the Zhou Family is her business, and there’s no need for us to become her weapon in hand."

Jiang Jiangyu said hesitantly, "But, but that could become evidence."

Lin Dingsheng sneered, "Is there anyone in this world dumber than that girl? So what if my aunt saved a dowry for her daughter? She’s spending her money with her salary legitimately. Whether the stuff is there or not, even if it is, it couldn’t possibly serve as evidence."

Jiang Jiangyu gripped the apple tightly, quietly watching her son.

"Mom, have you thought about it? The gold that the old lady gave to Zhou Jiao back then was all donated by her, creating quite a stir. Would she keep those things? Even if they’re there, they would’ve been moved long ago. Don’t listen to that wretched girl’s nonsense. She probably thinks you have a fondness for money and is intentionally luring you."

Upon hearing her son’s words, even Jiang Jiangyu, who was thick-skinned, couldn’t help but blush. Indeed, it was her fondness for money that made her rush over.

Lin Dingsheng comforted, "What’s so shameful about liking money? Since ancient times, birds die for food, and people die for money. It’s a very normal matter. Mom, what’s past is past; don’t dwell on it too much. Living well in the future is the focus."

"Mm. I’ll listen to you, Mom."

"Act as if you know nothing about this matter, and don’t mention it to your aunt. Isn’t my uncle quite capable? Their own daughter doesn’t need our family to worry."

Jiang Jiangyu somewhat didn’t understand her son’s thoughts. But there’s one thing she’s very good at—listening to her son.

"Did that woman make contact with you last time?"

Jiang Jiangyu shook her head.

"With the current situation in Beijing, we know nothing about what’s happening here, which is why I want you to discuss with my maternal grandfather. If..."

Jiang Jiangyu looked at her son without blinking.

"If my uncle is still favored over there, then we shouldn’t get involved in anything. Let’s see how my maternal grandfather responds. He will surely steer things in a direction that benefits our family."

Jiang Jiangyu shook her head disapprovingly, "I still can’t trust your maternal grandfather. He’s too, too upright. I thought of discussing it with your grandfather, but he won’t talk to me. I don’t want to openly involve you three either."
