Chapter 2671: Twins
As for Su Zhuoqian, he was always by Qiao Weiyang’s side.
Everyone believed Huang Shumin and Old Madam Qiao’s nonsense. No one thought too much about Qiao Weiyang and Su Zhuoqian.
In the cemetery.
Sorrowful music sounded.
The rain had stopped, but the sky was still gloomy.
Qiao Jierou only paid her respects in a hurry before making way.
Qiao Weiyang, Qiao Dongliang, and Su Zhuoqian kowtowed three times and completed the ceremony before standing at the side.
After the ceremony, Mayor Xu and the others were about to leave.
Qiao Weiyang had to send them off.
Qiao Dongliang and Su Zhuoqian were called over to put the finishing touch on the words on the tombstone.
Qiao Dongliang picked up the pen and suddenly remembered that he was not from the Qiao family. Logically speaking, someone from the Qiao family should be the one doing this.
However, Qiao Jierou was not worthy.
If Qiao Weiyang did it, Grandma would probably nag at her non-stop. She would make a fuss in front of Grandpa’s tomb, and Grandpa would be worried. He handed the pen to Su Zhuoqian. “Mr. Su, come and help.”
“Okay.” Su Zhuoqian did not object. As Qiao Weiyang’s husband, he was also a member of the Qiao family and Old Master Qiao’s grandson.
Seeing that he was honest and respected Qiao Weiyang, Qiao Dongliang had a
good impression of him. This good impression was not because of Su Zhuoqian’s status and appearance. It was entirely because of his demeanor and style of doing things. He was the kind of person that Qiao Dongliang yearned to be.
Since it was Su Zhuoqian who stepped forward to write, no one in the Qiao family had any objections. Instead, they were flattered that he agreed.
After he was done, Old Madam Qiao said, “Mr. Su, go to the side and wash your hands.”
This was the agreed upon procedure. Su Zhuoqian did not refuse and walked over to wash his hands.
Qiao Jierou thought for a moment and followed.
Su Zhuoqian was washing his hands along the spring water on the mountain. His joints were well-defined, and his fingers were beautiful.
Every part of him was so attractive.
Compared to this man who was like the sun, Lin Heng was like a firefly.
This was not the first time Qiao Jierou had seen Su Zhuoqian, but she was even more stunned during this meeting.
“Mr. Su.” Qiao Jierou stood beside him. “I see that you have a good relationship with my sister. I actually want to remind you of something.”
Su Zhuoqian ignored her and focused on washing his hands as if what she said was nonsense.
Qiao Jierou knew that he could definitely hear her and continued, “My sister is actually already married. She’s now living in Ting Yuan Villa with the sickly young master of the He family. He has been engaged to my sister since he was young. That young master is fine, but he’s sick now… My sister married him long ago.”
After saying that, she waited for Su Zhuoqian’s reaction. However, the man acted as if he did not hear a word and ignored her. It was as if she was just a piece of trash. If he gave even the slightest response, it would be a stain on him.
“Mr. su!” Qiao Jierou did not give up. She wished she could tell him everything about Qiao Weiyang.
“Qiao Jierou!” Qiao Dongliang rushed over and pushed her hard to the ground.
“Who allowed you to talk about Sister like that?!”
Qiao Jierou cried out in pain and realized that her palms had already been scratched.
Only then did Su Zhuoqian turn around. He picked up a clean towel and wiped his hands. He said to Qiao Dongliang, “There’s no need to waste your feelings and energy on someone unworthy.”
When Qiao Dongliang heard this, the anger in his heart unknowingly subsided, and he calmed down.
He quickly explained, “Mr. Su, my sister isn’t that kind of person. It wasn’t her idea to get engaged to the young master of the He family either. The young master of the He family being sick is out of her control. Qiao Jierou only knows how to talk nonsense.”
“I know.” Su Zhuoqian smiled faintly.
Qiao Dongliang was shocked by his smile. How could a man be so handsome and masculine when he smiled?
“Qiao Jierou is always like this, making up stories. She’s not a good person!”
Qiao Jierou said angrily, “Qiao Dongliang!”
Remembering that Su Zhuoqian was still around, she did not dare to lose her temper.
Qiao Dongliang followed Su Zhuoqian and said in a low voice, “If only you were my brother-in -law.”
“Huh?” Su Zhuoqian stopped in his tracks and turned around.
Qiao Dongliang knew that he was being presumptuous. “I’m sorry. That’s not what I meant. I just think that my sister deserves a man like you. If you two get together, you’ll definitely be very happy.”
“Why do you say that?” Su Zhuoqian asked with interest.
Seeing that Su Zhuoqian was not angry, Qiao Dongliang became bolder. “You’re a good person. You can tell right from wrong. I think you’re a good person not purely because of your status or because you’re good-looking. I just think that you and my sister are inexplicably compatible. But don’t tell her this. She seems to be quite protective of her husband. If she finds out, she’ll definitely be angry with me.”
Su Zhuoqian laughed. “You’re indeed deserving of your sister’s doting.”
Qiao Dongliang watched him turn around and leave. He did not understand what he meant. Could it be that Mr. Su was really interested in his sister?
Should he help matchmake the two, then?
Qiao Jierou’s hands were injured, and she looked disheveled. When Old Madam Qiao saw this, she couldn’t help but ask, “How did this happen?”
“Qiao Dongliang accidentally bumped into me.”
“Is Dongliang alright? Did he fall? Where is he?” Old Madam Qiao immediately asked.
Qiao Jierou’s heart ached. She thought about her relationship with Qiao Weiyang and Qiao Dongliang. Compared to Qiao Weiyang, she was the favored one.
But compared to Qiao Dongliang?
After the funeral, everyone dispersed.
Only Qiao Weiyang stayed, wanting to spend more time with her grandfather.
Su Zhuoqian, who had received a call, also left.
Qiao Weiyang stood in front of her grandfather’s grave and laid out a chess set.
She sat on the ground and said softly, “Grandpa, let’s play a round.”
After a long time, she held the chess piece and smiled. “I’m indeed inferior to you. I admit defeat.”
She stood up and heard a familiar voice behind her. “Mommy!”
It was Jingyun and Xiao Bao.
She immediately turned around and saw the two little kids running over with their schoolbags.
Su Zhuoqian had sent them over.
Jingyun walked over and said softly, “Mommy, we know that your grandfather has passed away, so we asked Daddy to pick us up as soon as school ended at noon. We have to send him off too.’
“Yes, we want to send him off too.” Xiao Bao nodded.
Qiao Weiyang looked at them gently. “Okay, thank you for coming.”
Xiao Bao placed the white chrysanthemum in his hand in front of the tomb. “Great-grandpa, I’m Xiao Bao, your great-grandson. Big Brother and I came to pay our respects to you. Don’t worry. Big Brother, Daddy, and I will definitely take good care of Mommy. We won’t let her suffer.”
He bowed and knelt down..
