Chapter 407: If you don’t make money, you are a fool
When mentioning the Jin family in Beijing, Xie Jiang's mind flashed with Jin Yan's face, which was only slightly inferior to Zhou Yunyu's, and he didn't have many other impressions.
The old man of the Jin family holds a high position and great power in the military. Even after retirement, he can still influence many things.
The old man and his wife have three sons and two daughters, two of whom are in the army with the rank of lieutenant general.
He has a son and a daughter who are both in politics and are ministerial-level officials. His youngest daughter is also mainly engaged in cultural and artistic work within the system.
There is no reason for such a family to look for me for a blind date. The most likely possibility is that there is a thief in the family.
Isn’t there an old saying that goes, “You can guard against thieves day and night, but you can’t guard against thieves in your own house.”
No matter how strong a fortress is, it is much easier to break it from the inside than from external forces.
Xie Jiang's thoughts turned around, and he lowered his voice and said to his second aunt, "Do you have any contact information? I want to contact the other party myself."
The person who came to see Second Aunt should be the wife of one of the three sons of the Jin family, or the two daughters.
It is also possible that he is from the Jin family's side branch.
When Jin Yan appeared at the Li family's banquet, she had read the information about his adoptive parents and could look it up again later.
"Yes, the person who is looking for me also hopes to talk to you in person." Second Aunt picked up the phone and unlocked it, whispering, "Don't worry about the status and power of the Jin family. If you don't want to go on a blind date, just turn it down. The old man won't dare to embarrass you."
Unless the old man wants to go to the hospital on New Year’s Eve.
"Thank you, Second Auntie. I know my limits." Xie Jiang chuckled. "Grandpa doesn't dare to embarrass me. Didn't you see that he would rather deny my parents than recognize me?"
The old man treated her well, but it was more of a weighing of the pros and cons, unlike her three brothers who treated her well with all their heart.
"Just understand. Your parents' disapproval is their loss. You still have me, your second uncle, and your two cousins." Second Aunt looked around and lowered her voice. "Your father is mentally unstable, just like your grandfather. He's crying so hard now. He's really at his wit's end, so he has to come to you for help."
This child has such a miserable life. She finally found her biological parents, but not only did they not acknowledge her, they also clung to the adopted daughter who caused their biological daughter to be stranded outside.
What on earth would make a criminal who has been sentenced for decades give up his own child?
"They can't find me, so I won't get involved in what my brother and the others do." Xie Jiang didn't care.
The three brothers have feelings for their adoptive parents. No matter how ridiculous they are, it is impossible for their brothers to really disown them.
At most, we will not support them financially.
"That's how it should be. If parents don't treat their children equally, don't blame them for being filial." Second Aunt couldn't stop laughing. "I'm relieved that you think this way."
Xie Jiang is clear-headed and not easily wronged, which is a good thing.
No matter how much the couple likes the child, they live far away. Even if it only takes a few hours to fly there, it will still delay things.
Xie Jiang smiled sweetly at Second Aunt and applied to add the person who found Second Aunt and passed the message to him as a friend.
The other party seemed to have been waiting, and the application was approved immediately after it was submitted.
She raised her eyebrows and asked straight to the point: What do you want me to help you find out?
The other party was typing, and this state lasted for about half a minute before finally replying with two words: thief within.
Xie Jiang curled the corners of his lips, thought for a while, and asked: Do you have any suspects? How much reward do you plan to pay?
Perhaps because he had thought about it before, the other party responded quickly this time: I have a partner, and I will pay 50 million immediately once I find evidence.
Xie Jiang replied immediately: OK.
If you don't make money, you are a fool.
The Jin family is quite low-key in Beijing, while the Li family, which is loud and likes to show off in the media, was eliminated from the circle of wealthy families overnight.
The Chen family suffered heavy losses.
Although Chen Sinian took corresponding measures in time, it was only enough to maintain the luxurious life of the brother and sister, and no one else could take care of them.
Several other families are still struggling on the brink of bankruptcy, and even a large family like the Shen family is in danger.
Cui Nanlu has been quiet for several months, and it is not difficult to see the current situation of the Shen family.
Their uncle, who had successfully started a business overseas and had assets worth hundreds of billions, had no intention of helping Shen Tingyan.
Xie Jiang stopped thinking, read the list of suspects sent by the Jin family, exited the window and locked the screen.
For tonight’s reunion dinner, except for my stepfather and mom, the rest of the Jiang family members are back.
The dinner was very sumptuous. Dabao and Xiaobao were the real funny ones, creating a great atmosphere.
After dinner, everyone went their separate ways. My second and third uncles accompanied the old man to play chess, while my eldest brother and his cousins drank tea and talked about technology and business.
The second brother took his second sister-in-law to take a walk in the garden, while the eldest sister-in-law and several cousins took Dabao and Xiaobao to set off fireworks.
Xie Jiang was called away by Jiang Yue and followed him upstairs out of curiosity.
"I'm recording a new album right now. I'd like to hear your opinion before it's officially released to see if there's anything that needs to be revised." Jiang Yue opened his recording studio and invited her in. "My eldest brother built this studio for me. Besides me, you're the only one who's been in here before."
He didn't like his piano being touched by others, not even by his elder brother, let alone Jiang Xuenian.
"Thank you for your trust, Third Brother." Xie Jiang joked with a smile, "Do you want me to print a banner and hang it up to say thank you for letting me into the recording studio?"
Jiang Yue's mouth twitched, and he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
He waved his hand to signal her to sit down, and the lights in the recording studio came on, with a bright white beam of light shining above the pure white piano.
He walked over, sat down gracefully, and began to play the first song of his new album.
This new album contains a total of six songs, and he is very satisfied with each one.
With the small program written by his sister, he has a constant source of inspiration.
Jiang Yue quickly immersed himself in the new music he had written. The music flowed like a spring, surrounding him softly.
Xie Jiang supported his chin and admired quietly, his admiration for Jiang Yue increasing a little bit.
Everyone says that the third brother is a genius.
Geniuses are not only incredibly talented, but also extremely hardworking and have high standards for themselves.
After the song, Xie Jiang heard footsteps outside the door. Belatedly, he thought of Zhou Yunyu and felt a little guilty.
It was he who suggested letting him come to the Jiang family to celebrate the New Year. It was really wrong to leave him behind after the New Year's Eve dinner.
"Shh..." Zhou Yunyu raised his hand and made a gesture for silence, then walked into the recording studio quietly, holding the pastries.
Hearing Jiang Shuo say that they were upstairs, he immediately went to the kitchen to pack some pastries he had made that afternoon, fearing that she would be bored listening to him, but also feeling embarrassed to leave suddenly.
Jiang Yue is her third brother after all.
"Thank you." Xie Jiang pointed to the empty seat beside him and thanked him silently.
San Ge always devotes himself to every performance. She herself is not a person who likes to listen to live performances, and it is difficult for her to persist in listening to the whole performance without something to eat.
When she was attending a concert in Beijing, she relied entirely on eating melons to sustain herself.
An hour later, Jiang Yue's new album was finished.
He slowly stood up and looked at Xie Jiang expectantly, "How is it?"
"Perfect!" Xie Jiang clapped enthusiastically. "Every song is filled with emotion, and the technique is superb. This album is going to be a hit."
She said seriously that every song in the new album has the potential to become a classic.
"If you think it's perfect, I'm relieved." Jiang Yue glanced at Zhou Yunyu and couldn't help laughing. "Let's go upstairs to watch the fireworks. It's almost time."
Brother Xiao Zhou is a bit miserable.
If you want to catch up with your sister, you still have to wait.
