Chapter 332 Is Jiang Suining really so magnanimous?
Shen Yanxi had just noticed this word and understood why Jiang Suining gave this thing to him at this time.
"If the person who reported the incident on the cloth is indeed Chu Yishen, then it is related to the murder case in the suburbs of the city." Shen Yanxi's eyes were solemn, and after a pause, he looked at the jade pendant again.
Jiang Suining said: "I have studied this jade pendant privately. The jade is very ordinary and the workmanship can only be considered ordinary, but the pattern on it is a bit strange. I have looked through some related books and found no custom or record of carving such a pattern. So I guess it may have some meaning, or it may be used as some kind of evidence, but I don't know the details."
At that time, she couldn't figure out who the charges on the cloth involved. For the sake of caution, she did not mention the matter to anyone in the Jiang family, nor did she take the jade pendant out to ask the jade shops or craftsmen.
Although she knew there must be a hidden story behind the incident, even if she wanted to uncover the truth and give justice to the deceased, she hoped that it would be done under the condition of ensuring the safety of herself and everyone around her.
"Shen Yanxi, Pei Zhaozhi..."
"Don't worry, I won't tell him the origin of this thing. No matter how this matter is investigated later, you must not get involved." Shen Yanxi said seriously.
Jiang Suining nodded and said, "That would be best."
After saying that, she suddenly laughed again and asked Shen Yanxi.
"Do you think I'm too selfish? After all, I got this purse a long time ago, but I kept it privately. Even today, if I hadn't known what Chu Yisheng said, I would have kept it hidden."
Shen Yanxi chuckled, "Do you think you did something wrong?"
Jiang Suining was silent for a moment and shook his head. "No, to be honest, no matter what you think, I would still make the same choice if I had to do it again."
Maybe it sounds a bit cold, selfish and unjust, but not to mention that those dead people were just strangers to her. Even if they were close people, she would not hand over their things rashly without being able to guarantee her own safety.
The smile on Shen Yanxi's face became even more intense, and he looked at Jiang Suining intently, with love and recognition in his eyes.
"So you have already thought it through clearly. You don't have to worry about what I think. Moreover, if I were you, I would make the same choice as you in the same situation."
The so-called sense of justice and morality cannot solve the problem. Instead, it may cause more trouble due to rashness and impulsiveness.
It was already completely dark. Shen Yanxi packed up his things, said goodbye to Zheng and Jiang Zhitong as usual, and left the Jiang family.
Xier and Lin Jie also got the account books of the past few days and returned to the mansion.
In the room, Jiang Suining was looking through the account book of Zhanxing Tower. Judging from the cash flow, the situation in the past few days was better than she had expected at the beginning. The fifth and sixth floors would be opened soon, and the subsequent profits should be even greater.
After closing the account book, Jiang Suining thought again about the purse he had given to Shen Yanxi.
However, this thought did not last long before she suppressed it.
Since the things have been handed over to Shen Yanxi, Jiang Suining does not intend to worry about it or think too much about it.
Since the matter was traced back to the court officials, given her current status, even if she wanted to get involved, she might not be able to help, and might even end up making things worse.
All she needs to do now is to focus her mind and run the shops well.
On the second day, Jiang Suining went to Zhanxing Tower as usual.
After listening to the managers in Zhanxing Tower report on the next arrangements, Jiang Suining pointed out some mistakes and omissions, but it turned out that nothing serious happened.
When I was about to go to Ningyue Pavilion and Ningxiu Restaurant, as soon as I went out, I saw Zheng Yan'er and Dong Kaijian not far away.
Zheng Yan'er's injuries have not yet healed, so she was going to Zhanxing Tower today. However, before she entered the building, she was stopped by Dong Kaijian who arrived shortly afterwards.
Looking at the two people arguing and the hatred between Zheng Yan'er's eyebrows, Jiang Suining curled his lips and walked forward.
"It seems that Mrs. Dong has recovered well."
Jiang Suining's voice made Zheng Yan'er tremble all over, and her whole body was stiff for a moment.
When Dong Kaijian saw Jiang Suining, his face suddenly became much more nervous.
"Miss Jiang, don't worry, we just happened to be passing by. Yan'er has already realized her mistake and will never go to Zhanxing Tower to cause trouble for you again."
Zheng Yan'er listened to the words of the humble man and glared at Dong Kaijian fiercely. Then she turned to look at Jiang Suining and spoke in a sarcastic tone.
"I have been beaten, and the government has closed the case. You can't possibly be the one to intervene even when I pass by Zhanxing Tower. This street in the Imperial City does not belong to your Jiang family."
Xier followed behind Jiang Suining and immediately said, "Stop being so sarcastic. If our young lady hadn't forgiven you, you would still be in jail now!"
"Hmph, don't talk so nicely, you are all after the Dong family's secret recipe." Zheng Yan'er sneered, "Jiang Suining, this Dong family's wine should have made you a lot of money!"
"Yan'er, don't talk nonsense. Even if Zhanxinglou makes money, it's because Miss Jiang manages it well." Dong Kaijian frowned and said, and then he apologized to Jiang Suining, "Miss Jiang, I have been doing business for so many years, and I really admire your business skills. Yan'er is talking nonsense, you should be magnanimous and don't bother with her."
"Boss Dong, you are worrying too much. I won't take these few words seriously. And what Madam Dong said is also true. The previous matter is over. Let alone appearing on this street, even if Madam Dong wants to dine at Zhanxinglou, as long as she can afford it, I welcome her."
Jiang Suining shook his head slowly, his eyes falling on Zheng Yan'er, like the flickering candlelight by the window when the night wind blows.
Zheng Yan'er's heart trembled instinctively when she saw this, but soon, she gritted her teeth and calmed down all her emotions, squinting her eyes and looking at Jiang Suining suspiciously.
"Are you serious?"
Can Jiang Suining really be so magnanimous?
"Of course it's true. People who do business won't turn away customers. What's more, I have business dealings with Boss Dong. The drinks in Zhanxinglou are supplied by him."
The smile on Jiang Suining's face was impeccable.
The more she acted like this, the more upset Zheng Yan'er felt.
"Okay, then I'm going to have dinner at Zhanxinglou now. Are you welcome?"
"Of course you're welcome. Please come in." Jiang Suining smiled.
Just as he finished speaking, another voice suddenly came from behind him.
"Miss Jiang, I am planning to come and bother you today as well. I wonder if you would welcome me as well?"
Jiang Suining turned around and saw Qin getting out of the carriage.
Jiang Suining couldn't help but smile in his heart as he glanced at Zheng Yan'er again.
What a coincidence, these two came together.
