Chapter 147 Visiting the Zhao Family
Jiang Wansang, in a good mood, originally planned to go out for a walk to see how lively the New Year was in this world without zombies.
As a result, as soon as he walked out of the prime minister's residence, he ran into the Zhao family's carriage.
The servant who got off the carriage smiled and said auspicious words as soon as he saw her: "Miss Jiang, Happy New Year! My mistress asked me to pick her up to celebrate the New Year at home, and the carriage is ready."
Jiang Wansang was a little confused, "Take me to celebrate the New Year?"
The servant had obviously received instructions long ago, and explained in a low voice, "My young lady knew about the commotion at the Prime Minister's residence last night, and also knew that they didn't invite Miss Jiang to the New Year's Eve dinner, so she came here specially to invite Miss Jiang today."
Although ordinary people did not know what happened in the Prime Minister's Mansion last night, the truly powerful people in the imperial city were always paying attention to what was happening in the imperial city, especially in places like the Dali Temple where cases were solved, so they were naturally more informed.
Even Zhao Zhizhi knew that Jiang Wansang came back late last night, so the servant she sent to invite him today also came a little late on purpose.
Jiang Wansang didn't care at all whether the Jiang family invited her to have New Year's Eve dinner together. Even if they did, she would not be interested. However, she did not refuse Zhao Zhizhi's kindness.
But it is not right to visit relatives empty-handed during the New Year, so she asked the Zhao family's servant to stop halfway and go to the street to buy a lot of New Year's goods.
When the carriage arrived at the Zhao family's house, Zhao Zhizhi was standing at the door looking out, obviously having been waiting for a long time.
Today she was wearing a light blue long skirt with a festive red fur coat draped over it. She also had light makeup on her face, and she looked particularly energetic and cheerful.
Seeing the carriage stop, Zhao Zhizhi immediately went to greet it happily, "I knew you would come. The food is ready, and there are many flavors you like."
Jiang Wansang was also beaming. "Happy New Year, and best wishes for prosperity. I wish our Miss Zhizhi great wealth and beauty in the new year, and hopefully, find a husband of her dreams."
"You're the only one who can talk!"
Zhao Zhizhi patted her arm gently, then noticed what she and Zhe Liu were carrying, and curled her lips. "I asked you to come over for dinner, why did you bring so many things with you?"
Jiang Wansang didn't say anything polite, but raised an eyebrow at her, "I've carefully selected a lot of things you'll like for you. If you don't want them, I'll take them back!"
Their relationship wasn't so polite these days, so Zhao Zhizhi followed her lead and said, "That won't do. There's no way I'm going to take back something you gave me!"
As she spoke, she reached out and took some from Jiang Wansang and carried it herself.
The two of them walked into the Zhao family talking and laughing, and handed the things they were carrying to the servants to pack up.
Jiang Wansang was delayed for a while on the way here. Now it was already noon, so the two of them went straight to the dining room.
Father Zhao was waiting in the dining room at this time. When he saw Jiang Wansang, he greeted her enthusiastically.
Zhizhi has liked following him to investigate cases since she was old enough to understand. She can never chat about the same topics as other girls in the imperial city. Although he has a few good friends with rich girls, they are only friends because of family interests. There are almost no ones who can be considered true friends.
But since when, Zhizhi always mentioned the name "Jiang Wansang", and later even called him "Wanwan" affectionately, and told him that this was her best friend.
So even though Zhao's father had no contact with Jiang Wansang, he still treated her with the most cordial and enthusiastic attitude.
Jiang Wansang knew, of course, that he loved Zhao Zhizhi because of her love for her, and she responded with enthusiasm. After all, in her heart, she truly regarded Zhao Zhizhi as a friend.
The Zhao family had no other relatives, and Zhao's father did not take a concubine after his first wife passed away, so there were only Zhao Zhizhi, her father, and Jiang Wansang at the dinner table.
Although there were few people, the atmosphere was lively. Even Zhao's father, who was described in the book as "serious, taciturn, and upright", had a constant smile on his face and was very happy chatting with his two younger generations.
The three of them enjoyed their lunch very much. If Zhao Zhizhi hadn't been worried about causing trouble for Jiang Wansang, she would have wanted to keep her to rest for a night, but in the end she reluctantly sent her to the door.
After this contact, Zhao's father had a very good impression of Jiang Wansang. He also accompanied her to the door and personally arranged for someone to prepare a return gift.
Jiang Wansang did not refuse his kindness, but thought of his final ending in the book, and suddenly withdrew her foot that was about to step onto the carriage.
There is not much description about the Zhao family in the book. It only mentions that Zhao Zhizhi served as a stepping stone for Jiang Zihan, the girl of destiny. However, Zhao's father was unwilling to accept this fact and traced the cause back to Jiang Zihan based on clues.
Just when he was about to find out something, Su Huanyu found out and set him up with charges of "abusing power for personal gain and accepting bribes", and sentenced him to death.
Jiang Wansang was a little hesitant.
She has changed Zhao Zhizhi's ending. Logically, Zhao's father should no longer be targeted by Su Huanyu, but now she and Zhao Zhizhi are friends. Jiang Zihan and Su Huanyu, the male and female protagonists with unique thinking, may still turn their attention to the Zhao family.
Seeing her suddenly stop, Zhao Zhizhi asked in confusion: "What's wrong? Did you forget to take something?"
Jiang Wansang shook her head and turned to look at Zhao's father. "Uncle, as the Minister of Justice, you must have seen many cases where handwriting was used as evidence, right?"
Father Zhao didn't know why she suddenly mentioned this, so he didn't speak immediately and waited for her next words.
Now that he had begun, Jiang Wansang had no reason not to speak out. "Uncle, you should know that as long as you get a manuscript written by someone, it's easy to forge handwriting. The more manuscripts you have, the more convincing your forgery will be."
"Uncle usually practices calligraphy and writes at home, so he should have left quite a lot of ink. If a few pages were missing every now and then, he probably wouldn't have noticed."
Su Huanyu in the book took advantage of this and forged a "bribery letter" that even Zhao's father could not recognize without his father knowing.
Jiang Wansang didn't explain too much about the other things, believing that with Zhao's father's intelligence, he would be able to understand.
This time she did not hesitate any longer, got on the carriage and left the Zhao family.
At the gate of the mansion, the Zhao family's father and daughter looked at the carriage going further and further away, but they did not enter the house for a long time.
Zhao Zhizhi looked at the people around her in confusion, "Dad, what did Wanwan mean by that just now?"
She is not a fool. The words Wanwan just said must have some special meaning.
Of course, Zhao's father also understood. He pondered for a long time, and suddenly he walked towards the mansion without knowing what he was thinking about.
