Chapter 161 Entrance Banquet
"Tsk tsk, so Jiang He is actually the Jiang family head's biological daughter. When I heard the Jiang family head say that just now, I thought Jiang Yaoyi was the biological daughter."
"I never imagined that the Jiang family's daughter, whom they've raised for so many years, was a fake. It seems that Jiang He is the rightful and true daughter."
"That's right. It would have been better if we had just said that Jiang Yaoyi was a fake heiress earlier. I think everyone is just like me, not knowing who the real heiress is and who the fake one is."
"Yes, if Elder Jiang hadn't said it, I would have always believed that Jiang Yaoyi was the true daughter of the Jiang family."
The reporters were talking loudly, and Jiang Shan's face turned green when he heard it.
He instinctively wanted to protect Jiang Yaoyi, but seeing Jiang Shu's expression, he didn't dare to speak.
Despite the flashing lights from the reporters, Jiang Shu maintained her carefully crafted smile. She instructed her bodyguard to put the certificate away before slowly speaking:
"Our Jiang family only has one daughter, Jiang He."
Jiang Shu's words indirectly confirmed that Jiang Yaoyi was not the Jiang family's daughter, and that Jiang He was the Jiang family's only daughter.
The reporter, upon hearing Jiang Shu's account, acted as if they had stumbled upon some juicy gossip, even adding several recording devices from different angles:
"Elder Jiang, there are rumors that Jiang He is at odds with the Jiang family. Just now, the Jiang family head even said that he would drive Jiang He out of Jiang Le."
The reporter's words were sharp.
Jiang Shu smiled generously:
"You must have misheard. My Hehe is very filial. I love Hehe so much, how could I possibly send her away?"
Jiang Shu changed the subject and gave an impeccable answer to the reporter's question. The reporter quickly moved the microphone forward again:
"But I remember that other members of the Jiang family hired someone to kill Jiang He at Beihuai No. 1 Middle School. This was in the news. Doesn't that clearly show that the Jiang family was targeting Jiang He? Or was it someone's doing?"
The surrounding reporters listened to the reporter who was speaking and were slightly surprised; they hadn't heard of this.
How can you still dig this up after all this time? How can someone in the same industry be so stubborn?
Jiang Shu was unaware of her granddaughter's situation. Jiang Hua had mentioned to her that she had five spiritual roots, but she hadn't expected that anyone else in the Jiang family had bullied Jiang He.
She was starting to get curious about her granddaughter's personality. She was capable of crippling Jiang Yaoyi, so her strength must be at least at the Golden Core stage, yet Jiang Hua said she had a crippled spiritual root.
She remembered that a useless spiritual root could absorb almost no spiritual energy, so Jiang He's talent was truly remarkable.
The top scorer in the college entrance examination, and the top scorer in the whole state, apart from Lao Jiang and Jiang Hua, none of the Jiang family members can see through it.
Jiang Shu answered the reporter's questions with ease, glossing over the issues in just a few words.
Jiang Shu coughed softly:
"Excuse me, I'm getting old and my health isn't good; I'm feeling a bit tired."
She looked tired, and the reporters could tell at a glance that Jiang Shu was unwilling to be interviewed by them anymore.
Although Jiang Shu is eighty years old, considering that the average lifespan of ordinary interstellar citizens is over 150 years, this age is considered to be in her prime.
Not to mention that Jiang Shu was only at the Nascent Soul stage, so her words seemed to be an excuse, and they couldn't continue the interview. So they took the video from today and dispersed.
After the reporters left, the first thing Jiang Shu did upon returning to the Jiang family home was to give Jiang Shan a severe dressing-down:
"You're blind, fine, but you're also heartless. Hehe is your own daughter. Hehe has been living away from home for so many years, and you haven't cared about her or offered any compensation."
"Jiang He has already been compensated."
"You make me angry when you talk about this. Such a small amount of pills is called compensation? This is seventeen years!"
"Jiang Shan, where has your heart gone? The compensation you gave Hehe isn't even as much as Jiang Yaoyi's expenses in Shanyang for a year. Is this the compensation you call?"
“Mother, I’ve known Yaoyi since I was a child, so our relationship is different. Besides, do you know how much trouble Jiang He has caused our Jiang family this time?”
She not only crippled Yao Yi, but before that, she also crippled Liu Yang. The Liu family has been causing trouble for our Jiang family recently..."
"Heh, that good-for-nothing Liu Yang, so what if Hehe crippled him? Even if Hehe hadn't, Liu Yang would still have been unable to take over the family, and the current head of the family wouldn't have tolerated him. He'd be dead sooner or later."
Jiang Shu understood clearly that Liu Shenwei was from a collateral branch. He had reached the position of family head, and it was a Xuan-rank family. He couldn't possibly abdicate. Therefore, the next successor, Liu Yang, would definitely die. It just so happened that Liu Yang ran into Jiang He's side.
Faced with Jiang Shan, who remained oblivious to his mistakes, Jiang Shu was speechless for a moment. She sighed, no wonder the Jiang family had been declining in recent years.
"Now you're talking about feelings? No matter how close Jiang Yaoyi is to you, can she compare to the closeness of your top scholar's daughter?"
"Mother……"
Upon hearing the term "top scorer," Jiang Shan was completely speechless. He simply couldn't believe that Jiang He, who was clearly a good-for-nothing, could become the top scorer in the college entrance examination.
“You can raise Jiang Yaoyi however you want, I don’t want to interfere. As for Hehe, our Jiang family has to make up for what we’ve owed her over the past seventeen years. You can handle this yourself. It would be best if you could repair the father-daughter relationship.”
Regarding the Liu family's affairs, now that Hehe has become the top scorer in the high school entrance exam, Liu Shenwei isn't stupid; he knows how to make the right choice.
The Jiang family and the Liu family were actually enemies.
But these are special times, and they won't take action openly.
The Jiang family has only produced one Jiang He in a hundred years. Jiang Shu asked herself, "Don't you want the Jiang family to go further?"
Jiang Shu has great ambitions, and the Jiang family needs a younger generation to lead them. Jiang He is undoubtedly the best candidate.
In this way, the Jiang family is destined to be tied to Jiang He.
If the Liu family were to target Jiang He in the future, it would also mean targeting the Jiang family.
Therefore, for the sake of the Jiang family's future, while Jiang He is still young, he should protect her as much as possible.
She knew how to deal with the Liu family, and now the only important thing was to protect Jiang He as she grew up, until she was strong enough to stand up against the Liu family.
Jiang Shu's throat was dry from talking, so she took a sip of water to moisten it before continuing:
"In a few days I will hold a banquet for Hehe to celebrate her graduation. I will invite major media outlets. You know what to say and what not to say."
"Yes."
Jiang Shan lowered his head meekly.
Jiang Shu stroked the jade bracelet on her wrist and told all the Jiang family members currently in Beihuai City to return to the Jiang family.
Jiang Xiazhu had barely arrived at the Jiang family home when she saw her grandmother, whom she hadn't seen in over ten years since she was born.
Jiang Shu's intention in calling these people over was quite clear; she addressed them as "Hehe" very affectionately.
There were previously some dishonest members in the Jiang family who even harbored thoughts of harming their own siblings. Her words today were intended to give a good warning to the younger generation of the Jiang family present.
The Jiang family ancestral hall has been established for over two hundred years, but not a single member of the Jiang family has ever achieved the highest score in the college entrance examination.
It is the best in China, which speaks volumes about its value.
Jiang Shu absolutely cannot tolerate anyone in the Jiang family having ulterior motives and doing things that tarnish the Jiang family's reputation.
"Hehe becoming the top scholar in the imperial examination is a great joy for our Jiang family..."
Jiang Shuju's words were a warning to the younger generation of the Jiang family.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiazhu was consumed with jealousy.
Jiang Shu had never met her, but she knew that she was someone who had more power than the country itself.
Hearing that she had just emerged from seclusion and was already so protective of Jiang He, the scales in her heart gradually became unbalanced.
How did Jiang He become the number one in China? Jiang Yaoyi's scores were clearly higher than hers before.
Jiang Xiazhu was insanely jealous; she bit her lower lip with her upper teeth and glared at him.
Jiang Shu noticed Jiang Xiazhu's little actions at a glance, and her gaze deliberately swept over Jiang Xiazhu.
The graduation banquet was an event that would enhance the reputation of the Jiang family, and she would not allow anyone to ruin it.
