Chapter 9 The Secret in the Closet
The journey is not very far, after passing a small hill, we basically arrived at this familiar place.

After Gu Jinjiang arrived, the first thing he saw when he entered the room was the "old man" who was lying on the bed and looking out the window very calmly.

According to what Gu Zicheng said in the carriage just now, this seems to be his adoptive mother.

Looking at the person who was completely different from the memory, Gu Jinjiang couldn't tell the difference.I saw that her fingers had been bent into strange shapes, the skin of her whole body was tightly wrapped around the bones as if she had entered old age in advance, and her hair was gray, basically no different from the old people.

If Gu Zicheng hadn't rushed forward to ask after seeing it, he would really have thought that this was some old man living here temporarily.

When Gu Zicheng said this scene just now, Gu Jinjiang still felt weird, but after actually looking at it, he found that what he just described was not bad at all.

The strange thing is that when he left that year, Qian Zhaodi was still in the standard form of a woman in his impression, but why did he become an old man a few years later?
"Mom, Mom, I asked Gu Jinjiang to call here, how are you feeling now, are you okay?" Gu Zicheng tightly clenched that withered hand, tears gleaming in his eyes.

When hearing the three words Gu Jinjiang, Qian Zhaodi's already chaotic eyeballs turned to Gu Jinjiang who was standing there, and after a few glances, a few reddish tears flowed down the quilt Going up, his eyeballs widened suddenly, and his emotions suddenly became agitated for a moment.

She tightly grasped Gu Zicheng's hand, as if shaking it vigorously in Gu Jinjiang's direction, and pointed her other finger at Gu Jinjiang, waving vigorously in the air.

After a while, his face turned purple again, he turned his head aside and coughed vigorously, and suddenly a blood clot got stuck, which looked particularly abrupt on the concrete floor.

After coughing, Qian Zhaodi seemed to have exhausted all her strength, and leaned on the pillow weakly, but kept staring at Gu Jinjiang.

When Gu Jinjiang felt the hatred from her heart, he was afraid that Qian Zhaodi's condition would be aggravated if his family stayed there, so he made an excuse to go out first.He stood outside the door, feeling a little puzzled.

He knew that she was not his biological mother. Gu Chaosheng told him the truth when he was young, but he never told him any information about his biological parents. He just said that he would know when he should know.

He thought he was not much different from others, but today Qian Zhaodi's abnormal behavior made him curious about his life experience again.

"Sorry, did I scare you? Mother doesn't usually act like this. I don't know what happened to be so emotional today." Gu Zicheng also came out after cleaning up the mess in the room, interrupting Gu Jinjiang's meditation.

Isn't it usually like this?
Gu Jinjiang lowered his eyes, and his hair just covered the dark and unclear emotions in his eyes when he lowered his head.

When he was standing there watching just now, he noticed a detail. After seeing him, Qian Zhaodi instinctively looked towards a locked cabinet beside him, and then shifted back in an instant, and then made a after the move.

This abnormal behavior made him wonder if there was something about him in this cabinet.

What is it that makes her so precious, even at this moment, she is so tightly protected from him?
Also, why did his adoptive mother become like this.

Although this adoptive mother had never given him a good face since he could remember, Gu Jinjiang pursed his lips when he thought of the man who always looked sorry for him and taught him with earnest words from time to time.

What relationship does this man have with his parents?
He had an intuition that after these questions were revealed in the cabinet, the secret she wanted to protect, maybe all the answers would come to light.

"Jinjiang? What's wrong with you, why do you feel so bad..." Gu Zicheng asked worriedly when he saw Gu Jinjiang who was motionless beside him.

"Oh, I'm fine." Hearing the shout, Gu Jinjiang came back to his senses and returned to his usual expression, "Has she said anything to you these two days?"

Hearing this, Gu Zicheng was a little puzzled, but seeing Gu Jinjiang's serious expression, he still chose to tell the truth.He shook his head, "No, what's the matter."

No?Is this something that even her most precious son can guard against?

In his memory, it seems that every time there is something delicious or interesting, Qian Zhaodi will automatically ignore him and give it to Gu Zicheng with a smile on his face. Except when Gu Chaosheng is around, he can still get more or less Some.

Thinking about it this way, Gu Jinjiang was even more curious about this thing in his heart, and in order to prevent Gu Zicheng from being suspicious, he pretended to be indifferent, "It's okay, I just suspect that this is being framed by others, and I want to know some clues , but since there is no one, we can only focus on treating the disease first."

After finishing speaking, he took out the remaining ten taels of silver and gave it to Gu Zicheng, "You guys use it first, I will go ask for help tomorrow, if I need something, I will go back first."

After finishing speaking, he took advantage of the faint moonlight and got into the carriage at the door.

An Nuanyang yawned several times in a row, with tears in his eyes, sitting in front of the table with his head propped up, looking towards the door from time to time.

"Why don't you come back?"

Seeing that the night had completely covered the entire sky, An Nuanyang couldn't help complaining.

She stood up and looked around to see if there was anything she needed to do to pass the time.Anyway, I have to find something to do, I can't just sit here and waste time.

An Nuanyang sighed as he looked at the clean and tidy bowls and chopsticks around him, and at the tidy rooms around him.

She seemed to have forgotten that just to pass the time, she had already finished all the housework not long after Gu Jinjiang went out.

"Forget it, let's not wait for him, let's go get some food." An Nuanyang sighed and walked to the kitchen.

Looking at the lonely bottle of seasoning on the table, An Nuanyang looked at the white crystal, picked it up hesitantly and tasted it, and instantly felt a strange taste of salty and sweet exploded in his taste buds.

Could it be that the man confused the eyes with the shape of the candy and thought they were the same type?
With a bang, the ceramic jar containing the salt-sugar mixture fell to the ground, and the ceramic fragments were scattered all over the ground along with the white crystals.

An Nuanyang frowned, rubbing her swollen temples.

A memory belonging to the original body rushed into her mind when she touched the bottle.

[It's best not to let me see you have a next time. 】

A familiar cold and stern voice sounded in his ears. Looking at the gloomy face, Su Nuanyang snapped back to his senses, looked around at the familiar environment, and then turned his eyes to the mess on the ground, and suddenly fell silent.
