Chapter 78 There is no retreat
After dinner, Jiang Chu was still a little worried about Jiang Tao, so he wanted to visit her.

These days, she is busy with business affairs, and indeed she has neglected them a little bit. No matter what the situation is, it is best to pay more attention to it.

"The hot water is ready," Ji Yao came in with his sleeves rolled up, showing his strong arms.

However, Jiang Chu casually rolled up her hair and said, "You wash it first, I'll go and see Jiang Tao."

Ji Yao nodded: "Alright."

Then he paused, and then asked, "Where did Jiang Tao go this afternoon?"

Jiang Chudao: "She said she was feeling bored, so she went to the field ridge outside, what's the matter?"

Ji Yao pursed his lips, and just said: "It has been raining recently, and the fields around the fields are probably muddy..."

As soon as Ji Yao said this, Jiang Chu was slightly taken aback, as if he had already thought of something.

Jiang Tao came back today, her shoes were clean and not wet, did she lie?
Ji Yao took her hand and said softly: "She is your sister, and I won't deliberately suspect her, but I hope you will remain vigilant in everything."

Ji Yao knows Jiang Chu well. Although she seems heartless, she is the most emotional, and she is easy to act emotionally towards the people she cares about. Just like these details today, Ji Yao can see at a glance, Jiang Chu also It should have been obvious at a glance, but she didn't, because Jiang Tao was her younger sister, so she trusted her too much.

Jiang Chu paused, and then responded softly: "I know."

It's just that there was a sudden buzz in her mind. Jiang Tao didn't go to the field, so where did she go this afternoon?Why did she lie to them?
Jiang Chu couldn't help sighing inwardly, the little girl has grown up, and she has more thoughts, and she might not be able to control her.

Jiang Chu walked outside Jiang Tao's room door, and gently knocked on the door: "Xiao Tao?"

Jiang Tao then came to open the door, she seemed to be looking better now, at least not as pale as when she came back earlier, but there still seemed to be a secret hidden in her eyes, dodging.

"Sister, why are you here?" Jiang Tao let Jiang Chu into the room.

Jiang Chu entered the room, and stretched out his hand to touch her forehead: "I heard from Xiaozhen that you don't seem to be feeling well, and you still refuse to see the doctor. I will take a day to take you to see the doctor tomorrow."

Jiang Tao was startled, then nodded subconsciously: "Okay..."

Jiang Chu said with a smile: "Next time, you are not allowed to run out like this for a long time without making a sound. You know that Xiaozhen will be in a hurry today. I am afraid that something will happen to you again. No matter what, you have to think about me and Xiaozhen. , If you are unhappy, tell your sister, she will help you."

Jiang Tao is sore, you can't help me.

But still nodded on the face: "I know."

Jiang Chu held her hand tightly: "In this world, if you don't even want to trust Xiaozhen and me, then no one can trust you anymore. We have no parents, only the three of us depend on each other. My sister hopes you can see it." clear."

Jiang Tao froze, and seemed unable to react after staying there for a long time.

"You have a rest, I will take you to the town to see a doctor tomorrow." Jiang Chu patted her shoulder lightly, then got up and left.

Jiang Tao froze there, her mind was in a mess, she had no parents, her elder sister was like her mother, Jiang Chu should have been her closest person and the only person she could rely on, but now, why has she become the most guarded person? people?
Suddenly, Ren Jiaoyuan's sharp voice sounded in her ears: "Guess, if she knows that you dare to covet her husband, how will she deal with you given her vengeful nature?"

Jiang Tao felt herself trembling all over, her face turned pale, and she murmured: "I have no retreat, there is no retreat."

-

The next day, Jiang Chu didn't follow Ji Yao to drive, but took Jiang Tao to the town.

In fact, she probably knew that Jiang Tao was fine, but she just wanted to take some time to be with her, and let her tell the truth to herself, so that she could understand what was wrong with her.

"Look, how about this hairpin?" Jiang Chu walked to a jewelry shop, picked up a beautiful peony hairpin and compared it to Jiang Tao's head.

Jiang Tao said with some embarrassment: "This peony is beautiful in color, suitable for my sister with fair skin, I don't look good wearing it."

But Jiang Chu said: "How could it be? Our Xiaotao looks good, besides, I have become relatives, wearing such a tender color, people still think I am not serious, look, are you wearing it? nice?"

Jiang Chu had already pinned it on her hair, and Jiang Tao compared it to the mirror, the hairpin was really pretty.

No girl can resist the charm of this beautiful jewelry.

Jiang Chu smiled and said to the clerk in the shop, "How much is this hairpin?"

"This is a hairpin made of light gauze. It is more delicate than ordinary hairpins. It costs ten cents each." The young man laughed.

Jiang Chu paid the money readily: "This is what I need."

Jiang Tao touched the hairpin on her head, and rarely smiled: "This hairpin is so beautiful."

Jiang Chu smiled and said: "If you like it, my sister will buy you a bunch in the future and put it at home. Wear whichever you like."

"No need..." Jiang Tao waved her hands again and again.

Jiang Chu said, "You are worthy of these."

Jiang Tao was taken aback for a moment, and then Jiang Chu said seriously, "I want you to understand that you are no worse than anyone else, including Ren Jiaoyuan."

Hearing the words Ren Jiaoyuan, Jiang Tao's face turned pale instantly.

Jiang Chuxiu frowned slightly, sure enough, she guessed right, what Jiang Tao had hidden in her heart had something to do with Ren Jiaoyuan.

"Let's find a place to eat later, are you hungry? There is a new restaurant in this town, and the business is doing well. I can smell the fragrance from far away. I haven't eaten yet." Jiang Chu said Anxious, intend to step by step.

Jiang Tao's complexion was a little bad, but she still said stiffly: "Since we want to eat, I heard that Chunxinzhai is not bad."

Jiang Chu didn't care: "Okay, then go there."

Chunxinzhai is a relatively famous restaurant in the small town, but Jiang Chu's current financial resources are completely affordable. As long as Jiang Tao is happy, it's not a big deal to take her to go rich.

"Invite the two guest officials!" The young man was very attentive and invited them directly to the private room on the second floor. The guests who come to Chunxinzhai for dinner are very particular, especially the female guests. If you want to sit outside to show your face, you must be given a private room.

Jiang Chu took Jiang Tao directly to the second floor and entered an elegant private room, and the little guy brought up the menu: "I wonder what the two guests want to eat?"

Jiang Chu said directly: "Just serve a few of your restaurant's signature dishes."

"Hey! Good!"
