Chapter 764: Chapter 764: Song Taishan’s Phone Call

Jiangli heard Xia Xin’s words and let out a soft chuckle.

Xia Xin immediately turned bright red, grasping the edge of his clothes, "Ancestor, did I say something wrong?"

Jiangli shook his head, "No, I was just laughing at your wit. You’ve finally had a moment of cleverness."

Xia Xin widened his eyes, excitedly saying, "So, what I remembered was right? Then, Ancestor, why didn’t you mention anything about this when you were at the Jiang Family? I thought I had remembered it wrong."

"You didn’t remember it wrong." Jiangli’s expression faded slightly, "But to bring it up again is meaningless."

Xia Xin didn’t understand, "Why is it meaningless?"

Jiangli rolled down the car window, a breeze blowing in, "Because, the patriarch of the Jiang Family gave up on pursuing it."

Xia Xin was stunned, recalling the matter of Jiangli calling out the old Jiang patriarch.

Indeed, the old patriarch had never mentioned what had happened that day.

Does that mean the old patriarch covered for Jiang Yongnian?

Scratching his head, Xia Xin couldn’t help asking, "Ancestor, then what exactly happened?"

Jiangli said, "From the karma on Jiang Yongnian’s body, it’s clear it wasn’t just a sudden occurrence; he must have foreseen that the old patriarch would fall ill, so he prepared the coffin in advance, wanting to bury him sooner."

Xia Xin frowned, "How would he know when the old patriarch would fall ill?"

"A person with a bad heart, if you purposefully go and quarrel with him, specifically choosing hurtful words, do you think he will have a heart attack?" Jiangli countered.

Xia Xin suddenly realized, "Ancestor, are you suggesting that Jiang Yongnian deliberately provoked the old patriarch, waited for him to fall ill, and then purposely didn’t give him his medicine?"

Jiangli nodded, "That’s roughly the idea, though it’s just speculation."

After thinking it over carefully, Xia Xin was still somewhat puzzled, "If that’s the case, wouldn’t it be better for him to cremate the body directly? Oh, that’s not right... Someone like the old Mrs. Jiang who adheres to old customs probably would insist on burial. If Jiang Yongnian insisted on cremation, it would raise suspicions, is that what you mean?"

Jiangli nodded, "You’re finally getting smarter."

Xia Xin chuckled, "After staying with you for so long, I must learn to be smarter."

Jiangli smiled faintly, "From what we see now, it’s highly likely that Jiang Yongnian deliberately enraged the old patriarch to cause his illness. So, he prepared the coffin in advance, just waiting for the old patriarch to pass away to arrange for the funeral. Unfortunately, it seems that once the old patriarch died, he haunted him. Jiang Yongnian, being timid, feared that the old patriarch would seek revenge, so he went to find Master Wu."

"Master Wu is not a real master at all. He went to the wrong person and couldn’t help him at all." Xia Xin didn’t even think before he started criticizing Master Wu.

Jiangli smiled indifferently, "Regardless, since the old patriarch himself has let it go, dropped his obsession, and willingly entered the cycle of reincarnation, let’s not involve ourselves in this matter anymore."

Xia Xin nodded, about to speak when his cell phone rang.

He took out his phone and saw it was a call from Song Taishan, muttering, "Why is Captain Song calling me at this time? Could there be some issue with Fan Ran’s case?"

Jiangli’s brow knitted slightly, "Answer it."

Xia Xin responded affirmatively and answered the phone, "Hello, Captain Song, what can I do for you?"

Song Taishan, hearing Xia Xin’s voice, asked, "Is the Abbot there?"

Xia Xin replied, "Yes, the Abbot is with me. Do you need something, Captain Song?"

Song Taishan said, "It’s nothing much. Didn’t the Abbot tell me before to check where Fan Ran’s relatives were?"
