Chapter 39 39. Lightning Protection Bead Ling Jiajia Calls
After the banquet, Jinjiu moved back to his own home. Before leaving, Qin Lianyun almost cried. In the end, Jinjiu coaxed her into silence with the three-layer exquisite beads that he had carved by himself.
Jinjiu moved out, and two days later, Jinci also moved out. Seeing the house become empty again, the couple could only sigh helplessly.
There is no way. When children grow up, they have to be let go to fly on their own. They can be a safe haven for children, but they cannot become a cage to trap them.
Therefore, Jinjiu, who has become a free bird, can be said to have been completely wild recently. He sets up a stall randomly every day and eats melons until he is full. Even the Heavenly Dao feels that he can no longer control this guy.
The reason is very simple. After making sure that lightning would not cause any harm to Jin Ci, Jin Jiu made two lightning beads... to be precise, a pair of lightning beads, one of which is with her and the other is on Jin Ci.
With the lightning-proof bead, even the strongest lightning could not harm Jin Jiu, so her life became more and more carefree day by day.
Fortunately, she still remembered her job, so when she received Ling Jiajia's call, she immediately stopped and took her things to the carving studio.
"You're finally here!" Ling Jiajia was inexplicably surprised when she saw Jinjiu.
Although she didn't know why she would contact a stranger who she had only met once and whose behavior was very strange at such a critical moment.
But when she fell into despair, she took out her cell phone and called Jinjiu. This was simply an inexplicable subconscious reaction.
"What happened to your grandpa?" Jin Jiu was not vague and went straight to the point.
"My grandpa... did you know that something happened to my grandpa?" Ling Jiajia had actually inquired about it before Jin Jiu came. Jin Jiu seemed to be a master.
Although she didn't think that such a young girl would be a powerful person, but based on the fact that she guessed that something would happen to her grandfather, Ling Jiajia inexplicably felt that Jinjiu should be able to solve her grandfather's strange illness.
"I asked you to keep an eye on your grandpa and call me if anything happened. Since you called me, doesn't that mean something happened to your grandpa?"
Ling Jiajia choked, but she also knew that her grandfather's condition was urgent, so she didn't continue talking nonsense.
"Come and see for yourself." Ling Jiajia took Jinjiu upstairs, and then saw a person lying on the bed, but a pair of hands were strangely suspended in the air, the arms shook from time to time, and the fingers moved more flexibly.
Even though Ling Jiajia had seen this scene countless times, she still felt terrified every time she saw it, and at the same time, she felt very worried and desperate.
"You didn't take him to the hospital?"
Although Jin Jiu knew that there would be no help even if she was sent to the hospital, based on her understanding of the people in this world over time, if something happened to someone at home, no matter what the problem was, they would definitely be sent to the hospital first.
It was indeed a bit strange that Ling Jiajia didn't send him to the hospital but just called him over.
"I also want to take grandpa to the hospital." Ling Jiajia smiled bitterly, "but grandpa wouldn't let me get close. I wanted to ask other people for help, but grandpa wouldn't let me."
It's not that she couldn't go against her grandfather's wishes, but she didn't know why she felt that her grandfather was very strange, a feeling that she couldn't describe at all.
Until the day before yesterday, she called someone to send grandpa to the hospital the next day. As a result, when she woke up, she saw a piece of paper at the bedside. There were five words written on the paper: "Don't go to the hospital". The handwriting was in grandpa's handwriting.
Ling Jiajia's grandfather had practiced calligraphy, and Ling Jiajia had learned it from him, so she was very familiar with it. She was afraid, not because of her grandfather's strange behavior, but because she was afraid that if she didn't do what was written on the paper, something would happen to her grandfather.
"So that's how it is." Jinjiu understood the situation and began to check on the old man.
Just as Jinjiu was checking, there was suddenly a noisy noise downstairs. Ling Jiajia's face changed. She wanted to say something, but seeing Jinjiu's serious expression, she didn't dare to disturb him and had to go downstairs alone.
"Brother Fan, Brother Chen! What are you two doing!?"
As soon as Ling Jiajia went downstairs, she saw two young men glaring at each other, and around them, tables, chairs and benches were scattered all over the floor. She was anxious and angry, but afraid of affecting the people upstairs, so she could only suppress her anger and find a way to stop the two men from continuing to quarrel.
"Jia Jia, don't meddle in our affairs." Fan Lu glared at the person in front of him with an angry face, with murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
He considered himself the eldest disciple of Ling Jiajia's grandfather and should be in charge of all matters concerning his master, including the management of his inheritance.
Chen Jia in front of me came several years later than me. What qualifications does he have to compete with me?
"It's true that I have no right to interfere in your affairs, but this is not the place for you to make noise. My grandpa is still lying in bed, and you are making noise here and disturbing him. What are you thinking?" Ling Jiajia said sternly to the two people.
Don't think that she doesn't know that the reason these two people appeared here was entirely for the things left by grandpa. They didn't appear here because they were worried about grandpa!
It was the first time for these two people to see Ling Jiajia so angry, and they were speechless for a moment.
No matter how much they made a fuss, they did not dare to do so in front of Ling Jiajia. After all, she was the granddaughter of her master.
Although the master said that Ling Jiajia had no talent for carving, all the carving-related industries under his control would be handed over to his apprentice, and only real estate and funds would be left to his granddaughter.
But they had no doubt that if they displeased Ling Jiajia, they would get nothing!
"Jia Jia, don't be angry. It's all our fault. I want to go upstairs to see Master." Chen Jia reacted quickly and immediately showed his loyalty with a smile.
He just had a frivolous look on his face, and didn't seem to be worried about Old Man Ling at all. In his heart, he even wished that the old man would die sooner so that they could get what he had.
"No! You can't go up!" Ling Jiajia refused decisively.
Jinjiu is still upstairs now. No matter whether she has the ability or not, Ling Jiajia will never let these two people disturb her grandfather's rest. These two people obviously have bad intentions!
However, although Fan Lu had just quarreled with Chen Jia, they now stood on the united front.
Because they all wanted to know about Grandpa Ling's condition as soon as possible, and even in their hearts they had the same despicable thought of hoping that the old man would get into trouble sooner.
"Jia Jia, we all know that you are worried about Master. We are the same as you, so I must go upstairs to see Master, only then can I feel at ease." Fan Lu was more direct. While he was talking, he wanted to go upstairs.
Ling Jiajia blocked their way and didn't let them move forward at all.
