Chapter 291: Chapter 291: Grown Children Are Beyond a Mother’s Control

The next day.

It hadn’t even dawned yet when Lu Jing received a call from her own mother.

"Hello, Mom?"

"Girl, did you send Jiang Qiu to the Police Station?"

Huh?

She had been half-asleep, but now she was wide awake:

"Did Brother tell you?" she asked.

However, Lu’s mother said:

"Who needs your brother to say anything, it’s common knowledge now."

Oh?

It’s common knowledge?

The news sure spread fast!

No need to think about it, it must have been Jiang Qiu who let the news out himself.

His purpose, naturally, was to go to the Jiang Family and accuse her!

After all, Jiang Qiu was the adopted daughter who Old Sir Jiang had doted on for most of his life, while she was nothing more than an outsider without any legal ties.

Lu’s mother called so early in the morning exactly because she was worried about this.

But Lu Jing didn’t care much:

"Mom, it’s okay, she brought it upon herself, it was self-defense."

No matter what, at that time, Jiang Qiu was indeed infringing on her personal liberty!

"But, over at the Jiang Family...."

Speak of the devil, and he shall appear; Jiang’s mother was already calling her.

Lu Jing paused:

"Mom, Aunt Su is calling, I’ll hang up first, and we’ll talk later."

Before Lu’s mother had a chance to say anything, the phone was already beeping as it disconnected.

At this moment, Lu Jing took Jiang’s mother’s call:

"Aunt Su?"

On the phone, Jiang’s mother hurriedly responded:

"Eh, is Jingjing up so early?" she asked.

Early?

It wasn’t that early, almost six o’clock.

Cough.

"I just woke up. Is there something you called so early for, Aunt Su?"

Actually, everyone was well aware of the situation.

Jiang’s mother laughed:

"I heard you got Jiang Qiu taken to the Police Station, eh? Good job, nicely done!"

Hiss?

"Aunt Su...."

On the phone, Jiang’s mother’s tone was very light and cheerful:

"Don’t worry, she should learn a lesson from this. I’m still around at home, she won’t get away with her tricks!"

With these words from Jiang’s mother, Lu Jing indeed felt much more at ease.

"Aunt Su, what about Grandpa..."

"Old Sir Jiang? Don’t worry, it’s all good."

Old Sir Jiang’s resilience was much stronger than many young people’s, and since he didn’t lose an arm or break a leg, he wouldn’t mind.

Of course, what was most important was that Jiang Qiu probably hadn’t realized that the Old Sir Jiang of now was no longer the Old Sir Jiang of the past.

Towards Jiang Qiu, Old Sir Jiang did have some reservations.

It was just that, after all the years of indulgence, it wasn’t easy to say much.

"Let’s drop it, has Aye come back yet?"

Her own son, how could she not worry?

Not a single message for days and nights, Jiang’s mother was thinking about going over there herself.

Lu Jing also stunned for a moment, then replied:

"He hasn’t, but he did call yesterday to check in."

"Aye called you?"

Such an enviable tone.

After Lu Jing heard that, she felt quite embarrassed:

"Yeah, just for less than a minute."

Luckily Jiang’s mother wasn’t a petty person and didn’t take it to heart:

"As long as he is safe, that’s what matters. We can’t hope for more.

Jingjing, in the future, you’ll have to take more care of everything!"

Her son had grown up, beyond her control.

Luckily, he still had a wife to take care of him.

Over the years, Jiang’s mother had been driven almost to the brink of collapse by her eldest son.

Which injury didn’t require him to lie in the hospital for several days?

As a mother, how could she not feel pain?

That was a piece of her own flesh and blood!

The prospective mother-in-law and daughter-in-law both fell silent, clearly, both of them were thinking the same thing at that moment, both worried about the same person.

After a good while, Lu Jing finally spoke up:

"Aunt Su, there won’t be any problems, Jiang Ye should be able to come back soon."
