Chapter 521: Chapter 522 A Strange Woman (For Quiet Heart +2)

What kind of effects would those Talisman Diagrams have?

The moment Chiang Xiao thought about it, she felt her heart ignite with excitement.

This was not just about finding a treasure; she felt like she had stumbled upon an endless stream of treasures.

She could hardly wait to learn other diagrams.

Chiang Xiao suppressed her excitement and urgency, quickly poured a cup of water for Liu Pei, and said, "Aunt, you’ve shed so many tears, you better rehydrate before you get dehydrated."

Liu Pei couldn’t help but laugh at her remark, took the cup of water, and tapped her on the forehead, "Nonsense, when did your aunt cry that much?"

Dehydrated, really? Was that an exaggeration?

"How can it not be? You almost flooded the house, if it weren’t for me, the Talisman Defender Little Princess."

Seeing her mother’s mood improving, Ge Xiaotong couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief. Hearing Chiang Xiao teasing her mother with little respect made her laugh as well.

With their laughter, the tense atmosphere finally eased.

Ge Liutao wiped her sweat too.

It was about her mother, and she didn’t quite know what to say. When Liu Pei was accusing Grandma Ge, she also felt embarrassed.

Fortunately, there was Chiang Xiao.

Only then did Chiang Xiao ask what exactly had happened that day.

After they began to laugh, Ge Dejun’s heavy heart also lightened. Now, seeing Chiang Xiao inquire again, he knew it was impossible to keep it hidden, although it might embarrass his mother.

After both he and Liu Pei explained the whole incident, Chiang Xiao and the others understood what kind of grievances they had suffered after returning to the Ge Family home that afternoon.

During the first period after they moved to Osmanthus Alley, Ge Dejun would still go back to stay at the Ge Family home at night, claiming he was worried that Grandma Ge might get sick from agitation.

Later, it may have been that Ge Dejun convinced Liu Pei, and she often accompanied him back there.

But each time they returned, they seemed a bit out of spirits, and Chiang Xiao guessed that Grandma Ge must have not said anything nice to them.

Yet, they endured it all the same.

This time when they went back, they discovered that their room had been taken by someone! And that person was not a relative—it could be said to be a complete stranger!

"My grandma let a complete stranger stay in our home?" Ge Xiaotong was incredulous when she heard it.

"To your grandma, that’s not a stranger," Ge Dejun explained. "Actually, it’s a sister she met while working elsewhere. No one knows what happened, but despite her age, she left her hometown to come to Peace Town, even coming to find your grandma."

"So, the problem is with that woman?" Chiang Xiao asked.

Ge Dejun’s face turned red again; he found the whole situation too absurd and, as a man, he didn’t know how to describe what that person did, so he looked to Liu Pei.

By now, Liu Pei had completely lost the uncontrollable excitement she previously had. However, when mentioning this issue, she felt as disgusted as if she had eaten something revolting.

"I’ll tell it. That woman is the problem. She is eight or nine years younger than Xiao Tong’s grandma."

Ge Dejun was in his early forties and Grandma Ge was just over sixty, so that would make the woman about fifty.

"The first time I saw her, she seemed quite neatly dressed, and even at her age, her face was still smooth," Liu Pei said, and subconsciously touched her own face, feeling that the wrinkles seemed to have reduced somewhat recently. "She wore brightly colored clothes and claimed she would pay rent, not wanting to take advantage for free. However, whether Xiao Tong’s grandma actually took the rent from her wasn’t disclosed. Anyway, she ended up sleeping in Xiao Tong’s old room."
