Chapter 100: Come to the Door

With both hands on the Steinway, Jiang Li took a deep breath and played with full concentration.

A few days ago, he substituted for Bai Mengchu at an ancient concert, and then there was the curtain call and the celebration banquet.

The continuous high-intensity playing made Jiang Li's old injury on his right forearm unable to bear it.

Not wanting to disappoint his father, he casually played a climax of his favorite "Glorious Waltz".

Before his hand trembled out of control, he finished a few rows ahead of time.

"Why is Xiao Li Li lazy today?"

Father Jiang used to practice with him a lot, and this is his favorite piano piece.

Jiang Li practiced this piece in front of him for no less than a hundred times, and he could easily find any slight problems.

"We are dragging you down."

Father Jiang didn't ask, but he also knew that his daughter paid a huge price to save him.

The lawyer fees for more than a year alone have cost a lot.

This time, the cost of hiring Lawyer Teng must not be low.

He mistakenly thought that Jiang Li was busy making money and working, so he neglected his favorite piano skills.

Jiang Li followed his words and avoided the issue of his injured arm. "I haven't practiced for a long time, so my hands are not used up. I haven't asked mom yet, why is this Steinway here if it wasn't confiscated?"

"Who around you can afford to buy back this Steinway with a million dollars? How could you not know?"

Jiang Li had thought about it, but she didn't dare to guess about that person.

Mother Jiang's answer still gave her a definite answer.

"What are you and your daughter talking about? What else happened in the past year that I was away that I don't know?"

Father Jiang was anxious to know what his daughter had experienced in the past year.

And she paid tens of thousands of dollars to the prison every month. Where did the money come from?

She wouldn't have sacrificed herself to save him...

"Xiao Li, tell me, what have you done in the past year? Where did you get so much money? If you don't tell the truth, I'll kick you out now!"

Father Jiang's tone was serious. He was honest and upright when he was in office.

He is still upright and fearless even if he goes in.

If his daughter sold her body to save him, he would go back to jail immediately!

Jiang Li knew his father's temperament, so he would not tell her about the deal between him and Lu Yan.

Instead, he deliberately beautified their relationship to comfort his father.

"When the Jiang family got into trouble, everyone pushed the wall down. I was also captured by the enemies that my father and brother had offended before. My eyes were injured and blinded at that time, but fortunately, my current husband saved me."

"How could our Xiao Li just find a man to marry?!"

Jiang's father turned his head and questioned Jiang's mother.

Jiang's mother turned her face away, not wanting to see her husband's partiality.

If Jiang Li didn't get married at that time, would she have to go out to work and wash dishes to support her blind?

Jiang Li pulled Jiang's father back, "My husband treats me very well, we are very loving, we met before the Jiang family got into trouble, he..."

She hesitated for a second, and in order to reduce Jiang's father's guilt, thinking that it was the Jiang family that implicated her, she told a small white lie.

"He had a crush on me before, and I like him too, so don't worry, Dad. We are together because we really like each other."

"He likes to care about you, why didn't he come with you today? Or didn't you tell him that I was released from prison today?"

That's right, it's not glorious to tell others that your father-in-law has been in prison.

If his son-in-law sees him like this, he might think his daughter is inferior, and it would be bad to bully Xiao Li in the future with an excuse to look down on her.

Thinking of this, Father Jiang was glad that he didn't come.

"Don't tell him about our family situation. The Jiang family won't do shameful things like sucking blood from their daughter and son-in-law. You live your life well, and don't come here if there's nothing to do in the future, so as not to make your son-in-law unhappy."

"Dad! Are you still going to drive me away?"

Jiang Li heard that something was wrong with Father Jiang's words, and pulled his sleeve and refused to give in.

"I am sensible and I am the daughter of the Jiang family. I will always be the daughter of the Jiang family. You can't drive me away."

"Why are you so confused? In the past, the Jiang family could protect you, but now they are just a burden."

"Then I am still blind. Without the support of my natal family, no matter how much my husband and I love each other, he will inevitably look down on me because I have no way out behind me."

"Don't say that. Our little Li Li is the most beautiful girl who deserves to be loved."

Father Jiang couldn't bear it after all. He couldn't say the words that urged Jiang Li to find her biological parents.

The family of three talked about the past enough. Mother Jiang went to cook. Jiang Li received a call and said goodbye to her parents and left in a hurry.

There were only father and mother Jiang in the room. Mother Jiang didn't want to cook anymore. The couple had a lot to say, but they looked at each other in silence. No one spoke first.

At this time, there was a knock on the door in the yard.

Father Jiang thought that Jiang Li had come back. The depression on his face was swept away. He ran to open the door with a smile.

"You still want to chase people to find your biological parents. If you really find them, you, Jiang, will cry."

"Don't blame me for turning against you if you dare to expose my past in front of my daughter."

Father Jiang warned Mother Jiang and opened the gate.

He was interrupted by a strange face outside when he opened his mouth to call Jiang Li.

Father Jiang had just been released from prison and his mentality had not changed yet. He didn't want to see anyone, especially strangers.

The smile on his face because of his daughter's return disappeared in an instant, and he turned around and walked into the house.

Mother Jiang didn't hear the father and daughter's movements. She came out and saw two unfamiliar faces, one old and one young, standing at the gate of the courtyard. She felt nervous and asked cautiously, "What's the matter, you two?"

"Hello, are you new here? Our house is on the roadside in front. The lotus pond in the middle is our home. This is Teacher Gu. We just heard a piano playing and wanted to come over to see it. Excuse me, who is playing it? Can our teacher Gu meet him?"

"Do you think you are the piano master Gucci? You can see my daughter whenever you want?"

Father Jiang has been in prison for a long time. Except for the kind image of an old father when facing Jiang Li, he now looks like a weird old man whose treasure is being peeped at, with sharp reactions.

Qingsong's attitude can be said to be extremely polite.

Unexpectedly, he still provoked the host's rejection.

He looked at Gu Lao beside him and communicated with his eyes: How about forget it?

Gu Lao was sure that he had heard it correctly.

In this village, he heard the same "Glorious Waltz" played by Bai Mengchu at the concert, even the technique and three-second transitions were exactly the same.

He didn't believe there were such coincidences in the world.

Today, he must meet the person who played this piece!

"I am Gucci. I wonder how you can let me meet the person who played that piece?"

Father Jiang, who was originally planning to go back to the house, heard Gucci's name and suddenly braked and turned back quickly.

His questioning eyes wandered up and down Gu Lao, and he turned his head to ask his wife, "Why is he so much older than the poster on Guaibao's wall?"
