Chapter 2675 : Twins
“Grandma!”
“Alright, that’s it.” Old Madam Qiao clearly didn’t want to interfere in this matter.
Qiao Dongliang had no choice but to call Qiao Weiyang. “Sister, let’s go to
Grandpa’s sanatorium to take a look and pack his belongings.”
“I was planning on going over too. Come with me.”
After the two of them met, they went to the sanatorium together.
A few caregivers were tidying up the things on the floor. The floor was a mess. The room where Old Master Qiao had stayed was all messy now.
Seeing them appear, the caregivers stood up and greeted, “Miss Qiao, Mr. Qiao.” “Have they been here?” Qiao Weiyang asked.
“Madam Qiao and Miss Qiao Jierou were here,” a caregiver said in a low voice.
Qiao Weiyang reached out and picked up a photo album. She opened it and saw Grandpa’s photo.
The chess pieces on the ground were from another set of chess that Grandpa had treasured.
Many things were scattered here. These were clearly the things that Grandpa cherished, but they turned a blind eye to them.
It was just because these things were not worth anything.
Those expensive calligraphy paintings, jewelry, and jade rings had long been taken away, leaving behind a mess.
“You guys can go out. We’ll clean up,” Qiao Weiyang said.
After the caregivers left, she and Qiao Dongliang bent down to clean up the mess.
The two of them sorted out the large pile of things and got a caregiver to help send them to the car.
For the last time, Qiao Weiyang stood at the door of this room. She recalled that every time she came here in the past, her grandfather would welcome her with a smile.
Qiao Dongliang stood with her.
After a long time, the two of them turned around and walked out. They would not come here again.
“And the room at home…” Qiao Dongliang reminded her softly.
“Okay, let’s go back and pack together,” Qiao Weiyang said. “When the time comes, we’ll split these things and keep them separately.”
Qiao Weiyang could tell that the ignorant Huang Shumin and her daughter had missed out on a lot of valuable things.
He waved his hand. “Sister, you can keep them. I’m staying on campus now, so it’s not convenient for me to have so many items. Also, in the future, my relationship with the Qiao family… It’s not appropriate for me to continue taking Grandpa’s things. Please keep them.”
Qiao Weiyang did not refuse.
The two of them arrived at the Qiao family’s home together. Huang Shumin and her daughter had already finished packing and were drinking tea with Old Madam Qiao.
Seeing Qiao Weiyang, Huang Shumin clearly did not expect her to come over.
Old Madam Qiao looked at Qiao Dongliang. “Dongliang, why aren’t you studying? Why are you running around with Qiao Weiyang? Don’t you understand the saying ‘A man is known by the company he keeps?”‘
“I understand. That’s why I only get close to people with good character,” he retorted.
“You child!”
“Sister and I will pack up Grandpa’s belongings. Is that okay? They’re all the things you don’t want.”
Huang Shumin said, “How could there be things we don’t want? I’ve already asked the servants to clean up the place. But if you really want to see the things, you can go up and take a look.”
Qiao Jierou giggled. There was nothing valuable upstairs as she had already picked everything up.
She was smiling proudly when Qiao Weiyang’s cold gaze pierced at her.
Qiao Jierou had no choice but to stop smiling.
Qiao Weiyang said calmly, “Dongliang and I will go up and clean up now. Do you want to arrange for someone to go up and keep an eye on things?”
Huang Shumin remembered that she had rummaged through the things countless times, so logically speaking, there was nothing good left. She said, “As long as you don’t rummage through the other rooms, we don’t have to arrange for anyone to watch over you.”
“I’m not like some people who have the habit of rummaging through other people’s rooms,” Qiao Weiyang retorted.
“What are you talking about?” Huang Shumin was angry.
“The person who’s talking back.”
Huang Shumin was speechless.
“Alright, go pack up if you want to. Don’t cause trouble here?” Old Madam Qiao couldn’t stand it anymore.
Only then did Qiao Weiyang and Qiao Dongliang go up to clean up.
The room here was even messier than the room in the sanatorium.
Qiao Weiyang was no longer sad. What hope could she have for this family?
After packing up their grandfather’s things, Qiao Dongliang would return to the Xu family in the future. The Qiao family would have nothing to do with him anymore.
This should be the last time he was here.
Soon, Qiao Weiyang and Qiao Dongliang packed several boxes and brought them down.
Huang Shumin stuck her head over to see if there was anything valuable. She was afraid that they would take something valuable that had slipped through the net.
She did not look like a madam at all.
Qiao Weiyang said calmly, “I’ve already arranged for a lawyer to come over.
These things, as well as the things that Dongliang and I packed up in the sanatorium, will be recorded clearly under their witness. I’ll only take them away after you sign the paperwork. Old Madam Qiao, can I keep Grandpa’s things?”
When Old Madam Qiao thought about how those things were unimportant and were an eyesore at home, she might as well let Qiao Weiyang take them away.
She said, “Alright, you can take them back as mementoes.”
“Okay.” Not long after Qiao Weiyang made the call, the lawyer and the notary arrived.
In front of everyone, they placed all the things that Qiao Weiyang had collected from the sanatorium and the room upstairs.
“There’s a pair of incense burners. Old Madam, do you want them?” the lawyer and the notary asked.
“No, no.” Old Madam Qiao refused. The items were dark in color and did not look like they would be of any good.
“Five photo albums.”
Qiao Jierou said in a low voice, “I have Grandpa’s photo in my phone. I’ll give them to Sister.”
“The letters Old Master has written.”
“Give them to Qiao Weiyang.” Old Madam Qiao made the decision.
“Clay pots, small vases, commonly used back massagers, wooden fish, wooden pendants, wooden bracelets, incense frames, and so on…”
Every time they read something, Huang Shumin and Qiao Jierou expressed their disdain. These things were either worthless or very ugly. If they had wanted these things, they wouldn’t be laid out here.
Anyway, after listing out many things, none were items that the mother and daughter wanted.
The notary took photos, printed them, bound them, and placed them together. In the end, they asked Matriarch Qiao to sign the paperwork. These things belonged to Qiao Weiyang now.
It was no wonder that Qiao Weiyang insisted on going through so much trouble. There were too many times when the Qiao family went back on their word. Every time, they would think of ways to find an excuse to target Qiao Weiyang.
Qiao Weiyang would not touch these relics after taking them back. She would find a place to keep them well, so she naturally had nothing to worry about. Old Madam Qiao looked at everything, then at Qiao Weiyang. She picked up her pen and signed her name..
