Red apricots make spring

Chapter 203 Looking for Clues
The room was silent.

Seeing Zhao An like this, everyone felt very uncomfortable, especially Yun Dan, who sympathized with Zhao An even more.He is also a family servant, and he lives a much more dignified life than Zhao An. Although on the surface, he and Lu Ce have a master-servant relationship, but inwardly, he feels that Lu Ce treats him like a brother, and not only taught him a lot , and completely trust him, you can rest assured that he will intervene in everything, and you will never scold him on weekdays, so that he can live with more dignity than most people in this world.

Xiaohuan pondered for a while and asked, "Brother Zhao An, don't you know where sister Xiaoyan was sold?"

Zhao An shook his head, an uncontrollable sob escaped from his throat.

Ruan Ruan wanted to help Zhao An, but if there were no clues in the vast crowd, where could she go to find such a betrayed person?She asked: "There must be some clues, right? Or the surname of the family that bought her, or the name of the child, as long as you can remember, you can tell them all, so we can help you find them."

Mother Wen felt a little uncomfortable when she heard what she said. After all, it is one thing to sympathize with Zhao An, but another to work hard to help him. Those who can afford to buy maids and servants have some background It will be even more troublesome if offended, so he interjected worriedly: "This... I'm afraid it's hard to find, right? Even if I find it, they may not be willing to resell it..."

"Let's find it first!" Rourou glanced at Mother Wen, and then said to Zhao An, "Think carefully."

Zhao An wiped away tears with his sleeve, lowered his head and thought for a while before saying, "I don't know the name of the family who bought her, but I heard people call that person Fugui."

Rourou felt several crows quacking and flying past her eyes one after another.

She doesn't think this name is too vulgar or ugly. On the contrary, this name actually entrusts many people's lifelong dreams, and it means that they want to wish blessings. However, there are too many people in this world who want to become rich and noble. As soon as I stood there, I yelled "Fugui" at the top of my lungs, and at least a dozen people turned their heads and responded, "Who called me!"

Aunt Liu smiled wryly, "What's his last name?"

Zhao An shook his head and said, "I don't know."

It's hard to find!Wen Rou was contemplating, when Lu Ce who had been silent all this time suddenly asked, "In which city was your wife sold?"

"Master Hui, in Shangyang City." Zhao An still remembered this.

"Do you still remember what's so special about that boy's appearance?" Lu Ce continued to ask.

"He—" Zhao An pondered, "There is a mole above the eyebrow, and when he smiles... there is a dimple on the left side of his face..."

Lu Ce nodded, didn't ask any more questions, stood up and said, "It's getting late, it's time to eat."

Wen Rou heard him ask these two sentences, and she understood a little bit in her heart. She felt that she was stupid and couldn't get to the point even if she asked a question. It is not as good as Lu Ce, whose thinking is simple and clear, and it is very convenient to find someone back, so she couldn't help secretly esteem.

"Master..." Zhao An didn't know whether Lu Ce had the intention of buying Xiaoyan back, and he felt uneasy, and just wanted to ask for a definite answer.

Seeing him like this, Yun Dan comforted him and said: "Don't worry, the Lord has already agreed, you can just wait for the news at ease."

"Congratulations, Brother Zhao An." Xiaohuan knew Lu Ce's ability, and quickly congratulated him, even Liu Sister said with a smile: "Don't worry, Young Master Lu will surely find you if he allows you."

Zhao An was overjoyed when he heard the words, his swollen eyes narrowed in laughter, and he quickly prostrated himself on the ground, wanting to kowtow to Lu Ce to thank him.At first, he saw Lu Ce's expression was cold, and he thought he was an extremely difficult master, but he didn't expect him to treat others so generously, so he couldn't help but secretly rejoiced.

"You don't need to kneel all the time." Lu Ce said flatly, "From now on, do your job well and do your best. It's much better than kowtowing a hundred times."

"Yes! You must remember the teachings of the master." Zhao An said in his mouth, and finally kowtowed three times before standing up.

Seeing this situation, Rou Rou was happy in her heart, and said with a smile, "I'm going to cook!" Then she turned to Mother Wen and said, "Mother, can you help me?"

"Okay!" Mother Wen deserved to be straightforward, and really wanted to quietly ask her daughter some gossip while cooking.After listening for a long time, she somewhat understood the origin of Zhao An's identity, but she always wanted to ask more details to satisfy her curiosity.

"Old lady, wait for me." Yun Dan picked up the pile of things that Lu Ce bought, and said with a smile, "I'll send these to you."

The three left one after another.

Aunt Liu intended to stay and have a conversation with Zhao Anxu, but when she saw Wen Wenrou and Mama Wen were leaving, she wanted to rush to help, so she hesitated for a moment, but she heard Lu Ce keep her and said: "Sister-in-law Liu, I have something to say to you .”

"Young Master Lu, feel free to ask." Aunt Liu said to Xiaohuan with a smile, "Go and help your sister."

Xiaohuan responded, then glanced at Zhao An who was standing beside him, and chased after him with a smile.

Lu Ce kept Aunt Liu, but he didn't rush to speak, he just said to Zhao An: "I named you earlier, but I didn't expect that you and Miss Wen are old acquaintances, since they are used to calling you by that old name, they also There is no need to change it."
Zhao An replied "Yes", thought for a while but then said: "Please, please change it, I don't want to have anything to do with that Zhao family now."

Lu Ce nodded and said, "Then you can change your surname to Lu, and keep your first name as Lu An."

"Thank you for the name." Zhao An was used to being a servant in a big family, so he handled it very fluently.

"Well, go and make two cups of tea." Lu Ce wanted to talk to Mrs. Liu, and sent him away with an excuse.

How could Zhao An not know what he meant?He quickly agreed, and retreated first.

Mrs. Liu is also a clever person. She already guessed that Lu Ce wanted to ask her about Zhao An's background, and maybe she wanted to ask about Wenrou's past, but she didn't know whether she should talk about Wenrou. This matter, I picked up what I could tell, and told it out in every detail, even why she poisoned Mr. Zhao and was sent to an official for assignment, and she didn't hide anything.

Lu Ce listened calmly at first, but when she talked about Xiaohuan being abused by Mr. Zhao, he couldn't help feeling a little moved, and said in a deep voice, "Sister-in-law Liu, if you tell me about this, I won't be afraid that it will ruin Xiaohuan's life." ring reputation?"

"How could Young Master Lu be such a person?" Aunt Liu said confidently, "You rescued me back then, and you didn't ask any more questions. Now if I keep hiding it, I feel uneasy!"

Lu Ce nodded and said nothing more.He did hear a part of the matter between Xiaohuan and Mrs. Liu, but Wenrou kept quiet about Xiaohuan's privacy. Now that he heard it from Mrs. Liu, he was somewhat surprised and felt pity From the bottom of my heart, I guessed that Wen Ruan might have suffered a lot when she was in the Zhao residence, so she couldn't help asking: "Sister-in-law Liu, do you know the real name of Master Zhao?"

"This—" Aunt Liu lowered her head and thought for a while, "I don't really remember, it seems to be Zhao Ciliang."

"Benevolent?" Lu Ce twitched the corners of his lips. This name is really unreal!

On the other side of the wall, Lu Ce was asking Mrs. Liu about things, and on the other side of the wall, Mama Wen was also asking endlessly, asking about Wen Rou's work in Zhao's residence, and how she knew Zhao An.

Mother Wen didn't dare to ask in the past, not because she was curious and didn't want to know, but because she didn't dare, for fear of making Wen Rou sad, and complained that her mother was cruel and sold her daughter back then, but now she knows Wen Wen is never so narrow-minded, and she has Zhao An as an excuse If she doesn't take the opportunity to ask a few more questions, she will regret it to death.

Wenrou is not stupid, she was originally a counterfeit, she came here through time travel, who knows what happened to the genuine Wenrou who stayed in the Zhao Mansion for so many years?In line with the principle of saying more than you say, and silence is golden, whenever Mother Wen asked ten questions, she could only barely answer half a sentence, and the answers were vague and ambiguous.

Seeing that there was nothing to come out of the questioning, Mother Wen was disappointed, so she turned her target to Xiaohuan, and began to ask for news from Xiaohuan.

Although Xiaohuan is clever, but she can't stand Mama Wen's relentless pursuit, so she revealed something to let her know.

Mother Wen listened, and for some reason, suddenly remembered the matter of Gentle's "lostness", and before she could finish Xiaohuan's words, she rushed out the door with an "ouch".

"Mother, what's the matter with you?" Rourou stopped the kitchen knife in her hand, and looked at her in surprise.

"It's a bad thing! This is a bad thing!" Mama Wen was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and said without thinking: "That Zhao An! He! It must be a disaster to keep him!"

Rourou can never understand how those surprising and helpless thoughts in mother Wen's mind came into being. At this moment, she naturally doesn't understand why she said this, and asked strangely, "What did you think of?"

"Your matter!" Mother Wen stomped her feet anxiously: "Huan'er and Mrs. Liu will naturally not tell Young Master Lu, but this Zhao An...he clearly knows what you did in Zhao's mansion. Passed to Young Master Lu's ears..."

It turned out that it was for this again, and we really couldn't have much expectation for Mother Wen's ideological realm.Wen Rou stared at her in a daze, and suddenly became speechless.

"Auntie!" Xiaohuan couldn't listen anymore, and interjected, "Why do you always suspect that my sister has done... such a thing... She must feel so uncomfortable hearing you say that..."

"That's not the way to say it!" This time, Mother Wen was quite confident, and said: "People's words are terrible, no matter whether Rou'er has done that thing or not, the words come out of other people's mouths first, and those who listen will believe them." Three points, what if you have a lump in your heart? This is related to Rou'er's lifelong happiness, so it's better to take precautions early!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Lu Ce's cold and indifferent voice from outside the kitchen: "What needs to be prepared early?"

When Mother Wen heard this, she felt a "buzz" in her head, and instantly stood up like a statue, standing there with her mouth open, her face full of panic, her throat seemed to be stuffed with cotton, and she couldn't say anything no matter what. sound.
