The sweet wife of a domineering president

Chapter 282 The Dusty Truth

Came to the end of the path.Shen Xiaonian poked her probe forward, a trace of disappointment flashed in her heart unexpectedly, she thought she could come here to find memories, but in the end, the small villa in her memories was blocked by a cold concrete wall.

"Is this the end?" Li Haoyang said, with disappointment in his voice.Before I was disappointed for a while, I became curious about the scenery behind the wall again: "Nian Zhi, look at this cement wall...it was obviously blocked later, what do you think will be behind it?"

Shen Xiaonian shook her head and replied, "I don't know."

Li Haoyang winked at Shen Xiaonian and smiled, "Then do you want to go and have a look?"

"No." Seeing Li Haoyang's unwillingness to give up, Shen Xiaonian could only use her trump card: "Look at my skirt, look at my shoes, look at my..."

Finally, Li Haoyang raised his hands and surrendered to Shen Xiaonian: "Let's go back the same way."

After finishing speaking, Li Haoyang turned around and walked in front of Shen Xiaonian.

I don't know if it was Shen Xiaonian's illusion, but she always felt that there was a pair of eyes on the concrete wall, secretly staring at her, this feeling made goose bumps all over her body.

Thinking of this, Shen Xiaonian raised her head and looked at Li Haoyang in front, she followed slowly behind, and after walking a long way, the strange feeling in her heart disappeared.

In the Shen family mansion, Leng Mohan was led down to the second floor by an old cook.Leng Mohan accidentally found this old cook in a small miscellaneous room while walking around.

At the first sight of the old man in the small miscellaneous room, Leng Mohan's heart moved. He intuitively felt that the old man in front of him might know something about the past.

After hearing the intention of Leng Mohan's visit, the old man looked at the empty air, sighed softly, then turned his gaze to Leng Mohan, and said, "Young man, who are you from Xiao Nian?"

Leng Mohan pondered in his heart for a long time before he hesitated and said, "...friend. I am her friend."

"Young man, he is quite handsome, and he matches our Xiao Nian very well!" The old man seemed to have come here, and he could tell the truth from the lie with just one glance, "There are almost no people here except me and Steward Qian. People still know Xiao Nian. It's been a long time, and I haven't heard of Xiao Nian's name."

Leng Mohan frowned, what does this old man mean, how do you put it so...mysterious?
"Old man, what do you mean when you say that no one knows Shen Xiaonian except you and Steward Qian?"

The old man's eyes began to empty again, and he looked at the vast air. From his appearance, he knew that he must be deeply trapped in the memory, unable to extricate himself: "The people back then, except for me and Steward Qian, everyone has left. ...If Steward Qian and I were not related, I'm afraid, even I wouldn't be able to stay here..."

then?Could it be that the old man was talking about the year when Shen Xiaonian was kicked out of the Shen family?
But why drive out all the servants in the family?Does this contain some inside information that outsiders don't know?
The things in the old man's mouth became more and more mysterious.Leng Mohan had an intuition that something was wrong, and after seeing that there was no one around, he took a step and walked directly into the small miscellaneous room.After entering the room, Leng Mohan closed the door of the room, sat down beside the old man, and asked, "Old man, why did the people from back then leave? Did something happen?"

Originally, she thought that the old man with cloudy eyes would continue talking. After all, as she just said, the person in front of her was one of the few people she could confide in.But who knows, the old man gradually became sober, and shook his head at Leng Mohan's question, expressing that he had no comment.Ren Leng Mohan asked, but he kept silent.

Leng Mohan thought in his heart: The old man in front of him would not open his mouth no matter what he said, so there must be a lot of concealment... It seems that if he wants to know the whole thing, he has to think of other ways.

Now that he was determined to find another way, Leng Mohan no longer entangled with the old man in front of him.After changing the topic, Leng Mohan and the old man chatted again: "Old man, what did you do in Shen's house before?"

"I, I'm a cook, and I'm good at Hunan cuisine, Cantonese cuisine..." The old cook said a few dishes sparsely, and Leng Mohan sat next to him and counted them carefully, at least eleven or twelve. .

Leng Mohan picked up a few more topics and chatted briefly with the old cook.Although the old cook is old, she still speaks with reason and without ambiguity.

"Old man, why didn't Shen Changhe's son show up today?"

Hearing Leng Mohan calling her master's name directly, the old cook didn't have much reaction on her face, she just glanced at Leng Mohan flatly, her eyes were as calm as ashes: "Shen Shilin is gone...he has gone gone."

Later, it was Leng Mohan who inadvertently looked at the watch on his wrist, only to realize that he had unknowingly chatted with the old cook for more than ten minutes.Then, belatedly, I remembered my original purpose of coming here.

So, Leng Mohan got up, and bid farewell like an old cook: "Old man, let's talk here today, I'll go first, you have a good rest."

Before going out, Leng Mohan seemed to have thought of something, then turned around and turned back.Taking out his business card from his pocket, Leng Mohan bent down, reached out and handed the things to the old cook, and said softly: "Old man, this is my phone number, if you want to chat with someone in the future, just call Give it to me, will you?"

The old cook stretched out her hand and took it tremblingly.At the moment when Leng Mohan withdrew her hand, the old cook reached out to hold him again: "I'll take you around Shen's house, there are too many secrets here, I'm afraid you will get lost."

Leng Mohan was startled for a moment, but after he realized it, he quickly nodded in agreement: "Okay."

Although the old cook was full of energy, she still couldn't keep up in all aspects of her body, so she walked around the Shen mansion with Leng Mohan, and after talking for a while, almost half an hour passed like this.

When going down the stairs, the old cook seemed to be inexplicably excited, took Leng Mohan's hand, and began to talk non-stop: "Do you know? There is a big pear tree in the backyard of our Shen residence , every time in April, don’t mention how beautiful it is when it blooms and bears fruit... I remember, when we Xiao Nian was young, we liked that tree the most..."

"At that time the tree was not big enough for her to enjoy the shade. So, every time the sun was very bright, we Xiao Nian would like to hold my hand and ask me when the pear tree would grow up, when... she Only then can you jump on the rubber bands below."

"Now, more than ten years have passed, the pear tree has grown up, and she has also grown up...I reckon, we Xiao Nian should not like to dance with rubber bands now..."

Leng Mohan looked at the old cook speechlessly.He didn't speak, and he didn't dare to speak.He was afraid that once he opened his mouth, he would not be able to help but tell the old man in front of him that Shen Xiaonian was no longer here... Just like this, between the old cook and Leng Mohan, the two of them had walked out of the hall and came to Shen Xiaonian. The back garden of the house.Once in the back garden, even though it was night, with the help of the light from the banquet hall behind him, Leng Mohan still raised his head and saw clearly a man and a woman talking and laughing in front of him.
