Chapter 194: The Disciple of the Master (5)
Although Chi Xiaoman hurried and hurried, it was not until five days later that he and Qingying arrived at Qilin Villa, and Ji Minzhi had already left this place yesterday to find the person who wrote the letter back then. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
For a long time, the villa is still the same, even the porter has not been replaced, and when he saw Xiaoman coming back, he was so excited that he shouted all the way "Miss is back" for fear that someone didn't hear it.
And Mrs. Guan was naturally quite happy when she received the news that Xiaoman had arrived, and she didn't care about tidying up her makeup, so she hurriedly walked towards the front yard, and she couldn't even wait for the time for Chi Xiaoman to walk from the gate to the backyard.
In fact, since Ji Min came before and told Xiao Man that he would arrive at Qilin Villa in a few days, she has been looking forward to the arrival of her righteous daughter.
For Chi Xiaoman, she really treats her as a daughter, and she has always felt distressed for her, hoping that she can live a happy and stable life. It's a pity that Chi Xiaomantian's identity is destined to become the target of contention.
"Mother, Xiaoman misses you so much......" Xiaoman wanted to go directly to the backyard to find his stepmother, but halfway through, he saw that his stepmother had hurried to the front yard, and under surprise and excitement, he threw himself into Mrs. Guan's arms without thinking.
After coming to this time and space, only in Mrs. Guan can she feel the admiration of her elders, and similarly, Mrs. Guan has no daughter, and only in Xiaoman can she enjoy the intimacy of her daughter nesting in her arms.
"Mother's Xiaoman has lost weight...... Mrs. Guan looked carefully at Xiaoman's delicate but somewhat emaciated face, and said distressedly: "You have suffered these days, which daughter's family still has to worry about these national affairs, isn't it all the responsibility of men?"
Mrs. Guan said that she was sighing and distressed, and then instructed others to prepare supplements in the kitchen, intending to make up for Xiaoman's days in the villa.
"Mother, don't be busy with these things. Xiao Man pondered the words for a moment before he said: "Presumably my mother already knows the situation on the battlefield from Twelve, and my father-in-law ......."
"Mother knows. Mrs. Guan's original smile on her face faded, but she quickly smiled again and said: "Your father-in-law will be fine, my mother knows that the matter is urgent, and I only hate my mother for the five elements of yin and yang, and she can't give any help, it's hard for you to remember that your mother once said the history of this villa." ā
Mrs. Guan paused for a moment and continued: "The person who sent the letter back then was not the one who wrote the letter, but judging from the books sent with the letters, the handwriting of the letters and the books is the same person, but the handwriting of the master who was familiar with the ancestors is not the same. This is also the child Min Zhi came to me to ask me about the letter, and I found out. ā
In other words, the person who wrote the letter is very likely to be a relative or disciple of the senior master. Chi Xiaoman muttered, deeply feeling that this was the case. "Mother's books and the books that my predecessors gave to the villa before, can I take a look at it from my daughter?"
"Of course, those books are inside, and all the disciples of the mountain villa can read them. Mrs. Guan finished speaking, and walked with Chi Xiaoman.
In Qilin Villa, Chi Xiaoman is naturally not the first time to come in, but the astronomical almanacs placed above the third floor, as well as the five elements of yin and yang, gossip arrays and other books, Chi Xiaoman has never read it, except that she is not interested, the biggest reason is that she can't understand it.
On the third floor, Mrs. Guan took out the dozen or so books left by the senior master, as well as a few books and Janes sent by the person who wrote the letter later, from the bookshelf and put them on the desk.
Xiaoman didn't say much, Mrs. Guan found a book, and she read a book.
Although she couldn't understand the content, she was a student of history, and when she was in graduate school, there was an old professor who was an archaeologist, and she learned not only the basic knowledge of archaeology from the professor, but also the inference from the terms in the book whether it was the work of the same person.
In ancient times, there were often cases of teachers dictating and disciples writing, and of course, there were many cases where disciples copied the master's books, so the difference in handwriting was nothing, and from the content style and language habits, it was still possible to distinguish whether it was the work of the same person.
Xiao Man looked at it very quickly, and although Mrs. Guan didn't understand whether she saw anything, she didn't rush to disturb her, but first quietly ordered her subordinates to come over with some refreshments, so that Xiao Man could eat some when he rested.
Half an hour later, Xiao Man had read all the nearly twenty volumes, a smile appeared on his lips, and his spirit, which had been tense for the past few days, was also relieved, as if he had taken a reassuring pill.
"Xiaoman, don't be tired, use some tea first, eat a snack to cushion your stomach. Mrs. Guan didn't ask him what he saw, but when she stopped, she said with concern.
Xiao Man found that there was a plate of delicate snacks and a pot of tea on the side of the bookcase.
"Thank you, mother. Xiaoman looked at Mrs. Guan with emotion and joy, sure enough, a mother's child is a treasure...... She really wants to be a mother in the twenty-first century, but she can't see her in this life, but fortunately, there is still Mrs. Guan, a stepmother, so that she can still enjoy the treatment of being a mother and a baby girl in this time and space.
After using two pieces of pastry and drinking a few sips of tea, Xiao Man talked about the books and said, "Mother, my daughter can be sure that these books must have been written by the seniors and their relatives and disciples. In other words, if we find the person who wrote the letter, we will be able to know if the senior master has a disciple, and if so, we will be able to ask the master to help us!"
