Chapter 507: Goodbye Mrs. Xu
The sky gradually darkened, but the wild dog looked straight at the ground at this time and didn't say a word, Li Zhang sat next to him and patiently tasted tea, just now he had told the situation of the Zhou family, and when he heard that the Zhou family was also destroyed by the ghost beggar's family, the wild dog also hated to break a teacup, and after listening to it, he kept this posture motionless.
But at this moment, Xiuxiu personally delivered the prepared meal, which made the wild dog finally sober up from his contemplation, and finally spoke: "Xiuxiu, you give the jade bracelet to the eldest brother!" ”
Xiuxiu has always been concerned about the wild dog's decision, and now she is stunned when she hears his words, and she doesn't understand what he means? However, she was still very obedient and took off the jade bracelet and put it in front of Li Zhang.
At this time, I saw that the wild dog also looked at Li Zhang and said: "Big brother, although she is the only woman left in the Zhou family, I don't know what her attitude is towards me, maybe she doesn't want to recognize me as a relative at all, so eldest brother might as well take this jade bracelet to her and see what her attitude is?" ”
Li Zhang and Xiuxiu were relieved when they heard this, and they both looked at each other with a relaxed smile, because since the wild dog was willing to show the jade bracelet to Mrs. Xu, it also meant that he wanted to recognize Mrs. Xu, after all, the other party should be his only relative in the world, but the wild dog still had a little worry and fear in his heart, so he let Li Zhang come forward first.
"No problem, I accepted the jade bracelet, you wait for my news!" Li Zhang put away the jade bracelet at the moment and said, and then did not mention this matter again, but accompanied the wild dog and Xiuxiu to eat together, but Li Zhang found that the wild dog was obviously absent-minded, and even the amount of food was much smaller, and finally there were leftovers for the first time, this is the first time Li Zhang has known the wild dog, as long as he eats with him, the first time he sees the leftovers, Xiuxiu also knows that the wild dog has no appetite, so he did not force him to finish eating.
Early the next morning, Li Zhang got into the carriage alone and came to the old house of the Zhou family again, this time he didn't bring Qingzhi, after all, Qingzhi is also very busy now, in addition to taking care of her daughter, she also has to deal with things inside and outside the family, and now even the raccoon dog has been pulled by her to check the account book as a coolie, and if Li Zhang is fine, she will also go to help her.
Li Zhang got out of the car and knocked on the door again, it was still the door opened by the old man with bad eyes yesterday, the other party squinted and looked at him for a long time, and finally Li Zhang introduced himself, and the other party recognized him, and then immediately invited him to enter the house to serve tea in the main hall.
"Didn't Brother Li say that he would think about it for two days, why did he come so soon?" Mrs. Xu also smiled when she saw Li Zhang, maybe it was because of yesterday's conversation that she seemed to be more enthusiastic about Li Zhang, and she was no longer as cold as yesterday.
"I'm not here for the sake of the house, but for something to show Madame!" Li Zhang didn't beat around the bush, but spoke directly, and took out the jade bracelet left by the wild dog's mother from his arms as he spoke.
"Isn't this Mrs. Zun's jade bracelet, why did Little Brother Li bring it, is this what you want me to see?" Mrs. Xu saw the misunderstanding caused by the jade bracelet that Li Zhang took out, and laughed again at the moment.
"This is not my lady's jade bracelet yesterday, but the one that Madame is looking for!" Li Zhang shook his head slowly at this time, and said with a serious expression.
As soon as Li Zhang's words came out, Mrs. Xu was stunned at first, and then her whole body trembled with excitement, but at this time, she suddenly looked at Li Zhang in disbelief and asked, "...... You're not trying to lie to me, are you? ”
"Whether it's true or not, Madame will know when you pick it up and see it!" Li Zhang also sighed at this time and said, when people are closest to the goal to complete their wishes, they are always prone to self-doubt, because he has put too much effort and time into this goal, and even in his heart he already thinks that it is impossible to achieve the goal, and the previous efforts are just mechanical repetition.
Hearing Li Zhang's words, Mrs. Xu finally slowly stretched out her trembling hand, and the moment her fingers touched the jade bracelet, Mrs. Xu's face changed again, and then she grabbed the jade bracelet tightly in her hand and stroked it carefully, especially when she touched the inscription on the inside, it made her tears of excitement flow, and there seemed to be a little sister's voice and smile in front of her.
However, Mrs. Xu quickly woke up from her excitement, and immediately stared at Li Zhang and asked again with some vigilance: "Little Brother Li, you came to buy a house yesterday, and you also asked Mrs. Zun to deliberately expose the jade bracelet, do you want to test me?" ”
"Don't blame Madame, I also wanted to help my brother find his relatives, and it was not easy to find Madame, but I couldn't be sure, so I made this decision in desperation!" Li Zhang admitted very generously at this time.
"Your brother? Close relatives? Mrs. Xu also immediately got the two most important news from Li Zhang's words, and her face showed an even more excited expression at the moment.
Seeing this, Li Zhang also sighed secretly and said again: "Madame guessed right, this jade bracelet is indeed carried by my brother, and it is also a relic of his mother, and I also found Madame here through some means." ”
"Relic! My sister ......" Mrs. Xu asked in a choked voice, but she couldn't ask anymore halfway through the question.
"Yes, if this jade bracelet is really Ling Mei's, then she should have died more than ten years ago." Li Zhang sighed again and told the sad news.
"Woo~, my hard-working little sister!" Mrs. Xu finally couldn't help crying bitterly when she heard this, although she had long guessed that her sister was no longer alive, after all, there was almost no precedent for a woman who was kidnapped by the ghost beggar to come back alive, but she didn't hear the news of her sister's death for a day, and she had a little hope in her heart, but today this hope was completely shattered.
Looking at the grieving Mrs. Xu, Li Zhang didn't know how to persuade her, so she could only wait patiently, but fortunately, Mrs. Xu quickly restrained her emotions, and saw her wipe a handful of tears and ask again: "You said that this bracelet belongs to your brother, do you mean that the little sister is ...... The heirs she left behind? ”
"Well, my brother's name is Li Ye, this jade bracelet is a relic left by her mother, but her mother forbade him to look for his relatives, and he never thought of looking for it, but he recently got married, and his wife knew about it, so she discussed with us to help him find it, and yesterday I told him about Madame, but he was still a little worried, so he didn't dare to come to see Madame." Li Zhang nodded first, and then introduced the situation of the wild dog.
Mrs. Xu is not stupid, she naturally heard Li Zhang's words, her sister actually forbade the child named Li Ye to come to find relatives, obviously there is a problem with this child's life experience, after all, her sister was kidnapped by a ghost beggar, and she will definitely not be able to maintain her innocence, and this child is likely to be the child born after being raped, thinking of this, her heart is also tingling.
