Chapter 481: Relatives
Liu Wu raised his head, glanced at Zhang Yunwen with difficulty, opened his mouth, and was about to speak, but a wine burp came, and the wine was surging, and his already red face seemed to be dripping blood.
He stretched out his fingers and waved them weakly twice, closed his eyes, and fell asleep.
This made Zhang Yunwen, who was waiting for him to answer, angry, looking at Liu Wu who was sleeping soundly, he couldn't wait to immediately carry a bucket of cold water and splash it on Liu Wu's head to wake him up.
Not long after Liu Wu got drunk, Liu Yong also let out a whirring snoring sound.
Zhang Yunwen looked at the two brothers asleep, and his heart was very depressed, and those children and nephews of the Liu family had a worse amount of alcohol than Liu Yong and Liu Wulai, and they were already lying under the table before Liu Wu was drunk.
Therefore, on the huge dinner table, only Zhang Yunwen was drinking stuffy wine.
Finally, Zhang Yunwen was also drunk.
When Zhang Yunwen woke up, the first thing he did was to spit on the net bucket of bed and couch, and when his mouth was bitter and there seemed to be nothing to vomit, Zhang Yunwen washed his face and went out of the room.
Outside the window, the birds are singing and the sun is shining, and it is already morning.
Uh, it looks like I've slept all night in this Liu family's mansion.
remembered what Liu Wu said yesterday, and rushed to find Liu Wu at the moment.
"Second brother, second brother, yesterday you said that you met someone who looks very similar to my mother?" In the corridor, Zhang Yunwen stopped Liu Wu and asked anxiously.
Liu Wu shook his head and looked at Zhang Yunwen, Zhang Yunwen turned his head and looked at Liu Yong beside him: "Uh, did I say this?" β
Liu Yong nodded: "Although Lao Tzu is drunk, I still heard you say that!" β
"Fart, how can you hear when you're drunk!" Liu Wu said unceremoniously.
Liu Yong was about to refute, but Zhang Yunwen quickly stopped the two of them from arguing, and said with pleading: "Ouch, my brother, don't make trouble!" Second brother, tell me about the situation that day! β
Liu Wu grinned: "Okay, brother, I'll tell you!" β
It turned out that this Liu Wu was wandering around Chang'an City alone after a change of guard. When he accidentally walked to a jade shop called Qingbixuan, he suddenly felt that he had never bought jewelry for his mother-in-law, and he was ready to go to this Qingbixuan immediately.
When he walked to the door, Liu Wu saw a middle-aged woman approaching him, and immediately turned sideways to get out of the way. However, when the woman walked by, Liu Wu suddenly felt that this woman was familiar, giving him a very familiar feeling. But why do you feel this way?" he couldn't say.
Liu Wu thought for a moment, but couldn't think of a reason, so he put aside the matter and entered Qingbixuan to buy jewelry.
Yesterday, when Zhang Yunwen came to the house, Liu Wu suddenly remembered that the woman who didn't drink was six or seven points similar to Zhang Yunwen's mother?
So, Liu Wu told Zhang Yunwen the news.
After listening to Liu Wu's narration, Zhang Yunwen's heart swelled with an indescribable feeling. Due to the early death of his parents and the fact that he did not leave any clues about his relatives, Zhang Yunwen has always been lonely. Now I suddenly heard a woman who was six or seven points similar to my mother appeared in Chang'an, and my heart shook as you can imagine.
Just when Zhang Yunwen was a little sluggish, Liu Yong stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Zhang Yunwen's eyes, Zhang Yunwen pushed Liu Yong's hand away: "Big brother, what are you doing here?" β
Liu Yong sneered and retracted his hand.
was disturbed by Liu Yong like this, Zhang Yunwen came back to his senses. However, what Liu Wu said is too general, how can a woman who buys things in Qingbixuan, a population of hundreds of thousands in Chang'an, be found in this vast sea of people.
As for the name, Zhang Yunwen only knew that his mother's surname was Yang, and he was usually called "Zhang Yang", while the Liu brothers called her "Aunt Zhang".
"Hmm, second brother, what kind of cloth is that woman wearing, and does she have a lot of jewelry on her body?" Zhang Yunwen suddenly remembered something and hurriedly asked.
Liu Wu was silent for a moment and said, "It seems that you are wearing silk clothes!" As for the jewelry, I didn't pay attention to it, but there seems to be a jasper bracelet on that wrist! By the way, there was a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl behind him. But looking like that, it looks like a maid! β
Wearing a garment made of silk, accompanied by a maid, the woman's financial situation was not bad. And wearing a jasper bracelet on his hand, this made Zhang Yunwen a little uncertain, whether this jasper bracelet was sold before, or was it bought before Liu Wu entered the store?
After pondering for a moment and having no clue, Zhang Yunwen decided to continue to visit relatives and friends, and after visiting all the relatives and friends he knew, he would take care of the woman's affairs.
It took more than a day for Zhang Yunwen to finally visit the homes of people close to him in Chang'an City. Some just had a cup of tea and a few words, while others stayed at home for a meal.
After the visit, Zhang Yunwen slowly went to find the woman who was six or seven points similar to his mother.
Qingbi Xuan, this is the only clue.
Qingbixuan's jade shop is not the largest in Chang'an City, but the raw materials of jade here are all from Hetian, and the name of Hetian jade is much easier to use than Lantian jade. Coupled with the exotic carved decoration, this Qingbixuan brand has been preserved for decades.
When Zhang Yunwen approached Qingbixuan, the running hall waiting at the door hurriedly greeted him, and said with a smile on his face: "Oh, this guest officer, I don't know what you want?" We've got it all here! β
When Zhang Yunwen heard this, he couldn't help but roll his eyes: "Do you have swords for sale here?" β
The little second smiled sneeringly: "We are a jade shop, where do we sell swords!" β
"Then you have everything you say!" Zhang Yunwen left the back of the head for the young man who ran the hall, and looked along the counter to admire the jewelry hanging on the white walls.
Finally, Zhang Yunwen saw the round jasper bracelet, and immediately asked the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, how is this jasper bracelet?" Is it easy to sell? β
The thin shopkeeper was stunned, why did this customer ask like this, is it easy to sell? This is not a question that a guest should ask. However, the good juice literacy made him politely replied: "This bracelet is carved from the best Hetian jade, and it is decorated with Persian ornaments, of course it sells well!" Hmm, this guest, do you want to buy one? β
Zhang Yunwen withdrew the hand holding up the jasper bracelet, and tapped his fingers on the counter: "The shopkeeper, do you remember that a middle-aged woman bought this jasper bracelet a few days ago!" Uh, or maybe she was wearing this jasper bracelet on her hand when she bought other jewelry! β
"Ouch, this guest officer, you are embarrassed to be a villain! This jasper bracelet will be sold every one or two days, how can the villain remember it all? Besides, when the villain introduces jewelry to the guests, where does he still have the heart to see what jewelry the guests are wearing! β
As soon as these words came out, Zhang Yunwen couldn't help but be full of disappointment. It seems that there is no news in this Qingbi Xuan.
Standing outside Qingbixuan, Zhang Yunwen looked at the flow of people coming and going, couldn't help sighing, turned around and left Qingbixuan, and walked north. He went to the InquisiΓ³n for help.
However, just as Zhang Yunwen left with his front foot, a woman stepped into Qingbi Xuan with his back foot. This woman is the woman Zhang Yunwen is looking for.
The coincidence of life is really strange!
At this time, the investigation institute was in charge of Lin Ran, and the pigeons in this courtyard were not flying or landing, but they were already a landscape in Chang'an City. Although some of the prefectures also have pigeons flying around, the scale is nowhere near as large.
When Zhang Yunwen found Lin Ran, the gray-haired intelligence leader was standing in the courtyard with a leisurely face.
"Wow, Lao Lin, Lao Tzu has been here for only a few days, and you have lived so freely!" Zhang Yunwen said to Lin Ran with a smile.
As soon as Lin Ran heard Zhang Yunwen's voice, he got up and looked at Zhang Yunwen with an embarrassed face: "Well, that, the lower officials are not lazy, someone has done the following things, and the lower officials who should be dealt with have also dealt with them!" β
Zhang Yunwen smiled "haha": "Lao Lin, I'm just saying casually, don't take it to heart!" Besides, I'm here to ask you for help today, how dare I offend you! β
Lin Ran smiled bitterly: "Dean, don't be a shabby!" You are so powerful, where can you use me! β
Zhang Yunwen restrained his smile: "I really want your help!" Lao Lin, you also know that I am alone, and I don't know where my relatives are. But yesterday I just got the news that a woman who looks six or seven points similar to my mother appeared in Chang'an! So I want you to help find this woman! β
After saying this, Zhang Yunwen told Lin Ran the news he got from Liu Wu yesterday and his experience in Qingbixuan today.
The latter listened to this, pondered for a moment, and said, "In this way, this woman is not easy to find!" They may be rich or powerful, but they are not big; with a jasper bracelet; with a maid by his side; Probably surnamed Yang. Is that all there is to it? Seeing Zhang Yunwen nodded, Lin Ran sighed lightly, "Okay, then the lower official will try his best to help the adults find it!" β
"By the way, let's write this matter into the files of the Investigation Institute! This rule can't be abolished! Zhang Yunwen remembered the rules of the investigation institute and hurriedly said.
