At the same time that Yan Yan looked at this woman, the woman was also looking at Yan Yan, obviously, she was also figuring out Yan Yan's thoughts, but she probably didn't expect that Yan Yan didn't ask her origin or her age and place of origin when she came up, but asked her if she knew why the other party met her.

For this reason, the woman first shook her head, and then, seeing that Yan Yan didn't squeak, just looked at her condescendingly, and nodded, "I know, because the little one has done things in this mansion before." ”

"That's strange, what do you do in this house and what does it have to do with me? Why do I have to see you? Could it be that you don't know that this house has changed owners? Yan Yan asked unhurriedly.

At this time, it is psychological warfare.

This woman definitely doesn't look like an ordinary subordinate, not only does she not have the humility and deference in her eyes that have lived under people for a long time, on the contrary, she seems to be a little arrogant, she must have been used to being arrogant before, so she is very unsuitable for the current changes.

"Yes, because the little one left with the former owner of this house." The woman nodded.

"Oh, then I think you should have inquired before you came, and you know who I am, right?"

"I don't know, the little one just came to the capital for two days, and he didn't find anything to do, so he inadvertently transferred here, and found that there were already people living here, so he wanted to beg for food, and see if the new owner could remember some old feelings and take in the little one." The other shook his head.

This answer was unexpected by Yan Yan.

First of all, this woman said that she left with the first hostess, so it has been at least seventeen or eighteen years, and the capital has long become a place of things and people, why do you have to travel thousands of miles to beg for a living?

Also, although this woman's speech has a little southern accent, it is very close to the official dialect of the capital, and there are no obvious regional characteristics, so Yan Yan can't judge the other party's hometown for a while.

Third, this woman is not a serious poor person or a flower child at first glance, so what is it that arrogant people do not hesitate to depreciate their status and come in to make a subordinate figure, just for a bite to eat?

Fourth, how can anyone want to take refuge in the other party and sell himself to the other party without asking the origin of the master's surname, therefore, Yan Yan feels that this woman must be lying.

"It's only been two days since I arrived, can you take a look at your guide, where is your hometown?" Yan Yan asked.

The woman didn't hesitate when she heard this, and happily took out a piece of paper from her body to Yan Yan, and Qing He took it and handed it to Yan Yan.

Yan Yan didn't go to pick up the paper, but leaned over and glanced at it, and sure enough, it was from Shuzhong, and the reason was to join his family.

"I heard that Shuzhong has always been rich, known as the country of abundance, I don't know why you have traveled all the way to the capital, if you want to beg for food, where can't you? Besides, the old people say that the leaves fall back to their roots and return to their hometowns, do you still plan to go back when you run out at such an old age? Yan Yan asked.

"I'm ashamed to say that the little one was heartbroken by the relatives, I don't want to see them again in this life, I just want to get as far away from them as possible, so I thought about coming to the capital to try my luck and see if I can find a few old friends before, so I touched the house, dare to ask grandma, is there still an old person in the house twenty years ago?"

"What do you mean there were a lot of old people left here back then?" Yan Yan was interested when he heard this.

The ex-wife of the champion back then was obviously from a small family, even if there were a few followers, it would definitely not be much, but then she dragged her family away, and the family would never be less, in this case, it would be good not to buy a few people, how could you still leave a few old people?

And Li Xi has a lot of subordinates, and her people either followed her daughter back to her grandfather's house or were recovered by the royal family, and it is absolutely impossible to follow the ex-wife back to Shuzhong.

That's kind of interesting.

On the one hand, there is a shortage of manpower, and on the other hand, there are a few old people left, can the ex-wife be unpredictable, but there will definitely be other old people to find in more than ten years, so arrange a way out for them in advance.

reminds me of the cook that Zhou Haisheng said, she is in her sixties, the second and third masters have left, and she refuses to leave the house, and what is even more incredible is that a lonely old man on the other side is not afraid that this house is haunted.

Haunted?

She made it up.

Because as soon as the rumors of the haunting came out, no one dared to live in this house, and she could naturally stay.

But what is the purpose of staying?

Could it be that there are other secrets in this house?

Yan Yan's mind spun quickly, thinking of the TV she had watched in her previous life, and she came to a conclusion that there might be some treasures in this house, and the wife of the champion did not take it away for some reason, so she left a henchman to guard.

Later, Li Ji moved in, presumably threatening those things, so the cook took action.

Again and again, the house became a murderous house in the mouth of outsiders, and with a rumor of a haunting, the house became an empty house that no one cared about.

Who knew that within a few years, Yan Yan moved into this house with a person who walked around the palace of the king of Hades, because of the prince's advice, Zhou Haisheng took away the cook, and now her master has come to the door.

Thinking of this, Yan Yan stared at the other party and looked at it carefully.

"Grandma Hui, it's not the old man left by our master, it's the old man of the county lord before this house, our master only brought two maids and a small family into Beijing, but when he returned to Shuzhong, he encountered floods and plagues, and the little master and family were unfortunately gone, leaving only the small one and a son." The woman explained.

According to her own account, the situation was so tragic that large tracts of farmland and villages were flooded, so many people died, and there was no way out, so they had to stop at a temple.

But within two days, many refugees poured into the temple, and unfortunately, they were also infected with the plague, and at least six or seven out of ten people died.

According to her, there was not enough food to eat at that time, so she went up the mountain to dig wild vegetables to satisfy her hunger, and among all the people, she was the only one who barely ate a mouthful of food, all of which were wild vegetables.

Of course, this is just this woman's speculation, and it may be that she is trying to show Yan Yan her kindness and loyalty, but there is no way to know the specifics.

Anyway, Yan Yan didn't believe in this statement.

On the contrary, she had a vague feeling that maybe this woman was the ex-wife of the champion, otherwise she would not be able to explain her behavior after entering the door.

But is she really down to this point or is she pretending?

Also, what a lot of money this is, that cook lady has disregarded the lives of so many people, and this method is too vicious.
