Chapter 71: The Su Orphan
The person who spoke was Mrs. Shen, who had dealings with Shang Yucheng from time to time. Shang Yucheng greeted with a smile, looked at Ye Shen with a serious face on the side, shook his head helplessly, and walked out with Mama Shi and Mrs. Shen.
"Young Master, Miss Shang-" Ah Wen was directing everyone to move things down from the car, and saw Ye Shen and Shang Yucheng hurriedly coming over to say hello, "Where are these things placed?" I told my brothers to move to the place. β
Mama Shi looked at the steady stream of things that were being moved down from the cart in amazement, "Thisβwas it sent by Mr. Ye?" β
Ye Shen hurriedly took a step forward and replied, "Yes." It's just some quilts, fabrics, and food, and I don't know if I can use them. β
The biggest expense of the orphanage is nothing more than these few things, which are naturally very suitable. When Mama Shi heard this, her face showed joy, she glanced at Shang Yucheng beside her with a smile, and said to Ye Shen, "Of course you can use it, the things sent by Mr. Ye are really considerate, I thank you for the children." β
Ye Shen hurriedly replied, "How can you be worthy of this thank you?" If I talk about the word dedication, I can't mention it in front of you. β
Mama Shi smiled and bowed slightly, and was no longer polite, took the key and asked someone to take Arwen and them to move things.
When Awen sent the order of goods to see, he realized that Ye Shen was really modest, that batch of goods not only had a lot of quilts, fabrics and food, but also books, paper and pens, and commonly used medicines, and what was even more rare was that there were many vegetables and fruits under the current season. Seeing Mama Shi's eyebrows and smiles, Ye Shen took out a check in time and handed it over, and when she saw the numbers on it, Mama Shi's hand holding the check trembled with excitement.
Shang Yucheng looked at Mama Shi's reaction, glanced at Ye Shen helplessly, and shook his head with a smile.
Suddenly, there was a "bang" on the wall, which startled everyone. Turning his head, it turned out that the child who had been punished for standing in the corner of the wall was standing sleepy, dozing and crashing against the wall, and was covering his head with one hand and rubbing his eyes with the other, looking at Mama Shi a little nervously, as if he was afraid of being punished again.
At this time, Mama Shi only thought that this money and these things were enough for these children to live without food and clothing for at least two or three years, where could she take care of punishing him.
Ye Shen stood closer, then walked over to help the child up, and rubbed his head with a smile, "Young man, does it hurt?" β
Seeing that Mama Shi really didn't mean to be angry, the child became bolder, shook his head and said, "No." He looked at Ye Shen and then at Shang Yucheng with big eyes, and suddenly asked, "Are the uncle and that aunt two people?" β
As soon as these words came out, everyone laughed. Shang Yucheng's face turned red to the root of his ears in an instant, but Ye Shen suddenly smiled, he immediately touched it from his pocket, took out a golden pen and stuffed it into the child's hand, and said with a wink, "I think you are so smart - you must be a reading material." This pen is for you. β
"Ye Shen!" Shang Yucheng blushed with anger on his face, "What nonsense are you talking about?" β
Ye Shen asked the child in a low voice, "What's your name?" β
"My name is Su Yunkai, Yunkai of Yunkai and Sunrise." The kid looked at Ye Shen, took the pen that Ye Shen had stuffed into him and touched it, and then stuffed the pen back into Ye Shen's hand, "This is too precious, I can't ask for it." β
"Yunkai?" Ye Shen looked at him with a smile, "This pen is worthless, it's just easy to use." β
Xiao Yunkai shook his head firmly, "This pen is a top-notch product, I recognize it." β
Ye Shen looked at him with some surprise, "Do you recognize the texture of this pen?" β
Everyone felt a little strange and calmed down and looked at Yunkai.
Xiao Yunkai nodded, but when he asked again, he just shook his head and didn't speak.
Mama Shi sighed and said, "This kid has not been in the courtyard for a long time, and he is still a little recognized, so please don't be surprised by Mr. Ye." β
Ye Shen shook his head, "It's okay." β
Mrs. Shen walked over with a smile and said, although she has some recognition, she is a very beautiful and smart child, come, aunt will take you to eat candy. β
Yun Kai listened to Mrs. Shen's words, nodded and took Mrs. Shen's hand, and said to Ye Shen before going out, "Uncle, you have such a good pen, you must be a person who loves pens." If there is a pen next to it, do you know its origin and origin? β
Ye Shen was stunned for a moment before nodding and said, "I probably know." What's wrong? β
Yun Kai frowned and thought for a while, then hesitated and said, "Will Uncle still come to see me?" β
Ye Shen smiled and nodded, "Naturally, I will come, next time I will definitely prepare a gift you like, what do you like to tell your uncle?" β
Yun Kai shook his head, "I don't want anything, my uncle remembers to come and see me." β
Ye Shen looked at Yunkai, couldn't help but feel sour in his heart, and nodded seriously.
Yun Kai turned around and followed Mrs. Shen with confidence.
Shang Yucheng stared at the direction Yun Kai left, his eyes were still full of the child's slightly frowning appearance, and his heart jumped violently.
"If there is anything else in the courtyard, Mama just tell me that I often walk outside, and there are always more ways than others." Ye Shen said solemnly.
Mama Shi nodded with satisfaction, "Thank you Mr. Ye for your generosity, may the Lord grant you eternal peaceβ"
"Mama-" Before Mama Shi could finish speaking, Shang Yucheng, who had always been calm and polite, suddenly interrupted her words, with an eager look of extreme control on his face, "That Yunkai, what is his origin?" β
Mama Shi glanced at Shang Yucheng strangely, sighed and said, "Speaking of which, this child is really miserable, because his biological parents' family is poor, so he sold him to a family that can't have children. Although the family is in an embarrassing situation, they are not bad for this child, but not long after adopting this child, the wife of that family suddenly became pregnant and gave birth to a pair of twin sons-" Mama Shi shook her head, "This child was taken in by an old couple who sold vegetables, but this year, the old couple fell ill in winter, so they had to ask someone to send it here." When I sent it, my hands and feet were frozen, and I was relieved for two days. β
Ye Shen listened wordlessly, frowned slightly, turned his head and saw that Shang Yucheng's face was different, and asked strangely, "Yucheng, what's wrong with you?" β
Shang Yucheng subconsciously shook his head, paused and shook his head, "No-according to Mama's words, his biological parents and adoptive parents are not well-off at home, and they must not be able to afford any luxuries, how can he know that Ye Shen's pen is of excellent quality and expensive?" β
Mama Shi shook her head blankly, "I didn't think about it that much, maybe someone in the family worked in the shop, or a pen repairer." β
Ye Shen looked at Shang Yucheng and knew that she must have thought of her son, who was still nowhere to be seen. He remembered that the Su family had been running stationery for several generations - and Yunkai was also surnamed Su!
Could it be that this kidβ
But the boy was only a few days old when he was sent away, and even if he was a brilliant genius, he would never have learned to recognize the texture of a fountain pen.
Ye Shen felt as if he had gotten a messy ball of yarn, and although there were thousands of clues, he couldn't give a reasonable answer.
He paused and looked up at Mama Shi, "Where are this child's biological parents now?" β
Seeing that Ye Shen and Shang Yucheng repeatedly asked about this child, Mama Shi said curiously, "What are you doing with these questions?" β
Ye Shen glanced at Shang Yucheng and thought to himself, since everything has not been investigated clearly, it would be inconvenient for others to know. So he said, "It's nothing, I just think that this kid has a poor background, and since his parents abandoned him only because of his poor familyβmaybe I can think of a plan." If they have a skill, it is not difficult to get a job to make a living. β
Mama nodded and sighed, "If it was easy to find, presumably his ruthless adoptive parents should have returned the child to others, I am afraid it will be difficult to find." She looked at Ye Shen and Shang Yucheng, "If you want to help, I'll ask someone to inquire." β
Ye Shen nodded, glanced at Shang Yucheng, and the two of them said goodbye and walked out.
Shang Yucheng's heart was still pounding.
That frowning look - so similar to the child in the photo Shu Qiang gave her!
Why is that child's surname Su, and why is he so smart to recognize the golden pen?
"Yuchengβ"
Ye Shen called several times, and saw that Shang Yucheng was only walking with his head buried as if he hadn't heard, so he had to hold her arm, "Yucheng!" β
Shang Yucheng looked up at him.
Ye Shen looked at Shang Yucheng's eager eyes, sighed and said, "Do you suspect that child isβis it Su Jingyao's child?" β
Shang Yucheng neither shook his head nor nodded, looking at his eyes unusually bright.
"I got a picture of a child, and even though it's not very clear, the child has grown a lot. Butβ" Shang Yucheng tried to settle down, "I think it's seven or eight percent similar to this Yunkai. β
Ye Shen said unexpectedly, "Oh? Do you have a photo of your child? β
Shang Yucheng nodded, "It's at home now." β
Saying that, she was already impatient, "I'll go back-"
Ye Shen immediately said, "I'll drive you." β
Shang Yucheng couldn't wait for a moment, Ye Shen had to call Ah Wen over and hurriedly explain a few words, and asked him to send Zhou Ping and Xianglin, who were still with the children, back.
Ye Shen's car stopped steadily in front of Shang Yucheng's house.
"Here we are." Ye Shen stopped the car and turned his head to look at Shang Yucheng, "Get out of the car." β
Shang Yucheng looked at the door of his house and sat still.
"What's wrong?" Ye Shen looked at her and asked softly.
Shang Yucheng seemed restless all the way, and Ye Shen certainly knew that she was anxious, so he drove the car fast. But when she got to the door, she hesitated.
Shang Yucheng turned his head to look at Ye Shen, and there was a look of fear in his eyes.
"What if I'm mistaken?" Shang Yucheng snorted. "What if Yun Kai looks completely different from that kid - he is not at all?"
Ye Shen looked at Shang Yucheng's sudden weak appearance, his heart tightened, he wanted to hug her into his arms and give her some comfort, but here and now, he couldn't.
"Yucheng." Ye Shen reached out and held her hand tightly, "Whether Yunkai is or not, I promise you that I will definitely find him for you!" β
Shang Yucheng felt the heat of her fingertips, and Ye Shen held it so tightly that her fingers were also a little painful. But she slowly calmed down.
Even if Yun Kai is not, he is always waiting in some corner of the world - just like Ye Shen beside him at this moment. Maybe sometimes it is far away, but one day, it will always be around.
Shang Yucheng gently shook Ye Shen's hand back and smiled wordlessly.
Ye Shen looked at her and smiled softly.
At this moment, in Ye Shen's eyes, the color of all the women he had seen in the past was not as good as Shang Yucheng's smile. Perhaps there is always a tangled and complicated love in his feelings for Shang Yucheng, so that he is not only willing to offer his love, but also willing to accept all her imperfections.
"Let's go." Shang Yucheng let go of Ye Shen's hand.
"I'll go with you to see it." Ye Shen said uneasily.
Shang Yucheng was much more rational at this time, and shook his head with a smile, "Now you and Miss Zhou are still a couple, what are you doing with me going in?" What's more, your car is too conspicuous to park here. She looked at Ye Shen and said in a soft voice, "Don't worry, I will treat it calmly no matter what, and I will never be anxious again." β
Ye Shen was a little relieved when he heard her say this, but he still frowned and asked, "I'll call you when I get home, and tell me when you see how to do it." If it is indeed similar, I will send additional people to inquire about the news. And - no matter what, you can't act rashly, the Lu family is watching from the side, you must not do anything to arouse their suspicion. Got it? β
"Got it." Shang Yucheng smiled and nodded, "How can you be more verbose than Xianglin." With that, she opened the car door and got out of the car and walked towards the door.
Ye Shen watched her open the door and enter, also turned the head of the car, and left quickly.
Shang Yucheng walked into the room, quickly opened the dark compartment in the dressing chair, and suddenly stopped and paused, clenching his fists vigorously to calm his slightly trembling hands.
She took out the photograph and carefully placed it in the palm of her hand, staring at the little man above, unable to take her eyes off it.
"Miss!" Xianglin's voice came from outside, with a hint of eagerness.
She didn't know what happened to make Shang Yucheng suddenly leave the orphanage in such a hurry, and she couldn't tell why she asked Ah Wen, so she had to urge Ah Wen all the way, and finally came back not too slowly.
She knocked on Shang Yucheng's door, "Miss, are you okay?" β
After a few seconds, the room opened from the inside.
Shang Yucheng was dressed neatly, as if he was going out.
"Miss, are you going out?" Xianglin looked at her strangely, "Didn't you just come back?" β
Shang Yucheng nodded, "Suddenly there is something important to go out. You don't have to follow, prepare dinnerβ" she smiled, "I'll be back at dinner." β
Xianglin looked at Shang Yucheng inexplicably, and was relieved to see that she didn't do anything, and after thinking about it, Xu Ye Shen wanted to stay alone with Shang Yucheng so he hurried away with her, and he was a little happy in his heart, so he smiled and said, "Since you have something to do, Miss go quickly, I will give you stewed chicken to eat in the evening, and there are still a lot of old ginseng sent by Mr. Ye." β
Shang Yucheng nodded, and was about to walk out before stopping, "If Mr. Ye calls, just say that I will go out to do something, and call him back when I come back." β
Xianglin answered, and Shang Yucheng hurried away.
Xianglin went to change clothes and cook, Shang Yucheng called a car, and rushed all the way to Longxing Teahouse.
