Luo Jiachi's reaction exceeded the housekeeper's expectations.

I have been in Gangcheng for many years, I haven't seen anything good in Luojiachi, and the things sent by the Shao family in Yuncheng are worth a few dollars, no matter how valuable they are?

Others don't know the old man's personality preferences, but she, the housekeeper who has been with the old man for decades, knows it.

The old man is also a little interested in calligraphy and painting on weekdays.

And the calligraphy and paintings at home are the favorites collected by the old man, and what you can't get is often really gone.

A small mahogany box could never contain calligraphy and paintings, so the old man's reaction was really abnormally tight.

Steward Xu understood in his heart, and when he saw the old man's reaction, he became a little worried: "Master? ”

Luo Jiachi ignored Steward Xu, just stretched out his hand tremblingly, then took the box over, and took out the green sandalwood comb inside the box with an unbelievable expression.

Steward Xu saw that the green sandalwood comb in the old man's hand was also carved with an magnolia flower, and instantly understood why the old man's reaction was so abnormal.

"Master, this is ......"

"Yes, yes......" Tears appeared in the old man's eyes, and his lips trembled uncontrollably, he was a little excited, but he couldn't hide his grief, "This is the comb I gave to Minzhi back then." ”

The housekeeper frowned, and sighed a little at the keen mind of the young lady of the Shao family.

After the death of the old lady, the old lady has always remembered the old lady's last wish that he could not find this comb before her death, and in the past 30 years, he has continued to go to antique auction houses and various antique shops to find this token of love between the two people who were killed in difficult times.

However, it has not been found for thirty years.

The old man was almost about to give up.

However, at this time, the people of the Shao family actually found this thing, which is really heartfelt.

"Look, sir...... The young lady of the Shao family is still waiting for you outside. Steward Xu kindly reminded him.

The old man's mood was very complicated, his fingers slowly stroked the comb, his heart was surging, and his mind recalled many memories of being with his wife.

"Go and tell her to come here." The old man spoke.

He wanted to meet this girl and see what kind of person she was.

When Steward Xu heard the old man's order, he immediately nodded and turned to go out.

Shao Xue and Zang Ling'er were waiting in the living room.

Zang Ling'er took a sip of tea, and out of the corner of her eye, she saw Shao Xue's hands clasped tightly together.

She smiled and comforted her, "Don't worry. ”

Shao Xue pursed her lips: "Did the old man ask you to find this comb before?" ”

Since it is a very important thing for the old man, the Zang family, as a collection and storage place for rare antiques, the old man must have gone to her Ali to find it.

Zang Ling'er didn't hide it, and nodded frankly: "Yes, I did go to find it." ”

"So, why don't you give this thing to the old man?"

Shao Xue was puzzled.

Zang Ling'er smiled and replied, "The timing is not right. ”

The simple four words made Shao Xue understand at once.

yes, the timing is not right.

At that time, the Zang family didn't need the help of the old man, so there was no need to come up with such a bargaining chip that could restrain the old man.

If you really hand over this comb, you will waste the important role of this comb in vain.

Zang Ling'er didn't continue to explain to Shao Xue.

However, looking at Shao Xue's expression, you can know that Shao Xue has already thought about the pros and cons.

Shao Xue exhaled softly: "I hope the old man won't be angry." ”

If the old man knew that she used the token of her love to his wife to ask to marry Luo Xi, the old man didn't know if he would feel threatened?

Zang Ling'er smiled and said, "I won't be angry with you, and I will thank you." ”

"Thank you I can't think about it, but it's good not to be angry with me."

Shao Xue smiled slightly.

At this time, a housekeeper came down from upstairs, and then called out to Shao Xue: "Miss Shao." ”

Shao Xue heard the housekeeper calling her, so she followed the voice and looked over.

The butler's face was polite and distant, but he always felt that his attitude was much kinder than just now.

The housekeeper spoke: "Miss Shao, our master wants to see you. ”

Shao Xue nodded: "Yes." ”

Then he got up and followed Steward Xu upstairs.

Zang Ling'er also stood up and prepared to go over together.

But the housekeeper thought about it carefully, and didn't remember that the master had an order to let Miss Zang follow, so he politely said: "Miss Zang stays." ”

Zang Ling'er stopped.

Steward Xu said apologetically: "Please wait here for a while." ”

Zang Ling'er knew that this matter had already been done, even if she didn't follow Shao Xue to see the old man, it would be fine, so she sat on the sofa: "Then I'll wait for you here." ”

"Well, I'll be back in a minute."

After Shao Xue finished talking to Zang Ling'er like this, she walked with Steward Xu to the old man's study.

The villas of the Luo family are not inferior to the Shao family, they are all people with heads and faces, and the decoration and furnishings at home are carefully selected and designed.

When he arrived at the door of Luojiachi's study, Steward Xu stopped, knocked lightly on the door of the study, and then said, "Master, Miss Shao is here." ”

"Come in."

The old but majestic voice came from the study.

Shao Xue's heart was slightly nervous.

The housekeeper smiled at Shao Xue before saying, "Go in, Miss Shao." ”

Steward Xu pushed the door open for Shao Xue.

The bright study was very large, and Shao Xue only saw that the study was covered with a light coffee-colored carpet with exquisite patterns.

She took a step forward, and Steward Xu closed the door playfully, and then waited outside.

When I entered the door and went deeper, I saw shelves with various books on the walls of the study.

The bookshelves are high up to the roof.

On top of the bookshelf there are many scrolls of picture scrolls.

The old man sat behind his desk, behind which was a large bookshelf with all kinds of original French and English books.

Perhaps hearing Shao Xue's footsteps, he raised his head against it.

Shao Xue saw Luo Jiachi's appearance clearly for the first time, and immediately said hello to him: "Hello Mr. Luo." ”

"Please be seated."

Luo Jiachi motioned for her to sit across from him.

Shao Xue sat down on the seat, and then saw a book in front of Luo Jiachi, and on the open page, the green sandalwood comb that had just been taken out of the mahogany box was placed.

"How did you find this thing?"

The old man asked her directly.

Shao Xue naturally can't say that this was taken from the Zang family, but it can't be said that it was brought from the Shao family.

Because the old man rejected his marriage to Luo Xi at first, the reason why the old man refused must be that he didn't want to get involved with the Shao family.

Or maybe he hates the Shao family.

She was a little hesitant in her heart, but after thinking about it again, she still opened her mouth and told the truth: "This is what Yun Xuan helped me find." ”

"Yun Xuan?"

Luo Jiachi frowned slightly.

Shao Xue thought that she didn't know Song Yunxuan, so she opened her mouth to explain: "Song Yunxuan of our Song family in Cloud City. ”

Saying this, Luo Jiachi thought about it: "You mean, that little daughter of Song Yan?" ”

"Yes."

Shao Xue nodded.

Old man Luo still heard of Song Yunxuan, after all, when Song Yunxuan came to Hong Kong City, he was entangled with the Huo family for a long time, and the mother and daughter of the Huo family lost their power because of Song Yunxuan, and were finally made to a catastrophe by the young master of the Luo family.

Speaking of this, Song Yunxuan is a good assist, and her contribution is indispensable.

"Miss Song, it's a far-sighted plan."

Shao Xue listened to the words of the old man of the Luo family, and felt that this sentence was five points positive and five points depreciative, so she didn't say anything.

However, it can also be seen from the reaction of the old man of the Luo family that this old man does not like this young lady of the Song family very much, nor does he dislike the young lady of the Song family very much.

Attitudes wander and there is no preference to be seen.

The old man looked at the green sandalwood comb in front of him, and said, "When did you and Luo Xi meet?" ”

When Shao Xue set off from Cloud City before, Song Yunxuan had already taught her how to answer this sentence if she met the old man.

Therefore, now that the old man asked about this matter, she didn't think much about it, and said kindly: "I met at the anniversary of Hong Kong City University two weeks ago. ”

Luo Xi once told Song Yunxuan that he participated in the centennial celebration of his alma mater two weeks ago.

The old man likes his eldest grandson to go to those parties that are good for him, and he does not like his grandson to go to the banquets held by the rich children who are of little use.

said that he met at the school celebration, and the old man was quite satisfied.

"You're not alumni of Luo Xi, are you?"

If you are an alumnus, you have naturally known each other for a long time, how can you only know each other two weeks ago?

Shao Xue nodded: "I am a former student of Yuncheng Business School who came to Daogang City to be an exchange student, and I just heard about the school anniversary, so I came to Gangcheng to have a look, but unfortunately, I met Luo Xi." ”

After that, Shao Xue didn't say anything specific, but there was a bit of a shy expression on her face, which made people naturally understand what was going on.

The old man of the Luo family nodded and said, "Then this can be regarded as fate." ”

Shao Xue didn't speak, but she acquiesced.

The old man asked again: "I heard that you are not Shao Tianze's own sister. ”

Shao Xue heard the old man of the Luo family ask this, and knew that the cat was too tired.

Shao Tianze killed his adoptive parents in order to cover up his background, she naturally couldn't say anything about it, but with an old man who was already disgusted with Shao Tianze, she erected the matter that Shao Tianze was not a sister but was like a brother and sister, which made the old man disgusted her.

That's a really hard question to answer.

Seeing that Shao Xue hadn't answered for a long time, the old man didn't ask deeply, but changed his words and asked, "You are with Luo Xi, you won't harm him, right?" ”

As soon as the old man said this, Shao Xue immediately said: "Absolutely not!" ”

Shao Xue replied quickly, resolutely and firmly.

Almost subconsciously, he made a promise: "I will never harm Luo Xi when I am with Luo Xi, please rest assured grandpa." ”

She and Luo Xi were together, even if they used each other, they didn't think about doing anything to hurt Luo Xi at all.

She even had to thank Luo Xi for giving her a place to stay in this time of crisis.
