When the entourage was about to excuse himself, he saw Hengyu coming over.

"Miss Ji is here!" The attendant stepped forward and saluted, with a slightly uncomfortable face.

Gigi glanced at the woman.

The woman also looked at their master and servant, especially Hengyu carefully from head to toe.

"Does the girl think I'm good-looking?" Hengyu asked with a smile.

The woman was stunned by the question, and for a while she stammered: "The little lady is very good-looking......"

"If the girl wants to do business for a long time, she can read more excerpts and scripts, Yan Langjun likes to hear those twists and turns and bizarre stories the most." Heng Yu suggested as he walked towards the main entrance with the entourage.

"......" was more and more shocked by the little girl's flower girl who saw through the way at a glance.

I thought she was a genuine lady who cut off her wealth, but in fact, she was a noble person who did career planning and customer management for her?

The retinue who led the way was also quite embarrassed.

This little lady Ji always talks and does things differently than ordinary little ladies......

Yan Jin hadn't gotten up yet, but when he heard Heng Yu coming, he still got up from the quilt and dressed.

"What kind of wind actually blew Little Seventeen here?" Yan Jin yawned and came to the hall, looking lazy.

"I have something to ask for—"

"You're straightforward, I'm afraid I don't know that you're a person who can't think of me if you don't need it." Yan Jin sighed for a while and sat down in the chair: "Say, what can I do?" ”

The girl's voice clearly spat out two words-

"Catch the snake."

……

After Hengyu left Yiyuan, he went to Meng's house.

In the east courtyard of the Meng family, the sick lady Wen can only lean on the bedside to entertain guests.

"I didn't prepare well last time, this is a meeting gift for the supply of Ji painters, please smile." Mrs. Wen smiled gently.

"You're so polite." As a member of the official media yamen, Hengyu did not blindly refuse, and acquiesced to Jiji accepting the brocade box.

But she faintly felt that when Mrs. Wen invited her to come this time, it was impossible to just make up for her this meeting gift, otherwise she just needed to send someone to the Hou Mansion.

"After lying in bed for a long time, there is nothing else to do every day except to read the account books." Mrs. Wen looked at Hengyu and asked with a smile, "It's rare to have guests at home...... If the painter is not in a hurry, I wonder if you can talk to me? ”

She was polite and kind, Hengyu smiled and nodded: "The junior is very happy." ”

"I heard that Master Ji was born in a scholarly family and is the granddaughter of Mr. Qinghan, no wonder I thought that Master Ji had a good temperament and ......demeanor when I saw him that day," Mrs. Wen did not have the slightest compliment in her tone.

"Mrs. Wen praised me falsely, I am the worst reading among my brothers and sisters in the family, if you talk about eating, drinking and having fun, I am more proficient."

When the girl speaks, she smiles brightly and her tone is free.

Mrs. Wen was slightly stunned, and said with admiration in her eyes: "The word free and easy is the most rare quality among women in the world." ”

"That big lady must be a free and easy person." Hengyu's eyes were sincere.

This lady Wen is somewhat similar to the A-Niang in her impression.

She felt this way the first time we met, and even more so now.

"When I was young, I was willful, but I could barely deserve these two words, but now I am sick, and my heart is also bound by this disease......" Mrs. Wen's eyes suddenly became a little distant.

It's not the illness that binds the heart, I'm afraid it's an old thing, right?

Hengyu sighed in his heart, and he understood a lot.

When she first came to the door that day, Mrs. Wen said that she didn't know that she was a little girl, so she needed to prepare another gift—so she must have inquired about her origins.

Everything about her is not difficult to ask, including the fact that she was exiled when she was young.

Come to think of it, this is the reason why Mrs. Wen wants to see her.

The outcast girl finally returned home-

Her experience may have given Mrs. Wen, who has been looking for a daughter for many years, some hope.

Even if it is inconvenient to mention her experience out of courtesy, it is also a comfort to see her, and she can roughly imagine this feeling.

Some thoughts are silent, but they are also too heavy and thick to ignore.

Hengyu's gaze fell on the old paper kite hanging by the window.

After a moment, she spoke softly, "The junior has heard about Ling Ai recently—"

As if she didn't expect her to take the initiative to talk about it, Mrs. Wen was surprised, and a bitter smile overflowed at the corner of her mouth: "Yes, there are eleven days, and it will be twenty years." ”

Hengyu thought about it in his heart - it has been twenty years.

Supposedly, it's time to give up.

"If the eldest lady is still looking for someone, the younger generation may be able to try to help a little." She preached without hesitation.

She herself has a stubborn and stubborn temperament, and she has always disliked the word renunciation the most - this time she came to Yingzhou is the best proof.

And the words of persuasion to give up, Mrs. Wen must have heard a lot, and she doesn't have to repeat it.

Now that you have opened your mouth, you have to say something different.

Mrs. Wen was stunned for a moment, and her fingers unconsciously grasped the corners of the quilt: "What does Ji Painter mean ......"

"There are so many people that it's not easy to get a child back. At the beginning, my family tried their best to inquire about my whereabouts, and because of the help of the imperial court at that time, they also found out some doorways that others could not reach, gained some experience, and made some connections that could make Shangli. Hengyu looked at Mrs. Wen and said, "Maybe it can come in handy." ”

After hearing this, Mrs. Wen looked a little excited, and the things she cared about the most were at the moment, so that she couldn't care about anything else: "Master Ji...... Would you really like to help? ”

"It's both personal experience and what you can do, and it should be."

Hearing this, Mrs. Wen's eyes turned red.

Although their Meng family has not given up looking for kites over the years, even if they do their best, the Meng family is just an ordinary businessman, and naturally it is not comparable to the family of high-ranking officials and Confucianism who have taken root in Beijing......

And although General Xiao has also ordered someone to help find it in recent years because of Dazhu, as the Ji painter said, if there is no experience in such things, just by asking and looking for it, no matter how many people there are, it is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack-

It would be great if Kyonaka Yoshiya was willing to help!

Mrs. Wen lifted the silk quilt on her body, and when she got out of bed, she wanted to salute Hengyu.

"Big lady doesn't have to be like this!" Heng Yu hurriedly got up and held the person up: "It's still unknown if it can really help you, I can only try." ”

Some hopes should not be held on too much beforehand.

Mrs. Wen shook her head: "No, no matter what the result is, Master Ji is willing to help, which is a great favor for my Meng family." ”

"Big lady, go back to sit on the couch and take care of yourself." Heng Yu said: "I need to paint a portrait of Ling Ai, and then I need the cooperation of the eldest lady." ”

"Portrait ......" Mrs. Wen was stunned.

The personal mother-in-law beside her sighed and reminded: "Master Ji may not know that my girl was only two years old when she went missing, and even if there is a portrait, it will not be useful at all......"

After all, how can you take a portrait of a two-year-old girl and find a twenty-two-year-old woman?
