Chapter 200: Clues Found
Shen Xiaoxiao personally drove Murong Lan home.
"It's here, you can go back."
Murong Lan looked out and pouted, "Why don't you drive the car in, I'm too lazy to go so far, it's so hot, I'm sweating inside." ”
"Didn't you let me walk in by myself last time, why, Miss Murong can't leave by herself?"
"Shen Xiaoxiao, don't be weird, I know you blame me for treating you like that last time, I apologized to you, I'm sorry, okay?"
"Nope."
"Then what do you want to do, you don't have to make an inch."
"You promised me to show me around?"
"Now?"
"Yes, now."
Two minutes later, the two appeared together in the garden of the Murong Mansion.
Murong Lan walked in front with his hands behind him, and said in a heartfelt manner, "For the sake of you taking me in for one night, I will take you on a tour today, and you can go anywhere." ”
"That's what you promised me."
Shen Xiaoxiao took a few steps forward and looked around, "Then let's start from the garden and lead the way." ”
"Hmph, you want to visit my house so much, it's just that you haven't seen anything in the world since you were a child, and today I'll let you see what a wealthy noble family is."
I walked for two hours in a row, and I went to places big and small.
Shen Xiaoxiao watched it for a long time, but he didn't see anything strange, and he didn't get any news.
Murong Lan thought she was just strolling around, "How about it, my family is big, aren't you very envious of our life?" ”
"Not really." She turned and asked, "May I visit your servant's quarters?" ”
"You're going to see the servant's place too? You're really in love. ”
"I want to go."
Murong Lan patted her somewhat sore shoulder, "Then I'll ask someone to accompany you, I'm tired and I'm going back to sleep." ”
"No, you tell me the direction, I'll go by myself."
"Go ahead and turn right, and you'll see a house."
During the day, the servants were at work, so the quarters were quiet, and there were hardly any people.
The Murong family's treatment of the servants is excellent, and most of them arrange two-person dormitories, and the accommodation conditions are even better than those of colleges and universities.
She entered the hall on the first floor, and saw a propaganda board displayed in the middle, and the best servant was selected every week, and there was a lot of bonuses.
"It's pretty good, no wonder the people here look so motivated."
There is a wall next to it, and on the wall is pictures of servants at work.
When Shen Xiaoxiao saw a set of photos in the corner, his gaze suddenly stopped.
The photo shows several workers in straw hats working in the garden, which is a bit old and severely yellowed.
Still, she vaguely saw one of the familiar figures.
"That's uncle!"
Uncle Shen stood in the middle, although it was only a vague side face and back, but she almost recognized it.
She stepped forward and tore the photo straight away.
Uncle really worked here!
Someone walked up not far away, and she hurriedly took the photo into her bag and hid it.
"Miss Shen."
As soon as I walked out of the maid's quarters, a young girl was walking in front of me.
"You're from the old lady's side?"
"Yes, Miss Shen still remembers me, the old lady knows that you are here and is waiting for you in the side hall."
Shen Xiaoxiao didn't want to disturb the old lady, but she didn't expect to be seen.
The fragrance of tea in the side hall is curling, and the crisp sound of teacups touching each other occasionally sounds.
"Grandma Shu."
The old man sitting at the tea table slowly turned his head and smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed into a line, "Xiaoxiao is here, sit down." ”
"Okay." Shen Xiaoxiao walked to the opposite side and sat down.
"Lan Lan's girl was with you last night, didn't disturb your rest, right?"
"It's fine."
"I'm sorry to tell you for that girl, it's because I'm not strict with discipline, and I'm really sorry for you when that kind of thing happened last time."
"Grandma Shu, don't say that, the eldest lady has apologized to me personally, and I have forgiven me."
"I knew you weren't a scheming girl." The old lady poured a cup of tea and put it in front of her, "This is the new tea that arrived today, you can taste it." ”
"Okay."
Shen Xiaoxiao took a sip, put down the teacup and asked, "By the way, there is something I want to ask Grandma Shu." ”
"What's the matter?"
She looked around, then pulled out the photo, "This is one I picked up outside, many years ago." ”
The old lady looked at it and said disapprerovitically, "These are all photos from more than ten years ago, they are all posted on that wall, and they should have been blown out by the wind." ”
"Then this photo is really quite old."
"Yes, these are the first servants to work here, our family just moved here that year, and my grandson reorganized the house a few years ago and wanted to lose these photos, but I was reluctant, so I kept letting them stay there."
She endured the eagerness in her heart, pointed to the figure of the uncle and asked, "Then do you know this person?" ”
The old lady shook her head, "I'm not impressed, what's wrong?" ”
She looked lost and silently took back the photo, "No, I just feel like a relative of mine." ”
"Relatives?"
"Hmm."
The old lady took a sip of tea and asked, "Xiaoxiao, you said before that you were born in Luoxia Town, so what did your parents do?" ”
"None of them work much, and they have a bad relationship with me right now."
"Then how did parents like you give birth to such a good you?"
Shen Xiaoxiao looked at the old lady's kind eyes, and stopped talking.
For a moment, she even wanted to blurt out that she wasn't their biological daughter.
"I saw a birthmark on your back the other day, did you bring it out of your mother's womb?"
"Yes, most people think I have a tattoo, but it's just a birthmark."
As soon as Shen Xiaoxiao's words fell, she felt that the old lady suddenly grabbed her hand tightly.
Why is that?
"Grandma."
Xue Wanning suddenly walked over.
The old lady's face regained her composure and withdrew her hand.
"What are you talking about, talking for so long?" Xue Wanning sat down next to the old lady, put her arms around her shoulders and smiled.
"It's nothing, I just chatted with Xiaoxiao, I'm a little tired, I want to go back to my room to rest."
"Okay, grandma, slow down."
Shen Xiaoxiao watched the old lady leave, did the old lady want to say something to her just now?
Xue Wanning turned to look at her and said, "Miss Shen, if you have time, is it convenient to have a cup of tea with me?" ”
"Yes."
She sat at the place where the old lady had just now, making tea and making tea in the posture of a host.
"Miss Shen shouldn't have drunk such a good tea on weekdays, right?"
"It's fine."
"Is Miss Shen usually busy with work?"
"Okay."
At this time, Shen Xiaoxiao's mobile phone on the desktop suddenly rang.
It was Xiao Yan's call.
