"It's the family of the master who lived here sixteen years ago."

"That lady may have found the wrong one, we only moved here five years ago, and we have no impression of the name Zheng Lanru at all, if the lady wants to find someone, let's find another place."

As soon as he finished speaking, he closed the door in front of him.

Zheng Wan watched the door panel slap on the tip of his nose, and he could feel the breath coming back from the door panel, and the distance formed, standing in place without moving.

It can be said that Zheng Wan has not given up the search for his aunt's traces in the past three months since he woke up.

Finally getting the news and returning disappointed, she felt that she needed to take a break now.

Soon, she swept away the disappointment in her heart, it had been three months, and what if it was a little longer, as long as there was news of her aunt's existence, she didn't believe that she couldn't find it.

Thinking of this, she took a deep breath, turned around decisively, and walked majestically in the direction of Defang City.

But just when she walked to the gate of the No. 9 courtyard, a head suddenly poked out of her inside and asked, "Is it Zheng Lanru that the little lady just asked?" ”

Hearing the familiar name again, Zheng Wan's heart suddenly beat violently, and he looked over to the place where the voice came from with anticipation.

It was found to be an older woman, and it seemed that the other party knew the news of her aunt, so she immediately walked over to ask.

"The lady knows Zheng Lanru?"

"Who is the little lady hers? actually came to Zheng Lanru at this point in time. ”

"If you talk about it carefully, Zheng Lanru should be her aunt."

Hearing Zheng Wan's reply, the other party immediately frowned, and muttered in a little incomprehensible, "Does the woman in the courtyard next door have a sister?" Isn't it alone? The only people I often see at home are husband and wife, even if they are pregnant and have children. ”

Zheng Wan saw that the other party's mouth was moving, but he couldn't hear what the other side was saying, and subconsciously moved his steps closer.

Just as she was about to stand three steps away from the other party, the other party suddenly ended her broken thoughts, raised her head suddenly, and replied with a flattering smile:

"If you're looking for someone who lived here sixteen years ago, you can't ask about the newcomers. That is, only locals like us who have lived here for a long time will know the news that the lady wants to know. ”

After saying that, he immediately raised his eyebrows, revealing a meaningful look.

Zheng Wan understood that he had spent a lot of money during the investigation of his aunt's news, and there was no shortage of this.

He immediately took out five large coins from his cuff and handed them over, asking, "Can you talk about it now?" ”

The other party hurriedly took the money, but his face pursed his lips with some disdain, feeling that Zheng Wan was a little stingy.

But she is in a good mood and doesn't care, and she is also very willing to talk about Zheng Lanru's gossip.

After quickly stuffing the money in his hand into his arms, he quickly spoke:

Speaking of which, Zheng Lanru is still quite unlucky, not long after the child was born, her husband had an accident and raised the child alone. But the good thing is that her master is more kind and directly asks her to work with her children. ”

"She's a subordinate?"

"That's not it, although I bought a house in Changle Fang at a young age and alone, I relied on the owner's reward to buy a house, but it is also a lowly family, and it is still different from ordinary people like us."

When she said this, the woman's face was visibly proud.

And Zheng Wan began to look for his own memory, obviously in his memory, Aya A-Niang only said that she worked in Luoyang, and did not say that she had been a subordinate in any house.

So, she anxiously asked, "Then do you know who the master of her work is?" ”

"Oops! How could Zheng Lanru, such an arrogant and beautiful person, tell us about this kind of thing? ”

said that he didn't know, but Zheng Wan looked at the other party's constantly rolling eyes, and immediately understood that this was something to talk about.

When he was about to stuff himself into the cuffs and stuff all the money he used to buy small things on weekdays, he put all the money into the woman's hands, and said anxiously, "Can you say it now?" ”

"Hahahaha! The little lady is really good, but she is much better than your aunt Zheng Lanru. If she was like you, maybe when she gave birth, the families next to us would still be able to help.

I heard that the name Zheng Lanru was given by the master's family, so the owner's family who sold her into slavery is naturally surnamed Zheng. After conceiving a child sixteen years ago, her husband died, and within two months, the yard was sold. It seems that a few years later, some people said that she was seen going out of the city and returning to her hometown with the main family. ”

"Where's her hometown?"

Chapter 63: Don't Give Up

When the woman heard Zheng Wan's anxious question, she immediately threw her a roll of her eyes and said helplessly:

"This is all sold into slavery, how can it be possible to return to his hometown? We don't know where this Zheng Lanru's hometown is, we guess she should go back to her hometown with the master's family. ”

She looked at Zheng Wan's appearance that she had not yet come to her senses, and lowered her voice and said:

"It's that Xingyang Zheng family, you know? We guess which line of Xingyang Zheng should be a slave under the hands of the Xingyang Zheng family, otherwise the scene would definitely not be so extravagant. I heard that when she left, there were servants on both sides, and the carriage and horses could not be seen, and the old woman had never seen such a ...... in her life."

Zheng Wan pondered the woman's words while observing the other party's expression.

Looking at her wandering eyes, the first words are about 80% true, but the descriptions of the latter scenes are probably added by herself.

How could a slave have such a luxurious farewell party?

Unless she is the concubine of one of the Zheng family's rooms.

But A-Niang's letter did not reveal such a meaning, plus the aunt also gave birth to a son, even if the people of the time were open, it was impossible for the people of the Zheng family in Xingyang to be accepted as a concubine, let alone let her be openly publicized outside.

Zheng Wan felt that he had listened to everything he should have heard, ignoring the pain of being interrupted when the woman was talking about her taste.

said bluntly: "Thank you for telling your aunt about it, don't leave it at that." ”

With that, turn around and leave.

Leaving only the woman who felt that she had not said enough was standing in place, she looked at the back of Zheng Wan leaving, and spat on the ground in disgust.

Then twisted her fat waist and walked to several other families who had been living here with her, and began to talk to Zheng Lanru, who lived here at the beginning, and Zheng Wan, who had just come to Zheng Lanru, thinking that they must be indispensable in the recent period.

Zheng Wan left Changle Fang in despair, and finally got a little information, she didn't expect that she actually fell short.

The two snacks in her hand suddenly became heavy, and she kept dragging her arms down, and for a moment she almost dragged her to the ground.

At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly sounded beside her.

"Be careful!"

looked at it, it was actually the little beggar who told her that she could go to Dongshi Yaxing to find her aunt's information-Xiaohu.

Xiaohu also looked at Zheng Wan helplessly, he really didn't expect that he had changed the position of begging from Buzheng Fang to other Fang City, and he would be able to meet Zheng Wan again.

Thinking that my sister had a good life because of her reward before, so looking at her dejected appearance, it was rare to disregard exposing her position and give a reminder.

It's just that he kept a tense face behind him and didn't say anything in the face of Zheng Wan's scrutiny.

Seeing this, Zheng Wan's originally lost heart suddenly calmed down, looking at Xiaohu, who was still struggling to come here to beg, life must be difficult, and he suddenly felt that it was not sad that he couldn't find his aunt for the time being.

Looking at Xiaohu's eyes were full of pity, and as soon as he raised his hand, he noticed what he was doing.

Thinking that my aunt didn't find it anyway, it was worth giving it to this person who was the first to help, so he put the two bamboo baskets in his hand in front of Xiaohu.

"I'll give you these things."

"Huh! You're ......."

Before Xiaohu could refuse, Zheng Wan hurriedly put down his things and left.

Smelling the fragrance that spreads on the tip of his nose and hits his brain, Xiaohu's voice begins to become uncertain.

My sister likes such delicious food the most, but there are not many opportunities to eat it.

Thinking of this, he took a deep look at the corner where Zheng Wan disappeared in an instant.

I don't know why, after Zheng Wan put down the bamboo basket in his hand, he suddenly felt the loss suppressed in his heart, and it disappeared with the departure of the dim sum.

Thinking back on the process of finding his aunt, he didn't seem to have done much except after looking forward to it and spending money.

It takes years to find her relatives in modern times, and she can't afford to lose faith so quickly.

And now that I have learned the specific news of my aunt, I carefully calculate that Luoyang and Xingyang are both in Henan Province, which is very close to Handong County where they stayed before.

She didn't believe that she couldn't find it for years.

At the same time, she also has a better candidate in her heart who can help her seek - Cui Zhiyun.

I didn't ask Cui Jiancheng for help before, Cui Jiancheng took the initiative to help him find the news of his aunt for the sake of the spicy crayfish.

She believes that as long as she gives a little more benefit. With his aunt's news as a condition, the probability of Cui Jiancheng agreeing will be very high.

Thinking of this, Zheng Wan's originally empty heart was suddenly full of strength, and he felt that he would definitely be able to find his aunt in his lifetime and worship Aya Aniang together.

She kept cheering herself up in her heart, and kept a glimmer of hope in her heart.

When I got home, I cleaned all the areas that I didn't have time to clean yesterday, and immersed myself in hard labor, and I didn't have any extra energy to think about other things.

When Zhao Qingyou came to Zheng Wan to ask for news, what he saw was the picture of Zheng Wan kneeling on the ground, wiping the floor back and forth with a handkerchief.

She asked a little worriedly, "Lady, are you okay?" ”

In the next second, Zheng Wan immediately raised his head, showed a bright smile in the direction of Zhao Qingyou, and replied, "Of course it's good!" Ten years have passed, and a lot of dust has accumulated in the house, and it is time to wipe it clean. ”

After that, look at that posture to continue to kneel and wipe in front of Zhao Qingyou.

Zhao Qingyou hurriedly interrupted: "Didn't the lady say that according to the news, she went to find the news of her aunt?" It's hard to ......"

"Found it! At my aunt's former neighbor's house, I heard the news that my aunt had moved to live in Xingyang, and now I finally have a specific news. ”

When Zhao Qingyou heard this, he knew that he was full of expectations yesterday, hoping to find his aunt today, but today he was disappointed, and Zheng Wan, who learned that his aunt was not in Luoyang but in Xingyang, must have been particularly disappointed.

She chose to ignore Zheng Wan's behavior of constantly wiping the floor in an attempt to hide the disappointment in her heart, and now she is estimated to stay aside and wait silently for Zheng Wan to recover better.

At this time, no matter what she says, it is superfluous, and Zheng Wan has to figure it out by herself.

Thinking of this, she looked around and saw that there was no trace of a fire in the kitchen today.

immediately looked down at Zheng Wan opposite, and silently left to go to the kitchen to start cooking.

Although her cooking skills are simply difficult to swallow compared to Zheng Wan, compared to the fish soup she made for Zheng Wan when she was sick at the beginning, she has made great progress, and it is not a problem to cook some simple meals.

She looked up at the ingredients in the kitchen, and after a few thoughts, she immediately decided on what she wanted to cook.

When Zheng Wan got up from the floor, he staggered and shook his head, seeing the picture in front of him clearly.

Just when her mind was still foggy, she suddenly smelled a fragrance in the air, which faintly woke her stomach, and kept shouting in her abdomen, at this time she felt that her stomach could swallow a cow.

At this time, she remembered that because she was in a hurry in the morning, she didn't eat much breakfast, and now that it was getting late, she had hardly eaten all day.

Then he dragged such a body and cleaned the yard inside and out, consuming the energy of the whole body.

If she doesn't feel hungry like this, she probably has a bad body.
