Chapter 47: Checking into the Courtyard
"Did you take us to the wrong place? How come this is the servant's room?"
In her previous life, after she returned to the Ji family, Ji Yanting specially arranged for her the largest room with the best lighting. Not only was it fully furnished, but there was also a refrigerator and an electric fan. However, this room was not only small, but also dark. In addition to a bed and a closet, there were only two stools. How could she live in this room?
"This is what the old man ordered. The old man also ordered that the young lady should do her own things in the future, including buying groceries, cooking, and washing clothes." said the servant.
Zhou Yu became more and more angry as she listened. She stomped her feet and walked towards Ji Yanting's study.
"Young lady, where are you going?" The servant hurriedly stopped Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu pushed the servant who was blocking her away and said, "Get out of here. I want to go find my dad." She didn't believe that Ji Yanting would not care about what Master Ji did to her. She had to ask for clarification. She
rushed to Ji Yanting's study room angrily and rushed in without even knocking on the door. The guards wanted to stop her but it was too late.
"Dad, I have something to ask you."
Ji Yanting raised his head unhappily, with a powerful look in his eyes, "Why are you so unruly?"
Zhou Yu was immediately like a deflated ball after being suppressed by Ji Yanting's aura. She pursed her lips and shed tears of grievance, "Dad, Zhao's mother bullied me. She took me to the servant's room and said that I have to do everything by myself in the future. She said that these are all ordered by grandpa."
"Since it is your grandpa who ordered it, then you just do it."
"Why?" Zhou Yu was puzzled. She is his daughter now, shouldn't he hold her in his hands like a treasure? This is how he treated her in his previous life, giving her all the best.
"I still need to confirm your identity. Your second brother said that there is a technology called DNA paternity test abroad. After you and I do the DNA paternity test, I will naturally give you all the best. Your second brother will be back the day after tomorrow. You just have to bear with it for a few days."
Zhou Yu was struck by lightning. Doing a DNA paternity test, wouldn't she be exposed? What should she do? She finally became the eldest daughter of the Ji family, and she didn't want to lose it all.
"What's wrong with you?"
"No, it's okay. I'll go out first. You should go to bed early." Zhou Yu walked out of the study absent-mindedly.
Ji Yanting withdrew his gaze lightly and continued with the things in his hands.
Zhou Yu returned to the room and wandered around the room anxiously and uneasily. Why is this life different from the previous life? Many things have changed. Is it because of the butterfly effect caused by her rebirth?
Zhou Yu kicked the chair impatiently and grimaced in pain.
No, she had to find a way, she couldn't just sit there and wait for death, it seemed that her plan had to be brought forward.
Zhou Yu walked out of the room, tiptoed to the living room downstairs and made a phone call.
After several days of renovation, the yard was finally habitable, and Ling Yao and Ling Xuemei moved in with their luggage early in the morning.
"Yaoyao, are we really going to live here in the future?" Ling Xuemei had heard a lot of legends about this yard from the neighbors these days, and she was a little worried.
Ling Yao put the clothes into the closet, "Mom, those rumors are all false, where do ghosts come from in this world?" She came here every night for the past two days, and except for the first day, she never encountered those things again, which made her sure that her space had the effect of purifying souls.
Ling Xuemei walked forward and opened the window, and saw the scenery of the backyard. There was a large open space in the backyard. Because no one had taken care of it for a long time, the open space was full of weeds. There was a small river next to the open space. The river was winding, and the water surface was sparkling.
A breeze blew by, and several poplar trees on the shore gently brushed the water surface, as if whispering to the river, and seemed to be dancing with the wind.
"The scenery here is so beautiful! What a pity..." Ling Xuemei shook her head and sighed. She really likes this place. She can grow some vegetables and herbs in the backyard, and she can also open a clinic here. Such a nice yard is wasted.
After sorting out the luggage one by one, the two did not finish until almost noon.
"Ling Yao." Li Ling hesitated at the door for a moment, gritted her teeth and walked in. There is nothing to be afraid of, it is daytime now.
Ling Yao came out when she heard Li Ling's voice, "Didn't you go to the hospital today?" Every morning Li Ling would go to the hospital to bring meals to her mother.
"My mother will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow. I came to see if you can help with anything." Li Ling had just returned from the hospital. She took a rest for a while and had to go to work at the state-owned hotel later.
"We're done. Go back and call Xiaolan and Xiaogang to come to my house for dinner."
"No, I'll go back after you're done. I have to go to work later." Li Ling said, then turned and left.
Ling Yao retracted her gaze and walked towards the kitchen.
It was quiet at night.
Ling Xuemei tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep. She was worried that the rumors were true and that there were dirty things in this house, but she didn't hear any sound except the sound of the wind outside. Her
eyelids gradually became heavy, and Ling Xuemei fell asleep unknowingly, and slept until noon.
Ling Xuemei glanced at the time, got up quickly, and prepared to go to the kitchen to cook. When she walked into the kitchen, she saw that breakfast was already cooked in the pot, and there was a note left on the table.
Walking forward and picking up the note, Ling Xuemei smiled when she saw the words on it. The note was left by Ling Yao, who went to school early this morning.
After breakfast, Ling Xuemei planned to go to the nearby vegetable market to buy some vegetables to cook for Ling Yao in the evening.
As soon as she walked out of the door, she saw several middle-aged women standing not far away and chattering.
Seeing her come out, Aunt Ma walked over, "Sister, did you sleep well last night? Did you hear any strange noises?"
"No, I slept very well yesterday."
"Is there really nothing dirty?" Aunt Wang walked forward, with obvious disbelief on her face.
"There is really nothing." Ling Xuemei said affirmatively. At first, she thought she would encounter something shady, but after a night, everything was quiet and nothing happened. It seemed that the rumors were not to be believed. Seeing that they could not get
any information, they stopped asking. After all, they were not the ones living in this house.
Ling Xuemei chatted with the others for a few words, and walked towards the nearby vegetable market with a basket.
After walking a few steps, she saw a person lying on the side of the road. She was holding her chest with a painful expression. It was obvious that she was having a heart attack.
Ling Xuemei quickly threw away the basket in her hand, rushed forward quickly, and gave the other person first aid.
Seeing this, the people around also gathered around.
"Isn't this Director Zhang from the neighborhood committee? What happened to her?"
"I heard that Director Zhang has congenital heart disease. It should be a heart attack."
"Let's call an ambulance."
