Chapter 327 Granny Liu
At Rongguo Mansion, the sky gradually brightens.
Jia Zhu, who had not slept all night, sighed softly when he saw his grandmother rushing back.
"Are you sure it has something to do with Madam Lai?"
Jia Min, who was supporting the old lady, asked him.
"yes!"
Jia Zhu whispered, "Didn't the old lady give Lai Ma a carriage? On the day when the eldest aunt of the East Mansion had an accident, her family's carriage was not at home. Someone returned it early in the morning. Not only that, there are a few strangers in her house recently. On the surface, they are helpers hired by Lai Ma, but in fact, no one knows their true origins."
You really don’t know until you check. Once you check... I really wish time could go back.
"One of them, a man and a woman, followed Madam Lai to the mansion several times."
Jia Zhu didn't look at the grandmother whose face had long lost color, but just lowered his head and said, "The old lady felt sorry for her and sent people to deliver ice several times. On two occasions, the couple followed the ice store manager and went into the ice store to carry the ice themselves."
"Where are they...now?"
The old lady panted, "Where's Madam Lai?"
She trusted her so much.
She gave her dignity, and even though the Lai family had done so many wrong things, she still gave her a house and money for her old age. She also gave her the ability to send Lai Shangrong and his kids to school outside after the Lai family went bankrupt.
Don’t say that Shen did nothing wrong in the Lai family affairs. Even if she did, as a servant, she couldn’t collude with outsiders to betray the family.
"The whole family has been locked up in the woodshed by their grandson."
Not only was he locked up in the woodshed, Jia Zhu also tortured him.
"Madame Lai cried and said that she had no choice. Those people were Japanese."
The old lady who was about to go to the woodshed in a hurry suddenly turned back.
Jia Min was also shocked, "Are you sure?"
"yes!"
Jia Zhu was very upset, "Madame Lai and Lai Shangrong both heard them speaking Japanese."
Lai Shangrong followed him for a period of time when he was a child.
But because he was freed from slavery, when he went to visit his eldest uncle's house, his uncle said, the Jia family was not short of people, so what was the point of having such a person who was neither a slave nor a servant by his side? He thought it made sense and mentioned it to Lai Da when he got back.
Afterwards, because of this, he was called in for questioning by his father and mother.
Jia Zhu knew very well how much his grandmother, father and mother valued the Lai family.
Therefore, he acted first and reported later and went directly to find Lai Da.
otherwise……
"But they don't know where the Japanese are now."
Because of this, Jia Zhu almost beat Lai Shangrong to death.
It’s a pity that the family really didn’t know.
The Lai family used all their brains to steal from the Jia family.
After Lai Shangrong's family fell into poverty, he had no one to support himself and could only get money from Nanny Lai to go to school.
He had the delusion that he could revive the Lai family by studying.
Huh~What are you getting up for again? On this point, not to mention that uncle and elder brother Zhen would not agree, Jia Zhu would definitely not allow it.
Because of the old lady, Nanny Lai may not care how they raise them, but they will never allow them to jump up and threaten the family.
It just so happens that studying costs a lot of money, and all the money that Lai Ma Ma got was spent by them, so the next generation would have no hope of making a success.
Relying on the affection between the two families' ancestors, they temporarily adopted an indifferent attitude towards the Lai family, but they did not expect that this family, if they had no chance, would turn into poisonous snakes.
This series of events made Jia Zhu clearly realize that his indecision had harmed his closest relatives.
It is difficult to manage grandmother Yourong and Nanny Lai in the East Mansion, and it is also difficult to manage uncle. Parents are useless. In this family, he is the one who should take care of grandmother the most.
However, he pretended not to know and every time he saw Nanny Lai, he would always greet her first because she was his grandmother.
He had thought that he would just let go of the old lady who had watched him grow up, and let his grandmother preserve the relationship between master and servant. Now he just wanted to skin her alive.
My aunt-in-law was abducted by the Japanese, and the Lai family can't provide any clues. Is there any possibility of her coming back alive?
"The old woman asked!"
Grandmother Jia couldn't believe that she had raised another poisonous snake.
She slammed her crutch on the ground and hurried to the woodshed.
Jia Min didn't follow immediately, and said with a low sigh: "Let's report to the police!"
The Japanese left a note asking them to raise money, perhaps they would not immediately want to kill my sister-in-law at the beginning.
After saying that he would report to the police, Jia Min ran after the old lady with unsteady steps.
The mother believed in the friendship between her and Aunt Lai, but no matter how strong their friendship was, it could not outweigh the lives of her grandchildren.
Without asking, Jia Min knew that her mother was taking it for granted.
Nanny Lai may be very hateful towards my sister-in-law.
Even if she had the opportunity to find out clues about the Japanese, in the face of huge hatred, she might have chosen to subconsciously ignore it.
When Jia Min chased to the woodshed, she heard Lai Ma's wailing from afar.
Standing in front of the window was Youshi, who did not go to Tiekan Temple because she was pregnant.
Obviously, she also participated in the arrest of the Lai family throughout the process.
…
Here, when Shen Ning heard the noise and wanted to hide, she had no chance.
She was trapped in a pile of firewood by Granny Liu.
When their eyes met, Granny Liu was more frightened than her.
When she sat down on the ground, she still hugged the firewood tightly in a defensive posture, "You, you, who are you?"
"I'm sorry, Auntie, I scared you. It's tiring to walk at night, and the wind is strong. I had no choice but to use the firewood pile to block the wind. I thought I would rest for a while and then leave."
Shen Ning thought about it, but when she was running for her life, she didn't care about anything, but now...
As soon as I got up, I felt several piercing pains in my feet that could not be ignored at all.
"Hiss~"
Shen Ning sat down again in pain.
"You hurt your foot."
With the faint morning light, Granny Liu finally saw Chen Ning's appearance clearly.
There is a faint slap mark on the left side of this woman's face, which is swollen. Did she get beaten and run away from home overnight?
Anyway, as long as it's not that thing called ghost, she is not afraid.
Granny Liu calmed down, dropped the firewood, and when she got up, she came to help Chen Ning as soon as possible, "Let's go, since you have come to my house, it is fate. Let's take a rest and drink a cup of hot water before leaving."
There is no tea in her house.
However, farmers don’t have so many requirements.
"Thank you very much, Auntie."
I met a kind person.
Shen Ning was relieved, "My last name is Shen, you..."
"Then I will be bold and call you Madam Shen."
Granny Liu smiled and helped her to sit in the kitchen. "My last name is Liu, and everyone calls me Granny Liu. Please sit down first. I'll boil some water."
She quickly ran out to get some firewood.
But Granny Liu? Shen Ning's expression was a little strange.
Zhou Rui and his wife were both killed in prison, and Wang Shi also died. What she was most worried about was that Liu Laolao would not be able to find anyone at the Jia family and would have to return empty-handed.
this……
Shen Ning watched the old lady quickly start boiling water, and then said, "Excuse me, grandma. I left at night last night and I don't know the direction. May I ask how far it is from here to the capital? Is there a bus to the capital?"
"There are cars, there are cars."
As Granny Liu added more firewood to the stove, she said, "But we won't leave even if it rains."
It's drizzling outside at this moment.
"It's only about thirty miles from Beijing."
As she said this, Granny Liu glanced at Chen Ning's feet, "It's easy if you have a car, but if you don't have a car..., it's not easy for you to walk!"
"Alas~"
Shen Ning sighed.
She had to leave, even if it meant stabbing her.
"Can you please go talk to the guy who owns the car? I'm willing to pay double, no, triple the price."
Shen Ning is rich.
Although I have been a money-giving boy several times since I came here, the rewards are higher.
If she wasn't afraid of suspicion, she would be willing to pay ten times, or even a hundred times, the price just to return to Beijing.
"Okay, I'll go and help you talk to him in a moment."
Granny Liu's eyes lingered on her swollen left cheek for a moment, and she readily agreed, "Madam Shen, are you going to Beijing to seek a relative?"
He doesn't look like someone who can take a beating! This one has delicate skin and tender flesh.
And the baggage skin is better than the clothes she is wearing.
"Yes!"
Shen Ning nodded, "I have a younger uncle who works in Ningguo Mansion."
When talking about Ningguo Mansion, she glanced at Granny Liu for a second longer.
"Ningguo Mansion?"
As expected, Granny Liu's eyes suddenly lit up and she said with a smile, "Is it the Ningguo Mansion with two Duke's Mansions?"
“Yes, yes!”
Shen Ning nodded quickly, "Grandma knows too?"
She really wished she could say that she was related to the Rongguo Mansion next door!
"Oh, we are destined to be together!"
Granny Liu laughed immediately.
Life was becoming increasingly difficult for her son-in-law's family, and although she wanted to help, she couldn't find a way.
As the saying goes, a poor man has low aspirations.
Being a poor relative and asking for money is not a good thing, but even a single hair of the other person is thicker than their waist.
If this can change the lives of her son-in-law's family, she is willing to give up her old face.
"My son-in-law's surname is Wang. His ancestors were officials in the capital, and they are related to the second wife's family in Rongguo Mansion."
"Yeah?"
Shen Ning smiled.
It was indeed the Granny Liu she had always wanted to find but had been hard to find. "That would be great. Why don't we go to Beijing together? We are relatives, so we need to visit each other more often to become close."
"…Alas, it's not that we don't want to leave, but our family has fallen into such a state."
Although she had had this idea in mind for a long time, she was far from at the end of her rope.
Even if she wanted to persuade her son-in-law to get rid of this relative, it would not be easy.
"The royal family still has three poor relatives."
Shen Ning waved her hand and said, "Even if it's not easy for you, grandma, to go to Rongguo Mansion, you can go to my uncle's door."
In her heart, Jiao Da has long been her dear uncle.
"My uncle once saved the old Duke of Ningguo on the battlefield, and he is still the instructor in Ningguo Mansion."
She couldn't say who she was, but she would definitely say Jiao Da, "He is the most hospitable person. With his help, it will be much easier for grandma to find relatives in the Rongguo Mansion next door."
Wang Shi is gone, but Wang Xifeng is still here!
She is the one who should really help Granny Liu.
Granny Liu was indeed moved.
It is obvious at first glance that this Miss Shen is not a farmer.
"That's a good feeling!"
The water was boiling, so she put a bowl of boiling water in it for her. Granny Liu then hurriedly brought her foot basin and said, "You walked all night, so you should feel better if you soak your feet in hot water."
"Thank you, grandma!"
Shen Ning grinned and took off the socks that were sticking to her skin, "I've never walked such a long way."
"Alas~"
Seeing that she looked like she was being abused, Granny Liu felt inexplicably sympathetic and said, "It's hard to be a woman, but it's better to have your mother's family, relatives and friends to rely on."
I just hope her uncle is as good as she says.
Otherwise, at the age of sixty or so, is it possible for him to go back in disgrace? “Does Madam Shen have any children?”
"Yes!" Shen Ning smiled, "I have a son and a daughter, and my grandson is already quite big. He can get married in a few years."
"Do they know you want to vote for my uncle?"
"Don't worry, they will know."
Shen Ning sighed softly in her heart.
That whole day and night, she didn't care about how Jia Zhen and the others were doing.
How anxious they would be if they couldn't find her!
"Actually, men are also afraid of being beaten."
The socks were black, mostly from blood.
It is obvious that it is not easy for Madam Shen to get here.
Granny Liu said cryptically, "Since your uncle is the coach, it's OK for him to beat people up."
"Um!"
Shen Ning knew that she had misunderstood.
But it is rare to be reminded like this.
"So, I'm going to find my uncle!"
The Japanese pirates should all die.
Shen Ning smiled and said, “He will definitely help me.”
At this moment, Jiao Da didn't know how busy he was.
To the old man, home safety has always been the top priority.
However, she was stolen without anyone noticing, despite the three layers of protection inside and outside...
Shen Ning suspected that there must be a ghost in the family.
The identity of this traitor is not low.
Jia Zhen is confused. Rong'er has not grown up yet, and Youshi is pregnant and not at home. The family can only rely on the old man.
"It's time to find it!"
What kind of man is he who beats a woman? Granny Liu raised her hands and feet in agreement, "Sit down first, I'll get a needle, and I'll pick out the bubble."
“Hey~”
Shen Ning nodded.
With Aunt Liu, she can finally relax for a while.
Grandma Liu went to her room to get a needle for her. After thinking for a while, she also took out a small bag of rice and flour to improve the food for her grandchildren.
No matter how poor your family is, you cannot let your relatives go away with empty stomachs when they visit you.
The needle was given to Shen Ning, and she washed her hands again before boiling water again to make breakfast.
At this time, although it was raining outside, it was obviously brighter.
Nami Kuroiwa was so furious that she called Takao Nagayama and others, and the group finally found the lost basket.
Changshan Jingfu looked at the tree, then looked at the nearby road, and was stunned.
Matsuyama Osamu, who is afraid of ghosts, is not much better.
This tree is not far from the roadside!
It was so hot during the day, and he searched desperately, but every time, he was seen by Shen.
But she's gone now...
"It's been so long, she must have figured out our approximate location."
When everyone looked over, Kuroiwa Nami gritted her teeth and said, "She definitely won't go where we are. There is only one possibility, which is to go in this direction."
She pointed to the other end of the path.
She was also very tired that night, but no matter how tired she was, she had to persevere.
You can't let yourself be made a fool of by others again and again.
"There are snakes in the woods. To be safe, she won't go through the woods. Follow this path and chase her. Once you catch up with her, break her legs first."
Only when you get sick do you realize how good your health is. A cold feels like a tribulation, even your fingernails hurt.
The seasons change and the temperature is uneven. Everyone should pay more attention to their health on a daily basis. Don’t be too greedy for coolness. Don’t be too greedy for coolness. Don’t be too greedy for coolness. I must say this three times because it is important. . .
