"Willow bud."
Seeing Ye Linxing and the others looking bewildered, Jian Yuelan said calmly, "But that's not the point. The point is that I've heard the name Yi Xiaoren from my great-grandfather."
This relationship is a bit complicated.
Ye Linxing said he needed to sort things out.
Lu Guowei and the others didn't know who Liu Ya was, nor did they know about her great grandfather's great achievements, so they didn't know how to respond.
Just as he was thinking about how to ask, Ye Linxing figured it out.
"If I remember correctly, Liu Ya is the owner of the herbal tea shop."
"Um."
"My grandfather used to work in intelligence, am I right?!"
"No."
Lu Guowei and the others were so shocked that they picked up their teacups and drank the water quickly.
Wow, there are really hidden dragons and crouching tigers in the Jian family. Few people who work in intelligence can escape unscathed and have a good ending.
Most of them died before the founding of the People's Republic of China.
The remaining small part can be divided into two parts. One part either hides their identities and returns to ordinary life, or holds important positions in special departments.
There is also a part of people who went to the other side for special reasons and could not come back.
Needless to say, the old man of the Jian family is the lucky one in this divided part, otherwise Ye Linxing would not have known the old man.
Ye Linxing was completely confused. "How are these people related?"
Jian Yuelan took a pen and paper and started drawing a character map.
"You know about the practice of taking concubines before the founding of the People's Republic of China, right?"
"Know."
Monogamy was only implemented after the founding of the People's Republic of China, but not before.
In that period, not to mention the warlords, even those with slightly better-off families had wives and concubines.
Jian Yuelan wrote about Liu Ya, "Boss Liu has a cousin who is from the third branch of the Yi family. Yi Zhiyuan went to find Boss Liu to recognize her relationship when he returned this time, and he drove to the herbal tea shop specifically. This is something that all the neighbors on North Street know. You can find out by asking."
Lu Guowei continued, "You said before that you didn't know Yi Zhiyuan."
"I don't know him."
Jian Yuelan said confidently, "I wasn't there when he went, but Xiao Ding and the others saw him."
"By the time I found out, Yi Zhiyuan had already passed away. I only heard Boss Liu mention this name when I passed by the herbal tea shop."
Recalling the disdain with which Boss Liu and the restaurant owner Wei Xiaomai spoke of the Yi family, she smiled and said, "Speaking of which, Boss Liu really despises the Yi family."
Ye Linxing and the others didn't say anything, just looked at her thoughtfully.
"Let's talk about Yi Xiaoren now. He has a pretty impressive background."
Her eyes turned cold, and Ye Linxing felt his scalp tingling. Lu Guowei and Cheng Wu were not much better.
The last time she saw her look like this, she slapped the table and broke it, scaring Xue Yi so much that he didn't dare to fart.
Their eyes fell on the table in front of them. They swallowed and prayed silently in their hearts that she would not slam the table.
They really don't want to experience that exciting scene a second time.
So, Lu Guowei poked Ye Linxing with his finger, signaling him to ask questions quickly.
Ye Linxing's mouth twitched as the soft flesh on his waist was poked and it hurt. The saying "birds of a feather flock together" was indeed true for him.
Everyone who was familiar with his wife had learned the One Finger Zentangle technique.
"What's so great about Yi Hyo-in's background?"
"Blue Shirt Society."
Ye Linxing stood up quickly and asked, "Wife, are you serious?"
Lu Guowei and Wu Cheng's expressions suddenly became serious. If they came from the Blue Shirts Society, they would indeed have a lot of problems.
Jian Yuelan breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she had dug up her great grandfather's great achievements from her memory, otherwise she really wouldn't have been able to remember this relationship.
"If you don't believe me, we can call back and ask Grandpa right now."
What the old man hated most was that he didn't stop Yi Xiaoren, but watched him escape from Shanghai.
"beat."
Ye Linxing said firmly that if Yi Xiaoren had this background, there must be something wrong with Yi Zhiyuan.
This is a matter of historical relic, and we cannot be careless. We cannot be too cautious.
"Walk."
So, Jane's mother and her friends, who were playing with their two children and the pet in the yard, saw Jane Yuelan and her friends running out in a hurry to make a phone call.
Father Jane was curious and wanted to join in the fun.
The grandmother who had her eyes closed seemed to have opened her third eye, and she grabbed the crutch and it fell into her hand.
"Xiaoer, try taking another step."
The gentle words, without a trace of anger, frightened Jane's father into silence.
"Child, focus on your work. You should be less curious. People who meddle in other people's affairs don't live long. Do you understand?"
The old lady opened her eyes and stabbed at Father Jane with a dagger-like gaze.
Father Jian sighed, "Grandma, I know, don't be angry."
The two old men didn't dare to speak. They believed that they had seen a lot of the world and participated in many battles. To be honest, they had truly survived a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
Normally speaking, having lived to their point of existence, they might not be fearless, but they are almost there.
But when facing the old lady, they felt uneasy.
It felt quite weird that when the old lady got angry, they got scared too.
But their instinct to seek profit and avoid harm tells them that the right thing to do at this time is to remain invisible.
After glancing at Mr. Jian, the two elders withdrew their gaze and focused all their attention on the two children and the furry child.
The old lady took out her pocket watch and checked the time. "Xiaoer, Doudou is almost done with school. Go pick him up on foot. There's something good going on."
Dad Jane didn't think anything good would happen to him, but he had to listen to the old lady.
He said, "Okay, I'll go pick up Doudou now."
Just walk, as long as the old lady is happy.
I don’t know if his eldest grandson would be happy to see him.
