"Master, you're looking for me." Jiang Xiaorou walked over.
It's already ten o'clock in the evening! I don't know how many WeChat messages Shen Yancheng has sent, the screen is full of him, and he has made many phone calls. Jiang Xiaorou keeps saying that she is going back and will be there soon, but in the end, she is nowhere to be seen.
Under the starry night.
Jiang Xiaorou and her master walked leisurely along the stone-paved path. A breeze blew through their hair, ruffling it and bringing a cool, night-like feeling.
"Master, what do you want to say?" Jiang Xiaorou asked.
If Jiang Xiaorou just wanted to accompany the master for a walk, could they do it another day? She was in a hurry to go home now.
"You'll know in a moment." Jing Muchen kept it a secret.
"Oh." Jiang Xiaorou nodded.
Then she would wait a little longer.
"I saw you defending Zhou Mengmeng so much just now. Do you really like her and don't mind her background at all?" Jing Muchen asked Xiaorou.
Jiang Xiaorou smiled.
"What's there to mind? Ultimately, it was my dad's fault, and it has nothing to do with Zhou Mengmeng and her mother. In fact, Zhou Mengmeng is quite pitiful. You said Jiang Yufei could have married into the Jiang family and become the second daughter. But Zhou Mengmeng was thrown into the countryside. If her mother hadn't passed away and she had no relatives, she probably wouldn't have come to the city to find her father.
Just now I saw that Zhou Mengmeng's hands were all calloused. She must have done a lot of work. I feel bad for her. Besides, her parents are gone, and now it's just her and me. If even I treat her badly, what hope do you think she has?"
Jiang Xiaorou is indeed kind.
"Xiao Rou, you are so nice." Jing Muchen's palm fell on Xiao Rou's head and patted it gently.
Xiaorou is such a kind girl. Jing Muchen likes her simplicity and kindness. Even though she has been struggling in business for so many years, she has always kept her original intention, which is something many people cannot do.
"Maybe I'm getting old! I don't want to care about those things. If it were in the past, I might have made things difficult for Zhou Mengmeng!" Jiang Xiaorou smiled.
"You say you are old in front of me? Do you mean that the master is older?" Jing Muchen was amused by Xiaorou.
He knew that Xiaorou would never grow up. Even if she really grew old one day, she would still maintain the heart of an eighteen-year-old girl. This was the Jiang Xiaorou he knew.
"Yes, it's old-fashioned!" Jiang Xiaorou suddenly laughed and ran away.
Jing Muchen chased after them directly. The two adults didn't sleep at night and chased each other in the yard. If Shen Yancheng knew about this, he would definitely be jealous to death.
At this time.
The people Jing Muchen sent out returned, and they also brought back two people, two women, who should be related to what happened that year. Jing Muchen and Jiang Xiaorou stopped immediately and returned to normal in a few minutes.
So this is what the master was talking about.
"Master, who are they?" Jiang Xiaorou asked the master in a low voice. She didn't quite understand, but it seemed that she did not understand completely. She felt a little confused.
"I sent someone to Zhou Mengmeng's hometown. These are the two people they brought back. They know what happened that year. But don't be surprised when you hear it later. I think there should be something more important." Jing Muchen said.
"Could it be that Zhou Mengmeng is not my sister, but a fake?" Jiang Xiaorou felt that if this was not the case, then she would definitely have nothing to be surprised about.
"Just ask and you'll know." Jing Muchen gave a look, and everyone else retreated.
The two women did not know Jing Muchen and Jiang Xiaorou, but they were vaguely frightened by their aura. They knelt directly on the ground and did not even dare to raise their heads.
How can you talk properly when you are so scared?
"You just need to answer my questions truthfully, and we won't do anything to you." Jing Muchen said lightly.
"Yes, sir, what do you want to ask?" The woman did not dare to speak rashly.
"Do you know Zhou Mengmeng?" Jing Muchen asked.
The two women nodded at the same time.
"Yes, I know her. We have all watched her grow up since she was a child. She is a very hardworking and diligent girl. Everyone in the village likes her very much." The woman replied.
"How much do you know about Zhou Mengmeng's parents?" Jing Muchen asked again.
Forehead! !
This question embarrassed the two women. They exchanged glances, as if to say, "You tell me, you tell me, or you tell me!" Neither of them seemed willing to speak.
It seems that there must be something here that Jing Muchen and Jiang Xiaorou don’t know, and even Zhou Mengmeng herself may not know much.
"Why don't you be so direct? If you hesitate and don't tell the truth, we may not let you go back safely. But if anyone answers well and satisfies us, the money will be yours." Jiang Xiaorou threw over 20,000 yuan in cash.
Twenty thousand was not a lot for Jiang Xiaorou, just a piece of cake, but for the two women in front of her, it was too much, enough for them to earn for a year, so they naturally wanted to speak.
"I know, I know. Zhou Mengmeng wasn't her mother's biological child at all. She was adopted."
The two women began to answer the questions, each more enthusiastic than the other, fearing that they would not say enough and would not have enough money.
"Tell me specifically, how was Zhou Mengmeng adopted, and who are her biological parents?" Jiang Xiaorou continued to ask. Why did she feel that something was not right?
