Chapter 94 Meeting with Uncle
Zhan Feng drove Xu Yueyao to a house.
"Ms. Xu, your uncle is inside. Please have a good chat with him. I will pick you up in the afternoon."
"Okay, Brother Feng, goodbye."
"Goodbye, Miss Xu," Zhan Feng drove away.
Xu Yueyao pushed the door open with her bag in her hand. Walking across the yard and into the room, I saw a weathered man with gray hair and a hunched back.
Xu Yueyao frowned. Calculating his age, he should be around fifty years old. He looked at least ten years older now.
The man turned around and saw Xu Yueyao, with a look of surprise on his weathered face, "Yaoyao".
Xu Yueyao looked at him, feeling a little uncomfortable, "Uncle, have you eaten?"
"I have eaten. Yaoyao, have you eaten?" He rubbed his hands and asked. Xu Yueyao had always been cold to him before, but now her tone had become nicer when she spoke to him.
Xu Yueyao nodded and said, "I've eaten."
She sat opposite him, and after a moment of silence, she asked, "Is everything okay at home?"
He nodded, but Xu Yueyao still saw his eyes avoiding her, and she knew he was lying. How could having a wife like that be good?
Xu Yueyao had no choice. If he didn't divorce and change, he would suffer the consequences for the rest of his life.
Xu Yueyao took out the photos from her bag and said, "This is a photo of my parents and me."
The man looked at his sister's photo, his eyes moistened, and he nodded. It was Jia Jia, his sister Liu Jiajia, brother-in-law Xu Hui, and three-year-old Xu Yueyao.
"Do you have any clearer photos of my parents or my mother?" Xu Yueyao looked at him and asked.
Liu Jiafu shook his head and looked at her embarrassedly. All the previous photos were thrown away by his wife when she was angry.
"Then tell me about my parents. I have been having nightmares about my mother recently." Xu Yueyao looked at him. This man was extremely cowardly and looked submissive.
Liu Jiafu was a little confused. He rubbed his hands on his legs uncomfortably.
After thinking about it, I told her the long-forgotten matter embarrassedly.
Liu Jiafu and Liu Jiajia, a pair of siblings, lost their parents early and have been dependent on each other ever since.
When Liu Jiafu was young, he worked hard and was not afraid of getting dirty or tired. Liu Jiajia was also smart and capable. Although they had no parents, the two siblings did not live a bad life.
But everything changed after Liu Jiafu got married. His wife became selfish and petty, and there were constant quarrels at home. Liu Jiafu and Liu Jiajia had good personalities and gave in to her, but she became more and more arrogant and rogue. Liu Jiajia couldn't stand it anymore, so he left home to work.
Since then, Liu Jiafu has never heard from her again. It was not until Xu Yueyao was eight years old that someone called him and said that the child's parents had passed away and asked him to pick up the child.
After listening to his words, Xu Yueyao was silent for a while and then continued to ask, "Don't you know what jobs my parents did and where they have been?"
Liu Jiafu thought for a while and shook his head, “When I went to pick you up, I accidentally heard that your father seemed to still owe money, so I didn’t dare to ask and just took you away secretly.”
Xu Yueyao thought for a moment and took out the teardrop-shaped jadeite from her bag, “Did I have any similar jade pendant on me at that time?”
After seeing it, Liu Jiafu nodded and said embarrassedly, "Yes, there seem to be a few small jade pendants and a bracelet. Your aunt exchanged them for money."
When he brought Xu Yueyao home, his wife went through her things. Liu Jiafu clearly remembered that she went out cursing while holding a few things. When he came back, he had some extra money and agreed to let Xu Yueyao live in his house.
Liu Jiafu saw that Xu Yueyao didn't say anything for a long time, thinking that those things were very important to her, "I'll go back and ask, and then redeem them for you."
After hearing this, Xu Yueyao shook her head and said, "No need, don't say anything when you go back, and it's better not to say that you have seen me."
"Why? Yaoyao, did something happen to you? Some time ago, someone went to the village to inquire about you. Is that right..."
"You said someone was asking about me?" Xu Yueyao asked in surprise, "When?"
Liu Jiafu thought for a while and said, "About half a year ago."
Half a year ago? That’s not Zhan Rongxuan. They were already together half a year ago. Who could it be?
Xu Yueyao couldn’t guess who it was, “What did he ask you?”
"They also ask about your parents, where you were born, and whether your parents have ever been to the ancient city."
“So what did you say?
Liu Jiafu was deeply impressed and immediately became alert. "I thought they were here to ask for money, so I insisted that they were ordinary people who were born and raised in the countryside and had never left the village in their lives."
"Will other people in the village tell about it?"
"No, you forgot that everyone in our village is from the same clan and we are very united."
Xu Yueyao felt relieved after hearing this, and she took out two sums of money from her bag.
"Take this money for your own use. There is a card inside without a password. Keep the card and use it for your retirement." Xu Yueyao had read the original owner's diary, as a way of thanking him for his care for the original owner.
Liu Jiafu's eyes were moist. He didn't want to accept these. He felt guilty towards the child, but suddenly his throat became tight and blocked and he couldn't speak.
Xu Yueyao looked at him and warned him again, "When you go back, don't say you've seen me. If that woman scolds me, you don't have to stop her. Just let others know that we don't have a good relationship. If anyone goes to ask about me, just say that we are both born and raised in the countryside, and my parents have never left the capital."
Liu Jiafu nodded and said, "I understand."
Xu Yueyao looked at him. No matter what, she didn't want their family to be implicated because of her background.
*
On the way back, Xu Yueyao sat in the car, looking at the scenery outside, with no idea in her mind.
She suddenly thought of something, "Brother Feng, I remember that you investigated me before, right?"
After hearing this, Zhan Feng couldn't help but cough, "I just went through the process and did a simple investigation."
"Can you show it to me?" Xu Yueyao said excitedly.
"Um……"? Zhan Feng was puzzled and didn't understand why she wanted to see this.
"I can't remember clearly what happened before I went to my uncle's house. I almost forgot what my parents looked like. I want to see them."
"Okay, I'll talk to Young Master Zhan and give it to you." Zhan Feng answered while driving.
"Okay, thank you Brother Feng," Xu Yueyao sat back down and looked out the window.
In fact, she had thought about asking Zhan Rongxuan to help investigate, but this matter was too unknown. If there was any danger, she was afraid of involving him.
Now that he has not fallen in love with An Zhiyi, his ending has changed, and the endings of Chen Di, Chen Yan and Duan Jingyi have also indirectly changed.
She didn't want to push them into the abyss again because of some unknown things.
This is a matter between her and Nangong Ying. She will face it herself and make it clear with her.
Of course, if there is any danger, she will definitely not hesitate to ask Zhan Rongxuan for help, after all, she really values her life.
