Yang Cheng walked to the door and saw Mother Wang sweeping the yard.
Wang Ma raised her head and recognized Yang Chen. After being stunned for a while, she said in surprise, "Young Master? Why are you back? Are you alone? "
After all, she was getting on in years, and the house had been empty for so many days. Although she had a daughter by her side, Mother Wang couldn't wait for the New Year to be over so that the couple could bring Lanlan back to Zhonghai.
Yang Cheng said that he left something at home, so he came back alone. Lin Ruoxi was still in Beijing and everything was fine.
"Wang Ma, will Minjuan be staying with you for the next few days?" Yang Chen asked in a seemingly casual manner.
Mother Wang didn't think much, "Yes, thanks to Minjuan. Guifang went back to her hometown, so she's the only one with me. Otherwise, I'd be bored to death."
"Didn't Qinger spend more time with her mother?" Yang Cheng said with a smile.
Mother Wang scolded, "She's like a child. She doesn't want to play enough. After all, Qinger was still young and always liked to go out.
Miss Choi Yeon of the Cai Family has nothing to do after she resigned. She always takes Qinger out to play. I can't do anything to her. "
Yang Cheng was happy to see this kind of thing. They were all his women, so it would be easier to get along with them in the future.
As they talked, Yang Cheng saw Minjuan was busy in the kitchen. This peasant woman dressed more fashionably after entering the city. Although her clothes weren't high-end, she had the time to dress herself up.
Looking at her satisfied face washing the vegetables, Yang Chen really couldn't imagine, if a woman like her had a conspiracy behind her back, how much darkness around him hadn't been discovered.
"Minjuan," Yang Cheng said.
Minjuan turned around and saw Yang Cheng coming back. She said in surprise, "Mr. Yang, why are you back? Ah, I just cleaned up the breakfast. Are you hungry? Do you want me to cook a bowl of noodles for you? "
Yang Cheng shook his head with a smile. "Come upstairs with me. I have something to ask you. We'll talk about the kitchen later."
Minjuan wiped her hands on her apron in confusion, but she didn't ask any questions. Mother Wang, on the other hand, was confused as to why Yang Cheng was looking for Minjuan.
When they reached the second floor, Yang Cheng gestured for Min Juan to open her door.
Min Juan didn't know what was going on, but she could only comply with the master's request. However, she still felt a little uneasy.
After entering the room, Yang Cheng looked around and found nothing special. He turned around and asked, "Minjuan, when Lanlan's grandfather asked you to take Lanlan to us, did he tell you anything else?"
Minjuan was stunned. She smiled awkwardly and said, "I … don't quite understand what Mr. Yang means."
Yang Cheng's eyes gradually became cold, "You really don't understand?"
Minjuan shook her head with difficulty. Her eyes were a little evasive, "I don't understand …"
Yang Cheng didn't say anything more. Instead, he took out the string of Buddha beads that Song Tianxing entrusted to Lanlan.
Minjuan just glanced at the Buddha beads, and she was stunned. Then, she showed a look of surprise, "Master's Buddha beads!? Mr. Yang, where did you get it? You found Master!? "
"That's not the point," Yang Cheng's voice sank. He said with a hint of anger, "I'm more concerned about the token and letter that uncle asked you to give me. Where are they!?"
Minjuan was stunned on the spot as if she was electrocuted. Her face was a little pale. She knew that Yang Cheng understood what happened. She said with a trembling voice, "Mr. Yang, please listen to my explanation …"
"Where?!" Yang Cheng's voice was like a great bell, and his eyes were wide open!
Minjuan knelt on the ground with a "flop". She burst into tears and begged, "Mr. Yang, please listen to my explanation! I really didn't mean it maliciously. I have my own difficulties! "
As long as Yang Cheng thought that this woman secretly hid Seventeen's relics and didn't let him know that his own flesh and blood was still alive in the world, he couldn't wait to crush her bones and scatter her ashes!
Perhaps between ordinary couples, vows of eternal love and sharing life and death together were just some romantic words of love.
But for people like Yang Chen and Seventeen who grew up together in a pile of corpses and experienced unimaginable hardships, they could still be together in the end, and even gave birth to a fruit of love, this kind of relationship was unforgettable, fusing into their bones and blood. It was truly a relationship that could be protected with everything, including life.
Therefore, this also made Yang Cheng particularly angry. If it weren't for her temperament being restrained in the past two or three years, Minjuan would already be a dead person.
All the bones in his body were cracking. Yang Cheng controlled his hand and slowly retracted the prayer beads. He looked at the tearful Minjuan and asked, "Tell me, what's your reason?"
Minjuan felt as if she was pardoned. She wiped her tears and kowtowed to Yang Cheng three times. Then, she choked and said, "Mr. Yang, you're not an ordinary person. I've stayed in this house for a long time, so I can naturally feel it.
You're the same as master. Both of you are like gods. I'm just a peasant woman from a small village in the countryside. I definitely don't have the guts to go against you. "
"Humph," Yang Cheng sneered, "You don't have enough guts? If I didn't encounter a disaster and coincidentally found my uncle, I'm afraid that I'll be kept in the dark by a peasant woman like you for the rest of my life! "
Min Juan shook her head vigorously. "No, Mr. Yang, please listen to me. What I did was wrong, but I did it for the sake of the family. For the sake of Mr. Yang, Mrs. Yang, and Lanlan. The three of us can live a good life together.
Yang Cheng frowned, "Don't try to fool me with a few words. Do you think I'm so easy to fool?"
"I, Minjuan, wouldn't dare to do it even if I have three heads and six arms!" Minjuan cried and complained, "I'm just a woman who only went to primary school for a few years. I'm farming in the countryside. What's in it for me to deliberately deceive Mr. Yang?"
There was a ripple in Yang Cheng's heart. Minjuan's words were right. Yang Cheng was also puzzled. Hiding all this from Minjuan didn't seem to have any interest in it.
"Then why did you do it?" Yang Cheng asked.
Minjuan tried to calm down and said slowly, "I don't dare to hide it from you. To be honest, the letter that master gave me was accidentally torn because of my carelessness.
I wanted to change the envelope at that time so that you wouldn't think that I peeked at the contents, but I … I couldn't hold it back at that time. When I put the new envelope in, I still looked at the contents … "
Seeing Yang Cheng's cold expression, Minjuan waved her hand desperately and said, "Mr. Yang, I was just too concerned about where master went. He's my savior, my benefactor! I thought that there might be some clues in the letter … but, it turned out to be information about Lanlan's background and a few words that I didn't understand. "
"Where are the letter and dagger?" Yang Cheng asked with a blank expression.
Minjuan suddenly remembered. She got up and ran to the wardrobe. She opened the wardrobe and rummaged through it. Finally, she found two items in a small black plastic bag at the bottom.
When Minjuan handed the two items to Yang Cheng with trembling hands, an indescribable pain and nostalgia flashed through Yang Cheng's eyes. His eyes were fixed on the dagger. His eyes were red and he couldn't speak.
This was a small military dagger wrapped in blue cloth. It was sharp and cold. There were three blood grooves on it. The blood grooves were dark red that was difficult to erase.
After many years of killing, some parts of the dagger had small nicks that couldn't be hidden, which added a bit of killing intent.
It was a dagger that wasn't considered precious, but it caused Yang Chen's eyes to flash with the face that was getting further away from him. Her figure was always as monotonous and lonely as the dagger.
This was the weapon that the woman always carried with her. The beauty was gone, leaving behind an empty weapon.
