"Master!"
The old butler came out of the Baishou Building and saw Dongfang Rui standing there alone. He was shocked. Did Su Li leave?!
"Wu Bin, why didn't she give me a chance to talk? Why did she leave alone?"
The old servant called 'Wu Bin' was startled and immediately comforted, "Master, maybe she really isn't your daughter. When that person left, no one knew that she was pregnant. Later, when the corpse was sent here, although this fact was discovered, no one knows whether your daughter … is still alive in this world!"
Dongfang Rui was expressionless. He spread out his right hand and asked, "What about the jade pendant? How do you explain this jade pendant? "
"This …"
The old steward sighed in his heart. "Maybe that girl picked up the jade pendant somewhere and kept hearing about you from somewhere, so she came to try her luck. Maybe she's playing hard to get. Master, you must be calm!"
Slap!
It was another slap. Dongfang Rui was angry and said, "Bastard! Back then, you stopped me, and now you're disturbing my thoughts. Do you really want me to be childless and live this life?! "
"Of course not! Master, I also hope to find Miss … "
The old butler covered his face and hurriedly explained. It was because of his guilt that he gave up a bright future in the Imperial Palace and was willing to be an old servant of Dongfang Rui.
In these years, even if Dongfang Rui often beat and scolded him, he had no complaints.
Because back then, when he personally brought that person's corpse back, he understood that he would never be able to repay the debt he owed in his life.
…
"… Master, did you see half of the jade pendant on the road?"
Su Zipei walked to Dongfang Rui step by step. She was dirty all over and said with a pitiful cry, "I lost the jade pendant my mother left to me."
It was her!
The old butler was shocked. It was the little girl he met on the road.
Dongfang Rui looked at Su Zipei who was crying. He suddenly opened his eyes and asked, "What's your name?"
Su Zipei was confused, but she still replied, "My name is Su Zipei."
Her surname was Su again …
Dongfang Rui was completely confused. Which one was his daughter?
"My jade pendant!"
Su Zipei suddenly saw a corner of the jade pendant in Dongfang Rui's hand. Her eyes lit up and she seemed to be alive. She grabbed it and ran away.
"This child's upbringing …"
Dongfang Rui felt disgusted. But he thought that if his daughter really lived alone in these years and no one taught her the truth of life, it was understandable that she became like this.
However, deep in his heart, Dongfang Rui still hoped that Ling Li didn't lie. After all, Su Li was more like him.
"Master, leave this matter to this old servant. This old servant will definitely investigate the origins of these two ladies."
Dongfang Rui nodded slightly. Suddenly, he felt that the world was spinning and he couldn't stand steadily. The butler was so scared that he hurried to hold him.
Pushing away the butler, Dongfang Rui waved his hand and said, "I'm fine. I'm just a little tired. Go back."
"About the auction house —"
When the butler asked about the business, Dongfang Rui had already stepped into the sedan. His voice came from the sedan, "Let Commander Hu handle it. Except for the jade pendant, don't worry about anything else."
"Yes, Master."
After the sedan left, Commander Hu received the message from the butler. He immediately laughed loudly and said, "Commander Wu, leave it to me. I haven't seen you for many years. How are you?"
The old butler hurriedly waved his hand and said, "What commander? I have resigned my position for more than ten years. Now I am just an old servant of the Master."
"Commander … Senior Wu, why did you do that?"
Commander Hu sighed. The old butler shook his head and said, "I made a mistake. The Master is not in good health. I will go back to take care of him. Go ahead with your business."
Seeing the old butler hurrying away, Commander Hu had mixed feelings in his heart. At that time, he was just a bodyguard of Wu Bin. If it weren't for Wu Bin's appreciation, he would not be the commander of the Royal Guards.
"It's true that the world is changeable …"
Hu Dadan sighed in his heart. He put down the meat in the square and strode to the Baishou Building.
Ling Li crouched by the window on the seventh floor and watched the whole process. There were many thoughts in his mind. When he figured out the cause, a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes. When Su Li was bullied by the Su Family in the Dasu Town, he never doubted Su Li's origin.
In other words, he was fascinated by Su Li's hardworking attitude.
Today, the jade pendant obviously had a story, and it was likely that Dongfang Rui met the right person by accident.
"Ling Qinglan has recovered recently. He has nothing to do, so he asks me for errands again and again. Haha … Now I have a problem."
…
It was easy for the Lord Rui's Mansion to investigate the origin of Su Zipei and Su Li. In just one afternoon, Wu Bin found out the details of the two.
"The two girls are sisters?!"
Wu Bin was shocked when he got the result. So … Would the Madam give birth to twins?
No!
Before getting the exact news, it was better not to make the Master too excited.
"Tell the servants not to tell the Master. I will change clothes and go out. You guard the Lord's Mansion."
Most of the guards in the Lord Rui's Mansion were Wu Bin's guards. Because of what happened in those years, he took great pains to strengthen the defense force of the Lord Rui's Mansion. The elite force left in the Lord Rui's Mansion was even more than a group of people around Hu Dadan.
After changing into the official uniform of the Ministry of Revenue, Wu Bin looked at himself. After confirming that he didn't miss anything, he flashed to the Su Family's Mansion.
At the same time, Su Zipei returned to the Lord Rui's Mansion. When she came to Zhu Yan's room, she found that the mysterious masked woman was also there.
Zhu Yan was full of excitement. She held Su Zipei's hand and said, "Zipei, your chance finally comes. My painstaking efforts are not in vain!"
Su Zipei stared at her mother blankly. She hadn't recovered from the thrill today.
Knock, knock —
Wu Bin knocked on the door of the Su House. The gatekeeper opened the door with a puzzled look. When he saw an official, he immediately became respectful, "What can I do for you, Lord?"
Wu Bin pointed to the register in his hand and said with a smile, "Is Lord Su at home?"
The gatekeeper shook his head and hurriedly opened the door, "Master has been busy and hasn't returned for many days. Lord, please come in and wait for a moment. I will invite the Lord out."
Wu Bin nodded. After being led to the main hall of the front house, the gatekeeper trotted all the way and disappeared in the yard path.
Wu Bin looked at the architectural style of the Su Family and found that although the Su Family was an unknown small family, the layout of the yard was also unique. The foster mother of the miss … should be a well-educated and reasonable woman. In this way, it was more likely that Su Li was the daughter of the Lord.
At this moment, there came a sound of footsteps.
Wu Bin quickly got up and saw Su Huanli hurrying over. Wu Bin cupped his hands and smiled, "Lord, please forgive me for not going out to welcome you. My son hasn't returned yet. May I ask your name and why do you visit my house? "
Wu Bin nodded and said the excuse that he had thought before, "It doesn't matter if Lord Su is not at home. I am an inspector of the Ministry of Revenue. My surname is Wu. Lord Su moved here and the Su Family has not been registered yet. So, I come here to register for the Su Family."
"I see!"
Su Huanli smiled and bowed again and again, "Lord, you work so hard at night. It's really hard for you. I will call my family members to come here and cooperate with you to register. "
"That's good!"
Wu Bin was relieved. Su Huanli was simple-minded and quite easy to deal with.
Before long, Mam. Su-Cui, Zhu Yan, Li Yuelian, Su Qinghao and Su Zipei all arrived, except Su Li. When Wu Bin saw Li Yuelian and Zhu Yan, he secretly thought that there were two madams in the Su Family.
"Su Huanli, forty-two years old, from the Dasu Town of Qinghe Province …"
"Zhu Yan, thirty-nine years old, from the Dasu Town of Qinghe Province …"
"Li Yuelian, thirty-eight years old, from the Dasu Town of Qinghe Province …"
"Su Qinghao …"
Wu Bin was patient and finally waited for Su Zipei.
"Su Zipei, ten …"
When Su Huanli was about to say the information of Su Zipei, Zhu Yan jumped out at this time and said with a smile, "Lord, let me do it. Zipei and Li are both my daughters. I know their ages best."
Su Huanli felt it was reasonable. To be honest, he remembered the ages of his two sons, but he didn't know how old the two girls were. He only knew that they were at the age of marriage.
Wu Bin raised his head and looked at Zhu Yan. Since Su Li and Su Zipei were both her daughters, she must be the foster mother of the miss.
The year when Madam ran away was seventeen years ago. She was pregnant for ten months and was born. The miss was sixteen years old. It would be best if there was a difference in age.
"Su Zipei, sixteen years old, was born in the Qinghe Town …"
"Su Li, seventeen years old, …"
Wu Bin stopped writing and raised his head with his eyes shining, "Is it true?"
Zhu Yan was scared by Wu Bin's sharp eyes and stepped back a few steps. She nodded without hesitation and said, "Of course. It's just the information of my two daughters. I dare not deceive you."
"What about the birth information? Tell me the birth information of your two daughters! "
Zhu Yan's expression changed slightly. Of course, she remembered Su Zipei's birth information, but it couldn't be used. As for Su Li's … She didn't remember it and couldn't tell it.
Zhu Yan's reaction made Wu Bin think that he got the key.
The woman couldn't tell Su Zipei's birth information. It was clear that Su Zipei was the child Zhu Yan picked up!
It seemed that Zhu Yan had kept this information for many years alone, and even Su Huanli didn't know it. No wonder that he couldn't find the Su Family when he thoroughly investigated the Qinghe Province.
Great, the miss was still alive!
For a moment, he looked at Su Zipei with gentle eyes, but he didn't know that behind the latter's ignorant expression, there was a restless and ecstatic heart.
Turning around, Wu Bin became more respectful. He bowed to Zhu Yan and said, "I just asked casually. Since you don't want to answer, forget it. My master will visit you tomorrow. I hope Madam Zhu and your daughter Su Zipei can make preparations. "
"What preparations?"
Su Huanli was confused and panicked. Why did the official's master come to visit when he just asked some basic information?
Upon hearing this, Wu Bin let out a clear laugh and said, "Presumably, Madam Zhu already knows the specifics. This old servant thanks Madam Zhu for raising Young Miss for so many years."
Then he bowed deeply and left the mansion. He disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"Yan, what … what's going on? What does Madam Su-Cui mean? "Mam. Su-Cui was confused, but she still asked with a happy face.
After the Lord asked about Su Zipei and Su Li, his attitude to Zhu Yan immediately became extremely good!
It must be a good thing!
"Alas …"
