Facing the servant's extremely surprised look, Xu Lin smiled lightly: "Mum Zhang, long time no see. How is your health?"

Mama Zhang was taken aback for a moment, and said very moved: "It's much better! It's much better..."

It turned out that this middle-aged woman, whom Xu Lin called Zhang Ma, was an old servant who had worked in Xu's family for many years.Counting from when Xu Lin was still in elementary school, Mama Zhang had already entered Xu's house for more than a dozen thoughts.It can be said that she really watched Xu Lin grow up.

Ever since Xu Lin's stepmother came to Xu's house, her mother and son have seen Xu Lin's bullying of Mama Zhang.But due to her own status, Mama Zhang couldn't protect Xu Lin openly.But in her heart, she has always sympathized with this Miss Xu family.

Some time before Xu Lin left home, Zhang's mother temporarily went back to her hometown to recuperate because of her physical illness.At that time, every once in a while, Xu Lin would always call to ask Mama Zhang how her health was.This kind of behavior moved Zhang Ma very much. She made up her mind to try her best to take care of the eldest lady after her recovery.But this wish was not realized in the end.

When Zhang's mother returned to Xu's house, Xu Mao's mother and son had already disposed of Xu Lin's things.This also declared that Xu Lin was officially kicked out of Xu's house by them.

At this moment today, when Mama Zhang saw the eldest lady again, she heard her warm greetings as before.It is conceivable how excited she was deep in her heart at this moment.To be honest, at this time, Mama Zhang really wanted to rush forward and give Xu Lin a warm hug.But the reality is cruel, reason told Mama Zhang that she couldn't do that.

Because the entire Xu family is covered with Xu Lin's stepmother's eyeliner, as long as Zhang's mother acts rashly, those eyeliners will report the situation to their master.

"I must calm down! Don't be impulsive! This is not only for my own good, but also for the good of the eldest lady..." Zhang Ma reminded herself repeatedly in her heart, and then she smiled at Xu Lin somewhat reluctantly.

"Miss, I don't know what you are doing when you come back this time?"

Xu Lin seemed to have expected that Mama Zhang would talk to herself in this slightly unfamiliar manner.So she replied nonchalantly: "It's nothing, I just want to come back and take a look. Zhang Ma, can you let me in?"

After a little hesitation, Mama Zhang nodded, "Of course it's convenient! Please come with me."

"Thank you." Xu Lin curled her lips and was about to step into the house.Unexpectedly, Mama Zhang opened her arms and stopped herself again.

"I'm sorry Miss, I forgot to ask one important thing." Zhang Ma said, turning her eyes to Jiang He behind Xu Lin: "Why have I never seen this lady before? May I ask your name? "

Jiang He smiled slightly: "My surname is Jiang, and I am Miss Xu's colleague and good friend."

"Oh, it's Miss Jiang... I'm sorry. Please come in." Mama Zhang sized up Jiang He, and then put back the arm that was blocking her.

Walking into the living room, the furnishings at home have not changed, everything is still so familiar.It's just that the owner here has changed, and the breath has also changed.This smell that was incompatible with her family made Xu Lin feel extremely sick.

"What? Isn't Madam at home?" Xu Lin asked casually as she walked around.The "Madame" in her mouth, of course, refers to her stepmother.

Zhang Ma nodded and replied: "Yes, Madam went out to play cards early in the morning. If Miss needs, I can call Madam."

"No need, I just came here to take a look. How dare you disturb her old man's mood?" With that said, Xu Lin walked to the center of the living room.On the wall here, there is a portrait of his father.Xu Lin stared at the face on the portrait for a long time, and there was no movement for a long time.

"Miss Xu, is this your father?" Jiang He stood beside Xu Lin and asked softly.

Xu Lin slowly came to her senses, sighed and nodded, "Yeah... time flies so fast. The last time I saw him, it seemed like it happened yesterday. In a blink of an eye, everything is a person. Absolutely..."

Jiang He comforted Xu Lin a few words, hoping that she would not continue to be sad.Seeing Missy miss her father so much, Mama Zhang was not happy.She bit her lip and said with a forced smile: "Miss, please sit down first! I'll go and bring you your favorite coffee."

"No need for Mama Zhang, let's just walk around and leave in a while." Xu Lin said, ready to walk to the second floor.

Seeing this situation, Zhang Ma hurriedly stepped forward and smiled apologetically to Xu Lin: "Miss, I can take you where you are going!"

The moment she made eye contact with Xu Lin, Mama Zhang revealed an important message through her eyes: "Miss, there are still others watching us in this room! Only by pretending to watch you go can I make them put down their suspicions. "

Years of getting along has long allowed Xu Lin to see what Mama Zhang is thinking through her eyes.So at this moment, she didn't hesitate much, and nodded seemingly very naturally: "Okay, then I will trouble you."

So accompanied by Zhang Ma, Xu Lin and Jiang He went up the stairs to the second floor.

"Miss, there are some rooms that haven't been tidied up, so I won't bother you to go in and have a look."

"It's all right, I just want to see my old bedroom. It's all right, isn't it?"

Hearing Xu Lin's question, Mama Zhang nodded with a wry smile: "No problem, it's just that your original things are already..."

Before Mama Zhang finished speaking, Xu Lin raised her hand: "I know, you don't need to say any more."

Just like that, the three came to the end of the corridor on the second floor.He opened the door that hadn't been opened for a long time.

The floor and ceiling of the house are still the same as when Xu Lin lived here.It's just that the furniture and items inside have all disappeared.Xu Mao's mother and son wanted to use this method to completely separate Xu Lin from the Xu family and destroy all her memories here.But no matter how hard they tried, they never thought that there was a connection that would never be broken no matter what method they used.

After entering the room, Jiang He suddenly and gently closed the door.Almost at the same time, Xu Lin stuffed a note into Mama Zhang's hand as fast as she could.

"I want to take away what my father left me, please don't make a sound, please!" After reading the contents of the note, Zhang Ma looked at Xu Lin with puzzled eyes, which meant: "Miss , there is obviously nothing in this room! What can you find here?"

Xu Lin took Zhang Ma's hand and squeezed it with confidence.Then she took light steps, came to one of the corners of the room, bent down and tested the floor with her hands.

A few seconds later, an unbelievable scene appeared to Mrs. Zhang: a floor in the corner was actually moved away by Xu Lin, revealing a hidden space underneath.Immediately afterwards, Xu Lin took out what she was looking for from the hidden compartment.
