Chapter 220 Checking the Family Tree

I pointed in the direction of the Shen Mansion and expressed my doubts. Although I also wanted to be a nouveau riche, I didn't mean to look down on nouveau riche.

But the Shen family's connections and money are not comparable to those of a nouveau riche. And look at Mr. Shen's temperament, they are not like that at all.

"Then check the relationships in his previous family. Maybe there is something hidden there."

"It feels like a marriage arranged by imperial decree. It turns out that this sister is Mr. Shen's lover. It must be just this trivial matter." I boldly expressed my thoughts, which were not without basis.

The respect between Mr. Shen and Mrs. Jiang is really outrageous. If you don't know, you might think they are just talking about work. They don't look like a couple at all.

"Maybe they are just so self-disciplined." I felt relieved to hear Golden Pig's innocent words. This is a pure land that has not been polluted. It's a good thing, a good thing, I touched Golden Pig's little head.

I was still a little happy in my heart, but the current situation really didn't allow this simple speech, "I think it makes sense, but let's listen to what Nannan has to say."

I was afraid that Jinzhu would be too disappointed, so I held him and looked at Nannan who was standing beside me. I wanted to see if this little guy who was deeply influenced by me would have a more active mind. Nannan did not disappoint me.

"Then why not think of a way, look at Mr. Shen's family tree, look at Mr. Shen's father, maybe we can get some clues." I put down the golden pig and applauded Nannan, this really made sense.

"However, this family tree must be hidden or in the ancestral hall. How can I just flip through someone's family tree like this?" Reason? Reason disappeared the moment I came into this world.

Anyway, it's a family tree, and my sister is also listed in the family tree. I'm just checking whether my sister's name is written correctly. There shouldn't be any problem with it. Hehe, after making up my mind, I still have to go back to the Shen Mansion.

It's better to live in the Shen Mansion. Anyway, the big trouble Shen Jing is not here, and everything else is just a small matter. I really can't get rid of the relationship with the Shen Mansion. This is really annoying. Oh, God, please kill me with a knife.

I was still helplessly fantasizing that as soon as I went out, I would be struck by lightning, and then I would return to the real world. This idea was good, but what if the lightning struck me and paralyzed me on one side of my body?

Looking at my legs, forget it, it's more important to have healthy limbs. I'm not ready to become a disabled person. I haven't shown off my long legs properly, and I haven't hooked up with any handsome guys yet.

It's all over like this. I don't agree at all in my heart. No matter how much I fantasize, it's just fantasy. I still have to accept the reality in the end. I have to go to Shen's Mansion anyway, so I might as well wait for Hongdou to come back and go together.

I could also agree with what that silly girl said. When Hongdou came back and came to my room, looking at her tired appearance, I really couldn't bear to say that we had to move out again.

Thinking about the several times of moving back and forth, it didn't take much effort on my part, but it was hard for Hongdou, who had to carry large and small bags of things back and forth, "Miss, are we going to live in the Shen Mansion?"

While I was still thinking, why not go by myself and leave Hongdou here, Hongdeng asked first. Listening to her excited tone, it didn't sound like she didn't want to go.

"Ah, yes, how did you know?" My thoughts were now written on my face. I touched my face and looked at myself in the mirror. No, I was still as beautiful as a flower, not a single word.

"I just met a servant beside Master Shen at the door. He held the blueprint and asked me if the plaque looked good." Hongdou said, and took out the blueprint from his chest and showed it to me. I get a headache when I see this kind of thing.

I waved my hand and let Hongdou make the decision herself. After all, she would be the shopkeeper soon, so she should have some opinions of her own.

Seeing that Hongdou looked a little discouraged, I said, "Why not bring two more people with you? It will be more convenient when moving things." After thinking about it, I decided to reduce Hongdou's pressure. This guy likes to do things himself too much.

This is great, but it’s only great for me when I’m taking care of people. “Who are you looking for?”

Seeing Hongdou's puzzled tone, I was the first to feel strange. "Moving luggage?" I started to explain. I don't know if I was overthinking it, but I said it anyway.

"Oh, no thanks." When Hongdou heard me say this, she waved her hand indifferently, sat down and poured me some water, saying that she felt that she would have to move things around frequently in the future, so she simply prepared double portions of everything.

It is much more convenient to move back and forth like this. Looking at Hongdou's eyes full of wisdom, I really want to praise her. I raised my eyebrows and suddenly remembered that this guy should not know how to use the room yet.

That just happened to connect with the words of the little girl next door, "Go to the Shen Mansion to see Mr. Shen. He has sent so many things, and Madam Jiang hasn't come back yet. Go and take care of her."

I admire myself for saying this, a good woman full of filial piety, "Hey, isn't Mr. Shen back?"

"Oh, that guy is just a dandy boy. It's good enough that he didn't piss off his father to death. How can we count on him? Speaking of Ling'er, cough cough cough, Hongdou should go and pack up. We are ready to leave."

Sometimes speaking too quickly is not a good thing. When talking about Ling'er, I noticed that Hongdou's expression was not right. I quickly sent her away. Go earlier, go earlier.

All the things were weighing on my mind, and I always felt depressed and uncomfortable. When I walked to the door of Shen's house, I felt even more uncomfortable. I gritted my teeth and went in. After asking around, it turned out to be just as I guessed.

Mr. Shen has been managing the store's affairs for the past two days and has been coming back very late every day. Seeing that it was almost time for dinner, he deliberately ordered a few difficult dishes and asked the people in the small kitchen to prepare them.

After seeing that the people were sent away, I started to stroll around the Shen Mansion. After coming here so many times, I still didn't know where the ancestral hall was. Normally, the ancestral hall should be in the best location, but how come I couldn't see it after walking around for a while?

The ancestral hall doesn't have to be hidden, rich families all have one. But after looking around, I really didn't see anything. It must be that Mr. Shen was born into a nouveau riche family. He doesn't even have an ancestral hall.

"See, I guessed it right. He was born into a nouveau riche family. That wealthy family doesn't have an ancestral hall!" I looked at Nannan as if she was lecturing me, and I was really speechless for a while.

"Then there is no possibility that this is not someone's old house. The ancestral hall is in the old house." This is not unreasonable. Let's not talk about what happened on Mr. Shen's side. Mrs. Jiang had also heard about her before. She is a lady from a wealthy family.

Even with Mrs. Jiang's identity, it is possible to write the family tree from this step. Moreover, I clearly remember that when Zi Fu was still alive, Mr. Shen mentioned the ancestral hall to Mrs. Jiang, so I must have remembered it correctly.

Everyone who was wandering around was hungry, so after dinner, they followed Hongdou in choosing plaques. From time to time, he asked me which one looked good. I looked at them and they all seemed the same, so I just pointed to one at random. Hongdou picked one up and looked at it, then said with dissatisfaction, "This one is not very good."

Ah, I looked at Hongdou and smiled, "You are right, then take a look at this, how about it?" If you can't beat them, just join them. It took me an hour just to choose a plaque, and my head hurts so much.

Seeing Hongdou contentedly holding the selected plaque blueprint and going out to find a craftsman, he almost went crazy, "Why are you crazy? Isn't it just choosing a plaque?"

"Yes, I chose the plaque. After choosing and choosing, I finally chose the one I liked the most at the beginning." How could this not be a headache? Oh, I'm so tired. I don't feel like doing anything at all. I'll go back to sleep. Sleeping is the most comfortable thing.

"Or else go find Shen Jing and try to make him feel like he's running around in a mess, then he'll tell you everything." What he said is not without reason, that's why Nannan seems to want to match me up with Shen Jing.

It seems that when I think about it this way, every time Shen Jing comes out, Nannan won’t notify me. Maybe this guy has known about the relationship between Shen Jing and me for a long time, and wants me to go with the flow of events.

I looked at her strangely, "You have known about the relationship between Shen Jing and I for a long time, why didn't you tell me?" This question stunned her, and she looked at me with confusion in her eyes.

Was my attitude too extreme? I adjusted my mentality and hugged Nannan in my arms, "Don't be unhappy. I said a long time ago that I am different from you. I don't like to be controlled by others. I do everything to make myself feel more comfortable. You must have your reasons for not saying anything. I still feel a little uncomfortable in my heart."

When Nannan heard what I said, she obviously started sobbing in my arms, but it was silent. I looked at this little girl. The only thing I could do now was to touch her and comfort her softly.

I have known Nannan for such a long time, and I know her character better than anyone else. This girl will never keep things to herself. She would even tell me everything she has eaten. There must be a reason for this behavior this time.

The more I think about that dream, the sadder I feel. I knew everything, but I couldn't say anything. It must be very uncomfortable. I think he really couldn't help it that time and complained in front of me.

Nannan must be doing this for my own good by promoting the relationship between me and Shen Jing, but the feeling of being controlled by the hands of fate is really unpleasant, and it makes me instinctively develop a very rebellious mentality.

"Nannan, everything turns out for the best. It must be very painful to endure. Thank you for your hard work." What I said undoubtedly added fuel to the fire. Nannan, who was almost stopping crying, suddenly burst into tears.

Her crying voice was full of grievance, and I cried so hard that tears fell unconsciously. Then we hugged each other and cried heart-wrenchingly. Then the Golden Pig came out to see what was going on with us, and couldn't stop us.

I cried even harder when I pulled him down. The bad emotion was really contagious. In the end, Jinzhu also hugged us and cried together. Fortunately, Hongdou went out, otherwise, seeing me like this, she would have thought I was possessed by evil spirits.

Finally, I cried and cried until I fell asleep without knowing why. When I woke up, I saw that my eyes were as swollen as pandas. I began to sigh and realize that there are two things I absolutely must not do before going to bed.

One was drinking water, and the other was crying. He wanted to find a pair of sunglasses but couldn't find them, and he couldn't find any ice to apply to his face, so he found some well water and washed his face vigorously to make himself look like a panda.

After crying for a while, Nannan and Jinzhu didn't talk about Shen Jing anymore. But after thinking about it for the whole morning, I still felt that what Nannan said made sense. I could only ask Shen Jing about the ancestral hall.

Mrs. Jiang hasn't come back yet, and I don't know which temple she is in. It would be better to kill me than to go looking for her one by one. The distances between the temples mentioned are farther and farther. If I go around in a circle early, Zi Fu might have come back.

But where could Shen Jing be? I looked for the little general. He must be in his sister's shop. When I finally got the first spot in line, it turned out that the little general had just left three hours ago and I didn't know where they had gone.

I smiled awkwardly. This is the case that it is better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early. Since I was already here, I might as well give Little General some performance. I bought a big bag of food and took it back. I felt helpless when I saw Nannan and Golden Pig eating so happily.

"Anyway, the person must not have gone far, we just don't know where he is, so let's fish him out."

"How to fish?"

"Although I really don't like this red string with Shen Jing, this red string must be very useful." Then he must be looking for Shen Jing's love rival Luo. Who else could it be except Xiaobai?

However, he was not very confident that Shen Jing would show up, so when he left, he was so slow that he stood at the door but didn't see any sign of Shen Jing. So he gritted his teeth and asked the servant Xiaobai at the door if he was there.

Fortunately, I had used face recognition many times before, and the servants all knew me. We looked at each other and said, Xiaobai had left three hours ago. I looked at the servants speechlessly. No matter what happened, it was three hours ago.

Were there many tour groups three hours ago? If they had to leave at that time, then it was possible that the young general left with Xiao Bai, and this guess was confirmed by the servant at the door.

Well, Shen Jing, I was wondering why he didn't come out. It turns out that he took the person away. You are so cruel! He was also very angry and was about to leave. Just when he turned around and got on the carriage and didn't hear the driver shouting, he heard Bai Yiren's voice.

I was still thinking about whether to hide myself when this guy came straight in. How awkward this scene must be. "Miss Bai, you came up without even saying hello?"

"Miss Li, now that you're here, why don't you come in and sit down?" Is this guy seriously ill? Who was the one who shouted at me to kill him before, and now he wants me to walk into the tiger's mouth myself.
