Chapter 295 - 295 Original Owner
The Rough Hunter s Little Lucky Wife
295 Original Owner
âDo you know anything else about that guy?â
âHow would I know? Although I had a good relationship with your father, he was a very tight-lipped person. He rarely mentioned other peopleâs affairs, so Iâm not too sure where he met this friend. He only stayed at your house for a few days. After he left, he stopped sending letters.â
Yang Lizheng suddenly asked in surprise, âWas the letter that was sent to your father two days ago from Sir Zhang?â
âI was actually planning to ask you something else.â Zhao Zhan naturally changed the topic. âThe new workshop will start work soon, so we have to get the manpower for it first.â
âYouâre letting me go?â
Yang Lizheng didnât have time to smoke his pipe. He choked on it and quickly placed it to the side.
âMe?â
âYeah.â Zhao Zhan nodded. âYouâre the only one who can.â
Yang Lizheng was instantly motivated.
âSince you said so, Iâll take it seriously!â He tucked the pipe away at his waist. âTell me everything, in detail. What should I do?â
Zhao Zhan briefly explained the requirements. âYou can ask Maozhong over for a drink at night. Also, you can ask Xiaoyu to help out as well. Theyâve been working in my workshop for a while now and have experience in recruiting people.â
âAlright, Iâll remember what you said. Iâll ask my son to go to the neighboring villages and call the others over.â
Yang Lizheng stood up and said something behind him. He shook his head excitedly. âWillow Village can finally have a place.â
After Zhao Zhan sent Yang Lizheng off, he turned around and returned to the courtyard.
Madam Qin happened to be following Zhao Zhan back into the house with a tray.
âZhao Zhan, Iâve just looked through all the previous letters. I didnât find anything else.â
There was a pile of things on the table in the bedroom.
âForget it, stop looking. Letâs leave it at that.â
Zhao Zhan thought about it and felt that it would be a waste of effort if this continued. He walked over and pulled the thing out of Yue Jiaojiaoâs hand. âYouâve been running around the whole day. Stop looking. Itâs a waste of your time.â
âIâve made you some sweet soup. Do you want to try it?â
Madam Qin glanced at the table, trying to find a place to put the tray down.
âThis thingâ¦â She squinted her eyes and looked at it carefully. âDidnât you lose this pendant a long time ago? Where did you find it?â
Madam Qin looked left and right before placing the tray on the low table at the head of the bed.
She walked over and picked up the opened wooden box on the table. She leaned closer to look at it. âYes, this is the pendant. My lady lost it when she went out to play when she was three years old. Where did you find it?â
âThis pendant is part of your dowry. It has been passed down for several generations. After it was lost, you cried for a few days and even had a high fever-â
âWait a minute,â Yue Jiaojiao interrupted her. âMadam Qin, why donât I have any memory of this?â
Yue Jiaojiao had the original ownerâs childhood memories, but she had no recollection of what Madam Qin had just said.
Logically speaking, since this incident had caused her such a huge emotional fluctuation back then, she shouldnât have forgotten about it.
âMadam Qin, Iâve never heard you guys mention this since I was young.â
âOf course we did.â Madam Qin recalled the past and sighed. âThe last two times we mentioned it, you cried very hard. After that, we were ordered to never mention it ever again.â
âWho would have thought that this thing would return one day? If your mother knew about this, she would definitely be happy. It is finally complete.â
âSomethingâs not rightâ¦â Yue Jiaojiao looked at Zhao Zhan. âZhao Zhan, didnât you say it looked familiar to you? That means youâve probably seen this before, or you wouldnât have subconsciously wanted to face the sun.â
âHe has?â Madam Qin also found it unbelievable.
âBack then, you were lost halfway back from North City. I remember it being extremely cold that day, and because the snow on the ground was deep, it was difficult to find it, so we had to rest for two days on the way back.
âAt that time, my lady went into the forest alone for fun. When you were found, the pendant was gone.â
A familiar scene flashed through his mind.
Zhao Zhanâs brows were tightly locked together as he tried to capture the image that flashed past.
In the snow.
Ice.
A girl.
This pendant.
The fragmented images couldnât form a clear picture. Zhao Zhan looked at Madam Qin. âCould you ask Doctor Sun to come over, please?â
âIâll go right away.â
Madam Qin saw Zhao Zhanâs furrowed expression, so she put down the sweet soup and ran out in a hurry.
Yue Jiaojiao held onto Zhao Zhanâs hand. âDo you remember something?â
âI do have a vague impression,â Zhao Zhan said with a frown. âMaybe it was too long ago, so I canât remember clearly. I was too young at that time.â
Doctor Sun thought something big had happened when Madam Qin called him over in a hurry.
When he saw the young couple holding hands and leaning against each other in the room, he snorted and put the first aid kit aside. âI was wondering what happened. Which one of you is feeling unwell?â
âDoctor Sun, Jiaojiao, and I are fine.â Zhao Zhan said with a straight face. âI just wanted to know how I can recall my childhood. I was about four or five years old then. Do you have anyway?â
Doctor Sun immediately picked up the medicine box on the ground again.
âYouâre just looking for trouble.â
Doctor Sun glared at the two of them, his beard curling up in anger. âAre you two looking for trouble? Isnât it normal to not remember things from your childhood?â
âSome people canât even remember when they are seven or eight years old. Think about it if youâre just five years old. Iâm a doctor, yes, but Iâm not good at everything.â
Yue Jiaojiao chuckled.
The two of them were a little desperate.
When she thought about it carefully, she couldnât remember much about her childhood.
âJust because she has amnesia doesnât mean you have it too. You donât need to play along.â Doctor Sun turned around and left. âYouâre delaying me from processing the medicinal herbs.â
Madam Qin looked at Doctor Sunâs back as he walked away angrily. She lowered her head and tried to hold back her laughter. âForget it, forget it. Actually, the things that happened in the past are no longer important. Itâs a good thing itâs back. Who cares what happened in the middle? â
Yue Jiaojiao put the lid back on and laid completely on Zhao Zhanâs body. âMadam Qin, did you know? This is a gift from Zhao Zhanâs family today.â
âWhat?â
âCould it be that he had already found himself a wife in advance when he was young? The two of you are destined to be together!â
âMadam Qin, did you finish reading the two boxes of novels in my room?â
If things really developed that way, it would be really incredible.
âIâm just joking.â Madam Qin smiled. âI can tell that you are taking things seriously, so I donât think itâs necessary. Shouldnât we just see this as a good thing?â
