Jing Yunzhao was surprised.
He didn’t want his daughter, but he didn’t care about his son for his daughter.
However, Old Xu wasn’t a layman. He didn’t care about his son. However, it was no wonder that no one came looking for him after living in Huaning County for so long.
She often came to this small courtyard, but so far, the only ” stranger ” she had met here was Li Shaoyun.
“Uncle…What happened to your junior sister, the daughter of the old master?”Jing Yunzhao asked after thinking for a moment.
She had never been a nosy person, but after spending so much time with Old Man Xu, she knew nothing about him. Sometimes, she wanted to show concern for him, but she did not know how to say it. It was really awkward.
Xu Xingyuan’s hands paused, and a trace of memories flashed across his face. He was a little sad.
“Actually, we don’t know either. Because that era was different from the present, it was difficult to contact her. She eloped with that man. Master’s eldest son acquiesced and even helped them settle down in Huaning County. However, no one knows where they live exactly. They only write to our family every week. Then, one day, when we didn’t receive a letter, the man who was with her inexplicably returned to Beijing. He couldn’t even find out where his junior sister was. He didn’t even know if she was dead or alive.”
” Master dotes on this daughter the most. After Xianlan went missing, she locked herself up and drank or made medicine every day. The two young masters at home had no choice but to cooperate in the search. They searched for her for more than ten years, but there was still no news. Master probably felt that he was getting old and gave up hope. He wanted to settle down in the place where his daughter went missing. Maybe he would be lucky enough to meet her.”
Xu Xingyuan looked at Jing Yunzhao and said, ‘”’01d Master originally suspected that you might be his granddaughter, but unfortunately, your age doesn’t match.”
When her junior sister eloped with the man named Li Tianyi, she never heard of any children. Li Tianyi never mentioned anything about it when he returned to the capital. If she was pregnant after she went missing, she would not be as old as Jing Yunzhao.
Jing Yunzhao smiled when she heard that.
“I wish I had a grandfather like Elder Xu. He has a strange temper and is to my liking. “Jing Yunzhao smiled.
“I think that you are a girl sent by the heavens to comfort the old man and relieve his pain of missing his daughter. Ever since you appeared, the old man has been much happier than before and has also listened to you. Although he likes wine, he can still be considered to have enough.”Xu Xingyuan said.
Jing Yunzhao pursed her lips into a smile and decided to add more dishes for Grandpa Shen since he was so fond of her.
Jing Yunzhao’s eyes were gentle as she watched the sun set. Li Shaoyun was smart enough to help her even before Old Man Xu chased him away, but Jing Yunzhao rolled her eyes at him.
It was fine if he followed her around every day, but he actually said that he was a teacher and had to watch her closely. He was clearly looking for an excuse to cheat her of alcohol!
The more Jing Yunzhao’s expression changed, the more Li Shaoyun became interested in her. His slender figure followed closely behind Jing Yunzhao, and from time to time, he would whisper a few words to her. It was a heartwarming scene, but Jing Yunzhao did not feel it herself.
When he was almost done with the chores, an anxious sound came from the door.
Jing Yunzhao opened the door and saw that it was Gan Jinchen with a serious face..
