From Sidekick to Bigshot - Chapter 1423
The trembling hand of the one-eyed shopkeeper took out a piece of kraft paper from his arms.
This kraft paper looks old.
He unfolded in front of Jian Yiling and said: “I was not sure if I would come to you for help, but I recently learned that Madam Zhai’s grandmother is the Xie family, so I don’t hesitate anymore.”
He has been looking for someone who might crack the secret recorded on this kraft paper all these years.
Every time he meets a suitable person, he will register.
Over the years, besides Jian Yiling, he also screened others.
It wasn’t until recently that the old lady Jian’s identity was known that the one-eyed shopkeeper decided to look for Jian Yiling.
Jian Yiling looked at the things on the kraft paper and frowned.
The things recorded here are actually related to the Xie family.
Jian Yiling turned his head to look at Zhai Yunsheng. Zhai Yunsheng helped Jian Yiling make up his mind: “Two of you, go and sit in the room. Mrs. Jian is now at my [country novel www.yanjuexiangcun.com] home. Some things may It is more appropriate to talk to Mrs. Jian.”
Mrs. Jian went downstairs and saw the one-eyed man.
“Miss Xie.”
After seeing the old lady, the one-eyed man knelt down.
Mrs. Jian hurriedly stopped: “When I get up, what age is it, I’m not happy to kneel!”
“The rules uploaded by the ancestors cannot be broken, and the collateral heirs must swear to protect the master’s family.”
Said the one-eyed man.
Mrs. Jian frowned, and followed the one-eyed man carefully.
“Are you… someone from the Xie family?”
“Father Xie Guofeng.”
“Ah…” The old lady Jian looked surprised, looking at the one-eyed man for a long time, unable to return to her senses.
“Old lady, who is he talking about?”
Mr. Jian asked, the background of the Xie family is complicated. He and the old woman have been married for so many years, and they are not very clear about those things about the Xie family.
“Xie Guofeng is my cousin.” Mrs. Jian sighed, “It’s the child of my third uncle’s family, the same generation as me. If he is Xie Guofeng’s son, he should call me an aunt according to generation.”
The blood relationship with the old lady is not very close, but it is indeed the family.
“Don’t dare, you belong to the family, I am a descendant of a collateral line, and there is a difference in respect.” The one-eyed man has a strict hierarchy.
“Why would you come to me?” Old Lady Jian asked in confusion.
“Because of this.” The one-eyed man handed the kraft paper to Mrs. Jian’s hand.
When Mrs. Jian looked at the kraft paper, the expression on her face was different.
“What’s the matter with you, old lady? Don’t be surprised, can you? You don’t know if you are in poor health. Xiaoguai rescued you from a stroke two years ago!”
The old man Jane scolded the old lady, in fact, he felt sorry for her, for fear that she would rush into her head with excitement and something would happen.
“It’s okay, I just… remembered some things in the past.” The old lady Jian’s eyes seemed to be looking far away.
She had seen this kraft paper, she had seen it in her grandfather’s hand a long time ago.
At that time, she was the only daughter in the family, and grandfather’s favorite granddaughter, so she often ran to her grandfather’s study.
At that time, the outside was turbulent, and many people in the family were doing business in country M.
Old lady Jian recalled for a while and then asked the one-eyed man: “This kraft paper was originally given to you.”
“To be precise, it was given to my father, who entrusted it to me before his death. I am always looking for someone who can unlock this secret.”
The one-eyed man obeyed his father’s last wish.
Even if the Xie family has disappeared for so many years.
