Traveling through books to ancient times, I provoke the love of villains and powerful ministers

Lihua was about to speak, when she saw Lao Yu standing in the hall, she moved to Qi Qingxi's side in small steps, uneasily.

She whispered into Qi Qingxi's ear: "I saw Ah Nuan, but Sister Gingko said that she was learning the rules from the mother, so I thought not to disturb her and go to her later."

Qi Qingxi nodded gently towards Lihua.

She knew that Aunt Osmanthus didn't want her children to know this, so she said to Lihua, "This is your first visit to my sister's house. There is a big garden at my sister's house. May I ask this sister to take you for a stroll?"

Lihua glanced at her mother, then at Lao Yu timidly, and nodded.

Ginkgo took Lihua's hand again and left. Qi Qingxi looked at the backs of the two leaving, and said to Lao Yu: "This little girl is Zhang Lin's daughter."

Lao Yu turned around to look at the back of Li Hua's departure, and finally realized something was wrong.

He remembered that Lao Zhang did have a daughter, it was true, but the daughter of Lao Zhang's family was only four or five years old, and the girl in front of him seemed to be in her teens.

He bowed to Qi Qingxi and said: "Ma'am, I made a mistake. I have seen all the sons and daughters of the old Zhang family. The son is only six or seven years old this year, and the daughter is two years younger than the son."

When Qi Qingxi heard the words, he really thought so. This heartbroken man threw away his wife and married another, and he had two children. What's more ironic is that he also had a son and a daughter.

She turned her head to look at Aunt Osmanthus, who stood there in a daze as if she had lost her soul.

Qi Qingxi couldn't help but shook her head. Although Aunt Osmanthus said it was so free and easy, but she really knew that her husband abandoned his wife and son, and had another wife and child outside, so she was still sad.

She patted Aunt Osmanthus's hand lightly, looked at Lao Yu again, and said with a long sigh, "That's right, this is Zhang Lin's wife in Ansui's hometown, and she has a son and a daughter for him." The one just now is a daughter, and there is a 17-year-old son who is now joining the army at the border."

Lao Yu looked at Aunt Osmanthus in disbelief: "Old Zhang...he..."

Lao Yu "him" for a long time, but he couldn't say another word.

He and Lao Zhang have known each other for almost ten years. In his impression, Lao Zhang is a very loyal person, and after getting married and having children, he is famous among their friends for doting on their wives and children.

Why is there another old Zhang's wife here, and the girl who was said to be Lao Zhang's daughter just now?

Lao Yu: "I remember that Lao Zhang said before that he has no relatives in his hometown. Could it be that he has the same name and surname, and he recognized the wrong person?"

Qi Qingxi thought for a moment, then nodded: "It's not impossible."

Qi Qingxi's words rekindled hope in Aunt Osmanthus behind her.

Aunt Osmanthus secretly let out a sigh of relief, the moment she heard that the surname Zhang married someone else in the capital, her heart was really in a mess.

She had waited for him for so many years, even though she said so to the shopkeeper, she still hoped that their family would be happy.

Qi Qingxi had a panoramic view of Aunt Osmanthus's expression. Although she said so, she was [-]% sure in her heart that the Zhang Lin Lao Yu was talking about was the one from Aunt Osmanthus's family.

How could there be so many people with the same name and surname in the same place, who also happened to be soldiers in the Northwest?

If you don't believe me, let her ask her a question.

If there is such a coincidence in the world, she is willing to come to the door to apologize to Mr. Zhang in person.

"Your brother Zhang Lin has a burn scar on his arm? Does he have a big mole on the side of his nose? He always touches that mole unconsciously when he talks?"

These are all what Aunt Osmanthus revealed to her when she was chatting with Aunt Osmanthus just now.

Aunt Osmanthus had talked a lot about Zhang Lin, and she only mentioned one or two small features, and Lao Yu was so shocked that he nodded repeatedly.

"That's right, there is indeed a big mole on the side of Lao Zhang's nose, and there is indeed a burn scar on his arm. He said it was when he was young..."

"He was beaten by his stepmother when he was young with red-hot firewood from the stove. The firewood was so red that his clothes were burned with a stick." Aunt Osmanthus interrupted Lao Yu with tears in her eyes. Said, "It's really him, damn it, he's really...he..."

Aunt Osmanthus lost her strength and fell to the ground.

It was inconvenient for Qi Qingxi to stand up, she shouted outside: "Sequoia, Sequoia, come here."

After Sequoia came in, she immediately went to Aunt Osmanthus and helped her up, which made Lao Yu, who was about to go forward, pause, and rubbed his fingers in embarrassment.

Sequoia supported Aunt Osmanthus to sit down, Aunt Osmanthus clenched her fists and slapped her chest in pain: "Today, he..."

Aunt Osmanthus still couldn't say two complete sentences.

Qi Qingxi didn't even open her mouth to persuade her, this kind of thing had to be figured out by herself, so that others could listen to what she said.

Qi Qingxi turned to look at Lao Yu: "Guard Yu, it's hard work for you to make this trip. Also, please keep the matter of their mother and daughter's coming to Beijing a secret for now and don't tell Zhang Lin."

Lao Yu nodded: "Don't worry, I know what to do."

Although he and Zhang Lin are brothers, if Zhang Lin really did such a thing as abandoning his wife and remarrying, with such poor character, don't let him recognize this brother again.

Aunt Osmanthus sat there weeping uncontrollably. Seeing this, Lao Yu cupped her fists and left first.

Qi Qingxi patted Aunt Osmanthus on the back: "Okay, don't cry, if Lihua hears it, how would you explain it to her?"

Aunt Osmanthus wiped away her tears with her sleeves: "What you said is that we can't let Lihua know about this for now. She has been looking forward to seeing her father and wants her father to take her to the Lantern Festival..."

Halfway through the conversation, Aunt Osmanthus couldn't help crying again.

Qi Qingxi rubbed her forehead, and quickly changed the subject to divert Aunt Osmanthus' thoughts: "Where do you and Lihua live now?"

Aunt Osmanthus wiped away her tears, her voice choked with sobs: "I took Lihua and rented a house outside the city. I just didn't have to go to work today, so I found it at the address given to me by shopkeeper Fan."

"Then where do you work now?" Qi Qingxi asked again.

Aunt Osmanthus had completely stopped crying at this time, cleared her throat and returned to Qi Qingxi's question: "I still do the old job, helping wash dishes in the back kitchen of a restaurant outside the city, earning not much, but enough Lihua and I won't be hungry for three meals a day."

Qi Qingxi thought for a moment, thinking that she and Guan Shi had decorated and opened the shop on the Xizhimen side two months ago, and now the business is just starting, and they just need helpers.

She asked Aunt Osmanthus if she would like to help in the newly opened shop.

As for the heartbroken man surnamed Zhang, she asked Aunt Osmanthus to think about it first, and she would definitely help Aunt Osmanthus to seek justice.
