Jiang Ci's eyes swept across these unfamiliar faces, and finally his gaze fell on Nanny Zhao.
"Are you Aunt Zhao?"
Nanny Zhao was stunned for a moment, staring at Jiang Ci in astonishment.
"Sir, don't you remember me?"
The dark line standing next to Jiang Ci said: "The master has lost his memory."
"Amnesia? So it's not our master's intention that we were sold out?"
She thought that the master didn't want them, so he sold them all off.
As a result, as soon as they arrived at the pawnshop, several strange men came and bought them. These people settled them in this house, provided them with food and accommodation, and did not require them to do any work. They just did not allow them to go out freely, and did not explain why they were locked up here.
Nanny Zhao had worked in the mansion for half her life and had seen a lot of dirty things in the backyard. After calming down, she thought about the time she met the Madam a few years ago. At that time, she felt that something must have gone wrong between the Madam and the Young Master, and perhaps the selling out of them, the servants, was related to this matter.
But I didn’t expect that the young master had lost his memory. Why did his wife return to Xinyang Prefecture alone after he lost his memory?
Jiang Ci picked up the teacup beside him, brought it to his lips with his bony fingers and took a sip.
"Madame Zhao is an elder in the Jiang residence. She should know a lot about my affairs. Please tell me in detail what happened in the past two years."
After saying this, he raised his cold eyes and glanced at Aunt Zhao.
"Tell me everything in detail."
Nanny Zhao collected her thoughts and immediately nodded respectfully.
"I will tell you everything I know."
Jiang Ci raised his chin and said, "Sit down."
Nanny Zhao knelt down and bowed, then walked to the first chair on the left and sat down, and then began to tell everything she knew about Jiang Ci.
The more Jiang Ci listened, the more his brows furrowed.
"You mean I declare her to be my wife?"
Madam Zhao nodded and said, "You dote on Madam very much. To be honest, I have never seen anyone love his wife so much. Madam is also very good to you and takes good care of you on weekdays. In the eyes of us servants, you two are a loving couple, a perfect match made in heaven."
Jiang Ci was playing with the small-leaf red sandalwood bracelet. His face looked calm, but he was quite shocked in his heart.
So, he actually developed a romantic relationship with this nominal sister-in-law?
I recalled the woman's voice, appearance and smile in my mind. Under the moonlight, that glimpse of beauty passed through my heart. It seemed understandable that I fell in love with her.
Afterwards, Jiang Ci asked Sister Li, Sister Qin and Madam Wei to talk about Yan Shu in their eyes. The sincere praise they gave to Yan Shu seemed to be genuine.
"You guys stay here for now, and we'll let you go when the time is right."
Nanny Zhao hurriedly stood up and knelt down.
"Sir, I don't want to leave the Jiang Mansion. You and Madam are very kind to us, and we also like working in the Jiang Mansion. Please don't chase me away."
The others knelt down as well.
"Please allow us to stay in the Jiang Mansion. We will serve you and your wife even better in the future."
Jiang Ci pondered for a moment: "We'll discuss other matters later."
Nanny Zhao raised her head and looked at Jiang Ci: "Master, when will you bring your wife back?"
Jiang Ci was silent for a moment: "Not too long."
next day
Jiang Ci arrived at Bailu Academy early in the morning and first went to meet Pei Daru from Enshi. He discussed academic matters with Pei Daru, and it was already noon when they finished.
He walked out of Pei Daru's room and met a young man head-on.
The other party was visibly shocked when he saw him.
"Mr. Jiang, you're back?"
Jiang Ci stopped and looked at the other person with cold eyes.
The young man in front of him seemed to be about the same age as himself. He was wearing a student's robe from Bailu Academy and had a handsome face, but he did not remember him.
"Who is your Excellency?"
"You...you don't remember me?" Bai Yuting walked up to Jiang Ci with a look of astonishment on his face.
Jiang Ci shook his head: "I lost some of my memory due to an accident."
Bai Yutang frowned and muttered to himself.
No wonder Jiang Ci didn’t come back with Miss Yan. In the past six months, the Yan family never mentioned Jiang Ci again. It turned out that he had lost his memory.
"Then do you remember Miss Yan?"
When Jiang Ci heard Bai Yuting mention Yan Shu, he knew that the person in front of him knew about his past with Yan Shu.
He gradually discovered that he seemed to have forgotten everyone related to Yan Shu.
"Are you talking about Yan Shu?"
Wen Yutang asked happily: "Do you remember her?"
Jiang Ci chuckled: "You're not the only one who mentioned her to me after I came back."
Bai Yutang's eyes dimmed again after lighting up.
"You actually even forgot about Miss Yan?"
"She is important to me?"
"Of course, you once valued her more than your own life."
Jiang Ci raised his eyebrows in understanding. Very good, it seems that he had more than just liked this sister-in-law.
"Tell me about her."
He wanted to know more about the past. His heart would not lie. He had an inexplicable sense of familiarity when he saw Yan Shu for the first time.
The two walked to a pavilion and sat down. Wen Yutang told Jiang Ci what happened on the way to escape the famine and after arriving in Xinyang Prefecture. Jiang Ci listened silently, as if he had experienced it himself.
"Yan Huai?" Wen Yutang saw a figure passing by in front of him and hurriedly called out to him.
Yan Huai stopped and looked into the pavilion.
When he saw Jiang Ci, his face suddenly darkened.
Jiang Ci is back?
Come to think of it, the provincial examination is about to begin, and he should have come back at this time to take part in it.
Wen Yutang glanced at Jiang Ci, who then looked at Yan Huai.
Is this person in front of her her third brother?
Yan Huai was silent for a moment, but still walked straight over.
Although he didn't want to have too much contact with Jiang Ci, he didn't want Jiang Ci to lose his memory. As classmates, they had gone through hardships together many times, so he would not hold a grudge against him.
Since we have met, as classmates we should go up and say hello before leaving.
"Mr. Jiang is back to take part in the provincial examination?"
Jiang Ci nodded in agreement, and wanted to take this opportunity to chat with Yan Huai for a few more words, when suddenly a cry of surprise came from the front.
"There's a fire, come and help."
The three of them looked towards the Shuyuzhai in the east at the same time. Wen Yutang stood up first and said, "Oh no, that's the direction of the study."
Books are the lifeblood of students. Shuyuzhai is a study room in Bailu Academy that is open to students for free. A fire there would be a big deal.
Yan Huai also stood up and ran towards Shuyuzhai. Jiang Ci glanced around out of the corner of his eye and saw a black shadow flash by behind the trees in the garden not far away.
He sneered inwardly, thinking that the fire came at a perfect time.
