"What's wrong? Are you still angry?" Wu Zechen looked at the person sitting far away from him with a smile.
At this time, the two of them had left the capital and were sitting in a carriage that looked ordinary on the outside but extremely comfortable on the inside, driving on the official road to Anyuan Town.
In order to avoid being spotted, they had already changed into this inconspicuous carriage in the capital. However, Xia Luotong had been sitting on the other side of the carriage since he got on the carriage, turning his head and looking at the wall of the carriage. , did not pay attention to Wu Zechen's intention at all.
Wu Zechen knew that it was because he had teased her so much in the morning and she was sulking with him right now.
Although Xia Luotong seemed free and easy on weekdays, she was actually quite shy in this regard. He had seen her blush countless times.
Wu Zechen looked at the person in front of him puffing out his cheeks and sulking with him, and sighed softly in his heart, but there was endless tenderness in his eyes.
What else can be done? Don't really make the person you identify with angry, otherwise what will you do if you run away? Have fun!
So as soon as he left Beijing, Wu Zechen got busy with making his sweetheart happy.
In fact, Xia Luotong wasn't very angry at all, and today it was this man who took him back to Anyuan Town to investigate his life story, so he gave up after being coaxed by the man for a while.
However, what she didn't expect was that as soon as she showed a little smile, the man immediately revealed his true nature and made trouble for her all the way...
The journey to Anyuan Town was not too far, but not close either. By the time they arrived at the Sun family residence in Anyuan Town, it was already afternoon.
As soon as the carriage stopped in front of the Sun family's house, the curtain was instantly opened. Xia Luotong got out first and jumped out of the carriage without any intention of waiting for the man behind him.
At this time, the way she puffed her cheeks clearly told others that she was angry!
If you look carefully, you can still find her lips, which seem to be extremely delicate and magnificent...
However, although Xia Luotong jumped out of the carriage, before she took a few steps angrily, the man behind her had already caught up with her, holding her hand with a look of fawning on her face.
Although he didn't say anything, Xia Luotong still saw the acknowledgment in his eyes, so he managed to slow down his breathing and let him hold her hand, but his lips were still pursed, showing that There is a sense of deliberate concealment.
When Wu Zechen saw this, the smile in his eyes became a little thicker, but he didn't dare to let Xia Luotong see this look again, otherwise he might not be able to coax him so easily.
Xia Luotong stood at the door and calmed down, then raised his head to look at the plaque of the Sun family residence, with only emotion in his eyes.
It turns out that what was hung on this house was not the empty plaque it has today, but the words "Xia Zhai".
As early as after Sun and Sun Wei passed away and the house was occupied by the Xia family, the Sun family's plaque was removed and replaced with the Xia family's surname until Xia Luotong took back the house from the Xia family. But after hesitating for a long time, she decided to hang up the empty plaque because there was no one in the Sun family anymore, unless she changed her surname to Sun...
Although it is okay for her to change her mother's surname, and she does not want to have the same surname as the Xia family, but now all signs indicate that Sun is not Sun Wei's biological daughter, so it is very likely that Sun will not be named Sun...
After retracting their thoughts, Xia Luotong and Wu Zechen entered Sun's house. Walking in the house where they had lived for seventeen years, Xia Luotong had various complicated and unspeakable emotions in her heart, but none of them were happy. She knew that they were all It's the emotions hidden deep in the body that are revisiting their old places at this time, so they emerge one by one.
The Xia family has no property in Anyuan Town. In addition, Mrs. Xia and Xia Zhihe did not like Anyuan Town at all because of their poverty experience in the early years. They remembered their humble past.
Therefore, for so many years, the only people living in Sun's house were Xia Luotong and the stewards who managed the Sun family's original farmland around Anyuan Town.
When Xia Luotong was young, he said he was a master, but his life was not as good as that of the lowest servant. This grand residence was equivalent to having no master, so although it was okay for people to live in the house, it had long since lost the luxury and refinement it once had.
From the moment he entered the house, Wu Zechen found that Xia Luotong's mood was not too high. He guessed that she might have remembered those past events, so he didn't say anything and just walked around with her quietly. The warm palm always tightly wrapped her little hand.
After looking around Sun's house, even the woodshed where Xia Luotong lived before, the two of them returned to the main house and sat down to rest.
"Did you find anything?" Wu Zechen asked slowly when he saw that Xia Luotong drank tea and his expression gradually returned to calm.
Although he did not specify, Xia Luotong knew what he was asking, so he just shook his head and said: "Judging from the information that the wet nurse had revealed intermittently in the past years, as well as the information you found, it is obvious that Sun Wei deliberately concealed it. As for the identity of mother and grandmother, there will be no clues left."
Sun's mixed-race appearance can be said to be basically confirmed, so Sun Wei is not his grandfather, so Xia Luotong directly called him by name, without calling him his grandfather.
"Back then, the Xia family seized the Sun family's property, and the Sun family house fell into the hands of the Li family. Naturally, it was looted a lot. In addition, over the years, the Xia family has never been here, and the servants in the house would come from time to time. If you throw things out to sell, there won't be anything left." Xia Luotong sighed softly and said helplessly.
In fact, she already knew that this would be the result before she came to Anyuan Town, but she still hoped to see it in person. After all, there was still a difference between what she remembered and what she saw with her own eyes, but it didn't seem to be the case. What a gain.
Wu Zechen gently pressed her hand to comfort her, and then said, "Did you think of anything just now? Or did your nurse mention anything else?"
Xia Luotong paused, seemed to have thought of something, hesitated for a while, but then started to speak: "According to what the wet nurse said, not many people in the Sun family really know about their mother and grandmother. We only found the servants bought by Yazi after Yuanzhen. Apart from Sun Wei himself, the only person who really knows the situation of the Sun family best is the old housekeeper from back then."
"The old housekeeper passed away not long after Sun Wei died of illness." Xia Luotong frowned, a coldness flashed in his eyes. The death of the old housekeeper was naturally caused by Li.
"But I once heard from the wet nurse that the old housekeeper also has a son."
