295 Original Owner
“Do you know anything else about that guy?”
“How would I know? Although I had a good relationship with your father, he was a very tight-lipped person. He rarely mentioned other people’s affairs, so I’m not too sure where he met this friend. He only stayed at your house for a few days. After he left, he stopped sending letters.”
Yang Lizheng suddenly asked in surprise, “Was the letter that was sent to your father two days ago from Sir Zhang?”
“I was actually planning to ask you something else.” Zhao Zhan naturally changed the topic. “The new workshop will start work soon, so we have to get the manpower for it first.”
“You’re letting me go?”
Yang Lizheng didn’t have time to smoke his pipe. He choked on it and quickly placed it to the side.
“Me?”
“Yeah.” Zhao Zhan nodded. “You’re the only one who can.”
Yang Lizheng was instantly motivated.
“Since you said so, I’ll take it seriously!” He tucked the pipe away at his waist. “Tell me everything, in detail. What should I do?”
Zhao Zhan briefly explained the requirements. “You can ask Maozhong over for a drink at night. Also, you can ask Xiaoyu to help out as well. They’ve been working in my workshop for a while now and have experience in recruiting people.”
“Alright, I’ll remember what you said. I’ll ask my son to go to the neighboring villages and call the others over.”
Yang Lizheng stood up and said something behind him. He shook his head excitedly. “Willow Village can finally have a place.”
After Zhao Zhan sent Yang Lizheng off, he turned around and returned to the courtyard.
Madam Qin happened to be following Zhao Zhan back into the house with a tray.
“Zhao Zhan, I’ve just looked through all the previous letters. I didn’t find anything else.”
There was a pile of things on the table in the bedroom.
“Forget it, stop looking. Let’s leave it at that.”
Zhao Zhan thought about it and felt that it would be a waste of effort if this continued. He walked over and pulled the thing out of Yue Jiaojiao’s hand. “You’ve been running around the whole day. Stop looking. It’s a waste of your time.”
“I’ve made you some sweet soup. Do you want to try it?”
Madam Qin glanced at the table, trying to find a place to put the tray down.
“This thing…” She squinted her eyes and looked at it carefully. “Didn’t you lose this pendant a long time ago? Where did you find it?”
Madam Qin looked left and right before placing the tray on the low table at the head of the bed.
She walked over and picked up the opened wooden box on the table. She leaned closer to look at it. “Yes, this is the pendant. My lady lost it when she went out to play when she was three years old. Where did you find it?”
“This pendant is part of your dowry. It has been passed down for several generations. After it was lost, you cried for a few days and even had a high fever-”
“Wait a minute,” Yue Jiaojiao interrupted her. “Madam Qin, why don’t I have any memory of this?”
Yue Jiaojiao had the original owner’s childhood memories, but she had no recollection of what Madam Qin had just said.
Logically speaking, since this incident had caused her such a huge emotional fluctuation back then, she shouldn’t have forgotten about it.
“Madam Qin, I’ve never heard you guys mention this since I was young.”
“Of course we did.” Madam Qin recalled the past and sighed. “The last two times we mentioned it, you cried very hard. After that, we were ordered to never mention it ever again.”
“Who would have thought that this thing would return one day? If your mother knew about this, she would definitely be happy. It is finally complete.”
“Something’s not right…” Yue Jiaojiao looked at Zhao Zhan. “Zhao Zhan, didn’t you say it looked familiar to you? That means you’ve probably seen this before, or you wouldn’t have subconsciously wanted to face the sun.”
“He has?” Madam Qin also found it unbelievable.
“Back then, you were lost halfway back from North City. I remember it being extremely cold that day, and because the snow on the ground was deep, it was difficult to find it, so we had to rest for two days on the way back.
“At that time, my lady went into the forest alone for fun. When you were found, the pendant was gone.”
A familiar scene flashed through his mind.
Zhao Zhan’s brows were tightly locked together as he tried to capture the image that flashed past.
In the snow.
Ice.
A girl.
This pendant.
The fragmented images couldn’t form a clear picture. Zhao Zhan looked at Madam Qin. “Could you ask Doctor Sun to come over, please?”
“I’ll go right away.”
Madam Qin saw Zhao Zhan’s furrowed expression, so she put down the sweet soup and ran out in a hurry.
Yue Jiaojiao held onto Zhao Zhan’s hand. “Do you remember something?”
“I do have a vague impression,” Zhao Zhan said with a frown. “Maybe it was too long ago, so I can’t remember clearly. I was too young at that time.”
Doctor Sun thought something big had happened when Madam Qin called him over in a hurry.
When he saw the young couple holding hands and leaning against each other in the room, he snorted and put the first aid kit aside. “I was wondering what happened. Which one of you is feeling unwell?”
“Doctor Sun, Jiaojiao, and I are fine.” Zhao Zhan said with a straight face. “I just wanted to know how I can recall my childhood. I was about four or five years old then. Do you have anyway?”
Doctor Sun immediately picked up the medicine box on the ground again.
“You’re just looking for trouble.”
Doctor Sun glared at the two of them, his beard curling up in anger. “Are you two looking for trouble? Isn’t it normal to not remember things from your childhood?”
“Some people can’t even remember when they are seven or eight years old. Think about it if you’re just five years old. I’m a doctor, yes, but I’m not good at everything.”
Yue Jiaojiao chuckled.
...
The two of them were a little desperate.
When she thought about it carefully, she couldn’t remember much about her childhood.
“Just because she has amnesia doesn’t mean you have it too. You don’t need to play along.” Doctor Sun turned around and left. “You’re delaying me from processing the medicinal herbs.”
Madam Qin looked at Doctor Sun’s back as he walked away angrily. She lowered her head and tried to hold back her laughter. “Forget it, forget it. Actually, the things that happened in the past are no longer important. It’s a good thing it’s back. Who cares what happened in the middle? ”
Yue Jiaojiao put the lid back on and laid completely on Zhao Zhan’s body. “Madam Qin, did you know? This is a gift from Zhao Zhan’s family today.”
“What?”
“Could it be that he had already found himself a wife in advance when he was young? The two of you are destined to be together!”
“Madam Qin, did you finish reading the two boxes of novels in my room?”
If things really developed that way, it would be really incredible.
“I’m just joking.” Madam Qin smiled. “I can tell that you are taking things seriously, so I don’t think it’s necessary. Shouldn’t we just see this as a good thing?”
