Chapter 228 Familiarity
The people around the fire also saw what Wang Yulan and the other person did, but they were not nosy people. As long as it didn't bother them, they would ignore it and continue doing their own things and chatting.
"Boss, there is chaos and famine here. If the employer didn't pay us so much, we wouldn't do this job..."
"Yes, Boss. It has been more than 30 years. It is not easy to find a lost baby who was just born not long ago."
"That's right. With the clue of the jade token, we have almost traveled all over the Great Xia Kingdom. There are many people who have been abandoned with jade tokens, but none of them have the same jade token as the employer said."
"Anyway, the employer didn't set a time limit for this job, so let's take our time looking for one. The commission the employer offers is not bad."
……
When Wang Yulan heard their conversation, she couldn't help but wonder why she felt it was so familiar.
Yun Jiaojiao noticed something was wrong with Wang Yulan, so she pulled her and asked, "Grandma, what's wrong?"
"Oh, nothing." Wang Yulan replied absentmindedly, then pricked up her ears and continued to listen to their conversation.
"Boss, you said that we have been looking for this child for so many years and still haven't found him. Could it be that he is no longer alive?"
"I don't know. Anyway, we are paid to do things for them, so we don't need to worry about other things."
"That's right. Anyway, we have been looking for it for so many years and have received a lot of commissions..."
【More than 30 years, lost child, jade plaque.】
Wang Yulan listened to their conversation. Why did she feel so familiar with the things they were talking about?
Could it be that the person they are talking about is...
Is the jade tablet they were talking about the one that he and Dayang buried in the ground before?
Yun Jiaojiao saw that Wang Yulan's face looked strange, so she raised her hand and touched her forehead, "Grandma, what's wrong with you?"
Wang Yulan came back to her senses, glanced at Yun Jiaojiao, and fell into deep thought.
Wang Yulan thought about the employer they mentioned. He had been looking for a child for more than 30 years and hired so many people. The money he spent must be sky-high! !
She thought again of herself and her sons and grandchildren who had been separated. Their lives or deaths were now uncertain, and in her current state she didn't know if there would be a chance for them to be reunited.
And she was not as rich as others who could spend a lot of money to hire someone to find their whereabouts.
When Wang Yulan thought about this, she made a decision.
Wang Yulan grabbed Yun Jiaojiao's hand and pulled her away.
"Grandma, what are you doing?"
Their original purpose was to find a fire to keep warm, but now grandma dragged her to such a far place. Did she want to freeze her to death?
"Ah chirp——"
At this moment, Yun Jiaojiao couldn't help but sneeze.
If you catch a cold at this time, it will be fatal.
Wang Yulan's action made Yun Jiaojiao want to curse.
Before she could open her mouth, Wang Yulan spoke first.
"Jiaojiao, grandma wants to tell you something!"
Wang Yulan's expression was extremely serious at this moment, causing Yun Jiaojiao to swallow back what she wanted to say.
"Jiaojiao, Yun Chengli is not my biological son. Your grandfather and I picked him up on the street."
"what?"
Yun Jiaojiao was shocked by what Wang Yulan said. She raised her hand and touched Wang Yulan's forehead.
"Grandma, are you sick? Are you talking nonsense?"
Wang Yulan reached out and pushed Yun Jiaojiao's hand away, "I'm fine, I'm not sick, I'm telling the truth!"
Yun Jiaojiao thought about the difference in how grandma treated them and Yun Feifei's family, and thought that grandma liked their family more, but it turned out that it was because Yun Feifei's family had no blood relationship with them.
"At that time, your grandfather and I went to the county to do some work. On the way back, we found a baby still in swaddling clothes on the roadside. That baby was Yun Feifei's father, Yun Chengli. At that time, your grandfather wanted to bring him back to raise him so that he could have more labor when he grew up. He was also wearing a jade token at that time."
"Jade token?"
When Yun Jiaojiao heard the word "jade token", she thought of something and exclaimed.
"Could it be that Yun Feifei's father is the child those people are looking for?"
"Jiaojiao, speak more quietly." Wang Yulan raised her hand and patted Yun Jiaojiao, signaling her to speak more quietly.
At the same time, she turned her head and looked around. After she found no suspicious persons, she continued speaking.
"I don't know either, but from what I just heard, the possibility of this happening is very high."
"Then grandma, where is the jade token? Take it out quickly." Yun Jiaojiao said impatiently.
"With this jade token, we can go over there to keep warm by the fire, let them take care of us, give us food, and we can live a good life."
When Yun Jiaojiao said this, she thought of something and her face changed. "Grandma, why? Why should Yun Feifei and the others live a good life while we..."
When Yun Jiaojiao said this, she widened her eyes and looked at Wang Yulan, and at this time Wang Yulan was also looking at her.
The two just stared at each other, with all sorts of thoughts in their minds.
After a while, the grandfather and grandson leaned against each other, paying attention to the surrounding situation from time to time, and then whispered to each other.
The two talked for a long time, and their smiles grew wider as they talked.
Then we saw Yun Jiaojiao supporting Wang Yulan, and the two of them slowly approached the location where the group of people were just now.
On a snowy night, the people around the fire saw the two of them leaning over to keep warm but didn't pay much attention to them.
After all, they still had empty seats here, and the other party were two women, one old and one young, so there was no threat.
Wang Yulan and the other person sat down, lowered their heads to keep warm, and didn't say anything.
When Wang Yulan and her granddaughter saw this situation, they became restless as if ants were scratching their hearts.
[If they don’t speak, it’s hard for me to speak either! ”]
Fortunately, we are in the wilderness here and it is dark. We dare not fall asleep in such cold weather.
They observed Wang Yulan and the other person for a while, then ignored them. With nothing to do, they could only continue talking to pass the time.
But the topics of their conversation were all over the place, they talked about everything except finding their child.
They are so anxious!!
There's no point in being anxious, they can only wait for an opportunity.
Time passed by minute by minute, and seeing that the other party was not talking about the main topic, Yun Jiaojiao couldn't help but want to bring it up, but was discovered by Wang Yulan who was standing next to her, who grabbed her and shook her head at her.
Yun Jiaojiao could only sit and wait unwillingly.
Fortunately, it didn't take long before the other party brought up the topic of looking for the child.
"Alas, more than 30 years have passed. The child has grown up now. It's not easy to find him."
"There are few clues. How can we find the person with just that jade token?"
"That's true, otherwise we wouldn't have been looking for it for so many years. Fortunately, the employer is generous and pays us commission regularly every month."
