C1565 Let's Do It
Yi Lanyou asked, "Did the Cheng Family have any guests?"
"I have already asked a servant, but no one has come. " Zhuang Ya replied.
"What if someone told the servant not to tell anyone?" Yi Lanyou said.
"What do you mean?" Cheng Xuduo looked at Yi Lanyou.
"Nothing. " Yi Lanyou said, "It's inevitable that someone will be confused and lead the wolf into the house. It's better to investigate this matter. "
. . . "" Zhuang Ya immediately understood that Yi Lanyou was talking about Cheng Xuning. Her eyes moved and Zhuang Ya continued, "Miss Yi is overthinking. Yesterday, big brother and I went with grandma and the elders in the family also followed. There was no one left in the family. "
"Oh?" Yi Lanyou followed up and asked, "They all went?"
"They all went. " Zhuang Ya nodded and said.
"I see. " Yi Lanyou looked at Zhuang Ya and secretly sighed that this Zhuang Ya was really a shrewd person. She clearly knew that Cheng Xuning did not go but at this time, she deliberately said that she went.
It was not to defend or testify for Cheng Xuning but to deliberately order Matriarch of Cheng Family to let Matriarch of Cheng Family think about who among the people who should have gone, who did not go.
Matriarch of Cheng Family's eyes moved slightly and it was obvious that she had already thought of it.
"Enough. " Patriarch Wan said, "You juniors should go play first. We have other things to discuss. "
"Go. " Matriarch of Cheng Family gave Zhuang Ya and Cheng Xuduo a look.
"Go upstairs to the study. " Patriarch Wan said.
"Ok. " Matriarch of Cheng Family replied.
The butler pushed Patriarch Wan's wheelchair and left. Matriarch of Cheng Family also left with him. The rest of them stayed where they were.
"Youyou, do you know what that lost jade pendant is?" Wan Xingke took an apple and took a bite.
"Didn't Matriarch of Cheng Family say so?" Yi Lanyou said, "A token from the seven families. "
"Why are the tokens of the seven great families in the hands of the Cheng Family?" This was what puzzled Wan Xingke. "No matter how muddle-headed your grandfather is, he wouldn't lose such an important item. "
"Firstly, I don't know if it's really a token or not. " Yi Lanyou said, "Second, I don't know if it's true or not. Third, I don't know if it's lost or not. " After saying that, Yi Lanyou looked up at Cheng Xuduo and asked, "What is the Cheng Family trying to do?"
"Miss Yi, you don't have to think so much. " Cheng Xuduo smiled and said, "The Cheng Family was indeed stolen. There are obvious traces of flipping in grandma's study room. "
"That means there is indeed something missing, but it may not be the Yuan Family's jade pendant. " Yi Lanyou's eyes were locked on Cheng Xuduo, wanting to use her ability to find out something from Cheng Xuduo.
After listening for a while, Yi Lanyou found out that this Cheng Xuduo actually did not know anything. It was just that when Matriarch of Cheng Family said it, he just listened like that.
This matter was full of suspicious points. There were still many details worth pondering over.
"Assuming that all of this is true" Zhang Ya thought carefully and asked, "Then who is so interested in this jade pendant?"
"As far as I know, there is a person who is very interested in this jade pendant. " Yi Lanyou's lips curled up.
That day, Xiang Jiu'er had listened to the recording. Thorns had said very clearly that she wanted to visit the Cheng Family. How could it be such a coincidence that the Cheng Family had lost something?
However, she did not say what had been lost. Just the timing of the match was already very problematic.
Yi Lanyou thought about it and thought that this matter must have been done by Thorns following the mysterious person's instructions.
If the Cheng Family did not lose the jade pendant, then. . . What was the thing that attracted the mysterious man?
Or, why did Matriarch of Cheng Family deliberately tell her this?
Was she trying to use her to find the things that were lost in the Cheng family, or. . .
Yi Lanyou felt that there were many questions in this.
"Who is it?" Wan Xingke looked at Yi Lanyou and asked.
"You mean. . . " Zhang Ya's eyes lit up as she also thought of it.
The two of them exchanged a look and understood.
"Buddha's Day. " Yi Lanyou smiled.
"Don't say. " Zhang Ya answered the second half of the sentence.
"This is really troublesome. " Wan Xingke tsked and looked at Yi Lanyou. "What do you think?" Yi Lanyou asked.
"Thoughts?" Yi Lanyou smiled and said, "I don't have any thoughts. I do have supper that I want to eat. Do you Wan Family provide supper for me?"
"Yes. . . "
At the same time, in the study upstairs, Patriarch Wan and Matriarch of Cheng Family's expressions were solemn. Matriarch of Cheng Family leaned against the window and said, "For the time being, no one knows about this. "
"How could no one know?" Patriarch Wan frowned and said, "The thing has been lost. It is only a matter of time. If it falls into the hands of some evil person. . . "
"The thing is not lost. " Matriarch of Cheng Family said, "It is a fake. "
"It was not lost?" Only then did Patriarch Wan heave a sigh of relief.
"I thought Yi Lanyou sent someone to steal it. That's why I made up a story about the Yuan Family jade pendant and lied to her. " Matriarch of Cheng Family said, "It seems that the person who stole it was not Old Ghost Yuan. "
"Although Old Ghost Yuan's character is unpredictable, he is still a decent person. " Patriarch Wan said, "He will not do this kind of thing, much less let his descendants do this kind of thing. "
"Then who do you think it is?" Matriarch of Cheng Family looked at Patriarch Wan.
"No matter who it is. " Patriarch Wan said with a serious look, "They are all here for our Cheng Wan Family. "
"Cheng Wan and his family have been fighting for hundreds of years. They gave others the impression that they could challenge Cheng Wan's dignity. " Matriarch of Cheng Family said with a self-deprecating smile.
"It seems that we will have to follow the old path again. " Patriarch Wan looked at Matriarch of Cheng Family and said.
"Let's fish up the person behind us first. " Matriarch of Cheng Family looked at Patriarch Wan and said, "Let's do that. "
"Okay. " Patriarch Wan nodded and said, "Let's get married. "
"I see that your daughter looks like a good person. " Matriarch of Cheng Family said, "I like her very much. "
"Don't have any ideas about Xiao Ya. " Patriarch Wan said in disdain, "I don't think any junior of your Cheng Family is worthy of my daughter. "
"You old thing!" Matriarch of Cheng Family frowned and looked like she did not like Patriarch Wan's words.
"Why not let the girls of Cheng Family marry me?" Patriarch Wan said, "The granddaughter you just found is not bad. I like her. "
"It's not like I want to marry you. Why do you want to marry her?" Matriarch of Cheng Family coldly snorted and said, "I don't like the heirs of your Wan Family either. That Wan Xingzong is not a good person. The only one who looks like Wan Xinghao is still a mute. "
"What if Hao's throat recovers?" Patriarch Wan looked at Matriarch of Cheng Family and said, "I am raising Ah Hao as patriarch. Your Cheng Family's granddaughter will not suffer any losses if she marries him. "
"Matriarch of Cheng Family thought for a while and paced around the study room before she looked at Patriarch Wan and said, "It will work. "
"It is useless for us to just settle it down. It is not the same as before. " Patriarch Wan said.1
"I know. " Matriarch of Cheng Family nodded and their eyes met.
This time, they must completely fish that person out and eliminate all future troubles!
