Chapter 164: Chapter 160 So Stupid It Hurts
“Wait a minute… let think…”
He really felt the face was familiar, but he just couldn’t rember where he had seen it before.
Mr. Qin felt that they were on the right track, and since he was quick-witted, he hinted, “The familiar face you’ve seen might not be her in person, it could also be her child…”
He had heard from the old man that when she left, she might’ve been pregnant!
And sure enough, this hint really opened up Tie Zhu’s mind.
He suddenly thought of soone,
“I think this person looks a lot like my brother’s dad.”
Of course, he had never t Qin Ye’s grandmother; after all, she had passed away a long ti ago. When she died, he was probably still who knows where, possibly getting pushed around like a dog.
“Who is it?” Mr. Qin’s expression was sowhat excited. Over the years, helping to look for people, there had been many false leads, but whenever they went to confirm, they would return disappointed.
This ti, he sohow felt they would find the person.
Tie Zhu was shocked by his excitent and wondered if he had said sothing wrong?
“… let take a closer look.”
Damn! It really does bear a resemblance.
When Mr. Qin’s father was young, he was a handso guy known throughout the local area, and he had even been a soldier, quite capable back then.
Even though the family was not well-off, with a wicked stepmother, he had heard that there were many girls who wanted to marry him back then; it was just unfortunate that in the end, he married soone from out of town.
Suddenly, Tie Zhu rembered that Qin Ye’s dad indeed had a father, so surely the person they were looking for must be him.
Otherwise, according to what this man said, wouldn’t it an that Qin Ye’s dad wasn’t actually born to Grandpa Qin Ye?
The complex relationships tangled his brain.
“… it seems a little like him, and a little not.”
Mr. Qin: …
Whether it looked like him or not, having such a clue was rare, and he felt it would be better to et the person, especially since he had been delayed here for quite a long ti.
Without any more useful leads, he was also ready to return to Beijing.
He had been out for a long while and still had many things to deal with back ho.
“Could you take to et him first?”
When Tie Zhu heard this, he almost wished he could slap himself for being so talkative.
With a reluctant face, he said, “It’s not that I’m willing to take you there, it’s that my brother’s dad has been dead for many years.”
Mr. Qin frowned upon hearing this, “Then take to et your brother. I really appreciate it because this is very important to and our family. And rest assured, whether it’s him or not, I won’t cause any inconvenience to your brother’s life.”
Tie Zhu: …
With things put that way, it seed like he couldn’t refuse.
With a hesitant and restless heart, he relented with a nod, “Alright then!”
On second thought, considering how the Qin Family had been so bad to Qin Ye’s family, maybe… just maybe the person they were looking for actually wasn’t blood-related.
The mont this rebellious thought materialized, Tie Zhu increasingly felt like the possibility wasn’t entirely without rit.
Otherwise, how could a real grandfather be so cruel to his own flesh and blood? Sothing was distinctly wrong here!
When Mr. Qin saw he agreed, he beca a bit impatient, “Why don’t we go right now?”
Hearing this, Tie Zhu thought, is there really such a rush?
But still, he nodded, “… Sure.”
Mr. Qin turned to the person beside him, “Luo Cheng, go borrow a vehicle.”
Luo Cheng imdiately nodded, handed the wild ginseng back to Mr. Qin, and set out.
Mr. Qin looked at the wild ginseng in hand, feeling it wasn’t quite right to hold onto it.
“Brother Tie Zhu, please keep these safe for for now.”
Tie Zhu: …
Are you sure it’s appropriate to leave such valuable things with ?
Nonetheless, he nodded, “Okay.”
He took the wild ginseng and figured he’d better find a place to store it safely lest it get gnawed on by rats, which would not be good.
Half an hour later, Luo Cheng returned.
As soon as Mr. Qin saw him return, he couldn’t wait to head outside.
Seeing that it was a tractor, the corner of his mouth twitched.
“Mr. Qin, it’s hard to borrow a car in this town. The only one was taken to the county for a eting.”
This tractor was what he had borrowed from the agricultural station.
“Alright!” Given the local conditions, it wasn’t like they couldn’t manage.
The front seat could accommodate two people, so he sat down beside it.
Of course, Luo Cheng was the one driving the tractor.
And Tie Zhu, very conscientiously, stood in the back bed of the tractor.
When their tractor arrived at Qin Ye’s family’s place, Rong Yan had just gotten there.
“Mr. Rong,” Mr. Qin had already found out Rong Yan’s last na from Tie Zhu while on the road.
“How co you…” ca over? Rong Yan hadn’t even pushed her bike through the gate when she saw the buyer – she was sowhat surprised.
Could it be that he regretted buying those three wild ginseng plants?
Just at that mont, Tie Zhu jumped down from the back bed of the tractor.
“Sister-in-law, it’s like this, Mr. Qin has so business with Qin Ye. Is Qin Ye ho?”
Rong Yan didn’t expect that they had co to find Qin Ye, and she said, “Let’s talk inside.” Because she also didn’t know if Qin Ye was ho at that mont.
After all, when she left, Qin Ye hadn’t co down from the mountain yet.
Just as her words ended, the door opened.
The person opening the door was Qin Ye, who, seeing his wife arrive, imdiately went out to take her bicycle: “Wife, let handle this.”
Naturally, Rong Yan let go and stepped to the side.
But Tie Zhu, seeing the man pushing the bicycle inside, couldn’t help but be speechless. Did this guy only have eyes for his wife? Didn’t he see them?
Was the presence of three living n so negligible?
Not to ntion the huge tractor parked at the door.
Rong Yan’s gaze lingered on Mr. Qin for a mont, then she said, “Let’s all go inside.”
“Okay,” Tie Zhu walked in.
Only then did he notice the courtyard was clean and tidy.
Different from last ti he ca, which wasn’t too long ago, but this ti… there was a feeling of liveliness, one might say human warmth.
It wasn’t as deserted as before.
“This is…”
It was his first ti seeing this middle-aged woman.
She looked a bit like Qin Ye’s wife.
“This is my mother-in-law,” Qin Ye introduced her.
“Hello, mother-in-law…” Tie Zhu was a bit flustered, so he got his words mixed up.
Rong Yan: …
Madam Rong: …
Tie Zhu’s call drew a sharp glance from Qin Ye, who is he calling mother-in-law?
Realizing belatedly what he had said, Tie Zhu suddenly felt awkward; he was about to die of stupidity.
“I an… Hello, auntie. I’m a good buddy of Qin Ye, my na is Tie Zhu. You look so young.”
No wonder she could have such a beautiful daughter; the mother’s looks were indeed not bad.
Madam Rong found this man quite interesting, “Thank you, please have a seat, I’ll go pour so tea for you.”
With that, she left.
