Chapter 547 Memories? Successfully found evidence
"You stinky boy, you want me to kneel down for you, you are so beautiful! I'm telling you! This doesn't count, you didn't use any magic at all!"
"As long as I have solved my problem, it's fine. Why do you care if I use Taoism or not? Hurry up. I don't have time to waste. Kowtow to me! Are you trying to be a rogue?"
"I'm just being naughty, what can you do?"
"Not so good, I admit defeat! Also, you said your house is not clean, so why don't you do something about it!"
"You wait for me!"
"Just wait! But before that, you should kowtow!"
"I don't..." Master Jia Huo knelt down before he could finish the word "no".
Yao Qingnian looked at him and covered her mouth with her hands while laughing: "Alright, alright, I forgive you generously, you can go now!"
"You!" Master Jia Huo didn't know why he knelt down and had to leave in shame.
"Master Qingran, he just said that our house is not clean, is it true?"
"I don't know whether it's clean or not, Master Wen, you have to ask a Taoist priest to come and take a look, because I don't understand this!"
"This, aren't you a master? How could you not know it?" Master Wen was a little confused.
"To be honest, Master Wen, I am not a Taoist priest, but an ordinary person. I came to your house because I want to ask you for help with something. I happened to hear that your house has been in turmoil recently, so I pretended to be a Taoist priest. In fact, this house belongs to an old friend of ours."
"What help?" Master Wen looked her up and down with a look of surprise on his face.
"Looking for something from an old friend." Yao Qingnian told the story. "This house belonged to an old friend of ours. He later passed away due to some reasons. In the end, this house was bought by you, but the thing is still in this yard. So we wanted to ask you if we can look for it in this house. Don't worry, we will never touch your things. We will leave when we find what we want. I don't want the money you gave me. If you are worried, you can ask someone to follow us."
"Can you tell me what it is? Let me see if I have seen it before."
"Some evidence."
"Evidence? Never mind. I'm just looking for something. You guys helped me a lot, so I'll let the housekeeper take you there. But when we moved in, we threw away all the old and useless things and bought new ones. I haven't seen any evidence."
"We just wanted to give it a try. If we can find it, we'll try. If we can't find it, forget it."
"Well, go ahead!" Master Wen didn't say anything else. He nodded and signaled the butler to take them there.
Seeing that Master Wen agreed, Yao Qingnian and Zhao Qi looked at each other and began to search in the courtyard of the Wen Mansion.
Zhao Qi took Yao Qingnian to Lao Qiao's former study, which is now Master Wen's study. Some things inside had been replaced, but Zhao Qi said that Lao Qiao went to the study the most often after his return, so it was very likely that the things were placed here. However, after the two of them took a look around, they didn't find anything. Yao Qingnian even searched every wall, wondering if there might be any secret compartments or rooms, but in the end found nothing.
After coming out of the study, they went to Lao Qiao's room, but still couldn't find him. They searched almost everywhere in the house, but found nothing. Could it be that he was discovered and taken away in advance?
"Zhao Qi, could it be that the evidence has been taken away by someone? Besides you, is there anyone else who knows about the existence of this thing?"
"Shen Wenting probably doesn't know about this. My uncle did it secretly. As for whether he told anyone else, I don't know. My uncle doesn't have many friends on weekdays. Apart from my family or drinking with me, he rarely has close friends. No one else should know about this."
"Then what are you thinking about carefully? Is there anything you missed?!"
I think Lao Qiao would definitely not put such an important thing in an obvious place. Also, if he told Zhao Qi, it would definitely be a place that only the two of them knew about.
"No, I've looked everywhere in the mansion."
"Isn't there a place that only you two know about?"
"Only the two of us know about it?" Zhao Qi tried hard to recall, but he couldn't remember after a long time.
The two had no choice but to sit on the stone bench in the yard. The last time they were here, their uncle had been murdered. They brought their family and uncle's family here to eat their last meal, planning to return to their hometown in the countryside after the meal. Who would have thought that it would be a farewell forever.
Zhao Qi's parents passed away when he was very young. His uncles and aunts in the family said that he was a nemesis who had killed his parents and was an unwanted burden. They wanted to kick him out of the house, but it was his uncle who took him home. Although his uncle's family conditions were not good at the beginning, he never let him starve. As long as his own family had food to eat, he never treated him badly.
It was not until they followed Shen Wenting that their lives gradually got better. No matter what others said about Lao Qiao, no matter how many mistakes he made, for Zhao Qi, Lao Qiao was the person closest to him. When Lao Qiao was still there, he didn't feel anything. After he left, he began to regret why he couldn't get his uncle out of the Shen family earlier. Otherwise, now their big family might still be living happily together! The days when the family was together can never be replaced by more money.
He recalled the past and looked around this place that was once so familiar. His eyes stopped at one place. Suddenly, he stood up, ran to the wall, and started digging with a shovel. After digging for a while, he pulled a box out of the soil.
The place where he was located was a corner of the courtyard wall. When he was a child, he was disobedient, and Old Joe always liked to punish him by making him stand here facing the wall to reflect on his mistakes. When he grew up, he would always sneak out to play through this place. When he climbed back, Old Joe would often wait for him below with a rattan stick in his hand, and beat him until he cried out. This place became the place where the two of them had the most memories. When they grew up, they would sit in the courtyard and drink, and they would laugh whenever they talked about those times. It was not until he got married that Old Joe bought him a courtyard of his own, and he left his uncle's house.
Zhao Qi opened the box. In addition to some house deeds and land deeds, there were also things he had done for Shen Wenting over the years, all of which were recorded clearly. With these things, it was enough to completely ruin Shen Wenting's reputation.
"Miss, I'm giving all these things to you." Zhao Qi pushed everything in the box in front of her with red eyes.
"You can keep these deeds! I'll keep the evidence."
"My uncle has done so many wrong things, but his family is innocent, so..."
"I understand. Don't worry. Sooner or later, I will let everyone know what Shen Wenting did and make him get the punishment he deserves." Yao Qingnian said in a cold voice.
After they put away their things, they found Master Wen and said goodbye and left...
