Chapter 38 "What did you say." Hearing the official...

    "What did you say?" Xu Zhao's pupils shrank when he heard the officer's words, and his hand on the door frame tightened.

    The official messenger, Zhou Shao, curled the corners of his lips and said it again with a good temper.

    "Excuse me...Xu Xiucai, is your wife here? I'm her cousin. I just got news from home, so I took the liberty to visit." After

    speaking, he shook the boxing gift in his hand, and then added Said: "I will be on duty tomorrow, and there is no free time. Please forgive me for disturbing you late at night."

    Cousin? Xu Zhao frowned, and looked at the person up and down. If the other person had a public office and looked like he was not in a low position, Xu Zhao would have wanted to shut him out on the spot.

    Who doesn't know that his little girl, Bian Yu, has been missing for nearly four months, and that he went to his house to look for someone at such a time, either to see a joke or to kiss him with an unknown intention.     Xu Zhao had a smile on his face, but his eyes were indifferent. What's more, Bian Yu once mentioned to him, saying that Aunt Bian had been a servant of a big family since she was a child. Later, when she met Master Bian, the other party fell in love with Aunt Bian Only shamelessly begged for someone from the master.     That is to say, Bian Yu's mother is alone and widowed, with no relatives or relatives, where did she come from her mother's cousin?     He said directly, "Master Zhou, I'm afraid you've gone through the wrong door. My wife has been away from home for more than four months." Xu Zhao said this lightly. "Master Zhou is busy, I'm afraid he doesn't know these little things."     Therefore, there is no need to come to see him lively.     It's really not that Xu Zhao thought too much, I don't know which one who broke the mouth, spread the news of Bian Yu's disappearance, and added fuel to it:     "The little lady of Xu Xianggong's family ran away with the wild man, I heard that it was an elopement. "     Ah this..." The little daughter-in-law looked surprised, but her eyes were shining with gossip, "Aunt Lin, do you know something? Tell me, I promise not to tell anyone."















    Aunt Lin, who came out to buy food with a basket on her shoulders, obviously couldn't hold it in any longer, she poured out what was hidden in her heart when she saw someone asked.

    "Then don't tell me." Aunt Lin lowered her voice mysteriously: "Didn't that little lady have a baby a while ago? It is said that she hurt her body and will not be able to give birth in the future. No, don't look at Xu Xianggong. I'm good-natured outside, but in fact...you know, over time, didn't that little lady run away with someone?"

    "Oh, oh, that's what happened." I shared this gossip with my sister-in-law.

    If you don't tell others, it will hurt your own sister-in-law. Can you call someone else?

    As a result, Xu Zhao is truly a household name in the surrounding area. Not a good reputation though.

    Every day, many people wandered to his door to watch the fun. Even the officials he met on the road made fun of him from time to time. Xu Zhao thought that the rumored Zhou Ye was so boring.

    Who knows that Zhou Shao is really blocked in news?

    Seeing that Xu Zhao's face was not very good, Zhou Shao's faint smile was put away, and he finally returned to his usual image of a cold-faced official.

    "Zhou is not joking with Xu Xiucai." Zhou Shao paused, realizing that something he didn't understand might have happened in the past few months since he left. "Go in and talk?"

    Xu Zhao took a deep look at the other party. He finally let go and opened the door.

    "Please come in."

    Xu Zhao invited people to the main hall. The table in the yard was full of clutter and had not had time to clean up. Even if Xu Zhao felt that the other party's reason for coming to the door was outrageous, he would not entertain the other party in the messy yard. .

    In the process of entering the kitchen to prepare the tea, I glimpsed the yard and sighed again, if the little housekeeper who was gradually nagging Bianyu was there, she would definitely mumble while tidying up.

    Xu Zhao narrowed his eyes, and a smile flashed quickly in his eyes, which was gradually replaced by helplessness.

    When he returned to the main hall with the brewed tea, the handsome cold-faced official had already begun to tell his story.

    In Xu Zhao's opinion, it is a very old-fashioned plot.

    That day, the city gate hurriedly glanced at the appearance of Bianyu. The more Zhou Shao thought about it, the more he couldn't fall asleep. There was no other reason, just because Bianyu's appearance was very similar to his grandmother when he was young. Anyone in the family saw Bianyu. I am afraid you will be surprised.

    Zhou Shao couldn't sleep, tossing and turning, and when he led the patrol every day, he unconsciously walked around Xu Zhao's house.

    After observing so three or four... five or six times, Zhou Shao finally handed out a fake note to Shangfeng, asking to go home to visit relatives, and finally got the fact from home that his little aunt once lost a daughter and looked like his grandmother. Very similar side words, most likely his cousin.

    "After repeated investigation and comparison of your wife's life experience, this possibility is even greater." Zhou Shao picked up the teacup and drank it.

    "However," Xu Zhao pointed out the problem sharply, "All of this is just your guess, Master Zhou, isn't it? If you look at looks alone, people who look alike in the world don't necessarily have to be related by blood."

    "Then , is the jade pendant worn by your wife enough proof?" Seemingly expecting Xu Zhao to refute, Zhou Shao took out the jade pendant he had worn since childhood.     The shape and shape of the jade pendant was familiar to Xu Zhao. After all, it was such a jade pendant that contained strong musk at the beginning, which made the little girl slip the child between ignorance and ignorance.     "This..." Xu Zhao stood up directly, his deep eyes full of disbelief, "It's exactly the same... No, it's still a little different."     "This is the unique jade pendant of our Zhou family, no matter male or female, at the time of birth. My father will always give one, the boy has the tiger pattern, and the girl     has the vermilion bird." "That day... I saw this jade pendant in the hands of Dr. Hu, and the one in your wife's hand was always mine. The little aunt passed it on to her." The     Zhou family's bad debts are another matter, so I won't list them here.











    Zhou Shao made a rare humorous joke: "Do I look like the kind of person who casually recognizes relatives?"

    Xu Zhao was still carefully looking at the jade pendant in his hand. Showing a fake smile: Thank you, that's what I actually thought half an hour ago.

    Zhou Shao: "..." Oh, sure enough, brother-in-law is a kind of annoying creature. The handsome official squinted his eyes and met Xu Zhao.

    The two men were deeply aware of each other's difficulties at this moment.

    Unexpectedly, an uncle who was rumored to be difficult to please will suddenly appear. Sure enough, life is like this... Xu Zhao slowly showed a smile.

    It was rare for Zhou Shao to keep up with Xu Zhao's brain circuit, and a smile appeared on his always unsmiling face: When my sister is found, you will still have some trouble.

    What Zhou Shao didn't tell Xu Zhao was that their Zhou family, a clean boy, was only a charming cousin like Bian Yu.

    So, not one uncle, there are two, three, four... so many.
