"Although too much time has passed, no matter what evidence, it has disappeared."

"But I don't know if it was God's deliberate arrangement that took the initiative to send clues to me..."

Lu Beicheng played with Jiang Ruyi's fingers and continued: "Do you remember that before we came to the capital, a batch of old things I purchased overseas happened to be delivered to China?"

"Remember." Jiang Ruyi nodded.

The two of them originally planned to go to the warehouse of the collection hall to have a look the next day.

But because of her biological mother Liu Xiujun's incident, the schedule was temporarily changed and she didn't have time to see her.

Lu Beicheng clicked on his phone, pulled out a retaken photo, and handed it to Jiang Ruyi.

"A few days ago, the warehouse sent me photos of the storage of these old items. One of them was an old photo of an old street in the capital taken decades ago..."

"I stumbled upon something interesting up there."

"Look...can you see anything up there?"

Jiang Ruyi enlarged the black and white photo on her mobile phone and scanned it from left to right.

Sudden……

Her eyes stopped at the teahouse on the right side of the photo.

At that time, teahouses with transparent glass windows were already very representative of western style.

The key is that through the glass window, she saw two young women sitting opposite each other.

The profile of one of them looked a bit familiar.

Jiang Ruyi's mind turned around and she suddenly exclaimed: "Fuck me, this person is not my own grandma..."

Apart from anything else, her own grandmother is quite confident in her appearance.

When she was young, she was a typical beauty with good bones and a very folded face.

Nowadays, as we get older, collagen is lost, but the superiority of our bones can be seen even more.

Fu Shaozhong's facial features and profile are mostly inherited from his three-dimensional exquisiteness.

Lu Beicheng smiled and nodded, "You guessed it right."

"This is a photo that a foreigner took casually in Beijing. Later it was purchased by an overseas private collector. Now, it is in my hands."

"When I first saw the photo, I thought it looked familiar, but I didn't expect it to be on your grandma."

"Two days ago, I suddenly saw an old photo on the Fu family's photo wall. There was a profile photo of your grandma when she was young. It was exactly the same as this photo."

"After comparing and confirming, I am sure that this is your grandma."

"Then I looked for some photos of Ye Wanyi when she was young, and found that the woman opposite was her."

"And the most amazing thing is that this photo was taken just the day before Ye Wanyi suddenly disappeared..."

"So, I can't help but suspect that your grandma contributed to Ye Wanyi's departure..."

"Actually, your grandfather went to see Ye Wanyi early the next morning, but he told the servant who used to take care of Ye Wanyi from Fu's house that she was in a bad mood and had gone to her hometown to pay homage to her parents."

"Your grandfather took it seriously and chased after her. When he realized something was wrong and rushed back to the capital, there was no trace of Ye Wanyi."

"And that servant immediately returned to Fu's house to resign after your grandfather left, saying that her daughter-in-law had given birth and she wanted to go back to her hometown to raise her grandson..."

"When your grandfather went to her hometown and found her, she cried and said that Ye Wanyi forced her to say this because she didn't want the young master to find her... But where she went, the servants didn't know..."

"Because of this, the servant felt that he was sorry for the Fu family and the young master, so he took the initiative to resign due to self-reproach."

Jiang Ruyi was stunned, "If Ye Wanyi wants to leave, maybe she will do so..."

Lu Beicheng nodded, "Most people will think so, including your grandfather, but who am I?"

At this point, he paused, deliberately showing off.

It seemed like Jiang Ruyi would not continue unless she gave him some benefit.

As soon as Jiang Ruyi heard this, she knew there was a twist. She shook his arm and said softly: "Oh, my dear brother, please stop trying to impress me. Just tell me..."

Lu Beicheng smiled with satisfaction and then said, "I never have hope for the bottom line of human nature. I don't believe a word of what that servant of the Fu family said."

"Besides, things in this world are so coincidental sometimes."

"When I looked up the name of the servant's family, I found that her daughter-in-law happened to be a maid in the Lu family in Hong Kong City for a period of time."

"Why I remember it is because her daughter-in-law's name is very interesting. It's called Du Qiyan, which is homophonic to belly button. My grandfather told me a joke when I was a child, and I remembered it immediately."

"I asked people from Hong Kong City to find the records of the Lu family's servants and confirm that Du Qiyan is the servant's daughter-in-law."

"I didn't expect that she is still alive now. I asked people to follow the clues and finally found her today."

"Just now, my people sent me a video, saying that there was a new discovery, but I haven't had time to watch it yet..."

When Jiang Ruyi heard this, she became a little anxious, "Oh, come on, come on, let's watch it together."

Lu Beicheng clicked on his phone and opened the video just sent by his subordinate.

He was actually also curious, what did the servant's daughter-in-law know?

In the video.

An old lady in her eighties was sitting on a deck chair in the small yard and basking in the sun.

After hearing the visitor's question, she remained silent for a long time, then opened her somewhat withered mouth and said slowly:

"The Fu family? Of course I remember, that was my mother-in-law's old employer in the capital..."

"I heard that she treats her servants well and pays her monthly salary generously. Many people in our village envy my mother-in-law."

"Back then, my mother-in-law, who was doing a good job, suddenly returned to her hometown from the capital and said she would come back to help us take care of the baby. I had just given birth to my baby at that time, and I needed someone around me, so I didn't think much about it."

"But not long after, she suddenly got an unexpected fortune. After that, she said she would take our family to the south to enjoy happiness."

"One of her little sisters over there wrote to her and said that life in the south is like paradise, and there is gold everywhere, and you can pick it up by bending down..."

"Then we went all the way south, but we were unlucky. All our belongings were robbed before we reached the south. Her little sister saw our poor family and was disgusted."

"In the end, we had no choice. Under the introduction of her little sister, we smuggled to Hong Kong City to help the wealthy families there..."

"But I remember that not long after, my mother-in-law suddenly had another sum of money in her hand. She mysteriously told me that she had hooked up with a noble man, and she would no longer have to work hard for others, and there would be a steady stream of money. The money came in..."

"After that, she became obsessed with gambling, and it didn't take long for her to lose all her money... But not long after, she had money in her hands again, and she went gambling again..."

"After several times, her temper gradually became more and more irritable, and the money she received became less and less..."

"She told us no, she wanted to go back to the mainland to find that noble man. She was kind to that noble man. He is now leaping over the dragon's gate. She can't burn bridges like this..."
