The wealthy tycoon wants to be the white moonlight of the little village girl

Chapter 280 Qinghe, don’t you recognize your grandmother?

Yan Shixun and Qinghe left the inn, got on a carriage and drove eastward.

About a meal's time later, the carriage drove into a large mansion and finally stopped in front of the second gate.

The housekeeper and the maid had been waiting here for a long time. They came forward and said with a smile, "The old lady is waiting for you two in the upper room. Please follow me."

Yan Shixun and Qing He followed him all the way to the upper room, and the housekeeper said, "Please wait a moment, let me go in and report."

After entering, she came out a moment later and said, "Please come in, our old lady is waiting for you two inside!"

The maid at the door opened the curtain, and after Yan Shixun and Qing He entered, they saw a kind and dignified old lady sitting on the couch, so they stepped forward and bowed respectfully, saying, "Greetings, old lady!"

The old lady smiled and said, "Thank you for coming all the way here. Please take a seat!"

Yan Shixun said: "Madam, we are here to look for a girl named Xiaoyue."

Unexpectedly, the old lady smiled and said, "My maiden name is Xiaoyue..."

At this moment, she saw Qing He and immediately revealed an expression of incredible shock...

Qing He stepped forward politely and saluted, "Hello, old lady. My name is Yao Qing He, and Qing Lin is my grandmother."

Unexpectedly, the old lady said to her excitedly: "Qinghe, I am your grandmother! Why don't you recognize me?"

Qinghe looked at Madam Jiang with a confused look on her face, thinking, this is the first time I come to your house, how could I know you?

Yan Shixun was also surprised, wondering if the old lady had recognized the wrong person.

Old Madam Jiang was so excited that she came forward and hugged her in her arms and cried, "Qinghe, where have you been for so long? Nian'er was almost going crazy trying to find you..."

Yan Shixun and Qinghe understood instantly: the old man's granddaughter-in-law was missing! Qinghe looked very similar to her, so the old man recognized the wrong person in a hurry.

Seeing the old woman crying so sadly, the two men couldn't bear to tell her the truth, so they could only comfort her reluctantly.

As a result, Madam Jiang held Qinghe's hand tightly, as if she was afraid that she would disappear again!

Yan Shixun had no choice but to comfort the old lady: "Madam, your granddaughter-in-law will definitely be found, but my cousin is really not her."

Unexpectedly, Madam Jiang said firmly: "No! She is my granddaughter-in-law, and my granddaughter-in-law is called Yao Qinghe!"

Now Yan Shixun and Qinghe were both dumbfounded!

The two thought: The old lady had a preconceived idea and immediately determined that Qing He was her lost granddaughter-in-law! So after hearing her name, she insisted that her granddaughter-in-law was called Qing He. This was a problem!

The two looked at each other, both feeling somewhat sad and helpless...

Yan Shixun had no choice but to ask patiently: "Madam, how old is your granddaughter-in-law this year? Where is she from? Does she have any habits or characteristics?"

Madam Jiang said firmly: "My granddaughter-in-law is from Qingtang Town, Qingfeng County. She fled here from other places. In addition to her widowed mother, there are two younger sisters and a younger brother in the family. She likes embroidery..."

Qing He said gently, "Madam, my family is from Tongcheng, and I live with my mother and grandmother. I have never been to the place you mentioned."

Madam Jiang frowned and asked, "Do you like embroidery?"

Qinghe nodded.

Madam Jiang said excitedly: "My granddaughter-in-law likes embroidery!"

Yan Shixun smiled bitterly and said, "Embroidery is originally a hobby of many girls. This doesn't mean anything... Think about it again, does she have any other characteristics?"

Madam Jiang looked Qing He up and down carefully, then slowly shook her head and said, "No! My granddaughter-in-law has no scars on her face..."

After more than a month of running around, the scratch on Qinghe's face had long since healed and only a faint red mark remained.

The two dared not say that the scar was newly made, fearing that the old lady would be more convinced that Qing He was her granddaughter-in-law. They could only look at each other and communicate with their eyes about what to do next...

Yan Shixun asked Qing He in the Huashu dialect: "Why don't we find a place to stay outside? It's understandable that the old lady mistook you, but what if her grandson also insists that you are his wife? If the matter is reported to the government, our identities will be exposed..."

Qing He nodded gently and whispered in the Huashu dialect: "That's it!"

Yan Shixun turned around and said with a smile: "Madam, we still have some things to do, so we need to go out for a while!"

Who would have thought that when Mrs. Jiang saw the two of them whispering to each other, she immediately understood that they wanted to get away!

Therefore, he refused to let them go no matter what!

She held onto Qing He's hand tightly and said, "No! My granddaughter-in-law finally came back this time! We can't let her go no matter what! If there is anything, the young master should handle it by himself! Qing He absolutely cannot go with you!"

Yan Shixun could only say with a smile: "She is really not your granddaughter-in-law. It is illegal for you to forcibly detain her like this..."

Madam Jiang said arrogantly, "Then go to the government and sue me! But don't even think about taking Qinghe away!"

Upon hearing this, Yan Shixun secretly groaned inwardly, "This is not good! It seems that the old lady is determined to take Qinghe as her granddaughter-in-law..."

Seeing that the old lady was so adamant and insisted on detaining her, Qing He was very scared. She was afraid that if the incident went to the government office, she would not be able to explain herself. So she had to coax and comfort her: "Old lady, we really have something to go out for... Please let me go first, and I will explain to you when I come back..."

Seeing her evasive manner, Madam Jiang became even more confused and thought to herself, "Is Qinghe probably threatened by this pretty boy next to her? Otherwise, why would she go along with him?"

The old lady shouted loudly: "Someone come!"

After a while, a maid came in from outside and asked respectfully, "What do you want, old lady?"

Madam Jiang ordered, "Send someone to tell the housekeeper! No one is allowed to go out today without my order! If anyone is allowed to go, I will hold him accountable! Also, send a pigeon to the young master and tell him that something urgent has happened at home and ask him to come back quickly!"

"Yes!"

The maid turned and walked out.

Finished!

Yan Shixun and Qing He both thought to themselves that this was not good and felt that it would be difficult to escape this time!

……

By the evening, everyone in the Jiang residence knew that the young lady had returned!

All the maids and old women were beaming with joy, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief!

Ever since the young lady disappeared, the old lady and the young master have been depressed, and even the servants have to be careful in what they say and do.

Now, the whole mansion is decorated with lights and is extremely lively. The old lady has also ordered that everyone will be given an extra three months' salary, plus a new set of clothes. Everyone is secretly thinking in their hearts: "If only the young lady could come back earlier! That way, even the New Year will not be so lonely..."

There are only two people who are unhappy here.

One is Xia'er, Qinghe's former personal maid, and the other is Jin Ling'er, an undercover agent sent by Concubine Jia.

After hearing that Qing He was back, the two were so frightened that they thought that this was the end...
