Wu Chao: Take the whole family to escape the famine

Chapter 1032
Judging from the sky, it's not yet noon.

Only then did Wang Qiu remember the money Meng Fan had given her just now. She had not had time to look at it in her sleeve pocket, so she didn't know how much it was.

When she took it out, she saw that there were actually 500 taels, which was beyond her expectation.

When she set out from Taogou Village to find her relatives, she stole all the money at home, which was only 18 taels. She never thought that Brother Meng Fan would give her 500 taels as soon as he took action. But she stayed in Taogou You can't make money in a hellish place like the village in a few lifetimes.

Brother Meng Fan is so generous to him, it must be because he likes her.

Wang Qiu held the banknote and was filled with joy.

Now that you have so much money, how should you spend it? First buy two pairs of beautiful clothes and jewelry, and then have a good meal.

Wang Qiu made up his mind, put away the banknotes properly, and went out happily.

After wandering around the street, I spent 50 taels of silver and bought a lot of my favorite things. I felt so beautiful.

Especially a bracelet I bought for a huge sum of 20 taels. I liked it no matter how much I saw it. I kept raising my wrist to look at it happily without looking at the road.

"Ouch."

Suddenly, I felt that I bumped into someone. I hurriedly covered my painful forehead and raised my head hurriedly.

"I'm sorry, girl, did it hurt you?" The other party was also a girl and was the first to apologize.

If Mu Xiaoyou were here, he would definitely recognize her.

She is none other than Murong Jiao, the eldest lady of Yongsheng Trading Company.

Murong Jiao was distracted just now and didn't look at the road, so the two of them bumped into each other.

Wang Qiu habitually opened his mouth to curse, a habit developed in the countryside, but when he looked up and saw that Murong Jiao was dressed quite elegantly and took the initiative to apologize, he also apologized politely.

Murong Jiao was shocked when she saw a bump on Wang Qiu's forehead.

"Yo? Girl, look, I knocked your forehead out. I have to take you to see the doctor."

When she raised her hand to comb her hair, she happened to turn her head, causing her forehead to swell.

Wang Qiu touched his forehead and found it rare to be reasonable.

"I didn't look at the road just now. I can't blame you."

"It's okay. You don't need to see a doctor. It will go away in a while.'

Seeing Wang Qiu's magnanimity, Murong Jiao felt a little embarrassed. When she saw that Peng Lai Restaurant happened to be next to her, she said to Wang Qiu: "Can we have lunch, miss? How about I treat you to dinner as an apology to you?"

Seeing that Murong Jiao looked like the daughter of a wealthy family, Wang Qiu naturally wanted to make friends with her. She smiled and said, "What a coincidence. I'm also planning to find a place to eat. How about I treat you?"

"How about that? I'll treat you." Murong Jiao waved her hands hurriedly.

Wang Qiu originally intended to make friends with her, so he rolled his eyes and said, "How about we talk about your age? Whoever is older will be invited."

"Okay, I'm 17 years old." Murongjiao said as she walked into the lobby of Penglai Restaurant.

"I'm seventeen, too." Wang Qiu followed closely behind, and the two of them went upstairs while talking.

Murong Jiao walked in front and turned around to ask: "How old are you?"

"August."

"I am August too. We are so destined. When were you born?"

"August [-]th Mid-Autumn Festival, what about you?
Murong Jiao almost cheered when she heard this.

"Ah? How could there be such a coincidence? We were born on the same day in the same year and month."

Wang Qiu blinked her eyes in disbelief. Is her fortune about to change?
On the way, I met Brother Meng Fan, who took her to Beijing for free, and gave her 500 taels of silver without any hesitation.Here, I unexpectedly met a little sister who was born on the same day, same month, and same year. She was a young lady from a wealthy family.

She has suffered in the countryside for more than ten years, and now she is finally about to turn over?
Wang Qiuzheng was moved when Murongjiao took her arm and suggested happily.

"Girl, what's your name? Since we are so destined, why not meet a sister?"

Murong Jiao is innocent and kind-hearted, but she attaches great importance to good fortune.

Although she and Wang Qiu don't seem to have a close affinity, isn't the fate of being in the same year, same month and same day not deep enough?
"Okay!" This hit Wang Qiu's fancy, and he hurriedly replied: "My name is Wang Qiu, what's yours?"

"Murong Jiao, my father is the big boss of Yongsheng Trading Company." Murong Jiao said bluntly, "What about you? Your accent sounds like a foreigner."

"Well, I came to Da Qi." Wang Qiuye told the truth, "I came to the capital to find relatives."

"Looking for relatives? Then maybe I can help. I know the capital best."
Having said that, they had arrived at the private room on the second floor. The two of them sat at the table and continued drinking tea and chatting after ordering food.

"Sister Wang Qiu, what are you looking for in the capital?" Murong Jiao looked at Wang Qiu with a smile.

"Looking for my biological parents." Wang Qiu looked sad. "I was abducted to Daqi State by someone when I was born, and sold to a poor mountain village. My adoptive mother only told me the truth after she passed away."

When Murong Jiao heard this, she felt sorry for her and comforted her, "Don't worry, sister Wang Qiu, you will definitely be able to find your biological parents."

"Yes." Wang Qiu nodded, "I won't go back if I can't find my biological parents, until I find them, hehe."

Murong Jiao joked, "Then why not just find someone to marry in the capital? Then you will have more time to look for someone?"

Marry? Wang Qiu thought of Meng Fan. If she wanted to marry, she would marry someone like him. She would rather be single to marry an ordinary person.

After a silence, he took out the jade pendant around his neck and showed it to Murong Jiao.

"Sister Jiaojiao, this is the jade pendant my parents left me. Do you know which jewelry store sold it?"

Murong Jiao came over and took a look at the jade pendant, and said in surprise: "Huh? The texture and craftsmanship are very similar to those of Jinhong Jade Shop."

"Really?" Wang Qiu was overjoyed, "Then can we still find out who bought this jade pendant?"

Murong Jiao held her chin in thought.

"Jinhong Jade Shop is a century-old brand. The jade in it is of the highest quality and most of them are custom-made. However, it may be difficult to find out where the items sold 17 years ago can be found.'

"How about I accompany you to ask after dinner.'

"Okay, here's Sister Lao Jiaojiao." Wang Qiu happily agreed. Anyway, she had a little clue.

Although they had just met, the two of them enjoyed the meal quite harmoniously.

They were both the same age, and Wang Qiu wanted to be sisters with Murong Jiao, so naturally they could chat together.

After eating, Murong Jiao and Wang Qiu went to Jinhong Jade Shop.

"Uncle shopkeeper, please take a look. This jade pendant is sold by your jade shop?" Murong Jiao held up the jade pendant around Wang Qiu's neck and showed it to the shopkeeper.

After looking at it carefully, the shopkeeper nodded and said, "Yes, it is indeed sold by our shop."

"Can you still find someone to buy this jade pendant?" Murong Jiao continued to ask.

"How long ago was it ordered? If the goods are within a year, there should be a deposit stub."

"Seventeen years ago." Murong Jiao replied.

The shopkeeper shook his head when he heard this, "It was so long ago? How can you find it?"

Wang Qiu felt a little sad after hearing this. Murong Jiao gently patted her shoulder, and they walked out of the shop together.
