The real daughter, she became famous all over the world by fortune telling

Peng Yikang took the scroll and read it carefully.

Afraid of seeing things inaccurately, he even opened his toolbox and took out the magnifying glass inside, not missing every detail.

After a long time, he nodded:

"Yes, this is made by my own hands. I polished the wooden shaft on this scroll myself."

"Every work I framed has a unique mark. I remember that this scroll should be an embroidered picture of a lady from a hundred years ago, a beauty in red dress and black hair in ancient costume."

"But the scroll is still there, but where is the embroidered image?"

Although Peng Yikang is old, his memory is not bad, not to mention that his framed works have always been mostly calligraphy and painting, and embroidery is rare.

There is no such thing as an embroidery that can be so lifelike, so it left a deep impression on him, and it is normal for him to remember it clearly.

When Shen Yueran heard this, she became excited and asked hurriedly:

"Grandpa Peng, do you still remember who asked you to frame and embroider the statue?"

If we can find this person, we might be able to dig deeper along this line and eventually find clues to the Totem Organization.

Peng Yikang frowned, recalled carefully for a moment, and said:

"The person who came to me was a young guy. I didn't know him, but he was introduced by a friend of mine."

A framer like Mr. Peng, who is a high-level framer, has no worries about making a living for a long time, and he is not completely open to business. If you want to find him for framing, you need an introduction from an acquaintance.

And it doesn’t mean you agree every time, it also depends on your relationship and face.

The acquaintance who could make Mr. Peng agree to take action must have an unusual relationship. Sure enough, the next second I heard him say:

"You should know this acquaintance. He is one of the three, four, and five families in Yuncheng, the head of the Zhou family, Zhou Boping."

The old man of the Zhou family is also a customer of Mr. Peng. The two have had a relationship for decades. Mr. Zhou acted as the middleman to introduce him, and Mr. Peng was reluctant to give him face.

After hearing this, Shen Yueran couldn't help but wonder:

"Head of the Zhou family? Isn't that Xiaozhu, your...grandfather?"

Pei Anzhu's expression at this time was also somewhat indescribable. She never thought that after all the twists and turns of things, she could be even remotely related to her.

The daughter of Zhou Boping, the head of the Zhou family, is Zhou Yalan, who married Pei Jinchang of the Pei family.

They are the biological parents of Pei Anzhu.

Mr. Peng was a little surprised and looked at Pei Anzhu with a slight look in his eyes:

"I had heard before that Lao Zhou had a granddaughter who was living abroad. I never thought it was you. No wonder you looked familiar to me when you came in earlier. You look very similar to Lao Zhou's daughter."

Pei Anzhu and Zhou Yalan look alike. This is not the first time she has heard this.

I still remember that Mrs. Shen, Shen Yueran's mother, discovered this and mentioned it to her later.

After hearing what Mr. Peng said, Pei Anzhu hesitated for a moment and said:

"Old sir, please forgive me. Although the Zhou family and I are related by blood, we are not actually close. To be precise, I have never met my grandfather."

The Pei family recognized her so that she could marry into the Feng family.

Although they had held a homecoming banquet for her before and introduced her to the celebrity circle, the Zhou family only sent a few juniors to attend, and Mr. Zhou did not show up.

So strictly speaking, Pei Anzhu had never met this grandfather at all.

After hearing this, Shen Yueran quickly changed the subject and begged Mr. Peng:

"Grandpa Peng, you're the best. Can you help us ask Grandpa Zhou who is the young man who came to you for the frame? This is very important to us, please!"

Very few elderly, loving people can withstand the coquettishness of younger generations. What's more, Shen Yueran is such a lively, obedient, sensible and well-behaved girl. When she acts coquettishly, Mr. Peng's heart immediately softens and he nods repeatedly:

"Okay, okay, let me ask you questions."

Mr. Peng dialed Zhou Boping's phone in front of them and turned on the speaker phone:

"Lao Peng? You are living well in the Buddhist temple. Why did you remember to call me? I have agreed beforehand that I don't have time to live in the Buddhist temple with you!"

"Old Zhou, you are not serious. Who wants you to live in a Buddhist temple together? I have something serious to ask you this time." Mr. Peng said.

"What's the matter that deserves your personal call?"

"I just want to ask, didn't you introduce a young young man to me and have an embroidered portrait framed here? I wonder if you can still contact this young man?"

"You have something to do with him?" Zhou Boping did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically.

From his attitude, everyone saw something strange.

It was just a contact information. He was not sure whether he could be contacted, but instead inquired about Mr. Peng's purpose. This was a bit strange.

Mr. Peng paused, glanced at Shen Yueran and Pei Anzhu, and then smiled:

"Oh, that's it. I want to ask him if he has any other embroidered statues. An old friend of mine is celebrating his birthday recently, and I'm looking for something unique to send to him."

Although books, calligraphy and paintings are also very valuable, it would be too monotonous to give these away every year.

This reason made sense. Zhou Boping didn’t think much about it, but said:

"Then let me ask you. His embroidered portrait is rare. One cannot be produced in a hundred years. I don't know if there are others. If I find out, I will tell you."

After the two exchanged pleasantries for a few more words, they hung up the phone.

Mr. Peng looked at the two juniors and said:

"I don't ask what you are doing to inquire about others. It's just that Lao Zhou didn't give me his contact information. Based on my understanding of Lao Zhou, if he didn't give it to me as soon as possible, then he would probably be using it as an excuse."

"So, I can only help you here."

Pei Anzhu had been mentally prepared before he came, and he didn't expect to find out the clues smoothly at once.

Nowadays, it is very rare to find Zhou Boping.

She smiled and thanked Mr. Peng, but was stopped by the old man. He said:

"No need to thank you. I didn't do anything. It was just a phone call. However, I have a heartfelt request. Can you leave this scroll you brought to me?"

What was originally out of his hands, now he wants to take it back.

"No problem." Pei Anzhu nodded immediately.

After losing the embroidered image, the scroll was just an ordinary object, and it was not enough for the Abnormality Bureau to keep as evidence.

Now it is normal to give it out to Mr. Peng as a favor.

Pei Anzhu saw Mr. Peng loading the scroll, then changed the subject and asked:

"Old sir, I heard that you have lived in Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple for a while. What do you think of this Buddhist temple? Is it really as effective as the rumors outside?"

Hearing this, Peng Yikang smiled and shook his head:

"Little girl, I don't know whether the spirit is effective or not. I only know that man can conquer heaven. Instead of praying to gods and worshiping Buddha, it is better to improve yourself."

"Although I study Buddhism, it does not mean that I am a believer in Buddhism. You are young, so it is best not to spend your time on these illusory things."

This is the earnest teaching of an elder, but it sounds somewhat meaningful.
