Reborn Leisurely Landlord

Chapter 169 The Big Secret

"What are you saying is true?!"

Song Zhaoting and Song Yayi glanced at each other, flashed with surprise, joy, and a trace of imperceptible greed.

Song Jincheng saw that his father and aunt's expressions were wrong, and asked anxiously: "Dad, that little girl can't really be a relative of our family, right? That's too bad. Now that grandpa is seriously ill, he unexpectedly came out with such a cheap relative."

After Song Zhaoting heard this, there was a trace of disdain in his eyes: "What kind of relative is she? It's just the daughter of a woman who was kicked out. Even if she wants to come back, your grandfather may not be willing."

Song Jincheng was stunned. He didn't know much about the grievances of the previous generation. He only heard a few words from his father and aunt vaguely on weekdays. Naturally, he didn't know what kind of relationship Zhang Qingwan had with Mr. Song.

"Don't say it's Song Yaru's daughter, even if Song Yaru came by herself, the old man might not like to see her. Didn't you see that your uncle's family has been kicked out by your grandfather now? The big house has lost power, and your grandfather now values ​​us. One, you don’t have to worry about property distribution.”

Song Yayi was very clear about her nephew's thoughts. She knew that he had long been planning to take advantage of the Song family's property, otherwise she would not have planned to cause Song Jinyu's family to be kicked out of the house by the old man.The old man's health is getting worse and worse now, and the hospital also said that it's only been a year or so, that's why she let her nephew be so unscrupulous.

But now that Song Yaru's daughter was delivered to him, he couldn't blame her.Song Yayi sneered in her heart, and looked at Song Zhaoting: "Second brother, this matter needs to be discussed in the long term."

Song Zhaoting naturally knew what Song Yayi was talking about, so he nodded.

Seeing his father and aunt acting mysteriously, Song Jincheng felt a little baffled. Thinking of what they were discussing without telling him, he felt itchy in his heart. He pulled Song Zhaoting and said anxiously, "Dad, what's going on here?"

Song Zhaoting still wanted to hide it, but when Song Yayi saw her daughter looking at her helplessly, she smiled helplessly and explained: "The girl you mentioned should be the daughter of your sister-in-law."

"Ah?" Song Jincheng didn't expect this to be the case, he was a little depressed, how could this kind of plot happen to him.

"I think since she is able to come to Beijing and have a relationship with the Zhao family, we can't just sit idly by like this. We have to find a way to recognize her as a relative and treat her kindly." Song Zhaoting was shrewd and made some calculations Stakes, said.

"What? It's fine to have such a cheap relative, but treat him kindly? Dad, did you make a mistake?!" Song Jincheng was the first to be unhappy, what kind of thing is this?
Seeing that his son was so restless, Song Zhaoting couldn't help but feel a little discouraged: "Why have you worked in the company for so many years, and now you are in charge of your own shop, why haven't you learned to be more prudent? Do things recklessly, don't use your brain Talk nonsense when you think about it, make a mess and let others wipe your ass, when will you be more mature?!"

Song Jinyu was reprimanded by his father in front of his aunt and third sister, and his face flushed immediately. He was ashamed for a while, so he could only lower his head and listen to Song Yayi.

"That little girl is probably not easy. She has ivory carvings from the Ming Dynasty and top-quality jadeite materials in her hands. I think Song Yaru must have found that secret. Otherwise, where did she find those things as a little girl?!"

Song Yayi immediately thought of this answer, and felt that it was definitely not accidental that Song Yaru went missing with that box of antiques back then.

"What's the secret?" Yuan Sulian's eyes lit up when she heard an interesting word, and she interjected.

Song Zhaoting pondered for a moment, then raised his head: "That's all in the past. Back then, the Song family got a batch of antiques, and there was a box in that batch of antiques, which contained a whole box of orphan books. We didn't care about it at the time. Your grandfather accidentally discovered that there is a shocking secret hidden in that box of orphan books."

Hearing this, Song Jincheng ignored the embarrassment of being reprimanded just now, and quickly raised his head to listen.

"It is said to be a treasure map, but I have never seen it." Song Zhaoting said, "When your grandfather and some old friends were appreciating the batch of antiques, they found a piece of silk in a book. The silk There was a map drawn on the silk. One of the old friends at that time was an archaeologist, and after studying it, he was sure that it was a treasure map, but the map was only a quarter of the original map."

It doesn't matter if it's a quarter or not, when Song Jincheng heard the words "treasure map", his whole body became excited like chicken blood.

"Where is that picture? Did Grandpa keep it? Can you find the treasure at that location?"

Seeing his son's excited face, Song Zhaoting really didn't want to hit him: "The treasure map is lost."

"I'll ask grandpa to come and see... huh? Lost it?!" Song Jincheng was still dreaming of getting rich when he was woken up by a basin of cold water, staring at his father with wide eyes in disbelief.

"Well, it was lost without anyone noticing. Your grandfather suspected that it was Zhang Qingwan's hands and feet, so he questioned her, and the lady denied it. Your grandfather was very angry at the time and beat the lady severely. The child in his stomach Because of this, she disappeared. The eldest lady went back to her mother's house in a rage, and never entered the Song family's door again." Song Yayi was talking about the old things back then, feeling a sense of loss in her heart and a gloomy look on her face.

She is also Zhang Qingwan's daughter, but when Zhang Qingwan left with his youngest daughter, Song Yaru, she never thought about her situation.If she hadn't humbled and flattered the second wife in those years, I'm afraid her life would have been very difficult.It is precisely because of this that she resents Zhang Qingwan and blames Song Yaru for her fault.

"It must be the treasure map they stole! The lady must have become greedy after seeing the treasure map, so she wanted to monopolize those treasures!" Song Jincheng understood after thinking for a while, "She Deliberately angering Grandpa, I just want to take the opportunity to leave the Song family, and then go find those treasures alone!"

It's not that Song Zhaoting didn't doubt the situation Song Jincheng said, but later he accidentally heard the conversation between his father and mother outside his father's study, and he knew the whole story.

Those antiques were originally the relics of Zhang Qingwan's father. After Zhang's father passed away, he left everything to the eldest wife Zhang Qingwan, but his father planned to take those batches of antiques for himself.

The eldest lady didn't notice it at first, but when she found out, she realized that most of those antiques had been sold by her father and turned into white money.The eldest lady was very angry and quarreled with her father.As a result, the father was so angry that he actually beat the eldest lady, causing the child in the eldest lady's womb to have a miscarriage.The eldest lady didn't even sit on the confinement, she led her young daughter and left the Song family.As a result, the batch of orphan copies disappeared.

Song Yayi didn't know about this, she only knew that there was a treasure map hidden in the batch of orphan copies, and her mother ran away with the batch of orphan copies in a moment of greed, leaving her in a dilemma at the Song family.

Naturally, Song Zhaoting would not tell Song Yayi about this, and now that Song Yayi was on his side against her brother, he naturally wished for it.If she were to know that the antique copy originally belonged to the Zhang family, Song Yayi would probably turn against her.

Song Yayi saw that her brother was silent for a while after hearing Song Jincheng's words, and she was filled with resentment.Thinking that her mother was so greedy, she deserved to be harmed by the Cultural Revolution, but her younger sister disappeared, no matter how much she asked, she couldn't find her.Presumably she must have fled elsewhere with that box of orphaned copies.

"It's been quiet for so many years, does she think that we won't be suspicious if she sends a child out?" Song Yayi sneered, "Leave your tail on things and wait for us to catch them, our little sister is not a smart one. That's not bad. , she has no brains, so we are not afraid that she will come up with other ideas! It is much easier to deal with! She wants to monopolize those treasures, and it depends on whether we agree or not!"

Song Zhaoting thought about the level of the Zhao family, and hesitated: "Now this matter is a bit tricky, and the Zhao family is not easy to mess with. It should be more or less hidden, so don't let people catch it!"

Song Yayi sneered for a while: "The Zhao family's meddling is too lenient. When we drag the little girl to recognize his ancestors, this is our own business. Are we afraid that the Zhao family will interfere? Could it be that the Zhao family is still thinking about it?" A piece of the pie?"

A trace of doubt flashed in Song Zhaoting's eyes, and he replied: "It's not impossible. The Zhao family's foundation is not something we can destroy. If our little sister can climb into their house, maybe it's just because of worrying about it. Find someone with a strong background to do it." With the backing, this matter will become more legitimate, and I won't be afraid of others making troubles."

Song Yayi didn't care about the Zhao family or not, she waved her hands and said impatiently: "Whatever the Zhao family is, anyway, let's find a way to get the girl to recognize her relatives first, and then enter our Song family's door. Are you afraid that you won't be able to deal with them? Besides, what you said, second brother, is completely overwhelmed. No matter how stupid Song Yaru is, it is impossible for her to have a showdown with the Zhao family about the treasure map. If so, she will be powerless, right? Want to be eaten to death by the Zhao family?"

After thinking about it, Song Zhaoting felt that he was worrying too much. Even if Yaomei and the Zhao family could establish a relationship, it would be impossible to disclose the treasure map. It is estimated that their relationship with the Zhao family is just a casual acquaintance.

If this is the case, my family will take the initiative to make friends with the Zhao family and give some benefits, maybe they will open up the relationship with the Zhao family, cooperate with the Zhao family, and get the treasure.

Thinking of this, Song Zhaoting's eyes became hot for a while, he glanced at his son and Yuan Sulian, and said in a deep voice: "It's okay if you don't know about this, since you already know about it, just keep your mouth shut and don't let you Big brother knows! He is a true relative of the Zhang family, if he finds out about this, there may be other troubles! Your grandfather had better not talk too much!"

Song Jincheng also knew the importance of this matter, and nodded repeatedly: "Sanmei and I will never say a word about this matter!"

Seeing his promise, Song Zhaoting was relieved, and thought of another thing, and told him: "Since that girl is not from BJ, now that she is in BJ, we should take this opportunity to check her affairs carefully. If If we find out something, let's make plans early!"
