40: Zero Yuan Purchase, a Big Bang

Chapter 229 Crooked



Chapter 229 Crooked

Wang Yulan and Yun Jiaojiao were very excited when they heard that they had reached the point, and they looked at each other.

"Jade token? Child? Let me ask, are you looking for a child? Coincidentally, I also found a child who also had a jade token on him. Thirty-five years have passed."

Wang Yulan spoke slowly, trying her best to control her emotions.

"What? You also found a child, a boy or a girl? Where did you find it..."

After hearing this, a man asked a series of questions.

"Boy, in ..."

After hearing what the woman in front of him said, the team leader looked the two of them up and down with a scrutinizing gaze and then fell into deep thought.

He remembered that when everyone was talking tonight, no one mentioned the child's specific age, gender and other characteristics.

This person was able to explain it in detail and didn't seem to be lying, but I have encountered many such situations before, so it is better to be more careful.

The leader thought of this and raised his hand to signal the others to stop talking. He looked at Wang Yulan and asked, "Where is the jade token now?"

"I don't have the jade token. Our family was fleeing from famine, and our valuables were stolen along the way, or were lost."

"Without the jade token, we don't know if you are lying to us?"

"Yes, the jade token is the only clue. We can't do it without it."

……

When the men here heard this, they started shouting.

Wang Yulan's expression remained unchanged at this time. She had already thought of this situation, so she came up with a countermeasure.

"Although the jade plate is gone, I still remember the pattern on it. I can draw it. There is also a word 'Li' carved on it."

The men here were already somewhat shaken when they heard what Wang Yulan said here. When they heard what Wang Yulan said next, they all showed excited expressions and believed a little more what Wang Yulan said.

"There is a birthmark on this child's body!"

"Hurry, draw the pattern on the jade plate and show it to me." The team leader asked the people nearby to find paper and pen and asked Wang Yulan to draw the pattern.

Wang Yulan took the paper and pen handed to her. After thinking about the pattern of the jade plate in her mind, she picked up the pen and started drawing on the paper.

How could Wang Yulan, an uneducated rural woman, draw? Even her pen-holding posture was wrong.

Because of nervousness, the hand holding the pen was shaking.

Although she hadn't seen the jade pendant for many years, she still remembered the pattern on it clearly.

According to her memory, she drew the pattern of the jade token crookedly on the paper.

After Wang Yuelan finished drawing, she looked up at the men in front of her. She saw them staring at the paper and couldn't help swallowing.

Several men picked up the pattern drawn by Wang Yulan and looked at it carefully.

Although Wang Yulan's painting skills were not very good, they could tell from these crooked patterns that they were similar to the ones their employer showed them.

"How about it? Is the pattern on your jade plaque like this?"

"The pattern you drew is very similar." The leader's tone softened.

"So where is this child now? Take us to find him."

"I don't know. We encountered the Japanese on the road and got separated while escaping."

As Wang Yulan spoke, her eyes became moist.

When the men heard the news, their faces changed. They had to be careful not to be killed by the Japanese.

Wang Yulan saw this and quickly said, "The couple and their three children have been separated from us."

As Yulan spoke, she pulled Yun Jiaojiao, who was standing nearby, over and introduced her to everyone.

"This is Jiaojiao, the second oldest of four children."

After hearing what Wang Yulan said, several men looked towards Yun Jiaojiao.

Yun Jiaojiao acted shy and hid behind Wang Yulan.

"The situation you described is very similar to the person we are looking for, but the final result still needs to be confirmed by the employer. Is the child you adopted the same one that the employer lost?"

"Of course, of course." Wang Yulan nodded in agreement.

The leader of the team quickly asked someone to bring some food and drinks to fill Wang Yulan and Yun Jiaojiao's stomachs and warm their bodies.

This situation made Wang Yulan and Yun Jiaojiao look at each other, knowing that they had safely passed this stage.

At daybreak, several men immediately took Wang Yulan and Yun Jiaojiao to the place where they were separated, to look for Yun Chengye and his companions.

When they arrived at the scene, the ground had already been cleaned up.

After searching in vain, they decided to take Wang Yulan and Yun Jiaojiao back to Shanghai to report to their employer before continuing their search.

For the next few days, Wang Yulan and Yun Jiaojiao could be said to have lived the most comfortable days since their escape.

They took Wang Yulan and the other person to the nearest city, sent a telegram to Shanghai, and then traveled non-stop using various means of transportation.

In this way, they spent several days to arrive in Shanghai.

On the Shanghai side, after their employer, Mr. Fang Lai Fu, got the news, the whole family became excited.

People were sent to wait for news at the train station exit every day.

As a metropolis, Shanghai is so prosperous that it is far beyond the imagination of Wang Yulan and Yun Jiaojiao, two low-income people living in rural areas.

As soon as they got off the train, they were invited into a car.

They had followed them in a carriage before because they were in a hurry to travel, and the train had already opened their eyes.

At this time, the two of them were sitting in the car, watching the street scenes passing by outside the window, which made them full of curiosity and shock.

The tall buildings, the busy streets, and the elegantly dressed crowds made them feel as if they were in a dream.

Not long after, the car stopped in front of a luxurious villa.

The car door opened and a steady middle-aged man came up.

"You two have come from afar, thank you for your hard work! My surname is Liu, and I am the housekeeper here. Please follow me, our master has been waiting for a long time!"

Wang Yulan and Yun Jiaojiao quickly got out of the car and returned the greeting, "Hello, Butler Liu!"

The leading man also got out of the passenger seat, while the other companions went back on their own inside the train station.
