Chapter 145 Mother and Daughter's Night Talk
He Yuru shook her head. "Manager Lin himself didn't know what was going on. The man in black only said it was a special thing and that it was indeed very effective. After he used the powder, the mold on the wood he bought disappeared overnight."
Yun Yuke seemed to have some ideas, "Where is Manager Lin now?"
“At the Yun residence in Xin’an City,” He Yuru replied quickly. “However, Boss Yun, Manager Lin’s condition is not good. When we found him, his health was already very poor. The doctor took his pulse and said that things were really not good.”
Yun Yuke nodded and continued reading. The statement also recorded other things.
Manager Lin said that he had run away to seek refuge with the man in black and had been following his organization for the past few years.
“Boss Yun, look closely here. Manager Lin said that he followed the organization of the men in black and did all sorts of swindling, cheating, and human trafficking.”
"What kind of thing is this? This is utterly despicable!" Yun Qingjin exclaimed from the side.
“In recent years, there have been more and more cases of human trafficking. Manager Lin really felt something was wrong, so he ran away from there. He also said that he felt that doing such things was too immoral, so he found an opportunity to run away from there.”
He Yuru specifically pointed to the record behind the confession.
Yun Yuke snorted, "So it was because he knew he was going to die, rather than realizing he was wrong."
"That's right."
He Yuru continued, "In short, Boss Yun, I rushed to deliver these things to you mainly because I was afraid something might happen. Manager Lin also said he hoped to tell you about this situation as soon as possible, and also hoped that I could convey his apologies for all these years."
“Thank you, Yu Ru,” Yun Yu Ke said, carefully putting away the statement. “This information is really important and crucial to me. When he left, I did see some special liquid in the house where he stored timber. I had some suspicions at the time, but I didn’t have any evidence to prove it. Now that it can be proven, it has indeed solved a lot of problems.”
Although He Yuru's arrival was sudden, it wasn't impossible for the capital to receive her.
It just so happens that today is the Lantern Festival. Business people don't usually go to lantern fairs, and everyone in the Yun family has other things to do, so they all went to bed early.
It seemed that Yun Qingjin and her daughter Yun Yuke both had something to talk about, and they understood each other without saying a word.
After dinner, he went straight to Yun Yuke's study.
"Mother, I..."
"Qingqing, I..."
The mother and daughter smiled at each other; it had been a long time since they had been so in sync.
"Qingqing, you go first." Yun Yuke pulled her daughter to sit at the table.
"I've made all the preparations for the opening of Spring As If It Were Open. I've also personally visited every customer in the capital who has ever bought from our store to promote our products. We should be able to open smoothly."
Yun Yuke nodded. "You went to those special families too, right?"
"They went, especially to the Marquis of Changxing's residence," Yun Qingjin confirmed.
"Qingqing, are you... alright?" Yun Yuke asked softly.
Since Qingqing told Yun Yuke about her rebirth, Yun Yuke felt amazed by the world, but she felt more heartbroken for what she had experienced in her previous life.
Before opening the shop in the capital, Yun Yuke specifically asked Yun Qingjin if she wanted to come along. If she really minded meeting with people from her past life, then Yun Yuke would not force the child to come to the capital.
Yun Qingjin had already recovered from the shadows of her past life, and was naturally very willing to go to the capital to run her business.
"Don't worry, Mother, I'm fine. I don't care about those people anymore. They have no proof that I'm their daughter, so I can just deny it."
“Mother, do you remember when we caught the murderer in Zhangjia Village? The plum blossom jade pendant and the other waist tag you found on him? Actually, I had never seen these things in my previous life, but the pattern on the jade pendant was indeed the style used by my biological parents.”
Yun Yuke naturally remembered the things she had touched back then. "I guessed they were yours at the time. How are those two things now?"
“I’ve decided not to acknowledge the family anymore, so I’ve ground off all the marks on the jade pendant and jade plaque. I also wrapped them with some gold wire. Now one piece is a gold-inlaid jade pendant, and the other piece I’ve polished into a small jade sword.”
When the matter was being discussed, Yun Qingjin took out the jade pendant that she had already modified.
"Okay, not bad."
Yun Yuke recalled her daughter's modification of the jade pendant. Although she still felt excited, now that they had actually met in the capital, she wondered if her daughter would have other ideas. So she asked again.
"Now you've seen these same people again in the capital..."
Yun Qingjin said nonchalantly, "I was indeed a little excited when we first met, but I'm not so affected now. However, speaking of this matter, I do find it a bit strange."
"what happened?"
"The daughter who was adopted by my parents and took my place, whom I told my mother about, is named Xie Mingli. I feel that she may also be a reincarnation."
"Why do you say that?" Yun Yuke asked curiously.
Yun Qingjin told Yun Yuke about how Xie Mingli stopped her at the entrance of the Marquis's mansion today and checked her sleeves.
This naturally includes the fact that Xie Mingli had been staring at her whenever she came to shop from her hometown during the previous six months.
"Her eyes were full of surprise, shock, and confusion. You see, I am now stronger than in my previous life, and the reason she grabbed my sleeve today to look at my left arm is because in my previous life, when I was learning to be a 'thin horse' under the madam's care, the madam once splashed hot soup on my left arm. I had tried to cover up this scar in my previous life, but it was still discovered by the personal maid of the Marquis of Changxing's mansion."
Yun Qingjin speaks of her past life with great ease now.
“That maid was sent by Xie Mingli. After learning about this, she deliberately found an opportunity to scheme against me and make me lose face in front of outsiders.”
Yun Yuke pulled her daughter's arm. The child didn't have any scars now, but thinking about what she had been through, she couldn't help but feel sad.
"Xie Mingli knew I had scars on my arm, so when she subconsciously wanted to confirm my identity, she used this method. But in this life, I was raised very well by my mother, and I didn't have the slightest bump or bruise on my body."
Yun Qingjin continued to explain.
Hearing these words, Yun Yuke suddenly remembered what happened back then.
"No wonder someone went to Pingyang County to inquire about you, and someone even went to Xin'an County to post missing person notices... I never expected that there was more than one person who was reborn."
Yun Yuke also pieced together everything that had happened before.
"Don't worry, Mother. I haven't been dealing with the Marquis of Changxing's mansion for nothing these past six months. Xie Mingli was the Crown Princess in her previous life, but for some reason, she's suddenly not interested in becoming the Crown Princess in this life. She's already engaged to my husband from my previous life, Gu Tinghui, and we'll get married when Gu Tinghui returns from his trip. I, her own daughter, won't have to sacrifice myself for them."
