In the reception room.
Mrs. Wu Lan, dressed in formal clothes, is sitting on a vine chair, reading a newspaper.
"Ma'am, deputy governor Xi is here." Secretary Shen said clearly in a low voice.
Mrs. Wu Lan raised her head.
"Hello, madam." Xi Zeyao immediately stepped forward, approached, saluted and said hello politely.
"Good deputy governor Xi." Mrs. Wu Lan smiles a little and raises her head to the reception chair beside her
"Thank you, ma'am." After bowing down to salute, Xi Zeyao sat down carefully on one side with a smile on his face.
"Vice governor Xi is so well-informed that he even knows about my stay in a city." Mrs. Wu Lan put down the newspaper gracefully, half joking and half joking.
Xi Zeyao's face was a little astringent as if he had been climbed by Ma Yi.
But his shrewd eyes did not have any discomfort, but more respect, smiling.
"My wife is a heroine among women. I have always admired her. Therefore, I have always been more concerned about her movements." Xi Zeyao said very respectfully.
Mrs. Wu Lan said with a smile, "thank you for your compliment. I just don't know what vice governor Xi wants from me? "
"Where, where!" Xi Zeyao said humbly with a flattering smile, and then asked, "madam, do you remember me?"
"You?" When Mrs. Wu Lan heard this, she was surprised. She raised her head and looked at Xi Zeyao. She had seen Xi Zeyao on the TV news once or twice. As for knowing him, she didn't have this memory in her mind. Now she just shook her head.
Wu Zeyao had known for a long time that Mrs. Wu Lan would not remember him, but if we really want to mention it, we should still have some memories. After all, that day was really meaningful for her and Mo Lingfeng.
He slowly took out a handbag from his arms. The handbag was old-fashioned, but it was very delicate. It was rose red. Mrs. Wu Lan thought it was familiar when she saw it, so she fixed her eyes on it for a moment.
Then Xi Zeyao slowly and carefully untied the rope on the Dai Zi, and a beautiful lady's watch from the period of the Republic of China appeared in front of Mrs. Wu Lan's eyes.
She watched carefully, and her heart began to tremble.
"How can you have this thing?" She asked in a rustling voice, her face discolored.
Now it's Xi Zeyao's turn to relax. He has a very friendly attitude with a smile.
"Madam, when you and master Mo left Mo's mansion that year, I sent you." Xi Zeyao's words were very euphemistic. He didn't say that he was driven away or that he was ordered to drive them away. Instead, he just used the word "send" and his attitude was more and more easygoing.
Mrs. Wu Lan's face changed. She looked up again at the man in front of her.
This man should be a little younger than her. He's about sixty years old. He's just the age when he's a high-level politician. He's really familiar with her features.
"So it was you that day?" Mrs. Wu Lan asked in surprise.
She remembered that when she was driven out of Mo's house that day, Mo Lingfeng was beaten and it was not convenient to walk. It was the people around Mr. Mo who drove them out, but that person didn't embarrass them. He even took a lot of good things from home to give them, including the purple clay pot that Mo Lingfeng loved.
It turns out that Xi Zeyao used to be the man beside mo. when he thought about it, his face lightened a lot, and there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.
"It's me." Xi Zeyao observed the changes on Mrs. Wu Lan's face and immediately admitted it. After packing the watch in a bag, he presented it with both hands and said respectfully, "madam, I took it out of the young master's room that day. I left it in a hurry. Later, when I handed it to Mr. Mo, he didn't even look at it. He just told me to throw it away It's a pity to have lost such a delicate watch. I thought I would return it to you when I had the chance, so I treasured it for you. I didn't expect that I would have the chance to return it to you in person until today. Although I'm sorry, I've finally returned it to its original owner, and I've done a little bit of my best. "
Xi Zeyao spoke with both voice and emotion.
Mrs. Wu Lan's face gradually eased, and even her voice became cordial. She reached out her hand and nodded her head to thank her
"It should be, it should be." As for Mrs. Wu Lan's change, Xi Zeyao looked in his eyes and felt happy in his heart. He responded modestly and politely.
Mrs. Wu Lan took the watch and turned it over again. This is exactly the token Mo Lingfeng gave her at that time. At that time, she thought she had lost it, but unexpectedly, it was collected by someone who had a heart.
Now I hold it in my hand, and I think of my daughter again. I feel empty and uncomfortable.
"Is there anything else on your mind, madam?" Seeing the desolation in Mrs. Wu Lan's eyes, Xi Zeyao asked with concern.
"Well, to tell you the truth, I came to city a just to find my daughter. Now I haven't heard from her for so many years." Mrs. Wu Lan sighed and said with a heavy heart and some loss."Oh," Xi Zeyao nodded and said, "yes, madam, things have been going on for so many years. Now it's really difficult to find someone. However, madam, don't worry. I'm very familiar with city a and I have contacts. Well, I'll help you find out. Maybe I'll get something unexpected."
He said it sincerely and enthusiastically. Mrs. Wu Lan was not good at brushing him, so she had to smile and nod, "thank you."
For Mrs. Wu Lan, no matter what way, as long as she can find her daughter, this is what she wants most urgently.
Xi Zeyao was like a mirror in his heart. As he imagined, he didn't come in vain today. He not only met Mrs. Wu Lan, but also gave her a favor. His goal had been achieved, so he stood up at the right time.
"Madam, it's a great honor to meet you. For so many years, I've always wanted to see you so that I can return this watch to you personally, but I haven't had a chance. Today, I finally got what I wanted. So my heart is relaxed, and I've finally finished something. I won't disturb you. Goodbye." Xi Zeyao said with a look of relief and a smile on his face.
"Thank you very much. I'm very kind." Mrs. Wu Lan's face was also full of grateful smile, "Secretary Shen, send Vice Governor Xi to you."
"All right." Secretary Shen replied.
"Not really." Xi Zeyao was very modest. He turned to think of something and added, "madam, you don't have to worry too much about your daughter. Now that I know this, I will pay attention to it. Please rest assured that Mrs. Wu Lan's mother and daughter will be reunited."
After that, Xi Zeyao bowed 45 degrees to Mrs. Wu Lan, and then he stepped back.
"Ma'am, do you think he just wants to send the watch?" After Xi Zeyao left, Secretary Shen looked at his back and asked softly.
In her eyes, Xi Zeyao seems too smart, and he is now in a sensitive period of competing for the governor. At this time, he is suspected of flattering Mrs. Wu Lan when he comes to offer her a watch. However, he is very crafty. When he comes here today, there is no explicit requirement. On the surface, he just comes to return Mrs. Wu Lan's token of love Already.
It can be imagined that Xi Zeyao is indeed a shrewd politician with high intelligence and high level of skill.
Now it's Mrs. Wu Lan who owes him one.
Mrs. Wu Lan took off her glasses and narrowed her eyes. There was a smile at the corner of her mouth. She had been in the officialdom all her life. How could she not understand the intentions of these people? If she couldn't see their thoughts, she would be in vain.
"Xiaoshen, if Xi Zeyao can keep a keepsake of love between Mo Lingfeng and me for decades, then this person's mind is not so deep. Only these ambitious politicians can have such an impenetrable way of conduct and mode of thinking. You say, how can such a person who has a mind just rush over from the capital to send this back to me What about watches? " Mrs. Wu Lan said with an enigmatic smile.
Secretary Shen nodded.
"Well, I just didn't expect that I would come to city a this time, but my hope was lost again." Mrs. Wu Lan thought about DNA, and her face was even more unpredictable. "Well, arrange time for me. I'm going to see granny Ruan tomorrow night, and then I'm going to go back to my house first."
"All right." Secretary Shen knew that the current situation was tense, so he agreed immediately.
Mrs. Wu Lan has been out for a long time this time, so it's time to go back, otherwise there will be more things piled up.
"Dad, what's up? Have you seen Mrs. Wu Lan? " As soon as Xi Zeyao went to the elevator, Xi Yuxuan, who was waiting outside, met him and asked nervously.
Xi Zeyao said with a smile, "boy, you don't see who is coming. If you can't see him, she will definitely want to see me when I come. Otherwise, her life will be in vain."
Xi Yuxuan a listen to the face showed surprise expression.
"Dad, what did you talk about? Do you want to ask her for help? " Xi Yuxuan couldn't help but ask.
Xi Zeyao took a look at him, shook his head and walked towards the elevator.
Xi Yuxuan followed closely.
"Yuxuan, you are too young. You really need to learn this." After the elevator door closed, Xi Zeyao said earnestly.
Xi Yuxuan Leng next, some unknown, so.
"You don't know anything about the world." Xi Zeyao had a look of displeasure on his face. "The first time you meet someone, you ask for it. Can they treat you well? No matter how to say, we should cultivate our feelings first. "
Hearing this, Xi Yuxuan suddenly realized and nodded, "it's just dad, we're pressed for time now. If we don't mention it now, I'm afraid it will be too late."
"No, this time I let Mrs. Wu Lan completely cut off her hope of finding a daughter. If it's not unexpected, she will go back tomorrow. As for the next time, I can personally tell her the news and make her excited. In this way, she will accept my love again." Xi Yuxuan sophisticated said, said he laughed."Tell her in person?" Xi Yuxuan asked in surprise, "do you want to personally tell her that Wu Xiuping is her daughter?"
After hearing this, Xi Zeyao laughed with disapproval.
"Why not? After she left this time, I don't know when she will come back to city a next time. At that time, my big business has already been completed. Why don't you tell her? " He said with a curl of his mouth.
Xi Yuxuan Leng Leng, back to God, understand the meaning of Xi Zeyao, also smile.
"Yuxuan, I'll tell you, I didn't come here in vain this time. Mrs. Wu Lan will certainly accept my love today." Xi Zeyao said with some satisfaction.
"Really?" Xi Yuxuan was surprised.
"Of course." Xi Zeyao laughed, "at least the next time I have something to see her, she is embarrassed to refuse."
Today, it's an unforgettable thing for Mrs. Wu Lan that he delivered the watch skillfully. He has this confidence.
When Du Yuxuan heard this, he felt at ease.
As long as they can't recognize their mother and daughter for the time being, it's also a good thing. At least they have been given some time.
