The Legitimate Daughter Returns: The Real Daughter is Reborn

Chapter 304 Traces of old friends can be seen everywhere

 “Is the jade pendant important to you?”

Zhang Yang asked casually, not expecting Tano to say anything.

But I don’t know if not finding the jade pendant was a big blow to Tano. He actually opened his mouth and said: "With that jade pendant, I can save my brother and the others."

Zhang Yang frowned a little. Is that jade pendant so capable?

 Maybe it’s some kind of token.

　　Tano closed his eyes and his voice was low and weak, "I want to take a rest alone."

 I think I want to be alone for some quiet time.

 Zhang Yang did not speak, but quietly left the room.

 Outside the house, Zhang Laozheng was playing with the herbs drying on the shelf.

 Zhang Yang walked to Mr. Zhang and helped sort out the herbs.

“Grandpa, I asked someone to ask. It seems that Tano was one of the group of people who assassinated King An.”

"Assassinate King An?" Mr. Zhang's tone was a little more serious, and his face changed slightly. He had naturally heard of the assassination of King An, "Is there anything else?"

"Besides him, the Forbidden Army should have arrested six people."

 “Do you know your identity?”

“I sent someone to check, but there’s no news yet.”

 Zhang Yang shook his head.

 Lao Zhang arranged the herbs and went to another hut.

 There are a lot of dried and processed herbs inside.

There are many medical books and tools on the table.

 Zhang Yang saw Mr. Zhang taking several herbs and throwing them into a stone cup, and then began to grind them.

“Grandpa, what are you going to do?”

 There seems to be no patients who need medicine recently, right?

 Zhang Yang thought about it and had no impression.

 “I’m worried that Tano will do something stupid.”

 Lao Zhang rubbed the medicine and returned calmly.

Zhang Yang felt more and more strange. He approached Mr. Zhang and said, "Grandpa, why do you take care of Tano so much?"

 “He…may be acquainted with an old friend of mine.”

 “How do you know?”

 Zhang Yang asked in surprise.

 If they really knew each other, why didn’t grandpa tell Tano?

 Mr. Zhang seemed to not want to hide it from Zhang Yang anymore. He walked to the cabinet on one side, took a small brocade box over, and then opened it. There was a jade pendant inside.

 Subconsciously, Zhang Yang thought of the jade pendant that Tano was looking for.

“Grandpa, this jade pendant…”

“I saw it from Tano, otherwise you would think that I would get involved in this kind of thing when I’m old.”

 Zhang Laoke could see that Zhang Yang had always been worried about the incident where he saved Tano.

Probably because of what happened when he was a child, no matter how suspicious he is in his heart, this child is always kind on his face.

Coupled with this slightly immature face, it is even easier to convince people.

“That’s it...Grandpa, Tano also asked me to find this jade pendant, saying it can save lives.”

 Zhang Yang told Mr. Zhang what Tano said without any concealment.

 Lao Zhang rubbed the jade pendant, thought deeply for a moment, and held it in his hand. "I don't know what the purpose of this thing is, but if Tano says so, it's better to give it back to him."

Then what were you hiding before?

Zhang Yang thought to himself, if he didn't say that this jade pendant was important to Tano, would it be possible that grandpa wouldn't want to return it to Tano?

 Sometimes he really doubted, could his old friend be someone his grandfather liked?

You must know that grandpa has never married a wife in his life.

Although he wanted to return it to Tano, Mr. Zhang did not go there immediately. Instead, he waited for the medicine to be grinded, then tidied up his clothes and went to the house where Tano lived.

 Zhang Yang followed Mr. Zhang, always feeling that his grandfather treated this jade pendant more seriously than he treated other people.

"Mr. Zhang, I...will leave and won't involve you!"

Seeing Mr. Zhang come in with a serious face, Tano knew that his assassination of King An could not be concealed, and thought that Mr. Zhang was going to drive him away.

Tano struggled to get up, but was unable to do so.

 Lao Zhang stretched out his hand and slowly spread it.

 On his rough palm lay the jade pendant that Tano was looking for.

Tano's struggling movements stopped and he stared at the jade pendant for a while, confirming that it was his jade pendant.

 “This jade pendant…”

Tano raised his eyes and looked at Mr. Zhang. He didn't think Zhang Yang had found it.

 It's more like it was taken away by Mr. Zhang early in the morning.

"You were unconscious at that time. I didn't want to care about you, but I saw this jade pendant. This jade pendant is exactly the same as that of my old friend."

 Lao Zhang’s tone was a bit sighing.

My old friend is no longer around, but traces of her can be seen everywhere.

 It seems that he is indeed connected with his old friend.

Zhang Yang lifted his forehead. Grandpa looked like he was clearly feeling happy again.

If this old friend wasn't someone Grandpa liked, he would... just eat all the herbs outside!

Tano's eyes widened slightly after hearing Mr. Zhang's explanation. Old friend?

This jade pendant…

He stared at the jade pendant for a long time. Brother Fanyu gave it to him, saying that he could get help by going to the Treasure Pavilion with this thing.

As for the origin of the jade pendant, he didn't know.

But he also knew that this jade pendant should belong to the Xi tribe. Could it be that Mr. Zhang’s old friend was also a Xi tribe member?

Thinking of this, Tano's eyes flashed. He couldn't tell anything about the Xi clan.

"Mr. Zhang, this jade pendant is very important to me. Can you return it to me? I will repay you after I recover from my injury."

“If I need you to repay me, why should I save you?”

 Lao Zhang could tell that Tano was hiding something, but he didn't say much and put the jade pendant on Tano's pillow.

“You put this jade pendant away, and I won’t ask you any other questions.”

 “…Thank you, Mr. Zhang.”

Tano stretched out his hand and held the jade pendant tightly in his hand with difficulty.

 My heart gradually calmed down.

As long as the jade pendant is still there, there is still a chance!

 After lunch break, Su Leyun went to Zhou's house to meet Qin Xiu.

 The Zhou family’s current residence was given to them by Su Leyun.

However, Su Leyun only gave him an empty house, and Qin Xiu added the things inside.

 Qin Xiu is a good wife who knows how to live a good life. The originally empty house has now become alive.

“Le Yun, do you think it’s okay for me to dress like this?”

Qin Xiu tugged at her clothes uneasily. These clothes were newly made by her.

She always has to go out to attend some occasions. If she still wears the same clothes as before, she will definitely be gossiped about.

Su Leyun raised his eyes and saw that the brown color made Qin Xiu look somewhat dignified, and the fabric was not bad, which was enough for such an occasion.

 “Very good, this dress suits you very well.”

"That's good."

Su Leyun's tone was sincere, which made Qin Xiu breathe a sigh of relief.

Qin Xiu turned around and asked Yaya to put on the jewelry for herself, finally packing it up.

Before leaving home, Qin Xiu became worried again.

 “Le Yun, if it were me…”

Su Leyun took Qin Xiu's somewhat cold hand, and the warm feeling spread to it.

 Let Qin Xiu gradually relax.

“Since you have become the wife of the number one scholar, you should be prepared to endure this, but you don’t have to be afraid. Otherwise, wouldn’t you be looking down on your family’s number one scholar too much?”

Qin Xiu seemed to understand, but also didn’t seem to understand.

 But my heart suddenly relaxed.
