“Open your eyes and take a good look. This is the young master of your residence.” Song Jinghuan took a step forward.
Looking at the figure in front of him, Liu Jinbao felt an inexplicable urge to cry.
The servants were stunned. They looked at each other and laughed out loud.
After laughing enough, the tall servant pointed at Liu Jinbao and said, “She said that this person is the young master of our residence.”
“What a joke.” The other person’s face was also filled with mockery. He glanced at the two of them. “Before you impersonated him, you didn’t ask around. Our Liu residence has Eldest Master and Second Master, but there’s no Young
Master.”
The tall man corrected him. “Eldest Master is already gone.”
“Ah, right, right. There’s only Second Master in our residence now.”
The Second Master that the servants were talking about should be the second son that Liu Jinbao had mentioned. He was the son of Song Jiayue, who had been doted on by Old Master Liu since he was born.
Eldest Master naturally referred to Liu Jinbao’s father.
This was the second time he had heard such words from someone else today. Liu Jinbao grabbed the tall servant’s collar. “Say it again. What happened to my father?”
No matter how distant they were, he was still his biological father.
The tall servant was shocked by his reaction. When he reacted, he wanted to break free from his grip in embarrassment. However, although Liu Jinbao looked thin and weak, his grip was not weak. The servant struggled a few times, but he could not break free. Instead, his face turned red.
At this moment, a stern voice came from the residence. “You’re so noisy. Do you all want to quit?”
A middle-aged man in mourning clothes walked out with a group of guards.
Another servant quickly explained, “Manager Liu, these two people are causing trouble here. Yan San and I are about to chase them away.”
Liu Jinbao stood at the foot of the stairs. Yan San blocked him, so Manager Liu could only look at Song Jinghuan.
Due to the journey, she was in a sorry state. Manager Liu thought that she was here to ask for money. After all, the Liu family was one of the richest families in Qingping Town. This was not uncommon.
Normally, he would have instructed the servants to chase them away, but he was in a good mood today. It was rare for him to be so kind as to dig out a piece of silver from the pouch at his waist.
“The residence is holding a funeral today. I don’t have time to argue with you. Take the silver and get lost.” With that, he threw the silver at Song Jinghuan’s feet.
Song Jinghuan glanced at the middle-aged man in front of her. She had seen this person once when she and her sister-in-law came to the Liu residence to sell chickens. He was the butler of the Liu residence.
However, compared to five years ago, Manager Liu looked much fatter.
Coupled with the fact that she was still a little girl back then, it was normal that the other party did not recognize her.
She didn’t say anything and only turned to look at Liu Jinbao.
Manager Liu thought that she wasn’t satisfied and was about to scold her for not knowing what was good for her before instructing the guards to chase her away.
“Uncle Liu.” Liu Jinbao let go of Yan San and stood up.
Manager Liu swallowed his words and looked in the direction of the voice.
At first glance, the person looked familiar. He took another look and his pupils constricted.
“You…’
He was speechless for a long time.
Actually, Liu Jinbao had changed a lot in the past few years. He had grown a lot taller and his facial features had become more prominent. However, he was still a child he had watched grow up. No matter how much he had changed, he could recognize him.
Song Jinghuan saw his reaction. Logically speaking, since something had happened to his master in the residence, he should be happy to see his young master, who had not returned for many years, return at this time.
However, when Manager Liu recognized Liu Jinbao, he was clearly in disbelief and fear. How could he be happy at all?
Song Jinghuan frowned. As far as she knew, the reason why Liu Jinbao returned was because he had received a letter from the Liu family. Looking at Manager Liu’s reaction, could it be that he didn’t know that someone had sent a message to Liu Jinbao?
She glanced at the people Butler Liu had brought. Song Jinghuan’s sharp eyes noticed that a follower in mourning clothes standing behind Butler Liu was looking at Liu Jinbao with excitement. She thought of something and her eyes darkened again.
While she was thinking, a roar pulled her back to reality.
“Nonsense. My father usually doesn’t drink at all. Why would he lose his footing and fall into the water? Even if he fell into the water, are all the servants useless or dead?”
Manager Liu said, ‘Master usually doesn’t drink, but the day before the accident, Master and Old Master quarreled for some reason, causing the already seriously ill Old Master to faint from anger. Old Master and the others guessed that Master might have drank two cups because of this matter, but in the end..
Because the masters were in a bad mood from the argument, they chased away all the servants. He was already weak from alcohol, but he used alcohol to drown his sorrows. When he fainted, he accidentally lost his footing and fell into the water. It was late at night, so when the servants realized it, he was already dead..
