Chapter 171 The Lost and Found Treasure
"Pick the ugly ones, don't pick the small ones!"
Ning Xingyu looked at the tomatoes in the basket with disdain: "How can they be delicious if they are neither red nor green?"
Ning Jiaojiao: "What do you know? This variety is like this. The uglier it is, the more tomato-flavor it has. It's different from the bland tomatoes you buy outside!"
"I'm not available today. You guys should process these freshly picked vegetables and fruits later. Today, I'll let your little sister taste the vegetables I grew myself." After saying that, she straightened her clothes.
Ning Xingyu secretly complained in her heart. She knew her little sister was coming today, but she dressed up beautifully and even took out her most precious jade set to wear. She didn't even think the necklace was too heavy.
It's a pity that the two brothers had to work hard in the fields wearing suits and always be careful not to get mud on their trouser legs.
As for the shoes, they had given up long ago, since they were already covered in mud...
Is there any mother like this? She doesn't care about their life or death at all!
Ning Xingluo was stunned.
The person in charge and CEO of a world-renowned group, plus a well-known second-generation rich extreme sports enthusiast, is actually like this in private.
Ning Jiaojiao dressed up specially for today's occasion. On weekdays, she dressed much more simply in order to make it easier to go out.
As soon as she saw Ning Xingluo, Ning Jiaojiao smiled widely: "Oh, Xingluo is here, come on, stop busying yourself, you two, you are so grown up, don't you have any sense at all."
Pei Yuhan was stunned for a moment. He had known President Ning for so many years, but this was the first time he saw him being so overly enthusiastic.
Is this still the iron lady who appears to be as calm as a chrysanthemum on the surface but is decisive and ruthless in the business world?
--------------
After entering the villa, Ning Xingluo and Pei Yuhan sat down in the living room.
Ning Xingyi and Ning Xingyu were sent to work in the kitchen. There was a chef at home, but Ning Jiaojiao had to cook herself today, so the chef was given a day off, and the two brothers had to do the odd jobs.
"Let them be busy. Let's sit for a while. Come, have some tea. Xiao Pei, you should have some too."
Ning Jiaojiao and Ning Xingluo sat together intimately, pushing Pei Yuhan away, and she even poured tea for Ning Xingluo personally.
Of course, Pei Yuhan did not receive this treatment.
Ning Xingluo felt a little embarrassed. Ning Jiaojiao was too enthusiastic, but they had only known each other for a few days. She really couldn't call her mother. Calling her aunt didn't seem appropriate, and calling her President Ning seemed too unfamiliar.
She hesitated for a long time and could only say: "Please stop being busy. You don't have to be so polite."
Ning Jiaojiao immediately agreed: "Yes, Xing Luo is right, you don't have to be too polite with your family."
Her attitude, as if whatever my precious daughter said was right, made Ning Xingluo even more uneasy.
Seeing that his wife was embarrassed, Pei Yuhan quickly exchanged a few words of greeting. As they chatted, they somehow brought up the matter of Ning Xingluo's disappearance.
"At that time, surveillance and the Internet were not as advanced as they are now, so it was very difficult to find him. We have never stopped looking for him over the years."
But there was no clue at all. It was only after they found Ning Xingluo and reviewed Ning Xingluo's experience that they realized that Ning Xingluo had been abandoned in a remote town at the beginning.
There was only one welfare home in the small town, which had to be temporarily closed for a period of time due to various reasons, so the children were transferred to an welfare home in the provincial capital.
The files of the small town welfare home were not properly preserved, and some were lost during the transfer process, including Ning Xingluo's.
Later, because of the point-to-point assistance policy, Ning Xingluo returned to Hai City by chance and grew up under the eyes of the Ning family.
But the Ning family had already conducted a comprehensive survey of Hai City by then, and the focus of the investigation had expanded to outside the province, so they just missed it.
The more Ning Xingluo listened, the more frightened he became.
Although the original owner had clearly stated that this body was her own, the Ning family could not find her because she was not in this world.
But Ning Xingluo had just learned everything from the original owner when Pei Yuhan appeared, interrupting her train of thought. In addition, she was busy arguing with Pei Yuhan and forgot about it.
So much so that she didn't confirm it immediately after waking up from the dream.
It was not until now, when Ning Jiaojiao brought it up again, that she realized how many problems there were involved.
What Ning Jiaojiao said was almost the same as her own experience. That point-to-point assistance policy was a turning point in her life. She would never remember it wrong, but that was all before she came into this world!
The plot of the novel, which had already become blurred, suddenly became clear in Ning Xingluo's mind.
As written in the book, the original owner's childhood experience was completely different. She was able to get to Hai City entirely on her own, and there was no policy support at all.
Didn’t the original owner say that Ning Xingluo was not here during that period of time? Then how come there were any traces of her here?
Is it that she has been living in a novel and is a character in the novel, or is it that the novel exists because of this world?
There is also the information that the original owner inadvertently revealed... Ning Xingluo is not really stupid, it’s just that some things are beyond her cognition, so she will subconsciously avoid them. This is a form of self-protection.
Now it seems that she should have originally been from this world, but something went wrong and some supernatural force had to send her to another world.
Let the so-called "original owner" live in this world instead of her until the right time comes, and then exchange them back.
Even the existence of the original owner may have been created to make everything reasonable.
Otherwise why is she so inconsistent, seems to know a lot, and doesn't behave like the paranoid idiot she is in the novel.
This also explains why Ning Xingluo had a hard time connecting with other people in the first few decades.
Because that was not her world, and she was excluded by that world.
But the more she thought about it, the more confused her mind became.
Although she had long known that time travel and novels were not what she had originally thought, Ning Xingluo had never expected that her life would be so complicated. She had completely lost track of what she had been going through.
……
Ning Xingluo fell into his own thoughts and did not speak for a long time.
Ning Jiaojiao couldn't help but asked worriedly, "What's wrong, Xingluo? Don't be sad, we are reunited now, aren't we?"
Ning Xingluo came back to his senses, looked at Ning Jiaojiao in front of him, felt the warmth of Ning Jiaojiao's palm, and suddenly felt that it was a bit ridiculous for himself to worry about those illusory things.
"No, I'm not sad, I'm happy."
Compared to the unclear past, isn’t the real happiness in front of us more important?
At least one thing is certain now -
She is the child of the Ning family. At this moment, her soul and her body are completely Ning Xingluo, the Ning Xingluo of the Ning family.
"I'm really glad, Mom."
