Transmigration: Getting Rich with My Space and Supplies-Chapter 164 - 160 So Stupid It Hurts

"Wait a minute... let me think..."

He really felt the face was familiar, but he just couldn’t remember where he had seen it before.

Mr. Qin felt that they were on the right track, and since he was quick-witted, he hinted, "The familiar face you’ve seen might not be her in person, it could also be her child..."

He had heard from the old man that when she left, she might’ve been pregnant!

And sure enough, this hint really opened up Tie Zhu’s mind.

He suddenly thought of someone,

"I think this person looks a lot like my brother’s dad."

Of course, he had never met Qin Ye’s grandmother; after all, she had passed away a long time ago. When she died, he was probably still who knows where, possibly getting pushed around like a dog.

"Who is it?" Mr. Qin’s expression was somewhat excited. Over the years, helping to look for people, there had been many false leads, but whenever they went to confirm, they would return disappointed.

This time, he somehow felt they would find the person.

Tie Zhu was shocked by his excitement and wondered if he had said something wrong?

"... let me take a closer look."

Damn! It really does bear a resemblance.

When Mr. Qin’s father was young, he was a handsome guy known throughout the local area, and he had even been a soldier, quite capable back then.

Even though the family was not well-off, with a wicked stepmother, he had heard that there were many girls who wanted to marry him back then; it was just unfortunate that in the end, he married someone from out of town.

Suddenly, Tie Zhu remembered that Qin Ye’s dad indeed had a father, so surely the person they were looking for must be him.

Otherwise, according to what this man said, wouldn’t it mean that Qin Ye’s dad wasn’t actually born to Grandpa Qin Ye?

The complex relationships tangled his brain.

"... it seems a little like him, and a little not."

Mr. Qin: ...

Whether it looked like him or not, having such a clue was rare, and he felt it would be better to meet the person, especially since he had been delayed here for quite a long time.

Without any more useful leads, he was also ready to return to Beijing.

He had been out for a long while and still had many things to deal with back home.

"Could you take me to meet him first?"

When Tie Zhu heard this, he almost wished he could slap himself for being so talkative.

With a reluctant face, he said, "It’s not that I’m willing to take you there, it’s that my brother’s dad has been dead for many years."

Mr. Qin frowned upon hearing this, "Then take me to meet your brother. I really appreciate it because this is very important to me and our family. And rest assured, whether it’s him or not, I won’t cause any inconvenience to your brother’s life."

Tie Zhu: ...

With things put that way, it seemed like he couldn’t refuse.

With a hesitant and restless heart, he relented with a nod, "Alright then!"

On second thought, considering how the Qin Family had been so bad to Qin Ye’s family, maybe... just maybe the person they were looking for actually wasn’t blood-related.

The moment this rebellious thought materialized, Tie Zhu increasingly felt like the possibility wasn’t entirely without merit.

Otherwise, how could a real grandfather be so cruel to his own flesh and blood? Something was distinctly wrong here!

When Mr. Qin saw he agreed, he became a bit impatient, "Why don’t we go right now?"

Hearing this, Tie Zhu thought, is there really such a rush?

But still, he nodded, "... Sure."

Mr. Qin turned to the person beside him, "Luo Cheng, go borrow a vehicle."

Luo Cheng immediately nodded, handed the wild ginseng back to Mr. Qin, and set out.

Mr. Qin looked at the wild ginseng in hand, feeling it wasn’t quite right to hold onto it.

"Brother Tie Zhu, please keep these safe for me for now."

Tie Zhu: ...

Are you sure it’s appropriate to leave such valuable things with me?

Nonetheless, he nodded, "Okay."

He took the wild ginseng and figured he’d better find a place to store it safely lest it get gnawed on by rats, which would not be good.

Half an hour later, Luo Cheng returned.

As soon as Mr. Qin saw him return, he couldn’t wait to head outside.

Seeing that it was a tractor, the corner of his mouth twitched.

"Mr. Qin, it’s hard to borrow a car in this town. The only one was taken to the county for a meeting."

This tractor was what he had borrowed from the agricultural station.

"Alright!" Given the local conditions, it wasn’t like they couldn’t manage.

The front seat could accommodate two people, so he sat down beside it.

Of course, Luo Cheng was the one driving the tractor.

And Tie Zhu, very conscientiously, stood in the back bed of the tractor.

When their tractor arrived at Qin Ye’s family’s place, Rong Yan had just gotten there.

"Mr. Rong," Mr. Qin had already found out Rong Yan’s last name from Tie Zhu while on the road.

"How come you..." came over? Rong Yan hadn’t even pushed her bike through the gate when she saw the buyer - she was somewhat surprised.

Could it be that he regretted buying those three wild ginseng plants?

Just at that moment, Tie Zhu jumped down from the back bed of the tractor.

"Sister-in-law, it’s like this, Mr. Qin has some business with Qin Ye. Is Qin Ye home?"

Rong Yan didn’t expect that they had come to find Qin Ye, and she said, "Let’s talk inside." Because she also didn’t know if Qin Ye was home at that moment.

After all, when she left, Qin Ye hadn’t come down from the mountain yet.

Just as her words ended, the door opened.

The person opening the door was Qin Ye, who, seeing his wife arrive, immediately went out to take her bicycle: "Wife, let me handle this."

Naturally, Rong Yan let go and stepped to the side.

But Tie Zhu, seeing the man pushing the bicycle inside, couldn’t help but be speechless. Did this guy only have eyes for his wife? Didn’t he see them?

Was the presence of three living men so negligible?

Not to mention the huge tractor parked at the door.

Rong Yan’s gaze lingered on Mr. Qin for a moment, then she said, "Let’s all go inside."

"Okay," Tie Zhu walked in.

Only then did he notice the courtyard was clean and tidy.

Different from last time he came, which wasn’t too long ago, but this time... there was a feeling of liveliness, one might say human warmth.

It wasn’t as deserted as before.

"This is..."

It was his first time seeing this middle-aged woman.

She looked a bit like Qin Ye’s wife.

"This is my mother-in-law," Qin Ye introduced her.

"Hello, mother-in-law..." Tie Zhu was a bit flustered, so he got his words mixed up.

Rong Yan: ...

Madam Rong: ...

Tie Zhu’s call drew a sharp glance from Qin Ye, who is he calling mother-in-law?

Realizing belatedly what he had said, Tie Zhu suddenly felt awkward; he was about to die of stupidity.

"I mean... Hello, auntie. I’m a good buddy of Qin Ye, my name is Tie Zhu. You look so young."

No wonder she could have such a beautiful daughter; the mother’s looks were indeed not bad.

Madam Rong found this man quite interesting, "Thank you, please have a seat, I’ll go pour some tea for you."

With that, she left.
