Chapter 551: Overwhelming Luck (10)_1
"Why do you ask?"
"Because I’ve just seen such a painting at the old lady’s house, marked from 1939 to 1945, and there’s a name behind it, Yuan Manman.
She guessed that Yuan Manman must have been a relative of the old lady, and if calculated by time, it was entirely possible that she was the old lady’s daughter, but she only lived to be six years old.
In those days, there were too few photographs, so it was entirely possible to use ink paintings instead.
"Where did you see it? Mom didn’t notice," Shu Jiao said, full of confusion. The Yuan Family had deep roots, and just the decorations and furniture in the hall, any piece of which was worth more than a poor household could earn in a lifetime, and there were several ink paintings; she really didn’t remember which one.
"It’s hanging in the stairwell, not very conspicuous." But she didn’t know why herself; she saw it at first glance.
Shu Jiao nodded, took the hat off her head, and gently combed her slightly disheveled hair with her hand, while responding, "Yes, the years marked represent the years she lived."

Having said that, she paused, "When you see the old lady in the future, don’t just ask." Such matters are often someone else’s scars, things they wish not to be uncovered.
"Mmm, I know," Ruan Jiaojiao nodded.

After this disaster, Ruan Jianguo thought about it and simply closed for business to reorganize for half a month. Furthermore, the store next door no longer wanted to operate, so he rented it, broke through the wall between them, and turned the store next door into several separate booths, a suggestion made by Ruan Jiaojiao.
