Reborn in the 1990s, I want my husband to live to be a hundred.

Chapter 221 Tracking

After Qin Wenxin left, Deng Xiuzhen still felt uneasy. After hesitating for a moment, she went back to her room and hid the card and the sales contract separately, not placing them together with the property certificate for the current house, which was hidden even more discreetly.

Only then did he lock the door and take Qin Yanlin out.

After leaving the house, Qin Wenxin didn't go far; instead, she hid in a corner. Seeing Deng Xiuzhen leave, she quickly followed.

Deng Xiuzhen and her companions walked, and so did Qin Wenxin. They took taxis, and so did she, following along. She saw Deng Xiuzhen visit several real estate agencies and construction sites. She silently took notes.

It wasn't until Deng Xiuzhen and the others took a taxi to the vegetable market near their home that Qin Wenxin rushed to the hospital: she had skipped class to come out for a follow-up examination, so she couldn't go without getting a result, could she?

When Qin Wenxin arrived at the hospital not far from her home, she was dumbfounded: it was past the hospital's closing time, and the radiologists did not work at noon; the emergency room could be reached by phone.

Her condition wasn't an emergency, so the doctor wouldn't call for help.

After a brief moment of panic, the quick-thinking Qin Wenxin immediately came up with a solution. She promptly took a taxi to the hospital where Yao Suying worked.

Yao Suying had finished get off work, but she had colleagues, and many of them had seen Qin Wenxin before and knew that this girl was Yao Suying's future daughter-in-law.

Qin Wenxin lied, saying she had to attend class and would rush over for a check-up at noon. Yao Suying immediately called a colleague to help arrange things. If she hadn't been cooking, she would have come herself; she was quite satisfied with this future daughter-in-law.

Coincidentally, the radiologist on duty did not leave; he was waiting in the department for an acquaintance to come for an examination.

With incredible luck, Qin Wenxin quickly completed the examination, took the results, and hailed a taxi home, where Deng Xiuzhen hadn't even finished cooking yet.

Qin Wenxin quickly helped wipe the table, set out the bowls and chopsticks, and serve the dishes.

"You're back? Why are you so late? How did it go?" Deng Xiuzhen asked while busy with her work.

"There were a lot of people, and the queue took a long time. The doctor said I'm recovering very well. As long as I rest, don't move around too much, and don't do heavy work, there shouldn't be any problems," Qin Wenxin replied.

After the meal, Qin Wenxin kindly told Deng Xiuzhen to rest while she washed the pots and pans and wiped the table until it shone.

When I was about to mop the floor, Deng Xiuzhen stopped me, saying that she had injured her ribs and shouldn't do these chores. She told me to hurry to school so I wouldn't miss my afternoon class.

Qin Wenxin obediently agreed, washed her face, and went out.

Deng Xiuzhen took out the information she had obtained from various real estate agencies that morning and carefully studied the location of the house and the name of the building complex.

In her previous life, she only stayed briefly in Shenzhen when she was helping Wenxin take care of her children, so she was not familiar with Shenzhen.

I vaguely remember that when Wenxin and the others were talking about housing prices, the prices of houses in some areas rose like they were flying off the ground.

She went to ask about those locations and the names of the properties today, but she didn't know if she remembered them wrong or if the development hadn't reached that stage yet, because none of the real estate agents seemed to know.

She had nowhere to verify it and couldn't say much, so she could only take it back and analyze it herself to see if she could recall some memories.

I spent an hour researching, but all I know is from an hour ago... It was all for nothing.

There was no other way but to go out and see for ourselves.

Qin Yanlin was not only unhelpful, but sometimes he also caused trouble. For example, when he went to the real estate agency in the morning, he broke a cup. When he went to the construction site, he was not careful and almost tripped and fell.

But she was worried about leaving him alone at home. So Deng Xiuzhen had no choice but to continue taking care of him.

Having learned from her experience in the morning, Deng Xiuzhen didn't walk in the afternoon either, but instead hailed a taxi right at the door.

The taxi stopped, and Deng Xiuzhen quickly got in and sat down, only to find that Qin Yanlin hadn't gotten in. Peeking out, she saw Qin Yanlin staring blankly at the entrance of a small shop.

"What are you doing? Get in the car! Hurry up!" Deng Xiuzhen shouted angrily.

"Okay," Qin Yanlin replied obediently and got into the car.

The car door closed, Deng Xiuzhen gave an address, and the driver started the car.

"I saw Wenxin," Qin Yanlin whispered, tugging at Deng Xiuzhen's sleeve.

"What did you say?" Deng Xiuzhen didn't hear clearly.

"I saw Wenxin." Qin Yanlin looked at Deng Xiuzhen, his eyes clear but timid.

"Wenxin? Where did you see her?" Deng Xiuzhen was taken aback and quickly asked.

"There, inside the convenience store," Qin Yanlin said, turning around and pointing to the back of the car.

Deng Xiuzhen instinctively craned her neck to look, but saw nothing.

"Did you really see Wenxin?" Deng Xiuzhen asked again. She knew that Qin Yanlin wouldn't lie now, but she was afraid that Qin Yanlin had seen something.

After all, Wenxin had promised to go to school, so why was she in the convenience store not far from home?

"Yes, it's Wenxin." Qin Yanlin nodded emphatically.

Qin Wenxin came out of the convenience store and ran home quickly.

She didn't want to go to school; she had already been admitted to university, and missing a few classes wouldn't affect her graduation at all.

But if she figured out her parents' assets, she could get a bigger share, or at least that's what she thought.

The streets at noon are different from those in the morning. In the morning, there are few pedestrians and only breakfast shops are open. At noon, not only are there many pedestrians, but all the shops are open.

If she hides furtively behind a tree or in the corner of the wall like she did this morning, she's sure to attract attention.

Especially since Deng Xiuzhen rarely comes out, if she keeps hiding there, some people might mistake her for a bad person.

Left with no other option, she went to the convenience store and bought some snacks. She told the owner she was waiting for someone and asked if she could sit there for a while.

The proprietress knew her and had even bought something from the shop, so she had no objection to just sitting there.

Moreover, what if Wenxin or the people she's waiting for can buy something else?

So she immediately said: Sit down, sit down, it doesn't matter how long you sit.

So Qin Wenxin sat by the door and peeked out.

She saw her parents come out and quickly hailed a taxi. She was about to go out and hail a taxi to follow them.

Looking up, she found Qin Yanlin staring in her direction, and she quickly shrank back in fright. Her heart was pounding like a drum, terrified that Qin Yanlin had seen her and would tell Deng Xiuzhen.

Fortunately, they all got on the bus and left, and she dared to relax, only to realize that her palms and forehead were sweaty.

When Qin Wenxin got home, she first tried to open Deng Xiuzhen's door, only to find it locked as always.

Despite her curiosity, she didn't dare to break into her parents' house.

After thinking for a moment, she quickly went out, took a taxi to school, and knew she had to attend class that afternoon!

As soon as the car stopped, Wenxin jumped out and ran quickly toward the school gate.

As soon as she arrived at the school gate, she saw Deng Xiuzhen and Qin Yanlin coming out of the security room.

Deng Xiuzhen was looking at her with icy eyes, which made her shiver involuntarily. She was so nervous that her mind went blank, and she didn't even know how to call her parents.

"Look at you, you're all sweaty. Remember to use a tissue to cool off later so you don't catch a cold," Deng Xiuzhen said with a smile.

"Mmm-hmm," Wenxin responded repeatedly, snapping out of her daze.

"Then hurry up and go to class, don't be late." Deng Xiuzhen said gently, keeping a smile on her face.

Qin Wenxin walked towards the classroom in a daze, her mind repeating the same few words over and over: "It's over, Mom knows!"
