Interstellar Number One Farmer: I Only Want To Farm!

Chapter 647 - 196: Top-Tier Gossip (Part 3)

Good servants are never traded, but every wealthy person knows that there is such a good servant in someone’s family.The Ji Family and the Xue Family have maintained close cooperation after their union through marriage.

You should know this person.

Ji Li indeed knew Aunt Li from the Xue Family, and he remarked, "This person, in my impression, has a great personality, warm-hearted, diligent, and takes comprehensive care; besides Yi Xue, she cares for Xue Zhiyi the most. You could say she’s another mom to Xue Zhiyi."

"She’s dead, and the Xue Family didn’t react?" Su Xiaocai didn’t know this person; it was Fei Yi who told her the news.

Xiang Qian also didn’t know; he hadn’t investigated that far.

Whether the Xue Family pursued an investigation into Aunt Li’s death, Porlin surely knew; this is not considered a secret and should be able to be revealed.

Su Xiaocai said, "Let’s first talk about the orphanage intelligence, and I’ll ask the police station later."

The orphanage gossip, no, it’s intelligence, with a lot of implication for personal matters, piqued Su Xiaocai’s increasing interest.

"Where did I stop just now?" Xiang Qian patted his forehead, "Right, asking the servant about the adoption matter back then, there was great certainty that it was to adopt you, the boss, because you were clever, lovely, beloved by all, and perhaps had already forged a good bond with the Ji Family."

Xiang Qian winked at Ji Li, but his attempt to flatter didn’t quite land, considering Ji Li’s previous health condition, the marriage partner could only be his younger brother.

"Last time, I also mentioned a blood relation between Xue Huiyi and you, the boss; later, I uncovered an earth-shattering secret, absolutely explosive."

Xiang Qian rubbed his hands and laid out photos of several individuals, "These people, are the sponsors behind the orphanage. Xue Feiqun, Xue the Third. Initially, I suspected Xue Huiyi to be Xue the Third’s daughter; after all, he truly cherished Xue Huiyi greatly, giving her whatever she wanted. Later evidence disproved this; they were fundamentally unrelated by blood."

Su Xiaocai listened attentively, her hands neatly placed on her knees like a child waiting for an apple to be shared.

"What’s the explosive matter?"

"Don’t rush, I’m about to tell. I found an insider who said before the Xue Family adopted Xue Huiyi, way before that, Xue Feiqun had an affair with a lover at the orphanage. The insider was one hundred percent certain about this information because that lover became pregnant. Xue Feiqun was very close to her and particularly nurturing."

Xiang Qian hadn’t anticipated this turn, finding a breakthrough when nothing seemed forthcoming.

The insider was an old aunt who had lived near the orphanage; that planet was poor back then, with the orphanage standing out in grandeur, and many scrambled for an opportunity to work there.

The old aunt had luckily landed a temp job there; though called a temp job, she was basically a jack-of-all-trades.

Back then, cleaning robots weren’t in vogue in poor areas; purchasing one cost tens of thousands, and for such a large orphanage, one robot simply wasn’t enough, moreover, it might break down and there’d be no place for repairs, all tasks were manually done.

The odd jobs included taking clothes from various rooms to the laundry, trash disposal, table cleaning, all required a cleaner.

As for how the old aunt knew the lover was pregnant, naturally through missing periods consecutively for half a year.

This matter, she was the only one who knew.

By chance, Xiang Qian presented himself to the old aunt as the son of a temp worker from the orphanage, casually talking about situations within the orphanage, sharing some "unknown" exciting secrets, under the lure of money, the old aunt quickly let loose on the orphanage.

"Naturally pregnant, wouldn’t the belly grow bigger?" Su Xiaocai raised a doubt.

"The old aunt said, Xue Feiqun’s lover wore loose clothes daily and seldom came out to meet people, until the child was due, then a private doctor was called to deliver, the next day, the lover and their child disappeared. Xue Feiqun didn’t search for them, nor would the director inquire."

Su Xiaocai said, "Don’t tell me, that private doctor died."

Xiang Qian’s face showed constipation; that’s precisely the case.

Ah, a cliché from dramatic tales where life is casually trampled upon.

"Was the lover an orphanage staff or an orphan there?"

If life seems dull, gossip surely saves humanity, Su Xiaocai became more engrossed with each word she heard.

"You’ve hit the key point. Neither, and it’s uncertain whether there was just one lover. After all, the old aunt was only a temp worker; the time span isn’t enough to probe whether Xue Feiqun subsequently maintained other lovers."

Su Xiaocai was dumbfounded, is this what she perceived it to mean?

Did Xue Feiqun raise a bunch of lovers at the orphanage for childbirth?

So what was the reason for going to the orphanage? Pleasure? Or was it a convenient way to have the orphanage take over the children?

She turned to Ji Li, "Do your wealthy families play so flamboyantly?"

It’s not a hotel, not a villa, it’s inside an orphanage, cultivating both flowers and raising them.

No wonder the insiders all say Xue Feiqun is roguish, filthy.
