A sparse drive on a concrete road, lined with turquoise vegetation and a few tiled houses halfway up the hill, away from the city and on the way to the countryside.

Half an hour later, Yan Muxi arrived at the destination according to the address told by Qin Ming.

Yan Muxi picked up her bag and got out of the car, she looked around, it was sparsely populated.

"Hahaha, our little army is promising, and he scored 100 points in yesterday's in-class test. ”

"Alas, Aunt Zhou will call Xiaojun to our house tomorrow to make up for my son's math. ”

"No problem, no problem. ”

The sound of conversation came from under the bridge in front of him, and Yan Muxi strode forward: "Hello." ”

Her footsteps stopped in the middle of the bridge, and when she looked down, she saw two women squatting by the river to wash their clothes.

The two women looked up at Yan Muxi one after another.

Yan Muxi asked with a polite smile: "May I ask if Xie Qinzhou's family lives here?"

When the words fell, the person who called Aunt Zhou replied, "I live here." ”

Yan Muxi remained polite: "Can you take me to find him?"

Another woman said, "What are you looking for him? ”

As soon as this sentence came out, Aunt Zhou bumped the shoulder of the woman next to her: "I'll take you there, my house is very close to his house." ”

Yan Muxi: "Thank you." ”

Aunt Zhou got up with the laundry tub and walked towards Yan Muxi: "You're from the city, right?" ”

Yan Muxi replied with a smile: "Yes." ”

Aunt Zhou: "I can tell you by looking at how you look and what you are wearing." ”

Yan Muxi smiled.

Aunt Zhou didn't ask Yan Muxi why she was looking for Xie Qinzhou, nor did she gossip about it.

She just intimately reminded Yan Muxi to walk carefully, it only rained yesterday, and the road in the village was very slippery, Yan Muxi had a good first impression of her.

Aunt Zhou pointed to a cement house in front of her: "That's Xie Qinzhou's home." ”

Yan Muxi nodded.

"My house is down there, theirs is up there, so you just follow this path and go up. ”

Yan Muxi: "Thank you so much." ”

Aunt Zhou smiled: "You're welcome." ”

Yan Muxi stepped on the ladder and walked up, the ladder was about twenty sections, and at the end was Xie Zhengzhou's home.

The cement house, with two floors and one bottom, compared with other houses in the village, Xie Qinzhou's family can be regarded as wealthy.

"Is there anyone?" Yan Muxi shouted.

"Hello, anyone?"

The door was not closed tightly, and out of politeness, Yan Muxi did not rush in.

"Hello, is anyone there?" Yan Muxi shouted again.

"Oooo

"Who?"

The footsteps got closer and closer, the door was opened, and the eyes were facing each other, and both of them were stunned.

......

"Drink water?"

Yan Muxi shook his head: "Thank you, no." ”

"Do you eat fruit?"

"No, I don't. ”

"Cookies?"

"No, I don't. ”

"I'll give it to you..."

Yan Muxi was a little helpless: "You don't have to bother. ”

The scene was slightly awkward.

Yan Muxi looked around, and finally broke the awkward atmosphere: "Xie Ling." ”

Xie Ling looked at her suspiciously.

Yan Muxi said: "What a coincidence. ”

Xie Ling scratched the back of his head: "It's quite a coincidence, what are you doing at my house?"

Yan Muxi went straight to the point: "I'm here to inquire about something?"

"Lingling, Mom and Dad are back. ”

After finishing speaking, Xie's father and mother entered the house with tools for farm work, and when they saw a stranger in the house, they were obviously flustered.

Yan Muxi got up: "Hello." ”

Father Xie looked at Yan Muxi with a puzzled expression: "Are you?"

"My surname is Yan, I'm here to ask you about Xie Qin..." Before Yan Muxi finished speaking, Xie Mu behind Xie Father suddenly let out a scream: "Ahhh

Yan Muxi was dazed and shocked.

Xie Ling hurriedly ran upstairs.

Father Xie frowned, and his tone was a little unkind: "Please go out first." ”

"Ah Ping, it's okay, it's okay!" Father Xie comforted Mother Xie's emotions.

And Xie Mu seemed to have been hit by something, she covered her head with her hands, and her eyes were very empty.

Yan Muxi was stunned for a few seconds, and then walked out of the house.

After a long time, calm returned to the house, and Xie Ling came out: "Little fairy..."

After a long absence, Yan Muxi panicked for a while.

Yan Muxi looked apologetic, "I'm sorry for offending you suddenly." ”

Xie Ling shook his head: "It has nothing to do with you." ”

Yan Muxi scratched the back of her head: "Your mother..."

Xie Ling's anxiety had not yet dissipated, and she explained: "My mother is not targeting you, as long as she hears my brother's name, she will be like just now." ”

"What are you asking us about?" Immediately, Father Xie walked out.

Yan Muxi glanced at Xie Ling.

"Little fairy, I'll take you shopping," Xie Ling took the lead.

Yan Muxi noticed that this name was very sensitive to their family.

Yan Muxi nodded: "Okay." ”

Yan Muxi smiled at Father Xie, and then left with Xie Ling.

The two of them walked around the village, the air in the village was very good, and the green hills in the distance and the surrounding plants would make people very pleasant.

"Have you been home all the time?"

Xie Ling replied: "I worked at a convenience store for a month, and then I was slandered by the convenience store owner that I had stolen her money, and then I quit my job and went home. ”

"Little fairy..."

Yan Muxi: "What's wrong?"

Xie Ling looked apologetic: "I'm really sorry for the trouble I caused you before." ”

Yan Muxi smiled: "I received your apology." ”

Xie Ling laughed.

The two walked to the entrance of the village and sat down on a bench, Xie Ling rubbed his hands: "Why did you come to inquire about my brother?"

Yan Muxi didn't know how to talk about it, because the next topic would make Xie Ling sad.

Xie Ling looked at Yan Muxi with a very embarrassed look, and she smiled: "It's okay, you can say it." ”

Yan Muxi pursed his lips: "Your brother..."

"Sister Xixi..."Xie Ling spoke, "Can I call you that?"

Yan Muxi nodded.

Xie Ling: "Since you can find here, it means that you know some things about my brother beforehand, and you want to get a confirmed answer from me at the moment," she used in a declarative sentence.

"Xie Ling..."Yan Muxi didn't hesitate any longer: "Your brother worked under a man named Chen Meng back then." ”

Xie Ling turned his head, his eyes flashed with shock, and his expression was slightly puzzled.

Yan Muxi repeated: "Really?"

Xie Ling looked at Yan Muxi's eyes and nodded: "Yes, how do you know him?"

Yan Muxi didn't even notice that she was nervous, and her hands were tightly clenched into the bag belt: "He is... It's my grandfather!"

When the words fell, Xie Ling's pupils dilated, and he didn't know what to say for a moment in surprise.

Yan Muxi bit her lip fiercely, and she forced herself to suppress the uneasy emotions in her heart at the moment: "Do you know Lin Kui?"

Chen Meng

Lin Kui

Xie Ling immediately understood what Yan Muxi was asking about.

Xie Ling was dumbfounded, and after a long time, Yan Muxi heard Xie Ling's answer, and she said, "I know." ”
