Chapter 923: A Trip to the Northern Capital (8)
School...... It wasn't Xu Xu who accompanied her, but Ruan Jianguo who picked it up.
Ruan Jiaojiao's life is empty, and she feels very bored every day.
On the other hand, at the same time that Xu Xu arrived in the northern capital, the man who went to Xiahe Village to find him also returned home.
He is a person with extreme cleanliness, and the first thing he used to do when he got home was to take a shower, but today he didn't, but he entered the door of the study and knocked on the door.
The old man in the study was playing chess with someone, and when he saw the man coming in, the man immediately got up: "Second young master." ”
The man who was called the second young master didn't look at him, but walked directly to the old man, lowered his head and said, "Dad, I'm back." ”
The old man was still studying the chess game with his head down, and he didn't raise his head when he heard the words, but only asked casually: "Found it?"
The man nodded: "Yes, it's just that the woman died more than ten years ago, one corpse and two lives." After a pause: "The woman's man later married and had children." ”
When the old man heard this, he didn't know whether he was relieved or sighed, put down the white jade chess pieces in his hand, reached out to take the crutches on one side, and the person who had just played chess together next to him hurriedly stepped forward to help, the old man stood up under the support, turned around and walked to the window behind him, looking at the withered garden outside and was silent for a long time.
"Then forget it, you've worked hard, let's go down and rest first. ”
The man nodded, and then got up and walked out.
When the man walked away, the old man turned around and returned to the front of the chess game to sit down again, and let the person who had just played chess with him sit down. ”
"Didn't the second young master just come back?"
The old man didn't answer, but just sneered, can he not know what kind of character he owns?
In the past, even if it was a big deal, the first thing he did when he got home was to take a bath, but this time he came back from out of town, but he could call him back as soon as possible, he didn't believe that his father would be more important than his cleanliness.
Xu Xu arrived in the northern capital in the early morning of the 9th, because he had already said hello, so eight people, including the teacher, were picked up by the people sent by Old Man Shu as soon as possible and sent to a special guest house to rest.
Because Shu's house is a little far away from the competition site, and several students are taking the train for the first time, and they have been sitting for such a long time, the tenth is going to race, and the ninth must have a good rest, so Master Shu did not take people home, but let them rest in the guest house opened outside.
The teacher who led the team was quite embarrassed and very grateful, and thanked the person sent by Old Man Shu, and Xu Xu had already found the phone at the front desk of the guest house.
It's less than six o'clock in the morning, because it's winter, and it won't dawn until seven or eight o'clock in the morning, Xu Xu didn't want to disturb Ruan Jiaojiao's sleep so early, so he waited until seven thirty in the morning, and pinched the time when Ruan Jiaojiao was going out to call Ruan's family.
When his call came, Ruan Jiaojiao was having breakfast, she had a bad appetite these days, she only ate one fritter today and didn't want to eat it, and she was just about to go to school early with her schoolbag when she heard the phone ringing.
As if she had a heart, Ruan Jiaojiao's eyes suddenly lit up, and she pounced on the phone.
As soon as the answer was connected, Xu Xu's voice came from there: "Jiaojiao, it's me." ”
Listening to Xu Xu's voice, Ruan Jiaojiao didn't know why she was so wronged: "I know, Brother Xu." ”
