"Ah Xiao, you tap it! my face is going to be ruined!" Su Jie sat on the stool, crying bitterly, looking at Fan Yan, who was smiling very happily on the side, wanting to scold but not daring to scold - it really hurts to pull his face.

Ah Xiao shook his head, but he didn't stop the hand that applied the herb in his hand, and said with a smile: "It's okay for you to be so impulsive, it's good to be beaten like this." ”

Fan Yan pounded the herbs with a hammer on the side, and smiled very brightly, "Su Jie, otherwise I will help you ask my father for leave tomorrow?

Su Jie pursed his lips and ignored the two.

Finally bandaged Su Jie's face, Ah Xiao helped Su Jie up and asked, "I don't know if your father is back?" If you come back, you go back and ask your father to see it, I remember that Uncle Su knows a lot of things in this regard." ”

"Of course he understands, he is beaten like that by my mother every day, it's strange if he doesn't understand, but he's not at home now. ”

"My grandfather and Uncle Jiang are not at home either, they went out of the city to do business today, where did your father go?"

"My father is also gone, and when he left today, he asked me to go to Yu He's house for dinner tonight!" Fan Yan was surprised, but she was more interested in Su Jie's mother beating her father all day long, and asked curiously: "Your mother is really so powerful?" I heard that your father used to be the centurion of the Wuwei Army in the county, how could he not beat your mother?"

"Cut, what do you know, although my father is often beaten by my mother, it's not because my father is good to my mother, and I am reluctant to beat my mother, my father said, this is called a good man!" Su Jie's eyes showed a look of great admiration, and then said: "My mother also said that beating is kissing, scolding is love, the more you like someone, the more you have to take care of him." ”

"What does your mother care about your father? Every time Uncle Su doesn't know why he is beaten. Ah Xiao was puzzled, he knew that Uncle Su was often beaten by his aunt, and Aunt Su could chase Uncle Su with a feather duster from the mouth of the alley to the end of the alley, every time it was like this, there were more beatings, and the people on Tuochuan Street were not surprised, but Ah Xiao didn't know what the reason was.

Fan Yan also asked: "Yes, yes, yes, your mother must have a reason for beating your father, right? Otherwise, it is impossible to beat your father for no reason? Every time my father scolds me, there is a reason, but my father never beats me." ”

"It is said that it is...... Alas, I don't know why, every time they quarrel, they close the door, I don't know what they quarrel about......" Su Jie frowned, thought for a long time, and finally slapped the board and said: "I remember!"

"What's it? The two children looked at Su Jie with a look of hope.

"Like, it seems to be a street or something, I don't remember it very clearly, anyway, it means that my dad often goes to which street to fool around, I can't remember the specific name. Su Jie sighed regretfully and asked, "Do you know what street it is?" Since my mother said that my father went to fool around there, it should be related to my father's uncles, who often go out to play and don't take me with them. ”

"Cut, I thought it was just going out with my friends, and I often went out to play behind my father's back, and your mother was going to beat people, it was rude, not like a good wife!" Fan Yan glanced at the white of his eyes and said with disdain.

Ah Xiao scratched his face with his fingertips and analyzed: "Tuchuan Street is definitely not, we live here, no one lives in the old street, and it is definitely not." There is a county government office in Lao Ye Street, and there is nothing interesting next to it, so it shouldn't be, so what else is there?"

"By the way, there is also the wine street, where my grandfather often went to drink, and there was the Chen family wine shop. Ah Xiao remembered a street again, and the wife of the owner of the Chen family's winery, she always liked to hold Ah Xiao in her arms, which made Ah Xiao's face heat and red inexplicably, although Ah Xiao didn't know why she was like this.

"There's also Gate Street, but there's nothing there?" Fan Yan was puzzled, and then said: "Yu He's house is in Gate Street, I have been to her house a few times to play, there is a stone ladder from the back of Yu He's yard to go up by the city gate, but it is not allowed to go up on weekdays, there are always some people guarding there." ”

"Actually, there is another place, but I haven't been there, I just heard Uncle Jiang and them say it. Ah Xiao thought of the last street in the small town and said, "There is another place called Fuxi Street, have you ever been there?"

"Fuxi Street?" Fan Yan shook his head and said, "I haven't heard of it, I don't know where it is." ”

"I know! I just remembered, Fuxi Street! It's Fuxi Street! My mother beat my dad to blame him for going to Fuxi Street!" Su Jie shouted excitedly, and in his excitement, he accidentally pulled the place on his face where the medicine had just been applied, and he convulsed in pain.

"It seems to be a mysterious place, it seems that Uncle Jiang is going too, otherwise we should go there to find Uncle Su? Find him and let him go home early." Ah Xiao looked at the two inquiringly.

Fan Yan and Su Jie glanced at each other, Su Jie hesitated a little, "Isn't this okay? It's definitely not a good place there, we didn't go well, my father was beaten so badly, if my mother knew about it, she would definitely beat me to death." ”

Fan Yan glanced at him and said, "Ah Xiao, then let's go to Su Jie's father, ignore him, and let him stay here honestly." Then he pulled Ah Xiao and was about to go out, and as soon as he walked to the door, Su Jie gritted his teeth, caught up and said, "Eh, wait for me, I'll go too!"

"That's right, since everyone hasn't been to Fuxi Street, what's wrong with going to see it today? Also, we're going to find your father, not to play there, you know?" Fan Yan looked at Su Jie, who was still bandaging his face, with a serious and serious expression.

"Yes, I'm going to find my father!"

The evening breeze rustled on the camphor trees in the yard.

Ah Xiao locked the door, wrote a note and pressed it on the bed, telling Grandpa and Uncle Jiang to accompany Su Jie and Fan Yan to find someone, and then went out with the two.

Two quarters of an hour later.

Jiang Laosi and the old Taoist priest pushed the cart full of goods back to the courtyard, and the two searched the entire courtyard, but they didn't see Ah Xiao, and wondered: "Why did this child disappear today? If I remember correctly, I should have left school a long time ago?"

"Alas, Lao Jiang, there's a note here!" The old Taoist priest found a note on the bed and shouted at Jiang Laosi.

"What's written on it?"

The old Taoist priest unfolded the note with a smile, and then the smile on his face gradually solidified.

The old Taoist priest looked at Jiang Laosi expressionlessly, raised the note in his hand, and asked, "Jiang Laosi, did you tell him about this kind of place?"

Jiang Laosi smiled politely, "It's really not me." Then he looked at the calm old Taoist priest suspiciously, and said, "He took the little ghost of the Su family and the baby daughter of the Zhao family to that kind of place, why aren't you worried......? It's not a good place!"

"What, I still have to chase him and pull him back?" The old Taoist priest glared at him and said: "Although this is not a good place, it can also make him increase his knowledge, if he is always kept at home like this, which immortal wizard on the list of celebrities of the immortal family is practiced at home?"

Jiang Laosi nodded in agreement and praised: "It's worthy of you, you can even go to this kind of place to say that it is so high-sounding, you have never been there, right?"

"Are you looking for death, Jiang Laosi?"

......

In less than a moment, the three of them came to the so-called Fuxi Street.

This street is really different, compared to the solemnity of Lao Ye Street, it is less serious, but more approachable, and for the rough Tuochuan Street, it is a little more refined and elegant. The whole street is filled with a pleasant aroma, although it can be smelled only the most ordinary incense, but everything here shows that it is so different, as if this is the heart of the small town of Jianyi.

Today is the customary day of money in the small town, and there are many people on the streets, but there are no women.

The two rows of rooms on the street were brightly lit, but most of them had beautiful paper lanterns hanging from the doorways, and some of them were smiling and greeting guests by beautiful women in very few clothes with beautiful makeup.

"This is Fuxi Street? Fan Yan happily patted Ah Xiao and the others on the shoulder, pointed to the largest shop on the street and said, "Ah Xiao Sujie! Let's go there and have a look? It must be a big tavern! I didn't know there was such a big tavern in our city!"

Ah Xiao shook his head helplessly, intending to refuse, but Su Jie took the lead to speak: "It's okay Ah Xiao! I think my father must be in it! Look at such a big tavern! My father must have come here to spend money to be trained by my mother!"

"Don't you want to eat something?" Su Jie pushed Ah Xiao with his shoulder, and seeing that he was still hesitant, he said proudly: "Forget it, I can invite you two to eat, right? I really haven't been to such an elegant restaurant, the things in it must be different, how about it, do you want to go?"

Ah Xiao didn't answer him, he felt that something was wrong, although there were many people on this street, but there were no women, the atmosphere in the small town has always been open, but how could there be no women walking on this street? The only woman he saw was the woman who solicited customers at the door, it was really weird.

"Do you want to go or not?" Su Jie and Fan Yan looked at Ah Xiao expectantly.

"Don't you think it's a little strange that there is no smell of food coming out of that restaurant?"

"What's so strange is that the smell of the street must have masked the smoke of the stir-fry. Fan Yan patted Ah Xiao's shoulder and said, "What is there to be afraid of, can Senior Sister not cover you if something happens?"

Seeing that the two of them were so persistent, Ah Xiao couldn't say anything more, so he had to agree.

Su Jie and Fan Yan were overjoyed, so they took Ah Xiao's hand and ran to the restaurant, and when they arrived at the door of the store, they only saw the three big characters "Pinxiang Pavilion" written on the door of the store, and a young woman wearing a breast-length green skirt standing at the door, smiling and flattering the visitors.

"Oh, Master Li, are you here tonight? Come and come inside, please, tonight you will keep the little song you like to listen to~ Oh, isn't this Brother Mu? Why did a gust of wind blow you over tonight?"

The laughter of a woman like a silver bell came from the restaurant, which spread far away in the first curtain of the night, drawing the hot gaze of countless men on the street.
