Chapter 106: Take the sword
Chapter 106
The atmosphere in the car was a little weird.
In this atmosphere, it took dozens of minutes for Zhang Xun to finally come to the location on the address.
Bai Xiang's parents live in a quiet community, and after arriving at the place, they called first, and answered a soft voice, obviously Bai Xiang's mother, Bai Xiang had already said hello, so they simply communicated, and the group entered smoothly.
Upstairs.
Knock.
"Come on, come on, come in. The person who opened the door was indeed a slender old man, his hair was dyed black, and his whole temperament was calm, but he could still see from his face that he was not young, and the white mother was suddenly full of smiles when she saw them.
Bai Xiang is the second daughter in the family, so Bai Xiang's parents are close to the age of sixties.
Zhang Xun and several people called Auntie one after another, when he and Lin Xiaoye called, Bai Mu was smiling and very kind, but when Wang Mianhua, who was too much of premature aging, also called Auntie, Bai Mu smiled and said reluctantly: "You still call me sister......
Wang Mianhua: "......"
Zhang Xun coughed and stopped laughing, and then the three of them walked in and saw that the living room had been prepared to entertain guests, Bai Mu smiled and asked if she was tired or other kind of polite words, Zhang Xun replied unhurriedly, and when the four of them sat down, Bai Mu couldn't help but look at Lin Xiaoye, and said with some hesitation: "My daughter said that she invited two friends over, are you ......?"
Lin Xiaoye, who was sitting on the sofa with a straight body, did not feel embarrassed at all, but said crisply: "My dad called me over!"
"Your father?" Bai Mu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly remembered something and asked, "What's your last name?"
"Lin!"
"Are you...... Lin Xiaoye?Lin Rong's daughter?"
Lin Xiaoye put his hands on his knees very neatly, and nodded when he heard the words, very simply.
Bai Mu was suddenly surprised, and she became enthusiastic, and asked a few more words, Lin Xiaoye answered simply, and Zhang Xun, who was sitting next to her, probably understood what was going on.
It turned out that what Bai's father was going to send this time was to give it to Lin Rong, that is, Lin Xiaoye's father, and I don't know what to say, probably because there was some communication problem, in short, Bai's father called Bai Xiang and asked her to find someone to come and bring the things to Tian'an City, but Lin Rong simply sent his daughter to Chunjiang to pick it up.
In general, all three people are doing the same thing.
"What an oolong incident. Zhang Xun couldn't help but sigh.
The few people who figured out what had happened couldn't help but smile bitterly, especially Lin Xiaoye pouted and said, "My dad didn't know about the advance notice here, I thought he had already said it." ”
Bai Mu gently took Xiaoye's hand, but she was very happy, and asked for a long time, Zhang Xun also learned that Bai Xiang's mother had met Lin Xiaoye a few times when she was a child, but later they separated from each other, so they didn't see much, plus the eighteen changes of the female university, they didn't dare to admit it, Bai Mu was warm and caring, and there were enough rooms at home, and after a few words, she directly arranged the accommodation of several people.
Zhang Xun politely excused himself a few words, and when he saw that it was ineffective, he went straight to the point and said, "Speaking of which, why didn't you see your uncle?"
"He's gone grocery shopping, and he'll be back in a moment. Speaking of this, Bai Xiang's mother couldn't help but smile.
Grocery shopping?
Zhang Xun was a little surprised, he didn't expect the Bai family to have such a different division of labor, just thinking about it, he heard the sound of the door opening, turned his head to look, and saw an old man walking in with several cloth bags in both hands, he saw a few extra guests in the house at a glance, and couldn't help but smile: "It's already here?"
……
Bai Xiang's father is a person who looks very Sven, that is, he picks up a hand full of vegetables and fish, and he is still Sven, which is a kind of temperament in his bones, which is not significant when he is young, and the older he gets, the purer the taste.
As for the appearance, Bai Xiang's appearance is obviously more similar to his father, especially the eyes, as well as the eyebrow corners around the eyes, which are very similar, but one is mellow and the other is flying.
After coming in, he first introduced it, and Bai Mu explained this oolong incident half-complainingly and half-funny, which made the old man who was nearly sixty years old Sven embarrassed, and even blushed a little.
The old couple could see that they loved each other very much, and while taking turns greeting the guests, they went to clean up and prepare the meal, needless to say, the dinner must be hearty and cordial.
I have to say that the two old men are very friendly, and when they started to busy with the meals, Lin Xiaoye went to the kitchen to gossip with Bai's mother, and in the living room, Bai's father occupied the main position, and washed away the best tea cakes for Zhang Xun and Mian with warm water.
"If I knew it would be like this, I wouldn't let you all come, and I hope you don't be surprised. "This old man, who is close to the age of obedience, has the politeness of an old-school literati, and speaks habitually with a literary tone, but it is not annoying.
"You're welcome. Zhang Xun hurriedly said.
In his eyes, the old man's smile was genuine and genuine.
"But that's the best thing for you to come, after all, it's not easy to bring, and it's not easy to go through the security check, although it's okay to take a bus, but it's too tiring, and it's hard for you to go back this time." ”
Zhang Xun said politely when he heard this, and then couldn't help asking, "Speaking of which, we don't know what exactly we want to bring?"
For that item, Zhang Xun was a little curious, Lin Xiaoye had revealed before that it was a sword, I don't know if it was true or not, if it was true, of course it would be difficult to pass the security check, if you don't drive over to get it alone, and you can't express it, you can probably only take a long-distance bus, he thinks that Lin Xiaoye probably had this idea, but it is conceivable that across the land of several cities, and you have to go through the province, it is not a comfortable way to do a long-distance bus.
"Don't you know? She didn't tell you?"
Zhang Xun was a little embarrassed and said: "Bai Xiang said that I will know when the time comes." ”
Father Bai smiled and shook his head again and again, but he was not surprised, but he was already very familiar with the temper of his own daughter, so the old gentleman smiled faintly: "It's nothing, it's just a sword antiquity in my collection, an ancient sword, and it is only a few hundred years old, not a famous object, mainly because Lin Xiaoye's father and I were friends when we were young, and we haven't seen each other for many years, but I didn't expect to meet again when I was old." He's also very fond of collecting this kind of thing, so I thought I'd give it to him. ”
"I see. Zhang Xun finally understood the general process, it was really a sword, which made him suddenly recall the small room on the second floor of the bookstore that belonged to Bai Xiang alone, and there were a lot of scenic craft swords on the bookshelf in that room, he had seen it a long time ago, before he thought it was just a decoration, but now it seems that Bai Xiang's aesthetic preference for this kind of gadget is probably inherited from his father.
So Zhang Xun smiled and said, "So, it seems that you are also a lover of this kind of sword?"
Mr. Bai waved his hand again and again, saying that he didn't dare to be, speaking of this kind of private hobby, the old man suddenly showed a childlike side, and said a little shyly that it was just a small fight.
With that, he simply went back to the house and rummaged through it, and then walked back with a slender cloth bag.
