Chapter 49: The Goldfinch

After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the New Year is over. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoThe air is still filled with the joy of the New Year, but it is like a great enemy in a Fengji business in Cloud City. Because when the guy went to work today, he found a three-colored goldfinch that was about to freeze outside the door of his shop.

This Feng Kee firm is a shop that sells miscellaneous grains, so there are often birds and finches wandering outside the store pecking at food. But this three-colored goldfinch is a very special kind of bird, and its appearance means that they must report this matter to Baili Feng.

When Bai Li Feng first saw this three-colored goldfinch, he almost couldn't believe his eyes. Her face seemed to be overjoyed and then sad, and her blood surged up at once, frightening everyone in the house, and hurriedly delayed the doctor's consultation. After some acupuncture and moxibustion, Baili Feng was relieved. Her movement was too big, and the three Baili Xu outside the mansion deliberately rushed back after hearing about it, and even Chu Huaifeng appeared.

Lianxin and Qiong Zhi knew a little about this finch, and the two of them looked at each other with the three-colored goldfinch, hesitating and not knowing how to speak. Because this finch represents a lot of meaning.

The previous owner of this three-colored goldfinch was Baili Feng, but the current owner should be Bai Li Feng's second senior sister when he was in the Valley of Doom, Su Keren.

Su Keren married away from the school five years ago, and his whereabouts are unknown and there has been no news since then. This three-colored goldfinch was given to her by Baili Feng. This three-colored goldfinch has been trained to find the hidden stake of the nearest Baili maple. It was agreed that if she saw these three-colored goldfinch, it would be when she had passed away.

Baili Feng drank wine last night, and when he saw this goldfinch today, he was overjoyed and sad, and suddenly caused an emergency.

"How could it be so fast?" Baili Feng lay on the couch and muttered to himself: "Second Senior Sister is only thirty-five years old now, why is it so sudden?" Is there a terminal illness? It's time to have a baby, could it be that something went wrong during childbirth? ā€

She was thinking nonsense on the couch, and her face was very ugly. Lianxin and Qiong Zhi hurriedly comforted her: "Thirty-five years old is when the body is strong, how can it be ...... Maybe it was just accidentally letting the finches go? ā€

After saying that, they themselves felt that they were not confident: who would not focus on taking care of such an important thing?

Qiong Zhi touched the somewhat dim feathers of the golden finch in his arms: "This finch looks not small, but why is it so light?" Mao is also dim, and he has suffered a lot along the way. ā€

Bai Li Feng, who was lying on the couch, heard this, and suddenly said, "Show me the golden finch." ā€

Qiong Zhi obeyed her instructions and carried the golden finch to Baili Feng. Baili Feng stretched out his hand to take the golden finch and touched it: "It's indeed a little thin." Call the giver of the finches. ā€

Xiao Guo of the multigrain shop was the first person to see the goldfinch today. He didn't dare to look at Baili Feng on the couch when he entered the door, he only lowered his head and replied.

"You say, when you pick up the goldfinch, there is nothing else on it?"

"Nope. There is only one bird on the earth. It was freezing and hid in the gap in the gate. ā€

Baili Feng frowned slightly: "A bird, hiding in the crack of the door, hiding all night in this weather, should almost freeze to death." ā€

"Maybe it was in the middle of the night?"

"How can birds fly in the middle of the night when they can't see with their eyes?" Baili Feng suddenly paused: "The golden finch is from a very close place from here. Go and check, near Wangyun City, who had someone last night...... went. ā€

Everyone was instructed to go separately to investigate, but the three-colored goldfinch who was mentally wilted remained. Baili Feng asked people to feed the goldfinch because it looked so weak that it seemed to be dying.

However, two days later, Thyme Feng did not get any useful news. She couldn't tell if she wanted news or even less for it.

She had the goldfinch brought in.

The condition of the three-colored goldfinch in the cage is much better, and it looks no different from that of a healthy bird. The bird tamers who domesticated the three-colored goldfinch have also rushed to Baili Mansion. Bai Li Feng handed the three-colored goldfinch to the bird tamer, who blew a few tunes with a bamboo whistle, and the goldfinch suddenly became active, jumping up and down in the cage, very excited.

"What's going on?"

Seeing this, the bird tamer had some doubts in his heart, but he still said the truth:

"The goldfinch seems to want to go back."

"It still wants to go back?"

"Could it be that she ......" Bai Li Feng realized something: "Then after releasing it, can you find it again?" ā€

Bird trainer for sure.

So Baili Feng decided to send Bai Qing and Song Qing, who were good at light work in the house, to follow the goldfinch and see where it flew to.

After feeding the goldfinch, the bird tamer whistled at it and opened the cage. The goldfinch did not hesitate after the cage door opened, flapped its wings and flew away. Bai Qing and Songqing also chased out with the bird tamer.

About an hour later, Bai Qing came in to talk back to Bai Li Feng.

"Where did the goldfinch go?"

"The recently moved fur merchant, the Huo family."

A dark glint flashed in Baili Feng's eyes: Why is it so coincidental?

"I want to know the news about this Huo family, and it's all the news you can find."

Baili Feng's instructions this time were different from the last time, so it took a little longer. As soon as the news from Yunzhou came, the lotus heart was immediately sent to Baili Feng's hands.

Huo Jiazu was originally a leather merchant in Yunzhou, with a slight income, and often walked around outside the customs. It was only more than 30 years ago that a runner outside the border encountered horse bandits and was robbed of a large number of goods, and then he collapsed.

That batch of goods was originally purchased by the Huo family on credit, and the buyer had already been booked. However, this change not only caused the loss of the goods, but also had to repay the payment owed on credit and the buyer's high liquidated damages. After some compensation, the Huo family was only an empty shell and crumbling. In order to repay the money, he also borrowed money from Yinzi. But after a few years, their family really can't afford to pay back the high amount of money. In desperation, the family moved to a place where no one knew.

The current Huo family is headed by Mrs. Huo. Her son Huo Sanlang is Chinese New Year's Eve two years old today and has a wife and two concubines. There are also two sons under his knees.

His wife is said to be in poor health and has been sick in bed all the year round, so not many people have seen her appearance, only that she is older than Huo Saburo. And the two concubines often walk around with people, and although they have children, they are still young and beautiful. The Huo family also has a cook, two rough servants, three maids and two housekeepers.

Bai Li Feng saw the words "perennial sick in bed" on the paper, and with a shake of his hand, he scratched the paper.

Among the Huo family, in terms of age, only this wife who has never shown up meets Su Keren's age. But she was still in good health five years ago, why was she bedridden?

But it's always better than learning of her death.

According to the request, Bai Qing sneaked into Huo's house that day to find out.
