Shaw House.

The plaque of gold lacquer is erected on top of a high door, and it is seen that under the eaves is slightly upturned is a heavy red lacquered wooden door, and the wooden door is wide to see a piece of Xiao wall that is almost as high as the door, and the Xiao wall is carved with a fierce beast with its head held high and majestic momentum. Next to the gate, two family-like people stood straight inside the threshold.

Seeing the word Xiao Fu, Xiao Lei recalled the months in Kunlun, and everything was as unreal as a dream. Now that home is in front of him, how can Xiao Lei not be excited.

As he walked briskly to the door, a housekeeper blocked his way.

"Is there a prayer?" As he spoke, he glanced at the dirty two, and a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes.

Xiao Lei was stopped by this, and only then did he remember his appearance, if he didn't identify it carefully, he really couldn't see the original appearance. "See clearly." Xiao Lei said helplessly.

When the family who didn't squint heard someone say this, he raised his eyes and looked at his face, "Gong...... Son! After seeing the other party's eyes clearly, the family was not only surprised, but also had a trace of fear in his heart.

At the beginning, Xiao Lei took the little girl into the provincial capital to participate in the township test, but the two encountered wolves on the road and got separated in the escape. After escaping from the wolves, the little guy went home to report. The grandmother of the Xiao family fainted directly when she heard the news, and Xiao's father ordered someone to go into the mountains to find Xiao Lei.

That's where it is. If it weren't for Xiao Lei's grandmother claiming to see people alive and dead to see corpses, and offering a heavy reward, and sticking Xiao Lei's portrait all over the city, everyone might not want to continue to look for it. They are sure in their hearts that Xiao Lei is dead or alive.

How can a person who has been thought to be dead in his heart suddenly appear in front of him, and now he does not feel fear.

The doorman on the other side also recognized Xiao Lei and immediately said, "I'll go and inform the master." ”

"I'm not fit to see them now, and I'll go to my father when I'm freshened." After Xiao Lei explained to the doorman, he led Shi Manman into the Xiao family.

"Old ...... Master, Childe is back! The family members who came to report didn't care about the rules at home, shouted babblingly, and ran into Xiao Yuan's study out of breath.

"What a howl! More and more out of rules! …… What did you just say? Which son is back? Can...... But Lei'er? Xiao Yuan asked and answered himself. In addition to Xiao Lei, there is no one else in the family.

At the beginning, everyone, including himself, after searching for more than a month, thought that Xiao Lei could not be alive. I was full of grief in my heart, but the huge family business still depended on his support, so I could only grit my teeth and endure the pain of losing my son.

But at this moment, when he heard the return of his only son, he couldn't help but be so excited that his face turned red, and the hand holding the scroll trembled slightly.

"Yes, Childe also brought a girl back, and Childe is now back in the courtyard to freshen up, and will come to see the master in a while......" The family member dutifully reported what he had seen.

Xiao Yuan took a deep breath and calmed his emotions. After years of experience in the mall, controlling your emotions is commonplace. But Xiao Lei, the only son, can often break his limits and tear off his disguised mask, which often results in Xiao Yuan being furious, causing Xiao Lei to taste all the family rules.

Just like last year, Xiao Yuan had a baby kiss with a friend in a shopping mall with the same strength when Xiao Lei was young, and he was going to be a gift last year. But Xiao Lei secretly broke off the marriage contract to the other party behind his family's back.

In such a context, even if the woman takes the initiative to contact the marriage contract, it will affect her reputation, not to mention that the man takes the initiative to ask for the dissolution of the marriage contract. As a result, the other party's daughter was directly forced to find a dead and tired life, not only to apologize to make up for it, but also to cut off the possibility of contact between the two families. directly caused Xiao Yuan to have one more opponent in the mall.

In the face of Xiao Yuan's family rules, Xiao Lei had no remorse, and even swore to Xiao Yuan that he would only marry one woman in his life, and he still wanted his beloved. In order to show his determination, he sent away the room that his grandmother's father had prepared for him, and said that the maids were innocent.

After that time, Xiao's father locked Xiao Lei up in a fit of anger, and didn't release Xiao Lei until the township test was held. But not long after Xiao Lei left, the bad news came back. These days, Xiao Yuan also fell into deep self-blame, blaming himself for being angry with each other when Xiao Yuan was still alive.

But now Xiao Lei is back and has brought back a girl. He was obviously not in danger of his life, but he didn't let people send back the news, which cast a shadow on the Xiao family for nearly half a year. The more Xiao Yuan thought about it, the more angry he became, how guilty he was at the beginning, and how angry he was now.

"This son of a wive! Also freshen up! Haven't you seen him naked! Disappeared for half a year and now came back quietly, this rebel! I really want to anger the old man! The angry Xiao Yuan slapped the table with a bang.

The doorman on the side shrank his head, not understanding why the old man with a happy face when he heard the return of his son suddenly turned cloudy.

"Gong ...... Childe, is that you? You're back! On the way to Xiao Lei's courtyard, a thin woman who looked two or three years older than Xiao Lei suddenly threw herself into Xiao Lei's arms and sobbed in a low voice.

"Yunbi?" Before Xiao Lei could see the person clearly, the other party had already thrown himself into his arms. hurriedly pulled away from each other, and after a careful look, he realized that it was the big girl in his yard, Yunbi.

"It's good that Childe is back. Just come back. Yun Bi was talking to herself, very pitiful.

"Who is she?" Shi Manman saw that the other party was leaning softly and weakly beside Xiao Lei, and he couldn't say anything very dazzling, so he asked.

Yun Bi heard the woman's voice and looked behind Xiao Lei in surprise.

"She is the eldest maid in our courtyard, her name is Yunbi. She grew up with me, and because she was a year older than me, I always regarded her as an older sister. Xiao Lei introduced Shi Manman.

Yun Bi heard Xiao Lei say this, the blood on her face retreated, and she said hurriedly: "Childe can't talk nonsense, how can a slave be a sister." Childe has only one sister, that is, the eldest lady. ”

"It's okay, Miss Shi is not an outsider. She was...... He was my savior. Xiao Lei looked at Shi Manman, on the way back to the two, Xiao Lei had already made up an excuse for his disappearance for nearly half a year.

"Yunbi Xie Shi, Miss Shi, is very gracious." As he spoke, he was about to bow to the stone vines, and his face was very grateful and sincere.

Shi Manman dodged and helped Yun Bi up, his eyebrows frowning slightly. For some reason, the scene from Yunbi to Xiao Lei's arms made her very uncomfortable.

"Yunbi, you live in a wing room in my shallow house, and take Miss Shi to live first. Tell a few of the housekeepers to boil some water for us to freshen up. Xiao Lei said to Yun Bi.

"Manman, I've seen my father and grandmother explain to them before coming to you." After months of getting along, the name of Shi Manman has lost its original unnaturalness and avoidance.

It's just that after Yun Bi heard Xiao Lei's name for her, she looked at Shi Manman twice in surprise, and a trace of complicated emotions flashed in her eyes.

After Xiao Lei explained the stone vines to Yun Bi, he left with great confidence. Yun Bi led Shi Manman to a side room and said, "Girl, please wait a while, I'll go prepare hot water." After speaking, he saluted the stone vines, but he didn't have the initial weak appearance.

"Ah, it's finally coming out. Bad goblins, this is where humans live? What is it? Can I eat it? Ah! It's too dry here! How there is no water! The little hooked snake sensed that there were only two demons around him, Shi Manman, and himself, and immediately put on the sleeve of Shi Manman, and wandered around to judge.

"Be quiet, little snake, someone will come in a while." Shi Manman also looked at the green pine and green cypress carved into the wood on the screen with great novelty, and did not forget to remind the little hooked snake.

"Who's called the little snake! I'm a hooked snake! Besides, I have a name too. The little hooked snake stood up and protested against the stone vine's disrespect for him.

"Name?" Shi Manman looked at the little hooked snake and said. These days, it really doesn't seem to be thinking that the little hooked snake also has a name.

"Mother has replaced me with a dragon." The little hooked snake tilted his head proudly and said.

"Dragons? Hook snake into a dragon, I'm afraid it will take 10,000 years. Shi Manman patted its head to make sure that the other party was not hysterical.

"That'...... So what, it's not a matter of time. My mother said that I must be able to turn into a dragon faster than her. The little hooked snake tried to dodge the stone vines, but was still hit in the head.

Hearing the little hooked snake mention its mother, Shi Manman was silent for a moment, then smiled and said to the little hooked snake: "Then I will also call you Long'er from now on." ”

The little hooked snake was stunned, it had never seen such a gentle stone vine smiling, and for the first time it couldn't refuse a smiling stone vine.

The noon sun paced slowly to a certain mountain peak in the west, and the golden glare gradually softened and turned orange. Sunlight poured into the room, staining a patch.

Stone vines looked at every corner of the house, every ornament. is lying on the table with his arms pillowed in boredom, squinting. The palm of the hand opened and closed, as if trying to hold the sunlight sprinkled in the palm of the hand.

"Bad goblin, you must have been deceived by that human. It's been so long, and she hasn't come back yet. The little hooked snake said sullenly in the stone vine sleeve. The little hooked snake that lacks water doesn't want to come out to bask in the afternoon sun.

Shi Manman didn't answer, still playing with the sunlight in his palm.

The news of Xiao Lei's return home was like clear water dripping into boiling oil, and everyone in the Xiao family was busy boiling.

Xiao's grandmother only learned the news of Xiao Lei's safe return home after Xiao Yuan. After being bedridden for several months, her spirit seemed to come back all at once. Thinking of his grandson, and ignoring the rules of respect and humility of the elders and young, he ordered someone to go to Xiaolei Courtyard after lifting his steps.
