Chapter Forty-Nine: The Passerby is in a hurry
Xie Xiaoman said this, scratching his head: "Uncle, don't get me wrong, I don't come to you every time I have something." It's just that I'm afraid you're usually too busy, so that's why ...... Hey. ”
Halfway through the words, I felt that it was too hypocritical, and the fact was that it couldn't be changed no matter how I explained it.
Xie An seemed to be smiling, waiting for her next step.
"Anyway, that's how it happened. Uncle, that guy Guo Pu is missing, maybe something happened, when he will come back, whether he can come back, I don't know. He left a woman named Xianglan, who he thought his uncle should have seen? ”
"I did see it, and I came to the house to ask about your whereabouts before."
"Yes, it's her, and sure enough, I was met by your uncle at that time, and it can be regarded as her creation." Xie Xiaoman chuckled, "I didn't mean anything else when I came this time. That, after all, I'm also a woman, and some things to take care of people are not convenient to do. Besides, uncle, you also know my character, and I don't like to stay in one place for too long, so maybe after a while, I will entrust Xianglan to Xie Fu to take care of. Of course, if Guo Pu had come back early, I wouldn't have said these things.
"I've thought about it, it's not convenient for my uncle, I'll tell you first, and I'll go to Sister Wan in a while. Sister Xianglan used to do a favor or something, and it was easier to do it easily. And she has the money on hand, so she shouldn't cause too much trouble to Sister Wan.
"Well, one more thing, I accidentally broke a guy's leg earlier, and that kid lives with me now. His background is quite pitiful, and now he has embarked on the road of cultivating immortals. It's just that in the future, it's hard to guarantee that there won't be some problems if he comes to you. I also hope that my uncle can help with it. Oh, by the way, his name is Xu Zhefeng, and he is a soldier guarding the city in the city...... Uh, uncle, why are you looking at me like that? ”
Xie Xiaoman babbled and said a lot with his fingers, and when he looked up again. found that Xie An looked at himself thoughtfully, his eyes were very deep.
Xie An didn't have any superfluous expressions, just tilted his head slightly: "Did you encounter something?" ”
Xie Xiaoman sighed in his heart. Forced smiled: "How can there be? Why did my uncle ask that? ”
"With your temperament, you rarely say so much." Xie An said lightly.
The corners of Xie Xiaoman's forcibly cocked mouth were a little cramped: "Yes, it's just that you don't have much time to meet your uncle, you don't know me very well." Actually, I'm a person. Very good at chatting and farting. And often as soon as you talk about it, it goes on and on. This is especially true if you drink too much. ”
Xie An didn't say anything more, just looked at her lightly.
Xie Xiaoman's heart was furious when he was seen, and he didn't dare to stay longer, so he hurriedly got up, and after saying goodbye, he hurriedly pushed the door and left, and almost bumped into the servant who came in to bring tea and water outside. Fortunately, Xie Xiaoman's reaction was relatively fast, one sideways, under the effect of the wind charm. fluttering, he flew onto the roof and went in style.
"Ouch! Scared the hell out of me! Lord Lang. What was that? The little servant's frightened heart burst out, and he only felt a flower in front of him, and he didn't see what it was at all.
Xie An thought for a moment and smiled faintly: "It's just a hurried passerby." ”
"Passerby? Where did it come from? The servant believed it.
"White Emperor City." Xie An replied casually.
White Emperor City is lonely, and there is really not much difference in Fang Cai's behavior.
But Liu Bei was already in his last years, she Xie Xiaoman, what was there to worry about?
He looked at the five stone scatter in his hand, fiddled with it slightly, and didn't know what he was thinking.
……
……
Xie Xiaoman almost escaped from the Xie Mansion.
Thinking of the way Uncle Anshi looked at him, Xie Xiaoman's heart was a little confused, and he always felt as if he had been seen through in an instant, and he couldn't hide anything from those eyes.
But according to my uncle's character, I shouldn't ask too much.
After all, Xie An is a person who cares about the world, and for a little person like himself, in his eyes, he should just be a hurried passerby, and he can deal with it a few times in a while.
Thinking of this, Xie Xiaoman felt a little relieved in his heart, and smiled lightly, but there was a kind of amazement pouring out of his chest and abdomen.
Well, it doesn't matter.
According to the previous thoughts, he walked to Xi Mansion, although Xie Yun married the Xi family, but now he is far away in Huiji Shanyin, even if he wants to entrust Xianglan with her, Xie Xiaoman may not have time to rush over now.
What if you die halfway through?
At this thought, Xie Xiaoman couldn't help laughing.
I don't know what I'm laughing at, Xie Xiaoman didn't bother to think deeply, he still flew to the wall to a house at the shallow entrance next to Wuyi Lane, and saw the sign of Xifu hanging on it, so he ran in.
Went directly into the inner courtyard and walked around on the eaves, but found that this Xifu was really quiet, with three doors and three entrances, and there were not too many people up and down. After walking around for a long time, I saw a familiar small figure in the courtyard, squatting in the corner of the wall, holding a branch in his hand, not knowing what he was playing with.
Curious, he turned over and went down the wall and leaned over: "Hey, little guy, what are you playing?" ”
The little guy who was poking at the ant nest was Xi Changshuo, he was startled by Xie Xiaoman, who suddenly appeared, his legs were weak, and he turned around and sat on the ant nest.
Xie Xiaoman couldn't help laughing, stretched out his hand to pull him up again, and asked with a smile, "Where is your father?" Not at home? ”
Xi Changshuo has never seen Xie Xiaoman since his last request to elope was refused.
Although it is a child's heart, no matter what is big, it will still be in the back of his mind for a moment, but at this time, when he saw the main master, Xi Changshuo still blushed a little, although he couldn't say that he was twisted, but his whole body was full of unhappiness, and his eyes at Xie Xiaoman were somewhat sad.
Xie Xiaoman was furious by such a small look, and hurriedly rubbed his head: "What do you say, little handsome guy." ”
Xi Changshuo's eyes were slightly red, and he nodded: "Daddy is at home, and he is talking about things in the study." ”
"Which way does the study go?"
Xi Changshuo pointed to the north.
"Thank you, handsome little man." Xie Xiaoman rubbed Xiao Zhengtai's hair again.
Xi Changshuo pouted, raised his hands to cover his head, and when he saw Xie Xiaoman pulling his legs and leaving, he hurriedly caught up with two steps and asked hesitantly: "That, you, ...... me?"
"Are you afraid I won't find the study, so you want to take me there? No, don't worry, I'll ask again. Xie Xiaoman stuck out his tongue.
"Not really!" Xi Changshuo's little face turned red, "That, are you married?" ”
Xie Xiaoman couldn't cry or laugh when he heard this, so he had to stop, arched his waist slightly, and lowered his body to look at him: "No." ”
"Oh!" Xi Changshuo's eyes lit up, and he nodded in various ways, "Okay!" I know! Don't worry! I'm going to grow up soon! ”
After that, he ran away in a mess.
Xie Xiaoman was speechless for a while, and he didn't know what mood to use to face it, so he finally had to shake his head and smile, thinking that this was just a child's whim, and he would forget about it after a while.
Besides, I'm about to hang up anyway, what can I do with these mundane things?
"Xie Niangzi? Rare, rare. ”
Xi Chao's voice came from behind him, and Xie Xiaoman turned around and saw a face with scrutiny and sadness.
Examine oneself, as for sorrow...... Having such a son as Xi Changshuo is indeed sad enough.
"Lord Xi." Xie Xiaoman arched his hand, didn't delay much, and said his intention directly, and added, "Actually, I should tell my sister directly, but I won't be in the same city for a while, it's really hard to say." I have already written a letter that is detailed, and I hope that Lord Xi can ask the people to help bring it back. ”
"It's a small thing." Xi Chao nodded, "Xie Niangzi values love and righteousness, but she is a model for my generation." ”
Xie Xiaoman smiled: "This is really an exaggeration, but it is just an obligation." Then please leave this matter to Lord Xi. ”
"Don't dare." Xi Chao saw that Xie Xiaoman was leaving and was leaving, and hurriedly said, "Xie Niangzi, please stay, there is one thing, I have to trouble you." ”
"What's the matter?" Xie Xiaoman was slightly stunned, he didn't understand that a character like Xi Chao needed his own help.
"Please ask Mrs. Xie to come to the study and discuss something." Xi Chao arched his hand at Xie Xiaoman, looking a little solemn.
After all, he had just entrusted someone to do something, and Xie Xiaoman couldn't refuse at this time, so he had to nod and follow.
Xi Chao led the way in front, and didn't say what was going on for a while, just a few warm words, saying something homely, and not focusing on the point.
Xie Xiaoman responded while looking at the servants around him, thinking that this Xi Chao must have something unspeakable and difficult for others to know.
However, how can such a thing be found by yourself? It's weird.
"Xie Niangzi is one of General Huan's staff, I want to talk to Xie Niangzi about some confidential things, you step down first." Walking to the study, Xi Chaoyi waved his hand at the subordinates behind him.
The servants looked at each other for a while, this lonely man and widow were in the same room, it was really unpleasant to say, it stands to reason that even if they were subordinates, they had the need to prevent similar things from happening.
If Xie Xiaoman was just a little maid in Xi's mansion, they naturally didn't dare to disturb, but Xie Xiaoman's identity was different after all, if he was involved in any messy things......
Seeing that the servants were like this, Xi Chao also had some hidden anger in his heart, so he put on an angry look, flicked his sleeves, and scolded angrily: "Why, who gave you the courage to not even listen to my words!" ”
The servants did not dare to say anything, and retreated one after another. It's just that in the process of retreating, it is indispensable to look at Xie Xiaoman a few more times.
Xie Xiaoman didn't have any superfluous thoughts, he just raised his head and looked at the sky in a daze at this time.
When the servants retreated, Xi Chao sighed slightly, opened the door of the study, and made a "please" gesture to Xie Xiaoman: "Xie Niangzi, I'm really sorry, I have wronged you." It's also super ill-conceived, which will inevitably tarnish your reputation. It's just that this matter is really anxious and tricky now, and I hope that Xie Niangzi will help!
