Bell House.

Zhao Zhijie sat down at the table, looked at Zhong Mingli, and asked, "Why, when the distinguished guests came to the door, didn't they even have a cup of hot tea?" ”

"Guest?" Zhong Mingli looked at him, snorted coldly, and said, "For so many years, you haven't grown much elsewhere, and your skin is getting thicker and thicker." ”

"In that case, Zhao said goodbye." Zhao Zhijie stood up and said, "The identity of your uncle, you can check it yourself......

Zhong Mingli was stunned, and hurriedly asked, "Did you find out?" ”

"Does it matter?" Zhao Zhijie glanced at him and said, "Let's go, at least I can drink a cup of hot tea in my own home......"

"Tea!"

Zhong Mingli looked at the maid waiting on the side and said, "Take out the pot of good tea in my study!" ”

The tea was steaming hot, exuding a refreshing fragrance, Zhong Mingli looked at him and asked, "Found it?" ”

Zhao Zhijie sat down again, glanced at him lightly, and asked: "For so many years, you haven't grown much elsewhere, and your head is getting more and more confused...... you don't even know what his identity is, where he lives, and whether he is married, so you dare to marry him?" ”

"He's married?" Zhong Mingli's face changed, he stood up abruptly, and asked loudly.

"Not really."

Zhao Zhijie shook his head, looked at him, and said, "Some time ago, there was a case of population loss under my jurisdiction, and I didn't find it for a long time, but I didn't know that it was lost to your Zhong family. ”

Zhong Mingli breathed a sigh of relief and muttered, "It's good if you're not married yet." ”

Zhao Zhijie took a sip of tea, shook his head again, and said: "I also heard this morning that some time ago, a young girl came to the county government every day to inquire about his news, you might as well guess, is she your aunt's sister or sister?" ”

Zhong Mingli slapped the table violently and said angrily: "Can you finish it all at once!" ”

Zhao Zhijie took a sip of tea, and said unhurriedly: "I have sent someone to investigate in detail, Tang Ning, a native of Sujia Village, should take the state exam in September this year, two months ago, when I went to the state city to register, I disappeared inexplicably, and I haven't heard from him since, if you hadn't hidden your aunt so well, you wouldn't have even revealed your name, and you wouldn't have found him until today......"

Zhong Mingli looked at him and asked, "His surname is Tang, why is he from Sujia Village?" ”

Zhao Zhijie put a few pieces of paper on the table and said: "His household registration is in Sujia Village, and he is an abandoned ......child picked up by a farmer in Sujia Village 17 years ago."

Zhao Zhijie looked at him and added: "That farmer also has a daughter who grew up with him since childhood......

He put down the teacup, thought about it, and said: "I guess, the two of them grew up together, they must be childhood sweethearts, and the two have no guess......es."

"The peasant couple raised him, and after the two died, the woman raised silkworms and spun silk, and washed clothes for the big family for him to study......

"Although they were not married, it is said that the peasant couple raised him as an aunt from the beginning......

……

"Finished?" Zhong Mingli finished reading the household registration information in his hand, looked at Zhao Zhijie, and said, "Let's leave when I'm done." ”

When his voice landed, he looked out the door and said, "Qing'er, remove the tea." ”

Zhao Zhijie looked at him and asked, "You don't need to cross the river and tear down the bridge like this, right?" ”

Zhong Mingli looked at him and asked, "Are you here to see me today?" ”

"You guessed it." Zhao Zhijie nodded, looked left and right again, and asked, "What about Yuxian, why didn't you come out today, we haven't seen each other for a long time......

"See what you see! Yuxian is also your name? Zhong Mingli stood up and said angrily: "Qing'er, send off!" ”

Zhao Zhijie frowned and said, "Zhong Mingli, you won't be like this, ...... back then"

"Back then, you were embarrassed to mention that year!" Zhong Mingli looked at him with a frown, "If it wasn't for you, ...... back then"

"If it weren't for me, you would have been able to take down your wife in three days?"

Zhao Zhijie looked at him, shook his head and said: "Zhong Mingli, the biggest shortcoming of your person is your mother-in-law, you should be decided, your attitude is vague, it was like this back then, and it is the same now, if you are a little more decisive, Xiaoyi can be forced to marry by Dong Tingshi?" ”

Zhong Mingli was speechless.

"Someone is not welcome, and it is not interesting for this official to stay here with a dead face......" Zhao Zhijie glanced at Zhong Mingli, picked up a wooden box on the table, and said: "This tea is good, I took ......"

Zhao Zhijie walked out of the door, Zhong Mingli ignored him, felt sorry for his tea for a while, sat down again, rubbed his eyebrows, and said with a headache: "Childhood sweetheart......

……

Tang Ning sensed that between him and Zhongyi, that familiar feeling returned.

She walked all the way back, holding his arm without letting go.

She turned her head to look at Tang Ning and asked, "You want Xiao Yao to teach you martial arts?" ”

Tang Ning nodded and asked, "Is her martial arts powerful?" ”

"I don't know......" Zhongyi shook his head and said, "However, since I was a child, as long as she is here, no one dares to bully us......"

Tang Ning didn't know how powerful the martial arts in this world were, but the scene when Tang Yaoyao jumped on the courtyard wall with a light jump still deeply shocked him.

If you learn this trick, you can go to the wall and pick flowers over the wall.

"Anyway, if you're idle, you'll be idle, learn more tricks with her, and it's good ......to keep fit, besides, learn some kung fu, be prepared, maybe you can use it when you can." Tang Ning thought for a while, and said: "However, you can only practice during the day, not at night, otherwise you will be hungry in the middle ......of the night."

Zhong Yi looked at him and said with a smile: "It's okay, if you're hungry, I'll cook for you......"

Tang Ning smiled and said, "Then it's okay......

Zhong Yi nodded and said, "Okay......"

Zhong Yi had a shallow smile on his face, and when he walked to the door of Zhongfu, he seemed to have made a decision, took a deep breath, suddenly turned his head to look at him, and said, "The thing that my mother said that day, I actually ...... it."

Before she finished speaking, behind the two of them, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps.

Then came a slightly trembling voice from a woman.

"Brother Xiao Ning......"

Downing turned his head and saw the woman he had just met, standing a few steps behind them.

The woman was wearing a cloth dress with patches at the corners of her skirt, her face was pale, a sickly white, and fine sweat appeared on her forehead, as if she was running all the way, her breathing was slightly short, and she stood there, looking at Tang Ning in a daze.

Tang Ning looked at the woman and wondered, "You, are you calling me?" ”

His own voice trembled a little, because of a sense of familiarity that came from the depths of his soul when he saw the woman, and a deep pity that involuntarily arose when he saw her pale face.

"There is a small scar on your left arm, which was accidentally burned three months ago." The woman looked at her, stretched out her left hand, pointed to a certain position on her wrist, and smiled.

Downing's body vibrated slightly.

He rolled up the sleeve of his left hand, and above his wrist, there was a scald scar the size of a grain of rice where the woman's finger was pointing.

The scar was small, something he had only stumbled upon when he was taking a shower the other day.

As if realizing something, Zhongyi's face began to turn slightly pale.

The woman looked at him and continued, "On your right arm there is also a shallow scar the size of a copper coin, which you have had since you were a child. ”

Tang Ning didn't continue to roll up his sleeves, this scar was almost at his shoulder, although it was very shallow, but it could still be seen clearly.

Zhong Yi saw the answer from Tang Ning's face, and she slowly let go of Tang Ning's hand, her face even paler.

Tang Ning looked at the woman: "Girl, you ......"

The woman looked at him, took a deep breath, and said with a smile: "Brother Xiao Ning, I finally found you......"

After she said this, she breathed a long sigh of relief, and the whole person fell to the ground.

Tang Ning hurriedly stepped forward, held her up, and said anxiously: "Girl, girl......"
