"What Sister Xi'er?" Feng Qi asked with a dark face on the side.

Zhinan patted Fengqi happily and said, "Xi'er! Xi'er! I! Hee Wen! ”

Feng Qi had a dark face on the side, and pulled Zhinan to whisper, "Isn't the girl reluctant to mention this name, she has been incognito for so long, why did she reveal her real name because of someone she never knew?"

Zhinan explained in a low voice on the side, "Brother Qi, this is the first time I have met a person who can tell the story of my family's past, this matter has always been a click in my heart, and I have always felt that my house suddenly caught fire since I grew up, and it is indeed strange." Now that you and I are here, and there are people who know, why don't you know more? ”

"But he called you sister Xi'er......" Feng Qi muttered, and he was speechless by Zhinan's words, so he could only swallow the sourness in his heart, sat next to Zhinan, and drank the wine.

Zhinan poked his head out and asked Chu Xubai, "Brother Xubai should be much older than me when he sees that you are much older, so I will call you Brother Xubai." Do you have any impressions of our family's past? ”

Chu Xubai patted his thigh and said to Zhinan, "Girl, you said your name is Xiwen, don't you remember me?" When I was a child, you always followed behind me, I took you out to play, you call me every day, Brother Bai, Brother Bai, and now you are polite to me? ”

Zhinan looked at Chu Xubai and listened to the words that came out of his mouth. I don't have any memory in my head.

In fact, before the fire, she was still called Xiwen at that time, and she was indeed carefree all day long behind this brother who was a few years older than herself. At that time, the Chu family was in the business of a tavern, and Xiwen's father was a salt merchant who sold salt, so naturally the two families had dealings, and the children also got closer.

In the fire that night, Xiwen watched her parents be engulfed by the raging fire, which left a big shadow on Xiwen's psychology when she was still very young at that time. People, after receiving a certain amount of stimulation, their minds and bodies will instinctively protect themselves, so Xiwen's memories at that stage seem to have been swallowed up with the fire.

Zhinan shook his head, looked at Chu Xubai and said, "I really don't have an impression of this." ”

Feng Qi said coldly on the side, "Brother Xubai, you won't be taking advantage of my family Zhinan here, right?" Speaking of these stories, Zhinan can't remember a single thing. ”

Chu Xubai is also a gentleman, and he was not angered by Feng Qi's sour words, he looked at Zhinan and said, "It's normal that Sister Xi'er doesn't remember, you were still too young at that time, and you must have experienced a lot of winds and waves later, and it's normal if you don't remember." I just wanted to tell you that I do have some impressions of the place where you were a kid. ”

"Do you know the cause of that fire?" Zhinan asked curiously.

Chu Xubai took a sip of wine and said lightly, "Actually, the fire in your house was very strange back then. Actually, I was a child at that time, and I just remember that night your house caught fire and people died. After returning home, my parents also sat in the room and sighed for a long time, and I listened to the meaning of the words through the crack in the door, as if my parents guessed that someone had deliberately harmed your family. But I didn't hear the specifics too clearly. In fact, later, I did go to your house to look for you, and my parents also said that if they saw you, they would take you home, and our family would support you. My mother told me at the time that I should go to find Xi'er's sister, and that the family would be able to afford an extra ration. ”

When Zhinan heard this, her eyes were full of tears in surprise, although she couldn't remember what Chu Xubai said about his father and mother, but according to what he said, it seems that the Chu family must have a very good relationship with her parents. It's just that I was really too young back then, and after encountering this incident, no one around me could pay attention to me at that time, so I wandered around and walked around to the Ningxin Pavilion.

If it was really in response to what Chu Xubai said, she grew up in their family, and now she should be a girl living a different life. She shook the hand beside her, looked at him and said, "Brother Qi, I want to go to this Xubai brother Zhang's house to visit, to visit his parents, and see if his parents can know about my family back then." ”

Feng Qi listened to Zhinan's words, frowned, thought for a while, and asked, "Does the girl really want to visit?" If they say something that makes you sad, or memories that make your heart ache. I don't want you to bear this sadness. ”

Zhinan shook his head, looked at Feng Qi with a gentle face, and said, "No, I have grown so big alone, and I have experienced any winds and waves, and I can put forward such words with my brother, so I am really prepared." Besides, you're by my side. ”

Feng Qi looked at Zhinan's affirmative look, and he didn't stop him much. He understands Zhinan's thoughts, if one day. If someone can really tell you about your background. I may not know that Nan is calm, and I will definitely follow the person without thinking.

Now that they have one day of free time outside, since they couldn't accompany Zhinan through the difficult years of his life, then now accompany her to figure out what happened, and it is also his love for Zhinan. If Zhinan can really figure this matter out, then she will have no regrets in her life in the future.

Unlike himself, his heart tightened when he thought of this. If he insisted on going to Tianqing back then, he didn't believe what the master said. The two of them still support each other and continue to live a life of relying on each other, maybe Tianqing will not become the hideous appearance he later has, and he will not die in front of him.

Thinking of this, he nodded, patted Zhinan's shoulder, took her in his arms, and said softly to her, "I'll go with you." ”

After speaking, he looked at Chu Xubai on the other side and said, "Brother Xubai, since you and Zhinan are old friends, your father and mother are close friends with Zhinan's parents. Although we didn't know each other before today, Feng thanked you here, and Brother Bai took me and Zhinan to put the second elder of your family in a while. Let's see if I can see if I know the worries and doubts in Nan's heart for many years. ”

Chu Xubai poured the remaining half glass of wine in front of him into his mouth, and hugged his fists at Feng Qi and Zhinan. said, "It's a great fate for us to be able to meet again for so many years, and if we can solve the distress in Xi'er's sister's heart, we will definitely not give up." ”
