Chapter 18: In the Dark

The rain is getting heavier and heavier.

Han Jia looked at the pouring rain outside the room, "Xiao Long, go pick up Jinhua." ”

Xiao Long said "Okay" and stood up.

Cen Xiao stood up, "I'll go." ”

Han Jia stopped, "No need, just ask Xiao Long to go." ”

As he was talking, Xiao Jinhua had already entered the courtyard.

Xiao Jinhua pushed the door into the house.

Xiao Long, Han Jia, and Cen Xiao were all stunned for a moment.

In such a heavy rain, Xiao Jinhua was holding a broken umbrella, but he was not drenched.

Xiao Jinhua looked at everyone's strange eyes strangely, "What are you doing?" Haven't you seen me for a few days? ”

Xiao Long looked at the broken umbrella that Xiao Jinhua was carrying, "Girl, what about the umbrella I gave you?" ”

Xiao Jinhua let out an "oh", "I met an old woman and gave it to her." ”

Xiao Jinhua told the ins and outs.

Xiao Long, Han Jia, and Cen Xiao did not speak.

Xiao Jinhua said: "What's wrong? What's wrong? ”

Han Jia appreciated, "Jinhua, you did a good job, there is nothing wrong." Hurry up and pick up and rest. Your father and I were talking to Aunt Cen Xiao for a while. ”

Xiao Jinhua looked at them, nodded and walked into his room.

Cen Xiao looked at the broken umbrella standing next to the coffee table, "Brother, do you know this umbrella?" ”

"I think I've seen it somewhere, but it's been a year since I saw a tattered umbrella."

"The umbrella is shabby though. I recognize. ”

"Cen Xiao, how did you recognize this umbrella?"

"Because it used to be my umbrella."

Xiao Long was puzzled, "How is it possible?" ”

"The handle of the umbrella is engraved with the word 'Xiao'."

Han Jia took the umbrella, looked at the handle, and handed it to Xiao Long.

A real 'Xiao' character is engraved on the handle of the umbrella.

Han Jia thought thoughtfully, "A few days ago, Jin Hua sent Su Yan back to the Song family, and met Kang Wu's nephew Kang Bingzhi halfway, Kang Bingzhi, the son of Kang Qian and Zhang Fei, and had a small confrontation. The Su family, the Song family, and the Xiao family were connected after more than 20 years. ”

Today, the old woman reappeared after more than 20 years and gave Xiao Jinhua an umbrella. Is it all a coincidence? Will the peaceful and prosperous times make waves again? ”

Xiao Long nodded, "Everything is in the dark, and it has its own arrangements." It's better not to say it's broken. ”

Han Jia looked out the window, "We've been chatting for a long time." Cen Xiao has a hard journey, so let's have a good rest. We'll talk about it tomorrow. ”

Cen Xiao stood up, "Okay, brother, sister, you should also rest early." Good night. ”

"Good night. ”

"Good night."

Cen Xiao, Xiao Long and Han Jia went back to their rooms to rest.

Xiao Jinhua was lying on the bed, thinking that Su Yan was asleep.

She had a dream.

She dreamed that Su Yan was walking with difficulty in the wind and rain, and suddenly a group of masked men in black surrounded Su Yan, and the men in black launched an attack on Su Yan.

Su Yan fought back hard, he knocked down many people in black, but there were more and more people in black, and Su Yan gradually lost his physical strength.

Xiao Jinhua came out of the darkness and helped Su Yan fight back against the man in black.

The number of people in black is constantly increasing.

When both she and Su Yan felt exhausted, the old woman who gave her the broken umbrella fell from the sky and rescued her and Su Yan.

By the time she was about to thank the old woman, she was gone.

She looked back at Su Yan again, and Su Yan was also nowhere to be seen.

Xiao Jinhua sat up from the bed and stroked his hair.

She wiped the sweat from her head, turned around and put on her slippers, and walked to the bedroom window to watch the rain drip on the lawn of the yard.

She was thinking, Su Yan, where are you and what are you doing?

I really miss you.

Are you thinking about me too?

Xiao Jinhua stared blankly at the night, she sighed softly, and said to herself, as if facing Su Yan, she was lovesick all day long, and she was haggard for Jun.

Su Yan, are you the same?

Xiao Jinhua slowly turned back, walked to the bed, and fell on the bed with a crooked body.

She was still thinking about the dream she had just had, and closed her eyes in a daze.

Suddenly she heard a knock at the door, immediately got up, put on her shoes, and ran out, and she saw a dark shadow running out of the courtyard.

She tightened her figure and swooped out.

The shadow stopped in a small garden not far from her home.

Xiao Jinhua chased after her, and saw that it was the old woman who exchanged umbrellas with her.

The old woman still held Xiao Jinhua's umbrella in her hand.

Xiao Jinhua bowed forward and clenched his fists, "Old woman, you came to visit late at night, what do you have to teach you?" ”

The old woman smiled, "The little daughter of the Xiao family is really a kind and intelligent child." ”

Xiao Jinhua bowed again, "Thank you for the old man's praise." ”

"This is fate, wherever you go, you can meet people from your Xiao family. Mother-in-law will teach you three tricks and two styles tonight, which may be able to solve your difficult needs. ”

said that it was too late, and the tip of the old woman's umbrella had reached Xiao Jinhua's neck.

Xiao Jinhua quickly turned around and dodged the tip of the umbrella.

Xiao Jinhua felt that the umbrella handle was in the back of his mind, and quickly rolled his head sideways to let the umbrella handle pass.

The old woman's umbrella had been opened, wrapping Xiao Jinhua inside.

Xiao Jinhua leaned in front of the old woman, the old woman turned sideways and threw Xiao Jinhua out, she had not yet landed, the tip of the umbrella, the umbrella body, and the handle of the umbrella were entangled in countless changes.

Xiao Jinhua concentrated his energy, mobilized the Qiankun Tiangang to protect his body, and turned together with the old woman's umbrella battle.

Umbrellas are ever-changing and ever-changing.

It contains seven stars and nine fortunes, which is also endlessly mysterious.

Xiao Jinhua remembers that the melons are ripe with one move and one style.

Xiao Jinhua was covered in sweat, and gradually became exhausted.

Suddenly, the old woman shouted "Seven Star Umbrella, rise", and she was thrown into the sky.

She cried out and fell.

She heard a knock at the door.

Xiao Jinhua sat up suddenly.

She heard her mother outside the door, "Jinhua, what are you shouting?" Is it a dream? ”

"Mom, it's okay, it's just a dream."

"It's still early, let's sleep a little longer."

Xiao Jinhua replied in bed, "Okay, Mom, go to bed too." ”

Xiao Jinhua shook his soaked pajamas, thought about it, and had a strange dream just now.

She didn't feel sleepy at all.

She got out of bed and walked into the bathroom.

Under the shower, she still thought about the tricks of the seven-star umbrella.
