Chapter 190: A New Identity
Hearing this, Qiu Ye couldn't help but sneer.
Even Xia Ting heard the mockery.
"Your Si family, the relatives of the emperor and businessmen who are good-sounding, but the ones that are not good-sounding are just empty shells that have been set aside, and they have nothing to show for themselves." Ironically, Qiu Ye is no less impressive.
Watching them talk about each other, the language is sharp, but you can feel the friendship between them. Xia Ting smiled secretly. Of course, she also noticed some information, it turned out that this Si family was an imperial businessman or a relative, no wonder Qiu Ye kept saying those very mysterious words.
The courtyard is very large, with nine curves and eighteen bends, just like the size of a modern park. If she hadn't deliberately memorized the way, the path she took wasn't very complicated, and she would have been lost by now.
The strange thing is that there are very few people I saw along the way, which is no different from what Qiu Ye said, "there is nothing to show for it", could it be that the Si family has really fallen to this point?
"Xiaoting, this is your small courtyard, see if you are satisfied? I set it up according to your hobbies when you were a kid. Si Zhan opened the door, and the first thing that caught his eye was a row of trees with redbud flowers, red pink and purple flowers competing on the branches, and the breeze was blowing, falling petals one after another, wafting with the afterfragrance. What a beautiful picture.
Xia Ting couldn't bear to disturb such a beautiful picture, and even stepped into it carefully.
Looking at her performance, a trace of nostalgia flashed in Si Zhan's eyes, and he said in words that only Qiu Ye and himself could hear: "Only my sister is so obsessed. β
Qiu Ye snapped his fingers in front of him and said, "Come back to your senses." You know, they're different people. β
Si Zhan's eyes flickered, "Yes." I looked at my sister...... This is her child. β
Qiu Ye's fist behind his back suddenly clenched, "In the future, do you really want to involve her?" β
"The Si family will not back down." Si Zhan looked out of the sky with a firm look.
"She doesn't understand anything yet, so take it easy. Otherwise...... Oh, your Si family, it's really the last. Suddenly, Qiu Ye slanted a smile, and while he didn't have a seizure, he immediately ran to the next door to Xia Ting.
Si Zhan was almost so angry that he spat blood. Why did he act like this? It's not for his.
It's a thankless job.
Xia Ting took a cursory look, she liked it very much, and there was a warm sense of intimacy, but the two old men were on both sides of her like door gods, and they felt a lot of pressure. She still put it aside for now, and had to look at it again when she was free.
"Do you like it?"
Xia Ting nodded hurriedly, "I like it, I like it very much." Very comfortable feeling. β
However, there was a strange question that kept hovering in her mind, "How many of us are there in the house?" "In my impression, there are many people in the Sifu, but she has come all the way, like an empty city?
Xia Ting and Qiu Ye looked at Si Zhan at the same time, only to see him sneer: "Those people are also worthy of living with our Xiaoting?" Hmph, those who don't see it, I drove them out a long time ago. "Si Zhan is right, that's called pride. That look almost said that he needed to boast.
"Ahaha, won't it attract their revenge?" Xia Ting was worried about this. However, when I heard him say that everyone else was not there, I immediately relaxed.
What she is most afraid of is to face those old foxes, kill people without blinking, and she is the most afraid of pain.
This uncle is doing a good job.
Si Zhan sneered, his eyes full of disdain, "They? A group of white-eyed wolf kids, it's not enough for me to play. "I don't know if it's a delusion, Xia Ting saw hatred in his seriousness.
After thinking about it, by the way, he had a good relationship with the girl's mother, and he loved the house and Wu. But because of her mother, it takes a lot of courage to break with her own family.
"Xiaoting, do you want a slave to wait for you?" Si Zhan asked suddenly.
Xia Ting was shocked, and hurriedly waved his hand to refuse. She didn't want to be watched by someone else in her private life, and she didn't feel comfortable.
Tired of walking around, Xia Ting also had a general understanding of the structure of their mansion, and the most important thing was to know the distance between her and Si Zhan's house, the huge mansion, and now the two of them are left to live.
They went to Xia Ting's courtyard to sit down and chat, Xia Ting took local materials, started to brew a pot of flower tea, and looked at Qiu Ye, who had not left for a long time, "Uncle, I have something to ask you." β
The words were said to Si Zhan, but she kept looking at Qiu Ye, and the meaning was very clear, this was the rhythm of driving people.
Xia Ting raised his eyebrows twice, and the stinky boy walked away quickly.
Qiu Ye looked back without timidity, and his feet were more relaxed, obviously not taking her words seriously.
Ouch, it's her territory, and she's still so arrogant?
"Oh, ask, ask." Si Zhan was a little anxious, he had never seen this niece before, and he only wished that he could not pluck the moon for her.
Xia Ting still didn't speak.
"She's waiting for me to go." But Qiu Ye himself said it.
Si Zhan blurted out, "Then you go backwards." β
Qiu Ye kicked over, Si Zhan was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, "Oh, Xiaoting, he is his own person, don't be taboo against him." β
Xia Ting was puzzled, "What kind of medicine are you selling in the gourd?" What do you know about my background? What did you do to hide from me? What are you using me to plot against? "She felt like she was being kept in the dark, being called on.
Seeing Xia Ting's reaction so big, Si Zhan immediately panicked, "Xiaoting Xiaoting, you listen to my explanation." I didn't mean to hide it from you, but I didn't have time to explain it to you because of the urgency of time. I won't hurt you. "People all over the world are doing bad to her, but he won't.
"Then tell me all of them today." Xia Ting sat down, his hands folded and he looked like he was listening.
She had been waiting for this moment, for a long time.
Qiu Ye took a sip of tea, "Let's start with her life experience." β
Xia Ting felt very confused, he, an outsider, how could he be more familiar with Yazi than himself? She subconsciously touched the bracelet again.
Si Zhan saw her movements and thought of how to start, "Oh yes, it's actually a long story." This bracelet is the heirloom of our company. Only women are passed on, not men. This bracelet will only appear in the family members who are destined to do so, otherwise it is just an ordinary piece of jewelry. Nothing happened to your mother, but a miracle happened to you......"
Seeing that the two men were both serious about themselves, Xia Ting felt that he was under a lot of pressure, "I...... It's ordinary, and there's no great wisdom. β
Si Zhan nodded: "It's okay." "If there is a vision, the bracelet will be like the one in your hand, with a crimson red fire, and they will go through a journey to another world, during which she needs a quiet environment that cannot be disturbed." When the time comes, she will come back to change the fate of our family. So, Xiaoting, you are the chosen one, but don't worry, I'll help you. β
Xia Ting held her head, she would think that the truth was terrible, but she didn't expect it to be so terrible, what a bizarre thing, but there were too many strange things happening to her, and she could only accept it. This also illustrates a problem, she is crossing! But from antiquity to modern times? Traveling and coming back? But what did she learn? I didn't learn anything before I came back.
She was originally ancient. That makes sense, she's an orphan.
Si Zhan waved his hand in front of her and asked tentatively, "Have you come back to your senses?" β
Xia Ting nodded calmly, and quickly accepted the fact: "Hmm." So, what problem is the government encountering now? She wouldn't suspect that this was a bureau set up by Qiu Ye, first, they all knew the secret she had never said, and second, she heard the voice of the system telling her to complete the stealth task, and she was rewarded with 50 points!! The life-saving point is again!
Does that mean that she has the capital to make a mistake again?
When I thought about it like this, I was instantly confident. I couldn't dodge it, so I rose to the challenge. She's ready!
Qiu Ye looked at her rich expression, and knew that she was immersed in her own world again, and couldn't help but smile.
Si Zhan thought for a moment and organized the wording, "I actually don't know how much information it gave you," Si Zhan pointed to her bracelet and continued, "Our Si family and your father have been in a slump since they were framed. Especially there are still some bloodsuckers in the family, our Si family, just like that kid said, is already an empty shell. β
Frame? Xia Ting quietly asked, "Is it because the above can't get used to us?" β
Si Zhan's hands clenched suddenly, and his eyes were red and bloodshot: "Let's protect the Lord wholeheartedly, I didn't expect ......"
Understood, Xia Ting understands. They have been emperors and businessmen for generations, and they hold the economic power, and it is estimated that they are threatening the throne, and they can't see it.
"In a war, he framed your father for betraying the enemy and surrendering, your mother had no choice but to come back to the Si family to take refuge, but the Si family was already difficult to protect itself, they didn't find problems from themselves, and blamed this disaster on your mother, your mother's body was originally weak, and I was not in the Si house, so I ...... If only I had come back sooner. Si Zhan's eyes were moist, and he couldn't help covering his eyes. Xia Ting's heart softened, even a person with a rough nerve like her could feel his self-blame and guilt, and he didn't come out of it for so many years.
He is estimated to be older than Qiu Ye, but he looks more than ten years old, young and gray.
"Uncle, don't be sad. I am back. Xia Ting didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only say this awkwardly.
Qiu Ye also said: "Yes, is it okay to have a little face?" Crying so ugly in front of his niece. He reached over and wanted to pat Si Zhan for comfort.
Unexpectedly, Si Zhan opened his hand, threw himself on Xia Ting and cried, Xia Ting was at a loss for a while.
Qiu Ye jumped to his feet and stepped forward to pull Si Zhan's hand, "You let her go for me!" Don't sell misery here, I'll tell you. β
"Oh, that's enough!" Xia Ting was helpless, how old these two were combined, more naΓ―ve than a child.
"So, our plan now is that the two of you join forces to deal with him?" Xia Ting forcibly pulled back the topic.
