Chapter 436 Tranquility
The two of them were eating in the kitchen, Xiaoxue suddenly thought of something and said, "Wang Da has already come, but the old lady and the young lady have not yet arrived, if the two of them are coming, I'm afraid we won't be able to leave the capital." β
Mo Xincheng didn't say anything but silently lowered his head to eat, while Xiaoxue looked at him, staring intently, thinking that when he was in Xinghua Village, the person Xiaoxue liked was Zhang Xiang, and he always felt that Zhang Xiang was more capable and reliable.
But now, I get along with Mo Xincheng a lot, although he usually doesn't talk much, and people always look dull, but at critical times, Mo Xincheng can always come up with a way to solve the problem, which makes Xiaoxue feel more and more down-to-earth, and her feeling about Mo Xincheng is getting better and better.
"By the way, where are you from?"
Mo Xincheng didn't expect Xiaoxue to suddenly ask this question, and was stunned for a moment, "Why do you suddenly ask that?" β
"I just wanted to ask, we've known each other for so long, but we don't even know where you are or where you come from."
He frowned slightly, as if he was not too happy to talk about it, "Do you remember the big water in our neighboring town?" β
"Of course I remember, my sister-in-law helped a lot with that incident, and it was at that time that my sister-in-law met you and brought you home."
"Yes." Mo Xincheng said in a low voice, "I am a disaster victim in that town, my parents died in the flood and I was the only one left, because I was too hungry to rob other people's things, I met Mrs. when I was chased and beaten by others, fortunately, Mrs. was kind enough to take me in, otherwise I might have died at the hands of those people." β
Saying this, Xiaoxue nodded, "It turns out that you are also an unfortunate person, it seems that the two of us are really a little sympathetic." She smiled slightly, "Thank you sister-in-law for taking us in and giving us a home, so no matter what happens to my sister-in-law in the future, I will stay by her side and support her." Even if I can't do anything big, I can still do things like handing tea and pouring water, cleaning and cooking. β
"You have this heart, and you are already much stronger than others." Mo Xincheng encouraged.
At this time, I heard someone in the yard talking, "Is Boss Chen at home?" β
The two of them were slightly stunned, and at the same time put down their chopsticks and walked towards the courtyard, and saw a person standing in the courtyard, because the sky was a little dark at the moment, and only saw the figure of this person in the distance, Mo Xincheng stepped forward and saw a strange person, "Who are you?" What's the matter with Boss Chen? β
Mo Xincheng was still wondering, why did the people in front of him let them in, there should be an open door, and strangers can't easily come to the back yard at this time.
The man spoke politely, "I am the housekeeper of the Li Mansion, and I came here specifically to talk to Boss Chen about things, I told the people in front of me before that they let me in." β
"Li Mansion?"
Mo Xincheng obviously didn't know, and the man explained, "It's Mr. Li's mansion, you should know him, right?" A few days ago, Boss Chen visited Mr. Li's house. β
He'd heard a little bit about it.
"It turned out to be someone from Mr. Li's house, come in." Chen Youyi walked out of the house and led the person into the hall, "It's so late, I don't know what happened to you coming?" β
Chen Youyi was curious, the last time he visited Li Batian, the matter had basically been negotiated, why did he suddenly send someone over? Her heart sank, could it be that something could go wrong on the other side of the docks?
"That's right, Mr. Li wants to take a look on the dock tomorrow, the things over there have always been left to others to do, Mr. Li occasionally goes to take a look, because you visited Mr. Li last time, so he wants to go with you."
After hearing this, Chen Youyi understood, "It turns out that it's because of this matter, it's okay, I just have time tomorrow, I will go and take a look with you, and if there is anything, we will discuss it at that time." β
The housekeeper of the Li Mansion also immediately stood up, "Since this is the case, I will leave here, because the incident happened suddenly, and Mr. Li hopes to inform you, so I'm really sorry to bother you so late." β
"It's okay, I'll be there on time tomorrow morning." Chen Youyi got up to send him off.
After the person left, she looked at Xiaoxue, "What about Xianggong?" Why didn't anyone see him? β
"You didn't come out to eat just now, Brother Qin said that he had something to go out to deal with, so he went out, and he hasn't come back yet."
Chen Youyi frowned, it seemed that it was because his emotions just now had affected Qin Ziheng, but in fact, he had been alone in the room during this time, and he had thought a lot.
Although Qin Ziheng and Lele had feelings at the beginning, and the two of them also talked about marriage, but now they are the wife that Qin Ziheng is marrying, and the two of them have also experienced so many things in the past two years, and the relationship is obvious to everyone.
Chen Youyi can also feel Qin Ziheng's care and love for herself in her heart, since she has this concern, why should she be entangled in those things back then?
And those things were not done by themselves, but by the original owner, and there is really no need to worry about those things.
"Xincheng, don't eat yet, go out with me to find Xianggong, and I'm a little worried about where he goes."
Hearing this, Mo Xincheng nodded, and left the tailor shop with Chen Youyi, and after a circle outside, the sky became darker, and Qin Ziheng was not found.
"Madam, maybe Brother Qin has already gone back, let's go back, it's not appropriate for us to look outside at such a late hour."
After listening to Mo Xincheng's persuasion, she nodded and then returned to the tailor shop, but when she got home, Qin Ziheng still didn't come back.
But if you want to go out to find it, you don't know where to go, and who knows where he went in such a big capital.
Qin Ziheng is different from himself, and he doesn't remember much about the things in the capital, but Qin Ziheng is very familiar with it, there should be no accident here, he has a lot of people here, maybe he is in a bad mood and just wants to go out and be quiet for a while.
Chen Youyi also comforted herself in her heart, but she still sat in the room and waited patiently, hoping to wait until Qin Ziheng came back, tell him what he thought in his heart, and tell him that he didn't care about the things he used to be, what he cared about was the relationship between the two people in front of him.
But after midnight, Qin Ziheng still didn't come back, Chen Youyi stood at the door and looked out, it was so dark that he couldn't see his five fingers, and he didn't know if something had happened to him outside.
Chen Youyi was pacing back and forth in the room, and at this time she heard a movement outside, she hurriedly walked out to look, and sure enough, she saw a black shadow stumbling towards this side.
didn't see clearly who that person was, Chen Youyi subconsciously asked, "Xianggong?" Is that you? β
