Ding Mingqi disappeared when Ding Ai was four years old, and she couldn't remember her father's face for a long time. I just remember that it was a cold man who never hugged her.

And there is only one photo of Ding Mingqi at home, which seems to have been carefully cut out of somewhere, and is sandwiched in a book on Hu Lan's bedside table.

When Ding Ai was a child, he would often take out that photo to see what the livestock that abandoned his wife and daughter and left the rivers and lakes looked like.

But as she got older, she opened the book less and less.

But no matter how little she can see, she can't be wrong about that face.

If the person in this photo is really Ding Mingqi -

Her throat tightened a little: "Fourth uncle, during the Republic of China, it was nearly a hundred years ago. “

Ding Mingqi has lived for almost a hundred years, but his face has not changed at all?

The four elders pondered for a moment, and their expressions were a little embarrassed. After a while, he pondered: "My subordinates don't know." ”

"After all, the world is so big, and there are so many people who are similar. The subordinates and others privately discussed whether to show the photo to your mother, after all, the stakes are high-"

"Impossible!" Ding Ai vetoed sharply, as if he thought of something, and his eyes were filled with some blood, "No one is allowed to mention this name in front of her." ”

The old man froze, and seemed to feel something, and a little forbearance appeared in his eyes.

There was a moment of silence in the room.

“…… Subordinate gaffes. ”

“……”

Ding Ai spit out the turbidity in his chest: "After I go back, I will send a photo of Ding Mingqi to Junzi, and you can find someone to do a facial comparison." ”

"My subordinates understand."

"How is the Zhao family?"

"I found someone in the mouth to investigate. The Zhao family is doing Tougu on the surface, but they are restless behind the scenes. ”

"Likou" refers to this piece of land, that is, Zhuhai; "Tougu" refers to the business of selling horses.

Ding Ai was angry when he heard it: "The national policy is so generous to the tourism industry now, and they still have to get involved in the Tougu business, and the appearance is too ugly." ”

Everyone in the rivers and lakes has a tacit secret, that is, in the past, those who did "head valley" business along the coast or in the mountains always had nothing to do with "holding stones".

Because the terrain in these areas is not suitable for grazing, but either the transportation is developed or it is conducive to hiding people's eyes. Moreover, the young horses are living creatures, and they are as big as children in sacks.

At present, "holding stones" is a criminal and criminal activity that is severely cracked down, and being caught by the special police superintendent can be sentenced to prison. He was desolate and ancient, and in the spirit of "Longxi Zhao's family", he shouldn't have taken a fancy to this business. Unless......

Ding Ai chuckled with mockery, "The Zhao family was pinched? ”

The fourth elder sighed: "Zhao Yu, the current son of the Zhao family, is a sick man. Among the four major families, the Zhao family does not rely on the front and back. Now it is the public world of the Communist Party, and the former practice of 'eating imperial grain' has long been out of the way. Even if no one is in charge, the dirty work that the Zhao family has done in private over the years, you must have heard of it......

Ding Ai: "When it's late, arrange a sentry trip." ”

The fourth elder frowned: "You want to go in person?" ”

Ding Ai smiled: "Isn't it you," she chuckled: "You don't need to do it brothers, you ask someone to send a letter to the person of the special police superintendent." ”

The crescent-like eyes narrowed slightly, but the backlit figure leaked some cold killing intent.

The four elders were busy responding.

If you want to come to Kuman-14 Road with a little more seniority, who doesn't know that the business of holding stones is the reverse scale of the big shopkeeper.

Sure enough, I saw that the smile on the corner of Ding Ai's mouth already had a hint of mockery: "Let people look at Zhao Yu to death." ”

"Look at the death, I'll meet in person."

But those who practice martial arts pay attention to the momentum before the action.

It can give people a sense of oppression, and Peng Bai is like a huge wave covering in an instant, which is already the ultimate cultivation. But even so, it can't compare to the deterrent power of the girl in front of him like a needle in a mustard seed.

The four elders of Xiu Weiru were all cold, and they were shocked by the coercion that Ding Ai leaked in an instant.

After making up his mind, the old man looked at Ding Ai's expression, and his heart was shocked again.

He endured it, but still asked, "Big shopkeeper, how are you doing lately?" ”

Ding Ai was slightly stunned, the face that was hidden in the shadow was angry, and he showed a little carelessness when he heard the words.

"Okay."

She said softly: "I have been doing nothing and fooling around lately, and I should be able to live longer than expected." ”

The fourth elder frowned: "Don't say stupid things. Junko is already looking for someone to do research, and believes-"

"Come on," Ding Ai interrupted him, reached out and patted the old man on the shoulder, and smiled: "Relax." I'm a young man who can think about it by himself, and I don't need to be comforted by you. ”

“……”

Ding Ai waved his hand: "That's it, I'll go out and have a look." That Zhao Er is a heartless eye, but don't miss it in front of Third Brother Jian. ”

Seeing the slender back slowly walking away, the four elders' blazing eyes showed a complex melancholy......

Although the Zhao family has gone downhill, Zhao Er, who has separated from the Zhao family, is living a prosperous life, and the careful arrangement of this step and scene in the courtyard alone shows the exquisiteness of the owner of the courtyard.

Ding Ai didn't expect her to casually say "Grandpa Cousin" for her 60th birthday, and Zhao Er really got a birthday banquet on the way.

The birthday banquet was decent, and the gongs and drums were not lively.

Poor Ding Ai was so noisy that she had a headache, and she carried a bottle of sour plum soup at the banquet in the evening, and left the banquet halfway.

There is no one in the courtyard, and there is a thick mulberry tree in the courtyard, with lush branches and leaves, standing quietly in the moonlight.

Ding Ai looked at the bright moon in the night, and inexplicably thought of Jian Tianqi's face.

By the time everyone found out that Ding Ai was gone, it was already the second half.

Zhao Er was originally a person who liked to be lively. However, because it was inconvenient to expose the identities of Ding Ai and the four elders, he was so aggrieved that none of his friends and relatives were invited.

But this Zhao Er is also a wonderful person, and he can make himself unconscious. It's just that the amount of alcohol he drinks is not good, and the wine is even more worrying after getting drunk.

For example, now he is holding Li Wei's thigh and not letting go, and he is shouting "good touch" in his mouth.

Li Wei reached out in embarrassment, but the result was that the kraft candy was like kraft candy, and he couldn't buckle it. In the end, he really didn't have a way, so he stunned the other party with a palm of the back groove meat.

When everyone hurriedly settled the pit goods, they found that Ding Ai had disappeared at some point.

Li Wei scratched his head and smiled bitterly: "Also, she has always been most afraid of two things: 'too many people' and 'trouble'." Today, I got both. ”

"And I don't think she's in a good mood this afternoon, so let her stay alone."

Li Wei sat down as he spoke, but his outstretched hand suddenly paused.

"Four—Grandpa, where is the plum wine I brought on the table?"

The old man frowned: "What wine?" ”

The two looked at each other.

Jian Tianqi, who had been sitting on the side and was silent all night, finally spoke at the right time: "She took it away when she left." ”

"Who?" This time it was a one-on-one question.

Li Wei suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.

Jian Tianqi didn't answer, just looked at each other quietly with dark eyes.

Li Wei read the answer from his calm face.

He screamed in his heart and hurriedly said, "Grandpa cousin, Xiao Ai took away the wine!" ”

"Let's look around."

When the old man heard this, even though his expression was extremely calm, the appearance of standing up suddenly still revealed his nervousness.

Seeing that Jian Tianqi was about to get up, Li Wei hurriedly stepped forward to hold down his shoulder, and said with a smile: "It's not big here, Xiao Ai must have gone somewhere, let's just go to find it." Third Brother Jian, you are a guest, how can you be embarrassed to cause you trouble. ”

The silent man didn't speak, just raised his eyelids to look at him, and the sharpness exuded from his body made Li Wei's hand on his shoulder cramp a little, and the pain and numbness that had been caused at the airport in the morning seemed to be faintly gone.

"Hey—"

In the next second, the man with long hands and feet had already stood up on his own

Jian Tianqi lowered his eyes, looked at the other party condescendingly, and said lightly, his tone was not distinguishing between joy and anger: "She is my insider." ”

"I'm the one who caused you trouble."

"Hey—" Li Wei stretched out his hand, but he couldn't stop the man's back from leaving in the night.

When he came back to his senses, he laughed.

It's a real problem.
