"Excuse me, can the rest of the family live here?" The visitor asked.

Xi Zixiao got up slowly, looking at the middle-aged man in a royal blue shirt at the 'door' of the courtyard, 'Hua' Jiu saw that his jaw line was cold and hard instantly, in fact, she didn't expect that Xi Laosan would find the 'door' in person so quickly.

"Haha, Xi Qi, you are Xi Qi?" The man stepped in a few steps and walked in front of Xi Zixiao, with a look of ecstasy on his face, as if he wanted to reach out and pat him on the shoulder, but when he touched the condensed sight, he lowered his hand again, "You don't recognize me?" ”

"Who are you?" Xi Zixiao asked, his face was still expressionless, and he couldn't tell that he was pretending at all.

For the first time, 'Hua' Jiu found that this person was expressionless, and no matter what the circumstances, he would not 'revue' anything, which was simply a bluff.

"That's right, I'm 'very' big change now, I'm Xi Yang, your third uncle." Xi Yang said, 'touching' and 'touching' his face, but when he looked up, he found Xi Zixiao's eyes that didn't believe it at all, "I'm really Xi Yang, Xi Laosan." ”

"My third uncle, I don't want you to be like this," Xi Zixiao sat down again, not planning to pay attention to him, and turned to 'Hua' Jiu and said softly, "I'll carry you back to the room." ”

"I remember, when you were a child, you were almost drowned by the bunches in Xifu, or Huayue saved you, and your enlightenment 'Meng' literacy was also taught by Huayue, and I also bought you a bamboo cricket, you are not rare, you will be stepped on in front of me, and you often call me a dead fat pig...... "Xi Yang was in a hurry, and he said some things in his memory.

Xi Zixiao bent down to hug the 'flower' nine for a moment, straightened up, looked at Xi Yang for a long time, and then said, "Third uncle? ”

"Hey-" Xi Yang responded happily, his eyes were small and round, like pomegranate seeds, but they were not clear inside, there were too many things hidden, and the darkness breeds 'yin' darkness, he turned his head and seemed to see the 'flower' that had been sitting on the side, "This is?" Are you a daughter-in-law? ”

Xi Zixiao nodded, and didn't introduce him, signaling the autumn harvest on the side to help 'Hua' Jiu into the house to rest, and then led Xi Yang to the study, and said, "Third uncle, the change is really big, why did you lose weight?" ”

Xi Yang didn't look like a middle-aged man in his early forties at all, he and Xi Zixiao walked side by side, hearing this, he jumped twice, rolled up his sleeves, and let Xi Zixiao look at his arm, "Look, it's slimmed down, lest you call me a fat pig in the future, but, more than ten years ago, I was indeed too fat, and my eyes were too fat to see, right?" Is it seen from afar, it is a pile of 'meat' that moves? ”

Xi Zixiao tugged at the corners of his mouth, and replied directly, "Yes, before and now, two people." ”

The two sat down in the study, and Dongzang cleverly made tea, and after putting down the teapot quickly, he retreated.

"Third uncle, why are you only coming back now? Grandfather...... went. Xi Zixiao held the teacup, his eyelids were half-closed, and he seemed to be only concentrating on the smoke coming out of the teacup, and he asked after a while.

Xi Yang was silent, and there was light and shadow on his face, and the face that was actually the same as Xi Lao Wuchang set off a trace of sadness, "It's that I'm not filial, young and absurd, and I came back in middle age, I wanted my father to see my current scenery, why is he gone." ”

Xu was too sad, Xi Yang couldn't bear it anymore in front of Xi Zixiao, covering his face with one hand, and there was wetness passing through his fingers, and he couldn't help himself.

Xi Zixiao never comforted people, he took a sip of tea in silence, and then swept away Xi Yang.

"Let my nephew smile, I just miss my father too much......" For a long time, Xi Yang wiped his face, the tip of his nose and eye sockets were red, but he laughed again, Xiaoyuan's eyes were squinted and couldn't see clearly, "I heard that my nephew's incense building was in trouble, so I went to buy my nephew's incense, and I don't know if it was abrupt?" ”

"No," Xi Zixiao put down the teacup that he had drunk to the bottom, thought for a while and added, "She's very happy." ”

It should be happy, after all, there is money to be made.

"That's good, that's good," Xi Yang seemed relieved.

The two uncles and nephews talked to each other in the study for a long time, and 'Hua' Jiu read idle books for a long time in the room, but she didn't read much at all, and seeing that Dongzang seemed to be going to serve tea in a while, she said, "Help me too." ”

With the support of the autumn harvest, she walked through the verandah, and saw Xi Zixiao and Xi Yang walking out of the study, Xi Yang smiled very happily and patted Xi Zixiao's shoulder, and turned his head to see 'Hua' Jiu standing at the other end of the verandah, he nodded to 'Hua' Jiu very politely, and then left first.

Xi Zixiao took a few steps in front of 'Hua' Jiu, glanced at 'Hua' Jiu's ankle with a bad face, and picked her up without saying a word and walked back.

"What did you say?" 'Hua' Jiu climbed his neck and asked.

What do you think, Xi Zixiao shook his head, his eyes were a little deeper, "Xi Laosan came back, the purpose was not pure, he only said that it was to see his grandfather, I suspect that the two beggars yesterday were his temptation." ”

When he arrived at the room, Xi Zixiao put 'Hua' Jiu on the edge of the 'bed' and sat down, 'Hua' Jiu lowered his eyes and looked at his fingernails, and said after a while, "If those two beggars are his temptation, then what does he want to find out from you?" See what you're up to? ”

Xi Zixiao took off her embroidered shoes for 'Hua' Jiu, and gently moved her 'legs' to the 'bed' to put them away, before carefully considering what 'Hua' Jiu said, "It's very likely, but now, I don't know which side he is." ”

"Either way, it's not in the same boat." 'Hua' Jiu leaned the cushion behind his back and snapped.

Xi Zixiao also went to the 'bed' to lie down, "Yes, Xi Laosan said, in the future, I will give you a dark fragrance building, inject silver, and help you." ”

Hearing this, 'Hua' Jiu smiled, "Then help, I don't have too much silver." ”

"I think so too." Xi Zixiao added, and the two of them tacitly agreed.

What Xi Yang said really counted, only the second day, Shang Li sent someone over and said that there was a person who claimed to be Xi Sanye unconditionally put a large amount of silver into the dark incense building, and he asked 'Hua' Jiu, should this silver be collected.

'Flower' nine only said a word, and there is no need to write an IOU of silver, don't be in vain.

In these sluggish days, there is some vitality in the dark incense building, and there are more types of incense, and the guests are better than before.

'Hua' Jiu still doesn't care much, Xi Yang's trick is just a temporary relief of the dilemma of Dark Xianglou, and what she wants is not this at all.

At this time, Xi Zixiao came back and said that the people in Xifu didn't know that Xi Laosan was back, and they could be sure that Xi Yang would find the two of them directly as soon as he returned to Zhaozhou.

Let's not talk about what's weird in this, at least at the moment, Xi Yang has not made any other moves, and he has shown favor in every possible way, Xi Zixiao naturally brakes quietly, it depends on what he wants to do.

When 'Hua' Jiu's ankles were almost good and swollen, she could finally walk to the yard to bask in the sun by herself, and she didn't have to go wherever Zixiao went, she actually had a faint feeling of freedom to see the light of day again.

But this good mood was once again ruined by Shang Yanran, who broke into the house.

'Hua' Jiu's eyes narrowed unkindly, why did this brainless 'female' come again? Or did Xi Zixiao not handle it at all?

No matter what 'Hua' Jiu thought, Shang Yanran rushed to 'Hua' Jiu, 'touched' a silver ticket from his arms, and threw it towards 'Hua' Jiu, "Is it enough?" ”

"You ......" 'Chun' Sheng has been holding 'Hua' Jiu, and seeing that her wife was humiliated like this, she immediately went to find a broom to bomb people out.

Who knows, 'Hua' Jiu stretched out her hand to stop the 'Chun' Sheng, she twisted up a silver ticket on her shoulder, and glanced at it lightly, "One hundred taels, not to mention that Miss Shang also threw a thousand taels just now, 'Chun' Sheng, pick it up." ”

Seeing that 'Hua' Jiu instructed the maid 'girl' to pick up the silver ticket, Shang Yanran's beautiful 'glamorous' face 'revealed' a sneering smile, "You haven't seen so much silver, have you?" Get out of him, it's all your ......," she said, pulling another stack out of her sleeve.

'Chun' Sheng sorted out the silver ticket, 'Hua' Jiu took it, rubbed it, raised his eyes and looked at this Shang Yanran with a smile, "Oh? Then the merchant girl should continue to smash it, my 'flower' clan can have a day when it is smashed by silver, and it feels good. ”

Sure enough, Shang Yanran raised her hand and sprinkled it, and the silver tickets were flying all over the courtyard, and 'Hua' Jiu picked up one and looked at it again, "What?" This will be fifty-two-one? The merchant girl still changed to a hundred taels and came again, 'spring' birth, and drove people! ”

'Chun' Sheng waited for 'Hua' Jiu's words, and immediately she picked up the broom on the side, and maliciously ran to dip it in dirty water, and was about to hit Shang Yanran when she lifted it, "Get out, I told you to smash Mrs. with a silver ticket......"

"Ah......" Shang Yanran didn't notice for a while, her gorgeous clothes were swept with dirty water by a broom, she screamed, her face was blue, and she fell away in embarrassment.

Coming and going, but only a quarter of an hour.

After the deed, 'Chun' Sheng put away the broom and was about to pick up the silver tickets that filled the courtyard-

"Don't pick it up!" The sound was like the sound of ice beads, as if it had fallen to the ground and burst out of the chill of cutting, 'Hua' Jiu let go, and the silver tickets in his hand fell to the ground, "Help me back to the room." ”

With a beating in her heart, 'Chun' Sheng knew that 'Hua' Jiu was really angry, and she rarely saw 'Hua' Jiu so angry that she was just cold and speechless.

That night, 'Hua' Jiu dropped the 'door' of the room early and bolted it, and didn't wait for Xi Zixiao to come back, let alone have dinner with him.

At the beginning of the unitary period, before Xi Zixiao stepped into the courtyard, he saw 'Chun' Sheng looking at the 'gate' of the courtyard for a long time.

Seeing him come back, 'Chun' Sheng walked a few steps to him and told him everything about the day, and when it was over, he said that his wife was panicked.

After Xi Zixiao listened, he didn't speak, although the sky was dark, he could still see the silver tickets scattered all over the courtyard, he only paused for a moment, turned around and went out again.

'Spring' students are almost dumbfounded, what does it mean to say nothing? Or are you angry with 'Hua' Nine?

After about two quarters of an hour, soon 'Chun' Sheng saw Xi Zixiao coming back again, followed by a short and fat businessman, and the businessman was followed by Shang Yanran.

Immediately afterwards, Xi Zixiao only led the two people to the courtyard, and glanced coldly at the short and fat businessman, who drank Shang Yanran with an ugly face, "Come here, pick them up one by one for me, and go to make amends to the seventh young lady." ”

Shang Yanran was reluctant, and seemed to be quite scared of the person, so she had to bend down in the courtyard to pick up the silver ticket, but unexpectedly, before she had her hand next to the silver ticket, Xi Zixiao took a step forward and stepped on the silver ticket stubbornly, "Pick it up with your mouth!" ”
