Xiao Si and Xiao Qi were both sent out by Zhou Duchan, and they haven't come back yet, so I don't know how the investigation went.

"Young master, Xiao Si and Xiao Qi are back and are waiting for you in the study."

"Just ......."

Zhou Duchan strode towards the study.

In the study, Xiao Si and Xiao Qi, who have always been white, are tanned, and they are several degrees darker.

Both of their lips were cracked, and they were pouring the kettle in their hands.

"Ah, finally alive, I'm dying of thirst."

Zhou Duchan sat at the desk, his fingers lightly tapped on the tabletop, and his eyes looked at the two of them, "Okay?" Which of you two will talk about it first? ”

Xiao Qi hurriedly said, "I, my young master, I'll say it first." ”

"Okay, Xiaoqi let's talk first, have you inquired?"

"Young master, you don't know, I've worked hard, don't you know that this peach blossom has really been flooded, and more than half of the people in the town and village have been lost, the previous houses and streets have all changed, I visited many people's homes, and only then did I find a person who knows ......."

Zhou Duchan resisted the urge to roll his eyes, "I don't want to hear the process to the point." ”

"Oh, young master, the point is that I found a family that Xiaoman's mother and brother once rented their house, according to him, his brother seems to be studying at the Qingsong Academy in the town of Peach Blossom Town, and later before the flood, they seemed to follow the dean of the Easy Academy to the capital, I heard that the dean recommended him to study in Taixue in the capital."

"It means that they are in the capital now."

Zhou Duchan pondered for a while, as if he had made up his mind, and then looked at Xiao Si, "Young master, I led people to chase him in the direction of escape for a long time, but I couldn't catch him, but I found out his details, he is not from our Great Xia Kingdom at all, but he joined an organization called Plum Blossom Brand in the Great Xia Kingdom, this organization specializes in accepting some people who are wanted by various countries, specializing in some robberies and robberies, kidnapping and trafficking in human beings, it is said that they have committed crimes in various places, and the local government has also sent people to investigate and arrest, But none of them succeeded, and they would disappear without a trace after completing the case, and their organization's nest would not be known. ”

After listening to the report of the two, Zhou Duchan waved his hand and said, "You two go down and rest." ”

In the kitchen, Xiao Man was teaching Zhou Anhui to make rock sugar pears, but Zhou Anhui was not talented in cooking, Xiao Man patiently called over and over again and finally Xiao Man gave up helplessly, and even said: "Anhui, your hands have just grown, let you peel a pear, you see that your pear is only a pear beard." ”

"Oh, Xiaoman, you can't ask me to be like you, why am I not so good at anything, I can teach me, you have to be a little patient."

"Hey, I'm defeated by you, forget it, the pears here in Fangzheng must not be pesticides, it doesn't matter if you don't peel them, you don't have to peel them, just stew them."

The two of them tossed in the kitchen for a long time, stewing a few rock sugar pears that were not very successful, but Xiaoman made anti-wolf weapons for Zhou Anhui, chili noodles, garbage water, and taught Zhou Anhui how to use them, and also taught Zhou Anhui the skills of anti-riot packaging, such as flirting with yin feet and buttoning eyeballs, these strange tricks aroused Zhou Anhui's great interest.

Now Zhou Anhui's eyes on Xiaoman are not just admiration, she has simply become Xiaoman's little fan sister, and Zhou Anhui is often seen following Xiaoman in the Zhou family, "Xiaoman, Xiaoman's call is not listening." ”

Day after day, Xiaoman's Shang has basically fully recovered, Xiaoman feels that it is not a matter for him to live here, and she wants to go back to see Liang's mother, since entering the Zhou Mansion Xiaoman feels as if he is isolated from the outside world, and Juxian Building, Zhou Zhiyuan has not seen himself anymore, the most important thing is that Xiaoman feels that he is hungry and eats like this every day, and he is a little sleepy and sleepy.

In the past few days, Zhou Duchan has rarely stayed in the house, even Dabai seems to be very busy, only he is idle and panicked, today Xiaoman got up early in the morning, and finally blocked Zhou Duchan at the gate.

The dew in the early morning was very big, Xiao Man stood under the eaves, pacing back and forth, it was quite cool to get up early and knew to wear more clothes, a young man in white in the distance, slowly approached, it seemed that only this boy could be seen between heaven and earth, Xiao Man had to admit that Zhou Duchan was really good-looking, and everyone liked to look at good-looking people who were not really eye-catching, so he looked at it stupidly, until Zhou Duchan stood in front of Xiao Man.

"Are you waiting for me?"

Xiao Man came back to his senses and coughed a few times to hide his embarrassment, "My injuries are all healed, I think it's time for me to go home, I've been here long enough, there are still a lot of things at home, and I still have to make money, so I'm going to quit." ”

"Are you in such a hurry to leave?"

"Hey, I've lived here for more than half a month, and besides, this isn't my home, so there's no reason for me to stay here."

Zhou Duchan didn't understand why he felt a little lost in his heart when he heard Xiao Man say this, and there was a lot of reluctance, he was used to hearing Xiao Man and An Hui laughing and playing every day, this huge courtyard was finally no longer so quiet and terrible, and he always felt that Xiao Man would take away all the happiness when he left.

"Since you want to go so much, let's go, don't tell me." After saying this, he turned around and left.

Xiaoman felt a little inexplicable, was this angry? Does it mean to turn the other cheek?

Zhou Duchan walked out not far and couldn't help but turn back, Xiaoman greeted the morning glow, and his small figure glowed red, which made people feel warm.

The young man clenched his hands, why did he speak to Xiao Man like that just now, his clenched fists were released again, and he turned his head and walked out of the door.

Xiaoman left a letter to Zhou Anhui and told her in the letter that she would send her a scar-removing ointment in a few days.

I didn't see Da Bai when I left, forget it, it's better for Da Bai to stay here than to follow him, I heard that Xiao Si and Xiao Qi will also take care of Da Bai to bathe and feed it, and there are bones to eat, and it is good to eat meat once a month in half a month, maybe Da Bai will be used to following him.

Out of the gate of Zhou's house, Xiao Mantou did not return, there were very few people on the street, Xiao Man walked very fast at the beginning, but gradually Xiao Man felt that his legs were tight, and he began to become a little heavy, like his own skateboard, if the skateboard was in, he would not have to walk on only two legs.
