Xiaoyehanako was stunned when she heard this, and just wanted to escape, but Dean guessed what she was thinking and blocked the way.

"What are you following me for?" Dean looked at the panicked and silent little Hanako in front of him, and asked in a more soothing tone.

"I'm ......" Hanako opened her mouth with great difficulty, and after secretly glancing at Dian's face, she muttered again, "I, I want to ......"

"Are you interested in my identity?" Dean seemed to have guessed a thing or two.

Hanako nodded and shook her head again, "No, it's not." I'm just curious why you're asking about those four servants? ”

"Oh?" Dean smiled slightly, "Tell me why." ”

Xiao Hanako swallowed her saliva, raised her head and replied: "I have seen a lot of outsiders in the past few days, but I am still the first to inquire about the affairs of the officials." ”

"And there's more." Dean was clearly not satisfied with this explanation.

Xiao Hanako was slightly stunned, and after being entangled for a moment, she looked around vigilantly before lowering her voice and saying, "I heard that a great Qing official is coming here recently. Moreover, I inquired that the deaths of the four officials seemed to be related to the Lu family, the bully of Wukang. ”

"Oh?" As soon as he heard the words "Great Qing Official", Di'an's gaze couldn't help but change slightly. Although the two sentences are incompatible, he has already tasted the meaning, "What is your relationship with the Lu family?" ”

"A feud in the sea of blood." Xiao Hanako's eyes showed a terrifying killing intent, and although the words were short, the hatred in the words was chilling.

"I'm sorry, you're looking for the wrong person." Despite knowing that Hanako wasn't lying, Dean answered crisply. But as soon as he had said that, he regretted it, for he saw that the boy's eyes were like a pair of flames that were about to burn out, and it was too difficult to light them again.

"Still." Dean changed his words, "I do have some friendship with some officials, of course, if you believe me. ”

Sun San didn't answer immediately, but frowned and pondered, his gaze flickering like starlight, obviously hesitating.

Despite Xiao Xiaohua's defensiveness, Dean didn't care at all. He patted Xiao Zhaohua's shoulder, although his expression seemed very casual, but his tone was extremely serious: "I remember your things, forget those painful things, and live well." With that, he strode away without looking back.

"Wait!" However, as soon as he took a few steps, there was a small voice calling flowers behind him. He turned to look at Xiao Yuhua kneeling on the ground, and said with a little choked up, "If Engong can bring the bully to justice, my grandson San will repay your kindness even if he is a cow and a horse." ”

"Get up." Dean walked up to Sun San and stretched out his hand to help him up from the ground, "Can you tell me about your situation?" ”

Sun San nodded, and after calming down a little, he replied through gritted teeth: "Five years ago, those bullies of the Lu family wanted to forcibly buy my family's ancestral home, but my father was unwilling, so he rejected them. I thought that this matter would be over, but unexpectedly, a group of wicked people broke into my house that night. If my mother hadn't risked her life to protect me, I'm afraid I'd ......," he said, and couldn't help but sob.

Dean patted Sun San's thin shoulder with a heavy face and asked, "Didn't you report this matter to the official?" ”

"Humph!" Sun San wiped the tears from his face with his arm, and scolded angrily, "It's all all the way, what's the hope." As he spoke, his tone suddenly changed, "However, Tang Mingfu is a good official, and he has done a lot of good things in the past year, but it's a pity...... Alas! ”

"Oh?" Di'an's eyes flashed slightly, and he asked thoughtfully, "Didn't you say that he is also a minion of the Lu family?" ”

"I don't know." Sun San shook his head, reminiscing, and said, "However, it seems that he really has never had a conflict with the Lu family. ”

"Interesting." Dean came out of nowhere, and then seemed to think of something, his eyes were certain, he patted the back of his head and said, "Look at my head, I actually patronized your business, and almost forgot about it." You are a local, do you know where Tang County Ling lives? ”

"Yes, I'll take you." Sun San nodded and replied succinctly.

……

After a while, the two came to the outside of a house.

"What are you doing when you're closed in broad daylight?" Sun San muttered secretly, and after gently buttoning the door knocker, he heard a sound from the door, and a young slave walked out of the door.

"Two ......" The little slave glanced at the two of them, and then bowed to Dean and said, "I don't know what Lang Jun is visiting?" ”

"I am a classmate and old friend of Tang Ming Mansion, I was shocked to hear the bad news, and I am here to offer my condolences, please pass through." Dean replied, and said with a sad expression as he presented his name thorn.

The little slave took the famous thorn with both hands, looked at Dean for a while, and then said, "Lang Jun wait." ”

After a while, the little slave ran out with his body bowed, and bowed his hand again and said: "The lady is not in good health, and the little slave is specially ordered to lead Lang Jun to the mourning hall to pay respects." If something is inappropriate, I hope Lang Jun Haihan. ”

"It doesn't matter." Dean glanced at Sun San, motioned for him to wait outside, and then stepped into the door with the little slave. As soon as I entered the door, there was a lot of noise in the courtyard. Dean followed the sound and saw that it was a group of carpenters repairing the house.

Seeing the puzzled expression on Dian's face, the little slave immediately explained: "Let Lang Jun smile, it is also helpless to build a large construction project during the mourning period. On the night when my family Lang Jun suffered misfortune, Lang Jun's study was actually out of the water, fortunately it was found in time, otherwise it would ......" The little slave sighed and stopped talking.

"Oh, that's right." Dean nodded, and after glancing at the busy craftsmen, he ignored them completely.

A moment later, the two of them came to the outside of the mourning hall. As soon as I stepped into the mourning hall, a pungent smell of paper candles came to my nose. Dean quickly glanced at the mourning hall, where several old monks were knocking on the wooden fish, closing their eyes and chanting. On the other side of the lobby, an old man with a withered face was adding paper money to the brazier with a wooden expression, and at the same time choked lowly, looking at his appearance as if he was only breathing, it really made people worry that his life was like the green smoke rising from the curling breeze.

"That's Uncle Black." Seeing Dean staring at the old man, the little slave on the side lowered his voice and introduced, "He is the most trusted slave in front of Ah Lang, Ah Lang is gone, and he has also become demented because of excessive sadness." ”

"Oh." Dean nodded, noncommittal, and then looked away.

After some worship, Dean walked out of the mourning hall. was about to say goodbye and leave, but his eyes caught a glimpse of a person coming towards him. His face, which had always been as steady as Mount Tai, suddenly changed, as if he had been hit in the head by thunder, and he was stunned in place.

The footsteps of the comer were getting closer and closer, and Dean gradually relieved himself from his astonishment. As soon as his eyelids jumped, a tasteful voice came from his ears: "Yo, really, it's a coincidence." ”

Although the words were short, Dean couldn't help but feel his heart beat after hearing them. He pulled out a smile that was more ugly than crying, and looked at the woman in sackcloth in front of him and said, "Yes, yes." As he spoke, he suddenly arched his hand to the little slave, and after saying "farewell", he raised his footsteps and was about to leave quickly.

"Stop." Although the woman's voice was soft, the meaning contained in her words made Dean stunned. Perhaps sensing the little slave's puzzled eyes, the woman added: "Since Di Gongzi is here to pay tribute to his uncle, how can the master not give it away?" ”

Seeing that the woman bit the word "gift" very hard, Dian's eyelids jumped again. I just wanted to excuse myself, but I saw that the girl was ready to ask for help, and she was staring at herself meaningfully.

Knowing that there was no escape, Dean calmed down. He arched his hand at the woman, and said with a calm smile: "Then there is Miss Laotang." After saying that, he took the lead in taking a step.

It's strange to say that the two people who should have been tense turned out to be safe all the way. The two were silent all the time, and although the atmosphere was a little cold, it was in line with the etiquette of the host and guest.

"There is a funeral at home, so I will not send it far away." As soon as she walked to the door, the woman blessed Dean slightly, and said apologetically. If he hadn't seen a woman before, Dean would have almost mistakenly thought that she was a well-informed lady.

Isn't this girl overly sad and temperamental?!

Seeing that the woman was kind to each other, Dean had no choice but to return the salute while secretly speculating.

"Engong is a classmate of Tang Mingfu?" As soon as the woman left, Sun San, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately greeted her.

Dean nodded without changing his face, and asked rhetorically, "Something?" ”

"I see." Sun San seemed to have thought of something, nodded his head, and said in a low voice, "I think that Engong must have a lot to do with Tang Ming Mansion, I'm afraid this time coming to Wukang is not just as simple as paying tribute, right?" ”

"You seem to know something?" Dean did not directly answer Sun San's question, but diverted the topic and asked. Although he still had a lazy smile on his face, it made Sun San's heart tense, Sun San knew that under the gaze of this kind of gaze, it was best not to make stupid tricks.
