The man in black was well prepared, and had already prepared a carriage in advance in the town.

"I'm working with your father, just call me Uncle Zhang!"

The man didn't look at Xi He, and said a word to Qiao Xuan with a cold attitude before riding the horse.

The coachman beckoned Qiao Xuan to get into the car with Xi He.

On the carriage, Xi He spoke, "Xiao Xuan, are you sure that the person who wrote to you is Qiao Bo?" How do you feel that this Uncle Zhang is weird. ”

"Do you need to tempt him?"

Qiao Xuan shook his head and said softly: "No, I have seen Uncle Zhang's face, he is a reliable person, maybe he has a cold temperament!" The letter was indeed written by my father, saying that he had suddenly contracted a serious illness and hoped to see me for the last time. ”

Xi He didn't say much when he heard this, he believed Qiao Xuan's words.

The carriage went all the way out of Gupo County, and it had been on the road from day to night, passing through several counties, Qiao Xuan and Xi He had back pain, but Uncle Zhang, who was leading the way in front of him, did not shout to stop, and they could only continue to follow.

Finally, when night fell and the moon climbed high above the treetops, Uncle Zhang dismounted.

"Rest!" After he dropped a word, his figure disappeared into the mountains and forests in the wilderness.

Qiao Xuan and Xi He glanced at each other, jumped out of the carriage with the coachman, and the coachman began to collect firewood to burn the fire in a hurry, and Xi He and Qiao Xuan helped on the side.

"Dare to ask the little brother if you know where we are going?"

Qiao Xuan tentatively asked the driver who was driving the car.

Under the firelight, the coachman's face was slightly yellow, and he smiled innocently, "Jincheng." ”

A look of astonishment appeared on Qiao Xuan's face, Jincheng is not close to here, I am afraid that I will not be able to arrive tomorrow.

At this moment, Uncle Zhang came over with the killed prey and threw it to the coachman, "Roast it!" ”

Three rabbits and two pheasants were strung together and set on the fire.

Uncle Zhang barely said anything, and occupied one side alone, sitting coldly and indifferently without any intention of talking to Qiao Xuan.

After spending the night in the woods, the next day before dawn, the group set out.

In this way, after three days of rushing in succession, they finally appeared in Jincheng.

Jincheng is very big, the streets are full of people, Uncle Zhang led the horse through the crowd, Qiao Xuan and Xi He followed, and the carriage was sent away before it entered the city.

"Keep up!"

Uncle Zhang glanced back at Qiao Xuan and Xi He from time to time, as if he was afraid that they would be separated.

In front of an extremely luxurious house, Uncle Zhang finally stopped, turned around and explained to Qiao Xuan and Xi He, "After entering, just say that it is Qiao Yuan's relatives, don't say what you shouldn't say, don't look at what you shouldn't see." ”

Jia Fu? Qiao Xuan looked at the house in front of him, guessing in his heart why Qiao Yuan was here.

Xi He's face was as usual, and there was no envy in his eyes.

"Steward Zhang is back!" The subordinate at the door greeted Uncle Zhang with a smile, and looked at Qiao Xuan and Xi He out of the corner of his eye.

"Hmm!"

After answering the question, Uncle Zhang threw the horse's leash to him, and took Qiao Xuan and Xi He into the mansion.

The corridor is connected to the corridor, and Uncle Zhang seems to have chosen a secluded road, but he didn't encounter anyone along the way.

Passing through the back garden of the rockery, I turned around and arrived at a side courtyard.

"Your father is inside, go in by yourselves! If you have nothing to do, don't go out and stay in the yard. ”

Uncle Zhang explained a sentence and strode away.

Qiao Xuan walked into the courtyard with Xi He.

"Ahem~" A cough was heard in a room, and then the door of the room was opened with a "creak".

The skinny Qiao Yuan appeared at the door, and after he saw Qiao Xuan and Xi He, he was stunned for a moment, then his lips trembled, and he called out softly: "Xuan'er, that kid from the Xi family?" ”

Qiao Xuan shouted "Dad" unnaturally.

"Uncle Qiao", Xi He greeted respectfully and politely.

The three of them returned to the room and sat down, Qiao Yuan looked at Qiao Xuan lovingly, and was very relieved to see that Qiao Xuan looked very good.

After leaving for so long, what he was most worried about was his timid daughter, and he knew very well that if he hadn't been able to go back, he wouldn't have been able to leave Qiao Xuan alone.

"Did the people in the village bully you? How are you doing? ”

Qiao Xuan lowered his eyes, and he couldn't bear to tell Qiao Yuan the truth, his daughter had already been killed.

After hesitating for a moment, she looked up at Xi He, who was very interested, "You talk first, I'll go out to breathe." ”

"They're bullying you? Isn't it? Qiao Yuan's face turned a little pale, and his hand holding the teacup was trembling.

Qiao Xuan pursed his lips, "She's dead!" ”

"Smack!" With a bang, the teacup slammed on the ground, and the tea soaked the ground and splashed the hem of the two people's clothes.

"What did you say?" Qiao Yuan stared at Qiao Xuan in disbelief, wanting to see traces of joking on Qiao Xuan's face, but he was disappointed, and Qiao Xuan looked sincere.

"I said she's dead!" Qiao Xuan repeated what he had just said, "A few people in the village beat the prey and told her to distribute the prey, because the distribution was unfair, she died under the fists and feet of those people." ”

Qiao Yuan's breathing instantly became rapid, "Brute! When I get back to the village, I'm going to make them pay. ”

In fact, from the moment Qiao Xuan spoke to him, he felt that Qiao Xuan was weird, not like his daughter, he didn't think much about it, and when he heard Qiao Xuan say this, he believed it without doubt.

Because the daughter who was brought up with one hand is the person he is most familiar with, he can catch subtle changes.

Qiao Xuan: "I have avenged her revenge for him." ”

None of the people in the village had a good end, and this was the only thing she could do for the original owner.

Qiao Yuan buried his head on the table, and a big man actually whimpered and cried.

Qiao Xuan let out a long sigh.

"It's all my fault! It's all my fault! I should have taken her away in the first place," he muttered to himself.

Jincheng is close to the Dayuan River, in recent years, the river has risen and flooded many people by the river, causing a lot of losses, the Holy Majesty ordered to deal with the flood within two years, the city lord recruited people to control the water, and invited himself to come over to help again and again, he left his daughter at home, but unexpectedly......

Qiao Xuan silently stayed next to Qiao Yuan, waiting for Qiao Yuan's mood to slowly stabilize.

"Then you are-" He looked at Qiao Xuan with a complicated expression, as if he was looking at Qiao Xuan and seemed to be looking at his daughter through Qiao Xuan.

"You'll treat me as a ghost! Chanced, reborn in your daughter. ”

Qiao Xuan didn't want to tell Qiao Yuan about her origins, "Since I borrowed your daughter's body, I will definitely treat you as sincerely as your daughter in the future." ”

Qiao Yuan nodded slightly, and there was sadness in the depths of his eyes.

"I've been running all the way, I've worked the way here, let's go to the next room and have a good rest! After a while, we eat. ”

Qiao Xuan knew that he wanted to be calm and calm alone, so he got up and opened the door and walked out, leaving the space for him.
