Chapter 267: Father-in-law
Yun Qiushui saw that the two of them were muttering something to each other, and hurriedly walked over to ask clearly, at this moment, there were two footsteps outside the door, one fast and one slow, accompanied by the voices of two people, an old and a young man, Jiang Xingze settled the fifth princess and walked down the stairs, and when he heard this familiar voice, his face immediately changed, he jumped down the stairs with an arrow step, and said in a low voice: "Everyone go to the house to rest first." ”
Xiao Qianye was the closest to the door, and after hearing the old man's voice, his face suddenly became serious, Jiang Xingze stepped forward and pushed him upstairs, and said seriously: "You guys also go back, leave it to me here." ”
"Landlord, the people outside should be ......" Xiao Qianye hesitated and didn't move, the old man's voice was already close at hand, he raised his hand and knocked on the door hard, and nagged loudly, "The noodle stalls on the street are all open for business, why is such a big restaurant still closed?"
As soon as the words fell, another young voice persuaded faintly: "Since you don't open the door, the marshal should go back." ”
Xiao Qianye's already frowning brows, hearing this voice was even more cold, this is his original subordinate, Zhengfan!
Baili Feng did not give up, seeing that there was no response to the knock on the door, he simply prepared to break in directly, Zheng Fan was frightened and hurriedly pressed the old man's hand, and said strangely: "There are still many stores open around here, if you can't eat, change one, you can't smash the door!"
"I'm going to eat here. Baili Feng shook off Zhengfan's hand and said with a smile, "This is a famous restaurant in the whole Feiyuan, haven't you seen it?" ”
"Pavilion Master Xiao, you go back to the house first. Jiang Xingze was in a cold sweat, this voice was obviously the marshal Baili Feng, although he had stepped down from Emperor Tianzun not long ago, but after all, the navy has a lot of affairs, and the old man has been temporarily staying in the navy headquarters to assist the vice admiral to hand over as soon as possible, originally I heard that he had gone to sea and had not come back, why did he suddenly come to Xiaoqin Tower at this time?
"A thousand nights. Although Tian Che didn't know who the people outside were, he could guess most of it from the landlord's nervous demeanor, he saw that Xiao Qianye was still standing at the door and refused to leave, so he went directly over and grabbed his sleeve and walked upstairs, and said, "Let's take a look at the situation first, don't be impulsive." ”
Xiao Qianye was helpless, Yun Xiao also hurriedly pulled Yun Qiushui and Feng Ji back to the house together, Jiang Xingze wiped the cold sweat on his head, took a few deep breaths, he didn't go to the door to open the door for Baili Feng, he had already broken in unceremoniously outside, Jiang Xingze immediately changed his smile to greet him, and asked, "Isn't this Marshal Baili, what wind blew you here?"
"You are ......" Baili Feng frowned slightly, feeling that the young man in front of him was a little familiar, but it was not the same as the master of Xiao Qinlou in his impression, Jiang Xingze bowed his hand to him and introduced himself, "In Xia Jiang Xingze, the lord of Xiao Qinlou was originally my brother, and now that he has returned to the imperial capital to do business, he will hand it over to me to take care of it, you look at my unsuccessful appearance, it has not been opened until now, and it has been lost to death in the past few months." ”

Baili Feng's eyes looked around, and found that there were still a few tea bowls on the table by the window, and at first glance, there were still people not long ago, Bai Li Feng snorted silently, but he didn't expose it directly, and reflexively waved at the young man outside, urging: "What are you doing standing outside, come in, such a big restaurant, are you still worried that you can't find anything to eat dinner?"
"Marshal, this shop is not cheap, you better eat it in another place. "The person outside is the original deputy general of the military pavilion Zheng Fan, he was forcibly transferred to the navy by Baili Feng, and during this time he was forced to run around with the old man, and finally went ashore and did not relieve the sequelae of seasickness, which would have been exhausted and sleepy, I wanted to rest as soon as possible, but I didn't expect to be dragged by him to the city to find a place to eat, Zheng Fan was originally a person with a cold personality and few words, or was affected by the marshal's too arrogant personality, and now he is more and more unpolite to speak.
Baili Feng blinked, the Navy Headquarters was stationed in North Shore City, how could he not know who the gold owner behind Xiao Qin Lou was, thinking of this, Bai Li Feng strode over and threw him to a stool, and he sat down unceremoniously and patted the table, turned his head and smiled, and said to Jiang Xingze: "If it doesn't open every day, no matter how thick the foundation is, it will be lost, isn't it? ”
"Uh...... This ......" Jiang Xingze smiled awkwardly, his brain turned quickly, he rushed upstairs and shouted Hua Xiaoshuang down, pointed to the back kitchen and ordered, "Go and see if there is anything delicious, serve it to the marshal first." ”
"Delicious?" Hua Xiaoshuang didn't know what the white-haired and white-bearded old man in front of her was about, and muttered, "It's not enough to eat, you serve it to the guests, so what do we eat?"
"Tsk! go!" Jiang Xingze was so angry that his face turned blue, and he twisted Hua Xiaoshuang's cheek angrily, Baili Feng looked at this little girl with a smile, beckoned to her, and said, "There is not even a guy in this restaurant, just how much can the two of you eat on a regular basis?"
Jiang Xingze knew that it was not good, Hua Xiaoshuang was an open-mouthed girl, where could she withstand Marshal Baili asking from the side, and sure enough, before he could make Hua Xiaoshuang look away, the little girl covered her mouth happily and laughed, enthusiastically approached Baili Feng, and said mysteriously: " The old man originally came for the name of Xiao Qinlou, it was really unfortunate, the meals during this time were made by the owner of Jiang Lou himself, he made it unpalatable, everyone said that it was not as good as the small noodle stall outside, if the old man really wanted to taste the taste of a chef, then come back in a few days. ”
"Everyone......" Baili Feng thought thoughtfully, stroking his beard and raising his eyes to sweep Jiang Xingze.
Zheng Fan didn't want to stay in this kind of place for a long time, but when he heard Hua Xiaoshuang's words, he immediately stood up, he directly grabbed Baili Feng's arm, and said angrily: "Marshal, let's go back to the noodle stall on the street to eat something." ”
Baili Feng stubbornly held him down, still smiling and said casually: "What are you anxious about, did the military pavilion master not let you enter this kind of place before? He is not here now, you don't pay attention to him." ”
Zheng Fan glared at him, his cheeks instantly flushed, but he was really poked by his words, the gold lord behind Xiao Qinlou is Gongsun Yan of the Imperial Capital Mirror Pavilion, and he often plays some rattle games that the black market likes, and there are not a few people who often play and make trouble, when he was in the military pavilion before, because Xiao Qianye always likes to take him by his side, he has also told him several times to turn a blind eye to this kind of place, and not to interfere too much, so as not to get into trouble.
He was forcibly transferred to the navy by Bailifeng, and he was already a little unconvinced, but at this time, when he remembered the instructions of his original boss, he still couldn't help but act according to his previous habits.
Jiang Xingze had to smile awkwardly, took the opportunity to drag Hua Xiaoshuang to his side, and said angrily: "Grandma, don't talk so much nonsense, some pastries in the back kitchen will be served first." ”
Hua Xiaoshuang paused slightly, cautiously looked at a certain room upstairs, and said in a low voice: "Didn't you say that those pastries were prepared for the fifth princess! That is the best food in our building right now, and it's too late to buy it again, what should you do if you give them the fifth princess? Do you want her to eat the things you made?"
"Why are you talking so much nonsense, let you go!" Jiang Xingze secretly pinched her, about to be angry with her, Baili Feng's brows gradually stretched, and he already understood most of it in his heart, and said casually: "Don't embarrass this girl, the landlord, is there any special guest living in the building, if it is something prepared for others, there is no need to deliberately send it to us." ”
Zheng Fan looked at Marshal Baili suspiciously, the old man obviously had something to say, got up and walked to the table next to him and touched the still warm tea, and said with a smile: "It seems that Xiao Qinlou hasn't closed the door yet, that is, the other party's identity is higher than that of me, the resigned marshal, so the landlord only accepts him, and refuses to accept me?"
"What is the marshal talking about!" Jiang Xingze complained bitterly in his heart, Baili Feng was obviously prepared, otherwise he, an old man who had never set foot in Xiao Qin Tower in Bei'an City for decades, had no reason to suddenly visit at such a time, just when he was worried and didn't know what reason to prevaricate, Xiao Qianye had already strode down from the upstairs, walked directly in front of Baili Feng, and bowed deeply.
"Sure enough, it's you......" Baili Feng was not surprised, he had heard about what had happened in the imperial capital early in the morning, and knew that there was some kind of reconciliation between Emperor Tianzun and Xiao Qianye, and he had seen Mu Xizhao and Ye Zhuofan in the military pavilion branch before, in line with so many years of caution and keenness, he always felt that most of this person was also in the North Shore City, so he ran to Xiao Qinlou with a tentative mood, and as expected, he saw the person he wanted to see.
Zheng Fan looked at this familiar person in a daze, and before he could shake his senses for a moment, he blurted out in a low voice: "Young Pavilion Master...... You, how did you end up here?"
Xiao Qianye didn't hear it, the more Marshal Baili didn't speak, the more ashamed he felt in his heart, and he was in a stalemate for a long time, until Baili Feng sighed quietly, glanced at the sky outside that had all darkened, and said helplessly: "Can the military pavilion master accompany the old man to the beach for a walk, I remember that although you didn't like to go to sea when you were young, you liked to watch the sea on the shore." ”
Xiao Qianye nodded, Jiang Xingze wanted to help him excuse himself, but Baili Feng waved his hand to interrupt his words, his tone changed, and became strict and majestic: "I know the person behind Xiao Qinlou, and I can also guess the real owner of the landlord, whether it is Gongsun Yan or someone else? You know, I also know, I am a person who has returned to his hometown, but I just want to chat with my righteous son, so don't find an excuse to stop it." ”
Jiang Xingze had to swallow all the words that came to his mouth, Baili Feng saw that he was speechless, so he showed a smile again, patted Xiao Qianye's shoulder happily, and sighed: "To tell the truth, your father Xiao Lingyun is my junior, and he was drunk and unconscious that day, and he picked up a cheap one to let his son recognize me as his father-in-law, so I agreed in a daze, otherwise with his seniority, you have to call my grandfather ...... Hey, that's it. ”
Xiao Qianye didn't know what he was saying these things for, he just lowered his head and said nothing, and followed him slowly towards the beach, the blue sea was as calm as a mirror, the wind blew without setting off a single wave, everything seemed to be the same as in the past.
Zhengfan followed the distance of ten steps away from the two, neither walking, nor staying, he could only look at the two backs of the old and the young from a distance, reflecting the moonlight, exuding a faint outline, although separated by generations, he was at the same level in military rank, but Marshal Baili not only did not have half a point of guilt for this young peer, but every time he mentioned it, he was proud.
Zheng Fan pursed his lips and couldn't help straightening his back, he remembered that Xiao Qianye once said that he was forcibly stuffed to the marshal of the Navy by the former military pavilion master when he was young, and then he met a Kunlun Sword Immortal who chased and killed sea beasts by chance, which completely changed his future, and now that time flies, these two should not have looked at the sea together like this for a long time, right?
