From Jinling to the south, not far from Jiangsu, is Hucheng. Hucheng is between Jinling and Yangzhou, as the hinterland of the south of the Yangtze River, it is also a prosperous place.

Bai Qinghe and Bai Suzhen's grandfather and daughter, set off from Hangzhou the next day after the Qingming Festival, although Bai Qinghe was in poor health, he still had to rush back to Jinling in a hurry.

He has been worried about his granddaughter Bai Suzhen's marriage for so many years, but this time he is unusually anxious. But it's also ...... It's the first time in these years that he's seen his granddaughter so interested in a man!

And what's even more hateful is that he was a wise man, and he actually believed Shi Yuan's nonsense, and came to Hangzhou to find Xu Hanwen...... This feeling of being deceived made Bai Qinghe feel extremely unhappy.

So, he decided to hurry back to Jinling, let go of his face as a great Confucian, and clean up Shi Yuan...... Then, let him marry his granddaughter, but his last wish.

Yesterday, when passing by Hucheng, Bai Qinghe, who was like an arrow, finally couldn't resist the persuasion of his granddaughter and stopped in Hucheng.

According to Bai Qinghe's meaning, they were only going to set off yesterday for a little repair in Hucheng. But when he arrived in Hucheng, Bai Suzhen decocted the medicine for him, and after he took the medicine, it was not early. So under Bai Suzhen's insistence, they had to stay in Hucheng for one night......

But who knew that it was the night I lived, but something happened!

Originally, Bai Qinghe was drenched in the rain during Qingming and suffered from the cold, plus he dragged his illness from Hangzhou, and after arriving in Hucheng, although he took medicine, after resting for one night, his condition became more serious, so that he couldn't even get out of bed......

Seeing this, Bai Suzhen hurriedly found Lang Zhong in Hucheng. After tossing for most of the day, Bai Qinghe recovered a little without danger, and he was finally able to get out of bed.

Seeing that her grandfather was seriously ill, she originally wanted to wait in Hucheng for a while and wait until Bai Qinghe recovered before setting off. But after Bai Qinghe improved slightly, he immediately stubbornly wanted to leave Hucheng! For this reason, he even lost his temper with Bai Suzhen......

In order not to make him angry, he accumulated depression and aggravated his condition. Bai Suzhen was helpless, so she had no choice but to agree. Therefore, they only left Hucheng not far from this time.

After Bai Qinghe got in the car, he couldn't stop coughing. Not long after leaving the city, he fell asleep......

In the car, Bai Suzhen sat beside her, holding her grandfather's hand tightly, listening to his heavy and dull breathing, tears flowed unconsciously...... If it weren't for his willfulness, his grandfather would not have come all the way from Jinling to Hangzhou, and he would not be as painful as he is now......

She subconsciously didn't care about Shi Yuan, but just blamed all this on herself. Now she only hopes to return to Jinling soon, and only hopes that her grandfather can get better soon.

The "boom" spring thunder startled Bai Suzhen, who was secretly blaming herself, and Bai Qinghe, who was sleeping, was also awakened.

"Just ...... Was it thunder? Bai Qinghe, whose consciousness was still a little vague, asked a little tiredly.

When Bai Suzhen saw her grandfather wake up, she hurriedly wiped her tears, shook her head with a smile and said, "There is no grandfather, you can continue to sleep!" ”

But Bai Qinghe had already seen his granddaughter's behavior in his eyes, and knew that she was crying just now, so he wanted to comfort her. But when he opened his mouth, he couldn't help but cough in bursts......

"Grandpa...... Are you okay? Seeing this, Bai Suzhen hurriedly patted Bai Qinghe's back and asked extremely nervously. After speaking, she turned out a pill wrapped in hemp paper from the side, which she specially asked Lang Zhong in the city to ask for when she saw that her grandfather insisted on leaving Hucheng.

Seeing Bai Suzhen hand over the pill, Bai Qinghe hesitated, because the pill didn't taste good, and it had to be held in his mouth, which made him very uncomfortable.

But seeing Bai Suzhen's worried expression, he still took the pill and put it in his mouth. Only then did he finally stop coughing, looked at Bai Suzhen and smiled slightly: "I'm fine, I still want to see Suzhen get married!" ”

In the past, when Bai Qinghe talked about this, Bai Suzhen would say something willful. But this time, looking at Bai Qinghe, who was extremely haggard and forced to smile in front of her, she finally nodded......

"Grandpa, go back to Jinling, and I'll get married when you get well! You can marry anyone, your granddaughter will never be willful again, grandpa, don't worry about this anymore......"

Seeing that Bai Suzhen's attitude had actually changed, Bai Qinghe grinned like a child: "Go back, I will definitely tie up that kid from Shi Yuan for you!" Grandpa knows, which kid do you like......"

Bai Suzhen's face was slightly red, and she wanted to argue, but when the words came to her mouth, she still didn't say it in the end. just subconsciously looked out of the car through the curtain......

After a while, Bai Qinghe, who was awakened by this spring thunder, also fell asleep again......

The sky was about to get dark soon, and there was a small city not long ahead, Bai Suzhen looked at the small city looming in the rain curtain and breathed a sigh of relief. But Bai Qinghe next to her, breathing was even heavier......

The Lin family, which had just made some improvements, was once again immersed in the haze because of Nangong Rong's "accident" death at this time.

The people gathered in the hall had dispersed, but Nangong Rong's body was still in the hall of the Lin family.

Although the weather in the middle of spring is not very hot, and the corpse does not decompose, it can't help but make people shudder when it is kept in the hall like this. So much so that no one in the Lin family dared to go to the hall......

After Brother Shi and Lin Yingyue sent Lin Chengming back, he sent Lin Yingyue back to the Bamboo Courtyard, and finally had the opportunity to change out of the already soaked clothes on his body.

Speaking of which, since the rain during the Qingming Festival, he has been wet with rain every day for the past few days, and more and more things have happened.

At this time, Gao Xiaowu was still in Xiao Lei's room, although the two were of the same age, Gao Xiaowu was obviously much more mature and sophisticated than Xiao Lei. So much so that Xiao Lei felt that Gao Xiaowu was much older than himself.

Because they had been staying in the room, the two of them didn't know that something had happened to the Lin family's paper mill at this time, and they didn't know what had happened in the Lin family's hall. But for the entanglement between Shi Yuan and the Jin family, Gao Xiaowu listened to Xiao Lei.

So, in this short period of time, Gao Xiaowu has already defined the Jin family as his enemy, and then Luo Haotian, the prefect of Jinling...... But Xiao Lei didn't know this.

"It should be that Childe is back, you wait here first, and I'll go and report to him."

Hearing the sound of the door opening next door, Xiao Lei said with relief. Because there are too many questions in Gao Xiaowu, some of which he doesn't know at all, this peer actually makes him feel a little pressure!

"I'll go with you!" But Gao Xiaowu stood up and said very firmly......

Although the contact has not been in place for a long time, Xiao Lei already knows almost the character of the young man in front of him. So after hearing Gao Xiaowu's words, he had no choice but to nod helplessly......

Brother Shi had just changed his clothes when he heard a knock on the door......

"Gong ...... Brother Shi, can I come in? Regarding the issue of addressing Shi Yuan, although Shi Yuan has emphasized it many times, Xiao Lei is just a little unaccustomed to it.

Hearing that it was Xiao Lei's voice, Brother Shi replied: "Come in, you and I are two big men, what's the matter...... High School Five? ”

As Brother Shi was talking, he saw Gao Xiaowu who came in with Xiao Lei, and subconsciously shouted.

Seeing that Shi Yuan really knew Gao Xiaowu, Xiao Lei was about to speak. But Gao Xiaowu grabbed ahead of him and said, "Shi Yuan, I can't go up to that Yelian Island, no one is willing to take us up." ”

Hearing that this person actually called Shi Yuan's name directly, Xiao Lei couldn't help frowning, but Shi Yuan didn't care, but after coming back to his senses, he asked with some curiosity: "Then how did you get into the city and come here?" ”

"Walked in, of course!" Gao Xiaowu's answer was so natural, so relaxed, as if this Jinling City was completely defenseless.

"Walked in? Hahaha...... You're a fucking genius! ”

Brother Shi said suspiciously, and then couldn't help laughing, and then walked to Gao Xiaowu's side, patted him on the shoulder and sighed...... And Gao Xiaowu subconsciously frowned and dodged.

"Xiao Lei, you go out first!" Seeing Gao Xiaowu dodging away, Brother Shi didn't care, just turned his head and said something to Xiao Lei. Xiao Lei heard it, so he nodded and walked out.

Next, Gao Xiaowu talked about how they came to Jinling. Brother Shi listened, and couldn't help but sigh: I really thought about this matter too simply, Dong Qingyun, an old fox, seems to be running Yelian Island without leaking! However, it is a miracle that Gao Xiaowu and his party can enter Jinling City in such a grand manner!

"Did you say that there were four other people who came with you, and they also live in the city now?"

"Yes, they live in the city!" Gao Xiaowu nodded and replied.

"Hmmm! So be it, lately...... I have a lot of things to do, I'll ...... tomorrow I really don't necessarily have time to go to Yelian Island! Just follow me for a while! ”

Naturally, he didn't have time, but if he wanted to go to Yelian Island, he would inevitably have to go to the Governor's Mansion to trouble Qiao Cannon. But today I just offended Liu Ruyan...... No, it should be said that except for Dong Feng, Dong Qingyun's whole family, but this governor's mansion has not been going to go for the past two days......

Gao Xiaowu didn't say much, just nodded silently. Now that Shi Yuan has found it, there is no need to worry about whether they will stay in Jinling City.

As for Gao Xiaowu, Brother Shi's interest is still relatively large.

Such a teenager of the same age as Xiao Lei can mix in the refugee pile outside Yangzhou City, and it is indeed not just by luck. So, Brother Shi began to ask about Gao Xiaowu.

Although Gao Xiaowu came to Jinling in a daze, he didn't know much about Shi Yuan. The reason why he came back was completely based on his intuition.

He was basically very rational in his actions, and he never relied on intuition, but this was the only time.

He didn't know why, after Shi Yuan stood in front of him that day and said those words to him, he couldn't help but want to come to Jinling to have a look. Now that I am talking to Shi Yuan, I am gradually getting acquainted with it, and I realize that this "Jinling Demon King" who once picked himself up with one move is not a big deal......

Yes, "nothing remarkable"! is Gao Xiaowu's evaluation of Brother Shi, a man who claims to have the aura of the protagonist, after talking to Brother Shi for a long time.

I don't know how Brother Shi will feel after knowing this evaluation?
