Chang Sihao looked up and saw a white-haired old man walking at the door, with a long beard covering his neck, his eyes were bright, his clothes were complicated, and he was quite delicate and exquisite, he threw out this piece of silver, obviously he was going to pay the bill for himself, and hurriedly put away his knife and got up and gave it away, and before the polite words could be said, the old man's face was full of joy and he smiled and stretched out his palm and pressed it slightly: "Coincidental, coincidental, coincidental, it's really a fate to meet Chang Shaoxia, don't be polite, don't be polite," sat down in the original position where Xiao Jinshiyue came from, and waved his hand to signal the shopkeeper to remove the dishes and bowls on the table
When the shopkeeper saw the silver, he took his hand into his sleeve, got up, approached it with a quick step, hurriedly picked up the table, and quickly retreated, and hid far behind the counter
The old man didn't pay attention to Chang Sihao's puzzled gaze, took out a handkerchief, wiped the table that the shopkeeper had just wiped again, picked up the handkerchief, and then said: "The young man doesn't recognize the old man, so he feels strange, hehehe, the old man's surname is Xiao Xiao Bobai."
Chang Sihao heard Qin Juexiang talk about it, knowing that Xiao Bobai was an old servant of the Xiao Mansion, and he had accompanied Xiao Jinshiyue to participate in the sword test conference, and he was able to appear here, so he must have followed his master
Xiao Bobai smiled and said: "The old man is looking for Chang Shaoxia for something, and it is really good to meet him here unexpectedly," he said, took out a piece of paper from his arms, pressed it on the table, and slowly pushed it forward
Chang Sihao looked at him, puzzled by his meaning, picked up the paper and opened it, only to see the first two big words: "Retirement book" My heart was even more strange Continue to look at it I saw that what was written on it was: "Chang Sihao, the author of the book, is the eldest daughter of the Duke of Qinmen in Taiyuan Prefecture, Shanxi Province, after unexpectedly passing the door, the Qin family is narrow-minded and jealous, disobedient to her in-laws, has no talent, and has no temperament, so she abandons going out and lets him find another husband, remarries with others, and never interferes with the ...... of family property."
Before he could finish reading, Xiao Bobai beckoned the shopkeeper to take a pen and handed it over: "The young man can sign his name at the bottom and write the date."
Chang Sihao said: "You're not kidding, right?"
Xiao Bobai said: "Marriage is not a child's play?"
Chang Sihao read this divorce book again to make sure that he was not mistaken, and felt more and more funny, and thought that it was okay to rest endlessly, and there was actually a disobedient in-laws in the reason for this recess My parents are long gone, and where can Yin'er go to disobey her in-laws It's a joke Fold the paper Jane Push it back and laughed: "Old man, your joke is a bit big My husband and wife have a good relationship Why do you write a letter of divorce?"
Xiao Bobai glanced at him and put the pen next to him The whole person seemed to become calm in an instant and smiled: "Is the relationship very good As far as the old man knows, but this is not the case If the news of the old man is not wrong, Mrs. Zun should have lost all her memories For this reason, she also went to Hengshan to seek medical treatment once He didn't mind Chang Sihao's direct gaze leaned back slightly Leaning back on the back of the chair and said more calmly: "In front of real people, don't tell lies Chang Shaoxia In fact, Mrs. Zun loved her heart before she got sick, and I'm afraid it wasn't you."
Chang Sihao's nose fanned and his lips tightened
Xiao Bobai said: "Shaoxia doesn't have to be angry, Lao Yu understands that Shaoxia has a wife in his arms, and he can control the Qin family's huge wealth and power It is really difficult to let go, but the twisted melon is not sweet Why should Shaoxia make both parties suffer for his own selfishness " He took out a stack of golden tickets from his arms and put them on the table, "If Shaoxia can promise Lao Yu to sign the letter of resignation, it will not only give her freedom, but also liberate herself These 500,000 taels of golden tickets should be regarded as a little compensation from Xiao Mansion to Shaoxia How about "
Chang Sihao smiled: "Ouch, it is rumored that the Xiao Mansion has been in decline for a year, but I didn't expect to be so generous."
Xiao Bobai sighed: "I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed, Xiao Mansion is really not as good as it was back then, I didn't take care of this family, I'm really ashamed of the old master" handed the pen forward again
"Hmph" Chang Sihao slapped the table and stood up: "I have limited time in the next time, I can't accompany him more, old man, we will have a date later" Xiao Bobai raised his eyebrows: "Slowly" reached out and grabbed his shoulder
Chang Sihao's lower abdomen arched, and the table moved forward between Xiao Bobai's chest and abdomen, and the two of them worked hard at the same time, and they heard a "click" sound The wooden board was broken inch by inch The golden ticket and the book of resignation flew in the sky Xiao Bobai snorted angrily and split out with one palm
Chang Sihao's toes were buckled inward, and a wave of heat was adjusted from the soles of his feet to his palms, and his hands were raised, and the two palms of the two were instantly intertwined
The purlin shook suddenly, and the air in the entire room seemed to expand dozens of times in an instant, so that the ceiling and window edges hummed, and the shopkeeper who was far behind the counter actually stood unsteadily, and his body fell to the ground The inkstone was grabbed by him, and the ink splashed on his face
When I got up and looked out, I saw Chang Sihao standing firmly in place In front of him was a passage paved by broken tables and broken stools At the end of the passage, Xiao Bo's white ass was backwards The whole person was imprinted into the wall Frightened, he shrank his neck and hurriedly returned to the back of the counter Suddenly saw a golden ticket floating in the air His eyes couldn't help but straighten and he said, "Is this a dream?"
Chang Sihao only felt that the heat in his palm slowly flowed back to the dantian, and his whole body was full of warmth, knowing that the yin and yang conversion that Wu Dao said was not happy in his body, and he was not only healing his wounds, but also his power was constantly growing
Xiao Bobai broke out of the wall, bent his knees twice, and finally held on, and sighed astringently: "Old...... ...... old," he suddenly felt that his throat was blocked, and he quickly closed his lips, and his face was wrinkled and desolate for a while
First, I didn't expect that after Wu Dao's guidance, my shot would become so heavy Second, the other party was an old man after all, not to mention that I had solved the siege of the account just now Seeing him like this, Chang Sihao was a little reluctant to go, and hurriedly rushed over to support Xiao Bobai waved his hand and said: "It was the old man who made the first move, no wonder there was a young sword" He struggled to rummage on the ground Find the letter of resignation Turn around and hand it to Chang Sihao again Pleading: "No matter what, please be merciful to Shaojian and sign on it" As he spoke, his knees weakened and he knelt down
Chang Sihao was made to cry and laugh by him, hurriedly hugged him, pulled a chair to help him sit down, and asked, "Old man, why do you have to force me to divorce my wife?"
Xiao Bobai seems to have something unspeakable Thinking about it for a long time, he didn't have a follow-up Chang Sihao said: "The old man has something to say, why bother like this" Xiao Bobai hesitated for a long time, and seemed to have no way to say it, and sighed again and again Chang Sihao waited patiently for a while, and saw that he was still awkward, and Deng Jue was irritable, and arched his hand: "It's inconvenient for you to say, Chang Mou won't inquire We will ...... later" Before he finished speaking, Xiao Bobai had already grabbed him and sighed: "Alas, it's just that...... Today I will speak bluntly to Shaojian."
He said he wanted to speak bluntly, but his eyes rolled up, his expression was sad, and he seemed to think about the past and seemed to be looking for words for a long time, and then he muttered, "That's the way it is...... Alas, at that time, the Luojia family in Henan, the Tangmen in Sichuan, and the Xiaofu in Jiangnan were collectively known as the three major families of martial arts...... When the Luo family is the leader, the secret weapon poison is ...... Since the Tang Sect is the dominant When it comes to swordsmanship, then I have to say that I respect the Xiao Mansion I want to be in the Northern Song Dynasty during the Jingde period......"
His tone was slow and leisurely, Chang Sihao almost fainted when he heard it, and hurriedly stopped: "Old man, old man, can we make a long story short?"
"Yes, yes," Xiao Bobai was afraid that he would turn around and leave again, and said: "Then not to mention the illustrious background of my Xiao Mansion back then, not to mention the few martial arts masters cultivated by Xiao Mansion in the past two hundred years As for the matter of my master Xiao Yu picking up cigarettes...... he glanced at Chang Sihao's face, "...... Needless to say...... The important thing is that since the fight with the Tang Gate, my house has declined a lot, and it has been very depressed in the rivers and lakes over the years."
Chang Sihao listened patiently and thought: "If you want to talk about decline and depression, I'm afraid that the Tang Sect is even better, and it seems that this big battle was really tragic back then."
Xiao Bobai said: "Although it is so on the surface, but the master has never forgotten the shame and wants to revive the prestige of the Xiao family all the time, but the years are not forgiving, he is already old and decrepit, and this burden naturally falls on the head of my eldest young master, Ah Yue."
Hangzhou people are accustomed to adding the word "A" in front of the child, Chang Sihao doesn't know this custom, the corners of his mouth twitch when he hears it, and he wants to laugh, and thinks that the name "Ah Yue" is so tender If you don't know, you can still think that it is a big girl
Xiao Bobai took a deep breath and continued: "My young master Ah Yue is already introverted and shy......"
"Flutter" Li Shuangji was happy next to him Seeing Chang Sihao looking at himself, he coughed lightly and explained: "Ahem, it's okay, it's okay, I just suddenly remembered a song" Then he tilted his head and hummed a few times Chang Sihao listened to him hum the tune of "Girl, beautiful, your nose is a small hill ...... that rests in the wind" and also laughed, thinking that Xiao Jinyue saw Yan Shumei's virtue Not much worse than the demon king in Liu Jinwu's color Isn't it a joke to say that such a person is introverted and shy
Xiao Bobai didn't know what they were laughing at, he was stunned for a moment, and then said: "He is introverted and shy, doesn't like to talk, and is strictly guarded by the old man, and is forced to practice kendo day and night, so people are getting colder and colder, and over time, almost all year round, he doesn't speak much, and the house is full of male servants, and outsiders are not allowed to visit casually, so that when he grows up to ten ** years old, don't say that adult girls, even little girls, old women, he has never touched."
Li Shuangji's face was not in disbelief, Chang Sihao was a little in a trance, firstly, because this cold state was in line with the original description of Jue Xiang, and secondly, there was a matter of taking care of his son for 20 years without a liver Then it is not impossible for this old man Xiao to look forward to Sun Chengqi and guard the child for more than ten years and force him to practice swords
Xiao Bobai said: "When he was twenty years old, the young master came to Beijing accompanied by the old man, and when he first entered the rivers and lakes, he reached the highest point of verifying sword science, and he shined in the sword test ring and became famous in one fell swoop At that time, the old swordsman Xu and the master of the Zheng League were ready to take the young master into the Sword Cultivation Hall for further study, but my young master was stunned for a while, and his eyes were straight, and he was confused as if he had lost his soul.
Chang Sihao thought to himself: "Dare to love There was such a hidden relationship Xiao Bobai let go of such a cloud of smoke In fact, he wanted to make the relatives and friends of the dead and injured in the sword trial ring afraid Don't dare to go to them for revenge Xiao Jinyue killed so many people The high swordsmanship is indisputable, but Wude may not be able to enter the eyes of the old swordsman Xu Exceptionally include him in the Sword Cultivation Hall In addition to cherishing him as a talent and wanting to give some guidance and guidance, I probably also have the intention of restraining him."
Xiao Bobai recalled the past, and his old face was full of sorrow: "After we got home, we tried our best to make the young master recover, and he was so stupid...... No, no, no, how could the young master be stupid He just ...... It's just ......," he said, shaking his head again and again, as if he couldn't find the right words, his face was so red that his neck was swollen, and he suddenly twitched his mouth
Chang Sihao saw him with a face full of self-reproach and said, "I just choked up for a while."
"Yes, yes, yes" Xiao Bobai said: "Choked, choked, just like eating and eating wrong, the feeling of choking people are not big problems, there are no big problems" He breathed a sigh of relief, the wrinkles on his forehead and the corners of his eyes were squeezed, and his sad face returned to his face like a lingering haze, and he continued: "Later, suddenly one day, the servant reported that the young master often talked nonsense in his sleep, and the old man and I lurked outside his window and eavesdropped, at first I saw him lying quietly without a sound, and then I was tired of staring at the old man, so I squatted with my back against the window and waited for most of the night, and suddenly there was a loud noise in the house: "No, no, no," we peeked through the crack in the window, and saw the young master lying on the bed, waving his arms, and shouting, "Strange, strange", as if there was some great mystery in our hearts that was difficult to solve."
