Chapter 503 Family Penpals

Chapter 503 Family Penpals

The green field stretches, and the sunset gradually turns orange in the foothills. On the hillside, several carriages are parked on the roadside not far away, and there are people who follow from far and near. Ning Yi and Su Tan'er are sitting on the grassy slope. Next, look at Xiaochan and Juaner Xing'er playing around Ning Xi.

"You...have you figured it out?"

"If you want to be clear, I don't want to put you here. I made a plan earlier. After the performances in the two buildings, I will come over."

"How is Yongping?"

"You should be ready for the exam."

"I... originally thought you wouldn't come so early. Because the secret report said that Gao Muen was looking for trouble."

"It's all trivial matters. Mr. Ji from the Prime Minister's Mansion helped solve them. The rest of the soldiers will block the water and cover up, so there won't be too much trouble."

"Who is Xiaopin?"

"what?"

"I remember the first meeting of Xiaopin, the double heart word Luo Yi..."

The woman said every word, but Ning Yi's face was full of doubts, as if he had only thought of this at this time.

"That... is Xiaopin referring to people?"

"what?"

"I thought it was referring to something else. In the whole poem, I think these two sentences are the least artistic..."

"...You are too rascal."

"There's really no one named Xiaopin..."

The couple chatted and laughed for a while over the words, Su Tan'er held Ning Yi's palm, and did not say Li Pin's name after all, otherwise Ning Yi's face would probably turn green.After a while, Ning Yi mentioned the matter of returning to Jiangning.

"I brought a few people here. Staying here for a while, I can help you do something. It's an experiment... If you go back to Jiangning, it's time to pay homage to your father-in-law. In fact, this time you go south, there may be another I was in the capital two days earlier, and Chen Fan came to find me."

"Chen Fan..." Su Tan'er naturally remembered the name, and repeated it at this time. After a while, her brows furrowed, "He... this time..."

"The matter of Fang Qifo." Ning Yi looked at Luoxia in the distance and whispered, "He hopes I can help..."

After saying this, looking at the hesitant expression on his wife's face, he shook his head and smiled: "Of course I can't help much."

Su Tan'er's worried expression eased slightly, she lowered her head and thought about it, and still frowned: "But... can you push it away? Do you... want to push it away?"

"It's not a question of whether to push or not. I want to repay the favor, but in this matter, whoever touches it will die. I explained the background to Chen Fan clearly, and Chen Fan can understand it."

"But... Xianggong, you still plan to do something, right?"

Su Tan'er stared at him, Ning Yi sighed, and put his hand around her shoulder: "I hope... even if things don't work out, they can at least save one life, Chen Fan, and this time... Liu Xigua I wouldn't consider meeting them, Fang Baihua's gang doesn't really like to see me, and I don't plan to have any contact with them, maybe at most... Let's see if it's possible to meet Fang Qifo, if possible When I do this, I will do my best.”

He looked at the child who was clapping and screaming not far away, and paused: "This family owns half of yours, so I want you to know about this... We have children now, so I won't mess around. "

"I don't want to... stop you from repaying your favor, if I also have to pay it back... But I'm always a little worried about such a big thing." Su Tan'er leaned on Ning Yi's shoulder and smiled reluctantly. Women always think more than men, but after a while, she calms down: "Is there any other way besides persuading them?"

"There are a few accounts in Jiangnan, maybe we can make a fuss. I don't know the specific situation, but I can inform Chen Fan and the others." Ning Yi told his wife about the accounts and rumors of Fang La's treasures. "These accounts can't be convicted now, but for many things, there is no need to bring a lawsuit to the court. If the person behind the operation is Fang La's direct line, Chen Fan and the others can find a way to find the account, and they can always have some wiggle room."

Su Tan'er nodded.

Soon after, the setting sun burned out the afterglow among the foothills, and night fell.A torch was lit beside the carriage, and a few rays of light slowly went from the hillside to the small county town not far away, and then gathered with the sparse lights in the county town.Due to the arrival of Ning Yi and others, it was difficult to arrange housing in the originally small yard. Tan'er arranged for her daughters and relatives in the yard, and she and Ning Yi lived in an inn in the county seat.When husband and wife are reunited, there is always a lot to say and a lot to do. These things are not enough for outsiders.

In the same night, in the foothills hundreds of miles south of Kihara, there were also some lights.This is not a barren area. There are large and small towns and villages scattered among the rolling foothills and hills, and official roads and rivers are interspersed among them.Many villages are also relatively wealthy.Recently, due to the news that Fang La's bandits committed crimes, the surrounding villages and towns have become a little stricter, and they have also paid more attention to the interrogation of people from the green forests and rivers and lakes.But after all, it is a relatively peaceful area on weekdays. Even so, the surrounding forms will not be as tense as Shandong. For ordinary people, they may not be aware of the changes in the atmosphere in the living area.

Located near a large mansion in the remote foothills, Chen Fan, who was full of dust, passed through several dark posts under the leadership of his former rebel companions, only to see Fang Baihua, who was tired from injury, but still had a divine look in his eyes.The two didn't talk much. After a little greeting, Fang Baihua looked at him, Chen Fan shook his head, and the middle-aged woman nodded indifferently. For her, this result was originally expected.

She has heard a few things about Ning Yi, and she has seen people before. It is one thing for Chen Fan, Xigua and others to be entangled with him, but if the other party can solve this matter of Fang Qifo, then it is also one thing. It's too much to say that Ning Yi is too amazing.And at this moment, she didn't want to pursue anything for Ning Yi's original matter, it was meaningless.

"...I went to inquire about this matter about Master. The background of the people involved is not simple. The first person who wants Master's life is Wang Hao, and then there are several big families in the capital and other places, respectively..."

Chen Fan whispered about this, but Fang Baihua gently raised his hand to interrupt him: "I know."

"Then this matter at the moment..." Chen Fan himself could have died to save Fang Qifo, but he didn't want too many people to be buried with him, but the words were difficult to say, his lips twitched and his eyes twitched. There is also a hint of blood red.Fang Baihua looked at him and shook her head.

"Chen Fan, your master... Actually, I don't want you to be involved in this kind of thing. You are right to think so. If you take someone away at this time, no one will blame you..."

Chen Fan stared at her.

Although he was a disciple of Fang Qifo, in the past in Fang La's army, there was a distinction between superiors and inferiors. Chen Fan did not hold a very important position, and his relationship with Fang Baihua was not as close as Liu Xigua.Therefore, Fang Baihua's eyes at this time also seemed indifferent, that was putting aside her own life and death, and no one needed to understand her indifference.

"Go down and see Watermelon. She's been a bit temperamental these days. You young people, talk more. There's no need to talk about other things."

Chen Fan nodded and then left.

Recently, Xigua faced the former enemy who killed his father on one side, and his companions on the other side may not understand the Ba Dao Camp that left when the city of Hangzhou was broken. There is a reason for his temper.When Chen Fan found her, she was sitting in a daze on a big rock on the hillside outside the courtyard, holding the big knife in her arms. Seeing Chen Fan coming, her eyes moved slightly, but then it became colder.

"I saw him." Chen Fan said, "but he can't help it."

Watermelon's eyes moved originally, but then returned to indifferent again.Chen Fan said: "He can't come to see you, but he hopes you can take care of the overall situation and leave here."

The girl holding the giant blade tilted her head and looked at the moonlight in the sky. After a while, she said, "He knows that even if he comes over, he can't persuade me."

"He asked me to bring you a letter." Chen Fan took out a letter from his arms. He originally wanted to hand it to the girl, but looking at the other party's expression, he finally just put it on the stone beside her.In fact, both of them may not feel good about the current situation. Chen Fan went to Beijing to find Ning Yi with hope, but when he came back, he had to tell Fang Baihua, Xigua and others to leave.When Chen Fan went to Beijing to find Ning Yi, Xigua might have a trace of expectation in her heart. There was no way at this time. Although she was mentally prepared, she was of course sad and disappointed.

After Chen Fan left, the girl sat there, ignoring the letter next to her, holding the big knife and pressing her cheek against the hilt.It was not until the moment when the mountain wind picked up that the letter was about to be blown away, she caught it easily.

The moonlight on the mountainside was clear, but not enough to read letters.The girl sat for a while, carried the big knife behind her back, and walked to a small house not far away from the manor.Over the past few days, many of the people who saved the Seven Buddhas did not like to see her, and she did not like to see those people. Today, when Fang Baihua used her strength to place those people in the manor, she simply didn't bother to go there, and only stayed with Du Sha and others. Choose to live around.

She walked to the door of the dilapidated small room, put a half-burned torch in her hand, lit it, and sat casually on the ground under the eaves with a large knife. When she took out the letter from the envelope, the paper was densely packed with words. This made her feel a little angry.

She has practiced martial arts since childhood, and although she is literate, her writing skills are not enough.Sometimes I feel a headache when I read some letters written by literati and scholars. Ning Yi's writing skills are very high. What's the point of writing such an article to show off, but I can't understand it myself.However, after reading a few words, this feeling disappeared without a trace.

"Agua, the words are like face. It's been almost a year since we parted from the south. I don't know what the family around you has become now, and whether you are still as willful as before... I am very I want to come and see you, but the situation doesn't allow it..."

The title of the head of the text was something she didn't like before, but the displeasure only rose for a moment, because the next sentence was a strange vernacular that she could easily understand and had never seen before. .Under the firelight, the girl who looked a little thin, holding a big knife, raised her lips slightly, and then smiled unknowingly, because through the paper, she seemed to see the man who parted ways last year. Over there, talking to her casually and gently, this feeling made her feel a warmth that she had not felt for many days, she followed the paper and kept looking at it...
