Mr. Wu's expression was still as calm as water, and he repeated lightly: "Once I leave, I will never come back."
Lu Zhong raised his eyebrows, this time he heard clearly! His eyes flickered, and he asked in a low voice for a moment: "Is it related to Zhou Si's letter?"
"That's right," Mr. Wu nodded, and said again: "He helped me find a relative who I couldn't find and thought he was dead. Besides, his name is not Zhou Si, but Zhou Shizhi."
After Mr. Wu finished speaking, he looked at Lu Zhong calmly.
Lu Zhong sighed softly, "That's how it is!", suddenly his body shook, and his expression suddenly changed.
Mr. Wu still looked at him calmly, but at that moment, Lu Zhong knew that his expression was completely in his eyes. It is impossible not to admit it.
"Is... the young son of the backer's mansion?" Lu Zhong's voice was lower and cautious, with a slight tremor.
"Yes, although what he said in his letter was cryptic, he admitted his identity." Mr. Wu sighed and nodded.
Lu Zhong stepped back, his heart beat wildly, he was stunned, and suddenly felt speechless.
In fact, like Mr. Wu, he thought that he would spend his whole life in such obscurity in Maple Leaf Village, but he didn't expect...
For a long time, both of them were speechless.
Destiny is so wonderful, what should come will come after all, completely ignoring what you have planned! He only comes at his pace.
"So, he is asking you to come out of the mountain? Mr. Wu, if I guessed correctly, this should be your pseudonym?" Lu Zhong said softly.
Mr. Wu smiled wryly, and sighed lightly: "That's right, my surname is Bai, and the single name is written in ink—"
Mr. Wu had just finished declaring his house when he heard Lu Zhong say "ah" in a low voice, and looked up at him in surprise.
"Hehe!" Mr. Wu smiled lowly, and laughed at himself, "I didn't expect my name to be quite famous!"
Lu Zhong also laughed, and said: "Ten years ago, you were famous all over the south of the Yangtze River. If you hadn't had the imperial examination turmoil back then, maybe you would have been famous all over the world now! How could I not know it!"
Mr. Wu hooked the corners of his lips, and the irony in his eyes was even stronger, but he didn't answer the words, he just said to himself: "According to my guess, Xiao Shizi probably guessed my identity from that girl Xiaoshu, what I didn't expect is , he actually found Biqing..."
It was only then that Lu Zhong suddenly realized that Mr. Wu—should be called Mr. Bai, had a confidante. Although he didn't know his name, but now that he said it so softly, it must be this Miss Biqing. ! only-
"Xiao Shu?" Lu Zhong asked in surprise, "How could she know your identity? Even if she knew, it would be impossible to talk about it with Xiao Shizi properly!"
Mr. Bai smiled knowingly, and said: "I also thought about it for a long time before I figured it out! It's a long story, brother Lu Xian from Biteng Mountain, have you heard of it?"
Lu Zhong nodded, but Mr. Bai's next words almost didn't shock him!
"... Xiao Shizi has probably seen my paintings and hers, so it's not difficult to think of one..." Mr. Bai finally laughed.
Lu Zhong's complexion hadn't recovered yet, and he let out a breath and smiled bitterly after a while: "This girl, really—tell me what to say about her!"
Mr. Bai laughed out loud, quite smugly, and said: "I think this girl is really good, she is very smart, I didn't expect her and Xiao Shizi—"
Lu Zhong's complexion changed slightly, and he sighed slightly. The son of the backer king is burdened with blood debts all over his family, and he is destined to do great things in this life. The enmity of the family must be more important to him than anything else. In order to avenge his grievances, no one knows what will happen in the future. Although Xiao Shu is jovial on weekdays, he is a fierce person in his bones. I'm afraid...
"Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Xiao Shizi and Xiao Shu share weal and woe. Besides, Xiao Shu's temper is not one to suffer. Brother Lu Xian doesn't have to worry about her!" Mr. Bai smiled.
"That's right," Lu Zhong smiled self-consciously.
"I will leave with Zhou Han early tomorrow morning, and I hope we can meet again without waiting too long." Mr. Wu looked at Lu Zhong, his eyes were as calm as a lake, deep and deep.
Lu Zhong was shocked. Some things were not ready to be honest. Although Mr. Bai might have already guessed something, he couldn't say it until the time came.
"I also hope that that day won't be too long! I hope that Mr. will not be disappointed." Lu Zhong also smiled.
Mr. Bai laughed loudly, nodded and said: "Thank you for your good words! That girl Xiaoshu won't be disappointed, and I certainly won't either!"
"That's true!" Lu Zhong said, and the two looked at each other and laughed.
The two talked for a long time, saying goodbye, and Lu Zhong personally sent Mr. Bai out. Seeing his shadow on the faint lantern gradually disappearing, he sighed softly, and slowly turned around to close the door.
When Lu Zhongwen entered the bedroom quietly, Miao Cuilan had already fallen asleep. When she heard the movement, she slightly opened her sleepy eyes, and said vaguely: "What time is it... It's not that the sky won't dawn, and Mr. Wu What did you say for so long... go to sleep..."
Over the past two years, there have been accidents at home one after another, and it was not until this night that she could truly fall asleep peacefully.
"Did it bother you?" Lu Zhongwen smiled, undressed and went to bed lightly, looked at his wife beside him, sighed silently, and lay down slowly.
Mr. Bai has lived here for so many years, and someone can find him, so what about him? Is it really possible to continue to live in peace and tranquility? From this point of view, it is better for Xiaoshu and the others not to come back...
As for Aqi, if possible, it is best to transfer away from Guxi Town...
At dawn the next day, Mr. Bai and Zhou Han left Maple Leaf Village without a sound. Miao Cuilan got up and disappeared, but Zhou Han felt very sorry, complaining that he shouldn't be in such a hurry, and she didn't have time to ask some questions carefully!
Lu Zhong comforted her for a while before persuading her.
Mr. Bai and Zhou Han rushed all the way, and arrived at Qilin Villa in early October.
Zhou Shizhi, Lu Xiaoshu and others had already learned the news in advance, and they were all waiting at the gate of Zhuangzi at this time.
Seeing the carriage approaching, Lu Xiaoshu's eyes lit up, and he happily called "Master! Master!" and rushed up.
When Mr. Bai got off the car, he saw a petite figure wrapped in a fiery red wind-fur cloak and wearing deerskin boots rushing towards him. He laughed, and gently embraced her, patted her on the shoulder and shook his head Smiling and sighing: "This girl, why is she such a big person, and she is still the same as when she was a child!"
"You are my master!" Lu Xiaoshu raised his head and giggled.
Zhou Shizhi and the others also surrounded him, and seeing Lu Xiaoshu talking and laughing with Mr. Bai, who was so affectionate and smiling like a flower, the sour smell of vinegar in Zhou Shizhi's heart rose slightly. Knowing Lu Xiaoshu's temperament, he had no choice but to pretend. Tsukuru didn't see it, and stepped forward to salute, "Mr. Bai, you've worked hard all the way!"
"Young Master Zhou! Don't dare to be the one! It's time to thank you, Mr. Bai!" Mr. Bai returned the salute with a smile.
Xiaoxue and Tong Yu'er were slightly taken aback, they were both a little puzzled, isn't it Mr. Wu? How did you become Mr. Bai
However, neither of them asked, but also smiled and stepped forward to salute.
Mr. Wu's eyes lit up when he saw them, and he said with a smile: "You are all well, Brother Lu Xian and his siblings are finally relieved!" Then he smiled gently at Xiaoxue, his concern was palpable.
Xiaoxue's heart warmed, and she also smiled. Whenever she sees a new relative from the past, her heart will always experience some tension and uneasiness. The warmth and relief after seeing her made her heart recover bit by bit.
"Mr. Bai has come from a long way, and the road is full of dust, please go in and rest first! The yard has already been prepared in the village, sir please!" Zhou Shizhi raised his hand with a smile, and shopkeeper Yi Da and others also stepped forward and said yes with a smile.
"It's such a bother!" Mr. Bai smiled, followed them, his eyes swept across the crowd, secretly showing a little disappointment.
Only then did Zhou Shizhi notice that Miss Biqing, who was still here just now, had disappeared. Now she felt a little embarrassed, and wanted to explain but didn't know where to start.
Lu Xiaoshu also noticed it, and he just felt it was funny, is Mrs. Zhun shy
"Master, you should go to rest first! After you have rested, you will have the energy to do other things!" Lu Xiaoshu blinked at Mr. Bai and smiled slyly, the meaning couldn't be more obvious. Even an honest person like Tong Yu'er couldn't help but hide her mouth and giggle.
Mr. Bai was stunned, he couldn't help crying and laughing, he glared at Lu Xiaoshu angrily, smiled wryly and shook his head slightly. After all, he is his proud disciple, he really understands the meaning of the teacher!
"Sir, please." Zhou Shizhi held back a smile and raised his hand.
Mr. Bai withdrew his gaze from staring at Lu Xiaoshu, and followed Zhou Shizhi.
Lu Xiaoshu talked to his little aunt and sister a few words, then asked where Miss Biqing went, and then hurried away.
Xiaoxue accompanied Tong Yuer back to the Linglong Pavilion, seeing Tong Yuer's expression was a little dazed, Xiaoxue knew her thoughts, she must have seen her husband and Miss Biqing's reunion soon, and thought of herself from this, so she felt emotional.
Then he persuaded softly: "Little aunt, didn't Mr. Zhou say that everything is fine in the capital, and we will definitely reunite with him!"
Tong Yu'er sighed, and said with a wry smile: "But, he doesn't remember anything..." They miss him day and night, but in his life, they have long since lost their place! Even all the memories of the past have been completely wiped out!
Whenever she thinks of this, Tong Yuer is very sad. She even couldn't help thinking, what if he was like this all his life, what should she do
Seeing her like this, Xiaoxue quickly laughed and said: "Little aunt, don't think so, look, isn't Mr. Wu here? As long as Mr. Wu is here, there will be a solution!"
Tong Yu'er didn't realize her eyes lit up, and the expression on her face finally relaxed a bit, she nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, why did I forget this! With Mr. Wu here, he will definitely find a way!"
"Well, there has never been anything that can be difficult for Mr. Wu!" Xiaoxue nodded and smiled. This is not only for Tong Yuer, but also for her own comfort
