Since the tools used for transportation cannot be used for transportation, they are simply thrown aside.
It's not too far from Wen's old house, just around the corner is Wen's in the west of the city.
Liao Sufan looked at the heavy snowflakes floating in the dark sky outside again, patted Huang Hongyuan's shoulder in front of him, and said firmly, "Director Huang, take off your coat."
Huang Hongyuan was stunned, and quickly took off his coat: "Oh, look at me. Admiral Liao is still cold. I haven't washed this jacket for a few days. Admiral Liao, please don't dislike it."
After receiving the jacket that Huang Hongyuan handed over, Liao Sufan put it on Bai Lixin's body again without saying a word: "Your body is weak and you have suffered trauma, order more clothes."
Bai Lixin smiled, "Then what should you two do?"
"You don't have to worry, both of us are martial arts practitioners, and we can't even stand the cold, how can we serve the country?"
Bai Lixin nodded, glanced at Huang Hongyuan, who was shivering from the cold, and said with a smile: "Thank you very much, Mr. Adjutant, please come along."
The adjutant who was driving the car smiled awkwardly: "But this car..."
"Just leave the car here, and someone dares to steal my Liao Sufan's car? It's getting colder and colder. Since Young Master Wen invited you, why don't you come too?"
Liao Sufan's confidant in the adjutant's office who was driving, when he heard Liao Sufan speak, he no longer refused.
A group of people threw the car over here, and walked back to Wen's house against the wind and snow.
The Wen family was in decline and couldn't afford to support so many servants. Long before, the Liang family gave the servants a soft blow and sent them back. Only those old slaves who had stayed in Wen's house for a long time and had nowhere to go remained, and if all the pieces were counted, there were still five or six servants left.
Liao Sufan asked about the direction of Wen's family, and intentionally or unintentionally stood in front of Wen Xuyao. The snow on the ground is very thick, it is still fresh snow, no one is stepping on it, and it is a bit difficult for people to walk on it.
Liao Sufan walked in front of Baili Xin, his steps were not very big, and he only got into the thick snow one by one.
Bai Lixin is also a trouble-free master, seeing someone willing to step on the road for him, he doesn't waste his energy. Every time Liao Sufan raised his foot, Bai Lixin stepped into Liao Sufan's footprints. In this way, it can be regarded as saving some effort.
Liao Sufan saw it out of the corner of his eye, the corner of his mouth slightly raised.
He originally wanted to cover the wind and snow for Bai Lixin to open the way, but he was afraid that Bai Lixin would not accept his tricks, and he was not good at words, so he simply did it. Unexpectedly, Bai Lixin understood him. In an instant, the warmth of mutual understanding permeated his heart, so that not only did he not feel cold in the cold winter, but a warm current flowed through his whole body.
There was a lot of wind and snow, and no one spoke a word along the way. After walking against the wind and snow for more than ten minutes, a few people arrived in front of the Wen family's ancestral house.
Bai Lixin knocked on the door, but someone opened the door after a while.
As soon as the door was opened, the old butler saw who was coming and shouted, "Oh my god, you are back, young master!"
Liao Sufan blamed himself again.
Bai Lixin was holding the coat in his arms, and he was wearing two coats, and after walking for a while, his face was flushed.
He smiled, "Aren't you coming back now? Before I left, I told you to go to the police station. With Hongyuan here, what else can I do?"
The old housekeeper saw only Baili Xin at the moment, and stomped his feet when he heard his words, "Why is nothing wrong? Didn't you just go to the police station last time and almost lost your life?!"
Liao Sufan's chest hurt like a knife, and he was anxious again.
Bai Lixin laughed heartily, but coughed a few times embarrassingly on his face, "Wen Bo, I brought three guests with me, are you sure you won't let us in first?"
It was only then that Wen Bo remembered that he still blocked Baili Xin from the door, so he hurried out of the way and laughed dryly: "I'm getting old, I forgot about it in a hurry. Hurry up, young master, let's go inside, everyone The guests are also invited inside."
Although the Wen family didn't have many family members, the yard between the gate and the main hall still had a path that one person could pass through. Walk along the path non-stop to the front of the main hall. Bai Lixin first bent over and put the coat covering Miss Peony's bones outside the door, and then pushed open the dark red door. As soon as the door was pushed open, there was a rush of warmth. Right in the center of the front hall, a huge stove was burning red charcoal fire, making the room warm.
Sighing comfortably, Baili Xin took off the two coats and put them on the grand master's chair, then clasped his hands respectfully towards the chief seat and bowed: "Grandpa, I'm back."
At this moment, Liao Sufan and Huang Hongyuan also came in. The old man sat on the main seat and looked down at the crowd. He saw that Liao and Huang were wearing official uniforms, and he didn't get up to greet them. He just glanced at them and then focused his gaze on Bai Lixin: "Have you eaten yet?"
Bai Lixin smiled, put away his hands and stood up, "Not yet, I was busy with some things at noon, so I didn't take care of it."
Mr. Wen's face turned cold, and his eyes turned cold when he looked at Liao and Huang, "Director Huang, long time no see, don't come here without any problems. The other one should be the famous Admiral Liao, right? Admiral Liao The person behind you should be your right-hand man, Senior Adjutant, right? Disrespect, disrespect." Although he said this, there was no hint of disrespect in his tone.
Adjutant Gao's face was a bit ugly, but Liao Sufan's face was reddish. His face was in burning pain now, as if he had been slapped several times, which made him feel ashamed.
He sighed again in his heart, his unreasonable twenty big boards seemed to have offended the entire Wen family.
Why! ! ! I regret it! ! !
Huang Hongyuan smiled flatteringly: "Mr. Wen, long time no see, your body is getting stronger and stronger."
Mr. Wen is now seventy years old, but he has white hair and a childlike face, with a ruddy complexion, and he looks no worse than that young man in health.
"My health is strong, but I feel sorry for my grandson. He just went to the police station, and he suffered that accident. My grandson's health was originally poor, and he finally recovered. He was hungry again today. Commissioner Huang, I am old and not talented, I would like to ask you, is there no law in your police station?"
Mr. Wen has a hot temper. Today he saw his grandson being wronged again, so he is not willing to suffer it.
Liao Sufan's wounded heart was cut with several knives, and he felt more and more guilty.
Huang Hongyuan knew of Mr. Wen's explosive temper, so he could only smile apologetically at the moment, "Yes, yes, it's because I didn't entertain you well, Mr. Wen, calm down, and I'll make a bowl of noodles for Xianzhi." He ran away in a flash.
Hey, Mr. Wen's fiery temper can really be avoided if he can.
In the hall, only Liao Sufan and the adjutant were left.
Seeing that Mr. Wen asked them to sit down, Bai Lixin said haha, "Grandpa, in fact, I would like to thank Admiral Liao. If Admiral Liao hadn't delayed lunch time to accompany me to find an ancient man, how could he have delayed until now. And In order to send me back, Admiral Liao got stuck in the snow and couldn't go back."
Hearing what Bai Lixin said, Mr. Wen's face softened a little: "I see, what are you all doing standing up, please sit down."
Bai Lixin: "..." You old man, who would dare to sit down without opening your mouth.
Finally, people were seated, Bai Lixin heaved a sigh of relief, and secretly winked at Liao Sufan, then heard old man Wen continue: "Xianzhi, which old friend are you looking for?"
Bai Lixin scratched his head and smiled awkwardly: "It's better not to tell you, old man, I'm afraid you will be angry."
Mr. Wen raised his eyebrows, "Nonsense, I have a good temper, how could I be angry?"
Bailixin: "..."
Liao Sufan: "..."
If your old man has a good temper, no one will have a bad temper.
Mr. Wen asked again: "Tell me, who is it?"
Unable to resist Mr. Wen, Bai Lixin had no choice but to say: "It's my former confidante, Miss Peony from Cuiyanlou."
"Oh, that girl who wrote poems for you? She is a good girl. I remember you said that she was redeemed, why? Now she is married as a woman? If Miss Peony is already married as a woman, you can't have another Too many unrealistic ideas, hear?"
Bai Lixin's eyes wandered for a moment, "I want to discuss this matter with you, Grandpa. I will bring Miss Peony back..."
Mr. Wen looked confused: "Bring it back? Where is it? Invite her in quickly, it's so cold outside, what if it freezes?"
Baili Xin laughed dryly, knelt down on the ground suddenly, raised his hands above his head and said, "Grandpa, my grandson has an unfeeling request. Grandpa can accept Miss Mudan as his adopted grandson and be my younger sister."
Mr. Wen hurriedly stood up from the main seat: "What's the matter! Stand up and speak!"
Bai Lixin sighed and told about Miss Peony. At the end, he sighed: "Miss Peony was lonely and helpless all her life, and there was no one to send her to her end after she died. I want to adopt her as a righteous sister and bury her in our Wen family's cemetery, which is my last wish for a friend .”
Although Mr. Wen has a hot temper, he is also a man of temperament. After hearing this, he sighed: "My granddaughter, Mudan, is also a hot tempered person."
Bai Lixin's eyes lit up: "Grandpa agreed?"
Old Man Wen chuckled, "As for the burial, I will leave it to Old Wen. You should rest at home well before your body recovers."
"Okay, grandpa!"
The two talked for so long, but they left Liao Sufan aside, the adjutant's face was slightly green, but Liao Sufan's face was cold, and his eyes were fixed on Baili Xin's place.
Wen Xuyao is really a person of sincerity and sincerity, hey, I was really blind at the beginning, that's why I thought he was a playboy.
Time passed quickly, when Bai Lixin was talking about this matter with Mr. Wen, Huang Hongyuan walked in with a bowl of steaming Yangchun noodles on a tray.
"Ah, ah, the Yangchun noodles I just made are my specialty. Eat quickly, don't go hungry."
Seeing that Huang Hongyuan and Bai Lixin were so familiar that they could come into his kitchen to cook at will, Liao Sufan's expression, which had not changed after being left alone, was now cold.
Huang Hongyuan didn't notice it, and put the tray on the table next to Baili Xin, Huang Hongyuan sat down on the grand teacher's chair next to Bai Lixin, panting: "Xianzhi, where do I live tonight?"
Bai Lixin took a sip of the hot soup, thought for a while and said, "There is an empty room next to my room, why don't you live next door to me?"
"OK!"
"No!"
Almost at the same time, two voices sounded at the same time.
Everyone looked at Liao Sufan in unison, Liao Sufan coughed lightly, "Director Huang, we have to discuss the case tonight."
Bai Lixin laughed, "That's easy. There is also a vacant room next door to me. I wonder if Admiral Liao would mind living next to me tonight?"
Liao Sufan blushed strangely, coughed lightly again, and said, "Since it doesn't affect the analysis of the case, then Liao should be respectful rather than obedient."
Baili Xin curled his lips into a smile, and continued to eat noodles with his head down, hiding his achievements and fame.
