Chapter 79
In the early morning, Xue Bai was taking a bath in the barrel when he found Qing Lan poking her head from behind the screen.

"what happened?"

"Is Lang Jun's water cold?"

"No."

After doing this twice and three times, he felt that the maid was not very honest.But when he was really about to stand up, he raised his hand, but she blushed suddenly, turned around and ran away.

"Lang Jun is shameless..."

After a while, Xue Bai put on his spring shirt, and Qing Lan came in holding the gown. She had regained her composure, her eyes were bright, and she didn't know what she was happy about.

"Huh? I didn't see the sachet that Mrs. Guo Guo gave me last time when I was packing my luggage."

"That spice is very precious, I put it in a box, otherwise the fragrance will go away."

Qing Lan turned around and went to get the sachet and hung it up for Xue Bai.

She also understood where he was going today, so she couldn't help but whispered: "Your Majesty, be careful when you go out, she doesn't have a very good reputation."

"Well, I'll be careful."

After tidying up, Xue Bai went out of the room.

Du Wulang built a ladder and was building a nest for the magpies in the front yard, still humming softly.

"Wei magpie has a nest, and Wei Jiu lives in it. The son goes to Gui, and a hundred liang guards him. Wei magpie has a nest, and Wei Jiu squares it. The son goes to Gui, and a hundred liang of generals..."

"What does this poem mean?"

"It's just a magpie building a nest. Someone is getting married. The motorcade is here to meet her." Du Wulang got off the ladder, "Don't you even understand this?"

"I don't know who is going to get married?"

"Oh." Du Wulang sighed inexplicably, and asked, "Why did you let me wait for you to go out together, and where are you going?"

"Redemption." Xue Bai said: "You can do me a few small favors, today looks dangerous, but in fact nothing will happen..."

The two discussed in low voices for a while, and went out together.

~~
Xuanyangfang, Mrs. Guo's Mansion.

Yang Yuyao has become increasingly unhappy recently.

Although the life experience she found for Xue Bai was not very good, but the favor was entrusted after all.In the end, there was no thank you, and he kept procrastinating on not coming to visit.

"Tell the concierge not to let Xue Bai come in again. He really thinks he's got a lot, I'm not curious..."

After such an arrangement, Yang Yuyao felt much happier, thinking that there would only be holidays between each other in the future, and there was no need to look forward to him anymore.

But the maid hadn't gone far, the porter came to report that Xue Bai had been sitting in the teahouse outside the mansion for a long time.

Yang Yuyao couldn't help being curious again, and finally couldn't hold back, and decided to go out to see him in person.

After the Shangyuan period is the rain solar term. The clouds in the sky are heavy today, and it seems that it will rain again, but the willows in Chang'an Street are sprouting, and the spring scene is just right.

In the tea shop at Shizijiekou in Xuanyangfang, two teenagers were sitting and tasting tea. One of them had a big face, small eyes and a dull face, which made the one next to him even more graceful.

Xue Bai just turned around and saw Yang Yuyao, got up and walked this way.

"I've seen Yaoniang."

Yang Yuyao took a look at him, put on a superior posture, and said lightly: "I see, you seem to have grown taller."

It has only been a few days since Shangyuan, even if he has grown taller, it is not visible to the naked eye, so it is nothing more than she pointing at him again.

"It's because I haven't seen Yaoniang for a long time." Xue Bai immediately caught the point and responded following her topic.

"Heh, I tried my best to help you, but I didn't even say thank you."

"I've wanted to thank you for a long time, but something happened."

"I don't know if something happened and ask me for help." Yang Yuyao said displeased: "I think you are very stupid."

"Human affection is precious, if you owe Yaoniang too much, I will not be able to pay it back."

"Do you want to pay it back?"

Speaking of this, Yang Yuyao saw Xue Bai's serious face, and suddenly felt that she understood him a little bit.

"I can solve this matter." Xue Bai said: "I wanted to come to see you today, but when I learned that Xue Ling's creditor asked me to meet at Qingmen, I will deal with this matter before coming back, that's good."

Yang Yuyao said: "I will go with you."

"Okay, but if you see that I don't have enough money, don't make a move. Let me talk to the other party."

"Look at what you said, my concubine is also very poor." Yang Yuyao smiled slightly, feeling better for no reason.

Xue Bai discussed with her again, asking her not to bring the luxury car, and changing the guards into ordinary attire, so as not to scare away the casino owner and ruin Xue Ling's life.

A group of people set off, and Du Wulang followed behind, chatting with the guards of Mrs. Guo's mansion, first asking where their hometown is, and then chatting more and more speculatively...

~~
It was the busiest time for Qingmen when the time was near.

Kangjia Restaurant, private room on the third floor.

Daxi Yingying didn't have any fried tea today, but only a few light snacks.

"Lady, Xue Bai has come this way, and this time he really came."

"Sure enough, he pretended to be a filial son, and came here only after being exposed."

Daxi Yingying tasted the pastry here, but it was not tasty, picked up a boiled egg, but found it was too hot, so she had to put it back on the table.

Looking back, Shi Zhong had brought Xue Ling in.

The bruises on Xue Ling's face disappeared a little, and Daxi Yingying immediately ordered someone to beat him up again, and she was satisfied only after seeing the horror.

"Xue Ling, do you know what to do when you go back?"

"I know." Xue Ling lost his previous arrogance after being beaten, kowtowed and said, "I must find out who raised Xue Bai these years."

"Okay, when you find out, you can come to my casino to gamble again." Daxi Yingying said consciously and funny, covered her mouth with a smile, and became more and more charming.

"Don't worry, lady, as long as you let me go, I will find out."

Daxi Yingying waved her hand, and the guards of the casino dragged Xue Ling down to the lobby, waiting for Xue Bai to redeem her.

She then ordered Shi Zhong: "Go down and watch, give the horse a blow first, when the situation is almost the same, then bring Xue Bai up, I'll sell him..."

~~
On the third floor, in the private room opposite, Pei Mian was standing behind the curtain looking out.

From his perspective, he could just see the Ruyi Hall on the second floor.

There are three women and three children in the Ruyi hall, namely Jiang Mao's wife and children, Jiang Hai's wife and daughter, and Lao Liang's younger sister, and they are watched by four servants in Tsing Yi.

In addition, Pei Mian arranged a lot of people in Kang's restaurant and near Qingmen Street.

This time he didn't bring Longyou soldiers, let alone any weapons, just some servants and rangers were enough.What to do is also very simple, put them back to Lao Liang and Jiang Hai's family; track them down; find another opportunity to silence them.

The only thing he didn't understand was why Xue Bai made such a foolish move?Originally, the witness was well hidden, but Donggong played the game of rats, and instead acted rashly, allowing him to seize the opportunity.

It can only be said that cleverness is misunderstood by cleverness. Xue Bai thinks he is clever, and always likes to fish in troubled waters, but he doesn't know that the real strategy should follow the current, and simple follow-up can solve the problem.

"coming."

Pei Mian has already seen Xue Bai walking side by side with a beautiful woman.

He didn't like beauty, and when he saw the beautiful woman covering her face with a light veil, he speculated that it was the second wife of the Du family. Later, Du Wulang rode a horse and held a box with one hand, which contained money for repaying the debt.

Afterwards, Pei Mian fixed his eyes and realized that there were some strong men around them...

~~
Just as Xue Bai walked into Kang's restaurant, a drinker happened to bump into him, and there was an extra piece of writing paper in his hand.

It was given by Pei Mian, only the words "Ruyi Hall on the second floor".

Xue Bai then took the wooden box containing the money from Du Wulang, and at the same time handed the note to Du Wulang.

"I'll redeem someone first, you go..."

"Liulang, save me!"

Xue Bai turned his head and saw Xue Ling was thrown in the lobby with his hands and feet tied.

A few big men in black who looked like casino guards sat there, and asked loudly: "Xue Bai, have you brought the money for your grandpa's debt?"

"Bring these."

Xue Bai put the box on a table and opened it, revealing a lot of copper coins.

"Not enough, Xue Ling owes our proprietor five thousand guan, how much do you have?"

"I'm still collecting money, can you give me a little more time?"

"..."

Du Wulang glanced at the note while no one was paying attention, walked up the stairs to the second floor with his head shrunk, and knocked on the door of Ruyi Hall.

"Who?"

"I'll pick you up."

Someone opened the door, and four big men in green clothes stood there.

"The little fat man is here to pick him up, do you recognize him?"

"It's good that you didn't lie to anyone." Du Wulang said, "I took him away."

A big man in Tsing Yi grinned and said, "I just lied to you, how about it?"

Du Wulang was taken aback.

The big men in Tsing Yi laughed, took the six women and children out of the box, stood on the railing and looked into the lobby.

~~
The elegant room on the third floor.

A confidant of Pei Mian was standing by the window watching the passers-by on the street when he suddenly received a message.

Then he turned his head and said to Pei Mian: "Ah Lang, Lao Liang and Jiang Hai are really here."

"Don't act rashly, just give them people and follow closely."

"Here."

Soon, Du Wulang took the women and children to the lobby downstairs.

Pei Mian was still watching, when he suddenly saw a very charming woman walking out of the private room opposite.

Daxi Yingying walked to the railing and gestured to Shi Zhong downstairs, indicating that he would bring Xue Bai up when he was almost there.She also saw Du Wulang leading people downstairs, she was a little strange, and when she looked up again, she saw the curtain of the private room on the opposite side moving slightly, which made her even more strange.

In the lobby of the restaurant, Jiang Hai and Lao Liang couldn't help but look at Xue Bai with admiration when they saw their family came down from ear to ear, and hurried forward to protect the family.

Du Wulang walked away calmly.

Jiang Hai and Lao Liang didn't leave, and stood there with their families to watch the fun.

In the private room on the third floor, Pei Mian saw this scene, and then thought of the man Xue Bai brought, he immediately reacted, and ordered: "They must create chaos before fleeing..."

Pei Mian's confidant immediately gestured to the hidden pile on the street.

In the lobby, Xue Bai was still bargaining with the black-clothed guards of the casino, looking like a dutiful son who wanted to save his father but lacked financial resources.

"You can take the money first, as long as you make sure it doesn't hurt his life."

"Why don't you sell Fengweilou to me? I'll partner with that beautiful Mrs. Guoguo, hahaha!"

Yang Yuyao dared to mention her when she saw such a vicious person, she couldn't help being furious, she stood up and wanted to shout.

Shi Zhong was still walking forward, crossing his hands to salute Xue Bai as he walked, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be Mr. Xue Lang, the villain came back from other places with the head of the family..."

suddenly.

A masked alcoholic walked up behind the casino guards, stretched out his hand, grabbed a casino guard by the hair, and slammed his head on the table!

"Oh!"

The table was smashed in two.

The masked drinker raised his foot and kicked another table, and the box full of copper coins flew out, and the coins "crashed" all over the floor, inside and outside the restaurant.

Many spectators gathered around, and immediately rushed forward to pick up money.

"mine."

"It's my money..."

"Brother Xue! My brother is here to save you!"

The masked drinker shouted, took the opportunity to lift Xue Ling, and rushed to the back door.

The casino guards were furious and wanted to chase him immediately.

Jiang Hai grinned, and suddenly stretched out his hand, grabbed two casino guards, smashed their heads together, blocking the passage to the back door intentionally or unintentionally.

"Boom."

Lao Liang laughed loudly, but he didn't run away, he carried a table to protect his family.

"Don't let him run away, take it directly!"

Four big men in green clothes ran down from the second floor and rushed straight at Jiang Hai.In the restaurant and on the street, there are more than 20 people from Pei Mian rushing forward.

"Stop them! They want to assassinate Mrs. Guo..."

Du Wulang took the opportunity to climb onto the counter and ordered the guards of Mrs. Guo's Mansion to meet Pei Mian's men.

All this happened in an instant, and the parties did not even have time to distinguish who was who.

In the blink of an eye, it was chaotic.

Yang Yuyao just stood up, when there was a loud noise in front of her eyes, and sawdust piled up.

She backed away in fright, nearly falling over.

In the chaos, someone reached out and hugged her tightly.

She looked up, and what she saw was Xue Bai's calm, fearless eyes.

"Walk."

Xue Bai had put his arms around her waist to help her up, held her hand, and ran to the backyard protecting her.

Ahead, Jiang Hai was fighting with a big man in Tsing Yi.

"Oh!"

The moment the big man in green was knocked to the ground with two punches, Xue Bai rushed past them with Yang Yuyao in his arms.

Someone came after him again, Jiang Hai picked up a wine jar and slapped him hard on the head, blocking the passage again...

~~
After exiting the back door of Kang's Restaurant, there was an alley in front of him. The masked drunk had beaten up many people and disappeared with Xue Ling.

More casino guards came after them.

"Don't run!"

Xue Bai took Yang Yuyao's hand and ran for a long distance.

"I...I can't run anymore..."

Yang Yuyao pulled Xue Bai to stop, panting continuously, and everyone leaned in his arms.

"I still have to go."

Xue Bai couldn't help saying, picked up her legs, and hugged her across the waist.

Yang Yuyao let out a soft cry. She felt that she had long legs and big chest, so she was not light. She didn't expect him to have such strength, so she buried her head on his shoulder, and finally calmed down amidst the panic.

This time he didn't run very far, Xue Bai turned around the corner of the alley, pushed open an open door, carried her into a small courtyard, and put her down.

"Where is this?"

"I don't know, we hide."

There was no one in the small courtyard, the two bolted the courtyard door, carefully walked through the path of flowers and trees, found a servant room that looked like no one had lived in it for a long time, sneaked in, and sat down together in the corner.

Yang Yuyao managed to calm down, recalling the scene just now, she actually laughed softly, although her voice was soft, her charm was not diminished.

Xue Bai turned his head to look, and saw that she was sweating a little, and her fair face was flushed, which made her smile even more charming.

The two looked at each other.

Yang Yuyao immediately thought of Xue Bai kissing Yang Shenjin on the forehead outside Fengwei Building and in her tin car before the New Year's Eve, after Xue Bai said he did not want to recognize Yang Shenjin as his father.

She always remembered the tenderness at that time...

Memories flashed in his mind, and the next moment, Xue Bai turned over and looked down at her.

During the run just now, her gorgeous cloak had fallen off, revealing her proud figure.

Yang Yuyao didn't say anything like "You come to serve me", she let out a long snort, stretched out her hand, and wrapped her arms around his neck.

The unfamiliar environment and the fear of danger made her feel uneasy, but it also made her more willing to rely on the man in front of her.

She was still quite arrogant, and murmured in the gap.

"Come on, my sister will teach you..."

~~
Daxi Yingying cracked open the egg, and a piece of eggshell fell off, revealing the crystal clear white inside.

In order to suppress the restlessness in her heart, she patiently peeled it little by little, and finally peeled it off completely, holding it in her hand, it was a little warm.

She opened her mouth and was about to eat when someone hurried over.

"Miss."

Da Xi Yingying stopped, took the newly peeled egg back and played with it, and asked, "Did you catch it?"

"Lost...lost..."

Daxi Yingying frowned, she didn't understand why Xue Bai was so strong, she would rather fight to snatch her than owe her a favor.

"lost?"

~~
Xue Bai actually didn't like Yang Yuyao's phrase "you come and serve me" at that time, so he worked hard every day since January.

He would squat with a heavy stone in his arms, feel his thighs swell and numb, his muscles seemed to be pulled apart, and the sweat would flow out, and then flow down his face, dripping down.

"despair."

"despair."

Sweat dripped on the black hair.

Yang Yuyao turned her head to the side, but her face was even redder than before.

She was originally the lofty and invincible Mrs. Guo Guo, but now she is like a flower that cannot bear the spring rain.

~~
Kang's restaurant.

The ground is full of people who are moaning and rolling around.

Pei Mian frowned, left the private room, walked around the railing, and observed the situation in the lobby.

What surprised him the most was that Lao Liang and Jiang Hai just stood there as if nothing had happened, not escaping at all, and soon his men were able to catch them... just silence them, and try to settle the case with a drunken fight.

suddenly.

"Who assassinated Mrs. Guo?!"

Following this loud roar, a team of Jinwu Guards arrived, and a general entered the hall with a knife, roaring.

"General Guo."

Du Wulang raised his finger and shouted: "Those people are murderers who want to assassinate Mrs. Guo... Also, it is these two heroes who protected Mrs. Guo!"

Pei Mian opened his mouth, but was speechless for a while.

Today he has done thousands of calculations, but he only missed the woman next to Xue Bai.

Only now did he realize that Xue Bai's plan was actually very simple, he wanted to go back to Lao Liang and Jiang Hai's family members, and hide them in Mrs. Guo's mansion for protection, that's all.

Xue Bai was not afraid that he would send someone to follow him, Dong Gong didn't dare to turn against his third aunt Yang at all.

Pei Mian knew that the only thing he could do right now was to get everyone to deny the assassination of Mrs. Guo. This was just an ordinary drunken brawl and it couldn't be a major case.

"Damn."

He cursed softly, and then suddenly thought of what Xue Bai said, "We can cooperate with the East Palace", and couldn't help but feel more at a loss.

"Xue Bai, how can you be so sure that Aunt Yang can trust you and protect you? Are you really colluding?"

~~
It's still raining.

This is a rainy solar term, even the name is called rain.

In the courtyard, a flower swayed in the wind and rain, looking quite pitiful.

It is "the horizontal bridge of the Qingyin Pool Hall, where it is raining and fancy, and the place is very delicate in the slight cold."

……

As the sky darkened little by little, Chang'an's evening drum sounded again.

In the hut, two runners were still panting.

"Can you still walk?"

"No," Yang Yuyao blushed, and said, "I have no strength..."

"Then take a rest before leaving." Xue Bai also tried his best, dripping with sweat.

"You." Yang Yuyao frowned after resting, and said in a very dissatisfied tone: "The former dared to pretend to be tender in front of me, but there were many women."

"What? You think I'm dirty?"

Xue Bai stopped stroking her hair, stood up, and put on his clothes.

Yang Yuyao said: "I didn't say that..."

"I'm not your face-to-face. I have my own ambitions. It's impossible for me to coax you into your house every day."

Looking at his back, Yang Yuyao felt arrogance in her heart. She was angry and unwilling to give up. When she finally saw that he was about to get up, she still couldn't help stretching her legs around his waist and pulling him back.

"When did you say you were my face? I'm afraid people don't know you are arrogant? Come to my house, I have something to tell you."

"Is something really wrong?"

Yang Yuyao smiled and said, "Do you know that those people today are not here for you?"

"Ok?"

"It's not just for you to mobilize so many people? That woman has always been against me."

"Do you know who it is?"

Yang Yuyao smiled mysteriously, and said: "You go to my house, I will tell you..."

~~
Even though the sound of the drum had stopped, there were still people walking around the Qingmen Gate.

Jiang Hai and Lao Liang looked up at the private room of the restaurant, grinning and showing their teeth.They knew that Pei Mian was there, and they had no scruples, and they dared to risk their lives for revenge at any time;

Guo Qianli sent people to escort the two martyrs who rescued Mrs. Guo and their family members to Mrs. Guo's mansion. He himself was going to find Mrs. Guo. He knew Xue Langjun would give him a credit;
A carriage left Chunming Gate before the city gate was closed, and when it reached the fork in the official road, Tian Shengong carried Xue Ling and threw it to the two old farmers waiting there, telling him not to kill him, he knew that Lang Jun didn't have time filial piety;

The Fengwei Building was closed, and the Du family siblings didn't have time to rush back to Du's residence.Du Jin boarded the small pavilion, looked at the flames at the green gate, and held her head up proudly. Today, all of this was arranged by her alone. Although she was still very unhappy about one thing, she knew that there was no protection from the sisters of the Yang family. , they can still be dangerous.

But one day, they don't need shelter...

 Recently, the relationship line has just ended, and I am a little presumptuous, and I will restrain myself a little later... Please ask for a monthly ticket, please subscribe~~
