20 years of the Republic of China

Chapter 179
Under Hu Xiaoyan's careful training, Si Fengkou always knew and repaid her sister-in-law.

Xiao Xifeng was entrenched in Xiaoxiguan, originally to inquire about the situation in "Huifangli" and "Heshengfang", but now he heard clues from Xiao Shitou's words, so he immediately took him overnight to report the situation to his sister-in-law.

Walking out of the city gate along the street, passing through the commercial port, there are lights all the way, and you go straight to the vicinity of the Southern Railway Annex.

Arriving at the photo studio, Xiao Xifeng stepped forward and knocked on the door.

After a while, Ichiro Nakamura stuck his head out and couldn't help but frown.

"What's the matter? It's so late. If you want to eat sweets, come back tomorrow morning!"

"I'm looking for my sister-in-law!" Xiao Xifeng said hurriedly, "Well, it's Hu Xiaoyan and Xiaohua who live upstairs. You can help call her down."

Before Ichiro Nakamura could speak, Xiaohua's figure appeared at the entrance of the stairs. He bent down and glanced down, and immediately said with joy: "Is it Brother Xiaoshuan? Oh, are you really here?"

The two of them had been friends since childhood, but after becoming friends with Jiang Xiaodao, they each had their own division of labor, and the time they spent hanging out with each other gradually became less and less.

When Xiao Xifeng saw Xiao Hua, he quickly grinned and said with a smile: "It's not me! Sister-in-law is not sleeping, is she? Call her for me. I'll see her if I have something to do."

"It's only a few o'clock to go to bed. Just wait for a while and I'll go up and call her."

Seeing how anxious he was, Xiaohua immediately turned back and went upstairs to report.

After all, Ichiro Nakamura accepted the money from Jiang Xiaodao, and he was quite polite. He invited the two of them into the house sideways, but Xiao Xifeng declined and refused to agree - this was a rule specially ordered by his sister-in-law.

After a while, Hu Xiaoyan lay on Xiaohua's back and slowly came downstairs.

"Nakamura, I'm so sorry to disturb you so late."

Hu Xiaoyan apologized first.

Nakamura didn't care, and waved his hand quickly: "It doesn't matter, as we said, we are friends. Besides, I didn't go to bed at this time, so you guys, please take your time, I went upstairs."

Hu Xiaoyan then sat down on the threshold - don't ask, just listen.

Xiao Xifeng opened his mouth and introduced him first: "Sister-in-law, this is my new brother."

After that, he pushed Xiao Shitou behind again and urged in a low voice: "Hey, you damn thing, what are you doing standing there in a daze? I taught you just now, call me sister-in-law!"

It's not that Xiao Shitou is ignorant, but as soon as Hu Xiaoyan appeared, his mind was attracted by the empty skirt - it turned out that the so-called sister-in-law was actually disabled - it wasn't until Xiao Xifeng pushed him that he looked back God comes and calls people in a low voice.

"Hello, sister-in-law, my name is Xiao Shitou."

Hu Xiaoyan was not angry, she just smiled in response. After a quick glance, she immediately saw that Xiao Shitou had just entered the "important door" not long ago.

"You just came out not long ago, right? It's a cold day, so you need to wear more clothes! It's the first time we meet, so I don't have much preparation. I'll give you this little change so that Xiao Xifeng can take the time to take you to buy thicker clothes. If you go out in the future, If you can’t eat, come to me anytime.”

"thanks, thanks!"

Give money when you meet.

Xiao Shitou was so happy that he quickly bowed his head and saluted, feeling thankful that he had finally found the organization.

Hu Xiaoyan rewarded him, and Xiao Xifeng also felt that he had gained face, so he immediately took over the conversation and told the story of Han Ce's appearance in "Huifangli" just now.

After finishing all the errands that should be done, I finally added the news about Zhao Lingchun that I heard from Xiao Shitou.

How sharp is Hu Xiaoyan’s mind?
I didn't care at first, but after listening to it briefly, my expression suddenly became stern.

"Little Shitou, when did that girl from Huifangli give you a piece of the ocean?"

"Uh... before the Mid-Autumn Festival, I can't remember the details."

"where?"

Xiao Shitou pointed to the city: "In the northwest of the city, there is a big white house, which looks like a foreigner's house, nearby."

The Bai family mansion.

Hu Xiaoyan nodded slightly, remembering the scene when she saw Zhao Lingchun in "Huifangli" on the night of the kiln smashing, she had already guessed five points.

"Have you met that girl since then?" "No...no, never seen her again."

Xiao Shitou suddenly hesitated.

Not only because he had promised to keep it secret before, but also because Hu Xiaoyan's aggressive demeanor gave him a hunch that his words might be detrimental to Zhao Lingchun.

But how can a teenager hide anything in his eyes?

Covering up, but trying to cover up.

Hu Xiaoyan looked suspicious. Although she didn't ask any more questions, she had already guessed at least sixty-seven points.

But how can we get away with this matter?

There are four outlets in the dark hall, each with its own temper.

The west wind is strong.

Hu Xiaoyan saw through but didn't tell Xiao Xifeng, but Xiao Xifeng couldn't bear it - the people he brought with him were tantamount to humiliating him in front of his sister-in-law - so he raised his hand and slapped Xiao Shitou on the head and cursed loudly.

"Little Shitou, I'm kind enough to help you out and help you get married. Why are you still hiding your secrets? You don't know how to appreciate me!"

Xiao Shitou is so young that he can't help but be frightened.

Moreover, he knew that Xiao Xifeng had a gun, and he thought that the sister-in-law in front of him was not easy to mess with, so he immediately knelt down and begged for mercy.

"No, no, no, sister-in-law, I was wrong! We did meet her later, but...but there was nothing else to do. She just gave me some small money and asked me to run errands for her and buy some rouge, gouache, etc. It’s just something.”

Having said that, Xiao Shitou didn't know that the news had already been reported to the Bai family on that errand route.

"When was the last time you ran errands for her?" Hu Xiaoyan asked.

"This... I really can't remember it."

"Can't remember? That means it was at least a long time ago?"

"Ah, yes, that's true."

"Was it the night there were gunshots?"

Xiao Shitou was startled and shook his head quickly: "No... not very clear."

Xiao Xifeng glared at the side: "Isn't it clear what it means? Think! Think carefully!"

However, Hu Xiaoyan raised her hand to stop her, with a gentle smile on her face, and she had already guessed it in her heart.

The little stone's reaction was the answer.

"Okay, okay, stop scaring him."

After that, she gently touched Xiao Shitou's head again and said with a smile: "Don't be afraid. My sister-in-law still said the same thing. If you have nothing to do in the future, you can come to me at any time."

Xiao Shitou was relieved and replied repeatedly: "Thank you, sister-in-law, thank you, sister-in-law!"

Hu Xiaoyan straightened up, and the smile on her face disappeared instantly.

"Xiao Xifeng, go to the North Tower and call your elder brother."

"Ah? Now, now? At this time?"

"Immediately." Hu Xiaoyan said decisively, "By the way, Xiao Shitou is young, so you should take more care of him. You must always take him with you to avoid being bullied when wandering on the street."

Xiao Xifeng immediately understood and said, "I understand, sister-in-law, I'll go find Brother Dao right now!"
