20 years of the Republic of China

Chapter 205
To the east of Fengtian City, the north wind is howling.

Guan Wei walked in front with a sullen expression. From time to time he turned back to urge Gong Baonan and asked, "Hey, Lao Qi, what do you think?"

Gong Baonan deliberately slowed down, hid behind Lao Liu, avoiding the wind, and asked, "What are you looking at?"

"Tsk! Bai family, otherwise, what else can we see?"

"The house is quite big, and the frozen pears are quite sweet."

"You're so damn poor!" Guan Wei took two steps to the side, "What are we doing? Do you think the Bai family is still a threat?"

"Don't move, don't move!" Gong Baonan continued to hide behind Lao Liu to avoid the wind, "It's an obvious situation, do you still need me to look at it?"

The Bai family is now in trouble internally and externally. They have to guard against Zhou Yunfu and Jiang Xiaodao externally, and deal with real estate and business in Fengtian. At the same time, even if they have a dog at home, they can see that their entire family is falling apart from within.

"That's true." Guan Wei recalled the situation just now, "But didn't you see it too? The concubines of the Bai family can't afford the trouble, but if they don't stop, the descendants of the Bai family... …”

Gong Baonan shook his head disdainfully: "Pull them down! Just those old ladies, even if we leave them alone, they can still defeat the Bai family."

"But that young aunt, she is not an ordinary person, her daughter..."

"Their family is about to leave Fengtian, settle down in a new place, and live a peaceful life for more than ten years. By then, how can they still have the leisure to come back for revenge? It's not like they have been hanging around under their noses."

This is true.

Success or failure turned empty.

The deceased is long gone, and the desire for revenge has a time limit. When it is close, it becomes stronger; when it is far away, there are obstacles - both time and distance.

Li'er was this Li'er, but in Lao Liu's ears, he heard another meaning.

Guan Wei suddenly stopped, turned around, and asked: "Old Qi, are you sick again?"

"Inexplicable!" Gong Baonan hurried past Lao Liu and muttered, "You must let me tell you, and I told you, you are talking a lot of nonsense again!"

As he walked, he suddenly felt a little itchy and scratchy on his back.

That's the old injury on the back causing trouble...

Seeing that Lao Qi didn't look back, Guan Wei hurriedly followed him and said, "Why are you turning your back faster than flipping through a book? Now that the trail has a chance to climb up, we uncles shouldn't help him. Do you have any ideas?"

"Xiaowei!"

"Hey, tell me - wait a minute! Good guy, you don't even call me by your first name now, you call me Xiaowei instead, right?"

Gong Baonan still didn't look back: "Let me have a serious word with you."

"Hey! Then I have to listen carefully. Teacher Gong, if you have any teachings, please tell me quickly." Guan Wei deliberately teased.

Gong Baonan rarely quarreled with him, but simply said calmly: "From now on, you'd better try to speak less about your uncle's seniority."

Guan Wei was stunned for a moment, stopped, and then asked: "If I'm not his uncle, then who am I? Besides, I don't often talk about seniority! Do I have one? No!"

Gong Baonan didn't bother to argue with him, and just walked forward on his own.

Guan Wei quickly caught up: "Hey, Lao Qi, seriously, do I have it? I really don't think so!"

…………

Half an hour later, a secret house in the east of the city.

Guan Wei and Gong Baonan pushed open the door and were about to enter the house when they saw a blue carriage parked at the door of the main house. Zhao Guoyan, Zhong Yushan and others were busy carrying bedding and household items.

"Hey, what are you doing?" Guan Wei stepped forward and asked hurriedly, "What do you mean? Where are you going?"

Zhong Yushan put down the quilt in his arms and explained: "Sixth Master, Brother Dao said that there are too many people here and it is crowded, so I asked a few people to move back to the old house."

"Who is going?" Guan Wei asked.

"Oh, Li Zheng and the other five, plus Zhao Guoyan, the rest are still living here."

When Gong Baonan heard this, he immediately understood the intention.

This was intended to separate Li Zheng and the other beards and prevent them from getting too close together to prevent them from gathering in one place and not changing their bandit nature and not acting in accordance with orders.

Xiaodao may not have this intention, it was probably Hu Xiaoyan's idea.

Unlike Lao Qi, Guan Wei had his own house, so he said, "Otherwise, I might as well go home."

Zhong Yushan quickly dissuaded him and said, "No, Brother Dao said that he will let you over in a while to ask about the situation of the Bai family. The car will be loaded up soon. You can go with Guo Yan later."

"Hey! This little brat has learned how to boss around his uncle."

Guan Wei was not really dissatisfied. He just felt happy and joked a few words. Then he sat down on the car and said, "Let's go, Lao Qi."

"I let you go, but you didn't let me go."

Gong Baonan ignored this, scratched his back, and walked into the room on his own. Judging from the posture, he should have to rest for a while.

Guan Wei frowned, looked at Zhong Yushan, and asked, "Just let me go alone?"

Zhong Yushan shrugged and said helplessly: "I don't know, anyway, he did not mention Qi Ye."

After saying that, everyone got busy with the work at hand.

A few minutes later, the bedding was all packed, and Zhao Guoyan caught up with the blue-capped carriage, left the house, and headed towards the Jiang family's old house.

…………

Speechless all the way.

It was freezing cold, and Guan Wei couldn't hold back enough. As soon as he arrived at the door of the old house, he immediately jumped out of the carriage, untied the belt of his cotton trousers, and hurried to the latrine of the house.

However, as soon as he entered the gate, Guan Wei couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

I saw that the house where people used to laugh and fight was now full of unfamiliar faces.

There was Han Xinyuan, a few thugs sent by the Su family to help, Si Fengkou who had grown up, and several half-grown little ones.It's just that there are no longer eldest brother, second brother, third brother, fourth brother, and the former fifth brother...

For a brief moment, Guan Wei even suspected that he had entered the wrong house.

Things are different and people are different - that's probably what it feels like.

"Master Six!"

Everyone greeted him politely, but they made him feel more and more strange.

"Hey, you're here?" Guan Wei replied a little awkwardly, "Um... where is the latrine?"

Xiao Nanfeng pointed to the northwest corner of the yard and said, "Uncle Six, where is it? You don't know?"

Guan Wei came back to his senses, and even he shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Yes, yes, yes, I know! How can I not know? I used to come here often."

After the convenience, I felt a lot more relaxed.

Guan Wei put on his pants, walked out of the hut, looked up again, and finally saw an acquaintance.

At the door of the main room, Hu Xiaoyan was wearing a goose-yellow cotton-padded jacket, sitting upright on a wooden wheelchair, with her hands tucked into white rabbit velvet sleeves, while Xiaohua stood behind her as usual.

"Uncle Six, are you back? Come inside and warm yourself up." Hu Xiaoyan greeted warmly with a smile in her eyes.

Unknowingly, her behavior, expression, and way of speaking - although it was only a vague prototype, she already had the demeanor of a third-level mistress.

But Uncle Six seemed to have become a guest.

"Hey, Xiaoyan, I haven't seen you in a while." Guan Wei quickly walked closer, "Hey! These sleeves are really nice, they feel warm just looking at them."

Hu Xiaoyan raised her head and smiled, her eyes shining: "Xiaodao bought it for me."

"Huh!"

Guan Wei was surprised and immediately laughed loudly and said: "Okay, this kid has made progress! Xiaoyan, do you still remember that when you two first came to Fengtian, I sent you to Lao Cui's house, where On the kang, this kid can make you cry with anger in just a few words. Now it’s better, he’s learned to love his wife! Hahahaha!”

As Guan Wei said this, he turned around and looked at the people in the yard, his eyes vaguely expecting everyone to have fun with him.

After all, whenever Xiaodao's scandalous events in his childhood were mentioned, someone would always burst into laughter.

However, now no one agrees.

Guan Wei's laughter naturally became drier and dryer.

Only Hu Xiaoyan was willing to laugh lightly to prevent Uncle Six from being too embarrassed.

"It happened many years ago, I can't even remember it."

"Yes, yes. It's almost ten years since I saw it." Guan Wei suddenly sighed, "By the way, where is the trail?"

"I'm waiting for you inside! Come on, Uncle Six, come into the room and talk."

Xiaohua pushed Hu Xiaoyan into the east room, Guan Wei helped hold the door, and then he followed in.

In the room, Jiang Xiaodao was sitting cross-legged on the edge of the kang, with one hand on the kang table and the other holding a cigar. He tightened his sparse eyebrows and smoked, filling the room with smoke.

Guan Wei's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but smile: "Hey! You kid, you haven't accomplished your great work yet, but you have learned to enjoy it? Can you smoke me?"

Jiang Xiaodao put the cigar in front of his eyes and blew on the butt without even raising his head. He just said lazily: "Do you still remember? This was the gift you gave to my father. My father didn't know how to smoke. Later I Only then did I realize that I had to cut off my butt for this thing."

Guan Wei laughed and stretched out his hand to point out: "You, wild boar really can't eat fine chaff, I don't understand if you ask me! You have to dry-cook this thing, let it cook for a while..."

Jiang Xiaodao took the cigar back behind him, took two more puffs, and said, "I can smoke it however I like."

"Hey! You kid-"

"Uncle Six, ignore him!" Hu Xiaoyan hurriedly tried to persuade him, "You have forgotten, isn't he always like this!"

Guan Wei nodded with a frown on his face, thought for a moment, and then asked: "Xiaodao, did Mr. Zhang Jiu say anything?"

"No."

"Nothing at all about the movements of Zhou Yunfu and Han Ce?"

Jiang Xiaodao frowned and squinted his eyes, took two puffs of his cigar, and exhaled a puff of smoke: "No."

"Hey, this is a cigar, it can't be passed through the lungs!" Guan Wei asked again, "I really didn't expect that old boy Zhang Jiuye to be so strict. If you get any news from him, just tell me , Uncle Six will give you some advice. If you can become a rich man one day, Uncle Six will also have a bright face!"

Seeing Jiang Xiaodao smoking a cigar, Guan Wei asked Hu Xiaoyan, "What's wrong with him?"

Jiang Xiaodao was lying on the kang and replied quickly: "Xiaohua doesn't sleep with me, I'm so annoyed."

"Ah?" Xiaohua was clicked inexplicably, and her face turned red. "Young Master, no, Young Mistress...I..."

"Ignore him, he's started to get sick again recently."

After saying some words of relief to Xiao Hua, Hu Xiaoyan turned to look at Guan Wei and asked, "Uncle Six, how is the situation with the Bai family now? Please tell me in detail."

"Oh, you're talking about the Bai family!" Guan Wei sighed, "To be honest, the Bai family is really in trouble now, and it's only the young aunt and grandma who are holding it together. Xiaoyan, you didn't see that the aunts and wives in each room are It’s so noisy…”

Due to her limited mobility, Hu Xiaoyan listened very carefully and never forgot to ask about all kinds of unexpected details.

It's just that in this way, the conversation will inevitably be discontinuous and inconsistent.

"Let's talk about it later!"

When Uncle Six was talking about getting excited, Jiang Xiaodao lost his patience and suddenly stood up and interrupted: "You should go see my dad first."

"What?" Guan Wei was stunned for a moment and asked quickly: "Who are you looking at?"

Jiang Xiaodao turned over and got off the kang, put on his cotton boots, and repeated: "Go to the West Room to see my dad, your eldest brother."
