daily life

Chapter 67

Zhao He immediately replied: "I've been staying at Xia's house, and now I'm on my way back home." He and his subordinates will be very careful about everything that the fourth master tells us, and pass on news from time to time.

"Yeah." Xi Lang felt more at ease.

Zhao He picked up a chess piece, looked at Xi Lang, hesitant to speak.

"Say."

Zhao He said: "Xia Yichen is not simple. A few years ago, he suddenly emerged in the business field. The mere few years of his life are already not to be underestimated. I have never heard of his relationship with the Xiang family before. In your opinion, do you want to check? Find out about this person's life?"

"No need." Xi Lang thought, if Ah Zhi believed in people's temperament, she would have already become a puppet of the Xiang family. She was very close to the Xia couple in her words. From this point of view, the Xia couple must have treated her kindly out of sincerity. .

Zhao He said with a smile: "This subordinate is not suspicious, but I just think Xia Yichen is very interesting."

It's quite interesting——Xia Yichen really gave people the impression that he has means and has a lot of contacts, and some high-ranking officials are willing to open the door for him.Because of this, Xi Lang thinks that if Xia Yichen treats Ah Zhi kindly out of sincerity, he will be more reliable than the Xiang family.

Xia Yichen and his first wife, Fan Shi, now have a big family and a big business, but the family population is very simple, there are only the two of them. 26 At the age of seven, he has no children under his knees. The couple don't take it seriously, and enjoy the situation of being unfettered.

Xi Lang has heard of some such anecdotes. "It's my father-in-law's old friend, don't be rude." He said.

When Zhao He heard this, the word "Tuo Gu" flashed in his mind, and Gong Gong claimed it was.

While talking, he walked in the door with a smile, "Fourth Master, Mama Xin has come to deliver a message. The old lady invites you to Songhe Hall."

"Say I'm playing chess, I don't have time."

"Yes."

Zhao He guessed: "The Sixth Master didn't return home last night, and he hasn't returned until now. The old lady thought too much."

Xi Lang asked, "Where did he go?" "

"I went to drink flower wine, but the place is relatively secret, and I lied to the second lady before I went out." Zhao He shook his head as he spoke, "It looks like he is determined to live a few days of carefree life, the two servants Almost lost."

Xi Lang laughed.

"I don't understand how the old lady and the second lady raised the sixth master to be the second ancestor." Zhao He was half confused and half funny, and asked again, "If the sixth master wasn't like this, you wouldn't bother to pay attention to him, would you?"

Xi Lang nodded, "I have no dignity, and he regards me as an enemy. If he becomes an official, it will be strange if he doesn't jump up and down to smear me. If he can avoid it, then he will."

Zhao He smiled and asked again: "You haven't told the Elder Master about this, have you?"

Xi Lang asked back: "If you don't tell him, can't he think of it?"

"...That's true." How could a person like the Eldest Master, who had exhausted all his tricks, not think of this.Knowing this, but wanting fourth master to let sixth master go, it's not because of other ideas, but because of his own good reputation.When Zhao He thought about these things, he was in a lawsuit.With anger in his heart, he lost his game of chess, and within a few moves, he saw that he was on the verge of defeat.

Xi Lang frowned slightly, "Can't you concentrate?"

Zhao He got up and ran away, "I've tried my best these two times, but I can't beat you. There are still things outside, so I won't make a fool of myself."

"You bastard." Xi Lang reprimanded lightly, it was worse than not paying attention halfway.

Zhao Hecai didn't care, and went out with a smile.

Xi Lang walked down the ground.The weather has been the same for the past two days, gloomy, with occasional drops of rain, and his wounds have always been sharp or dull pains.If you don't move for a while, the joints seem to be rusted.

After walking around for a while, he stood in front of the chess game, playing against himself, step by step turning Zhao He's defeat into an even match.Unknowingly, it took a while to kill, and then I realized that this game may only be a draw.

Hearing the sound of Xiangzhi's fine footsteps approaching, he turned his head and looked over.

She has taken off her cloak, revealing a water-red dress, holding a boxwood box in both hands, her eyes glowing with hope.

"Are you willing to come back?" He asked with a smile.
