In the evening, the bustling mutton alley during the day gradually became deserted. The snack stalls were gradually closed one after another. Although the shop had not put down the door panels to close, most of the shops had already started to clean up the shops or simply got lazy to wait for dinner. The dressing shop just turned into a small shop in the Nanxiufang just a month ago. Because Li Qingniang went out to deliver goods, Ruyi also went to an embroidery shop in the east that was about to close the door and business to recruit two embroidery girls. Now that they are not in the store, the door panels are naturally almost locked, and they are still half open for someone to buy things.

Chen Yue in the store had already lit the lamp. While packing up the embroidery on the shelves, she thought that Li Qingniang had reported the news first, saying that the Xiyuan reading was successful today, and she couldn't help but feel unconcealed joy on her face. She hummed a famous little song on a whim. She was humming with her back to the door, but suddenly she heard two coughs coming from outside. She hurriedly stopped and turned her head, but she heard a hoarse voice outside the door.

"Can you give me a drink?"

Chen Yue hesitated for a moment, and finally walked to the gate. He looked through the hollowed-out door panel on the fan. Seeing that it was a man with a loose head and a worn-out dress, she was a little surprised and walked up to him and asked, "Where are you from?"

"I'm from Jinling." The man didn't raise his head. Although his voice was hoarse, he was very quiet. "Girl, don't worry. I'm not asking for food and money. I just want a bowl of water to drink, and I'll leave after turning around."

"You are really a man. I was about to say, if you beg for food, there will be some leftovers in the kitchen at noon. I will ask you for a chance to help you. If you ask for money, I will see that your hands and feet are still convenient. A few days ago, someone else said that the second carriage and horse shop at the entrance of the alley is still missing. Since you want water, you can wait here first."

Seeing Chen Yue nodding with a smile, the man turned around and went inside. Unconsciously, he raised his head and stared at her back for a while. His disguised head slid down and he came out of an extremely ferocious and terrifying face. He didn't lower his head again until he heard the footsteps inside, until he handed a bowl out of it with one hand.

"Thank you, thank you girl."

Chen Yue saw that the man lowered his head to drink water, and originally planned to turn around and go in, but suddenly he stopped and turned his head to look at the figure for a while. After a long time, she realized that she felt something was wrong. Yiru is really a down-and-out passerby, and he is holding the bowl with both hands and drinking pain. He doesn't pay attention to anything else. However, this person held the bottom of the bowl with one hand, blew gently while siping, as if this was not the cold water I just scooped, but a cup of fragrant tea.

Thinking of this, she suddenly felt suspicious and couldn't help but tentatively: "You just said that you are from Jinling, where do you live?"

"I've been away from my hometown for many years, and I've long forgotten."

The man answered without raising his head, but then picked up the bowl and drank it in one breath and handed it back. When Chen Yue took the bowl, he suddenly saw a string of fragrant wood beads wrapped around the man's wrist, and he couldn't help but be stunned.

Seeing someone turning around and leaving, she suddenly blurted out instinctively: "Master Xu Er!"

As soon as the words finished, the man stopped immediately, and then said without looking back: "Miss, I recognized the wrong person!"

"If you weren't Mr. Xu, I told others that they had nothing to do with you, why would you stop?" Chen Yue saw this person doing this, and the more he thought about it, he felt suspicious and frightened. When he was about to go out, he remembered that Li Qingniang and Ruyi were afraid of running around. He didn't say it and locked it. Seeing that the man had walked a few more steps forward, she couldn't help but be anxious, "Master Xu, you left your family for so many years without saying a word, and you still want to leave now? Do you know how dangerous Xu Xun is at that time? Come back!"

Seeing that the man finally stopped, she felt relieved, and then she lowered her voice and said, "I recognize the string of fragrant wood beads in your hand. You said you carved it by yourself, a total of two strings. I gave me a string. I still keep it. The twelve zodiac signs engraved on it will not admit their mistakes. Mr. Xu, you have come, are you planning to say that you happened to meet me?"

"You girl, you are still as smart as you were back then." The man turned around and walked back slowly. When he arrived at the door, he suddenly pushed his head away. Seeing Chen Yue was shocked and took a step back. Then he said lightly, "When you see what I am now, do you still want me to stay?"

Chen Yue had never seen such a hideous face before, and at this time he didn't even know whether she was shocked or shocked. Although Xu Bian could not be said to be a peerless handsome man, he was also breeze = elegant and handsome, and was known as the most outstanding person in the generation of Xu in Taiping. However, at this time, Xu Bian not only looked dizzy, but his face had been completely ruined. If she hadn't recognized the string of beads, the other party was indeed suspicious of his behavior, how could he recognize someone?

After being stunned for a long time, she gritted her teeth and said, "No matter what you look like, you will still be Mr. Xu after all. He still has a lot of things to ask you. Only you know about those things, and of course you have to stay!"

"It's true that I'm the one I chose, so stubborn that I'm so stubborn." Xu Bian saw Chen Yue's face turned red at first, and then he was a little angry. Then he smiled and said, "Chen Guang has been smart for half his life... but he was confused and stupid at the critical moment. If it weren't for you, how could I let him go like a family friend who stabbed him at the critical moment? You're very good. There are people in this world who have three obediences and four virtues, but there are few people with courage and courage. You deserve him. At least, you won't repeat her mistakes..."

Chen Yue also knew that his father had done too much at the beginning. When she heard Mr. Xu criticizing his father like this, she couldn't help but bit her mouth. But when she heard the last two sentences, she felt something was wrong and immediately said stammeringly: "Mr. Xu, you...what do you mean..."

"In short, the most important thing about him is to be trusted by the prince. You don't have to worry about your little things. I'm leaving, I'm afraid that when you get married, I may not be able to see you. I'm here to see you today, and I want to say goodbye. You are a good person made by heaven and earth. You will only live your life well in the future. You should be filial to those who should be filial to you. Also, there is no need to tell him what I have been here today, without me, he will only walk the road in the future easier."

Chen Yue saw Mr. Xu turn around and leave, and hurriedly called out twice. This time, the other party ignored it and walked straight forward. In desperation, she didn't care about that much. She went back inside, picked up a ladder in the corner and put it on the wall, and climbed up with her skirt. When she reached the wall, she saw that the person had left a long distance, and was anxious and angry, until she looked east again. Seeing that it was Li Qingniang coming here, she hurriedly started: "Godmother, godmother!"

Seeing Chen Yue climbing the wall again, Li Qingniang was both annoyed and helpless. She rushed forward in three or two steps and was about to ask questions. When she saw Chen Yue pointing to the other side and said, "Godmother, go and chase that person quickly!"

Although she couldn't understand the whole story, Li Qingniang knew that Chen Yue's identity was still unlucky, so she immediately rushed to chase after him. At this time, most of the shops in the mutton alley were closed, and there were very few pedestrians on the street. In addition, she was very fast, so she shortened the distance from the man in clothes in front of her. Seeing that there were only a dozen steps left, she shouted sternly: "The man in front, stop me!"

Seeing that someone ignored her, Li Qingniang was immediately annoyed and chased her for a few more steps. She jumped in two steps. As soon as she stood firm, she had already blocked the man's face. Her eyesight was not comparable to Chen Yue's half-baked man. She could see the dissatisfactory face in an instant. She immediately changed her face and then asked, "Who is the one who disturbing my daughter's purity?"

"Your daughter? If I hadn't introduced you to the Shen family, would you have such a daughter?" Seeing Li Qingniang's expression change drastically, Xu Bian said coldly, "Of course, I have been thankful for teaching her over the years. Otherwise, with Chen Guang, who only knows how to make a fool of himself, even the best girl would be led by him. How could this benefit come true!"

"You...you are Mr. Xu..."

Li Qingniang finally understood why Chen Yue was so impatient just now. Not to mention Chen Yue, even she felt extremely nervous when she saw such a person standing in front of her. Seeing that the other party did not deny, she couldn't help but calm down for a moment and asked again: "Since Mr. Xu has arrived in the capital, why don't he look for Mr. Xu, but to look for my sister big and big?"

"He is already someone else's son, why am I going to find him? As for seeing Chen Yue, it's just for her childhood affection, you don't have to be so nervous. From now on, I won't appear in front of you again, just pretend you don't have me."

After saying this, Xu Bian never looked at Li Qingniang again and walked forward strode forward. Li Qingniang wanted to chase him, but now Xu Xun recognized Xu Liang as his father, and his career and life were bright. If there was more unknown Xu Bian, then everything would be in chaos in the future. She couldn't help but take back her foot and watched the person disappear at the corner there. I don't know how long it took, but she sighed softly, and then turned back without looking back.

Xu Bian, who passed through several alleys, waited in a dark corner for a long time. Seeing that no one was catching up with him, he smiled clearly. He peeled off the ragged clothes and threw them aside. He took out a few wall bricks from the wall, took out a bundle from the inside, changed the clothes inside, and tidied up his messy head. Finally, he put on the mask. Soon, he turned out a secret passage and got into a carriage that had been parked there.

All the matters in the capital have been done, and he is too lazy to fight with Luo Kedi again. It is time to go back.

Now he has no worries at all, so he can let go and continue to plan things he has planned for so many years. Unexpectedly, after he walked around with Méng Gu outside the pass, a big case like that of a big shot in Jinling. That child who gave up on himself would actually make such a comeback after the prodigal son turned around.

"There is such a daughter-in-law who refuses to accept her fate, you won't be like mine..."
