Chapter 281 No need to guess Shangguan Cong was speechless, and he knew in his heart that if he didn't tell this guy the answer, he would definitely not let it go. In order to prevent him from doing something offensive again, he could only lower his voice and tell him Xie Cheng's identity. "Are you kidding?" Xu Yi didn't believe it, "The lord of a city will come to this small village?" "Believe it or not." Shangguan Cong warned coldly: "I have said that your words do not represent my words." He didn't want to be dragged down by this guy for the second time. "So, he is really the ancestor of Hanshui City?" Seeing Shangguan Cong's attitude, Xu Yi was half-believing and half-doubting. "Nine out of ten." Shangguan Cong said, "I heard my father mention it today. I didn't believe it at first, but after seeing it today, I have to believe it." "What do you mean?" Xu Yi scratched his head and said half-understandingly, "So, why didn't you believe it at first, and why do you believe it now?" "Didn't you see the blue snowflakes embroidered on his sleeves?" Shangguan Cong said, "That is the symbol of the Xie Mansion in Hanshui City." Who else can have such a look, such an aura, and the right age, and wear a robe embroidered with a blue snowflake logo except for the one in Hanshui City? Xu Yi broke out in a cold sweat when he heard this. When he thought about his performance just now, his heart almost rose to his throat. "He, he won't really attack us, right?" "That's hard to say." Shangguan Cong said, "It is rumored that this person is unreasonable and stubborn." "Then, what should we do?" Xu Yi said in a trembling voice, "Should we, or should we get off the boat now?" He was scared! "Look at what you have done." Shangguan Cong rolled his eyes at him, "What are you afraid of? We didn't know his identity before, and ignorance is not a crime." "How about we go up and apologize again?" Xu Yi suggested. Shangguan Cong looked at him as if he was an idiot, and said nothing for a long time. "Are you going or not?" Xu Yi frowned, "Brother Shangguan, you should give me a definite answer." "Are you a fool?" Shangguan Cong held his forehead and looked at him unhappily, "People already think we are an eyesore, and you still want to go up. Aren't you asking for trouble?" "Then what should we do now? Just sit like this?" "What else do you want?" Shangguan Cong raised his eyebrows, "If you think you have a long life, just go up, I will never stop you." "Then, then don't go." Xu Yi laughed dryly twice, but his eyes secretly glanced upstairs. "Master, do you want me to teach them a lesson?" Kong Yue asked in a low voice. "No need." Xie Cheng said calmly, "It should be an unintentional act, just ignore it." "Yes." Kong Yue responded and turned to go downstairs. Lin Laosan looked at Xie Cheng, then looked downstairs, a little confused. He knew the two people downstairs. In Yanhai Town, they were powerful figures. But why did they become so powerless after meeting the one upstairs? Could it be that the one upstairs was even more powerful than the two downstairs? The more Lin Laosan thought about it, the more frightened he became. Seeing that Kong Yue had already gone downstairs, he thought again and again and decided to follow him downstairs. Tang Xi looked at Xie Cheng and raised his eyebrows slightly, "What are the identities of the two people downstairs? That young master Shangguan, he seems to be very afraid of you?" Xie Cheng curled his lips and smiled, "There are not many people with the surname Xu and Shangguan in Yanhai Town, especially with their attitude, you don't have to guess which mansion they are from." (End of this chapter)
Chapter 282 You are the most powerful "Which mansion are they from?" Tang Xi was really curious. Xie Cheng raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at her with a half-smile and said, "Are you so interested in them?" "Curious!" Tang Xi took his arm and said, "City Lord, please satisfy my curiosity, okay?" As soon as she acted like a spoiled child, he had no way to deal with her, so he could only admit defeat and said, "That Mr. Xu should be the son of Xu Yanguan from Yanhai Town, and that Mr. Shangguan should be the son of Shangguan County Magistrate. As for why he suddenly changed his attitude, I think he must have discovered something." "I see!" Tang Xi nodded in sudden realization, "No wonder they are so arrogant, they are all big shots." Xie Cheng raised his eyebrows, "What big shot, can they be bigger than my brother?" Tang Xi nodded helplessly, "Yes, yes, you are the most powerful." Xie Cheng curled his lips and smiled, "Of course I am the most powerful." Tang Xi was stunned, always feeling that this conversation was not quite right. She coughed lightly and changed the subject: "How many days does it take to get to Lianhua Town by sea?" "If the wind is favorable, it should only take three or four days." "So close?" She raised her eyebrows, "How long does it take by land?" "Farther, it takes too long to go around, it takes half a month at most, and seven or eight days at least." "It sounds like the sea route is better." Tang Xi had just finished speaking when a horn sounded, and then the sails were slowly raised. After a while, the boat slowly moved. The boat was shaking slightly as the waves rushed past. Xie Cheng looked outside the cabin and whispered: "Today's wind is strong, and it's a favorable wind. We should be there soon." "You seem to be very familiar with these places. Do you come here often?" Tang Xi was very curious. " When I was young, I often ran around with Lu Huai and Ji Changan." When... when I was young? Tang Xi: "...You are still very young now." Xie Cheng smiled and said: "After all, you are not as young as when I was fifteen or sixteen years old." Well, her definition of young may be different from someone else's. Xie Cheng raised his eyebrows, hugged her, let her lie on his thighs, and whispered: "We will be floating on the sea for a while, so take a good rest while you can still sleep." Sometimes people are too tired and can't sleep well. When they are just tired now, they can fall asleep easily. "But I'm not sleepy." She drank the spiritual spring in the space and felt okay. "It's a bit strange to say." "Hmm?" Tang Xi was puzzled. Xie Cheng whispered: "I have been on the road recently, but I always feel not so tired." Is it because of the little girl around? Tang Xi's eyes flashed, pretending to be stupid and said: "Maybe it's because I am your spiritual support?" She was the one who filled the water every time, so naturally, she was not the only one who drank the spiritual spring. "Maybe!" Xie Cheng chuckled, rubbed her black hair and said: "If you can't sleep, close your eyes and rest for a while." She closed her eyes obediently, thinking that she would not be able to sleep, but who knew that she would feel sleepy after closing her eyes. Listening to the faint snoring, Xie Cheng chuckled softly, stroked her face and said helplessly: "You fell asleep so soon, and you said you're not sleepy." The little girl was really dishonest. He turned his head and looked out of the cabin silently. Except for the deck illuminated by lanterns, the rest of the place was almost pitch black. The wind was howling, pushing the big ship forward rapidly. (End of this chapter)
Chapter 283 Lotus Town Three days later, a large ship was slowly docking at the dock leading to Lotus Town. When Xie Cheng and Tang Xi got off, Xu Yi and Shangguan Cong were standing on the dock waiting for the coachman to drive out the carriage. When they saw them coming, they bowed their heads and bowed, no longer showing the arrogance they had when they first met. Xie Cheng glanced at the two of them indifferently without speaking. Tang Xi stood silently beside Xie Cheng, also waiting for the carriage. None of the four spoke, but this did not affect the bustle of the dock. At this moment, many ships were docked at the dock, including fishing boats, passenger ships, and cargo ships. At this moment, there were people unloading goods, merchants, people like Tang Xi who came to visit relatives, and some people from the underworld who came out to make a living. It was so lively. After seeing Xie Cheng and Kong Yue leave in the carriage, Xu Yi and Shangguan Cong both breathed a sigh of relief. "Oh, I'm scared to death!" Xu Yi patted his chest and said, "If he keeps laughing, I think the sea will freeze." Shangguan Cong sneered, "Can you be more exaggerated?" Xu Yi waved his hand, "No matter what, in short, we should have escaped." The two thought that this was the last time they would see Xie Cheng and his friends, but they didn't expect that they would meet again because of a catastrophe not long after. Of course, this is all later. The original owner had been to Lianhua Town when she was young, but she went by land, so at this moment, Tang Xi was actually a little confused. She didn't know where to go, but fortunately, Lin Lao San was there, and he often delivered goods to people, so he knew how to get to Lianhua Town. After entering Lianhua Town, she found that this was no longer the town of the past. There were not many restaurants in the past, but now, you can run into one every ten steps. There are also many more buildings than in the past. Even the town gate has changed. I remember it was a long pillar, and then there were three big vermilion characters "Lianhua Town". Now, it is a solid town gate, and the three characters are still vermilion, but they are hung high above the town gate. As they walked, Tang Xi was in trouble again. She could not remember where her grandmother's grocery store was. After all, the original owner came here seven years ago. "I forgot." She looked at Xie Cheng with tears in her eyes. Xie Cheng chuckled and comforted her in a low voice: "Don't worry, think about it slowly, where is it roughly?" "This town has expanded more than twice since I came here. My grandmother's grocery store is..." She pointed her finger here and there, and finally said with a depressed face: "I don't remember where it is." "Well." Xie Cheng couldn't help laughing again, "Why don't we find a place to rest first, and then find a way to find it after we have rested." "Okay!" Tang Xi looked around the bustling street with people coming and going, and couldn't help sighing. Several people found an inn, washed up, had a full meal, and rested for half a day before continuing to look for a grocery store. Xie Chenghe: "Do you still remember the names of your grandparents? Your uncle's is fine too." "I only know that my grandmother's surname is Xia, my grandfather's name is Mo Qingxiong, my uncle's name is Mo Yang, and my uncle's name is Mo Xu." Xie Cheng nodded. He asked Kong Yue to borrow pen, ink, paper and inkstone from the innkeeper, and then asked Tang Xi to write the names of the Mo family on them, and then asked Kong Yue to send them to the county government office in Lianhua Town. Not long after, Kong Yue came back, and with him came a middle-aged man in official uniform and hat. As soon as the man came, he saluted to Xie Cheng and said, "Your humble servant greets City Lord Xie!" "County Magistrate Bai, there is no need to be so polite." Xie Cheng asked him to sit down, and then asked in a calm voice, "Have you ever heard of the name of the person on this paper, County Magistrate Bai?" (End of this chapter)
Chapter 284 County Magistrate Bai Hearing this, Tang Xi hurriedly pricked up his ears to listen. But County Magistrate Bai said: "I have asked someone to inquire. If they are in Lianhua Town, I believe they will be found soon." "Thank you, County Magistrate Bai." Xie Cheng said, and picked up the teapot to pour a cup of tea for County Magistrate Bai. When County Magistrate Bai saw it, he was flattered and said: "I dare not!" Xie Cheng said in a calm voice: "It's just a cup of tea, don't be afraid, drink it." The last time I saw Xie Cheng was three years ago. When I saw him again, this kid's aura was not only not reduced, but even stronger than before. He has lived for fifty years and has been the county magistrate in Lianhua Town for ten years, but every time he faces Xie Cheng, he can't help but be stage fright. "Your subordinate obeys your command!" County Magistrate Bai bowed respectfully, and then carefully picked up the teacup and took a sip. Seeing him like this, Xie Cheng couldn't help but feel playful. He looked up at County Magistrate Bai for a moment and said in a low voice, "It's only been three years since I last saw you. County Magistrate Bai has aged a lot. It seems that this position of county magistrate is not easy to be." County Magistrate Bai's heart skipped a beat, wondering what this little ancestor was going to do. "How do you think about this?" Xie Cheng raised his eyebrows and said, "I'll write a letter to His Majesty and ask you to return to your hometown to retire?" County Magistrate Bai was shocked and hurriedly stood up and knelt on the ground, saying in panic, "I don't know what I did wrong. Please punish me, Lord Xie." "You didn't do anything." Xie Cheng didn't expect him to react so much, so he hurriedly stood up and helped him up, "I'm just afraid that you're overworked, which is not good." County Magistrate Bai shook his head repeatedly, sweating on his forehead, and said, "For the people of Lianhua Town, I'm not tired!" "Since you don't feel tired, that's fine." Xie Cheng asked him to sit back in his seat, and then said in a low voice, "Don't think too much, I just said it casually." Just said it casually? County Magistrate Bai was depressed. His ancestors didn't know that his casual remark almost scared him to death. Seeing that his face was the same color as his surname, Xie Cheng had no choice but to say, "If you have anything else to do in your office, go back first. If you have any news, just send someone to tell me." "Yes, yes!" County Magistrate Bai nodded repeatedly, stood up and bowed to him again, saying, "Then I will go first. When there is any news, I will inform you as soon as possible." "Okay." Xie Cheng nodded, "Kongyue, go and see County Magistrate Bai off." "No need, no need!" County Magistrate Bai waved his hands in fear, "Your subordinate can do it yourself." Even though he refused, Kongyue still said in a calm voice, "Please, County Magistrate Bai." "Oh, good, good!" County Magistrate Bai glanced at Xie Cheng, hunched his body and retreated to the door. He stood up straight after leaving the door. After the others went downstairs and left, Tang Xi sighed and said helplessly: "I didn't expect you to have such a bad taste." "Bad taste?" Xie Cheng argued innocently: "I just felt pity for him. He was still energetic three years ago, but now he is so old. He must be overworked." Tang Xi rolled his eyes at him, "You almost scared me to death, and you still say it." "Who told him to be so timid every time he sees me," Xie Cheng smiled, "If I don't scare him, I will be unworthy of his title of the King of Hell to me." Tang Xi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She came out from behind and said: "I'll try my luck on the street again." Xie Cheng stood up after hearing that, "I'll go with you." The two went downstairs side by side, and the shopkeeper smiled flatteringly: "Are you two going out?" Tang Xi smiled lightly and nodded slightly, and left the inn with Xie Cheng. (End of this chapter)
Chapter 285 Wang Lianer "Manager Hao, who are these two people?" The waiter at the side was a little confused. Manager Hao rarely took the initiative to greet those people, because the county magistrate's brother-in-law opened the Binyue Inn, which was equivalent to the fact that the backer of this inn was County Magistrate Bai. This was almost known to everyone in Lianhua Town, so Manager Hao didn't have to look at other people's faces. On the contrary, it was the guests who had to look at his face. "I seemed to see County Magistrate Bai walking out just now. Could it be that he came to see these two guests?" "Don't ask things you shouldn't ask." Manager Hao's expression sank, and he said coldly: "Are you still busy?" "Yes, yes, I'll be busy right away." The waiter smiled flatteringly, glanced outside the door, and then continued to be busy. In fact, Manager Hao was also very confused about the identities of Xie Cheng and others. Judging from the expression of County Magistrate Bai just now, the identities of these guests must be not simple. He naturally wanted to please the people who even County Magistrate Bai was afraid of. Meanwhile, Tang Xi and Xie Cheng, who had left the inn, were walking on the street, asking the shop owners from time to time. Unfortunately, no one knew where the Mo family's grocery store was. Tang Xi frowned, "Is it closed?" "This Lotus Town was only expanded three years ago. In addition to locals, many people from other places come here to do business." Xie Cheng said, "Let's ask again. There will always be someone we know." Tang Xi nodded, and the two continued to walk around and ask. Just when Tang Xi was feeling discouraged, Kong Yue came. "Master, Miss, there is news about the Mo family." Tang Xi was overjoyed, "Tell me quickly!" "It's just..." Kong Yue hesitated. Tang Xi's heart skipped a beat, and she had a bad feeling. "Just what?" Kong Yue said, "According to the news from the government, half a year ago, the people of the Mo family offended a man named Wang in the town, and were finally suppressed by that man. They couldn't do business anymore, so they sold the grocery store and the yard, and then returned to Mojia Village with their family." "Mojia Village?" Tang Xi frowned, "How to get there?" Kong Yue shook her head, she had never been there either. Xie Cheng ordered, "Go to the government again and ask County Magistrate Bai to send someone to lead the way for us." "Yes!" "Wait." Kong Yue was about to leave, but was stopped by Xie Cheng, "Ask County Magistrate Bai to investigate the matter between the Mo family and Mr. Wang." "Yes!" Kong Yue took the order, turned around and quickly disappeared into the crowd. Tang Xi frowned, hoping that everyone in the Mo family would be safe. "Don't worry, it will be fine." Xie Cheng held her hand tightly and whispered, "Let's go back to the inn and wait." Tang Xi nodded and let him lead her back. When Kong Yue came back again, it was already afternoon, and County Magistrate Bai sent two people to follow her. On the way to Mojia Village, Kong Yue also told Tang Xi and Xie Cheng the reason why Wang Yuanwai suppressed the Mo family. It turned out that Wang Yuanwai had a daughter named Wang Lian'er, who fell in love with Tang Xi's uncle Mo Xu and wanted him to divorce his wife Tan and become a son-in-law of the Wang family. However, Mo Xu didn't like Wang Lian'er in the first place, so he naturally didn't want to. After being rejected, Wang Lian'er cried, made a scene, and even threatened to hang herself after returning home. In order to coax his daughter, Wang Yuanwai suppressed the people of the Mo family everywhere. Whenever someone wanted to go to the Mo family grocery store to buy something, he would send someone to warn them. If someone insisted on going in, he would send someone to teach the person a lesson when he came out. Over time, no one dared to go to the Mo family grocery store to buy things. (End of this chapter)
Chapter 286 Tan Family After hearing this, Tang Xi sneered, "My own daughter is shameless and falls in love with a married man, and she even forced him to divorce his wife and marry her. This Mr. Wang not only failed to teach his daughter etiquette and morality, but also helped the tyrant to commit atrocities. They are really birds of a feather." "Don't be angry. " Xie Cheng whispered to comfort him, "I'm here. I will get back what the Mo family has suffered." "No hurry." Tang Xi curled her lips, "Wait until we find grandpa and grandma, then talk to Mr. Wang about it." Xie Cheng sighed lightly. When the little girl was angry, even her smile was cold. It only took half an hour to get from Lianhua Town to Mojia Village. Because there were yamen runners leading the way in front, the villagers of Mojia Village became nervous as soon as they entered the village. "Are they here to arrest people? Who made a mistake?" Someone speculated. "Impossible? There hasn't been any major incident in our village recently, who are the officials going to arrest?" One of the yamen runners asked, "Who knows where Mo Qingxiong's family is?" "Mo Qingxiong?" A young woman in the crowd turned pale, and she stepped forward and asked timidly, "My two yamen runners, I wonder what Mo Qingxiong's family has done?" "Nothing." The yamen runner said, "If you know where it is, just lead the way." "I..." Tan was a little nervous, thinking, could it be that the girl from the Wang family has come again? "What should I do?" An old man frowned and said, "Could it be that something really happened to Qingxiong's family?" "They are all an honest family, what can happen?" Someone comforted Tan, saying, "Little Yu, don't be afraid first, maybe the officials have something to ask?" At this moment, a carriage slowly stopped behind the two yamen runners, and the woman in black glanced at the crowd without saying a word. Half of the people's eyes were on the woman in black, with surprise and curiosity in their eyes. Miss Xie is pretty, but she looks a little cold and not easy to get along with. "Kong Yue, what's wrong?" A beautiful and refined face caught everyone's attention, and everyone's eyes could not help but shift from the woman in black to the young girl. Kong Yue whispered back, "The yamen runners in front are asking questions." Tang Xi nodded slightly, glanced at everyone, and when he saw the young woman standing next to the yamen runner's horse, he couldn't help but frown. The young woman looked a little anxious, and her face was a little pale, and she seemed very nervous. "What's wrong?" Tang Xi asked loudly. The yamen runner in front jumped off the horse, stepped forward and said respectfully, "Miss, I'm asking for directions." "Did you find out?" Tang Xi asked again. "The lady in front said that she is Mo Qingxiong's daughter-in-law." "Daughter-in-law?" Qingli's cheeks were instantly filled with joy, and she jumped off the carriage and walked towards the young woman. Everyone and the young woman followed her with puzzled eyes, as if they were guessing which girl this was. Xie Cheng wanted to follow her, but after thinking about it, he chose to stay in the carriage. Tang Xi walked up to the young woman and stopped, and asked with sparkling eyes: "Are you Tan, the wife of Mo Xu?" "Young lady, do you know me?" Tan looked at her in confusion. "Really?" Tang Xi was delighted, and stretched out her hand to hold Tan's hand, but after thinking about it, she put her hand down. She smiled at Tan and said, "I am Tang Xi." "Tang Xi?" Tan opened her eyes wide, "You...you are my sister's daughter, Xiaoxi?" Although she had never seen Tang Xi, she often heard people in the Mo family talking about her. Some time ago, her own family member and her eldest brother went to Beisang City to look for someone, so she was naturally very familiar with this name. (End of this chapter)
Chapter 287 Mo Linglong The people watching nearby were also shocked when they heard what Tan said. "Let's go back first!" Before Tang Xi could speak, Tan had already pulled her forward. When the two yamen runners saw this, they didn't know whether to follow or stay, so they could only turn back to look at Kong Yue. But when they saw the curtain of the carriage was lifted, the handsome face was revealed, and the girls watching couldn't help but stare at him in a daze. Xie Cheng said in a calm voice: "You go back to the yamen first." "Yes!" After the two yamen runners bowed respectfully, they turned around and rode away. "Who is this? She is so beautiful!" "I saw that the girl just got off this carriage. Could she be from Luobian Town?" Xie Cheng turned a deaf ear to those voices and only told Kong Yue in a calm voice: "Follow." Kong Yue understood and hurriedly drove the carriage slowly behind the villagers. Tang Xi turned around and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the carriage catch up. "Some time ago, your uncle and your younger uncle went to Luobian Town and said that there was no one there. When they went into the city to ask, they heard that everyone in Luobian Town had gone to Hanshui City. They were about to go to Hanshui City to find you, but they didn't expect you to come." Tan said a lot of things in a fluent manner, and then asked, "By the way, where is your brother?" "He and my father are in Hanshui City." At this moment, Tang Xi finally spoke. "That's good!" Tan said, "I heard that Luobian Town had a severe drought and many people died. I was very anxious. If it weren't for the inconvenience of my legs and feet, I would have followed your uncle and uncle to find you." "We 're here." Tan said, pushing open the fence door, leading her into the yard, and shouting at the top of her voice: "Dad, Mom, Axu, Big Brother and Big Sister, come and see who's here." Tang Xi looked around and saw that they lived in a tiled house and the yard was also very spacious, so she couldn't help but feel a little relieved. "My parents and grandparents went to Aunt Zhang's house to drink. Aunt, who's here?" A fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl walked out of the room. Tang Xi looked over and met the girl's gaze, but saw the doubt in her eyes. "Are you cousin Linglong?" Tang Xi asked tentatively. Mo Linglong was surprised, "Who are you?" The girl in front of her was so beautiful, if she had seen her, she would definitely not forget her. Tang Xi smiled, "I am Xiaoxi, cousin, don't you recognize me?" "Xiaoxi?" Mo Linglong was shocked, "You, you are really Xiaoxi?" Tang Xi smiled and nodded, "Yes!" Mo Linglong was delighted, stepped forward and took her hand to look up and down, and couldn't help but exclaimed: "You were thin and dark when you were young, but I didn't expect that you have grown into a delicate girl in just a few years!" Tan smiled and said, "Hurry up and bring her in to sit, I'll go to Aunt Zhang's house to call everyone back." Mo Linglong nodded, "Okay!" As she said, she was about to take Tang Xi into the house, but Tang Xi said, "I have friends." As soon as she finished speaking, Xie Cheng had lifted the curtain and got off the carriage. Tan and Mo Linglong were stunned after seeing Xie Cheng's face. This was the first time they had seen such a handsome man. Xie Cheng bowed slightly to the two of them, walked past Tan, and stood beside Tang Xi. "What, what is this?" Tan looked at Tang Xi and asked. "This is..." Tang Xi thought for a moment and smiled, "My good friend, Xie Cheng." Tan smiled and said, "So he is Xiaoxi's friend. Come on, sit inside." Xie Cheng frowned unhappily, "Not a friend." "Not a friend?" Tan looked at Tang Xi in confusion, "What is the relationship?" Tang Xi laughed dryly, "He is my fiancé." (End of this chapter)
Chapter 288 Warmth "Fiancé? Xiaoxi, are you engaged?" Mo Linglong was surprised. " I guess so." After all, she accepted the heirloom jade pendant of the Xie family, so it should be considered an engagement, right? Hearing this, Xie Cheng curled his lips in satisfaction. Tan smiled and said, "Whatever it is, go back to the house and sit down first. Auntie, go and call people first." "Okay." Several people nodded. Halfway through her walk, Tan happened to meet Kong Yue who came in. She greeted her warmly, "Miss, you are also Xiaoxi's friend, right? Come in and have a cup of hot tea to cool down." Kong Yue nodded slightly, moved aside and let her pass. Leading the three people into the house, Mo Linglong smiled and said, "Xiaoxi, you sit down first. I'll go and make a pot of tea." Tang Xi smiled and nodded slightly. Here, just as Tan hurried into Aunt Zhang's house, she was stopped by Aunt Zhang's daughter-in-law, Zhong, who greeted her with a smile, "Sister-in-law, you're here at the right time. I went to look for you just now but couldn't find you. Come and have a seat and drink a cup of hot wine to warm yourself up." "Oh, no, no!" Tan waved her hands, "There are guests at home, so I came here to find my parents and my eldest brother and his wife." "Guests?" Mo Yang's daughter-in-law Qiao was puzzled, "What guests?" Tan came forward and whispered a few words in her ear. When Qiao heard this, she hurriedly stood up and said to the wives present, "Oh, I'm afraid we can't continue drinking today." "What's wrong?" Zhong looked at the two of them with a puzzled look on her face. Mrs. Qiao said, "It's my sister's daughter." Everyone suddenly realized it, and Mrs. Zhong hurriedly said, "Then go back quickly, let's drink this wine another day." The two nodded, and Mrs. Qiao said to Mrs. Tan, "Sister-in-law, go back and prepare first, I'll go call parents and your eldest brother." Mrs. Tan nodded, "Then I'll go to the village to cut some meat first." "Okay." Mrs. Qiao nodded and hurriedly walked to the backyard. "What's wrong?" Mo Yang asked when he saw her coming. Mrs. Qiao said, "Sister-in-law said Xiaoxi is here, let's go back." "What?" Mo Yang and Mo Xu looked at each other, and they hurriedly got up. The two elders of the Mo family also hurriedly got up. Old lady Mo opened her eyes wide and said, "You mean, Xi'er is here?" "Yes, mother." Mrs. Qiao said, "My sister-in-law came here just now. She said she was going to the village to buy some pork." Mrs. Xia had no time to greet other people. As she walked, she asked Mrs. Qiao, "Is anyone home? My granddaughter has come from such a far place. I don't know if she has suffered." " Everyone, we will go back first." The two brothers of the Mo family supported old man Mo and said to everyone. "Go back quickly." Aunt Zhang smiled and said, "We can drink this wine anytime, but we can't neglect the children." The two nodded and hurriedly helped the people to leave. "Xi'er! Xi'er!" Tang Xi, who was whispering with Xie Cheng and Kong Yue, trembled slightly when she heard the calls. She suddenly got up and walked out of the house. "Where's Xi'er?" Xia frowned slightly, and was slightly stunned when she saw Tang Xi, "Girl, have you seen my Xi'er?" Tang Xi's eyes instantly turned red. She bent her eyebrows and reached out to hold the old woman's hands full of age spots and said with tears in her eyes: "Grandma, your Xi'er is here." "Xi'er?" Xia stared at her face with tears in her eyes for a long time, then smiled and nodded and said: "The eyebrows and eyes are very similar to Yu'er. Yes, it's my Xi'er!" Mo Yu is Mo's name. Tang Xi hugged the old woman in her arms with tears in her smile, "Grandma, I miss you and grandpa very much, and Xiao misses you too!" She didn't know what happened. The moment she saw Xia, an inexplicable warmth and dependence surged in her heart. (End of this chapter)
Chapter 289 No matter how you look at it, there is no possibility of intersection "Good children, grandma misses you too!" The old lady patted her back and choked up. Mo Yang and others came in and saw this scene, and couldn't help but smile with relief. Seeing the little girl crying, Xie Cheng felt soft in his heart, and he wanted to hold her in his arms and coax her in a low voice. "Xiaoxi!" Qiao walked forward with a smile, "Do you still recognize me?" "Yes!" Tang Xi raised her head from Zhu's shoulder, looked at Qiao and nodded, "You are my aunt." "Exactly!" Qiao was shocked to see her change, "Where is your brother? Didn't he come with you?" "No." Tang Xi let Xia wipe her tears and smiled, "He and my father are in Hanshui City." "I'm glad you're okay!" Old Master Mo stepped forward and said, "Your uncle went to Gaopo Village and said they didn't see you. They went into the city to ask people, but heard that everyone in Luobian Town went to Hanshui City. They were afraid that something might happen to you, so grandpa was planning to ask them to go to Hanshui City to look for you." "Grandpa!" Tang Xi sniffed and shouted with a smile. "Good kids!" Grandpa Mo nodded with relief. Qiao said, "Is your stepmother treating you well?" Seeing Tang Xi's little appearance now, it didn't seem like he had suffered. Tang Xi smiled and said, "My father has broken up with her." "Broken up?" Everyone in the Mo family was surprised. "How did they break up?" Tang Xi said, "Ah Xiao caught a cold at the time, and Liu was afraid of being a burden, so she broke up with my father." "I said your wife is hard to get along with." Mo Xu said, "It's good that they broke up. It's just right for your father to see the true face of this evil woman." Mo Xu, who had been bullied by Liu, didn't have any good feelings towards Liu. "Go back to the house and sit down first." Mo Yang reminded. Xia nodded, "Yes, yes, go back to the house and sit down." When everyone raised their eyes and prepared to go into the house, they found Xie Cheng and Kong Yue standing at the door without saying a word. "Uh... who are these two?" Qiao was curious. Xie Cheng smiled at them and nodded slightly, suggesting, "Go in and sit down first." Tang Xi gave him a glare, and then helped Xia, who also looked puzzled, into the house. After everyone in the Mo family sat down, Xie Cheng and Tang Xi followed suit. Kong Yue didn't like staying in the house. She said a few words to Xie Cheng and Tang Xi, and then went out alone. "Xiao Xi, who is this young man?" Mo Xu asked first. Tang Xi introduced in a light tone: "Xie Cheng, my fiancé." "Fiancé?" Everyone in the Mo family was shocked. Xie Cheng said at the right time: "Grandpa and grandma, uncle, uncle, and aunt, hello, I am Xie Cheng." "Xie Cheng?" Mo Yang was slightly stunned, "The young man is from Hanshui City?" Could it be that big shot? Maybe, just the same name? Xie Cheng nodded slightly, "Yes." "You are not... Lord Xie, right?" Mo Yang asked tentatively. Xie Cheng nodded, "That's right." Everyone in the Mo family took a breath at the same time. They never thought that Tang Xi's fiancé was the big shot in Hanshui City. Tang Xi was not surprised at all that Mo Yang could guess Xie Cheng's identity. After all, her uncle was a scholar. Upon hearing this, the people of the Mo family stood up to salute, but were stopped by Xie Cheng. Mo Yang was surprised and asked, "How do you know Xiaoxi?" This was too unbelievable for them. One was a small peasant girl, and the other was a high-ranking figure. It was impossible for them to have any intersection. Xie Cheng raised his thin lips slightly, "This, Xixi has to tell you."

Chapter 290 The Types Girls Prefer Tang Xi has told this story so many times that she easily solved the problem raised by Xie Cheng. The people of the Mo family were shocked to hear that she not only knew medical skills, but could also cure heart disease and tuberculosis. "That's great!" Mo Linglong, who came in with a teapot, said happily: "Xiaoxi, grandpa and grandma's feet have not been very good recently. Sometimes they even hurt so much that they can't walk. Can you take a look at them?" "What's the problem?" Grandpa Mo sighed lightly, "Isn't it just that people are old and it's harder to walk? It's like this when people get old. It's nothing serious." "How can it be nothing serious?" Mo Linglong frowned and said, "The other day I heard dad say that grandpa's legs hurt so much that he said he wanted to ask a doctor to see him." Qiao said, "Linglong is right, dad, mom, since Xiaoxi knows medical skills, let her take a look at you." When people get old, it is easy to get osteoporosis due to aging of bones, which is very common. Tang Xi asked, "Does it still hurt now?" "A little." Old Master Mo said, "It's okay when you don't walk, but it hurts a little when you walk." "I'm fine, it's mainly your grandpa." Xia said, "He gets better after a doctor gives him acupuncture once, but it relapses soon after. When it's severe, he can't even walk." Tang Xi nodded, "Since I have nothing to do now, I'll give you acupuncture." As she said that, she opened the cloth bag and took out the box containing the nine silver needles from the space under the cover of the cloth bag. Xia smiled and said, "You are indeed a doctor. Look, you even carry needles with you." Tang Xi also smiled, asked the two to sit down, rolled up their trouser legs a little above their knees, and then began to give them acupuncture. "Thank you, Lord City, please have some tea!" Mo Yang picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Xie Cheng. Xie Cheng nodded and took it, but his eyes kept looking at Tang Xi. But she looked serious and was giving acupuncture to the two elders seriously. "How did you find this place?" Mo Xu was very curious. They had been living in the town before, and moved back only half a year ago. Xie Cheng said calmly: "I asked County Magistrate Bai for help." After giving the injection, Tang Xi looked at Mo Xu for a while, and he probably understood why Wang Lian'er forced him to divorce his wife and become a live-in son-in-law. The two brothers of the Mo family are both good-looking, both of them are handsome, especially Mo Xu, who has a high nose, narrow eyebrows, and fair skin. Even if he wears a cloth dress, it is difficult to hide his handsomeness. He is indeed the type that girls like. Although the eldest uncle Mo Yang is almost forty years old, except for the faint fine lines at the corners of his eyes when he smiles, he looks like he is in his early thirties. Seeing the appearance of the Mo family, Tang Xi felt that it was natural for her to be good-looking. Mrs. Qiao looked at Tang Xi and said with a look of relief: "When Xiaoxi came, she was still a dark and skinny kid. Now, she has grown into a big girl. In two or three years, she will get married. Time flies so fast!" "Isn't it?" Mo Yang smiled and said, "Last year, she was still a little black girl, and she didn't like to talk much. Now I see her again, she is much more lively." Hearing this, Xie Cheng paused slightly in his teacup holding action, and a little doubt flashed in his eyes. Tang Xi smiled without noticing: "People always have to grow up." Mrs. Xia smiled and suddenly wiped her tears and said, "It's just a pity for my Yu'er. If she were still alive, she would be so happy to see her Xi'er so successful." (End of this chapter)
