At the entrance of the first dim sum shop at the street corner, Bai Kui seemed to have been tapped on his acupuncture points. He kept walking with his feet up and his whole body was stiff.
He placed his left foot on the ground and raised his right foot. He was holding a box of hibiscus cakes in his hand, and the corners of his mouth were still curved upward.
"Old man, when did you come? Did you come to see me?" The young man in white stood in front of him, his peach blossom eyes curled up, and his tone of voice was kinder and gentle than usual. His eyes passed over the box of snacks, "I remember you don't love Have some snacks, this hibiscus cake, you bought it for me too, right?"
"..." Bai Kui carefully landed with his right foot, widened the curve of his mouth by two points, and smiled sincerely, "Hey, hey, son! Dad is just here to find you! I didn't expect that he would actually let me Found it hahaha!"
Bai Yu smiled, "Lift your right foot."
"..." Bai Kui raised his right foot again, and the golden rooster became independent.
This scene made passers-by in a hurry couldn't help but stop and watch.
There was a carriage not far away, and the two small windows were crowded with heads watching the fun.
"Jie Jie! Hee hee hee!" The old man laughed non-stop.
There were more people watching, sometimes looking at the father and son confronting each other in front of the snack shop, sometimes looking at the carriage with its head stuck in it.
Bai Yu didn't look back, just stared at his old man, but he said to the people in the car, "Grandpa Du, where did you see my dad last night?"
Bai Kui's mouth twitched.
The poisonous old man's sly smile turned into a cough.
"When you meet an old friend in a different place, you must have a lot of things to say carefully and slowly. Don't stay in the car and talk in the teahouse." Bai Xiaofeng got off the carriage first. He looked at the owner of Quelou and couldn't bear to be on the street. Being treated like a monkey.
There is a teahouse next to the dim sum shop.
In the private room facing the street on the third floor, ten people sat at a table.
There was a rumble of thunder outside the window, and a sudden rainstorm came unexpectedly.
The raindrops made a crackling sound, covering up the noise of the long street. Amidst the sound of rain, the entire imperial city became quiet.
Bai Kui, an unexpected person, attracted everyone's attention at the tea table.
Pairs of eyes were staring at him, waiting for him to make up a story.
"Ahem!" Bai Kui cleared his throat, and laughed a few times to relieve his embarrassment and guilt, "My Baifu has business all over the place, and this time I just have a business to discuss in Xiling. I thought you were all here. I can get together with you, so I came in person. It’s just a coincidence, it’s such a coincidence!”
Bai Yu rested his jaw with one hand and raised his eyelids lazily, "If it's such a coincidence, why didn't you find me last night? Why did you let Grandpa Du hide your whereabouts from us?"
"What?" Bai Kui slapped the tea table and stood up angrily, pointing at the old man Du in disbelief, "This old guy actually hid my whereabouts from you?! I said I slept in the inn all night, why didn't my son come to see me? I! The co-author is the one behind the plot, and I deliberately don’t tell you the truth!”
Du Buguo spat out a mouthful of tea, his triangular eyes becoming round with anger.
The old man rolled up his sleeves and said, "Hey, you bastard, grandpa is still sitting here and you are slamming a shit basin on my head right in front of me? You bully grandpa, his legs and feet are not as good as they used to be! I promised to help you hide it, but in the end grandpa is You became Lu Dongbin, you dog!"
"Vicious old man! Bai always respects you just because you are older. Don't go too far and spit on others! Want to fight? Come, fight on the street, I will accompany you!"
"If you fight on the street, fight on the street! Let's go!"
The two people, who were so noisy that they were red-faced, were about to jump out of the window, but a certain Dogecoin who liked to shake a fan quickly closed the window and cut off the road.
The owner of the building, with his back against the window, gently shook his jade fan and smiled brightly, "I won't make such a fuss with you. If you have any misunderstandings, you can just tell them in person. While we are all here, we can give you two a fair judgment." no?"
Bai Kui, Poison is not invaded, "..."
Bai Xiaofeng, this sinister dog!
Deliberately denying them the opportunity to collude in confession!
"Have you finished singing the double act?" Bai Yu tilted his body and looked at the two people who were making eye contact by the window. "Xiling has been under martial law for nearly half a month. No matter tourists or businessmen from other places, they are not allowed to enter or leave the city easily, let alone the emperor. Peace in the city."
His gaze slid towards the burly man whose body began to stiffen again, "Old man, I see that you are walking around Du'an City very freely. How did you get in? You said you were here to discuss business. Does it mean that the other person lives in Du'an City? Your last name is Who is your name and what kind of business do you do? Can you tell me?"
Bai Kui froze again, his face too droopy to look at.
The son is smart and the father will definitely be happy.
But sometimes being too smart can be so damn annoying!
Especially this son never knows how to save face for his father!
Bai Kui wiped his face, not daring to look at his son. He always felt that the bastard's eyes could see through him, and he was so powerful.
What an ancestor!
"Ah! I know!" The little ancestor suddenly made a sound, and Bai Kui's heart jumped. He then heard the little ancestor ask again, "Old man, when you come to the imperial city, are you here to discuss business with the queen?" Right?"
Bai Kui almost sat down on the ground and yelled, "No, of course it's not possible! Your father doesn't have that much respect!"
"I'm kidding you, why are you so anxious?"
"..."
Bai Xiaofeng raised her eyebrows invisibly, turned around and opened the window again. The cold wind blew in with raindrops, and the dull atmosphere in the private room instantly faded a lot.
After closing the window, he kicked Bai Kui and put the little old man back on his seat. "Okay, let's talk about the topic slowly, father and son, let's have tea. We will leave the city when the rain stops. We can't talk anymore." Delayed."
With his words, Bai Kui wiped out the grudge, "Are you planning to return to Dai Viet now? Take the water route? Why choose this weather to set off? It's windy and rainy, so it's not safe to sail."
The boys who had been watching the play quietly before saw that the play was over and they probably couldn't hear the gossip anymore, so they stopped pretending to be nice.
Su An sighed loudly, "I can't care about safety for the moment. I'll leave this imperial city first before making any plans."
Just as Bai Kui was about to ask what happened, he heard the noise coming from outside the window.
It was raining heavily at this time, and people who had to rush on the street were all in a hurry, and there was almost no human conversation.
So the noise that penetrated the rain curtain made it difficult to ignore.
"Xiaobao! Xiaobao!" It was the woman's shrill cry.
Several children sitting at the table heard the sound and rushed to the window to look out.
Bai Kui was confused and stepped forward to join in the kick.
The rain curtain was like a waterfall, and a layer of rainwater dripped on the ground of the bluestone long street. When the raindrops hit, there were dense vortices.
The elegantly dressed old woman with Chinese hair staggered and ran in the rain, her hair and clothes were all soaked by the rain, and she was in a mess.
She grabbed hold of people passing by, because her face was so pale that her red eyes looked even more penetrating, and her face was full of fear and despair.
"Have you seen my little baby?"
"Yu'er, have you seen my son Yu'er?"
"Yu'er! Where did you go? It's raining. Come home quickly, Yu'er! Mom is here to pick you up!"
"Yu'er——!"
