Siheyuan: Father Yi Zhonghai and Sister-in-law Lou Xiaoe

Early in the morning, when Xu's mother knocked on the door, Xu Xiaoran was already dressed.

"Mom, it's so early. Wow, it smells so good. What delicious food is this?"

Xu Xiaoran quickly reached out to take the plate.

"Poached eggs, fried eggs, omelettes."

Xu's mother introduced and looked inside.

“Why are they all eggs?”

Xu Xiaoran pouted.

"Tell Bufan to eat more."

It would have been fine if Xu's mother hadn't said this. Once she said it, Xu Xiaoran understood and quickly changed the subject: "Mom, did you sleep well last night? You and Dad should stay a few more days."

"Did you sleep well?"

Mother Xu glared at Xu Xiaoran and said, "Your father and I will go back today and will not disturb you two."

After saying this, Xu's mother turned around and went to clean up things in the yard.

Xu Xiaoran was slow to react, but after realizing what Xu's mother meant, she quickly closed the door and rushed towards Yi Bufan who had just washed his face.

"It's all your fault. My mom must have heard it last night."

Xu Xiaoran suddenly felt like finding a hole to crawl into.

"Oh, I forgot your parents live next door."

"It's okay. Didn't mom say she was leaving today?"

"They certainly won't hear it tonight."

Yi Bufan actually thought of this last night, but he didn't want to ruin his mood.

"What, tonight!"

Xu Xiaoran directly grabbed the soft flesh on Yi Bufan’s waist.

"Are you coming now?"

"It's not impossible. We don't have to go to work today anyway, so we can just go out a little later when we go shopping."

Yi Bufan said this and picked up Xu Xiaoran.

"What nonsense are you talking about? I mean I won't come tonight. I'm not feeling well."

Xu Xiaoran's voice suddenly softened.

"Oh, that's what I said. There's no need to be so anxious. Let's do it tonight...ah——"

As soon as Yi Bufan finished speaking, he let out a scream.

"I mean I won't come tonight either!"

Xu Xiaoran unceremoniously twisted his waist.

"Daughter-in-law, don't you know that a man's waist is the most important thing?"

"If you keep pinching me like this every day, it will be difficult for you to fly in the future."

Yi Bufan rubbed his waist and spoke aggrievedly.

"What are you talking about?" Xu Xiaoran blushed again as soon as she finished speaking, and let go of her hand again: "You, can't say it!"

However, when his hand touched Yi Bufan's waist, he retracted it. He must have still wanted to fly.

He casually took a piece of fried egg and stuffed it into Yi Bufan's mouth: "This will nourish you well."

"Well, let's make it up together!"

Yi Bufan quickly lowered his head and started eating. The loss was indeed not small.

......

"Brother Dongxu, good morning!"

Yi Bufan had a silly smile on his face. As soon as he walked out of his courtyard, he saw Jia Dongxu and greeted him.

"Humph!"

Jia Dongxu snorted coldly, seeming to have some complaints.

However, when he saw Qin Huairu hanging up the pants that Jia Dongxu wore yesterday, Yi Bufan seemed to have thought of something.

He poured out the half bucket of water that he had placed at the gate. At that time, when Xu Xiaoran was galloping, he seemed to have heard it and even cursed.

But, I ignored it.

It seems that Jia Dongxu is angry now, not just because his mother was sent to jail again.

"Dongxu, go ask your master for leave. Ask for a week first. If he doesn't come back by then, ask for more."

The aunt thought that it would take at least three or four days to take a train from here to the Great Northern Wilderness. Even if everything went well, it would take at least a week.

"Ah, didn't my master just come back? Where did he go? When did he leave?"

Jia Dongxu looked behind the old lady but didn't see Yi Zhonghai.

"I had some business in the Great Northern Wilderness, so I left last night."

The aunt did not tell anyone about their search for the child.

"Why are you going to the Great Northern Wilderness? Did you go to the village before?" Jia Dongxu looked at the old lady again and said, "I'll go there and talk to my boss later."

Jia Dongxu felt that Yi Zhonghai was probably looking for some folk remedy for an old lady again.

"Left last night?"

Yi Bufan was also a little surprised. Although Yi Zhonghai had said it yesterday, he still felt a little nervous when he heard it in person.

"Well, he left soon after dark."

After the old lady finished speaking, she went to the faucet, filled a pot of water and walked away with it.

"Bufan, don't you guys have to go to work today? Where are you going so early?"

Xu Damao just came out from the backyard and looked at Yi Bufan and Xu Xiaoran.

"Let's go out for a walk."

Yi Bufan responded casually.

"Brother, what's wrong with your legs? You walk with a limp."

Xu Xiaoran noticed that something was wrong when Xu Damao came out just now.

"Ah, this. I sprained my ankle last night."

Xu Damao glanced at Yi Bufan embarrassedly.

Could he say that he wanted to listen to Yi Bufan and Xu Xiaoran's conversation last night, but was hit by a stone by Yi Bufan?

Because of this incident, Lou Xiao'e laughed at him the whole night. By the way, she used this as an excuse to prevent him from touching Lou Xiao'e's body the whole night.

"Is it serious? Do you want to go to the hospital?"

Yi Bufan also seemed to realize something. No wonder the shouting of the man who was beaten last night felt a little familiar.
