Li Daitao

Until the next morning, when Xu Ji woke up, he was still pouting. It's a pity that Qin Shu went out early in the morning, even if he bulged his face into a meat bun, he couldn't see it.

When Meng Zhang was helping him wash his face, seeing the child was downcast, he thought he was homesick, so he comforted him a few words, but Xu Ji was unhappy, so he just nodded and shook his head, not willing to speak.After drinking a bowl of porridge, Meng Zhang sent him to the city.

He was able to tell clearly the family of the old friend he wanted to visit, that was a famous family in the city, and sure enough he recognized him as the son of a friend, and his family was waiting at the government early today.

It's just a little strange. It is said that if someone loses a child, let alone finds out that it was almost snatched by a bad person, how anxious should it be?Xu Ji is obviously the child of a very rich and powerful family, so it is clear that gold is very expensive.Knowing the news about the child, it is not far from the city, so it is reasonable to send someone to bring him back to his parents yesterday.But the family insisted on taking their time and letting him spend the night outside.

But this is someone else's family business after all, and Meng Zhang doesn't go into it.He had taken advantage of the situation to save Xu Ji, and he thought it was nothing more than a little effort, so he didn't take it seriously, let alone wanting to be rewarded by others.Since Xu Ji's family members came to pick him up in person, it would be best.

The other party thanked him for the reward, which was the meaning in the question. Meng Zhang delivered the person safely, and ignored the strange things, so he just told him and left.

The father and son were sent out of the house respectfully by the people in the government.After walking for a while, seeing no one around, I turned into a secluded alley.An ordinary carriage was parked quietly at the end of the alley.

Xu Ji twisted his body, and the other party who still called him Daddy said: "Uncle, let me down."

The man put him down as he said, Xu Ji ran two steps forward, refusing to let others hug him, and climbed up the carriage with hands and feet.

Yi Zhen was sitting in the car, and now he was at the age of standing, his demeanor became more and more calm, and he no longer had the high-spirited shadow of earlier years on his body.However, he was staring out of the window in a daze at this moment, and he didn't seem to notice anyone coming.

"Father." Xu Ji was ignored by others one after another, but now he quit. He plunged into his arms, angrily clenched his small fists and knocked him twice.

"You're back." Yi Zhen just saw Xu Ji—or it should be called Yi Ji, but he didn't come back to his thoughts for a while. He has always doted on this child and didn't care about his behavior. Instead, He smiled dazedly at Xu Ji.

As soon as he got the news of Qin Shu, he hurried on the road without having time to inquire about the rest of the situation. However, he was timid, and the closer he got to that person, the more confused he was. Years of missing him made him uneasy. Dare to disturb that person so easily, after a lot of hard thinking, he had no choice but to use his son to throw stones first to ask for directions.It happened to be both accidental and inevitable for Meng Zhang to meet.

Fortunately, along the way, he either saw his face full of sadness, or his smirk in a trance, Xu Ji was already used to his out-of-control look.He sniffed and wanted to cry: "Daddy doesn't love me! Brother doesn't love me either!"

Yi Zhen suddenly came to his senses, grabbed him and said nervously, "Are you showing off?"

Xu Ji was taken aback by him, and felt that it would be pointless to continue crying. After thinking about it, he said listlessly, "I guess not..."

Yi Zhen frowned, wondering if he should trust his son with confidence and boldness.

Xu Ji climbed onto his feet and sat down, and then complained to his father: "Daddy won't tell me stories, brother won't take me to play..."

The carriage was already moving forward slowly, Yi Zhen held him in his arms, and said absently: "Anyway, you also saw your father and brother." There were too many things he wanted to ask in his heart, but suddenly I don't know where to start.After a pause, he said softly, "Are they doing well?"

But Xu Ji couldn't quite comprehend the various thoughts churning in his father's heart, he thought for a while and shook his head, and just said: "There is no meat for dinner."

Yi Zhen froze for a moment, then stretched out his hand to pat him on the head, gritted his teeth and said, "Just remember to eat, but still remember the business?" After speaking, he couldn't help but ask, "Where's brother? How is brother?"

"Brother and daddy look alike." Xu Ji stretched out his hand and gestured twice on top of his head. "So tall, thinner than me..."

Yi Zhen's mind couldn't help drifting away, he touched Xu Ji's small face, and sketched the appearance of the eldest son in his mind, his voice trembled with distress: "That's really thin..." Thinking of this, he almost shudders now. I want to see with my own eyes what the eldest son looks like.Regardless of whether he was impatient, he whispered to Xu Ji: "You take a gift to thank you, and find a way to get my brother to come back with you and show it to my father."

Xu Ji nodded of course, then pulled Yi Zhen and said, "Why don't Daddy and the others live with us?"

Yi Zhen knew what he had done in the past, so he couldn't honestly tell his precious son how bad he was to Qin Shu, so he could only vaguely say: "My father did something wrong before, and I had some misunderstandings with your father. As soon as he got angry, he ran out by himself."

"So it was you who bullied daddy." Xu Ji was protecting his father after all, so he believed it as soon as he heard it, and knocked on him twice with his small fist, but the strength was not strong. "Father, I want Daddy to come back to live. Go and admit your mistake sincerely, and bring Daddy and the others back."

"This...he's angry with me, he won't come back so easily, you listen to your father's words and please him obediently, he will come back with you if he doesn't want you..." Yi Zhen didn't dare to take it easy Agreed, saying so, thinking of the situation when Qin Shu refused Xu Ji at the beginning, he couldn't help trembling in his heart. In fact, even he himself had no idea whether this method would work or not.

Only Xu Ji answered with confidence, and then asked doubtfully, "What about brother? Are you bullying brother too?"

"That's not true...he was taken away by that Uncle Meng."

Xu Ji blinked, he has the spirit of a child who always breaks the casserole and asks the end. "Why?"

As for why that is a long story, in fact, at this time, Yi Zhen doesn't care much about Meng Zhang, even if this person may be his mother-killing enemy, his hatred is no longer the same as before strong.Because of this person, Qin Shu is still living in this world in peace today, which is enough.

But Yi Zhen changed his mind. Although the previous arrangements were intentional, but from another perspective, Meng Zhang did save Xu Ji. Out of a certain narrow mind, he didn't want his youngest son to be the most threatening to him. Enemies have too many favors.

"He didn't have a son of his own, so he stole your brother away. He raised him up and down, and he is still my son."

Xu Ji suddenly realized, and nodded firmly in support: "That's right, it's useless to steal it, he is my brother." "It turns out that Uncle Meng is a bad uncle. Father, don't worry, I will try my best to coax daddy and brother back!"

Yi Zhen could pin most of his hopes on his youngest son, he was very relieved to hear that.While asking about yesterday's situation in detail, the two muttered to discuss countermeasures, let the carriage walk slowly, and finally stopped at an unobtrusive street corner.

Yi Zhen stopped talking when he got here, and stared blankly at a storefront through the curtain of the car.Xu Ji seemed absent-minded when talking to him again, often answering irrelevant questions.

Xu Ji found some pastries to eat on the small table beside him, and fell asleep on the couch after eating. When he woke up, someone had already prepared the presents, and someone even inquired about it. Only Liang Xiao was at home, and it was the A good chance to beat.

Yi Zhen knew that Qin Shu would definitely not accept gold and silver belongings for nothing, and the things he chose were ordinary melon and fruit snacks, so he didn't care about being too hasty, so he sent Xu Ji to make another trip that afternoon.It would be the best if Liang Xiao could be brought here today. He missed this eldest son for eight years, and he was going crazy.

Xu Ji's little head didn't think too much about whether it would arouse suspicion. He was fighting high, vowing to pull his brother to his side first, and happily took the order to leave.
