67.

There is a word in this world,? It's called "near hometown feeling timid".

Now An Ran can probably understand what kind of cowardice it is.

He shrank in the passenger cab, resting his head on the window glass. Li Feng and his car had parked in the parking area, and Ms. Xi Liu'an was talking on the phone with her back turned to An Ran.

There was a loud noise from the car body, and he turned his head again. Xi Zhaowu had already got out of the car and closed the door from the outside.

He was the only one left in the spacious Land Rover.

"Here we are." Xi Chaowu stood in front of the passenger's door, knocked on the window glass, "It's all right, come down."

An Ran didn't speak, just stared at the tall silhouette in front of her, then turned her gaze to herself in the rear-view mirror.

When he came out in the afternoon, he deliberately changed into a high-necked sweater to cover his hickey marks. Clothes with a hat always look young.

It's a pity that An Ran doesn't really want to be young now, and being young makes him out of place here.

An Ran looked at the people in the rearview mirror for a long time, and finally, like the head of a family, she pressed the car door and walked out.

Xi Zhaowu didn't speak, but glanced at him sideways, took his hand and walked towards Xi Liu'an...

It was evening now, and the setting sun was slanting towards the Longtou Lake in front of it, and the sparkling light was beautiful.

"...But we're all in the store! Why do you have to go home first!" Xi Liu'an complained to the phone, while rolling his eyes at Xi Chaowu.

The person on the phone didn't know what to say,? The little girl frowned and muttered, "Then tell him yourself, it's not that I want to break his legs!"

An Ran frowned, and glanced at Xi Chaowu. The child was still paralyzed.

Xi Chaowu opened his mouth to comfort: "No."

An Ran recalled the fear of being dominated by the stick, raised her head and asked in a low voice:

"How long has it been since you came back? If you really want to fight, remember to pretend to be cowardly!"

"..." Xi Zhaowu was noncommittal, and said to Li Feng who was walking over, and motioned to go.

Li Feng bent down to pick up his things, and smiled teasingly at them: "You really dare to go back? And bring a male daughter-in-law?"

Xi Zhaowu's expression remained unchanged, he picked two lightweight bags and stuffed them into An Ran's hands, saying, "Well, I'm bringing a dowry anyway."

safely:"......"

An Ran didn't want to be disturbed by Li Feng, she raised her head suddenly, and happened to meet Ms. Xi Liu'an who put down the phone...

Xi Liu'an didn't seem to notice his nervousness and blushing, but he still eagerly withdrew the hand that was tightly held by Xi Zhaowu.

"You don't want to take it, let's just take it!" An Ran smiled flatteringly at Ms. Xi Liu'an, racking her brains to open up a conversation with her, "I've been in the car, do you want to eat something?"

On the way to the store in the parking area, there is a fried skewer shop, which was Ms. Xi Lu'an's favorite in the past.An Ran didn't mention it, but he had quietly prepared the change in the car before.

However, that fried skewer shop has long since been updated and turned into a small pottery shop with a good business.

The thing that was used to threaten Ms. Xi Liu'an's obedience was gone, as if his strength had slapped him in the face, and things were different.

An Ran followed them towards the shops, only to find that although the street hadn't changed much, many of the shops she was familiar with had disappeared.

Among them, his "Kyushu One Seat" restaurant is also included.

"Kyushu One Seat" was closed three years ago. The old prince of the shop made his own decision and gave it to a friend from the former vegetable market.

However, the homestay in the backyard is still there, and Xi Zhaowu invited a manager to let the old man manage the accounts himself.

The old man lived in the store most of the time, and only when Xi Liu'an came back did he stay at home with his granddaughter for a few days.

A few people walked slowly towards the B&B. Some tourists along the way always cast scorching glances at these handsome men and beautiful women who are not easy to mess with.

The brothers and sisters of the Xi family bear the brunt, but Li Feng is mostly the one who loves to tease girls.

An Ran was like a stranger visiting her boyfriend's house for the first time, chatting with Ms. Xi Liu'an non-stop.He used inquiring as an excuse to comfort the lost five years.

Xi Liu'an would answer most of the questions, but he didn't talk much, almost succinct and straight to the point.

He used to be soft and talkative, but now he is more than polite and not friendly to him.

Turning another corner is the alley where the B&B is located.

Xi Liu'an was introducing the "Jiuzhou Yixi" which had been changed into an ordinary hotel, but was stopped by the commotion inside. The center of the commotion was An Ran's homestay. They walked quickly, and the small courtyard was already crowded with a crowd people.

"Get out! Get out! Mahler Gobi, if it had been a few years earlier, I would have screwed your pig's head off!"

"...You old bastard, you took over my child's shop and beat people!"

The voice behind them was as powerful as a rainbow, obviously it was their old man who had been punishing the family all year round!

Xi Chaowu and Li Feng stepped in first, An Ran hurriedly took Xi Liu'an's hand, and dragged him behind.

Xi Liu'an made a tough move, and finally, under An Ran's "don't make trouble", he also died down.

Probably due to the large number of people, the woman who spoke earlier even started to cry, her piercing voice was not very familiar to An Ran:

"Everyone, come and judge, this old man is very bad! When my eldest son was alive, he took the two younger ones to rely on him! My son was only fifteen or sixteen years old. Cooking, looking up at those two white-eyed wolves in their teens!!! Now it’s good, the big white-eyed wolf insisted on going to a big city to go to school, forcing my son to go with him, but he came back with a dead body!!!”

"Shut up!" The old man was probably very angry, and his voice was raised, "Don't mention my grandson! Are you going to get out! If you don't get out today, I will—"

An Ran led Xi Liu'an, not daring to suddenly squeeze into the crowd, wondering if this "eldest son" or "eldest grandson" was herself.

"Grandpa!" Xi Zhaowu's voice sounded at the right time, causing the noisy crowd to silence.

An Ran stood on the outside, couldn't see the scene inside, but was laughed out loud by Xi Zhaowu's abrupt "Grandpa".

"Hahaha..." An Ran caught a glimpse of Xi Liu'an looking at him strangely, so she leaned over and explained, "Listen to your brother, do you want the gourd baby to be called grandpa! Hahaha..."

Xi Liu'an: "..."

An Ran, who didn't get an answer or a smiling face, touched her nose in embarrassment, and squeezed in while the crowd was stunned.

Xi Zhaowu stood at the front of the crowd, looking down at the woman sitting on the ground with Cha. Legs: "Your son has been released again?"

The woman raised her head and looked at the mat Zhaowu, and seemed to move her body behind in fear.

An Ran also looked at the person sitting on the ground. The woman was about five or sixty years old, and she was still wearing a late summer long-sleeved shirt, and the pants were men's, with a large portion of growth.

He thought about it, but he didn't remember who this skinny old lady was.

"This is my elder brother's stepmother," Xi Liu'an said in a moderate voice, as if answering An Ran's doubts, "I've been here several times in the past few years, and they said it was for alimony."

An Ran stared at the old lady for a long time, and finally found some impressions of this woman from the corners of her memory.

Isn't this Comrade Chen Cui Hongcai!That Xiao Anran's father's new wife.

An Ran pulled Ms. Xi Lu'an back a big step, he remembered that Comrade Chen Cuicai had the problem of "easily scared to urinate"!

"Damn girl, I want you to talk more!" Chen Cuicai twisted her neck and spat at the two of them, "Isn't the stepmother a mother! I and his dead ghost father are serious couples, he didn't say no to supporting me, but you How many mouths!"

An Ran instinctively wanted to laugh at her, but was stared at by the old prince's scorching gaze...

He looked back guiltily, and the old man immediately raised his feet and walked towards him.The old man who was in high spirits back then, now has gray temples and deep nasolabial folds on his puffy cheeks - old, but even scarier!

An Ran hesitated to take a small step back, suppressed a smirk and said, "Old, old man..."

"Well," the old prince was holding a small stick in his hand, looked at An Ran and shook it twice, "Are you the one who came back with the brat?"

An Ran nodded silently.

The old man looked him up and down, glanced away and said: "Then you should go back quickly, that kid is not sincere to you!"

safely:"......"

An Ran probably knew why the other party made such remarks, so she didn't say much, pointing to Chen Cuicai on the ground and asked, "Aren't you going to call the police?" Anyway, we are familiar with the Municipal Bureau!

"Report, it's useless!" The old man put the stick under his arm, took off the ear and lit a cigarette, "She is less courageous than a mouse. She neither dares to hit anyone nor smash things. The old Shengtou's house Boy, I’ve been here several times, but I’m too lazy to come here!”

An Ran nodded, after all, the barbaric citizens, as long as they don't break the law, the police uncle also wants to protect them.

He looked up at Xi Zhaowu, the child seemed to want him to stand out, but he just looked back at him with a smile.

"Why don't you find a place to sit down and talk!" An Ran asked the old man, "It's not a problem to have so many people around! Mainly it's the first time I come to Chaowu's hometown, so I'm embarrassed by the crowd... ..."

The old man glanced at An Ran several times, as if he wanted to see where this person was "sorry".

In the end, he decided that this person's face was white and thick-skinned, so that "sorry" could not be obvious.

Relying on the tenderness of her face, An Ran stupefied Chen Cuicai for a moment.

She had probably forgotten what Xiao Anran looked like, so she cheerfully followed Anran to make friends: "Little brother, I think you have a kind face! Do you have a good relationship with the Xi family?"

An Ran was too lazy to turn around: "Which one is the Xi family?"

"Any one will do!" Chen Cuicai looked back at the people behind him defensively, and muttered in a low voice, "Every normal person in their family got rich with my family's money and shop! But their men have problems, they can't Healthy! You—why are you tripping me?"

"What about me?" An Ran looked down at the people crawling on the ground, the old man and Xi Liu'an were no longer there, and he didn't bother to pretend to be a grandson, "I didn't just trip you, you forgot the past, in the old house, eh? "

The author has something to say: An Ran: I think someone said I am a mother?Oh, sorry, I mainly have a man! ! !
