Chapter 597: Bumping into Someone's Arms
"Oh, come on, come on! Your sudden reaction scared me!" Han Qiguang took out a pancake and took a bite, mumbling, "Have you offered the ring I asked you to pass on last time?"
Xie Yuchuan glanced at him and said in a low voice, "Yeah."
"I offered it to you, but you didn't respond."
Xie Yuchuan was silent.
Han Qiguang glanced at him and took another big bite. "Your reaction just now was a bit too big."
"Food can't stop you from eating?"
"Oh, you've even learned to ask me back. There's something going on here." Han Qiguang kept rubbing salt into Xie Yuchuan's wounds. "Is there really something wrong with the family god? Is he too busy to take care of us?"
Who is he, Han Qiguang?
It was Xie Yuchuan who had been hanging out with him and doing evil things since they were playing in the mud. Just by the tone of his voice, Han Qiguang could tell even with just half an ear.
A soft sigh came from the side.
Han Qiguang took out another pancake and handed it to Xie Yuchuan.
Xie Yuchuan lowered his head.
"Where did you get it? It even has oil and chopped green onions."
"The kitchen in Dazhai!" Han Qiguang raised his eyebrows and smiled, "It smells so good!"
Upon hearing this, Xie Yuchuan didn't ask any more questions. He took it, took a bite, chewed it twice, his eyes moved slightly, and he lowered his head to stare at the pancake in his hand.
Han Qiguang laughed and said, "Is it because there is too much oil and sugar that it smells so good?"
"Let me tell you, when Li Caigang handed it to me, I had the same expression as you, but I felt relieved after eating it. These bastards, the local tycoons really have it easy."
Xie Yuchuan pondered for a moment and said calmly, "The looting was very good."
"That's right, don't you see who brought this person out?"
Han Qiguang looked proud.
Hundreds of brothers around hid in the bushes under the trees. The leaves were sparse in winter, and if it weren't for the black clothes that were camouflaged against the ground, they would have been easily exposed.
However, there was thick fog in the mountains, and outsiders could not see anything unless they got close.
The scouts were sent far away and used the birdsong in the mountains as a signal. They waited for half an hour without seeing the sunlight.
"The thick fog blocks the sun. The location of this forest was chosen deliberately." Xie Yuchuan stood with his hands behind his back, squinting his eyes and observing silently for a long time before saying.
"The people who were released came back and said that there was no problem down the mountain."
After giving his orders to his men, Han Qiguang stepped forward and stood side by side with Xie Yuchuan. He was no longer as casual as he was half an hour ago. He looked ahead with a serious gaze for a long time, and still felt that something was not right.
"Don't mind me telling the truth."
"You say." Xie Yuchuan nodded.
Han Qiguang turned and stared at him, saying, "This doesn't feel right. I really need the help of the gods."
Xie Yuchuan thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "I'll try."
"I'll arrange for a few people to take a closer look."
Under the thick fog, several dark shadows quietly approached to investigate.

At the foot of Changshan, the villagers who woke up in the early morning had already gotten up early to make a fire and cook.
When I woke up, the ground, which was covered with snow yesterday, was now covered with ashes from firecrackers. The smell of burning in the air was like the earth was scorched, and the strong smell of the New Year was everywhere.
There was frost on the windows, it was cold outside and warm inside. On the warm kang covered with a brocade quilt, a big and a small person were sleeping soundly with their heads touching.
Someone outside the door peeked into the yard and asked in a low voice, "Are you still awake?"
The auntie who was picking vegetables nodded with a smile on her face and said, "They played for a while when they came back yesterday before going to bed. It's just dawn now. How many of you kids who come back from the city get up so early?"
Qin Lang thought about it and agreed.
He said to the landlady with a smile, "I'll go see her off first. When she wakes up, Aunt Miao, please tell her that I might have to stay another day before returning."
Aunt Miao asked, "Aren't you guys going together?"
"A friend has something to do, so go back first. If she's not awake, don't call her. I'll go see her off and then I'll be back."
"Okay, go ahead and don't worry. I'll talk to the little girl when she wakes up."
Qin Lang took another look inside, but could see nothing but frost covering the windows.
"Aunt, I'm leaving."
"Take care."
Qin Lang turned around and strode back to the house of Qin Jian, the young Qin's grandfather. As soon as he arrived at the door, the uncle and nephew of the Lei family were standing at the door saying goodbye to Qin Jian, his father, Comrade Lao Qin and others.
When Qin Lang came back, Lei Feng turned around and looked at him without asking anything. He probably guessed that at this time, the other party might not have woken up yet.
Qin Lang asked, "Are you coming back too?"
Lei Feng shook his head, "I'm seeing my uncle off, and he asked me to stay and help Miss Tu."
Qin Lang nodded.
As for what Qin Lang was doing, the two of them neither asked nor said anything, as long as they knew it in their hearts.
Lei Jin did not see Tu Huan before he left. Although he felt regretful, he was also very happy to meet her. Before leaving, he left the parting gift he wanted to give to his nephew Lei Feng.
"Since Miss Tu has asked our Lei family for help in this matter, please put aside your recent work and help out."
"Don't worry, uncle."
He understood his uncle's temper. He came here on behalf of the Lei family, so he had to let go of a huge matter now.
Lei Jin kept him because he wanted him to watch what kind of "big thing" Miss Tu encountered.
Lei Jin left, but Tu Huan and Li Yuanying were still asleep.
Qin Jian put on gloves and said, "I'm going to the village to help out and will be back soon." Then he left.
The others thought for a second.
"Play mahjong?"
…
“Zizi—”
In the kitchen, the boiling kettle made a rapid puffing sound.
Bubbles swelled in the narrow transparent kettle.
In the steaming hot room, Tu Huan, who was sleeping, couldn't help but frown. Under her eyelids, her eyeballs were slightly moving, as if she would open her eyes and wake up in the next moment.
However, after waiting for a long time, there was still no movement.
Aunt Miao, who was passing by on her way back to the house, walked from the door to the kitchen and made breakfast quietly.
Thinking about the "accommodation fee" that the guest forced into his pocket yesterday, which he didn't intend to collect, the smile on his lips never disappeared.
The guest gave such a generous gift. Aunt Miao thought to herself that she must try the authentic breakfast when she woke up early.
Tu Huan woke up.
But she woke up from a dream.
The moment she woke up, she didn't realize what was wrong with her at first. It took her a while to realize that she was still in a dream.
For the first time in my life, I had a double dream. When I woke up, I realized that I was still dreaming.
The reason why it took some effort was mainly because when she "woke up", the environment around her was too familiar.
Isn't this the room where she stayed last night?
What's more, bow your head.
Li Yuanying was still sleeping soundly beside her. The child, perhaps because of body heat or the hot kang beneath him, had kicked the quilt aside long ago.
Tu Huan sat on the kang and hesitated for a while before getting up, pushing the door and walking out.
I just passed by the landlady who was returning to the kitchen.
I could even hear him muttering to himself, "What on earth did these children of the Qin family eat to grow up? They are all so good-looking. These young men are so rare to look at."
Tu Huan kept "watching" the other person go to the stove before turning back.
This scene... has some problems.
She tentatively called out, "System?"
At the same time, the dim screen of the mobile phone placed next to the pillow on the kang suddenly lit up.
In this trance-like atmosphere, a message alert tone that Tu Huan was familiar with suddenly rang out.
【bite--】
From Xie Yuchuan.
Tu Huan pushed open the door, and after a flash of light appeared before her eyes, the scene inside the door suddenly changed.
The bluestone floor tiles are shiny and bright.
In the dark space, there was a boy about the same age as Li Yuanying, lying face down on a futon and snoring.
Outside the antique wooden door, an anxious voice came from afar.
"Brother! Chuan'er is still young, and his family has already punished him by making him kneel in the ancestral hall all night! Isn't that enough?"
“Big Brother!!!”
"It takes two to tango. If someone hadn't really angered Xiaoliu, he wouldn't have done that! Trust me this time. It's really not Xiaoliu's fault this time! Brother!"
Seeing that he couldn't stop it, he shouted, "Xiao Liu! Hide quickly!"
This shout suddenly woke up the child on the mat.
Tu Huan stood in front of him, looked down at the young version of Xie Yuchuan, and suddenly smiled.
Hearing the voice, little Xie Yuchuan turned around, wiped the corner of his mouth, and suddenly came back to his senses with his confused eyes!
He jumped up from the ground and turned around to find a hiding place.
Unexpectedly, this time, I bumped into someone's arms...
