Chapter 445 He Can't Let Go
His hair was white as frost, he was thin and frail, and his body was shaking under the strong wind and heavy rain.
If the wind and rain were stronger, they would be able to defeat that figure.
"It's the eldest princess! What happened? It's raining so hard, who let her run out?"
Su Wu looked at the panicked old woman who was stumbling in the rain and desperately grabbing passers-by to ask questions one by one. He gritted his teeth, turned over and was about to jump out of the window.
There was a figure that was faster than her.
Tianbao grabbed Su Wuhou's collar and quietly watched the figure in white rushing into the rain and running towards the old woman, a smile on the corner of her mouth.
When you are confused, just follow your heart.
This is Bai Yu’s heart.
"Let's go, let's go down too," she said.
Su An was stunned for a moment, then a smile appeared on his face as bright as the sun. "I've had enough tea, let's go!"
Su Wen shook his clothes and acted sophisticated. "To be frank, I had a feeling it wouldn't be that easy to get away."
"You're just talking after the fact, hahaha, let's go!" Su Wu was too lazy to go down the stairs through the door, so he just jumped down from the window.
Xiao Mai Sui rolled her eyes at his back and took Bing'er downstairs. "Bing'er, today I'm going to teach you another word. I'm going to tell you what the "torture trick" means!"
Bing'er's eyes widened. "A trick of inflicting pain on one's flesh? Meat is fragrant, how can it be bitter?"
"Hehehe! Never mind whether it's sweet or bitter, the point this time is to make people swallow it happily!" A wisp of green smoke drifted by, so fast that it was hard to see clearly.
There were only two people left in the tea room.
"What are you doing here, Master Bai? Are you planning to be a stone sculpture?" Godfather Bai walked out with one hand behind his back, his robe swaying gracefully as he walked. "An ugly daughter-in-law must eventually meet her parents-in-law, but Master Bai, there's no need to feel ashamed of yourself. You're not ugly, just a little old."
Bai Kui, "..."
"Hey, we're family after all, can't you speak with a little more humanity?" Bai Kui chased after him, hooked his arm around the man's shoulder, and said in a friendly and generous manner, "Changdong!"
Bai Xiaofeng, "..."
As we walked out of the teahouse, the rain outside began to subside.
The boys and girls rushed into the rain without umbrellas, chasing each other down the street, ignoring the strange looks from those around them. The oppression and heaviness they had felt when they walked away was gone, as if a heavy burden had been lifted from their shoulders, leaving only relief. It was like the sun shining brightly after the rain.
Bai Xiaofeng looked at the carriage parked alone on the side of the road and snorted with a laugh, "The old and the young are both out of place. It seems that since there are only two of us in the carriage, it is actually quite spacious."
Bai Kui laughed heartily, "You have always had such a weird temper, from your youth till now."
"snort."
"Hahaha, get in the car!... Eh? Not going to the princess's mansion?"
"This rain won't last long. We can set off once it stops. Why go to the dock and wait? Why are you going back and forth?"
…
The heavy rain stopped around noon, the dark clouds in the sky dispersed, and the sun shone through.
The transport ship moored near the dock slowly left the shore after a horn sounded.
The second princess and her daughter stood at the dock and watched the transport ship go away. They could still vaguely see the bow of the ship in the distance, which was lively and jubilant.
"Mom, they are all so happy." Feng Hongqiang smiled.
The second princess flicked her sleeves and raised the corners of her lips, "The happiest person is your aunt."
"I didn't expect there would be a mistake. If my aunt hadn't sent us away, my cousin and the others would have left long ago."
"No, even if Yu'er hadn't seen your aunt looking for someone in the rain, he would have turned back." The Second Princess smiled, her eyes crawling up to the corners of her mouth. "He can't let go."
"Why?"
"Because he's a member of our Feng family. Besides, the companions around him are all tough on the outside but soft on the inside."
After a brief chat with her daughter, the boat was no longer visible on the canal. The second princess got back on the carriage and said, "Let's go to the palace."
"Mom, are you going to look for Third Aunt? What for?"
"What else can I do? Send her some snacks so she won't be able to sleep at night!"
“…Puff!”
Although Xiling was under martial law everywhere, the journey was smooth because of the presence of the eldest princess.
The eldest princess had never traveled far, but since she boarded the ship and sailed on the canal, her spirits and spirits have become better and better day by day. She looks radiant and seems like a different person compared to when they first met in Du'an City.
In the afternoon of October, the river is full of sparkling light.
The sun shining on the deck was less scorching than in midsummer and was warm.
A group of young and old sat on the bow of the boat, basking in the sun and chatting.
The old woman, wearing a cotton skirt with precious patterns, was very skilled in sitting cross-legged on a mat. If she didn't say it, no one would know that she was the eldest princess of noble status.
"Where will we land next time? Will we go fishing again?" the old woman asked excitedly while eating fresh fruit.
Du Buqin sighed, "Isn't it easy to fish? You can just set up your fishing rod in the boat and fish! We fish for the fun of it, whether we can actually catch fish or not is not important!"
"But I still want to go shopping. For so many years, due to my status, I haven't even left Du'an City except for royal sacrifices and memorial services. Now that I'm out, I want to see more." The old woman smiled, her eyes full of longing. "I didn't know how vast and beautiful the mountains and rivers outside are until I went out."
Little Wheat Ear boasted happily, "Of course! Different places have different beauties! I'm only young. If I were the same age as my sisters, I would have traveled to and seen many more places by now!"
"Well, tell me how far you've traveled."
Bing'er giggled, "Aunt Feng, have you forgotten again? We've talked about this many times. We've been to Shudao, Dongpu, and this state and that city!"
The old woman also smiled and said, "Remember, remember. I want to listen to it more times. I never get tired of it!"
Waves of laughter from the bow drifted into the cabin, and the men sitting opposite each other on the low table couldn't help but smile.
Bai Xiaofeng waved his jade fan and sipped his teacup slowly and leisurely. "You've been on the boat for a month, Master Bai. You've been hiding from your son for a month too. Are you planning to stay hidden any longer?"
Bai Kui refused to admit it. "Look at what you said. Why am I shrinking back? I, Bai Kui, have been in the martial arts world for decades. I always speak and act in an open and honest manner. There is nothing I can't tell others! If I don't say it, then there is nothing to say."
"Oh."
"Are you laughing at me?"
"No, I'm just laughing at my own shortsightedness. I was actually pitted against a coward like that and fought him for decades in the inner city."
"You're definitely not getting any younger."
The two looked at each other, turned their heads away and both laughed.
yes.
Neither of them is young anymore.
But he is still as angry as he was back then.
To put it bluntly, no one wants to admit that they are old.
Bai Kui was a rough man, but when he wasn't pretending, he looked generous even when drinking tea, always gulping it down. "You should have guessed my background pretty well, so it doesn't make any difference whether I tell you or not. Otherwise, do you think my little ancestor would let me go so easily? He's been on the boat for so many days without saying a word to me?"
"Didn't he deliberately avoid mentioning it to you? It's like a death row inmate, every minute the execution is delayed, the more suffering they endure. That feeling is even more painful than being beheaded directly."
“…”
Old Poison was right, this bastard Bai Xiaofeng was best at shooting sneak attacks.
Damn it, can we still have a good chat?
You won't let people feel better. What kind of heart do you have?
Don't even think about alienating the relationship between him and his son!
