"Yeah," Xu Yan nodded.

Then, he found a half-sized porcelain basin from the cupboard where bowls were kept. Just as he was about to pour out the soup, Xie Zhuo took the spoon from him.

"Let me do it," Xie Zhuo ladled the soup into the basin, then quickly poured water and cleaned the pot.

Xu Yan stood by for a long time and couldn't help.

When Xie Zhuo went out with his backpack and bicycle, Wang Cuilan, Zhao Daming and others had already left.

He didn't think much of it and just rode his bike to the city.

He arrived at the destination, a three-kilometer journey, in less than twenty minutes, but a small incident occurred when he was going to look for Lao He.

A man took a fancy to the mushrooms in his basket and wanted to buy some, but he said he had already promised them to someone else. The man insisted that he could pay more and sell the mushrooms to him first.

He also said that his mother had been craving for some mushrooms recently and had been talking about it for several days, so he asked if he could be kind enough to sell her some.

After hearing what he said, Xie Zhuo no longer refused forcefully.

After all, he didn't really sell these mushrooms to Lao He. He just carried them here every time and carried them back when he left.

But forget about selling it.

He directly handed the man a handful of mushrooms on the top layer without charging him any money. When the man insisted on paying, he waved his hand and said, "No, it's not enough. The others have already been given to others, so I can only give you these."

After saying that, he left without looking back.

If you look into the details, this matter is not a big deal, but when Xie Zhuo was walking towards Lao He, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

I can’t tell what’s wrong, but I just feel like I can’t go to Lao He’s place today.

Thinking of this, he turned around and looked behind him. There was nothing behind him, and it was quiet.

Xie Zhuo walked around the alley, and when he came out, he went straight to the bookstore where Xu Yan had bought the book before.

There were only a few bookstores in the country at that time, but there was one in this small county. The main reason was that there was a man from the county who went to City B to be an official. Later, he probably wanted to do something for his hometown, so he opened such a bookstore.

Xie Zhuo was not very clear about the specific situation.

"How did you come?"

Xie Wei Fu was sleeping in a recliner. When he heard footsteps, he opened his eyes and saw Xie Zhuo.

"Come to see you," Xie Zhuo said, and then he found a chair and sat down, then said, "I got married yesterday."

Xie Wei Fu stared at him for a long time without saying anything, and finally nodded slowly.

The sun was scorching and there were few people on the street. The occasional figures were either going to the corner to buy popsicles or had to go out for something else. Basically, they jogged into the sun and then jogged away.

Only one person...

The man who bought mushrooms from him just now was actually wandering around the street corner under the scorching sun.

From time to time, he glanced over here.

Xie Zhuo frowned.

I secretly wondered if there was some problem with Lao He.

This kind of thing had never happened in his previous life. Could it be that because he was reborn, a butterfly effect occurred, which led to the accident?

Xie Zhuo kept keeping an eye on the man's movements.

"If Yaozu were still alive," Xie Weifu suddenly said, "the child would probably be two or three years old now."

Xie Zhuo came back to his senses, "That's not necessarily true."

He looked up and saw the old man staring at him.

"There's no point in glaring at me," Xie Zhuo said. "With his nerdy look, he probably thinks getting married is worse than reading a book."

Xie Wei Fu stopped talking.

After a while, he started laughing.

Indeed, if his Yaozu were really still alive, he would probably not have married yet, he really loved reading.

This is also the reason why he only talked about his son with Xie Zhuo. Xie Zhuo was not like other people who, after hearing his words, said with a mixture of pity and sympathy, "Yeah, it's a pity. You should also think more positively."

Only Xie Zhuo's tone was very casual every time he spoke, which always gave him the illusion that his son was still there.

"Your wife," Xie Weifu thought for a moment, and then talked about Xu Yan's previous visit to buy books, "buy those books..."

"She just had nothing to do at home and read it casually," Xie Zhuo said, "after all, other books were not available for purchase."

Xie Wei Fu glanced at him.

Finally, he didn't know what he thought of, but he finally stood up from the recliner and waved at Xie Zhuo, "Come with me."

Although Xie Zhuo was a little confused, he still followed.

When he came out again, all the mushrooms in the backpack had been replaced by books, all kinds of books. If Xie Zhuo was not very strong, he would not have been able to carry them all.

"Let her read these more," Xie Weifu said, "It's better to read less high school textbooks, otherwise she will dream about the college entrance examination every day, which will easily cause trouble."

Xie Zhuo wasn't sure whether Xu Yan was in trouble or not, but he felt that something really happened to Lao He.

Not long after he rode his bike away from the bookstore, he saw the man who had been standing on the corner of the street come into the bookstore and talk to Lao Xie.

Obviously he went there to ask about him.

Xie Zhuo's expression turned cold.

I pedaled the bike very fast, and when I got home, I realized it only took me ten minutes.

When Xu Yan saw him coming back with a basket of books, he was a little surprised. Just as he was about to ask, he saw that Xie Zhuo's face didn't look good.

Xu Yan turned around and bolted the door.

Then he helped Xie Zhuo take down the backpack and lowered his voice a little, "What happened?"

"Something may have happened to Lao He," Xie Zhuo took out all the books from the backpack, then revealed the watch box inside, "The things haven't been delivered yet."

Xu Yan's expression was also a little tense.

She knew who Lao He was, but she had no idea what kind of person he was. If something really happened to him, would Xie Zhuo be involved?

Xie Zhuo took out the watch box, then turned around and took out the savings passbook and all the cash in the camphor wood box.

When he brought the money back and gave it to Xu Yan, Xu Yan said that it was not safe to keep it with her, and she couldn't carry the passbook and money with her every day, so she gave it to Xie Zhuo for safekeeping.

Xie Zhuo simply locked himself in the box.

It seems that this place is still not very safe.

What if there is something fishy going on with Lao He, and he is reported by someone, and a large amount of cash is found in his house...

day!

For the first time, I felt that too much money was too hot.

Xu Yan and Xie Zhuo had similar ideas. After thinking for a long time, they still couldn't figure out where to hide these things.

That’s it. Fortunately, I didn’t bring the small box back, otherwise it would have been even more troublesome.

"Why don't we dig a cellar or something?" Xu Yan suggested, "Or just dig a hole in the yard and bury it first."

Just when they had agreed to hide the money, someone came into the village and started asking where Xie Zhuo's house was.

Seeing that the two people were strangers, some asked a few more questions, but it was obvious that the two people didn't want to talk more about their own affairs, and only asked a few questions about Xie Zhuo's situation.

"Xie Lao San got married yesterday. He was very grand when he married his wife. He picked up the bride on a bicycle and even bought a radio and other things."

"It's his wife..."
