I fell through the tunnel and brought my family to live a good life
Chapter 132 Face it together
During this period of time, despite Tang Wenhao's efforts, he was unable to find out more information about the Han family. After all, it had been ten years since the incident, and many details and memories would become blurred, especially such past events that were deliberately hidden or forgotten. Except for Tang Yang himself, the rest of the people also passed on the information through word of mouth, so with Tang Wenhao's power, this was all he could find out. Tang Wenhao told Shen Xiao the current situation very honestly.
Shen Xiao knew that Tang Wenhao had put a lot of effort into this matter, and he also understood the difficulty and complexity of this investigation. He was grateful for Tang Wenhao's honesty and dedication.
"Wenhao, I am grateful for everything you have done for me."
"There's no need to be so polite between us. It's just that I claim to be your best friend, but I can't help you." Tang Wenhao lowered his head and looked at the ground.
"You've helped me so much. This matter is complicated to begin with, and I always feel guilty that I shouldn't have involved you. My worthless life should have been lost in that fire ten years ago." Shen Xiao stood up and looked out the window.
Shen Xiao's words made Tang Wenhao feel sad. He knew Shen Xiao's inner struggle and pain, and also understood the heavy burden Shen Xiao felt for his family's murder. He gently patted Shen Xiao's shoulder, trying to give him some comfort and strength.
"Shen Xiao, what are you talking about?" Tang Wenhao's voice was firm, "We are best friends, your business is my business. I have never felt that being involved is a burden, on the contrary, I feel it is very meaningful to be able to share your burden."
Tang Wenhao paused and continued, "Shen Xiao, I know this road is difficult to walk, but please believe me, we will definitely be able to find the truth. I will not give up, nor will I let you face it alone. Let's work together, for the Han family, and for ourselves."
After a long time, Shen Xiao nodded.
The two chatted for a while, and Shen Xiao roughly conveyed the contents of the secret letter to Tang Wenhao. Although they didn't have a clear clue yet, Tang Wenhao had realized that this might involve the previous struggle in the court. He pondered for a moment and suddenly thought of a possible entry point.
"Shen Xiao, since the secret letter mentioned the struggle in the court, perhaps we can start the investigation from this aspect." Tang Wenhao said to Shen Xiao seriously, "We can first understand the situation in the court at that time and see which forces may be related to the murder of the Han family."
Shen Xiao nodded in agreement. This was exactly what he meant.
At this time, it was time for dinner. Tang Wenhao noticed that Shen Xiao was still feeling a little heavy, so he decided to take him out to relax. He patted Shen Xiao on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Let's go eat something and relax. Don't always think about these troubles. Things will eventually be resolved."
The two came to a restaurant that had just opened last month. The restaurant was gaining popularity. Tang Wenhao had been there twice to taste the food and thought the dishes were novel and delicious, so he thought of bringing Shen Xiao here to try it.
As soon as he walked into the restaurant, a smart waiter came up to him and greeted him enthusiastically: "Mr. Tang is here! Private room upstairs or the hall downstairs?" Although Tang Wenhao had only been here twice, he was very generous and the waiter was naturally impressed by him.
"Go upstairs and find us a private room along the street." Tang Wenhao replied. He knew that Shen Xiao needed a quiet environment to calm down, and the private room along the street had a wide view, which would help him relax.
"Okay!" The waiter responded and led the two upstairs. In this era, restaurants were also divided into different levels. The private rooms along the street were in a superior location and usually had the highest prices. They could generally accommodate eight people for dinner, but Tang Wenhao didn't care about these.
After the two of them sat down in the private room, Tang Wenhao began to order food. He ordered several signature dishes and some exquisite snacks, all of which were the specialties of this restaurant. Shen Xiao was infected by Tang Wenhao's enthusiasm and began to try to relax.
The waiter in the restaurant quickly and orderly brought the dishes to the table. The colorful dishes exuded an alluring aroma. The two chatted while eating, enjoying this rare leisure time. As Shen Xiao ate the food, his mood gradually became relaxed and happy.
When Shen Xiao picked up a piece of roasted pig's trotter with his chopsticks, his thoughts could not help but drift back to the days when he was at Xu's house. He savored the deliciousness of the roasted pig's trotter, but suddenly thought of the braised pork made by Sister Xu. It was a delicacy that he could not forget, and he could not help but swallow his saliva whenever he thought of it.
"The taste of this roasted pig's trotter reminds me of the braised pork made by Sister Xu." Shen Xiao said with emotion, "It's also roasted pork, but Sister Xu's cooking skills are hard to find elsewhere."
"Braised pork? What braised pork?" Tang Wenhao became interested immediately when he heard that there was a delicacy he had never tasted before, and asked curiously.
"It's the same taste that Sister Xu made when we were at Xu's house before. It was simply amazing!" Shen Xiao recalled the scene at that time and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
"Ah? Why didn't I get to eat it!" Tang Wenhao felt extremely regretful when he heard that he had missed such a delicious dish. He stared at Shen Xiao with wide eyes, as if he wanted to dig out some more details about the braised pork from him.
"You forgot that during the Chinese New Year, my grandfather and I stayed at the Xu family for a while. During that time, Sister Xu cooked a lot of delicious food for us, including that braised pork." Shen Xiao looked at Tang Wenhao's regretful expression and deliberately teased him.
Tang Wenhao was almost drooling, "Forget it, forget it, eat less at noon, don't eat those dishes over there, pack them up later and take them back for Tang Xiaowu and the others."
Shen Xiao didn't understand what he said, so Tang Wenhao explained, "Eat less at noon, we'll go to Xu's house later and ask Sister Xu to make braised pork."
Shen Xiao was dumbfounded. This was so funny that Tang Wenhao wanted to go to Xu's house for dinner.
Tang Wenhao quickly asked someone to pack up the uneaten dishes and the braised pig's trotter that he had only picked up with chopsticks. He went to eat the braised pork in the evening. He did not eat the pig's trotter that he had eaten at noon. The two of them finished their meal with the two stir-fried vegetarian dishes in front of them.
After paying the money, Tang Wenhao sent someone to buy pork. The pork with three layers of streaky meat was the most fragrant when roasted. Shen Xiao sighed that Tang Wenhao's execution ability was too strong.
