Chapter 617: Pei Ji
The sixth month of the lunar calendar should be the hottest month of the year. The bright sun in the sky can roast the green grass into mass of water vapor.
Looking from a distance, it seemed as if the air was distorted, which was daunting.
On the forest path, two horses, one black and one white, galloped past, and the vision in front of them suddenly became clear. When this path came out, it was the official road.
The blue-gray cement road did not make people feel strange, but the men and women immediately showed long-lost smiles.
"Dalang, what do you think is that?"
Li Yunshang pointed to Shuofang East City not far away, and nearly 100,000 spectators gathered at the city gate, even if they looked from afar, they were very powerful.
Xi Junmai laughed loudly and finally went home. He pulled the reins and signaled the lightning to slow down. He smiled and replied to Li Yunshang: "It should be the celebration that the brothers of the Guardian Team mentioned. I didn't expect Erlang to be so grand."
Li Yunshang learned to put down his speed, looked into the direction of the city gate, and said gently: "I didn't miss homesickly at first, but now I think I can see my parents immediately, but I still think it's better to come back."
Xi Junmai reached out and stroked her hand, saying, "On the way, I have asked someone to inform Erlang of our return. I guess your father and your mother can't wait. After returning, remember not to mention our experience in the world, so as not to worry them."
Li Yunshang held Xi Junbu's big hand in his back hand, nodded obediently, and then tentatively said: "When the children grow up, will we go and see them again? I can't worry about those children..."
Xi Junmai nodded slightly, patted Li Yunshang's little hand, and comforted: "Don't worry, you will be able to see them soon. When I turn around, I will ask Erlang to arrange someone to take the orphans to Shuofang, and then you ask them to read and write, and I will teach them swords, guns, swords and halberds."
Li Yunshang didn't expect that Xi Junmai's rough man had considered this level, and happily snuggled in Xi Junmai's arms and said in a daze: "It's great to have you..."
Xi Junmai smiled silly. In fact, he was selfish in adopting those orphans, but this is a story later!

On the elevated roof, Mu Ziyi and Cheng Yuqi left unknown when they left. After Li Jing and Xi Yunfei discussed some details about issuing banknotes, they turned their heads and realized that they had neglected Cheng Yuqi.
The female guard in charge of the stairs told him that Mu Ziyi had been here and took Cheng Yuqi to the backstage before he felt relieved.
Then, the black iron token in his arms shook for a moment.
"Langjun, the captain and the captain's wife are back, and now they have entered the city."
When Xi Yunfei heard this, he looked overjoyed and turned to greet Li Jing, "Uncle Li, my brother and my sister-in-law are back."
Li Jing was still digesting the information about the change of ownership of the Lu family and Shuofang Bank. He was stunned for a while when Xi Yunfei repeated it again, he was moved a little and said calmly: "It's good to come back, it's good to come back."
Seeing his fists clenched repeatedly, Xi Yunfei said with a funny look: "Don't you go and have a look? My brother wrote to say that my sister-in-law is pregnant."
Li Jing raised his thick eyebrows twice, took a deep breath, and said calmly: "No hurry, let the Wen Po make sure first, so as not to..."
Xi Yunfei shook his head helplessly. The old man was so excited that he didn't want to show it because of his face. Why do fathers have such virtues?
"Okay, if you don't care, I'll go and see it myself. That's my nephew, hehe..."
"You, stinky brat... who said I don't care? You, wait for me!"
The two walked down the stairs one after another, but unexpectedly they met an unexpected person.
"I have seen Mr. Lang!"
Xi Yunfei looked at the octogenarian in front of him, responded politely, and then said curiously: "Mr. I know me?"
However, Li Jing, behind Xi Yunfei, quickly stepped forward, bowed and clasped his fists and said, "Hello Pei Sikong."
Pei Sikong?
Xi Yunfei recalled it before remembering the identity of this old man.
Pei Ji, born in the Pei family in Hedong, was named Xuanzhen, a hero and prime minister of the founding country of the Tang Dynasty. He practiced the "Wudelu" and had a son named Lawyer Pei. Yes, his surname was Pei, and his name was lawyer. Xi Yunfei even thought that the origin of this profession was related to this old man.
However, this old man is not simple. There are not many anecdotes about him, but each one is eye-catching.
"It turns out it's Mr. Pei, who is disrespectful."
Xi Yunfei smiled on his face, but in fact he didn't catch a cold about this old man, but he was an old man after all, so he still had the politeness he should have. After all, respecting the elderly and loving the young is a traditional virtue of the Chinese nation.
Pei Ji seemed to be able to look directly at the heart of the people. Perhaps he felt the distantness in Xi Yunfei's eyes. After observing Xi Yunfei in surprise, he bowed and replied: "Young man, you are polite. I have heard of Xiao Langjun's name for a long time. Today I saw it very different... By the way, the celebration has not ended yet, are you two?"
Xi Yunfei smiled but said nothing, and Li Jing hurriedly explained.
Pei Ji smiled and said, "I should confirm this. I wish my niece a good son as soon as possible. Then don't miss a full moon wine, hahaha..."
Li Jing exchanged a few more greetings with him, and rushed to the city gate with Xi Yunfei.
Before leaving, Xi Yunfei looked at Pei Ji deeply, the old and the young looked at each other for a moment, and then they all smiled against their will.
"Ha, old fox..."
"Ha, little fox..."
Watching Li Jing and Xi Yunfei leave, Pei Ji suddenly felt a little arrogant. There are talented people in the world. How did Xi Yunfei come out? He has not yet come up with any reason.
But now he has abdicated, and for the sake of his family, Xi Yunfei still has to be careful to tie the line.
"Zu Weng? (father)!"
"Oh, you're here."
Pei Ji withdrew his gaze and looked at Pei Qing and Pei Ming, then glanced at Su Xiaonan behind Pei Ming, and a trace of emotion flashed in his heart.
But it quickly closed, frowned, and looked at it, "Are you Xiao Nan?"
"Yes, yes, I've seen Zu..." Su Xiaonan looked nervous.
Pei Ji's disappointment was even heavier in his eyes. Seeing Pei Ming about to speak, he waved his hand and said, "Okay, go up first, what do you think of standing here?"
Pei Ji's eyes were higher than the top, and he actually didn't like Su Xiaonan, his grandson-in-law who came to his door.
Pei Ji's purpose of coming here this time was very clear, which was to explore the reality of Xi Yunfei, and at the same time, he also came to talk to Li Yuan about the past. He didn't care about the marriage between Su Xiaonan and Pei Ming at all.
The group returned to the compartment to prepare. Pei Ji had a gloomy face throughout the whole process and looked at the surrounding layout from time to time.
I saw a red post on the table, so I picked it up and looked at it.
"Well……"
Seeing the news of Lu's change of ownership, Pei Ji's face changed drastically, his eyes twitched a few times, turned his head and asked Pei Qing, "Qing'er, is this true?"
Pei Qing and Pei Ming looked at each other and were stunned for a while. The latter asked carefully: "Zu Weng, aren't you here for this?"
Pei Ji shook his head awkwardly. How could he have come for the Lu family's change of ownership? If he had known that Lu family's change of ownership...
"Ahem!!"
Pei Ji coughed a few times to hide his embarrassment, and suddenly looked at Su Xiaonan with a kind smile and said kindly: "Haha, Xiaonan, I came to Shuofang this time for nothing, just to hurry up and get your wedding with Ming'er. Look, the wedding will be held first in Hedong, and then we will go back to Shuofang to hold a bigger one. Will it be better?!"
