"Two years ago, I rented out several houses. Some people rented them out for cheap prices, so it was a little income."

"Our home location is a bit off, but the transportation is quite convenient, so someone should be renting it."

"Yes, but the rain has been heavy in the past two years, and the house leaks are quite severe. People who rented the house used to buy computers for others and even lost money. In addition, my barbecue stall earned enough money, so I simply stopped renting it. I live alone and it was clean."

Xia Jiancheng was muttering.

Xia Xiaoxi nodded.

"I've been back for several years." Xia Xiaoxi smiled slightly.

"Yes, after you left, the family has been deserted. Yiyi didn't go back to live at the beginning. She was the only one with me and your grandparents at home, and now I'm the only one left."

Xia Jiancheng sighed deeply, "One person will inevitably be deserted, but one person also has its own benefits. Do you still remember the jar at our door?"

"Remember, it is said that it was passed down from ancestors and has never been thrown away." Xia Xiaoxi replied.

"I got lotus flowers in that jar. They bloom beautifully every summer. Unfortunately, it's winter now and you can't see lotus flowers."

Xia Jiancheng smiled with some regret.

Xia Xiaoxi pursed her lips, "I haven't been back for a long time, and suddenly I want to go back and take a look."

"Okay, if you are not in a hurry to go home, go back and have a look. I can cook. I will cook a few dishes for you to try." Xia Jiancheng stared at Xia Xiaoxi happily.

Xia Xiaoxi turned her head forward, "Master Tian, ​​drive the car to our house. Do you know the address?"

"Madam, isn't this good? The gentleman said, let you go home after going to the cemetery."

"It's okay. If you go, go home. It won't take long. Since the gentleman agrees to me to come out, it's okay to come out for a while."

"Okay, tell me the address." Master Tian had no choice but to agree, after all, Xia Xiaoxi was the hostess.

Xia Xiaoxi told the master the address and drove to Xia Xiaoxi's home.

After getting off the car, Xia Jiancheng helped Xia Xiaoxi out of the car.

The bodyguards all came down.

"Don't go in. Our house is not big. If you go in like this, it will be inconvenient for me to talk. I'll go in and go around, and it won't take too long."

Xia Xiaoxi ordered.

The bodyguards looked at each other, "Madam, then hurry up. If there is anything, remember to call us."

"Okay, you're waiting for me at the door, I'll come when I go."

Xia Xiaoxi and Xia Jiancheng entered the yard together.

Perhaps it was because she was worried about being suspected that Xia Jiancheng opened the door directly and could see the whole yard at a glance from the door.

The jar at the door was still there, and Xia Xiaoxi saw a defeated lotus inside.

"It will sprout again in spring next year. This thing is cold-resistant and cannot die. It will bloom again next summer. I will ask you to see you when the time comes."

Xia Xiaoxi held her waist and nodded, "Okay."

"Slow down."

Xia Xiaoxi looked around and found that there were many flower pots in the yard, and some of the plants inside had withered.

Xia Jiancheng smiled embarrassedly, "I feel bored alone, and I am just playing with it. There are nothing left in winter. There are still a few pots in the house. They are green all year round, but they don't bloom."

"It must be very beautiful in summer, right? It must be better than before at home."

"Yes, the servants in the family only planted some things that were easy to support, and I had no interest in these before."

The servants outside the door didn't care when they saw that they were having a good chat.

"Xiao Xi, are you thirsty? I'll go in and pour you a glass of water."

As he said that, Xia Jiancheng went straight into the door, and Xia Xiaoxi followed him and walked in.

The place to enter the door is an old-fashioned mahogany chair. Xia Xiaoxi still remembers that when she was young, her grandfather often sat here to drink tea, and her father occasionally sat here to read books.

All the arrangements in the living room have not changed, and they are still the same.

These things look so old and full of the sense of the times.

"Xiao Xi, the water is a little hot, you can drink it later." Xia Jiancheng brought Xia Xiao Xi a glass of water.

"Hey, sit down and take a rest." Xia Xiaoxi said.

The two of them talked about their childhood and laughed from time to time.

The bodyguards outside the door could even hear the chatting sounds inside, after all, they were not closed.

After a while, the bodyguards began to feel bored and started playing with their phones.

A bodyguard with a strong vigilance reminded: "Hey, be alert, stop playing! If something happens to you, let's not live!"

"Oh, it's okay, isn't that my wife's dear father? What can I do? The two of them are having a good chat!"

"That's right, this gentleman is just making a big deal!"

After a while, no one spoke.

Suddenly, a bodyguard put away his cell phone, "It seems that there is no sound inside."

The bodyguards immediately put away their phones, "It seems like hey, what are you doing? Why is there no movement?"

"No, there is a sound, the sound of cooking!" A bodyguard pricked up his ears and listened.

"Didn't the wife say she'll come out after a while? Why haven't she come out after so long?"

"Yes, it's been almost an hour since I've been in?"

Everyone began to become suspicious and finally decided to go in and take a look together.

The bodyguards immediately walked in and found that there was no one in the living room and the sound of stir-frying in the kitchen was heard.

They immediately turned to the kitchen.

Xia Jiancheng was busy in the kitchen. When he heard the footsteps, he immediately said, "Xiao Xi, are you hungry? It's almost done. I still have a dish for you to stir-fry." The fastest update is

"Hey! Where is our wife?!"

Xia Jiancheng turned his head and did not see Xia Xiaoxi, but the bodyguards.

He immediately turned off the fire, "In the living room!"

“No one in the living room!”

Xia Jianzhi rushed into the living room, "Hey, I just asked her to wait for me in the living room, why did you? Have you gone to the bathroom?"

As he said that, Xia Jiancheng shouted twice: "Xiao Xi! Xiao Xi, are you in the bathroom?"

No one responded.

The bodyguards looked at each other one after another.

Xia Jiancheng suddenly saw the note left on the table. He picked it up and saw that it was written by Xia Xiaoxi.

"Dad, I won't eat anymore. I'll leave first and come to see you someday."

Xia Jiancheng showed the bodyguards with a note, "Xiao Xi is gone, haven't you seen her at the door?"

"No! We kept guarding at the door and didn't see the wife going out!" The bodyguards realized something was wrong.

"Will the wife go to another room?"

As the bodyguards said this, they rushed upstairs immediately, searched each room one by one, and didn't even find the bathroom.
