After talking to Lou Xiaoe on the phone, Li Qiao drove to XX Hotel.

Lou Xiao'e has left a message at the front desk, asking Li Qiao to come in directly.

The security of the ×× hotel is strict, and it looks like it is not a place where ordinary people can stay.

Li Qiao was allowed to enter after being searched twice and passing several security checks.

Room 8666.

Soothing music flows in the splendid hall.

"Brother Li Qiao!"

Xiao Lingsu rushed out first and jumped into Li Qiao's suspicion.

Later, Xiao Zhenghao, Lou's father, and Lou's mother appeared and met Li Qiao.

We are already old acquaintances, so there is no need to be polite.

Li Qiao stroked Xiao Lingsu's little head and said with a smile: "The little guy has grown taller again."

Xiao Lingsu said proudly: "I'm growing up so fast, just wait for me!"

Xiao Zhenghao said: "Why do you want people to wait for you? There is no politeness at all."

Father Lou said: "Li Qiao, can you arrange for us to go home and take a look?"

"Of course. I'm here to pick you up."

Li Qiao replied.

Father Lou and Mother Lou are very happy.

After more than ten years away from Beijing, they were finally able to return to their old home.

"Lingsu, grandpa, grandma will take you to see the place where your mother grew up, okay?"

Xiao Zhenghao asked.

"Okay, okay!"

Xiao Lingsu said happily.

"Li Qiao, Xiao'e still has a few documents to sign, let's go first."

Xiao Zhenghao said.

"OK."

Li Qiao immediately agreed and took Xiao Zhenghao, Xiao Lingsu, Lou's father, and Lou's mother out of the hotel.

The five people got into the "Shanghai" car, left the XX Hotel, and drove on the spacious streets of Sijiu City.

Li Qiao drove slowly and passed the famous Chang'an Street in Sijiu City.

The ten-mile Chang'an Street is a place that countless old people never forget.

Lou's father and Lou's mother are no exception.

Looking at the familiar streets and buildings outside the car, Lou's father and Lou's mother couldn't help but burst into tears.

The old couple hugged each other and cried.

Xiao Lingsu looked at the outside of the car curiously, asking questions here and there, and he was very strange.

Fortunately, Li Qiao was familiar with all kinds of knowledge about Sijiucheng, otherwise, she would have to ask questions.

Driving down Chang'an Street, the car officially headed towards Lou's hometown.

Lou's father and Lou's mother became even more excited.

"Oh, isn't this the old market?"

"Yeah, why did you change the amusement park?"

"Oh, there used to be an alley here, and we even went in there to play!"

"Oh, now it's all turned into roads!"

The old couple sighed with emotion at the changes in the scenery along the street.

"Hey, you said our old house won't be demolished, right?"

Lou's mother suddenly became worried.

"No, the location of our house is not that good."

Father Lou said.

Li Qiao smiled and didn't say much, but thought about giving the old couple a surprise later.

…

A secluded alley.

The Shanghai train slowly drove into the depths of the alley.

"We're here! We're here! Our old home is here!"

Father Lou was very excited.

"Lingsu, Lingsu, look, this is the alley where your mother lived when she was a child."

Mother Lou hugged Xiao Lingsu, pointed out the window, and said excitedly.

Xiao Lingsu opened his big eyes and looked at everything in the alley curiously.

"We're here, let's get out of the car and walk a few steps. There's no way in front."

Li Qiao stopped and explained.

"Okay, okay."

Father Lou suddenly seemed several years younger. He opened the car door first and walked towards the familiar old house.

"This damn old man only cares about himself and doesn't care about me."

Lou's mother got out of the car with Xiao Lingsu in her arms and said resentfully, but her face was filled with uncontrollable excitement and joy.

"Old lady! Come and see! Everything is here!"

Father Lou rushed to the door of the old house and shouted.

Lou's mother quickly ran over with Xiao Lingsu in her arms.

Xiao Zhenghao and Li Qiao also arrived soon after.

A slightly dilapidated house stands in the deepest part of the alley.

There are overgrown weeds in front of the door, and a crooked-necked tree has lost its crown, showing the suffering it has suffered.

"Here we go! Home!"

Father Lou's eyes filled with tears.

He took out an old key and said with some worry: "I don't know, can it still be opened?"

Li Qiao smiled and said: "Try it! Maybe you can!"

Father Lou inserted the key into the keyhole with anxiety.

Unexpectedly, it can actually be twisted.

Father Lou looked surprised.

"Click!"

The lock was opened, and the Lou family's old house officially opened its doors to welcome guests.

At this moment, several people suddenly walked out of the door.

Father Lou looked stunned.

But those people came over laughing and joking, supported him and said, "Welcome home!"

Father Lou took a closer look and found that these people were Song Moqu, Xiaodang, Niu Xiaowei and an unknown person.

Li Qiao quickly explained: "Uncle Lou, actually I took over this house a long time ago and never told you. I wanted to give you a surprise. I arranged for these friends to come in in advance and have already helped you pack up the house."

.Please come in."

Father Lou and Mother Lou breathed a sigh of relief and expressed their gratitude again and again.

Everyone entered the house talking and laughing.

"Sister Xiaodang, I miss you so much!"

When Xiao Lingsu saw Xiaodang, she jumped directly into her arms and said affectionately.

"Little Guitou, do you miss me or the candied haws?"

Xiaodang said with a smile.

Then, like a magic trick, he took out a bunch of red things from behind.
