"Looking at the accent, you are not from Jinmen, are you? Are you here for tourism?"
When I was thinking about how to get to the point, Xiao Shi took the initiative to ask me.
I followed the clues and deliberately pretended to be difficult and said:
"Actually, I originally wanted to visit an old friend of my relative, but I don't have the contact information of the other person. The other person is a big shot in Jinmen Guards. It's impossible to meet him..."
"What's the other person's name?"
Xiao Shi asked casually.
"Congratulations to Mr. Songbai!"
oh?
Xiaoshi was slightly startled, and she looked at Master Hong and me.
It seems like they want to see through our appearance and see through our thoughts.
"What are you looking for him for?"
After a while, Xiao Shi finally asked.
"I just want to ask him about some old stories..."
Xiaoshi was silent again, thought for a moment, and then said:
"Well, you can try to go to Wenbaozhai tomorrow afternoon. As far as I know, he goes to Wenbaozhai once a week. Maybe you can meet him there..."
"How did you know?"
Master Hong asked curiously.
"I heard that!"
"Then what if he doesn't want to see us?"
"Just say that you are Xiaoshi's friend!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Shi said goodbye and left.
Looking at Xiao Shi’s graceful back.
I'm a little curious, I know this king is really a bit virtuous.
Through the mobile phone and a name, we can judge that this little poem can help us meet He Songbai.
No matter what, there is finally a way to see He Songbai.
When I got back to the hotel, I tidied up briefly and got ready to go to bed.
Just as I lay down, my phone suddenly rang.
I picked it up and saw that it was Qi Lan calling.
As soon as the connection was connected, Qi Lan asked directly:
"Xiao Liuye, what are you doing?"
Qi Lan's voice was gentle and had a hint of laziness.
In this silent night, this kind of sound is particularly alluring.
"Just getting ready to take a rest. What about you? What have you been busy with recently?"
"I'm not busy with anything. It's just that I've been a little depressed this year. I want to chat with you..."
"What's wrong?"
I asked casually.
"Hey, it's all the fault of the big boss of the Zou family. After he took over the Zou family, he canceled everything that Mr. Zou had agreed with my father before. Originally, Xiacheng County belonged to our family. But I heard that these few
Oh my god, Zou Tiansheng has purchased a hotel in Xiacheng County and is renovating it. It is estimated that he will open a big hotel..."
oh?
Qi Lan's words surprised me a little.
Unexpectedly, this big boss had just taken over the Zou family.
It began to expand aggressively.
"When he did this, my father and brother became a little anxious. Think about it, how can the atmosphere in my family be good in this situation?"
I promised.
I can't help with this kind of thing.
I can only say a few words of comfort.
After chatting for a while, we put down the phone.
Lying in bed, I started to have insomnia again.
All I could think about was the message Mr. Zou sent me the day before he died.
He said mysteriously that he wanted to give me a gift, but what was this gift?
…………
The next afternoon, I took a taxi alone and went directly to Wenbaozhai.
This place is very close to the restaurant where we ate yesterday, on the antique street.
When you get off the car and enter the door, you will see a decorated antique shop.
Various cultural relics, calligraphy and paintings, bronze and porcelain are displayed.
I know nothing about antiques.
After a casual glance, he looked at a middle-aged man wearing glasses in front of the cabinet and asked:
"Hello, I would like to ask. Is Mr. He Songbai here?"
The middle-aged man raised his head, glanced at me through the lens on his nose, and said in confusion:
"Who are you?"
I quickly replied:
"I'm Xiaoshi's friend. She asked me to come here to find Mr. He!"
"It turns out he is Xiaoshi's friend, then come with me..."
With that said, the middle-aged man came out of the counter.
He took me out the back door and arrived at a neat courtyard.
The courtyard is not big, and it is square and exquisitely decorated.
In the middle, there is a large persimmon tree with a horned dragon.
As soon as I entered the backyard, I heard a middle-aged man shout in the direction of the main house:
"Master He, Xiaoshi's friend wants to see you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a man's voice came from the room:
"Then please come in..."
I never thought of a friend of Xiaoshi.
How could He Songbai, the famous Jinmen guard, be so polite?
What is the origin of this little poem?
I have some doubts in my mind.
I originally thought that He Songbai, the famous gambling king in Tianjin, should be an old man in his sixties.
But when I saw him, I realized.
He Songbai is only about fifty years old and has a slim build.
She has short, flat hair and exudes an indescribable refined temperament.
He was wearing a white embroidered short coat and a pair of round-toed cloth shoes with thousand-layer soles.
In this outfit, if you put him on the street, he would look like an ordinary and extremely ordinary person.
But who would have thought that such an ordinary person is the Jinmen guard gambling king He Songbai?
We sat down, poured tea, and introduced ourselves.
He Songbai smiled and asked me politely:
"Mr. Chu, are you and Xiaoshi classmates or friends?"
classmate?
I smiled bitterly in my heart.
In this life, I have never had any classmates.
I didn’t hide anything and said directly:
"To be honest with Mr. He, Xiaoshi and I have only just met..."
oh?
He Songbai looked at me calmly.
"That's it, Mr. He. I came from Habei. I want to ask you about the past of a relative..."
"who?"
"Mello!"
As soon as the words came out, He Songbai suddenly fell silent.
After a while, he asked again:
"Who is he to you?"
"He's my uncle!"
I lied on purpose.
"Because before she died, as a sister, my mother was unable to see my uncle for the last time, and she always regretted it. Now that she is older, she wants to know some of my uncle's past and why his hands and feet were amputated. I accidentally learned from
I learned from Mr. Zou Wanli in Habei that my uncle Cong Yun
When you returned to Habei from Yunnan, you called Mr. Zou in Yundian and asked him to help send your uncle back to his hometown. That's why I came from Habei to ask you for advice. What did my uncle go through back then?
What? Understanding this can also solve a problem for my mother!"
And the reason why I dared to introduce myself so abruptly.
It was because Mr. Zou said that He Songbai had called him.
And on the phone, he was very concerned about my father.
