Bai Ye is still efficient, at least on some issues.

As soon as he went out and saw Huxi who was already waiting at the door, Bai Ye ordered the matter down, and Huxi immediately went to the branch hall in the city to explain the matter.

About three or four days later, in the afternoon, the sky was still scorching hot, and there was no business in the bookstore. Bai Ye found two bamboo recliners and put them in the inner hall, and slept on one with Xiao Ran. Enjoy the cool with cattail fan.

A disciple of Xuantianmen hurried in outside the door, went into the inner hall and found Bai Ye directly, bowed to him, and said, "Second Master, Master Niu asked me to come over and tell you that the room you are looking for is here for you." I've found it, on the east side of Desheng Street, Kuisu Alley, a single-door courtyard with three entrances and three exits."

Bai Ye, who was sleeping comfortably with his eyes closed, narrowed his eyes and raised his eyebrows. "The action is still fast. Okay, I will go and have a look at it in the evening. It will be too hot."

"Ai."

After the disciple left, Bai Ye pulled Xiao Ran up. "Go, let's go now."

"Huh? Didn't you say to go in the evening?" Xiao Ran was pulled to stand up by him, wondering.

"Of course I lied to him, otherwise he would definitely have to accompany him, how troublesome? Or do you like an extra tail behind you, Xiao Ran?"

Xiao Ran naturally wouldn't like it, so he let Bai Ye take him out.

If it is said that Zhengsan Street is a gathering place for dignitaries and dignitaries, most of the people living on Desheng Street are rich and wealthy people, so in comparison, the area around Desheng Street may be more lively.

Kuaishou Lane is located further to the northeast of Desheng Main Street. The location is already a bit off, but it is also clean. Xiao Ran and Bai Ye walked all the way in, and the surroundings became more and more peaceful. Later, the long alley was full of people's houses on both sides. In the high wall, I can hear the cicadas chirping in the wall, and the restless branches stick their heads out from time to time, bringing a green shade.

Just this elegance made Xiao Ran smile.

The two found the mansion for sale, pushed open the door and walked in. First, there was a spacious patio, which could be seen to have been well maintained, and there were still blooming peonies in the grass on both sides of the road.However, the grass is overgrown with weeds, and it seems that it has been abandoned for some time.

When they walked to the entrance of the main hall, the door was closed tightly, and the seal on the door had been damaged. They would not be the first batch of people who wanted to come and see the house.Bai Ye pushed open the door to let the air in the room circulate a little bit, and then let Xiao Ran follow into the room.

Xiao Ran stood in the middle of the empty main hall and looked around. "Speaking of it... I remember hearing that there used to be a businessman named Jia who lived here. It seems that something happened to the family and the family moved away."

"Oh? Who told you?" Bai Ye asked casually. He knew that Xiao Ran was a good-natured person, and he was very popular outside. He actually had more friends than he thought.

Even if someone like Tang Longzhen could entrust his younger brother to Xiao Ran, his affinity should not be underestimated.

"Mr. Huang must have said it. If I remember correctly, the youngest son of the Jia family studied under Mr. Huang. He was a very talented child. Mr. Huang always praised him when he mentioned it. This time, when he came back, When I came to visit his old man’s house, he told me about this, and he only said that the child started to lose his mind and didn’t work hard in his homework since autumn last year, and then he stopped going out, saying that he was sick. About a few months, suddenly the whole family moved away one day. I remember that Mr. Huang sighed while talking at the time, and he didn’t know if the child has started working hard again now." Xiao Ran replied as he walked around.

This person still has this temperament, as long as others open their mouths, he will answer seriously, so innocent that Bai Ye can feel sorry for him.

The two walked around the whole house as if they were strolling around, and they were both satisfied.There is an exquisite backyard with three entrances and three exits. The house is relatively new and can be lived in almost immediately. The only fly in the ointment is that Xiao Ran always feels that the house is too big, and the two of them always seem to live in it.

Bai Ye didn't think it was too much, he counted for Xiao Ran with his fingers. "One will be your study, one will be your bedroom, find a room with a view of the backyard and modify it to be a flower hall, and..."

Xiao Ran couldn't listen anymore, so he interrupted him with a smile. "This is your home, why are you counting on me?"

Bai Ye answered quickly without changing his face. "Didn't I be away often? Didn't you agree to live with me and show me the house? Of course I will arrange for you. This is convenient for me. I just saw that the West Courtyard is an independent Just leave the small yard to me, so as not to disturb you when I practice martial arts."

So the matter was settled like this. After returning, Bai Ye asked Shi Er to ask Hall Master Niu to fix the house, and the craftsmen would renovate the house. Naturally, Hall Master Niu also took care of things like buying furniture. How could Bai Ye be willing? Let Xiao Ran run around under the sun.

Anyway, Xiao Ran himself admitted that this was Bai Ye's home in Wuzhou City, so it was up to Bai Ye to decide.

I just feel sorry for Hall Master Niu, who is the master of the Xuantian Gate, and now he is only busy handling trivial matters for Bai Ye, so he has no complaints.

Besides, Big Brother Bai, who is far away at the headquarters of Xuantianmen, has been a little happy since he received the urgent letter from Wuzhou City.

In the letter, there were only a few words written by Bai Ye, saying, I want to settle the situation in Wuzhou City, and give another order, saying that I will take charge of the affairs in the south.

In fact, Brother Bai has always wanted Bai Ye to participate more in Xuantianmen's affairs, but he knew that Bai Ye didn't like to play tricks, and he didn't want his only younger brother to work as hard as he did, so he always only took This idea is rolling in my mind.Who would have thought that this time it was Bai Ye himself who opened the mouth, and he was so happy that he immediately posted an announcement to let everyone in the door know that Bai Ye and Bai Er Shao are now the chief person in charge of the south.

However, Big Brother Bai has been in power for many years after all, so he is still very calm about the distribution of power to Bai Ye.

He knew that Bai Ye would not suddenly want power for no reason. Bai Ye was a stray leopard, and he definitely would not suddenly want to change his career to become a domesticated domestic cat.

Brother Bai asked the confidant of Hall Master Niu who came to deliver the letter from Wuzhou City to ask questions, and after knowing everything about Bai Ye's return to Wuzhou City, he clapped his fists and had an epiphany.

Sure enough, that scholar has a problem!

Speaking of which, Big Brother Bai is also a vigorous and resolute person. Since he met Bai Ye and Xiao Ran in Jiankang City last time, after he came back, he asked someone to investigate Xiao Ran, who interested him deeply. Of course, the news obtained from the investigation also surprised Big Brother Bai. Surprised and more curious about the follow-up.

It turned out that Bai Ye had quarreled with the little scholar back then, and it turned out that his younger brother had hurt him like this... But looking at He Fu at that time, it was clear that Ye cared deeply about the little scholar.

He even came to ask him for a shop in the middle of the night, actually to open a bookstore for young scholars... Every time Brother Bai thinks of this, he feels a little disdainful, of course he will not admit that he is just jealous that Brother Midnight came to him not for heart-to-heart talk, but For others.

Bai Ye never cared about things outside his body. Firstly, someone would always prepare them for him, and secondly, he had a cold nature.Even the houses used as wedding houses in Jiankang City were just simple requirements, but now Wuzhou City has bought houses seriously?

I heard that the little scholar lived with him...

Brother Bai scratched his jaw and called for the steward.

"Give me a few smart and quiet servants who serve the second master, and let them rush to Wuzhou City in these two days. Also, let the people in the south know, don't harass the second master for nothing. My second brother's leisure time makes them all ready to switch to that seat." He paused, and added a special sentence: "Especially business matters!"

On this day, Xiao Ran received another invitation from Leng Fengyin, so he went there with Bai Ye after the bookstore closed.After counting it, Leng Fengyin met Li Ran a few times in just one month. This person's attitude is gentle, and Xiao Ran always has an inexplicable liking for him, not to mention the number of encounters with him, and he is no longer as stiff as before.

Although Leng Fengyin always made Bai Ye feel that this person was too nice to Li Ran, but he never did anything excessive, and he never even said ambiguous and provocative words, and every time he just dragged Xiao Ran to chatter about homework , Ask him about his recent situation, and talk about the customs of various places.

The more so, the more Bai Ye felt that Leng Fengyin was a dangerous person.

It’s understandable that you remember all the dishes that a stranger likes and dislikes when you have nothing to do, it’s called a habit; it’s also understandable that you remember all Xiao Ran’s likes and dislikes when you have nothing to do, it’s still a habit; you Knowing what to say, what to say and what not to say to make Xiao Ran happy, so I can understand, it's a professional habit...

But why Mao has so many professional habits, you don't show them in front of outside guests, you just do it to Xiao Ran!You are only in Canxing's small building every time, why do you still have so many professional habits?

You coax Xiao Ran so happily every time that every time you leave, you look reluctant to part with him, what on earth do you want to do!

So Bai Ye took Xiao Ran more and more seriously. Not only did he follow him every time he came to Deyilou, but he also wanted to sit between the two of them. If the other party can't, then I feel at ease.

It's a pity that this is always impossible, at least for now, Bai Ye really has no reason and position to forcefully get involved between the host and the guest - Leng Fengyin clearly stated that the one who invited was Xiao Ran, and you, Bai Ye, are all by the way.

It's the same today, halfway through the wine, Leng Fengyin suddenly asked, "I heard that Mr. Bai bought a house in the city, are you going to live there?"

Bai Ye was currently playing with the Luminous Cup in his hand.The cold wind sings in a lively manner, the western region's specialty iced wine is paired with a special luminous glass, and the dinner is held by the breezy lotus pond, it's all done with care——Thinking of this, Bai Ye has a toothache, hearing the words He just sneered and said: "Lord Leng is really well-informed. It was only two or three days ago that you will know about the matter. If you didn't know that you have great powers in Wuzhou City, I really thought you had set up spies beside Xiao Ran. "

Leng Fengyin didn't take it seriously either, and asked after a few hahahas: "Then, before Mr. Bai asked people to buy the house, did he know what happened to the previous resident, so he moved out?"

"Oh? Do you know the landlord?" It was Xiao Ran who was curious, but he wanted to know clearly, and he could tell Mr. Huang next time, which would solve the old man's confusion.

"I heard that it's Huzhuo!" Leng Fengyin lowered his voice and approached Xiao Ran's ear with a mysterious expression.

"what?"

"Lord Leng, what are you scaring him for? Keep silent and be distracted, Xiao Ran, don't listen to people's nonsense." Seeing Xiao Ran's surprised look, Bai Ye immediately shouted, pulling Xiao Ran to push him behind him.

"Hehe," Leng Fengyin smiled cheerfully like a child who had succeeded, and while motioning for empty words to fill him with wine, he said with some pride: "Mr. Bai, what are you talking about? You just praised me for being well-informed. Why? Will you not believe me again? The Jia family has kept this matter a secret, but they have been tossing about it for several months, even if no one in the Jia residence tells it, will the surrounding residents really know nothing about it?"
