Fu Shaoping had been in seclusion for more than half a month. When he came out of the training room, he saw a big red lantern hanging on the door of the training hall. In two days, it would be New Year's Eve. Except for one person left to guard the important department, the colleagues of the Hundred Households Office went home to prepare New Year's goods and celebrate the New Year. When he arrived at the back office. Unlike the festive atmosphere in other places. The back office was particularly deserted. In the side hall. Old Zhan was still lying alone on the rattan chair. He woke up immediately when he heard the footsteps, and saw that it was Fu Shaoping, and a smile appeared on his dull face:
"You are addicted to practicing martial arts, your family members have come several times, and it will be New Year's Eve soon. You, the head of the family, are not in a hurry at all. Go back quickly, your family members are waiting anxiously." Because Fu Shaoping did not go home after coming out of seclusion, but ran to him habitually. A warm current flowed through Old Zhan's heart. It's okay to be alone on weekdays, but when the New Year comes, every family gathers together and is full of joy, which makes him look particularly lonely. Who doesn't want to have children and grandchildren around them and enjoy the happiness of family life? "Zhan Bo, this is your fault. I'm in seclusion and not at home, but you are the oldest elder, so you have to help with some work, and you can't be so lazy." Fu Shaoping said. His men kept moving to help pack Zhan Bo's clothes. Old Zhan was alone, so he almost lived in the side hall of the back house on weekdays. When he returned home, he was alone and lonely. It's better to be here and not have to toss back and forth with a cane. "You kid don't know how to respect the elderly!" Fu Shaoping's words showed that he had regarded Old Zhan as an elder in the family. Old Zhan was happy. He didn't hesitate. He had been alone for many years and spent the New Year alone. He was a little excited at this moment. The two of them went to East Street together. Zhou Xinxiang, who was squatting at the door, saw them and jumped up with joy, cheering: "Brother-in-law is back! Sister, sister, come out quickly, let's go buy New Year's goods together, otherwise they will be snatched away by others!" It was obvious that he had been waiting for a long time. Zhou Pan'er heard the voice and came out from inside. First, she looked at Fu Shaoping inquiringly, and when Fu Shaoping nodded slightly, she knew that the other party had broken through to the sixth level of the body-building realm, and she smiled instantly, with two dimples that looked very beautiful, and then she bowed to the old Zhantou as a junior. The old Zhantou was happy and took out a bag of silver from his sleeve and threw it to Zhou Xinxiang:
"Xinzi, take it to buy New Year's goods!" "Wow, it's a silver ingot!" Zhou Xinxiang's eyes lit up. But he looked at Fu Shaoping inquiringly. Fu Shaoping knew that he had to let Old Zhan feel involved, so he nodded slightly and said: "Make a list of the things you want to buy, and wait until I settle Zhan Bo, then we will go out." "Okay, brother-in-law!" Because Fu Shaoping had already proposed to bring Old Zhan back for the New Year. So the guest room had been prepared long ago. Fu Shaoping asked Old Zhan if he wanted to eat anything in particular, and Old Zhan smiled and said: "I'm not picky, I eat everything." Fu Shaoping came out of the guest room. He grabbed Zhou Pan'er's hand. It's been a long time since we last met. The more Fu Shaoping looked at her, the more he felt that Sister Pan'er had become more charming. When they were about to go out, he insisted that she wear a veil, for fear that people would look at her more. Zhou Pan'er glared at him. "Sister, brother-in-law, if you don't leave now, everyone else will close their shops!" Zhou Pan'er felt that buying New Year's goods would create an atmosphere when the family went out together, so she insisted on waiting for Fu Shaoping to leave. The three of them drove the carriage directly. They visited all the streets and alleys in the east, south, west and north. They bought a full car of New Year's goods, everything, silk and satin. Zhou Xinxiang was so happy that his mouth never closed. On the way back. But at the entrance of the town. A horse came in with a clatter. The one on the horse was Zhuo Xiaoqi, who had not been seen for a long time. Zhuo Xiaoqi, who looked like Pan An, was haggard at this time, with different wounds of different sizes on his body. His eyes were empty, like a walking corpse. When he passed by Fu Shaoping, Fu Shaoping called him twice, but the other party seemed not to hear. Zhou Pan'er's eyes were red. Fu Shaoping tightened her little hand and said softly: "Sister Pan'er, don't worry, our daughter will never meet a man like Chen Shichao in the future!" When he found the signs.
He cut the Gordian knot quickly, leaving the other party no chance of reincarnation. Back home. Everyone happily began to decorate the new home. Early the next morning. Fu Shaoping found that Old Zhantou was missing, and the gifts in the guest room were not packed. After asking, he found out that the other party thought that there were few people going to the Mission Hall to collect now, and maybe Fu Shaoping could get a simple task and earn merit by raising his hand. "Sister Pan'er, you stew the mutton first, I'll go to pick up Zhan Bo." Fu Shaoping was moved. Coming out of East Street, when I walked a few steps to the Hundred Households Office, there were even fewer people today. I rushed all the way to the door of the Mission Hall. After the wind blew last night. It started to snow. The whole Hundred Households Office suddenly became white. After waiting for a while. The door of the Mission Hall opened. Old Zhantou came out with a cane and looked excited. When he saw Fu Shaoping, he hurriedly said: "Shaoping, I got you a good task." The ground was slippery with snow. Fu Shaoping saw that Old Zhan was too excited and was afraid that he would fall, so he quickly took a few steps and supported him. Old Zhan said with a smile: "Shao Ping, go to Qiuchang Village. This morning, a little girl came to complain, saying that her mother was killed. The people in Qiuchang Village are all non-martial artists. You can go and take a look. If it were normal, this would not be considered a level nine mission, but now there is no one in the Hundred Households Office, and the Mission Hall has to increase the reward value. Hehe, we got a bargain." "Here is the file, take it and take a look." "Qiuchang Village is not far away, go quickly and come back quickly, maybe you can still make it back for lunch." Old Zhan felt that he could finally do something for Fu Shaoping, and he was happy from the bottom of his heart. After Fu Shaoping thanked him. After taking a quick look, it was a little girl who reported the case, but her family was a big family. Her father had five brothers and sisters, and her father was the third oldest. According to the little girl's statement, her mother had a big quarrel with the upper room last night, and she didn't find her mother returning to the room last night. She thought her mother was locked in the woodshed, so she went to look for her. When she passed by the well, she found her mother floating at the mouth of the well. She insisted that her mother was murdered. But who was it. She didn't know. Fu Shaoping put the file away.
When the two of them left the Hundred Households Office, they saw a little girl on the side with half of her body frozen. After asking, they found out that it was the reporter: "It's so cold, you are wearing so thin, aren't you afraid of freezing!" Fu Shaoping took off his coat and put it on her. The little girl was a little terrified. After asking, they learned that when she found her mother's body last night, she ran away from home overnight.
