Chapter 387
After leaving the Zhenfu Division, Chen Pingan thought of Mu Wanjun on his way home.
This woman had a great favor for him! In the past, he was able to successfully enter the register and obtain the status of a formal official because of her promotion. Now that he has achieved success, he must repay her.
Originally, he thought that he should be able to get together with Wanjun at the Mu family dinner this time. But he never thought that Wanjun happened to be in seclusion and broke through the realm. The two did not meet.
"I haven't come out of seclusion for so long. I wonder if the breakthrough is not going smoothly!? Or has it been through the pass and is working on consolidating the realm!?" Chen Pingan thought secretly in his heart.
Weishui Zhenfu Division is not far from the house that Chen Pingan bought before, and he returned home quickly in a carriage.
When Chen Pingan arrived home, the little girl just came back from the Weishui Academy. Logically, the little girl was about to leave Weishui and go to Canglongzhou City to study. These days, she doesn't have to go to the academy anymore. However, the little girl didn't want to waste time, and she still went to school every day.
I heard that the little girl has been working on the subsequent homework framework these days, and she doesn't plan to waste the time she spent in Canglongzhou City. After the homework framework is sorted out, she can study hard on her own.
An inch of time is an inch of gold, and an inch of gold can't buy an inch of time!
The little girl has put this sentence into practice in her life.
Strictly speaking, the brother and sister are quite similar. One studies hard every day, and the other studies hard every day, diligently, and dare not slack off at all!
Chen Ping'an can only persist in this way because of the real-time positive feedback of the gold finger panel. I don't know what the source of the little girl's hard study is! ?
"Brother, you are back~" Seeing Chen Ping'an coming back, the little girl put down her book, her eyebrows curved, and smiled into a crescent.
Looking at the little girl's smiling face, Chen Ping'an instantly became a little dazed. Time seemed to have returned to the time when the brother and sister depended on each other.
He worked hard outside all day and came home exhausted. The little girl was waiting at home early. When she saw him coming back, she washed away his fatigue with a coquettish word.
Scenes flashed in Chen Ping'an's mind like flowing water, and countless times intertwined and overlapped with each other. Chen Ping'an was stunned and said a word after a long time.
"Well, I'm back."
The little girl was a little strange, but she didn't ask much, just talking about her new lessons today with a happy face.
Chen Ping'an's heart was soft, his face was full of smiles, and he listened carefully. Shaoyao stood by the side, blinking her big eyes, listening to the conversation between the brother and sister.
The afterglow of the sunset poured down through the window, and the light and shadow interacted, forming a warm and soft beautiful picture.
......
Chen Ping'an came back early today because he wanted to take the little girl to see the Weishui County before she left Weishui.
Their first stop was to return to Nanquan Lane and Lihua Lane.
This is where they grew up!
With Chen Pingan's promotion to deputy commander, their former residence was officially taken over by the Waicheng Town Fusi, which was responsible for the repair and maintenance of the courtyard.
Outside the courtyard of Lihua Lane, there are direct officers of the Waicheng Town Fusi stationed there. For this reason, the Waicheng Town Fusi also set up a station nearby. This matter even directly affected the situation in Lihua Lane and even Nanquan Lane.
Like some gangs that are used to hanging out at the bottom, every time they come to Lihua Lane, they all keep their tails between their legs, for fear of causing any trouble. This also indirectly improves the level of public security in Lihua Lane, making Lihua Lane the most secure lane in Nancheng District, second only to the core area.
And this matter is just a small impact brought about by Chen Pingan's promotion. Similar situations and influences are reflected in every subtle place.
This time when he returned to Nanquan Lane and Lihua Lane, Chen Pingan was not as low-key as before.
Accompanied by many guards, he and the little girl sat in a tall and wide special carriage and returned to the old courtyard.
Before they arrived, their subordinates had already notified all local offices in advance to prepare for the reception! Along the way, there were people welcoming them everywhere.
When Chen Pingan officially arrived at the courtyard, a large number of people had already gathered around him. Among them were people from the Urban District Pacification Office, people from the Lane Pacification Office, leaders of various gangs, and core members of various small families.
In Lihua Lane, villagers watched from afar. There were also half-grown children who didn't know what was going on and asked curiously.
"Grandpa, why are there so many people over there! What happened?!"
"Silly child, it's Master Chen who's back! These people are here to welcome him!"
"Who is Master Chen?"
"Master Chen is a big shot from our Lihua Lane!"
"Big shot? Is he as big as a policeman?"
"Policeman? He's not even worthy of carrying Master Chen's shoes!"
"Ah!?"
"......"
In addition to the half-grown children who didn't know what was going on, there were also excited old neighbors.
"Master Chen is back, Master Chen is back!"
"Where is he? Can you see it clearly?"
"There! Look! He just got off the frame!"
"I see it, I see it! Master Chen!"
"Old Zhang family, I heard that your Amu was touched by Master Chen, is that true?"
"Really! Of course it's true! More real than gold!"
"......"
With Chen Ping'an's martial arts realm, he could naturally hear the whispers coming from afar through the crowd. There were also many people's voices among them, which remained in his distant memory.
They are all old neighbors of Lihua Lane, and many of them have watched him grow up. When Old Chen was still around, some people had made jokes about him. The general idea was that he was handsome and had a promising future, and could become a leader!
If you don't return home when you are rich, it's like walking in the night in brocade clothes!
Although Chen Ping'an didn't have such an interest, the little girl was about to leave Weishui, and it was time for her to experience it. Whether she likes it or not, it is more or less a life experience!
Study thousands of volumes and taste hundreds of flavors of life!
The layout of the small courtyard is the same as it was back then!
A small courtyard, a bedroom, and half a kitchen, this is the whole layout! It is also the safe haven for the two brothers and sisters after Old Chen passed away.
Returning to the small courtyard again, the little girl was not as happy as before, jumping around. She was shrouded in a different taste, walking quietly in the courtyard, looking at the furnishings and layout around her.
I don't know what year it will be when I go to Canglongzhou City again! On the eve of departure, it is natural to say goodbye reluctantly!
......
After leaving the courtyard, the second stop Chen Pingan took the little girl to was the Nanquan Lane Zhenfu Division. This was where he worked in the past, and there were too many memories of him.
The little girl was about to leave, so he naturally wanted to show her where his brother worked in the past.
There were too many old acquaintances of Chen Pingan in Nanquan Lane, and his visit was very grand, and the shock caused was needless to say. Chen Pingan walked in the Lane Zhenfu Division and carefully introduced things to the little girl. Tian Fuliang accompanied him throughout the whole process, humbly lowered his head, and followed behind the two. In addition to him, there were also many senior officials of the Urban District Zhenfu Division, who also followed closely behind, step by step.
In Nanquan Lane, Chen Pingan also met several old acquaintances. But now, their statuses are very different, and several people seem extremely restrained. Some people even trembled faintly, and I don’t know if it was because of nervousness or excitement.
The only one who performed better was Qin Tou, who was about to retire. Seeing Chen Pingan, Qin Tou's eyes were full of trance.
Who could have thought that a patrol officer under his command who had not even been registered would have come to this point today! The level is far beyond the limit of imagination!
Looking at the overly young and familiar face in front of him, he seemed to have returned to the past in a trance!
The unicorn son of the old Chen family!
......
Leaving the Nanquan Lane Zhenfu Division, the third stop Chen Pingan took the little girl to was the Nancheng Prison! This is the place where he once served as the top leader.
Chen Pingan's carriage arrived, and the Nancheng Prison's welcome was naturally needless to mention. It is worth mentioning that Chen Pingan met his former confidant follower here, Zeng Ji Xiao Zeng!
Among the few people at the time, Xiao Zeng had the best martial arts talent. In the past two years, with Chen Pingan's relationship, he has also been doing well in the Nancheng Prison.
Now, he is already the most powerful leader in the Nancheng Prison!
He is in charge of six squads, and more than 20 vigorous men have to respectfully call him Zeng Chatou when they see him!
However, in front of Chen Pingan, Xiao Zeng is still Xiao Zeng, and regards himself as a confidant and follower.
After visiting the Nancheng Prison, Chen Pingan encouraged Xiao Zeng a few words, and then left with the little girl to the fourth stop, Nancheng Chengfusi.
At the beginning, because of Chen Pingan's entrustment, Mu Wanjun transferred Houtou and Dashan from Nanquan Lane to Nancheng Chengfusi. This time in Nancheng Chengfusi, Chen Pingan met the two old brothers.
With Chen Pingan's care, the two old brothers are doing well in Nancheng Chengfusi. For example, Houtou has become a Chatou, and he is in charge of four squads. Wearing the Chatou cloak, he doesn't know whether he has realized his dream of the year, whether he has got what he wanted!
Compared with Houtou, Dashan is a little worse. But now he has become a reserve Chatou, and he is in charge of two squads.
With Chen Ping'an's care, Houtou's unrestrained character will undoubtedly make it easier for him to get along.
When they met again this time, they seemed a little unfamiliar with each other. Chen Ping'an was in a high position and had a different status. In addition, they had not seen each other for a long time, so Houtou and Dashan seemed a little reserved.
However, Chen Ping'an took the initiative to mention the original matter, and recalled that it had resolved a lot of unfamiliarity. When it was time to leave, several people vaguely regained some of the feelings of the past.
"Houtou, Dashan, do a good job! As long as you are diligent in your official duties and loyal to your duties, the higher-ups will see it!" Chen Ping'an patted the shoulders of the two in turn.
Chen Ping'an's actions were naturally remembered by many people around him. Only Houtou and Dashan knew what arrangements would be made later.
After coming out of the Nancheng Town Fusi, Chen Ping'an's mood seemed to become a little happier. Influenced by him, the little girl's sadness was also relieved a lot.
After visiting the outer city of Weishui, Chen Ping'an took the little girl to the inner city of Weishui. Although it is now dark, the inner city of Weishui is still brightly lit and dazzling, as if it is a different world from the outer city of Weishui.
On both sides of the street, various lanterns are hung high, emitting soft and warm light. In the busy city, the occasional shouting attracts pedestrians to stop.
Chen Pingan and the little girl sat on the carriage, eating pastries and delicacies, admiring the night view of the inner city of Weishui.
Among the many prosperous places, there are also quaint brothels, with two big red lanterns hanging in front of the door, reflecting the figures of the beauties standing in front of the windows upstairs. They are dressed in gorgeous clothes, dancing with light gauze, showing their charm and style in every move, attracting the attention of passers-by.
Inadvertently, Chen Pingan took a few more glances.
"Brother!" The little girl looked over angrily.
Chen Pingan retracted his gaze, and looking at the little girl's appearance, he couldn't help but smile: "What's wrong?"
"Brother, when I go to Canglongzhou City, don't be fascinated by them! This is a den of money! Even if you want to be fascinated, you have to wait until you marry your sister-in-law!"
"Sister-in-law? Where is the sister-in-law?" Chen Pingan asked curiously.
He didn't care about what the little girl said before. For others, this is a den of money. But for him, it doesn't matter whether it is a den of money or not.
As long as he wants, he doesn't even need to show up in person, he just needs to reveal an idea. Then someone will pack up the woman he likes and send her to his door in person.
At Chen Pingan's level, what people fear most is that you don't accept gifts! If you can give what you want, people can't even beg for it! Chen Pingan accepted the gift, and people have to thank him in return!
"Brother, you still want to lie to me! I knew it a long time ago!" The little girl looked proud.
"Know what!?"
"Of course it's about you marrying me a sister-in-law!" The little girl straightened her waist and said proudly.
"What a mess!" Hearing this, Chen Ping'an's face darkened: "I don't know it myself, how do you know it?"
"Humph, it's all spread! Still want to quibble!"
Seeing the little girl's face full of confidence, Chen Ping'an was speechless for a while.
What the little girl heard should be the rumors that the Gu family intends to marry him and is ready to marry a noblewoman.
There is indeed such a thing! He and Gu Qingchan even had a simple exchange. However, there is still no shadow until now! Not to mention that it has really been implemented! How come when the little girl heard it, it became that he is about to marry someone into the house! ?
Could it be that the reason why the academic bully is the academic bully is because of his strong ability to make up for the brain?
The little girl looked proud, and Chen Ping'an looked helpless.
The carriage was quiet for a while, and then the little girl's voice rang again: "By the way, brother, what does my sister-in-law look like!"
Chen Ping'an's head jumped: "No sister-in-law, I said no!"
"Is my sister-in-law very gentle and beautiful!"
The little girl's words softened Chen Ping'an's expression instantly, and his heart was deeply touched.
The scene that was buried deep in his memory began to emerge in his mind.
"Brother, I know. But, I think, even if the 14 taels of silver are paid back, there are still big things to do at home, and there are many places where money should be spent. I still want to save as much as possible."
"What big things are not done?"
"Brother's marriage. Brother is 19 years old, and next year, he will be a young man. I have asked Granny Wang in Changqiao Lane. If I want to marry a wife home, I need at least 10 taels of silver for all kinds of expenses!
And my brother is so outstanding, it's not okay to just marry an ordinary wife home. So, 10 taels of silver is not enough. For my brother's marriage, the family must prepare at least 20 taels of silver. My mother died early, and no one in the family will plan this for my brother, so I am the only one."
"You girl, you are so smart!"
"My sister-in-law, of course, should be the most gentle and beautiful..."
"The most gentle, the most beautiful..." Thinking back to the past, Chen Pingan showed tenderness on his face and murmured to himself.
"Look, brother, you still don't admit it, it's true!" Looking at Chen Ping'an's expression, the little girl looked like she had discovered the truth.
"No, it's really not!"
"I don't believe it! It's true!"
"......"
The car frame gradually drove away and disappeared at the end of the street, leaving only warmth and beauty.
