Chapter 260 The Benefactor
Huo Xi followed Wu Youcai's flower boat all the way until sunset.

Seeing the flower boat stop at a step along the river, Huo Xi also followed behind, paid the boat fare and reward, and followed behind to go ashore.

Wu Youcai was rushed into the Wanxiang Tower by the crowd, Huo Xi followed to the door and stopped in his tracks.

There was a flower girl who looked back at her, but Huo Xi only stared at Wu Youcai's back without noticing it.

"Xi'er, what should we do now?" Yang Fu stepped forward and whispered.

Could it be that Xi'er wants to catch people in the basket again?But the man was followed by someone, and he didn't know when he would come out when he went in.Do you have to wait outside?

Huo Nian saw his sister acting strangely and with a serious expression along the way, so he didn't dare to ask.At this time, he saw his sister followed someone to a large, beautiful house with several floors high. He turned his head to look at his sister while looking up at the building.

The sensible person didn't ask any more questions, and just stood next to his sister.

Huo Xi glanced at both sides, saw a nearby food stall selling noodle wontons, hurriedly dragged Yang Fu and Huo Nian over.

I ordered three bowls of wontons and stared at the door of Wanxianglou while eating.

Huo Xi didn't know what she was going to do, and couldn't figure out what she could do, but she refused to leave.

At the window on the second floor of Juyuan Building next door to Wanxiang Building, Mu Yan cast her eyes on Huo Xi.

"Master, why did Miss Huo come here? She brought her younger brother with her? Are you afraid that her parents will break her legs?" Kan Er followed Mu Yan's eyes and was very surprised.

Mu Yan didn't speak, seeing that she had finished eating a bowl of wontons, and she was still sitting there with deep eyes.

"Master, what do you think Mrs. Huo is going to do? Staring at Wanxianglou, her eyes almost popped out."

Just as Li Yi wanted to go back to Kan Er, he saw a woman who looked like a maid approaching Mrs. Huo. She was only taken aback when she saw her, and followed the man with her uncle and younger brother.

"Where is this going? Oh, Miss Huo, she really thinks of herself as a man, she even dares to go in the Hualou!" Kan Er jumped up and down.Li Yi also watched worriedly.

"Three!" Mu Yan said lightly.

Gan San who was hiding in the dark flashed out.Mu Yan ordered: "Follow."

"Yes." A dodge, disappeared.

Huo Xi was dubious and followed the maid.She rescued a woman who fell into the water in the Qinhuai River a few years ago, but how did that man recognize her now?

While looking around, he followed behind her.

I want my uncle to wait outside with Nian'er, but my uncle is worried about her.Nian'er didn't dare to let him go out alone, so she had to follow in together.

A group of people did not enter through the gate of Wanxiang Building, but went to the back door, entered the backyard, and turned around to an elegant room.

"This backyard is where the girls live. Now they are all in front, so don't worry. My girls are waiting for you inside, and I'll be in the courtyard. I'll lead you away after a while." After the maid finished speaking, she pushed away the elegant room door.

Huo Xi poked inside, and saw that there was indeed a person sitting at the round table, smiling at her.There was no one else in the room.

Be sure.Turning to look at Huo Nian and Yang Fu: "Uncle and Nian'er wait for me outside."

"I want to follow my sister!"

"You are obedient!"

Yang Fu wanted to follow in, but seeing that Huo Xi refused to let Huo Nian in, he was afraid that there were some things that Huo Nian would not listen to, so he pulled him outside.

After entering the room, Huo Xi looked at the man, he was very bright and gorgeous, with luxurious clothes and gestures that were different from ordinary women.

"Are you really the person I saved back then?"

The Huaniang smiled and nodded: "Otherwise, how would I know that you once saved someone in the Qinhuai River?"

Huo Xi looked at her, trying to recognize a trace of the past from her face, but felt that the change was quite big: "Then how did you recognize me? It's been several years."

"I recognized your mother."

"My mother?"

"Yes, I saw you when you were swimming in Mochou Lake that day. I was very close to you at that time."

I see.Huo Xi understood in her heart that she had changed a lot in the past few years, but her mother hadn't changed much.

"sit down."

Huo Xi sat down in front of her and looked up at her: "Why did you ask me to come?"

It can't be to repay a life-saving grace, right?Back then, she looked like she was begging for death, and she blamed them for not saving her.Looking at her now, she seems to be adapting well.

That Hua Niang smiled: "My name is Ping Niang, if you don't mind, your benefactor can also call me that."

"I don't dare to do it. It was also your life that didn't deserve to die."

He also introduced: "My name is Huo Xi."

"Huo Xi?"

That Pingniang whispered her name once, and said with a smile: "If it weren't for you and your mother, I would have been buried in the Qinhuai River long ago. Of course you are Pingniang's savior."

After finishing speaking, he reassured Huo Xi: "I saw you following us all the way, still staring at that Mr. Wu, and you refused to leave when you got here. There must be some reason. If there is something useful for your benefactor, feel free to speak up. "

Huo Xi was stunned for a moment, but she didn't expect her actions to be discovered.The face is hot.

"Don't worry, my benefactor. I will keep my mouth shut about today's matter. Naturally, I will repay you for saving my life. Just don't worry, my benefactor, and trust Pingniang."

Seeing her sincerity, Huo Xi pondered for a while, and said, "Do you know Wu Youcai? Does he come here often? You can count..."

Uh, I'm a bit speechless.

That Pingniang smiled: "He can be regarded as my benefactor. I know him. I come here a few times a month. Recently, I got an errand from the Shipping Department, so I come more frequently. Someone always invites me. Drink here."

Huo Xi was silent, now that Wu Youcai has joined the Shibo Department to help the Wu family and the Wu family, the better off they are, the more uncomfortable Huo Xi will be.

Now it's no pain or itching to put him in a basket again.Seeing him, I feel uncomfortable if I don't treat him, but how can I treat him?

"The benefactor is looking for Wu...Wu Youcai? I can help spread the word."

Pingniang wanted to talk about Master Wu, but just now she remembered that Huo Xi called him by his first and last name, and she didn't seem to respect him at all.

If it's not that his status is higher than him, then he is an enemy.Pingniang was used to seeing people's expressions, so she changed her words accordingly.He smiled secretly, and still called Wu Youcai pleasing to the ear.

Huo Xi was silent, and did not avoid her: "I have something to look for him, but seeing him suddenly today, I don't know what to do for a while."

"The benefactor slowly thought, if there is something for Pingniang, just ask someone to come to me. My maid is called Yaoqin, and I can ask the porter to look for her and let her pass the message on her behalf."

"Thank you."

"The benefactor is very polite."

Seeing that her words were sincere, Huo Xi let go of her guard: "How are you doing here?"

Pingniang smiled: "It's pretty good. Once in the world of mortals, this is a life, and that is also a life. Now that the building values ​​me, I feel quite comfortable."

Huo Xi talked to her for a while, and he didn't want to stay in the flower building any longer, he still had thoughts outside.

"My brother is still young, so I won't stay any longer."

"Okay, I won't send the benefactor away either. My maid will send you out. If there is anything I can do, the benefactor can just come and find me."

"Thank you."

Huo Xi and the three of them left the Wanxiang Building under the leadership of the shaker.

And Gan San followed them out of the city, saw that they had returned to the boat safely, turned around and reported to Mu Yan.
