Chapter 973 What’s special?

Cang Lie's mood was calm and his voice was low, no different from usual.

But Ji Fanyin still heard the compassion hidden under his calmness. She opened her eyes and asked:
"What's so special about Miao Xiaoer?"

special?

Cang Lie's eyes were a little shaken.

There is nothing special about Miao Xiaoer.

On the contrary, she is very ordinary, very ordinary.

She was so ordinary that she had no power to resist anyone who was slightly stronger than her.

Pushed into the river, she panted and climbed ashore, but she just smiled stupidly; she was provoked and beaten by the gangsters, with blood dripping from the corners of her eyes and mouth, and her limping figure disappeared into the night. The next day, she was just He laughed and lied to Bai Wei, she was too drunk last night and fell on her own.

Therefore, like most ordinary people, she works hard to be strong and deceives herself. As long as she works hard, she can live with dignity like ordinary people.

The day before yesterday, Miao Xiaoer stood on the street corner and told Liangji that one day when the inn's business was good, he would reward her with a bowl of longevity noodles and treat it as her birthday.

What can an orphan expect? A bowl of longevity noodles, and he can smile and say he is content.

now……

There is no need to celebrate birthdays or anything like that.

Cang Lie's thick eyebrows frowned unconsciously, he pursed his thin lips and said lightly:
"She's nothing special."

Ji Fanyin curled her lips and muttered: Duplicity.

After Cao Bo left the interrogation room, he first went to the morgue to conduct a personal autopsy, and then went to the case file room to find out the unsolved murder cases in recent years.

At this time, a government servant hurriedly came to report that a distinguished guest had arrived.

One of the visiting guests was Sikongqing, the eldest son of the Sikong family, the head of the Danhe County family.One is Ju Jiaming, who is currently being envied by people in the city and has just been selected as one of the crown prince's personal guards.Ju Jiaming's father and Cao Bo's father were somewhat related, but upon closer inspection, this relationship was actually separated by three generations.

When Ju Jiaming met Cao Bo with generous gifts, he said he was an uncle. None of Cao Bo's nephews were as close as Ju Jiaming.When Cao Bo was happy, he completely forgot about Ji Fanyin who was still locked in the interrogation room.

After some pleasantries, it was already noon.

Ju Jiaming and Sikongqing stood up to say goodbye.

Cao Bo sent the person to the front yard and suddenly said:
"My dear nephew, I am a low-ranking official and I am insignificant and unable to help you. I live in a shabby house and am alone. My relationship with my mother's family was ended more than ten years ago. If you call me uncle today, I will accept it. Ashamed, I agreed. If you want to come see me in the future, the door of my small courtyard will be open for you at any time."

The implication is that there is no need to come to Jingzhao Mansion to look for him again.

Ju Jiaming was stunned for a moment:
"Uncle, what did I do wrong? If I said something wrong today, please forgive me for my mistake."

Cao Bo looked at him:
"You're doing very well today."

If today is good, then it was not good before?
Ju Jiaming stopped, clasped his fists and bent over, and said in fear:

"Uncle, I..."

Cao Bo interrupted him:

"Don't panic, don't think too much. You didn't say anything wrong, and you didn't offend me. On the contrary, the fact that you came to see me today shows that you are a smart child. It is precisely because you are so smart that I said I don't What should be said.”

Cao Bo seemed to be sighing: "It is good for young people to have ambitions, but it is not good to show their ambitions. Haha, actually, I am not qualified to teach you anything. After all, I was not as good as you when I was your age. Woolen cloth."

Ju Jiaming felt even more uneasy after hearing this:
"My uncle's literary talent is extraordinary and he became famous at a young age. How can it be compared to Jiaming?"

At that time, Cao Bo showed amazing talent when he was 7 years old. When he was 15 years old, he was ordered to enter the palace and was kept in the palace by the Snow Emperor and Empress.This honor is still something that Cao often talks about with pride.
