Chapter 357 Disappearing out of thin air
Chapter 357 Disappearing out of thin air
"In the past two years, I have rented out a few houses. The price is cheap and someone rents them out, so I can make some income."

"The location of our house is a bit out of the way, but the transportation is quite convenient, and there should be people renting it."

"Yes, but there has been a lot of rain in the past two years, and the house leaked quite seriously. The person who rented the house used to fix the computer for others and lost money. In addition, the money I earned from the barbecue stall was enough to spend, so I didn't rent it at all. Yes, I’m clean even if I live alone.”

Xia Yaohua muttered.

Xia Xiaoxi nodded.

"Speaking of which, I haven't been back for several years." Xia Xiaoxi smiled slightly.

"Yeah, after you left, the house has always been deserted, and Yiyi didn't go back to live at first. There are only me and your grandparents in the house, and now I'm the only one left."

Xia Yaohua sighed deeply, "It's inevitable that being alone will be deserted, but being alone also has benefits. Do you still remember the tank at the door of our house?"

"Remember, it is said to be passed down from the ancestors, and it has never been thrown away." Xia Xiaoxi replied.

"I planted a lotus in that jar, and it blooms beautifully every summer, but it's a pity that it's winter now, so I can't see the lotus."

Xia Yaohua smiled regretfully.

Xia Xiaoxi pursed her lips, "I haven't gone back for a long time, and I suddenly want to go back and have a look."

"Okay, if you are not in a hurry to go home, go back and have a look, I can cook, I will cook some dishes for you, let you try." Xia Yaohua stared at Xia Xiaoxi happily.

Xia Xiaoxi turned her head to the front, "Master Tian, ​​please drive to our house, do you know the address?"

"Madam, isn't that good? My husband said that I will let you go home after going to the cemetery."

"It's okay, go home and go home. It won't take long. Since my husband agrees with me coming out, it's okay to come out for a while."

"Okay then, tell me the address." Master Tian had no choice but to agree, after all Xia Xiaoxi is the hostess.

Xia Xiaoxi told the master the address, and the car drove to Xia Xiaoxi's home.

After getting out of the car, Xia Yaohua helped Xia Xiaoxi out of the car.

The bodyguards also all came down.

"You all don't go in. Our house is not big. If you all go in like this, it's not convenient for me to talk. I'll go in and walk around. It won't be too long."

Xia Xiaoxi ordered.

The bodyguards looked at each other, "Madam, please hurry up, if there is anything, remember to call us."

"Okay, you just wait for me at the door, I will come as I go."

Xia Xiaoxi and Xia Yaohua entered the yard together.

Perhaps because he was worried about being suspected, Xia Yaohua directly opened the gate, and he could see the whole courtyard from the gate.

The jar at the door was still there, and Xia Xiaoxi saw a defeated lotus in it.

"It will germinate next spring. This thing is resistant to cold and won't die. It will bloom again next summer. I'll ask you to come and see it."

Xia Xiaoxi supported her waist and nodded, "Okay."

"You slow down."

Xia Xiaoxi looked around and found that there were many flower pots in the yard, and some of the plants inside had withered.

Xia Yaohua smiled embarrassingly, "I feel bored by myself, and I grow them for fun. In winter, there is nothing left, and there are still a few pots in the house. They are green all year round, but they don't bloom."

"It must be very beautiful here in summer, right? It must be better than before at home."

"Yes, the former servants in the family also planted some things that are easy to feed, and I was not interested in these before."

Seeing that the two of them were chatting happily, the servant outside the door didn't care.

"Xiaoxi, are you thirsty? I'll go in and get you a glass of water."

After saying that, Xia Yaohua went straight in, and Xia Xiaoxi followed behind.

The entrance is an old-fashioned mahogany chair. Xia Xiaoxi still remembers that when she was young, her grandfather would often sit here drinking tea, and her father would occasionally sit here and read a book.

Everything in the living room has not changed, it is still the same.

These things look so old, full of sense of the times.

"Xiao Xi, the water is a bit hot, you can drink it later." Xia Yaohua brought Xia Xiaoxi a glass of water.

"Hey, sit down and take a rest." Xia Xiaoxi said.

The two chatted about their childhood and laughed from time to time.

The bodyguards outside the door could even hear the chatter inside, after all, they didn't close the door.

After a while, the bodyguards began to feel bored and started playing with their mobile phones.

A more vigilant bodyguard reminded: "Hey, be vigilant, stop playing! If something happens to Madam, let's all die!"

"Oh, it's okay, isn't that my wife's own father? What can happen? The two of them are chatting well!"

"That's right, this gentleman is making too much of a fuss!"

After a while no one spoke.

Suddenly, a bodyguard put away the phone, "There seems to be no sound inside."

The bodyguards immediately put away their mobile phones, "It seems like hey, what are you doing? Why is there no movement?"

"No, there is a sound, the sound of cooking!" A bodyguard pricked up his ears to listen.

"Didn't the wife say that she would come out after a while? Why hasn't she come out after so long?"

"Yeah, you've been in for about an hour, right?"

Everyone began to become suspicious, and finally decided to go in and have a look together.

The bodyguards walked in immediately and found that there was no one in the living room, and the sound of non-stop stir-frying came from the kitchen.

They immediately turned to the kitchen.

Xia Yaohua was busy in the kitchen, when he heard footsteps, he immediately said: "Xiaoxi, are you hungry? It's almost ready, I have one more dish to cook for you."

"Hey! Where's our wife?!"

When Xia Yaohua turned his head, he didn't see Xia Xiaoxi, but saw the bodyguards.

He immediately turned off the fire, "It's in the living room!"

"There's no one in the living room!"

Xia Yaohua immediately rushed to the living room, "Hey, I just asked her to wait for me in the living room, why? Did you go to the bathroom?"

After talking, Xia Yaohua yelled twice: "Xiaoxi! Xiaoxi, are you in the bathroom?"

No one responded.

The bodyguards looked at each other.

Xia Yaohua suddenly saw the note left on the table, he picked it up and saw Xia Xiaoxi's handwriting on it.

"Dad, I won't eat anymore, I'm leaving first, and I'll come to see you another day."

Xia Yaohua showed the note to the bodyguards, "Xiao Xi is gone, didn't you see her at the door?"

"No! We've been guarding the door, and we haven't seen my wife go out at all!" Only then did the bodyguards realize that something was wrong.

"Could it be that the wife has moved to another room?"

After saying this, the bodyguards rushed upstairs and searched every room, but they didn't even find the bathroom.

"Strange, how could my wife disappear out of thin air?"
