I farmed and built a villa in ancient times

Chapter 224

Zhou Chenyu looked at his enthusiastic face and smiled lightly, "Then I will wait here for your good news."

"That's natural!" Xiao Qi responded readily, looking back at the government office, "Miss Zhou, I'll take the first step."

Zhou Chenyu nodded, "Let's go."

Xiaoqi held a stack of old case files and went to find the master anxiously.

He rushed back to Qingshui Town overnight carrying old case files of missing people in the surrounding areas. It was already Si Shi.

The winter sun climbed up to the eaves and dried up the water droplets accumulated in the courtyard for more than ten days.

"It's sunny." Xiao Qi smiled happily, walked through the courtyard, and went straight to the room where various files were stacked. Unexpectedly, when others arrived in front of the room, there were still candles lit in the room. It seemed that everyone I was so busy that I forgot to blow out the candles.

Only Liang Feng noticed that Xiao Qi was back at the door.With his hands free, he hurriedly stepped forward to help move some files, "Looking at how tired you are, go have a sip of tea first, and I will deal with the rest with the boss. Thank you for your hard work."

Xiao Qi looked at Brother Liang Feng in front of him. Brother Liang Feng was the master's right-hand man, and he once worked under his predecessor Zhang, so he couldn't make any mistakes.

He glanced at the flickering candles under the window and said, "Brother Feng, I'd better go back and answer the master's words first."

Liang Feng saw his nervous look and smiled, "He's inside, go ahead."

"Okay." Xiao Qi picked up a stack of books and hurried to the inner room, "Master."

Yang Xi was accustomed to sitting in front of the case with frowning, and had no time to raise his head. He only said: "Have you brought all the old case files I asked for?"

Xiao Qi nodded, "Master, I have brought them all according to your instructions."

Yang Xi moved the books in front of the case and made a space, "Put them all here."

"okay."

The old case files were neatly stacked in front of the desk. Yang Xi moved some out and immediately distributed them to Liang Feng. "There has been a lot of progress in the case in the past few days. Everyone has been working hard for a few days. At noon, you will bring it for me." Let's all go out and have a nice meal. Once you've finished eating, go back and rest for two days. You can keep these for now and give them to them in two days."

Liang Feng smiled and nodded, "Don't worry, I know what's going on."

Xiao Qi watched Brother Liang Feng walk out, and the master sat down again, leaving him there, unable to do anything to help, "Master, what can I do?"

Yang Xi glanced at him and said in a deep voice: "You have been running around outside these days, so there is no need to stay here today. You go back and rest for a day. After you have rested, come here to help."

"This?" Xiao Qi sat down reluctantly, "Master, I'm running around outside, so I can still get some sleep at night. You guys stay in the government office and flip through files day and night, and your eyes are all black and blue. . You people in this room need rest more than I do. I won’t go back."

Yang Xi looked at his energetic appearance and put some files in his hands into his hands, "Okay, then you can dig out all the missing persons cases recorded here in the past five years and the skeletons dug out of the dry wells." Compare the inferred looks one by one to see if there is any gain.”

"Yes, Master!" Xiao Qi took over the job, his idle eyes suddenly sobered up, and he sat down in an inconspicuous corner with the file in his arms.

Yang Xi raised his head while busy, glanced at the man working hard in the corner, and smiled happily.

The light that tilts towards the east in the morning gradually moves towards the west, passes straight through the courtyard, and sneaks into the house quietly.

Yang Xi caught the light beam with his peripheral vision, stood up and walked straight to Xiao Qi, taking away the file, "It's lunch time. You go out to eat with Liang Feng and go home to rest in the afternoon." "Yes, Master!" Xiao Qi stood up in a panic. Seeing that the master was motionless and showed no intention of going together, he wondered, "Master, aren't you coming with everyone?"

"I have to go to your Excellency's mansion later, so I won't go with you." Yang Xi took over the work in his hands, flipped through the files and sat down, "Fuck you, don't worry about me. "

"This?" Xiao Qi followed reluctantly. In a daze, he remembered the important events in the morning and said with wide eyes: "Master, I almost forgot to tell you something important. More than an hour ago, I met someone at the gate of the government office. It’s Miss Zhou’s turn.”

Yang Xi stopped turning the page and was suddenly distracted, "Why did she come to me?"

"Master, I don't know about this. Miss Zhou only asked me to tell you that you should go there to find her when you are done. She might be waiting there right now." Xiao Qi suppressed the raised corners of her mouth and spoke quickly After passing the message, he ran out.

Yang Xi looked at the boy running away, afraid that he would ask more questions.He shook his head helplessly, hesitated for a moment, then put down the file and walked towards the door with a horizontal knife.

He walked to the gate, separated by twos and threes of pedestrians, and immediately spotted a person wearing green clothes in the crowd.

She leaned against the stone lion, leaning her head against the rough and hard stones, knocking them intentionally or unintentionally.

Looking at that scene, Yang Xi couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips, and couldn't help but quicken his pace and walk down the stone stairs.

"It's almost past dinner time, why hasn't he come yet? Wait, Xiaoqi didn't forget to mention this, right?"

Zhou Chenyu muttered a few words. If he had known better, he would have stayed by the lake longer and could secretly squint his eyes.

"But I've come here..." She raised her head, and her eyes were dazzled by the dazzling sunlight.She subconsciously stretched out her hand to block it, blinked hard, and suddenly saw a blue figure walking towards her between her fingers.

She immediately moved her hand away happily and looked at the person in front of her with a smile, "I've been waiting for you."

Yang Xi walked forward slowly, his tall figure blocking the sunlight in front of her.

After more than ten days, when they met again, he was a little nervous and asked with concern:
"After waiting for so long, why didn't Xiao Qi tell me earlier?"

Zhou Chenyu smiled, "I know you are a busy person, how dare I disturb you so easily?"

"How is that possible?" Yang Xi was eager to explain. He lowered his eyes, but when he met her watery bright eyes, all the unnecessary words were lost in him.

Zhou Chenyu looked at him, pursed his lips with a smile, and asked him a question tirelessly.

"Yang Xi, do you feel that I am different today?"

"Different?"

Yang Xi blinked, raised his eyes to look at the person in front of him, and met Zhou Chenyu's eyes again. At that moment, his eyes only dared to stay on her face for a while, then he quickly looked away and shook his head nervously. He shook his head and said, "Yang Xi doesn't know."

Zhou Chenyu couldn't help but smile when he saw his expression that he didn't dare to look directly but pretended to be calm.

"You're a straight man, I'm sorry you can't tell." She quickly turned over the article, raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "Yang Xi, I haven't eaten yet, you probably haven't had lunch either, right? It's such a coincidence, How about we have dinner together?"
