Qiao Zhao's hand stopped beside his eyes.

The voice sounded again: "Miss Lisan, if you are interested, you'd better not take off the black scarf." ”

Qiao Zhao silently put his hand down, leaning his back against the wall of the car and no longer making any movement.

The carriage seemed to pass through the downtown area, and there was a shouting outside.

"Steamed buns, steaming old Wang's steamed buns, with thin skin and stuffing, I still want to eat them-"

"Tofu brain, sister-in-law Yang's tofu brain-"

Qiao Zhao listened attentively, and another voice sounded: "This little girl is quite interesting, she is not in a hurry." ”

The previous voice was dissatisfied: "If you say less, you will lose if you say more." ”

"It's just a little girl—"

"She's the fiancée of Champion Hou!"

There was no sound in the carriage, but Qiao Zhao knew that there were at least two people in the carriage besides her.

She woke up halfway through, unable to calculate the distance the carriage had traveled, and now it seemed that she could only improvise when she reached her destination.

The Li family was still calm at this time.

Binglu came back from practicing his fists and feet, leaning against the pillar and wiping his sweat while asking Ah Zhu, who was guarding the small stove: "What are you cooking?" ”

"Boil some lily chicken porridge and wait for the girl to come back to eat, the girl has not been resting well recently. Ah Zhu stared intently at the fire, sometimes fanning a few times with a fan.

"Where's the girl?"

"Just now, the fourth girl came over and invited the girl to Jinrong Garden. ”

"Oh, then I'll go wash first, and I'll feed the two breads later. ”

The two maids went their own way and didn't think much about it.

A few steps from Yaheyuan to Jinrong Garden, it is normal for the master not to take the maid with him when he is active in the backyard.

But seeing that it was almost noon and Qiao Zhao hadn't come back, Binglu was a little anxious: "Ah Zhu, why hasn't the girl come back yet, is it possible to stay with the second wife to eat?"

Ah Zhu looked at the porridge on the stove, and was inexplicably a little uneasy: "The second wife is pregnant, the girl shouldn't bother for too long, even if she stays there to eat, Jinrongyuan should send someone to say it." ”

Mrs. Deng is diligent and thrifty, and usually the masters go to the big kitchen to cook according to the number of people, and whoever eats elsewhere will explain to the maid.

"I'll go to Jinrong Court to have a look. Binglu left Yahe Garden quickly and went straight to Jinrong Garden, and happened to meet the maid of Jinrong Yuan on the way carrying a food box out.

"Xiaoling, are our three girls eating at your wife's?"

The little girl shook her head: "No, my sisters didn't explain to me." ”

"That's weird. Binglu waved at the little maid and entered the gate of Jinrong Garden.

"What, our girl is long gone?"

"Yes, the third girl talked to our wife for a while and left, and at that time the wife asked the fourth girl to send her, but the third girl didn't let her. ”

"But our girl didn't go back, could it be that she went somewhere else?" Binglu hurriedly ran to the He family, heard that Qiao Zhao had not come and rushed to Qingsong Hall, and after looking for a place that could be found, he returned to Yaheyuan in frustration.

"Azhu, it's strange to say it's not strange, I searched all over the backyard and didn't find our girl, did the girl go out?"

Ah Zhu's expression was solemn: "Probably not, didn't the girl just say that she won't go out in the near future, not to mention that now many people outside want to invite our girl to be a guest, and even the people from Rui Wangfu have come to invite several times, and the old lady blocked it in the name of the girl's illness, how can the girl go out in this case? ”

"What do you mean—"

"I think something is wrong, you look at the house, I'll go and report to the old lady. ”

After Ah Zhu finished speaking, he pulled his legs and left, and Binglu chased after him: "What kind of home do you see, if you can't find the girl, what kind of home will there be!"

The two maids hurried to the Green Pine Hall.

"You say you can't find your girl?" Old Madam Deng's face sank, "Explain the situation to me carefully." ”

After listening to Ah Zhu's words, Mrs. Deng instructed Qingyun: "Go and invite the four girls." ”

It didn't take long for Li Yan to arrive, and after some inquiry, Mrs. Deng sent a maid to look for her everywhere in the house, but Qiao Zhao was still nowhere to be found until it was dark.

The atmosphere in Qingsong Hall was already gloomy, and there was only the sound of Li Yan trying to suppress her gasps.

"Don't cry. Old Madam Deng rubbed her eyebrows.

Li Yan knelt down: "Grandmother, it's all my fault, if I hadn't invited the third sister to Jinrong Garden, or sent her back when the third sister left, the third sister wouldn't have disappeared inexplicably." ”

Old Madam Deng sighed: "I can't blame you for this." Four girls, don't tell your mother and your uncle about what your third sister doesn't see, one of them just got pregnant and the other gave birth to a child, and they can't stand this. ”

"The granddaughter knows. ”

Old Madam Deng looked at Binglu: "Go and call the morning light." ”

"Bh. Binglu replied and ran quickly.

"The three girls are gone?" Chenguang was shocked when he heard this.

Binglu wiped her tears and pushed him: "Don't ask, the old lady is waiting to see you, hurry up and follow me!"

Chenguang hurried to the Green Pine Hall.

"Chenguang, the old man believes that your general has arrangements for the safety of the three girls, right?" asked Mrs. Deng straight to the point.

"Yes, there are all our people outside Loei, if the three girls go out, we will definitely know. ”

"Then what if someone kidnaps the three girls and climbs over the wall?"

"Old lady, our people are walking around Loei a few steps and a post, if this is the case, it will be faster than walking through the gate to be discovered. ”

"That's weird. Mother Rong, you take a few people to the back garden......" Old Madam Deng paused, closed her eyes and said, "Take a look at the dry well!"

"Old lady!" Chenguang was startled, and there was no trace of blood on his face.

"What are you doing in a daze, go!"

The time became extraordinarily long, and it was not until Mother Rong led people back and shook her head at Mrs. Deng that Mrs. Deng sat down on the Taishi chair.

"It's good if you don't have it, it's good if you don't have The old lady instantly seemed to be more than ten years old.

"Old lady, I want to know what happened on this day, and I can't leave anything out, especially the situation in and out of the house. Chenguang said coldly.

He was calm on the surface, but cold in his heart.

If something happens to the third girl, how should he explain to the general? Even if he dies, he can't atone for his sins!

Old Madam Deng immediately called the steward for questioning.

Li Guangwen walked in drunken and blinked suspiciously: "Mother, there are a lot of people here today." ”

"You still have the face to come back, do you know how many people I sent to find you!"

Li Guangwen was very aggrieved: "My son doesn't want to, he was called to drink while he was still in the yamen, and he pestered me for an afternoon before getting out." Mother, is there something going on at home?"

Old Madam Deng was silent for a moment and said, "I said that you have to stay calm and don't make trouble. ”

Li Guangwen smiled: "Look at what my mother said, when did my son not calm down? ”
