Xia Nan's gaze shifted shallowly, fell on Hu Hai on the side, and asked him with his eyes. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"What's going on?"

The latter received her gaze, looked apologetic slightly, and looked helplessly at everyone.

Xia Nan's eyes were quite cold, and he swept around the people below, and everywhere he went, there was silence.

When a group of people saw her indifferent eyes, their hearts trembled for no reason, and the words that originally came to their mouths were even more like a fish in their throats, and they were forced to hold back.

Xia Nan saw that everyone finally quieted down.

Only then did he speak slowly.

"You want to see me?"

Her eyes were locked on the man who was the leader, the man had seen her before, and he was no stranger to her, he saw Xia Nan with a smile on the corner of his lips, but he never forgot that this was a ruthless woman, when he saw her again this time, he was inevitably weak-hearted, but he had the courage to step forward.

"That's right! I know that you are the eldest lady of the owner's family, and now only you can help us, you know that this land is no longer good, the rice that was just planted two days ago has been attacked by locusts again today, eldest lady, it's not that we oppose you, but you have to think about us, we are a large group of people, all rely on these harvests to support our lives! The man spoke very sincerely, and Xia Nan's eyelashes drooped slightly, as if he was acquiescing.

I just listened to the man's words, and then said.

"Miss, last year's locust plague, the Jiang family was not affected by the disaster at all, we might as well cooperate with the Jiang family?"

Some people took the lead, and many people immediately followed.

"That's right, Miss, if we cooperate with the Jiang family, even if the locusts can't be completely exterminated, we can also guarantee a harvest this year, so that we will not only have rations, but also teach more rent, right?"

The people below were gossiping, all of them were persuading Xia Nan to cooperate with the Jiang family.

She listened to all this, but she suddenly wanted to laugh, and looked at Hu Hai quietly, but saw that his face was as usual, and he looked at the people below him with his eyebrows and eyes.

Only now did she understand what Yan Jue was talking about.

If this crop is a chess game that is fenced, then she is the white son who breaks the game.

And Hu Hai is the chess piece that lured the enemy deep at the beginning.

The Jiang family, on the other hand, is the 'enemy' that surrounds them.

After a group of people finished talking, Xia Nan remained silent.

Today, she is wearing a light red embroidered lotus petal twinkle pattern all over the gold jacket skirt, wearing nine phoenix wings on her head, the step is slightly shaking, and the pearlescent golden rays are gorgeously reflected on the wall, like the blue waves and stars that move in Lingling. The eyes are glazed, as if there is a shining light, white skin and beautiful appearance, like a blooming begonia.

She didn't speak, and the people below gradually stopped talking.

In the silence, a peasant woman suddenly let out an exclamation.

"Yikes!"

The swarthy and simple man on the side hurriedly grabbed the peasant woman, "What are you calling nonsense!" ”

As if she didn't feel the pull of the man, the peasant woman still looked at Xia Nan with wide eyes, this woman ...... Isn't that the one who asked her for news!

She thought it was a Jiaojiao lady running around in a certain family, but she didn't expect it to be the eldest lady of her own family.

The peasant woman only felt that there was thunder rolling in the sky, and for a moment, she did not know how to react.

Xia Nan looked at her, and suddenly smiled gently, which frightened the peasant woman.

She spoke lightly.

"Who said I have to cooperate with the Jiang family?"

As soon as she said this, the tenants below couldn't help but question.

"Miss, did you come up with any good ideas?"

A light smile swept up at the corner of her lips, and her red lips were slightly raised, as if the peach blossoms were blooming in March, which was extremely beautiful.

"Hmm."

"Miss......" Hu Hai looked at her, wanting to speak again.

All the men below frowned, no matter how they believed that Xia Nan was a delicate lady from the capital and not the Jiang family, who had deep enlightenment!

"You go back first, I have my own measure in this matter."

The others were still suspicious, but Xia Nan's attitude was too tough, and before they could leave, he turned around and left, ignoring them no longer.

They had no choice but to leave angrily.

Soon after they left, Mr. Tong returned, along with a man and a letter.

The man was wearing a gray robe with a delicate face, but when his eyes touched Xia Nan, he couldn't help but shrink, and then lowered his head heavily.

Xia Nan was suspicious, so Mr. Tong explained for her.

"Miss, this is Ah Heng."

Ah Heng was timid and dark, not daring to look at Xia Nan squarely.

Before Xia Nan could speak, he directly said it all in one breath.

"I can prove that I have seen Hu Hai order several people to move out several burlap bags, and the burlap bags were full of locusts, and they flew out suddenly, everywhere, and I was so frightened that I dared to hide behind a tree, and then ran away in a hurry."

"Who are you?"

Xia Nan was puzzled.

The young man named Ah Heng looked no more than twelve or thirteen years old, his face was delicate and immature, and he didn't dare to look at her directly, but when he heard her mention Hu Hai, there was a trace of resentment in his eyes.

"I'm Ah Heng!"

The young man was stubborn and refused to say anything, Xia Nan looked at Mr. Tong, Mr. Tong nodded lightly at her, and Xia Nan was not entangled in his identity.

"Do you have any proof that the countless locusts were the work of the Shovel?"

Xia Nan noticed that he called Hu Hai not as the manager of the city, but by his name, and it was obvious that this young man seemed to have a grudge with Hu Hai.

Ah Heng had a beautiful face, but his eyes were full of resentment.

"I have!"

The boy pulled a piece of wood from his cuff.

The wood is dark green, although it is wood, but the surface is smooth, and the surface is even more luster.

Xia Nan looked at the thing in her hand, very puzzled, she didn't ask, Ah Heng took the lead in speaking.

"This piece of wood is a unique symbol of the Jiang family!"

"The Jiang family has a habit, that is, the people of the Jiang family, regardless of the size of the position, each Jiang family has such a piece of wood in their hands, the wood is divided into seven grades, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, the higher you go, the more noble the status of this person in the Jiang family, and this wood is what I stole from Hu Hai's drawer!"

Ah Heng spoke very urgently and in detail, as if he was worried that Xia Nan would doubt his words, so he hurriedly said.

"If you don't believe it, look at the two sides of this wood, whether the fingertips are slightly raised, and there is Hu Hai's name engraved there. Every piece of wood in the Jiang family was engraved with the person's name to prevent it from being impersonated. ”

Xia Nan looked at the wood, her fingertips moved, and she really touched a bulge, and her eyebrows were lightly raised.

At the bottom of the impression is engraved a very small font, which is 'sea'.

Xia Nan looked at the young man, "You mean, Steward Hu is from the Jiang family?" ”

As soon as the words fell, Ah Heng nodded emphatically.

When Hu Hai was mentioned, there was deep resentment in his eyes.

"He is not only a member of the Jiang family, but also my father-killing enemy!" (To be continued.) )
