After Gu Xuan finished speaking, he looked at Shen Qiao fixedly. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Shen Qiaowan smiled and said, "Gu Xuan, if you say this, I will suffer a loss." ”

Gu Xuan was stunned for a moment and said, "What are you suffering?" ”

Shen Qiao smiled: "Look, you have three women in your heart, and in my heart, there are only two men, my father and you." Do you think I'm at a loss? Do I have to recognize another brother or something? ”

Gu Xuan reacted and said: "After returning to the capital, you have two righteous brothers and one righteous brother, plus your father-in-law, with your logic, it is still me who will suffer in the end!" ”

The two of them looked at each other and laughed.

The topic of green plums was also bypassed.

"Shizi, Miss Shen, the prefect's yamen has arrived."

After a while, Ngawang stopped the carriage and drove the curtain.

"Let's go down!"

Gu Xuan leaned out of the carriage first, then got out of the carriage and stretched out his hand.

Shen Qiao smiled, put his hand on it, and then got out of the car with his strength, and let go of Gu Xuan's hand.

The three of them stood at the door and waited for a while, and Xie Cheng's broken carriage slowly rushed back.

As soon as his car arrived, the official guarding the door immediately stepped forward and said, "Lord Qiqi, there is an accident in the house, and the lady asks the little one to bring a letter to the adult after seeing the adult here, please return to the house immediately." ”

Xie Cheng got out of the carriage and nodded.

The expression was still the same frowning look.

I didn't look more anxious because I heard that something was going on in the house.

"Come with me, both of you."

Xie Cheng walked up to Shen Qiao and Gu Xuan and said.

Then let the official take Ngawang to the carriage.

Xie Cheng's mansion was in the backyard of the yamen, and he took Shen Qiao and Gu Xuan directly through the yamen.

As soon as I entered, I saw a middle-aged woman under forty or so walking forward with a child about twelve years old, it was Xie Cheng's wife and his youngest son.

"Master, you're finally back, if you don't come back, I'll have someone look for you."

Mrs. Xie said anxiously.

"What's wrong? Why did you come to the front room? What a system this becomes! ”

Xie Cheng said with a frown.

"Aunt Hong, Xiaorui."

Gu Xuan stepped forward to greet Mrs. Xie and the child.

"Gu Shizi? What are you doing here? ”

The kid named Xie Rui said with a straight face.

"Ah Xuan! But Ah Xuan? ”

Mrs. Xie found Gu Xuan and said with a surprised face.

"It's me, Aunt Hong. I haven't seen you for many years, how is Aunt Hong? ”

Gu Xuan smiled.

"Good, good. When did you arrive in Yunzhou? Why didn't you come earlier? Aunt Hong hasn't seen you in almost ten years. I've become a big guy, and the older I get, the more handsome I get! ”

Mrs. Xie guessed Gu Xuan's identity only when she heard Xie Rui call Gu Shizi.

She hasn't been back to Beijing for 10 years.

Her two children go back to the ancestral house in Beijing every year for the New Year, so they know Gu Xuan.

"Aunt Hong is still as young as ever. I've been there for a few days, playing in various counties, and I've only arrived in Fucheng in the last few days. ”

Gu Xuan said.

"Ahem, didn't you say something happened? What happened? ”

Xie Cheng interrupted the two of them and asked.

"Oh, yes, yes." Mrs. Xie's face changed, and she said to Gu Xuan: "Ah Xuan, Aunt Hong will talk to you again in a while, I will talk to your uncle first, you wait!" ”

After speaking, he said to Xie Cheng: "Master, our Jiaojiao is gone." When I got up from a nap, I asked people to go to her house and call her, but I couldn't find anyone. I asked the people at the gates, but no one saw her leave, and the backyard was all over, but there was still no shadow. Yun'er said that Jiaojiao'er took a nap in the house after lunch, and asked a few of their maids not to disturb her. However, when I asked people to call, they were gone. ”

Xie Cheng's face finally changed color, and he hurriedly said, "Can you find it all?" Is there anything missing? You've got people asking about the gatekeepers? ”

Mrs. Xie nodded, if it weren't for Gu Xuan and Shen Qiao here, she would probably have cried.

"Aunt Hong, when did you have lunch? When did Jiaojiao rest? ”

Gu Xuan asked.

"I ate it at noon, Ah Xuan, you may not know, our Jiaojiao family has to eat two bowls of rice on weekdays, but today at noon, she ate four bowls, and she said she was sleepy after eating. I also said to be careful of food accumulation, let her walk before going to sleep. But she said she was sleepy. ”

Mrs. Xie replied.

Xie Cheng looked at Xie Rui, who was standing on the side, and said, "Where did you go with your sister last night?" ”

Mrs. Xie, Gu Xuan and Shen Qiao all looked at the father and son, and they didn't understand why Xie Cheng would ask like this.

That Xie Rui's little man stood very upright, with one hand behind his back and the other on his chest, hearing Xie Cheng's question, he put down his hand unhurriedly, first saluted Xie Cheng, and then said, "Back to my father's words." The son and sister knew today that their father was heartbroken about the missing girls in the city, so the son and sister wanted to help. After the mother fell asleep, the son went out the back door with his sister to see what was going on in the missing girl's house. ”

Mrs. Xie didn't expect her twelve-year-old son and fifteen-year-old daughter to run out at night while she was asleep, looking incredulous.

"You ...... Monkey business! ”

Xie Cheng pointed at Xie Rui, so angry that he couldn't speak.

Xie Rui's face was calm.

"Xiaorui, what can you and Jiaojiao see? Also, Jiaojiao is gone, why don't you look in a hurry at all. ”

Gu Xuan looked at Xie Rui's appearance and said quite speechlessly.

Xie Rui glanced at Gu Xuan, and then looked at Xie Chengdao: "Father, my son and my sister went to those people's homes, and they all found a problem. Moreover, the son is sure that his sister was also arrested by one person, or the same group, just like those missing girls. ”

"What's the problem?"

Xie Cheng asked.

Xie Rui said: "My son and sister were afraid that it would be too late, and the maid found out that we escaped and sued our mother, so there were only seven families. We took the Night Pearl, one by one, and at first, we didn't find anything, but finally, when we were in the fifth house, my son found that there was a tree at the door of that house. ”

The corners of Xie Cheng and Gu Xuan's mouths twitched, there are trees?

Your two siblings ran to the door of someone's house at night and found a tree in front of their door?

Xie Cheng was about to open his mouth to reprimand, but was preempted by Shen Qiao.

Shen Qiao said: "Little boy, did you find that there are trees in front of the doors of the seven households, and there are the same marks on the trees?" You said earlier that you are sure that your sister is the same as those girls, does it have the same mark on the tree in front of your house? ”

Xie Rui looked at Shen Qiao, gave her an appreciative look, and said, "Yes." You're smart, I like it. I don't have a smart maid like you by my side, would you like to come to me? Don't worry, I will give you a high salary, my father and mother don't want to, I will use my own money to invite you. ”
