Early this morning, Ban'er really went to the town in a hurry, because he was afraid that he would be too publicized and attract attention, so he asked the concierge of the government office what cases there were recently. The porter of the pen and the court www.biquge.info thought that he was a servant sent by some lawyer, so he said a few irrelevant words and sent him away.

Ban'er had no power and power, and there was no way to ask for directions, so he had to come back dejected, and when he entered the house, he knew that Qiao'er had gone out, leaving Qing'er in the house, just waiting for Ban'er to come back. Qing'er told Ban'er what Qiao'er said when she left: "The girl said, the uncle invited her to go to the house to play, and she won't come back until the evening, so she asked her brother to wait for her when he comes back." ”

After hearing this, Ban'er's heart moved, but she didn't want her to be so alert, knowing that she might not be able to find out the news from the government, so she went to Zhou's mansion to check one or two, and then she didn't delay anymore and went out to Zhou's mansion.

When Qiao'er got over there, the little guy outside the door was more familiar with her, so she let him in without informing him. Qiao'er walked to Xuhui Garden, Mingyue in the courtyard with two little maids was pruning flowers and leaves, and when she saw her, she smiled and stepped forward and said, "Why did you come here, the uncle just got up, and he was having breakfast." ”

Qiao'er forced a smile to herself: "Because I have nothing to do at home, I came to find my uncle to say a few words of gossip, is my sister busy now?" ”

Mingyue spread out her hand with a smile: "What can I do, Uncle Danyang and Meihua Xinghua are waiting for me, and I don't need to go." Brother has to tell me anything. ”

Qiao'er pursed her lips, lowered her head slightly, and whispered: "I don't dare to tell my sister, I just ask more, what did Sister Qingping in the house do?" ”

Mingyue was startled, coughed hurriedly, and raised her voice to the little maid who was two steps away behind her: "You two be careful, don't touch the bamboo begonia." ”

The little maid Ling'er turned around and smiled sweetly and agreed.

Mingyue quietly motioned Qiao'er to go to the room with her, because Zhou Fuxiang's breakfast has always been in the porridge room, and the little maids didn't have to wait, so they all went to find someone to play, and there was no one else in the house.

Mingyue entered the door and covered the curtain, and looked through the gap to see that no one came in for a while, so she grabbed Qiao'er and asked, "Brother, did you hear the wind?" ”

Qiao'er didn't dare to say that she saw it with her own eyes yesterday, so she nodded, agreeing with her words.

Mingyue couldn't help sighing, let go of her hand and said regretfully: "Pity her for being such a good person as crystal heart, she almost didn't bluff her wife yesterday, but we are still a big family within a radius of 100 miles, and those officers and soldiers don't dare to be very domineering, saying that they came in to ask the master for peace, and only took it." Well, my sisters and sisters are so kind on weekdays, whoever wants to have an accident with her. As he spoke, his eyes turned red.

Qiao'er's heart was like ice, so she just grabbed Mingyue's sleeve and asked, "Please tell me clearly, what is it for?" ”

Mingyue said: "We didn't listen very carefully, we just said that Qingping's origin is unknown, it turned out to be a woman from a fallen official family in the city, who should have been exiled for the crime, but I don't know who sold it, and was bought by our house in a daze." Just for this, Aunt Guo, the companion of her wife who originally recommended her, also got a lot of no. If she hadn't been with her wife for a long time, she would have been thrown out of the house like a comprador yesterday. Hey, that's what I said, Qingping's character brother knows, kind and dignified, generous, and kind, and there is no one in the house who does not praise it, and there is no one who does not like it. Although he asked someone to take it, his wife was reluctant to give it up. When my brother came today, she didn't go to his wife's house, she felt so uncomfortable that she went to a green apple, and the room was almost messed up. ”

"Thank you, sister, for mentioning." Qiao'er responded, because she didn't see Zhou Fuxiang, and she had already heard what she wanted to know most, it was inconvenient to stay longer, so she said goodbye and came out of the room with a sad heart.

Out of the gate, the sun has risen to the top sky, as bright as gold, almost scorching people's eyes. Qiao'er subconsciously raised her hand to cover her eyes, and in the world of white flowers, the despair of the sky rushed in, wanting to destroy her. If something happens to Qingping, then there is no one in this world who regards her as a close relative. and there is no one who regards her as his own son.

Two lines of tears fell down her cheeks at some point, the corners of her mouth were faintly salty and sour, Qiao'er walked down the steps aimlessly, and she didn't even say hello to the little guys, she was defeated like a mountain, and now she thinks she is very smart, and she doesn't know how to save Apple from the sea of swords.

She walked dejectedly, Ban'er had already seen her figure in the distance, hurriedly walked a few steps over, just about to ask carefully, lowered her eyebrows and saw Qiao'er's swollen and blushing eyes, she was stunned for a moment, but when she reacted, she had already pulled her hand down, frowned, and said, "Sister, what's wrong?" ”

Qiao'er suddenly came back to her senses, hurriedly turned her face away, and stretched out her hand to wipe away her tears.

Ban'er thought to herself and knew what she had inquired about, so she cautiously asked her, "How is Miss Ping?" ”

Qiao'er's tears were half dry, and when she saw him asking, she had to choke up and said: "I don't know who stabbed it out, saying that my sister is a woman from a criminal family, and now I am only afraid of being locked up in prison, I don't know if I have suffered." ”

Ban'er took a deep breath and understood that this matter was really tricky, but he also had to comfort Qiao'er with his spirit: "Back then, Miss Ping was originally pawned and sold, and this time she was re-arrested, I was afraid that there would be grievances in it, so I had to wait for two days to see what was going on, and let's think about it again." ”

He was helpless to say such a thing, but Qiao'er was full of excitement, and he was worried and cautious, but the authorities were confused. As soon as she heard what Ban'er said at this time, she suddenly remembered that in addition to direct blood relatives like herself, she would be sent to prison and exiled. The family members who are waiting for Qingping will only be sold at a discount if they are not handed over to the local government, and there will be no reason to sell them and find them back.

Then, if Ping'er is detained, it will only be ......

Qiao'er felt a chill in her heart, trying her best to avoid that terrible thought, but she had to believe that only by taking the blame for herself who escaped could Ping'er be arrested and brought to justice.

The fingertips tightened unconsciously, and a bloody mark was pinched on Ban'er's strong arm. Ban'er endured the pain, held Qiao'er's hand and called, "What's wrong with you?" ”

Qiao'er turned her head sadly, looked directly at the young man in front of her, who was half a head taller than herself, and cried out for a while: "Brother, Sister Ping'er is going for me." ”

Ban'er's eyelids jumped lightly, and he looked at the weak but stubborn girl in front of him, so many days of getting along, the two have long been like brothers and sisters, although he has never broken his affection, but he will think about everything for her. At this time, looking at Qiao'er's appearance of the six gods and no owner, he couldn't help but feel distressed: "Don't think nonsense, she is her, you are you, how can it be for you?" ”

Qiao'er shook her head, wanting to say, but she didn't know where to start. Ban'er touched her forehead lovingly, and looked at the family members of the Zhou Mansion behind her who were still looking here, and said, "If you have anything to say, wait until you go home, and let people see it carefully." ”

Qiao'er frowned, then nodded and followed Ban'er back. was silent all the way, Ban'er knew that she had something on her mind, and she didn't want to bother her at this time, so the two entered the house one after the other.

Qing'er and grandma Wang Liu are all there, yesterday because of the tight wind, the families closed their doors and did not dare to come out, today seeing that the officers and soldiers have left, Aunt Li came to Wang's house to visit the door, and the words did not mention yesterday's events.

Qiao'er just entered the door, and heard Aunt Li in the courtyard shouting: "Hey, hey, it almost scared me half of my life, and those officials didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, and rushed into the courtyard with a knife." My mother, I was so scared that I couldn't speak, I just thought that our two bastards had caused some kind of disaster. ”

"Who's to say it isn't?" Wang Liu and Grandma Liu patted their chests and bluffed, "We were also shocked, but Ban'er is quite stable on weekdays, but I don't want him to cause any trouble, I'm just afraid that they are going to make trouble and come down to get oil and water." The harvest of these two seasons is not as good as before, and if it is really false, the family will not know where to drink the northwest wind. ”

Tut-tut!

Aunt Li smacked her lips, shook her head angrily and pitifully: "If it is really as grandma said, we don't know whose family has fallen into bad luck here." As soon as she looked up and saw Qiao'er and Ban'er coming in, Aunt Li changed her smile and said, "Where did you come from early in the morning?" ”

Ban'er said, "Hello aunt." He also said, "We came up from Zhuangzi, and the rain hasn't come down for the past two days, so let's see if the ground is dry." ”

Aunt Li sighed, and praised with her sleeves: "Look at Brother Ban'er's ability, I don't know how many hundred times stronger than our second boy." Yesterday I was worried for a long time, so I pressed him to the house, no, I went out to play crazy this morning, and said that I wanted to inquire about what was going on. ”

Before she finished speaking, Qiao'er's complexion had changed a few times, and Grandma and Wang Liu thought she was tired, and they both said: "It's only been a few days since you came back, and you shouldn't take a good rest, what are you doing on Zhuangzi with Ban'er?" ”

Qiao'er didn't say a word, turned around and went back to the room.

Grandma and Wang Liu didn't know what to do, and when they saw that Ban'er was leaving, they hurriedly grabbed him and said, "Brother Qiao, what's wrong?" ”

Ban'er opened his mouth several times to stop talking, and the anxious Wang Liu slapped him a few times, and was about to scold, when he suddenly saw Li Shun standing outside the gate, poking his head out and looking in. Wang Liu hurriedly said: "Brother Shun, come in." ”

Li Shun smiled and scratched his head and came in, seeing that Grandma Qing'er and Ban'er were all there, so they all said hello.

Aunt Li chirped: "Sneaky things, what are you doing standing outside, what's the matter?" ”

Li Shun sighed, and said with a smile: "I went out to inquire in the morning, and I have already got the news, and the one who was arrested was a member of the family in the old man's mansion in the west." ”

Aunt Li, Wang Liu, and Grandma Liu were both stunned, and asked him in unison: "Who was arrested in Master Zhou's mansion?" ”

Li Shun said: "It was said that a girl who was serving his wife was arrested, what is her name Qingping." (To be continued.) (To be continued.) )
