Chapter Twenty-Eight: Bad News Again

The Su family has been preparing happily for more than half a month, and today is the day when the Xue family is scheduled to be hired. Master Su specially asked for leave to stay at home today, waiting to receive the people hired by the Xue family.

Everyone was full of joy and waited since the morning, and the Song family sent maids to the door from time to time to take a look, but they didn't come! Didn't come! Still didn't come!

Seeing that it was about to be noon, the original joy gradually changed a little, Linglong was waiting in the backyard, and when he saw Zhihua coming back dejectedly, he shook his head, and Linglong was faintly uneasy.

Seeing that noon had passed, he still didn't come. Linglong couldn't sit still, she got up and walked around in the peach forest, thinking of the two fiancΓ©s who died inexplicably in front of her, the stones in her heart became heavier and heavier, could it be ...... Could it be that this body is really cursed? No matter who you are engaged to, will you be unlucky?

Is it such a coincidence? That's superstition, right? Superstition is not credible! Can...... But I've come from another world, isn't this superstition?

Linglong's heart was entangled, and the more time passed, the more uneasy her heart became.

It's already past noon, and everyone in the front yard is not calm, Master Su walked around the hall with his hands behind his back: "What's the matter, this Xue family is obviously their own pro, and it is a day they set for themselves, why is there even a shadow of a person when things come to the end?" ”

The Song family was also anxious, but had to comfort Master Su: "Don't worry, sir, Changzhou is one or two hundred miles away from here, uncle, they must have been delayed on the road, master, why don't you send someone to Changzhou official road or post station to inquire and see if there is any news of your uncle?" ”

Master Su stopped, really called the housekeeper, took the two middle-aged family members, and went out to inquire in person.

Song chased to the door and wanted to persuade him, but Master Su got into the carriage without saying a word and urged the coachman to leave quickly.

Time passed little by little, and Su Mansion didn't eat at noon, and one by one they either looked at the gate, or looked up at the sun in the sky.

Seeing that the sun was about to set in the west, the Song family was so anxious that they sent two groups of people out to find Master Su.

Linglong remembered that Xue Yongan was a relative of Gao Yang's family, so he asked his mother to send someone to Gao's family to inquire.

The news came back one after another, and the Gao family heard that Xue Yongan had set off for Jiangzhou the day before yesterday, but there was no one to see now, and they thought that Xue Yongan had come to the Su family to give a dowry.

Master Su also heard the news, and waited at the intersection of the official road, hoping that Xue Yongan was too much dowry and was delayed on the road.

The family was so anxious, Linglong was even more anxious and panicked, although she only had a one-sided relationship with Xue Yongan, but she had a good impression of this person, at least she felt that Xue Yongan and herself were the same kind of people and could get along well.

She made up her mind to live a good life with him in the future, and by the way, she made good use of what she had learned in modern times, and she must help Xue Yongan make the Xue family the richest man in the world, for which she has also done a lot of planning these days, and now it seems that she is no longer needed, and the disappointment is indescribable.

Zhishu sent tea and said timidly: "Miss, the son must pass through Hongye Mountain when he comes from Changzhou, right?" ”

Linglong has checked the map in the past few days, and the official road from Changzhou to Jiangzhou does have to pass through a place called Hongye Mountain: "How do you know? ”

"Miss Hui, the slave's hometown is at the foot of the Red Leaf Mountain."

"What's wrong with Momijiyama? Why did you bring this up all of a sudden? ”

"Miss, slave...... Slaves don't know whether to talk about it or not? ”

"Talk about reads;."

"Actually...... Since decades ago, there has been a gang of bandits on Momiji Mountain, who specialize in robbing passing merchants......"

Linglong stood up in shock: "You tell the truth...... Xue... Xue Yongan met a bandit? ”

Everyone looked at each other in shock when they heard this, and Song's voice trembled a little: "No...... No way! They often come and go on this road, and they should ...... There should be a way to circumvent it, right? ”

Everyone glanced at each other, lowered their heads one after another, no one could give her an answer, Linglong closed her eyes and took a deep breath, she faintly felt that Xue Yongan really had an accident, she blamed herself for a while, she knew that she wouldn't agree to him, if he didn't come to hire, nothing would have happened, I hurt an innocent person again.

Damn it! Is God kidding me? Let me live again, but I want to live alone for the rest of my life, is this a reward or a punishment? God, I don't seem to have done anything hurtful, have I? You can't tease me like that!

The family waited until late at night for Master Su to come back with a decadent face.

Everyone gathered around to ask about the situation, Linglong stood aside, looking at his father's appearance, she knew the result without asking, but she didn't confirm it with her own ears, and she was unwilling to walk away.

The father was helped to sit down and take a sip of tea, and sighed: "It's over!" ”

"What's going on? Sir, you make it clear. ”

"Alas, I just got the news that Xue Yongan was caught by thieves and taken to the mountain, I'm afraid it will be more auspicious! What the hell is going on? It's good to go so many times, why did the bandits suddenly do something to him, it's really ......"

"Madame! Madam! Song's eyes closed, and her body fell down softly, but fortunately, the maid next to her quickly caught her, and everyone hurriedly carried her back to the house, and invited a doctor overnight.

Early the next morning, the Su family was still asleep, and the news in Jiangzhou City about Miss Su Er's death of her fiancΓ© again spread far and wide, and it spread in half a day, and even some inexplicably angry people ran to the door of Su's house to splash feces and graffiti, saying that Miss Su Er was a broom star, and whoever saw it was unlucky, and some people even shouted to pull Miss Su Er to Shentang.

The porter of Su Mansion was awakened by the noise outside the door, and as soon as he opened the door, he was hit in the face by a rotten egg, and before he could scold angrily, he looked up, and a large number of people gathered around the door of Su Mansion.

The porter was startled, and quickly closed the door and went in to report to the master. Master Su hadn't woken up yet, and after yesterday's events, he was in a depressed mood, so he scolded the porter hard before listening to his report.

When he heard about the situation at the door, Master Su was furious, gathered all the family members, opened the main door, and he led the way out: "This official is a weaver in Jiangzhou, and he will do his best for the emperor. You people, you dare to besiege the official mansion without asking any questions, can you turn it around?

Sue you, this official is sent by the emperor, you hit this official is to slap the emperor's face, this is a big crime of raiding the family and exterminating the clan, I think which of you dares to touch the official hair. ”

Master Su angrily walked towards the onlookers, these people were already a rabble, and when they saw someone taking the lead, they followed and coaxed, Master Su took out his official authority, moved out of the emperor, and then set up a big crime of raiding the family and exterminating the clan, and everyone was frightened.

Master Su took a step forward, they took two steps back, two steps back and four steps back, Master Su raised his stick and rushed forward, the group dispersed in a hurry, and no one dared to make trouble anymore.
