214 Kochifu
Distinguished guest, or from Anding County, who will it be?
Su Yu pondered for a while, and directly excluded Changzhi County, the subordinate officials of the prefect of Changzhi County cannot be regarded as distinguished guests, besides, Anding County has been dilapidated like that, how can there be any big people?
Su Yu had a flash of inspiration in his mind, isn't it Yuan Huan?
That Bai Shi'an treated him with great courtesy, and he couldn't wait to provide for it, he should be counted, Su Yu pursed her lips, she said to Xiao Er: "I still have something to do, I want to go out, keep the house for me, and return people back at night, by the way, remember to help me feed the donkey, give me more grass, and the money will be recorded in my account." ”
Xiao Er smiled and said, "Okay." "There is a donkey, and I am not afraid of her running.
After Su Yu finished speaking, she turned around and went back to the rented house, the package of her clothes was carried on her body, and then she went out, the money was naturally brought with her, if it was placed in the inn, who would it be if she lost it?
She went out, found a hidden place to change into women's clothes, wiped the thick eyebrows and fake moles on her face with ice water, and a white little face was revealed.
The door of the prefect's house was tightly closed, Su Yu looked at the courtyard of the high gate, a little timid for a while, after a while, she gritted her teeth and walked over, she didn't dare to knock on the front door, just knocked lightly on the side, and after a while, the side door opened, revealing a smiling face, however, after seeing Su Yu, the smiling face sank suddenly.
It was a doorman who opened the door, and he looked impatient and said, "Go, go, this is not a place to ask for food, hurry up." ”
Su Yu said with a smile: "I'm not asking for food, little brother, I want to ask you something." ”
When the doorman heard this, he became even more impatient, he glared at Su Yu: "Do you know what kind of place this is, and you dare to inquire about the affairs of the master's family, and you are impatient?" His eyebrows furrowed.
Su Yu took out half a penny of silver and was about to hand it to the doorman, but after thinking about it, the maids of large families have more than two taels of money per month.
So she was ruthless, exchanged half a penny of silver for one or two silver, and quietly put it into the hands of the doorman, she said: "I heard that a distinguished guest from Anding County has arrived at the house. ”
The doorman touched the silver, it was indeed a lot, and secretly put the silver in his sleeve, and then a smile appeared on his face: "There is such a person." He lowered his voice and said, "That man is mysterious, he has only been here for half a day, and he left in a hurry." ”
Let's go?
Su Yu's face changed, and he smiled bitterly in his heart, and the two pieces of silver were floating again.
The doorman smiled and asked, "But there is something else to ask?" ”
Su Yu thought for a while and said, "I want to ask the little brother, do you know that there are people who have fled from Anding County in this state capital." ”
The doorman was about to speak, but at this moment, the prefect's sedan chair came back, and the doorman pushed Su Yu aside in a little hurry, and said secretly: "The lord is back, go quickly." "The prefect hates it when someone asks for news, oops, it's really unlucky, just a few words of gossip, and then bumped into the prefect, this is really ......
The doorman regretted it very much.
Su Yu couldn't retreat, and was seen by the prefect who came out of the curtain, and when the prefect saw Su Zhu standing in front of him, his face sank a little, he glanced at the guard on his side, and the guard immediately understood what the prefect meant, he bowed his head and answered, and walked towards Su Yu.
Since the Kochifu lost his son, everyone feels suspicious, but anyone who lingers at his door, unless it is a relative, six relatives, or acquaintances, all suspicious people outside of this are arrested and interrogated regardless of the reason, if they are innocent, they will be released, if they are not innocent, then wait for the jail.
That's why the front of the prefect's house is so deserted.
The guard walked towards Su Yu, Su Yu didn't move, if she ran away at this time, it would be called a weak heart, not to mention, she may not be able to outrun this guard.
Kochifu didn't look at this side again, raised his feet and walked towards the house, at this time, the doorman had opened the main door, Kochifu walked to the threshold, but suddenly stopped, he turned his head to look at Su Yu, this person seemed to be a little familiar, as if he had seen it before.
He remembered that in the case of Song'er's abduction, the little girl in front of him was a meritorious person, a person from Anding County!
Kochifu said in a loud voice: "Slow, bring her over." ”
When Su Yu heard this, she used the person to take it, she walked over with the package, she bowed her head and blessed her body, and greeted the prefect: "My lord." ”
Kochifu asked her gently: "But is there something difficult?" "The Kochi Mansion has always had clear grievances, and this one in front of him is a benefactor, although he gave silver at the beginning, but this kindness cannot be bought with silver.
Su Yu's voice trembled a little: "My lord, the villain heard that Anding County was occupied by bandits, but is it true?" ”
Kozhifu sighed and said, "This matter is true, but the imperial court already knows about it, so you can rest assured." "The matter that the imperial court will transfer troops over in a few days, the Kochi Mansion will naturally not tell Su Yu.
Su Yu raised her head, her eyes were slightly red, and she asked a little eagerly: "My lord, do you know that there are people from Anding County in this state capital." ”
Kochifu looked at her.
Su Yu choked up and said, "My family's whereabouts are unknown, so I want to ......"
Kochifu said softly: "I understand. After he finished speaking, he turned sideways to the guard and said, "I remember that there are a few families in Xiacheng who have fled, you can take her to ask." ”
The guard whispered, "Yes." "This man has a strong ability to do things, and the prefect has always trusted him.
When Su Yu heard this, she was surprised and delighted, she thanked the Gao Zhi Mansion again and again, and the Gao Zhi Mansion just smiled and entered the mansion.
Su Yu didn't think about appearing in the prefect's house with the posture of 'life-saving benefactor', that would only cause disgust, she came here mainly to see if Yuan Huan was there, if she was, then she was waiting outside the prefect's house, Yuan Huan would always come out one day, if he was not there, then she could only think of another idea.
Unexpectedly, Kochifu was such a good person and willing to help her, she was really grateful.
Guards
Endless.
The guards didn't say much, and after getting the order of the Kochi Mansion, they took Su Yu to Xiacheng District, which was a civilian area, the poorest place in the state capital, dirty and messy, and most of those thieves went out from here.
The people who fled from Anding County had no road guide and could not enter the state capital, but there were pregnant women in that group, so they found out their identities and let them in, I heard that the people who survived from Anding County were free of plague, otherwise, these people would have been killed before they entered the state capital.
The guards took Su Yu to the family where there was a pregnant woman, this family was old and young, more than a dozen people, I heard that even the son-in-law came with him, by the way, this family used to live in Anding County, and they must be able to know about Anding County.
The guard knocked on the door, and the family was still a little impatient when they opened the door, but when they saw the guard, they were so frightened that they dared to put on a face, and they wanted to kneel down and kowtow to their disrespect just now.
It's not going to come and arrest someone, is it?
The family broke out in a cold sweat of fright.
The guard said coldly: "There is someone in charge of your family, ask him to come and talk back." ”
Except for the one who opened the door, the rest of the family hid in the house, and when they heard the guard's words, they immediately pushed the son-in-law who was not related by blood out, and the son-in-law reluctantly walked out.
When Su Yu saw that person, she was taken aback, isn't this the third uncle?
Obviously, Third Uncle Su also saw Su Yu standing behind the guard, he saw Su Yu, his eyes widened extremely round, he pointed in the direction of Su Yu and said to the guard, "She, how could she be with you?" He originally wanted to ask Su Yu what bad things he had done to get caught, but it was a bit strange to ask like this, so he changed his statement.
The guard raised his eyebrows, turned to look at Su Yu, and said, "You know?" That's right, then I'll go back and hand it over. ”
Su Yu bowed his head and thanked, "Thank you." ”
The guard nodded, then turned around and left, leaving Su Yu behind.
The family was also relieved when they saw the guards leaving, and the person who opened the door said to Uncle Su angrily: "Since you know you, then this matter will be handed over to you, hurry up and send the person to me, our family doesn't want to raise another idler." "How much does it cost to open more mouths and more rations?
He snorted and went back to the house, at this time, only Su Yu and Third Uncle Su were left in the courtyard.
Su Yu opened his mouth first: "Third uncle, why are you here?" When did you come here? Grandma and uncle, are they okay? She asked a series of questions, but every time she asked, Uncle Su's face turned white.
Uncle Su said with a bitter face: "Your aunt is pregnant with a baby, we have been waiting for this baby for ten years, there was an accident in the village at that time, I was afraid that something would happen to your aunt, so I took your aunt to the county at that time, and then there was an accident in the county, and after the ground moved, your aunt's mother moved to the state capital, and I also followed." ”
After he finished speaking, he said helplessly: "Before leaving, I inquired about the news of Sujia Village, alas, it was all destroyed, and the village was burned, and those surviving villagers said ......."
Uncle Su's voice became more and more bitter: "Our family, you milk them, no one has ever encountered them...... "If you haven't encountered it, that is, you haven't escaped, that is, you are dead."
Su Yu guessed this before, but when she heard Third Uncle Su say it, her heart was tight, although she had no feelings for the old Su family, but after all, she was a blood relative, and she was always a little sad when she heard such a thing, not to mention, her mother, sister and uncle had no news.
By the way, there is Gao Le, I don't know what happened to him, Gao Ping is gone, Gao Le, this kid should be very sad.
Su Yu asked Third Uncle Su: "Uncle, do you know how my mother and them are?" ”
Third Uncle Su shook his head: "I don't know. ”
Su Yu felt a sense of loss in her heart.
Third Uncle Su looked at Su Yu, and suddenly remembered that Su Yu's own uncle used to be a fast catcher in the county office, so he turned his head and asked, "Second girl, do you remember that your uncle was a fast catcher in the county office, do you know that vinegar?" ”
Vinegar?
What does vinegar do?
Su Yu nodded quietly, only to see Third Uncle Su ask again, "Does your uncle's family have vinegar?" ”
Su Yu lowered his head and said: "I was abducted, I finally escaped, I don't know anything about the county, uncle, what is this vinegar, what's the use, what are you asking for?" "At the beginning, the Su family made a lot of moves when they sold vinegar, why didn't Uncle Su know about it?
During that time, Third Uncle Su was not in the county government, he was sent out by the Yue family and went to a neighboring county to change things, so he didn't know that Third Aunt Su was raising a baby at home, and he didn't know, if they knew, Third Uncle Su wouldn't have asked Su Yu like this.
