Liu Ya went to the study again under the leadership of Li Ying, and after telling her plan, everyone was silent for a long time.

In the end, Li Ying opened her mouth and asked, "What if that Master Cao doesn't believe you?" ”

"Take a gamble, he asked me to take you over, why don't you want to gamble?"

Liu Ya frowned, she couldn't say anything about the secret guard.

As for whether it will be discovered by the mayor's family and the Chen family in the future, Liu Ya does not dare to guarantee it, but smart people will appropriately reserve privacy for each other.

"You might as well give it a try." Chen Gongzi was the first to speak.

The mayor stroked his beard and nodded, obviously agreeing, the Li family brothers had no right to speak, and just looked at Li Ying worriedly.

Seeing this, Li Ying had to say to Liu Ya: "Then you have to be careful, if Master Cao wants to attack you, don't worry so much, just come to me, it's a big deal to fight against him." ”

Hearing this, Liu Ya chuckled, and rushed to Li Ying's sincere desire to protect her, this friend is also worth intersecting, how could she let Li Ying go into danger for her own safety.

"You have taken this bag of rice medicine, don't talk about morality with that kind of person, take him to protect our own family and eliminate harm for the people."

Liu Ya handed Li Ying a packet of homemade rice medicine and asked her to hold it for self-defense.

"Sure enough, it's my good sister, and I have the same heart!"

Li Ying accepted it without pretentiousness, and did not reject this kind of behavior, it is her ability to win when she really fights, not to mention that she is a little woman, what kind of gentleman's style do you pay attention to?

Liu Ya didn't delay any longer, and was sent out through the back door by the Li family.

When she came, Liu Ya deliberately walked through the back door, in order to confuse Master Cao's people, after all, she was a peasant girl, and it was more in line with her identity to come to the mayor's house and go through the back door, right?

Along the way, Liu Ya kept looking back, as if she was afraid of being discovered, and went around in a circle before returning to the place where she was kidnapped before.

After waiting for a cup of tea, Master Cao came back from outside.

Seeing that Liu Ya was anxious, she just walked around the hall in circles, without looking around, and was even more sure that she could be pinched.

"You're back, I've already lied to Li Ying, saying that Qi Jianfeng had an accident in the county seat, and she will sneak out when she waits for dinner and go to the county seat alone."

"Don't kill my family, I beg you to do it and let my family go."

Liu Ya secretly pinched her arm, tears of pain swirled, biting her lip and not daring to cry, and timidly trying to dodge, it looked so harmless.

Master Cao stared at Liu Ya for a while, and when he saw that she showed no signs of lying, he asked, "Why don't you bring Li Ying out directly?" You should know what happened to me! ”

Liu Ya trembled cooperatively, and said in a trembling voice: "The town mayor's house is a distinguished guest, and Li Ying has been detained at home by her mother for the past few days and is not allowed to come out, so she said that she would run out secretly." Really, I didn't lie to you. ”

Master Cao knew about this, so he heard Liu Ya say it without concealment, and he also believed it.

Including what is there in the mayor's house, Master Cao has also inquired, otherwise he would have found a way to go in and arrest people.

It's just that in today's situation, the people under his hands should not be damaged as much as possible.

"It's best if what you say is the truth, if there is half a falsehood, I will kill you with a knife!" Master Cao threatened again.

Liu Ya shrunk her neck and said in fear: "I didn't lie to you, I really didn't." ”

"Wait in the house, and when the time comes, come with me on the road to rob people." Master Cao left such a sentence, and then turned to leave.

Liu Ya sat on the ground as if she had collapsed, holding the bone flute in one hand and a poisoned embroidery needle in the other.

From an angle that others can't see, Liu Ya's eyes are full of fierceness, where is the half-point weakness and helplessness shown?

After Liu Ya left, the mayor asked his two sons to arrange things.

In order to behave no differently than usual, they still went out as before, and did not deliberately get in touch with the dart board.

But the mayor's family and the Qi family have been friends for several generations, and they are even more in-laws, so they naturally have their own contact information, which is a secret word that only direct descendants know, in case of emergency.

However, the mayor and Chen Gongzi were still sitting in the study talking, although there was a gap in seniority between the two, but they were talking more like a year-old friend, which was also one of the reasons why the second lady would marry the second master Li back then.

"The virtuous nephew came to Xiaoyang Town this time, is it for Liu Ya?" The mayor asked without politeness.

"I can't hide it from my uncle."

Hearing this, Chen Gongzi smiled lightly, and arched his hand to the mayor of the town and said: "It's not a secret, the younger generation came to visit her sister and nephew this time, but it is also the eldest aunt's trust." I think my uncle knows that the younger generation has a cousin missing......"

Chen Gongzi did not mention that Chen Ge Lao asked him to pay attention to Liu Ya's affairs, and only took private matters as an example, which would not make people suspicious.

That person's affairs, even if they talk about it behind closed doors at home, they must beware that the partition wall has ears, not to mention that the Li family has no official status.

The mayor was a little surprised and asked, "Could it be that Liu Ya is that child?" This age is similar, but as far as the old man knows, Liu Ya is not raised. ”

"Liu Ya is indeed not the cousin of the younger generation, but Liu Ya's family adopted a young girl, and the girl's original parents also adopted her, and the eldest aunt had such a suspicion when she saw the girl, so she let the younger generation come to investigate."

Chen Gongzi truthfully said that if the mayor helped to inquire, he could get results faster.

"I concealed it before, because I had encountered too many scams over the years, so my uncle told me to investigate secretly first, and asked my uncle to forgive me."

The mayor nodded thoughtfully, he knew about this matter, too many people who wanted to cling to the Chen family, I don't know how many girls of the same age were sent to want to blend into the Chen family.

Many of them are political enemies of the Chen family, so the Chen family has spent many manpower and material resources to investigate and collect evidence, but they still have not given up looking for their lost concubines.

It can be seen that the Chen family attaches great importance to family affection, and it also increases the value of the Chen family's children and grandchildren in disguise, even if it is a concubine.

"In this way, when this matter is over, I will send someone to assist the virtuous nephew in investigating this matter, and I will definitely find out clearly."

After the mayor promised, Chen Gongzi thanked him again.

After that, the two talked about Liu Ya, or Master Cao.

At this time, in the Zhenyuan Dart Bureau, Qi Dart Head was originally going to take the darts with the dart masters after preparing to worship the gods, but he received news that made him annoyed.

Swept to the courtyard with cold eyes, watching the brothers busy counting the darts to be escorted, after saying a few words to his henchmen, he stood at the door and shouted loudly: "Brothers, hurry in and worship God, and then go eat something, let's set off after a stick of incense, and hurry overnight tonight." ”

"Big brother, why did you rush overnight? Didn't we say we would go to the county seat for one night tonight? ”

The second master asked with a puzzled face.

Qi Darttou glanced at the honest second brother who only had brute strength, and then looked at the third brother who was nervously looking at his side, and resisted the urge to pull someone over and beat him.

"The employer asked us to take a detour to a few people, and gave us an extra five hundred taels of silver. If you don't want to make this money, then don't hurry, anyway, this dart still has to be delivered on the original day. ”

When the second master heard this, he hurriedly said: "I listen to the eldest brother, how can there be any silver that you don't earn, isn't that stupid." ”

The dart masters laughed loudly when they heard this, and they had to share some more than five hundred taels of silver, of course, they were all willing.

It's the side of the three masters, and they don't mean to move thoughtfully.

"Third brother, this time you go with the eldest brother and let the second brother stay and watch the house. Come here, go to the pillar of incense with the eldest brother. ”
