Chen took the money and left happily.

As for Xu Lan, she didn't care at all.

People spent a lot of money to marry her, the purpose of which was to buy a clean and good-looking young woman and give birth to a big fat boy for the owner.

Left and right will not lose Xu Lan to eat and drink.

Chen felt that this was Xu Lan's blessing.

It's better to be a young grandmother than to go out and show up as a doctor.

What's more, Chen got a lot of "bride price" this time, and she now has a bulging purse, and she feels like she has the wind when she walks. The Chen family has been poor all their lives, and now it is the first time they have such money in their pockets.

Her whole body was a little fluttering, and she couldn't wait to buy back all the good things on the street.

The first thing Chen did was to go to the restaurant that Xu Lan had stopped her from entering.

The child in the restaurant saw that she was dressed shabbyly, and before she could say anything, Chen shined the silver in her hand at him.

"Oh, you're a distinguished guest, please inside."

Looking at the other party's small face and flattering appearance, Chen couldn't help but raise his chin high.

This feeling of being valued and superior made her feel fluttering.

"I want crispy tenderloin, salt-baked chicken, hibiscus cake, wine-stuffed tofu and roast suckling pig...... "Chan crackled and nodded a lot.

"How many are you, guest officer?"

"I'm the only one."

Chen's words surprised Xiao Er slightly.

This lady ordered so many dishes by herself that she couldn't finish them at all.

Looking at her dress, she doesn't look like a rich person, how can she shoot so outstandingly.

Instead of sitting on the second floor, Chan deliberately sat on the first floor where the gate entered.

That way, everyone can see her as soon as they enter the door.

Chen didn't wait for the food to be served and began to eat and drink.

She only ate one bite of many dishes and thought it was not delicious, but she never touched it again.

The people who entered the restaurant looked at her as if they were reading a joke, and the passers-by outside the restaurant would also take a few curious glances at this old lady who was eating and drinking.

By the time Chen finished eating, most of the dishes on the table had not been touched.

"Guest officer, the rest of the dishes ......" Xiao Er was worried, for fear that she would have to retreat, and it would not look good when the time came.

Who knew that Chen waved his hand and said indifferently: "Don't do it." ”

After eating this meal, there were more than one or two taels of silver, and the Chen family directly gave Xiao Er and two taels of silver, so that he didn't have to look for it.

After eating and drinking, Chen went to the clothing store to buy a new dress.

She chose a rose-red embroidered gold peony, with shoes, handkerchiefs, head flowers, etc., and spent about a tael of silver.

Chen felt satisfied, and when he thought of his family's house, he suddenly felt that he was not worthy of his own outfit.

She wanted to buy more luxury items to decorate her home.

But Chen didn't know that her actions had attracted some splashy attention.

The men followed behind Chen.

While Chen wasn't paying attention, those splashes approached her one after the other. The person in front of him collided directly, and Chen just wanted to scold, but suddenly felt that the clothes behind him were being torn off.

Her purse was stolen like that.

"You thieves, stop for the old lady!" Chen immediately chased after him.

But the other party relied on his youth and was extremely familiar with the terrain, how could Chen's old legs catch up with them. Unexpectedly, the white and fat old woman ran so fast that after a while, she grabbed the clothes of one of them.

"You thief who kills a thousand knives, my mother will kill you."

Chen was so angry that he was about to explode, and he knocked the other party to the ground with a slap.

She snatched her purse back and stuffed it into her inner clothes.

"Dead old woman, get out of here!" The thief who was caught by the Chen family was thin and small, and he was pressed to the ground by the big fat man of the Chen family, and he couldn't move at all.

Chen slapped him in a series of ways, making the little thief scream.

The thief's accomplice couldn't stand it anymore, and immediately stepped forward and pulled Chen by the hair and pulled her back, trying to save his companion.

All of a sudden, the three of them were in a mess.

Soon, the catchers in the county town immediately rushed over.

"What for! Part! The person at the head turned out to be Brother Xu.

"You thief steals my money!" Chen said quickly, "In broad daylight, you actually robbed me, and you didn't look at who you robbed." ”

"Phew, where did I rob you? What did I rob you? The little thief said, leaning around his neck.

He was not afraid of Chan at all.

Anyway, the money bag was snatched back by her.

Seeing the two of them like this, Brother Xu said coldly: "Okay, don't pretend, you are also a habitual offender, go back to the cell with me and squat for a few days." He grabbed the thief by the collar and lifted him up.

Brother Xu saw that Chen was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember who she was for a while, so he casually told her to hurry home.

Who knew that Chen Ruoran happened to be watching the excitement in the crowd.

Seeing this scene, he immediately walked up to Brother Xu and muttered a few times.

"You can't let this woman go, she is Xu Lan's grandmother of the dead girl."

"What?" Brother Xu turned his head to look at the Chen family, who had already walked away, "This woman is so fat and ugly, she doesn't look like Xu Lan at all." ”

"I'm from the same village as her, absolutely yes." Chen Ruolan said quickly, "Finally, she bumped into your hand, but you can't let her run away!" Deduct it first, and I will go to their house in a few days and ask Xu Lan to pay the money before releasing them. ”

"Hmph, let her beg me herself." Brother Xu snorted coldly, "Xu Lan is a good thing for me!" ”

This time, I must take care of her.

While speaking, Brother Xu's people arrested Chen again.

Chen kept shouting grievances.

But she is a country woman, who will pay attention to her.

Brother Xu felt annoyed, so he asked her to plug her mouth with a handkerchief, and directly tied her with a hemp rope and locked her in the cell.

In this way, Xu Lan was locked up in the firewood room, and Chen was also locked up in the yamen's cell.

On the other side, seeing that the two had not returned for a long time, the Zhang family was so anxious that they couldn't stop looking at the door before it was dark, and waited for a long time at the entrance of the village.

It was already completely dark.

Zhang was so anxious that he was restless, and kept urging Xu Dahai to find someone.

"How do I find it when it's dark?" Xu Dahai said disapprerovingly, "How many times have Lan girls been to the county seat, my mother is also a shrewd person, what are you worried about when they just went to the county seat?" ”

"But why haven't they come back yet?"

Zhang couldn't help but start thinking about it.

For a while, she thought that Xu Lan had an accident in the county town, and for a while she thought about what if the ox cart overturned when the two of them came back and overwhelmed them?

Thinking about it, Zhang's became more and more flustered, and his eyes gradually turned red.

Seeing her like this, Xu Dahai became impatient.
