Heather knew her father's knot over the years.

He smiled and put his arm on his father's shoulder: "Let's go back and tell my mother the good news earlier!" ”

"Let's go back from Chunxi Building with a table and a seat," Shi Gang, who was full of joy, grabbed him, "Call your sister and your brother-in-law again, and the family will be happy." ”

"Good!" Heather responded with a grin.

Not long after, Shi Jinxiu received the news from Qingshi Lane, and after being happy for Shi Nan and Xu Li, she changed her clothes and prepared to go out.

I didn't expect Yu Wenyan to come back.

"Why are you back?" Shi Jinxiu is wonderful.

Because she knew that Yu Wenyan was not a person who liked to run home at will on weekdays.

"My father-in-law told me to go to dinner, and I thought it would be better to come back and change my clothes." As soon as he thought of the embarrassment he had spent shopping with Shi Jinxiu last time, he didn't want to go out in this unicorn costume anymore.

"In the future, you can also put a few regular clothes in the Zhenfu Division! Save yourself from running back and forth. Hearing this, Shi Jinxiu hurriedly turned back to the house to help Yu Wenyan change his clothes, and then the husband and wife took a car to Qingshi Lane together, and got off in front of the Surabaya Bookstore in Shigang.

Just as they were about to enter the house, an old woman who looked like a beggar came out of nowhere, and without saying a word, she knelt on the ground holding Shi Jinxiu's calves: "Miss Shi, please do well, save my second child!" ”

Shi Jinxiu was taken aback.

Yu Wenyan also raised his knife hand, and he was about to slash at the old woman.

"Aunt Xu?" Fortunately, Shi Jinxiu recognized her in time and took Yu Wenyan's hand.

"It's me! It's me! Xu Li's mother wiped away her tears and brushed the messy hair on her head like a chicken nest, "I can be regarded as looking for you!" Hurry up and find a way to save my second child, it's too late, he's going to call someone to sink into the pond! ”

Sinking pond?!

Shi Jinxiu's face changed in an instant.

Generally, only if you do something that violates morals and morals will you be sunk by the villagers.

Shi Jinxiu exchanged a look with Yu Wenyan: "What did he do to be sunk in the pond?" ”

He ...... They said...... The second eldest of my family committed adultery with the new daughter-in-law of the Wang family next door," Xu Li's mother shrank away, but she immediately retorted, "This is all said by the people in the village, the second child of our family is a scholar, and he will never do such a thing!" ”

Adultery?!

"Sister, why haven't you and your brother-in-law entered the house yet?" Looking at Shi Jinxiu and Yu Wenyan standing outside the bookstore, Shi Nan asked.

"Something happened to Xu Li." Shi Jinxiu said to him.

Shi Nan rushed out of the door: "What happened to him?" ”

"I don't know the specifics yet, and it may be troublesome." Shi Jinxiu said very calmly, "Go and tell my father, I'm going to Xujia Village." ”

"Are you going with me?" But Shi Jinxiu asked Yu Wenyan about this.

"Of course I'm going, let you go alone, how can I rest assured?" Yu Wenyan didn't have any extra words, just grabbed her and got into the carriage again.

"Wait for me! I'll go too! Shi Nan explained to the guys in the bookstore, and also climbed into Shi Jinxiu's carriage.

Next to the carriage was a dirty Aunt Xu.

"Come up too!" Although Shi Jinxiu didn't have a good impression of her, it could be seen that she was really worried about Xu Li.

The lady also knew that her clothes were dirty, so she carefully climbed on the wheel and sat down, and did not dare to go into the carriage.

The coachman waved his whip and let the carriage run quickly.

"What day did Xu Li happen?" On the way, Shi Jinxiu asked about Aunt Xu.

Aunt Xu replied in a hurry: "Three days ago." ”

"Three days ago? Then why did you only find it today? Heather almost jumped when she heard this.

"I'm here, I've been here a long time ago!" Aunt Xu had a sad face, "I found the house where you lived the day before yesterday, only to find that you don't live there anymore, I inquired with the neighbors for a day, only to know that you moved to the bluestone lane in the east of the city, and I inquired all the way to the ......."

Hearing this, Shi Jinxiu couldn't help frowning.

"Didn't the people who lived in the house we lived in tell you we moved here?" Even Heather was skeptical.

"I didn't ...... No, ......," Aunt Xu said in a trembling voice, "They thought I was asking for food, and beat me out with a stick, and now my arm still hurts!" It was beaten by them. ”

"Sister, uncle, they're too hateful! Even if you really want food, you can't drive it away like this! "Heather is very angry.

"This can only prove that Uncle and they are doing well during this time, and they have almost forgotten their embarrassed appearance when they first came to the capital." Shi Jinxiu smiled and was relieved.

Shi Nan thought about it, isn't it, his uncle and aunt haven't been to Bluestone Lane for a long time, and they haven't seen the demon king of his family for a long time.

Xujia Village was not very close, and even if the coachman was as fast as he could, it took them almost two hours to arrive.

As soon as she got out of the car, Aunt Xu took their group to the ancestral hall of the Xu family: "My second child is locked up here by them!" ”

But as soon as they arrived at the door of the ancestral hall, they were stopped: "Xu Wang, why are you here again?" It's all said, the patriarch doesn't speak, and no one is allowed to go in to see your son! ”

"Ergouzi and his father, you can keep your eyes open, this is the big official I asked for from Beijing!" Although Aunt Xu had never seen Yu Wenyan, his all-round style made Aunt Xu know that he was a big official at a glance.

"Great Official?" The doorkeeper glared, "Even if the emperor is found, he can't open the door!" ”

Hearing this, Shi Nan rushed forward, but fortunately, Shi Jinxiu stopped him in time, so that he did not have a conflict with others.

"This eldest brother, we are all friends of Xu Li in the capital, and we came here on purpose," Shi Jinxiu quietly stuffed a few pieces of broken silver into the man's hand, "You are accommodating, let's go in and take a look!" ”

The man looked at the extra piece of silver in his hand, and his expression changed.

But he still returned the silver to Shi Jinxiu: "It's not that I don't want to let you in, it's just that the key to enter the ancestral hall is hanging on the patriarch!" I can't help it. ”

Hearing this, Shi Jinxiu asked more: "When was Xu Li imprisoned?" ”

"It was three days ago!" Aunt Xu hurriedly said, "A group of people suddenly broke into our house and tied up my second child!" ”

"Only tied him up? What about the daughter-in-law next door? "Shi Jinxiu is wonderful.

"I don't know, after they tied up our family's second child, I went to Beijing!" Aunt Xu lowered her eyes.

"And what about your patriarch?" Shi Jinxiu asked the doorkeeper.

The doorkeeper was vague: "I don't know, probably in whose house!" ”

"Since this person doesn't have a key, it's not interesting to spend it in front of this Xu family ancestral hall." Yu Wenyan, who hadn't spoken much along the way, said suddenly.

Shi Jinxiu looked at him a little stunned, but found that he glanced at him.
