Chapter 144: Human Nature Can't Be Taken for Granted

Lin Da walked cautiously, for fear of making some movement to attract the thugs of the Guo family, but Lin Er behind him stepped on the wooden barrel, and the wooden barrel rolled around on the ground, and the gourd scoop inside also made a movement......

"If you want to die, can't you be quiet?" Lin Da slapped Lin Er's head, and after scolding in a low voice, he hurriedly continued to walk.

The Guo family's mansion is magnificent, Lin Da looked at the bricks and stones on the ground are paved with large pieces of marble, and he doesn't feel embarrassed in his heart, they have also climbed over the walls of the mansions of those big officials in Kyoto City, and not every family has this Guo family's luxury.

After going around for a long time, Lin Da was also tired, seeing that it was almost dawn, he had to hurry away, and he heard a movement in the courtyard behind him, although it was very small and almost inaudible, but he was very close, and when he pushed the door, the sound was clearer.

Xi Hongdou, who heard the sound of the door inside, hurriedly stopped, it stands to reason that this time should be the time when people sleep the deepest, she knocked all night and no one found out, and it didn't make sense who was alarmed at this time.

Lin Da saw that he was silent when he entered the door, and wondered if he had heard it wrong?

"Big brother, let's go quickly, it is estimated that there are people on the street who have started to move, and they can't be seen!" Lin Er said in a low voice, the common people are busy before dawn in order to make a living, and if they don't leave now, it will be too dazzling to climb over the wall for a while.

Lin Da didn't care about the suspicion, turned his head and left, Xi Hongdou listened to the footsteps outside getting farther and farther away until he disappeared, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

Rue Xiang asked, "Young grandmother, it's been a night, can it work?" "The window is sealed from the outside, and you can't push it inside.

Xi Hongdou said: "It's okay, just work harder." She smashed all night, and she was tired, and she had to be vigilant to be discovered all the time, and the cold sweat was almost soaking her clothes this night.

Then smashed a few more times, another nail fell down on the window, Xi Hongdou was overjoyed, there were five planks in total, it was enough for her to smash three, the window itself was not too strong, and now that the plank outside had broken through, she was good to start.

smashed the window a few times, and there happened to be a gap enough for people to get out, so Xi Hongdou hurriedly beckoned Rue Xiang to hurry up. She got out first, Rue Xiang pushed it, and then when Rue Xiang came out, she pulled people out, and finally took house arrest.

"Let's go!" Xi Hongdou ran away with Ruexiang, she didn't know what was going on, she didn't react until she ran to the door, she couldn't follow the ordinary road.

"Wait a minute, let's go over the wall!" Xi Hongdou said, she doesn't know what terrain is outside the courtyard gate, in case she encounters people, the two women can't beat them, and the noise will definitely attract more people.

The wall of the Guo family is not short, Rue Xiang looked at the high wall and made a difficulty, and whispered: "Young grandma, it is so high, there are no ladders and feet, we can't go up!" ”

Xi Hongdou is also bad, he can't be stuck in this step and it's over, fortunately, behind the firewood room is the kitchen, Xi Hongdou found a few pieces of wood for explanation, inserted them directly into the crack of the wall, and then stepped on the wall by himself, and Rue Xiang quickly followed.

Xi Hongdou looked at the street outside, and felt that his luck was not bad, and he was just about to jump down with Ruxiang, when someone came to the courtyard gate, and saw that the two of them were on the wall to escape, so he hurriedly shouted for someone.

"Oh no, we've got to hurry!" Xi Hongdou hurriedly jumped down as he spoke, although Rue Xiang was still afraid of heights, but she couldn't take care of it at this time, so she could only grit her teeth and jump down.

The people of the Guo family were alarmed, Xi Hongdou pulled Rue Xiang and ran directly in the direction of the Yamen, Guo Linjiang heard that the people had run away, so he hurriedly asked people to chase and intercept them, and specially instructed people to intercept them on the way to the Yamen, so that Xi Hongdou would definitely be robbed back halfway.

Xi Hongdou ran with Rue Xiang, and just came out of the back door of the Guo family, and saw that there were Guo family's family members looking for people on the road, so this road could not be walked.

There were people's homes on the street, so she hurriedly went around a street, and when she saw that no one was chasing her, she knocked on the door directly, wanting to hide until dawn in the house.

It was a lady who opened the door, and she was not happy to be knocked on the door in the middle of the night, but after seeing Xi Hongdou, she said, "Who are you?" What are you going to do when you don't sleep in the middle of the night? ”

Xi Hongdou said: "Auntie, can you take me in until dawn first?" I was chased by bad people...... but before she finished speaking, the eldest lady said: "I can't accept you if I am chased by bad people!" After speaking, she closed the door directly, Xi Hongdou hid quickly, otherwise the door would have slapped her in the face.

Rue Xiang was anxious: "Why is she like this!" "There is no sympathy at all.

"Try another one, helping is love, not helping is duty." Xi Hongdou didn't say anything, and directly changed the door to knock on the door.

This time it was a young sister-in-law who opened the door, and she was also impatient, this time Xi Hongdou also learned to be smart, and directly took out the silver ticket on her body and said: "We want to find a place to live, is this money enough?" She had a small amount of silver tickets on her, and the sister-in-law saw that she was rich and two women, so she was not afraid of anything, and let people enter the door directly.

There is a small couple living in the courtyard, and the vacant room next to them will directly let them live first, Xi Hongdou looked at the sky, and it was not long before dawn.

Rue Xiang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "We'll be able to go back when it's dawn." ”

"You can't just swagger back, they dare to kidnap people on the street, and if they run into it, it's easier to kidnap them again." Xi Hongdou said: "If you are tired, sleep for a while, I will listen to the movement." ”

Rue Xiang shook her head, this time something happened, Xi Hongdou's dignified young grandmother still has to take care of her everywhere, and she can't really think of herself as a daughter.

"I'm not tired, young grandma sleeps, I'll keep watch." Rue said.

Xi Hongdou couldn't sleep either, so he just waited for dawn to speak.

The two of them swayed for a long time and finally arrived at dawn, the young couple got up early to cook, and as soon as they smelled the rice, Xi Hongdou went out of the room.

"Do you want to use some? There are only these coarse tea and light rice at home......" The sister-in-law asked, Xi Hongdou gave a lot of money yesterday, and they didn't lose a meal.

Xi Hongdou nodded, sat down first, and then took out a silver ticket and said: "Trouble sister-in-law to help me deliver a letter, go to the yamen, find a random official, just say that Xi Hongdou is at your house, and someone will come to pick me up." ”

When the sister-in-law heard that it was from the Yamen, she quickly pushed the money back, and then quickly put the one she received yesterday on the table: "I didn't know yesterday, I want to know, I don't dare to accept it!" "The people of the Yamen can't afford to be messed with by the common people, and she also received other people's silver tickets, will she turn over the old accounts in the future?

Xi Hongdou pushed the silver ticket back and said, "Sister-in-law is okay with it, just help me send a letter, I thank you." "It's not a question of money now, and it's what she wants to give, and it's not that people are blackmailing her.

The sister-in-law was a little timid, looked at her husband next to her, and the husband thought about it and said, "Then I'll send the letter, and I'll be back in a while." As he spoke, he cautiously pushed the door, and then ran to the yamen.

The sister-in-law didn't dare to ask anything, Xi Hongdou and Rue Xiang used some rice first, yesterday Xi Hongdou tossed all night, and was already hungry and couldn't stand it, after drinking two bowls of porridge at this time, the people from the yamen finally came.

Xiao Zhi didn't sleep all night, and the people of the yamen were also looking for people in the city, and when the Guo family was looking for people everywhere at night, he guessed that Xi Hongdou might have run away, and then asked the yamen to hunt around to find people, but he didn't find anything, so he got the news of Xi Hongdou and hurried over.

"Red Bean, are you alright? The people of the Guo family didn't do anything to you, did they? Xiao Zhi asked very nervously, seeing that Xi Hongdou still had abrasions on his hands, he said worriedly: "Did they torture you?" "I hate the Guo family to the end in my heart.

Xi Hongdou shook his head: "It's useless, it's just locked up, my abrasion was caused when the window was broken." ”

Xiao Zhi saw that this place was not a place to talk, so he left with Xi Hongdou first, this time several catchers followed, and the Guo family definitely didn't dare to come to the street to rob people again.

On the carriage, Xi Hongdou told everything that had happened since yesterday, and Xiao Zhi's face became darker and darker the more he listened, and he got up directly to get out of the carriage.

"You're back!" Xi Hongdou pulled people back, he knew what Xiao Zhi was going to do.

"The Guo family has hurt you like this, I can't bear it!" Xiao Zhi said that he didn't want to put up with it when the Guo family set fire to Xi Hongdou's shop before, and now the Guo family has repeatedly harmed Xi Hongdou, how can he bear it?

Xi Hongdou hurriedly said: "Now is not the time to be rash, I don't have anything to do in the end, if you go to Guo Linjiang to settle accounts at this time, you will really fall for someone else's plan!" "If Xiao Zhi makes a move, the people of Lihong County will have to live back to their previous days in the future, and there is no hope at all! She knew that Xiao Zhi's temperament was not a person who could bear it at all, and it was already hard work to break out now, but it was not the time yet.

"Bear with me, aren't you already arranged, just wait, I promise not to go out these days, nothing will happen again!" Xi Hongdou said.

Xiao Zhi gritted his teeth, and finally sat back, the prince's march was about to arrive, and the Guo family would not be able to jump for a few days.

When I got home, Xi Hongdou took a bath first, and then slept for a day, and Sister-in-law Liu came to ask at noon, and I heard that I was still a little worried when I found it.

In the afternoon, Xi Hongdou woke up, and Rue Xiangna slept enough, and then said, "The people who returned to the Hui side are here." ”

"When?" Xi Hongdou hurriedly changed his clothes, and after waiting for several days, Daguli finally arrived.

Rue Xiang said: "Just arrived, the young master directly arranged people to the post house. ”

"Then I'll take a look." Xi Hongdou said that he was going to find someone.

Rue Xiang hurriedly stopped: "Don't, the young master said, it's better for the young grandmother not to go out these days, it's safe!" "This time she was scared, if she wasn't with Xi Hongdou, she didn't know what to do, and now she can't let Xi Hongdou go out!
