Chapter 320: Dead Tree

Su Xiaoce probably didn't know what was going on here, and when he looked at Qing Dai, he still had a smile on his face, "Why is there no one here?" Where have you all gone, why are you two alone? ”

Qing Dai pursed her lips slightly, "It's okay, we also just cleaned up this compound, come with us, they are all behind, I guess the eldest brother is also very happy to see you." ”

Su Xiaoce paused, "Big brother? Who is it? ”

Qing Dai shouted obediently, and he had long ignored the question of when he had changed his name to Su Yanlan, Su Xiaoce didn't know the relationship between Qing Dai and Su Yanlan, so he was a little dizzy.

Qing Dai paused, "Ah, it's Brother Su, let's talk about this matter later, let's go first, it just so happens that everyone is together." ”

Xu Duheng had already been placed in his room, and the person sitting in the front hall happened to give birth to Su Yanlan and others.

Tao Tao strode outside with something, and when she saw the person, her eyes widened instantly: "Xiao Ce!" I read that right! ”

Xiao Ce smiled embarrassedly, "Taotao, you're not stupid, it's not me, who else." ”

Tao Tao looked her up and down, "Come into the house, Mr. Su is still inside." ”

Xiao Ce frowned, "Don't you have anyone to take care of him?" ”

Tao Tao couldn't hide it at all, "It's not that everyone is in a hurry, Childe is injured, and Mr. Su has just finished his work, so I'm going to hurry to change the water." ”

Xiao Ce glanced at Qing Dai, "What's wrong with you, no wonder I just looked at one or two of them with a decrepit face." ”

Xiao Ce was originally a straightforward person, and he couldn't hide anything, so he walked in straight ahead.

I happened to see Su Yanlan packing up the medicine box.

"Childe, I'm late."

Su Yanlan glanced at Xiao Ce lightly, Qing Dai looked at her brother's calm expression, and was a little suspicious, the worries she saw before were not made by this person.

But Qing Dai's gaze shifted downward, and she vaguely saw his slightly trembling fingertips, revealing everything.

"Well, help me clean up."

He rubbed his eyebrows, as if he was really tired.

Xiao Ce reached out and threw away the whip he was carrying.

Tao Tao, who came hurriedly from behind, glanced at it, "I'll help you put it away." ”

Xiao Ce looked at it with a smile and said, "That was given by the Lord of Yancheng, it is estimated that it is a good thing, you remember to help me put it better." ”

Su Yanlan's gaze shallow looked at the dark red whip that was faintly shining, and his eyes softened a little, "Rest." ”

Xiao Ce heard him speak, and suddenly froze.

Qing Dai looked around, and immediately said: "That, Xu Shiyi, let's go and see His Highness, and also, Taotao, you go and see if the medicine is decoctioned." ”

Tao Tao thought that she had just drunk the medicine, but when she saw Qing Dai squeezing her eyebrows, she instantly understood, and she immediately replied, "Ah, okay, I'll go." ”

Qing Dai left a space for the two of them to be alone, it seemed that everything was just right, and they were gradually back on track, and everything was progressing in the direction they expected.

Qing Dai remembered the tree in her yard and frowned slightly.

Although she didn't know what was going on, she still wanted to understand one thing, "Xu Shiyi, have you been to their house to see it?" ”

Xu Shiyi looked at Qingdai, "What?" ”

Qing Dai paused for a moment and said, "It's Lin Youyou's family." ”

Xu Shiyi nodded, "It's just a street away from our county government." ”

Qingdai seemed to think of something and walked towards the tree, "By the way, do you remember what the name of the last old county commander was?" ”

Xu Shiyi didn't know why Qing Dai suddenly asked such a question, but he still answered 1510, "The old county order died that year, and it was also the end of his life, it seems that his surname is Zhang, and his single name is a definite word." ”

Qing Dai was stunned in place in an instant, as if everything had come to this point and all of them were connected into a line, no wonder, no wonder.

"So that's the case, and there is such a coincidence."

"Is this county order from a teacher?"

Xu Shiyi glanced at Qing Dai, "Madam, you have also read the county chronicles, this old county magistrate can be regarded as a legendary example." ”

Qing Dai confirmed her suspicions, and then looked at the tree in the yard, where she found some slightly blackened patches at the root of the tree, which were traces of carbonization that had been burned.

Zhang Qu, what kind of person is he......

Qing Dai didn't know what she was thinking, and after hesitating, she slowly spoke: "Okay." ”

Xu Shiyi glanced at Qing Dai, who was in a trance, and said, "Madame, is there anything else?" ”

Qing Dai shook her head, "Not for the time being, you can go and get busy with your first." ”

Qing Dai's heart was mixed at the moment, and all her emotions were twisted into a rope, which was wrapped around her heart like this, and all her emotions poured into the tree.

Perhaps the real root cause is here, not to mention the cycle of cause and effect, where everything seems to be predestined, one link after another, and because of the constant changes in it, many things begin to gradually go off the rails.

Qing Dai couldn't help but sigh when she thought of this, just as she touched the carbonized place slightly, a white light rushed into Qing Dai's mind.

Zhang did have a miserable white face, and was gently supported by the woman who thought he was masked.

"Childe, be careful, your injuries are not healed yet."

Zhang Qu coughed a few times, but without hesitation, he continued to lower his head and began to write constantly.

"People are already dead, how can they say that this girl killed her!"

"Unconscious!"

The masked woman paused, "Childe doesn't have to be angry, I think this matter is okay like this, Youyou is a good child, but his fate is not good, it's a pity." ”

Zhang Qu seemed to be very unable to hear these words, and turned to look at her, "Miss Qiu, I thank you for your treatment, but please don't interfere too much in my affairs for irrelevant matters." ”

The masked woman glanced at Zhang Qu with some anger, turned around and said, "I'll go and decoct the medicine for my son." ”

Zhang Qu frowned and glanced at the bookcase in his hand, there were still a few crooked words written on the pure white rice paper, and only when he saw it clearly did he know that it was Zhang Qu's name.

Zhang was a little stunned, gently stretched out his hand and rubbed that place, he didn't know what he was thinking, he looked at it from a distance, and then directly got up without caring about anything and walked outside.

It was a broken tree, crooked outside the door of Youyou's house, because it was an arson case, so the nature of this matter was also bad, the government directly managed, and all the useless things were cleaned up.

Only the half-dead tree remained, and it was so black that it was no longer possible to see its original color.

Qing Dai frowned, only to see Zhang Qu pause, and began to dig the soil frantically.
