Di Renjie, who was far away at the border, didn't know the changes in Shendu at this time, and what pressed on his heart was the disappearance of Tang Zhun, the young owner of Xilin Villa, although Tang Yinran, the owner of the village, also said that Tang Zhun eloped with his stepmother, but Di Renjie still felt that there must be something strange about this matter!

At dusk, Tang Yinran prepared a dinner party for Di Renjie, because the young owner was missing, everyone seemed to be preoccupied, and everyone did not drink alcohol during the dinner, so the dinner ended quickly!

Di Renjie said to Tang Yinran: "Master Tang Zhuang, just now you said that someone saw Ling Lang and Mrs. Zun get into the carriage and leave Xilin Villa, can you invite him to come, Di Mou has some questions that he wants to ask him face-to-face?" ”

Tang Yinran saluted: "Okay! The adult sat down for a while, and the grass people ordered someone to call him over! ”

Soon, a subordinate led a servant-like person to Di Renjie, and the servant fell to his knees in front of Tang Yinran with a thud!

"Little Zhou An knocks to see the master!"

"Zhou An, this is Lord Qincha, when the prime minister Di Ge Lao, why don't you hurry up and meet your lord?" Tang Yinran said compared to Di Renjie!

Zhou An was stunned for a moment, and then kowtowed: "Villain Zhou An, kowtow to the eldest master!" ”

Tang Yinran couldn't help but show trepidation when he heard Zhou An call Di Renjie the eldest lord, this Zhou An didn't mean to, the biggest official he had ever seen when he was so old was the county lord, so he thought that this eldest lord was the title of the big official!

Tang Yinran hurriedly said: "Zhou An, don't be rude, this is Lord Qincha, who is 108,000 miles bigger than your county master!" ”

When Zhou An heard this, he was immediately panicked, but he didn't know what to call it, so he couldn't stop kowtowing to Di Renjie!

Di Renjie twisted his hair and smiled: "Okay, okay, Zhou An, you get up and speak, whether it is the county master or the Qincha, they are all the parents and officials of the people, what does it matter how to call them?" Zhou An, don't be afraid, I just want to ask you a few questions! ”

Zhou An slowly stood up, bowed respectfully in front of Di Renjie, and said, "Master, if you have anything you want to ask, just ask, the little one must know everything!" ”

Tang Yinran scolded angrily: "Still a big man? Tell you......"

Di Renjie hurriedly stopped Tang Yinran and said: "Don't reprimand Tang Zhuang master, the big lord is the big lord, Di Mou has been a county magistrate for many years at the beginning of his career, and he is called the big lord, and he feels a little kind!" ”

Tang Yinran heard Di Renjie say this, and he was also relieved

After conciling, Di Renjie continued: "Zhou An, what are you doing in this Xilin Villa? ”

Zhou An bowed down and said: "Back to the eldest master, the little one is a rough man, and he can't do anything else, but he has the strength to do the miscellaneous work of the house in this village, and he usually does some chores to carry water and chop wood!" ”

Di Renjie looked Zhou An up and down, and said approvingly: "Hmm! Look at this figure is indeed a bit of strength! Okay, Zhou An, the owner of the Tang village said that you saw the young owner and the wife of the owner get into the carriage together and leave Xilin Villa? ”

Zhou An nodded and said, "Yes, the villain did see it with his own eyes!" ”

Di Renjie said: "Okay, you describe the situation at that time!" ”

Zhou An thought for a moment and said, "I ...... about ten days ago."

Zhou An told everyone about the scene he saw that day!

In the early morning of winter, it was still a little dark, and the people of Xilin Villa were still asleep, Zhou An got up early as usual, because he had to go to the well to fetch water, and his daily work was to fill a few tanks of water before the fire in the house!

On this day, Zhou An finished picking up water, built a fire on the stove, put water on the shelf, and after everything was ready, Zhou An went to the courtyard to chop wood!

After chopping firewood for a while, the water on the stove was boiled, Zhou An put down the axe of chopping wood, walked into the room, filled some water on the stove, turned around and prepared to come out, walked to the door, and suddenly saw a figure in the corner not far away, Zhou An hurriedly hid behind the door and checked secretly!

At this time, a figure flashed out from behind the wall, carrying a burden on his body, it was Tang Zhun, the young owner of Xilin Villa, Tang Zhun saw Zhou An enter the room, beckoned behind him, and walked out of the darkness A woman, it was the owner's wife Begonia, Begonia looked at Tang Zhun nervously, a little apprehensive, and wanted to ask rhetorically, but Tang Zhun signaled her to silence!

Tang Zhun looked at the back door, then looked at the room, and saw that Zhou An didn't come out, so he pulled Haitang to the back door quickly, and gently pulled the latch open!

Squeak!

The back door opened, Tang Zhun hurriedly pulled Haitang out of the back door, and a carriage was already waiting here at the back door!

At this time, Zhou An came out of the room, saw the back door wide open, and said to himself: "Why did the young owner and the wife of the owner go out so early?" Where is this going? Hey, whatever, I've got to go and close the door, and if the butler sees it, he won't break my leg. ”

With that, Zhou An walked towards the back door and was preparing

Closing the door, he caught a glimpse of a carriage not far away, Zhou An poked his head out curiously, looked in the direction of the carriage, and saw that Tang Zhun, the young owner, was helping the owner's wife Begonia to get on the car, after Begonia got on the car, Tang Zhun also jumped into the carriage, put down the sedan curtain, and the coachman immediately urged the horse forward, and soon the carriage disappeared into the darkness!

Zhou Anxin was puzzled, and said to himself: "It's really strange that this young owner and his wife are still going out at the back door so early?" What are you going to do? ”

Suddenly, Zhou An slapped himself and said to himself, "What do I think these things for?" ”

Zhou An closed the back door of the villa, plugged in the latch, and continued to chop firewood disappreciably!

After listening to Zhou An's story, Di Renjie pondered for a moment and said: "Zhou An, did you find that the young owner and the owner's wife left the village together, did you report to the owner?" ”

Zhou An bowed down and said: "Back to the eldest master, my lord was not in the village in those days, and then when the lord came back, the little one forgot about it, and when the lord asked who had seen the young owner and the owner's wife, the little one remembered!" ”

Tang Yinran interjected: "My lord, that's the case, not long ago, a few squires wanted to sell some good land, and the grass people intended to buy it, so the grass people went to those squires to see the land and talk about the price, so they were not in the village!" ”

Di Renjie nodded and said, "Oh, so that's the case! In other words, you haven't seen the young owner and his wife since that day, haven't you seen them again, right? ”

Zhou An replied: "Go back to the eldest master, what the eldest master said is right, since the day of the fight, the little one has never seen the young owner and the owner's wife!" ”

Di Renjie twisted his hair and pondered for a moment, then said, "Okay, you go down!" If you think of any missing details on the day, be sure to let me know in time! ”

"Yes! Small retirement! Zhou An gave a deep bow and exited the room!

Di Renjie was silent for a long time, thoughtful, and after a long time, Di Renjie spoke: "Master Tang Zhuang, what is wrong with Ling Lang and Mrs. Zun before they disappeared?" ”

Tang Yinran pondered for a moment and said: "Lord Hui, when the grass people were in the village, they didn't find anything unusual, but when the grass people were not in the village, the grass people didn't know what the situation was!" ”

Di Renjie took a sip of tea, slowly put down the tea bowl, and asked, "Master Tang, please forgive Di for being abrupt, did Ling Lang have anything to trespass with Mrs. Zun before he disappeared?" ”
