Chapter Eighty-Nine: Progress

Chen Qing heard someone's voice, his face was overjoyed, and he said tentatively.

"My name is Chen Qing, who are you?"

Gu Mingzhu whispered.

"My name is Gu Mingzhu."

Chen Qing didn't know anything about Gu Mingzhu, but it didn't prevent him from understanding the situation, knowing that Gu Mingzhu was stunned and taken away, thinking that he himself was stunned by someone on the other side of the dock.

"The dock you're talking about, you're the girl who was taken away at the docks?"

Gu Mingzhu leaned against the wall, listened to Chen Qing's words, and asked puzzled.

"You know me?"

Chen Qing's nervous heart also slowed down a lot at this time, and said with a smile.

"I was also on the dock at the time, I saw someone stunned you, I wanted to tell my eldest brother, where did I know that soon I would be stunned by someone with something, and when I woke up, I found that I was here, I couldn't see anything, my eldest brother and sister-in-law must be looking for me in a hurry."

When Gu Mingzhu heard this, there was such a thing, and she said apologetically.

"It's all my fault."

"It's none of your business."

Chen Qing didn't blame her, but comforted her a few words and said quickly.

"We've been talking for a while, and there's no other sound in the room, so it seems like it's just the two of us here, are your hands, feet, and eyes also blindfolded?"

"Yes."

Gu Mingzhu said obediently.

"Don't move."

Chen Qing said softly, and soon followed the voice he had just judged and rolled towards Gu Mingzhu's side, and after a lot of tossing, the two of them took the cloth on their eyes away.

Gu Mingzhu opened his eyes and smiled at him for the first time when he saw Chen Qing.

It was the first time for Chen Qing to see such a good-looking girl, and he was a little embarrassed, so he looked away, and looked around.

"Don't worry, I was kidnapped last time, but soon my eldest brother found me, and this time will be no exception."

Gu Mingzhu nodded obediently, the fear in her heart had dissipated a lot, and she thought in her heart, she was gone, her grandmother and brother would definitely find out soon, and they would definitely send someone to find them.

"Well, it's just that I'm a little hungry."

Chen Qing heard Gu Mingzhu say this, her face was a little embarrassed, especially when she looked at the clear eyes of the little girl, she knew that she was not an ordinary girl, hey, at first glance, she was not deeply involved in the world, and when a girl's family encountered a kidnapping, she didn't cry or make trouble, but this is also good, crying can't solve the problem, but now they really have nothing to eat.

"Then bear with me."

After saying this, he looked at Gu Mingzhu, and saw that the little girl nodded very well-behaved, he was a little unbearable, but he couldn't do anything.

It was only when he soon heard movement outside, and he immediately became vigilant, and the cloth bands on his eyes could not be put on.

The small room was kicked open, and a fat man came in with a plate in one hand, and in it were two steamed buns, and when his eyes touched the eyes of the two people, he first squinted, and then soon smiled.

"Yo, this is quite capable, and I even got all the eyebands off."

Chen Qing looked at the visitor vigilantly and did not speak.

The man squatted down Shenzi, there was a smell of sweat on his body, Gu Mingzhu wrinkled his nose when he smelled it, and was seen by the man in his eyes, stretched out his hand and wiped it on Gu Mingzhu's face, and soon smashed his mouth.

"Look at the appearance of this water spirit, it will be a beautiful embryo after seeing it, it's a pity."

Chen Qing didn't like the man's actions, but he couldn't help the man, and he couldn't anger the man, they were weak, and it was the two of them who would suffer when the time came.

Gu Mingzhu was touched by a man like this, and there were immediately red marks on her fair face, and her eyes were also red, and Chen Qing, who was looking at it, pursed her lips again, and couldn't say words of comfort.

The man didn't care about their thoughts, and rudely let go of their hands, and said in a vicious voice.

"One person and one steamed bun, you all give me honesty, otherwise you will be comfortable."

After saying that, he smiled contemptuously and swaggered outside, not forgetting to close the door.

Chen Qing quickly picked up the two steamed buns from the plate on the ground and handed one to Gu Mingzhu.

Gu Mingzhu looked at the steamed bun in front of her, she didn't answer, her eyes were still red.

"Eat, aren't you hungry? If you don't eat, you'll only be hungry, and if you're hungry, you won't have the strength, and if you don't have the strength, you won't be able to think, and you won't be able to run out even if you want to. ”

Gu Mingzhu was very aggrieved in her heart, she had never eaten such a rough steamed bun since she was a child, which time she ate a delicate milky steamed bun, and there would be coconut filling in it, she pouted slightly.

Little Master Chen Qing sighed.

"You don't eat it, I do."

Gu Mingzhu listened to her words, her watery eyes looked directly at Chen Qing, this little brother spoke quite gently, but he didn't coax her like a big brother.

Chen Qing was a little embarrassed by Gu Mingzhu's eyes, but he had never gotten along with a little girl since he was a child.

"Here you go, if it's cold, it won't taste good."

Hearing this Bangbang's words, Gu Mingzhu was even more aggrieved, but she still stretched out her hand to take the steamed bun, she was too hungry.

Chen Qing also breathed a sigh of relief with her movements, and suddenly felt that it was still his sister-in-law who was easy to get along with, and this little girl was too squeamish.

While he was eating steamed buns, his ears were also listening to the movement outside, and he carefully looked at their house, such a small room was like a special use for closing people, and the sound of opening and closing the door outside was also very clear, and he could hear the cry of children, Chen Qing's eyebrows were frowning.

Chen Xuan and Gu Zige came to a simple small courtyard on the shore, there was not much dust, and they saw that this courtyard was often walked around.

"A few people have a sip of tea first, and I'll go and call someone."

The man brought a house of hot tea, poured a cup for everyone one by one, and smiled kindly.

As soon as the man left, Gu Zige looked at Chen Xuan.

"What have you found?"

While asking Chen Xuan, he naturally picked up the teacup, but Chen Xuan held his hand, and some of the tea was spilled on the table.

Gu Zige glared at Chen Xuan, but seeing Chen Xuan's positive appearance, he glanced at the teacup in his hand subconsciously, "This tea." ”

Chen Xuan interrupted him, looked around, and said in a soft voice.

"Be careful when you go out, this place is not simple, can you contact those people outside?"

Gu Zige put the teacup down, glanced at Chen Xuan deeply, still chose to believe him, and then turned towards the guards beside him.

The guard understood what he meant, and disappeared in a flash, Chen Xuan's eyes flashed, and he sighed in his heart that there were many capable people in this rich family.

Gu Zige naturally looked at the other guard, and the guard naturally walked towards the outside of the courtyard, and Chen Xuan didn't chase after him and asked the reason.

waited, but when it got dark, the man was late.

The man saw that several of them were still sitting in the hall, the tea was not drunk, his eyes flashed, but his face was smiling, "I'm really sorry, the person I know, there are some things that the boat can't borrow today, but I have already told him that I will drive over early tomorrow morning, it will not be early, if a few of you just take a rest here, I will go and ask the cook to come over and prepare some food for a few people." ”

Xu was afraid that Gu Zige would not be satisfied, so he also said deliberately.

"Don't worry, the cook's skills will definitely not be bad."

Gu Zige's face was displeased.

Chen Xuan hurriedly persuaded him.

"Childe, I think since it's not early, if you want to go back to Fucheng now, it's still troublesome, so let's hurry up and wait until tomorrow morning, and we can get on the big boat."

"Hmph, next time Young Master Ben travels, he won't take you fools with him, when he was on the road before, he first encountered water thieves, but fortunately, Young Master Ben has nothing to do, and today he made such a thing."

The man listened to Gu Zige's complaints, thinking that he had just taken someone to their boat to look, but he didn't see anything like a salute, but now when he heard Gu Zige say this, the doubt in his heart dissipated, and he still had a kind smile on his face.

After complaining, I still lived here.

As soon as the man left, Gu Zige looked at Chen Xuan.

"I think this person is a little strange, it's better to take the person down directly, the longer it drags on, the more unfavorable it will be for us."

Chen Xuan also felt that what Gu Zige said was not wrong, and looked at the few people present.

"You send someone to get the people in Mali, don't alarm the others."

Gu Zige smiled when he heard this, and looked at the guards behind him.

"You see how, right?"

The guard answered and dodged away.

Nursery rhymes, they took Shen Dahu to the yamen, because Feng Jinsheng was there, and the people on the yamen side were also very cooperative, and soon found the place he said according to the information provided by Shen Dahu.

This place is really on the side of West Street, near the Liang River, and there are some ordinary residents living here.

"Open the door!"

The nursery rhyme watched the servant bang on the door, and there was a sound in the originally quiet alley, but no one in the courtyard came out of the door.

However, there were dressed people coming out of the alley, and when they saw so many officials, they wanted to see the excitement, but they didn't dare to step forward too much.

The nursery rhyme went up to a woman and asked.

"Auntie, are you a resident of this neighborhood?"

The eldest aunt looked directly at the servants with her eyes, she looked the nursery rhyme up and down, thinking that she was also watching the fun, and said with a smile.

"I live next door to this, this big night, and I don't know what the owner of this courtyard has done, so many people from the yamen come to surround it."

The nursery rhyme's eyes flashed slightly, and she smiled.

"Auntie, what is this family doing?"

The eldest aunt has a flat mouth and looks like she can't say anything.
