The name of Xiao Nuan's weaving workshop is very straightforward, it is called "Cotton Mill".

The place where the cotton mill is located was originally a cross-courtyard where the cloth and sundries were placed in the silk mill, and after Xiao Nuan bought a loom and craftsmen from Dengzhou, he placed them here, and most of the craftsmen ate and lived here. Later, Xiao Nuan bought more and more looms, and the craftsmen bought more and more, so she simply bought the yard next to it and expanded the territory of cotton spinning. In order to ensure the safety of the cotton mill, Xiao Nuan also sent someone to protect it secretly.

However, during this time, because the Qi family, the Jiang family and several other weaving shops in Dengzhou sent craftsmen to visit and study, some of these people lived in the cotton mill, and those who could not live settled in the inn next to it, so there were more people in and out of the cotton mill every day.

When there are more people, the difficulty of protection will increase, so the thieves took advantage of the situation and kidnapped Zhang Chunsheng!

Because he was afraid that everyone's hearts would fluctuate, He Dongbai had not yet spread the news of Zhang Chunsheng's disappearance, so the craftsmen of the cotton mill were still busy in the court without the slightest panic. Seeing that the owner was coming, the stewards and craftsmen came over to salute and say hello, Xiao Nuan said a few words of comfort, and then took people to the house where Zhang Chunsheng lived.

The bed cover on Zhang Chunsheng's bed and the clothes in the cabinet are still there, and there are half-read books and unfinished snacks on the desk, so there is really no intention of running away. Xiao Nuan asked Rhubarb, "Rhubarb, the people in this room are gone, do you smell something wrong?" ”

"Come on, rhubarb!" Xiaocao waved a small stick to cheer up the rhubarb. Rhubarb shook his hair, sniffed around the house, and after a while, he ran to dig under Zhang Chunsheng's bed.

Xiao Nuan immediately said, "Go and see." ”

Liu Shouchun bent down and climbed in, and after a while, he took out a jar, "Little aunt, this should be the silver that Zhang Chunsheng hid under the bed, it seems that he must not have run by himself." ”

"Wang!" Rhubarb wags his tail vigorously.

"Rhubarb is great!" Xiaocao immediately applauded.

Little Warm ......

"Yes, rhubarb is very dry, let's see what's wrong?"

Rhubarb sniffed around for a while and ran to the door, "Wang! ”

Liu Shouchun went over to pull the things in the wooden basin with a stick, "Little aunt, these are all dirty clothes that have not been washed." ”

"Rhubarb is great!" Xiaocao applauded again.

Seeing the big yellow dog looking at him brightly, Xiao Nuan had to shoot off the spider webs under the drilling bed for it, "Rhubarb is very good, do you remember the smell of this person?" ”

"Wang, Wang!"

"I'll rely on you later, find him out!"

"Wang!" Rhubarb stuck out his tongue and haha, unusually energetic.

He Fenglu came back, "Little Senior Aunt, the Seventh Senior Uncle is no longer in the temple, I don't know where I went." ”

Coincidentally, this is also a helpless thing, Xiao Nuan nodded.

Xuan Wu came back, "This matter has nothing to do with Gao Cangjie. ”

Xuan Er also said, "My subordinates have also inquired, and no one in Beijing has sent anyone over." ”

This is also good news, Xiao Nuan nodded.

Green Butterfly has returned, "We have sent people to guard the waterway out of the city, and we are secretly protecting the people in the cotton mill, and two of them are missing." ”

Xiao Nuan immediately ordered, "Green Butterfly took Rhubarb to search for the place where Zhang Chunsheng disappeared, Xuan Wu traced the whereabouts of the missing two, He Dongbai went to check the people in the cotton mill who were friends with Zhang Chunsheng, and then checked if there were any abnormal whereabouts recently." ”

Everyone immediately followed the order, Xiaocao shook his little head and looked at these waves of people, not following Rhubarb and Green Butterfly, but following behind He Dongbai. Xiao Nuan instructed Liu Shouchun to follow immediately, and she herself sat in the study to make up for the loss, arranged for manpower to strengthen the protection of the cotton mill, and at the same time sent someone to inform Lou Xiaoqian and asked him to send officials to help find Zhang Chunsheng's whereabouts.

When Zhao Shuyan and Qin San came in, they were very relieved to see Xiao Nuan, who was sitting in the study and looking through the roster. The wind and rain have not changed, and Xiao Nuan has become more and more calm.

Xiao Nuan stood up, "Big brother, Qin Dongjia, why are you here?" ”

Qin San said, "Green Butterfly ran back and forth in front of the Ayaluo Fang for a few laps, and Qin grabbed her and asked. Girl, do you have something for Qin to do? ”

He really wants to be an errand runner, he hasn't worked hard for a long time, and Qin San's hands are itching.

Xiao Nuan shook his head at the staring "Qin Dongjia", "We don't need to do this in person, Chunhua, tea." ”

That's right, he is now Qin in charge, not Qin San, Qin San regretfully sat down.

Zhao Shuyan smiled lightly, "My sister will talk about this matter in detail, the three of them are wise, and the two of us will help you with the details, and Xu will sort out some clues." ”

Xiao Nuan told the story again, and then said, "I guess that among the craftsmen in the cotton mill now, there may be someone who is related to the person who robbed Zhang Chunsheng, and he Dongbai has been asked to investigate."

Zhao Shuyan nodded, "My sister will take a look at the roster with me." ”

Xiao Nuan asked people to hand it over, and after Zhao Shuyan looked at it, he pointed to the Lu family in Dengzhou and said, "The Lu family is the cousin of the Xue Ruike family, the former secretary of the Ministry of War, and has a close relationship with the Xue family. ”

Xuan Yi also remembered one thing, "Girl, Xue Ruike's third son has a very good personal relationship with Zheng Duchu, and this son is also a cunning person, but he has gone to Meizhou with his father. Xue Ruike was convicted and demoted to the training envoy of the Meizhou regiment.

It's really fish looking for fish, shrimp looking for shrimp, and turtles looking for kings. Xiao Nuan immediately said, "Let He Dongbai focus on the three craftsmen from the Lu family." ”

Chunhua passed the word, and almost didn't hit the grass that ran in. Xiaocao ran to her sister's side, pulled her sleeve and said, "Sister, I found a person with a problem, he was panicked and sneaky!" ”

Xiaocao is a child, and no one thinks about her, so she is the easiest to find problems. Xiao Nuan immediately nodded, "Let Shouchun bring someone over." ”

Seeing that her sister was willing to believe her, Xiaocao immediately ran away, and followed Liu Shouchun to bring people to her sister for a while.

Xiao Nuan, who was good at observing words and expressions, saw that although this person seemed to be honest, he was subconsciously sideways when he was standing, and his toes were leaning towards the door, so he knew that he felt uneasy here and wanted to run.

Xiao Nuan and Zhao Shuyan looked at each other, and Zhao Shuyan asked, "Who are you from, where are you from, report your name." ”

The man bent down and bowed his head and said, "The villain Lu Hu is from the Lu family in Dengzhou. ”

Zhao Shuyan asked again, "Who did you learn to weave cotton cloth with in the cotton mill?" ”

"Brother Zhang Chunsheng." Lu Hu replied.

The Lu family came to follow Zhang Chunsheng again, and it seems that there is really some connection. Xiao Nuan looked at Qin San, Qin San immediately understood, stood up and turned to go out.

Zhao Shuyan asked again, "Do you know where Zhang Chunsheng went?" ”

Lu Hu nodded, "Brother Zhang didn't have clean socks to wear, so he went out to buy socks." ”

Thinking of Zhang Chunsheng's big basin of dirty clothes, the corners of Xiao Nuan's mouth twitched.

Zhao Shuyan asked a few words and found nothing, and Qin San also shook his head when he came back, indicating that he had found nothing at Lu Hu's residence. /13_13675/
