Chapter 17: My Brother Who Has Been Missing for Five Years
Shangguan Yutang suddenly realized: "Could it be that Ruyan found that he had lost his things, so he came to find someone in the middle of the night?" ”
"Well, most likely." Dugu Shaobai pulled Shangguan Yutang, and the two walked to the depths of the alley, how did they know that there were also people with torches and official uniforms passing in front of them.
Suddenly, a hand was placed on Shangguan Yutang's shoulder, and a female voice sounded: "Childe! ”
Dugu Shaobai and Shangguan Yutang turned their heads, Taohong beckoned to them, the two glanced at each other and entered the house.
Taohong invited the two to the backyard and said, "Two sons, my house is relatively shabby, and I hope the two sons will not dislike it." ”
gave the two of them tofu flowers again: "The two of you got rid of Wang Bingquan, the big villain, I thank you for my sister." ”
Shangguan Yutang saw that this little girl looked sincere, and he couldn't bear to refuse the kindness of others: "Thank you for the tofu flower of the peach girl." ”
Taohong's face flushed slightly, rubbed the corners of her clothes, and looked at Shangguan Yutang shyly: "Childe doesn't need to say thank you, by the way, Childe, someone from the government knocked on the door just now to look for someone, are they your colleagues?" ”
Dugu Shaobai raised his eyes and said, "No, do you know who they are looking for?" ”
Peach shook her head: "They showed me a portrait, it was a man with a mole on his chin, freckles on his face, and a mustache, and a lewd appearance, I haven't seen it." ”
"Poof!" Shangguan Yutang couldn't help but squirt a mouthful of tofu flowers, was her appearance very obscene when she went to Chunxiang Mansion just now?
Taohong thought that Shangguan Yutang was choking, and took a clean handkerchief to her: "Son, eat slowly, by the way, I don't know the names of the two sons?" ”
Shangguan Yutang took the handkerchief and thanked him: "In Shangguan Yutang, this is my eldest brother Dugu Shaobai." ”
Taohong's head nodded: "It turns out that it is Shangguan Gongzi and Dugu Gongzi, you are from the Imperial Capital City, right?" Peach served two more side dishes to the two, and there was a trace of hesitation in her eyes, and she stopped talking.
Shangguan Yutang looked at her like this, as if there was something difficult to say.
"Miss Pink, is there something you want to tell us?"
When Shangguan Yutang asked this, Taohong's eyes turned red, and tears flowed uncontrollably.
"Pink girl, if there is anything you need our help with, just say that if we can help, we will definitely do our best." Dugu Shaobai looked at Taohong's pitiful appearance, there must be something unspeakable, could it be about her family?
Taohong wiped her tears: "Actually, I also have an elder brother, if he is still alive, he should be the same age as Lord Dugu, our father and mother went early, my brother has taken care of me and Sister Qiaoxia since he was a child, who knew that five years ago, my brother said that there were people recruiting workers in the drunken fairy building in the imperial capital city, and he wanted to try, who knows, he will never return, he went to the imperial capital city for a year and did not go home, my grandfather was worried about him, so my sister and I went to the drunken fairy building to find him, as a result, the people in the drunken fairy building said that my brother had a stubborn disease, I had already kicked him out, and later Brother Shenlong and Su Hang also went to Zuixianlou to find my brother, and the reply they got was like a withdrawal. It's been five years, woo woo...... I don't know where my brother went......"
As soon as Peach's voice fell, there was a sound of "knock-" on the side, I don't know when, Grandpa Peach woke up and stood at the door of the bedroom, as soon as he heard Peach mention his eldest grandson, his heart sank, and the crutches in his hand fell to the ground without holding it steady, and the next moment, Grandpa Peach also cried.
"Oh my poor ironborn...... Oh my God...... Why do you do this to me...... I'm out of iron...... I lost Qiaoxia again...... The heavens are unfair......"
Dugu Shaobai walked up to him, helped him pick up the crutches on the ground, and said, "Grandpa, Yu Tang and I will go to help investigate this matter." ”
Peach's eyes lit up: "Really? Can you really help us? ”
"Pink girl, your brother has been missing for five years, can you report to the government back then?"
Shangguan Yutang asked, if someone is missing, report it to the government in time, and the chance of finding it back will be greater.
Peach shook her head with red eyes: "At that time, we had a message to the mayor of Taoyuan Town, but the mayor at that time did not find my brother in Taoyuan Town, at that time, my sister and I were not very old, and we had never seen the world, so we didn't know where else to find people from the government." ”
Shangguan Yutang: "When we return from Taoyuan Town, we will find a way to find your brother, but your brother has been missing for five years, and we are not sure if we can find it." ”
Peach Hong cried with joy and tugged at Shangguan Yutang's sleeve: "Shangguan Gongzi, you two can agree to help, my grandfather and I are already grateful." ”
Taohong knelt in front of Shangguan Yutang and was about to kowtow: "No matter what, I want to thank the two adults." ”
"Pink, what are you doing here? Get up! Shangguan Yutang immediately picked up Taohong: "When my eldest brother and I find your brother, you will thank us, and now we can't afford your thanks." ”
This is the first time that Taohong has been so close to a "man", her face flushed slightly, and then she broke away from Shangguan Yutang's hand holding her slender arm: "Okay...... Lord Shangguan, I'm waiting for your news. ”
Chunxiang Building
Ruyan rummaged through the cabinets in her bedroom, no matter how she looked, she didn't find the flying pigeon that Leng Feng gave her, she sent her own men disguised as guards of the government to search door to door, and she did not find the stinky gangsters who were making trouble in her Chunxiang Building tonight.
Su Shanao flew down from the roof and jumped into the window, he had a calm face: "There are traces of being trampled on the roof, maybe when that stinky gangster was making trouble downstairs, he and another person were in harmony with each other, and while we were away from the wing, the people guarding the roof entered your room and searched for those letters!" ”
Su Shanao had never made a face to Ruyan, but this time, the mistake Ruyan made this time was unforgivable.
"Like smoke, in vain I always thought you were smart and clever, how could you not burn the flying pigeon that the hall master gave you?!"
Ruyan clenched her fists with both hands, how could she have thought that someone had already targeted her? How the hell was she targeted? Ruyan kept thinking that every time she and Leng Fengjue met, she was cautious, could it be that someone overheard her conversation with Leng Fengjue when she wasn't paying attention?
Ruyan thought back to what had happened during this time, and her mind recalled the night when the military was paid. That night, she led the secret guard cultivated by Leng Feng Jue to meet with Wang Bingquan, and later, the people from the Protector Villa appeared to fight with her, but the people from the Protector Villa didn't know her, why did they find out about her? Could it be that Wang Bingquan told everything to the people of Huguo Villa after he was taken away at that time? However, she received the news of Wang Bingquan's death shortly after Wang Bingquan was rescued, and she always thought that Wang Bingquan was shot to death by their men while fleeing.
Wang Bingquan has always been as timid as a mouse, and he was already good that night when he wasn't scared, can he still tell all about her and Leng Fengjue? However, Wang Bingquan is dead, and there are no witnesses in Huguo Villa.
Suddenly, Ruyan remembered another person who appeared that night, that person rolled down the mountain, or the person who protected the country and saved him, that person's voice was very familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere, could it be that person also heard his own voice? Gradually, Ruyan's mind came up with a man who had helped those noble ladies catch rapes in Chunxiang Building......
