Chapter 58 Honest Confession
Xiaoqiu turned her head away, and ran back to continue counting the ants on the ground.
Xiao Xia went back to the house and didn't see Xiao Chun, so he sat in the yard and watched Xiao Qiu play alone. The two ants carried the food as big as them forward, and after a few steps, they were picked back by Xiaoqiu with a stick, but the little ants were not discouraged, and still followed the original route, insisting on transporting the food home.
A quarter of an hour passed, and Xiao Xia finally realized that something was wrong with the Shen family today. How could the big room be so quiet, it was very lively every day, and the door of the big room was closed at this time. Even the rest of the Shen family was unusually quiet, the chimney in the upper room was smoking, and the Zhao family was cooking dinner in the kitchen, but she felt that why did the Zhao family keep glancing at her, was it her delusion?
"Mother, mother, do you know where Koharu has gone?" Xiao Xia suddenly felt uneasy.
"I should still be learning embroidery at your grandmother's house!" Xiao Wang replied disapprovingly and continued the work in hand.
"I'll take a look." Xiao Xia picked up her crutches and walked towards Grandma Liu's house.
As soon as Xiao Xia's figure came out of the gate, Zhao hurriedly ran into the main house.
"Mother, Shen Xiaoxia went to Mrs. Liu's house to find someone, what should I do?"
"Keep your mouth shut, and don't tell her anything, let them go in a hurry. Now that the money-losing goods are estimated to be in the building, don't think of it in this life. Old Mrs. Jia smiled gloatingly, feeling very relieved, thinking that Shen Xiaoxia would be sad and sad, she finally felt comfortable in her heart.
"Daddy and mother haven't raised her for so many years, Shen Xiaochun should feel honored." Shen Hui was in a good mood so much that she wanted to jump, as long as the three Shen Xiaoxia sisters were unlucky, she would be happy, and today she finally got rid of a thorn in her eye.
Xiao Xia arrived at Grandma Liu's house, but learned that Xiao Chun was taken back by the Zhao family at noon, and he never came since.
Xiao Xia returned to the courtyard of the Shen family and blocked the Zhao family who was still burning the fire in the kitchen.
"Your grandmother and Mrs. Liu don't deal with each other, your sisters are good, and you are rushing to be an apprentice to that mother-in-law, can your grandma be happy? I called her back, and after saying a few words, she cried and ran, and I didn't know where she had gone. I don't look in the mirror to see what kind of goods I am, and I also learn embroidery from the young lady in the city, and no matter how good I learn, I can't get on the faΓ§ade for a lifetime. β
Zhao said that the head is the Tao, and he did not forget to bury a few words. Xiao Xia didn't suspect it, and when he saw Shen Zhong coming back, he asked him to go out and look for it.
Seeing that it was dark, Xiaochun still didn't come back, and Shen Zhong searched around the village but couldn't find it, so he finally got anxious.
"I just said that I wouldn't let her learn any embroidery from Mrs. Liu, where did this dead girl go?" Xiao Wang wiped his tears while complaining, and no one was in the mood to eat dinner when it was ready.
The more Xiao Xia thought about it, the more wrong it became, there must have been something she didn't know, the family in the big house was not there, and Shen Nengwu was called by his grandmother to the upper room as soon as he returned to the yard and never came out. Xiaochun is not the kind of person who worries, her disappearance must have something to do with Dafang, if it is related, then Zhao must know the reason.
What should Koharu do if she is in danger? Xiao Xia didn't want to wait, and knocked directly on the door of the third room.
Zhao opened the door and saw that it was Xiao Xia, and his heart tightened, but his face was not obvious. Didn't mean to let her into the house. "What are you doing so late?"
Xiao Xia saw that Zhao's face was slightly nervous, and his eyes dodged, which was obviously a sign of weakness. I squeezed in and closed the door.
At this time, Shen Zhi was reading a book when he saw Xiao Xia entering the house and pulling the old man. She was all over the place, and she was not welcome here.
Xiao Xia didn't want to grind either. "Say it! Where did you get Koharu? β
"Where did she go, I know?" The Zhao family is like a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water, and Xiao Xia is even more sure that the Zhao family must know.
The more time passes, the more dangerous Koharu becomes.
"You're not going to say it?"
"How did your father educate you? Dare to talk to your elders like this. Don't think that I'm afraid of you if you pretend to be a ghost, hurry up and get out, your third uncle still has to read! β
Xiao Xia didn't listen to Zhao's nonsense anymore, Shen Zhi's desk was under the window next to the door, and he didn't get up, but it was convenient for Shen Xiaoxia.
When the two of them were defenseless, Xiao Xia's dagger was already against Shen Zhi's neck. "It's better to tell the truth quickly."
"Ah...... Help me...... I'm going to kill someone......" Zhao shouted in fright.
"You're shouting, if you scare me, my little hands will shake." Xiao Xia exerted his strength slightly, and Shen Zhi was left with a blood mark on his neck.
"Don't you know that murder is a crime?" Shen Zhi didn't expect this girl to be so bold that she dared to threaten him with a knife, she was nervous and angry, thinking that she must torture this dead girl well in the future, and she has avenged today's humiliation.
Zhao's screams broke the silence of the Shen family, and everyone in the Shen family ran to the door of the third room, but the door had been closed by Xiao Xia inside, and it couldn't be opened for a while. The voices of denunciation, worry, and scolding outside are higher than one wave, and it is estimated that this door will not be able to withstand it for long.
"Of course I know that murder is illegal, but hurting people is not necessarily guilty, if I shake my hand and slash a few knives on the third uncle's face, I think even the third uncle will not be able to be an official even if he is the champion of the examination!" In ancient times, the imperial examination was very strict, especially the parents of the ancients, the slightest injury could be regarded as unfilial piety, and if you ruined the dream of becoming an official and making a fortune, don't do it.
Shen Zhi naturally knew best, and his whole body began to tremble.
"Third uncle, be careful, if you shake it again, my knife doesn't have eyes." Xiao Xia said cool words in his mouth, but the tip of the knife gestured to Shen Zhi's face.
Zhao was so frightened that his liver and gallbladder were split, and his face turned purple. "Don't, Natsu, I say. This has nothing to do with our three rooms, your grandmother won't let us say it. Shen Xiaochun was sold by your uncle Shen Cai and sold to Chunfeng Building, which is a brothel. β
When Xiao Xia heard this, his brain was immediately congested, and the knife in his hand almost didn't hold it, and it really killed Shen Zhi.
The door of the third room finally opened, and the Shen family blocked the door of the third room, and when they saw that it was Shen Xiaoxia who opened the door, they saw that she was full of evil energy, and she was still holding a half-foot-long sharp knife in her hand, and all the foul language was stopped.
It's really that Xiao Xia's aura is too strong at this time, like an insurmountable mountain, pressing on everyone's hearts, and those who can pant can't wait to hold it back, as long as they don't let this evil god notice themselves.
"Dad, hurry up and take me to Gushan Town, I want to bring Shen Xiaochun back."
"Present...... Now? Shen Zhong was also calmed by his daughter's royal spirit, and he couldn't speak well.
"Shen Xiaochun has been sold by Shen Cai's brute to sell a brothel, and now he must go!" Xiao Xia's eyes were already bigger, and his eyes were bigger than a cow, obviously angry.
"How so?" Shen Zhong was stupid all of a sudden, and he reacted only after being knocked on Shen Xiaoxia's crutches and ran to find the ox cart.
"Ah...... My daughter...... Why are you so miserable......"
Xiao Wang cried, which was the reaction that Xiao Xia expected, but she didn't expect it......
