Chapter 573: Unlucky
Time flies, and at the end of March, the two little milk dogs sent by Xiao Cheng were already able to eat independently and spread joy everywhere in the yard.
In addition to cooking, Xiao Yu'er now spends the rest of his time with the two puppies. She is taller than when she first came to the Yang family, her face is fleshy, her withered yellow hair is gradually shiny, she always has a smile on her face, and her eyes are much more confident. Xiao Yu'er's whole person has a new look, and she is almost like the previous Lu Ni, but I am afraid that now she is going head-to-head with Fan, and Fan may not be able to recognize her.
Jiang looked at his daughter's cheerful smile, he was really satisfied, there is nothing more important than Xiao Yu'er living happily.
Du Yuniang was worried, Yang Zheng had been gone for more than half a month, and there was no news at all. Her shop is about to be cleaned up, and Huzi's side is ready, just waiting for someone to pick him up so that he can go to school.
But there was no news from Yang Zheng's side, which made Du Yuniang very anxious.
Jiang also comforted Du Yuniang that no news is good news, and if the news is really poked out, things will be bad.
"Maybe the old man will come back when he finishes his errands."
Du Yuniang also knows this truth, what is secret arrangement? If it really makes a fuss at this time, then it's called a problem!
It's one thing to know in your heart, and it's another thing to worry all the time.
In just ten days, Du Yuniang has lost several pounds, her chin is pointy, and her clothes look a little fat when she hangs on her body.
Jiang had nothing to do about it, he just wanted Yang Zheng to come back soon, and he didn't have to worry about his wife all day long.
didn't wait for Yang Zheng's news, but waited for the news of Bai Chengzi's investigation.
Huo Qing came back in the dust, his clothes were in tatters, his lips were chapped, his hair seemed to have not been washed for many days, and there were still a few dead leaves stuck to it.
"You ......" Liu Xing'er was startled, and finally recognized that the person standing at the door was Huo Qing, but he couldn't say a word.
What's wrong with people!
"Quick!" Huo Qing entered the courtyard, and ran into the house without saying a word, first looking for water to drink, and then he didn't even have time to wash his face, so he said to Liu Xing'er: "You go and deliver the news......"
Jiang hurriedly lifted the curtain and exclaimed at Du Yuniang: "Madam, there is news from Baichengzi!" ”
"How's it going?" Du Yuniang is also very concerned about this matter.
"I went to Baichengzi and asked, there is indeed a Xiucai surnamed Pan, my father and mother fled from Hengshui, but in the early years, a fire burned a family of three to death, and that Pan Xiucai was only twenty years old at that time, and he was obviously not the same as the son-in-law of the Jia family."
Du Yuniang chuckled in her heart, thinking that she was really afraid of something.
"Madam, since Pan Xiucai has died a long time ago, who is the son-in-law of the Jia family in front of him? Why did he pretend to be Pan Xiucai? ”
Du Yuniang gritted her teeth, and it took a long time to come to her senses, "What kind of person needs to borrow someone else's name to live?" ”
Jiang Shi thought for a moment and blurted out: "Definitely not a good person!" ”
"Could it be a key criminal in the government's general series?"
"It's possible."
The master and servant fell silent in unison.
Du Yuniang had a terrible headache, and she was just guessing at first, but she didn't expect that this Jia man really had a problem. If you are not a wrongdoer, why should you live under someone else's name? Moreover......
"He must know that Pan Xiucai is gone......" Du Yuniang looked up at Jiang, "He may be from Bai Chengzi?" ”
"Don't think about it, madam, that person must not be good! If you are not a villain, why should you live under someone else's name! Jiang Shi said worriedly: "During this time, we must be vigilant, no matter who he is, it is just a matter of not offending us, if he dares to beat our idea, the slave will let him go and never return." ”
Jiang's words were not said casually, if she was here alone, she wouldn't dare to say such big things.
But with Huo Qing and Liu Xing'er, their chances of winning are much better.
Huo Qingnian is not very old, but his kung fu is excellent, and he is an ordinary martial artist, and he is not his opponent at all.
Liu Qing'er looks petite and lovely, looking innocent, but she is a doctor and poisoner, and she is good at treating the world's diseases with poison.
"Tell Xiao Yu'er not to go out recently! When a stranger comes to call the door, it cannot be opened. It is very important to take precautions, Du Yuniang thought about it and said: "Why don't you talk to Xiao Yu'er, just say that those two are not good people, let her stay away." ”
Jiang Shi thought of his daughter, and his heart was also tight, "Don't worry, I understand." ”
Du Yuniang waved her hand, "You can talk to her now." ”
"Madam, it's okay for anything else, our shop is almost in order, and if it opens, we can't just put it aside because of this incident, right?"
Du Yuniang bit her lower lip and said, "You let me think about it." ”
Jiang didn't speak, and gently retreated.
That night, Jiang repeatedly explained to Xiao Yu'er that she couldn't go out for the past few days, and she had to stay at home obediently.
Xiao Yu'er was an obedient child, and she didn't even ask why, so she nodded in response.
"Mother won't hurt you, that's what Mrs. means!"
Xiao Yu'er said solemnly: "Mother, don't worry, I won't go out." ”
At night, Huo Qing appeared quietly on the roof of the Yang family, dressed in a strong suit.
From now on, he and Liu Xing'er will take turns to guard the Yang family in case anything happens.
The person was unidentified and certainly not a good person.
According to Huo Qing's many years of experience, most of this person is a fugitive, and he is incognito here, but unfortunately he doesn't know how, but he actually aroused the suspicion of the fifth sister-in-law.
I didn't expect it to be a simple trick to lure a thief, and it would pull out the doubts about his life experience.
Huo Qing held his sword, leaned against a corner, closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.
Fortunately, Liu Xing'er made him an anti-mosquito herbal sachet, otherwise, he would probably be bitten to death by mosquitoes if he sat on the roof for a night.
This night, the Yang family was calm.
When the sky was just dawning, Huo Qing jumped off the roof, and took advantage of the fog in the morning to hurriedly return to his and Liu Xing'er's 'home'.
After Du Yuniang got up, she went to the back of the house to boxing as usual.
Now that the strength of her fists has improved a lot, she also looks like she has some momentum, and she is no longer fluttery. Sometimes she will play tricks with Sister-in-law Jiang so that she can practice actual combat.
Du Yuniang felt that she had made great progress, but she also knew that she was just embroidering her legs with fists these few times, and she could bluff people when she met a gangster, if she really met an expert, she was afraid that she would not even be able to go through ten moves.
However, Jiang Shi said that this is already very good, after all, she is just an ordinary person, far away from those bloody and bloody winds, and it is enough to use a few tricks to protect herself.
Du Yuniang's sense of crisis, Jiang Shi doesn't understand. Du Yuniang didn't want to tell her, and sometimes, talking too much reduced the credibility of the matter.
"Ma'am, ma'am!" Jiang Shi carried a vegetable basket and hurriedly walked to the backyard, she put the vegetable basket on the stone table, and went to the backyard to find Du Yuniang.
Du Yuniang heard that her voice was wrong, and hurriedly gathered her momentum, stabilized her breath, and then pulled out her legs and walked to the front yard.
The master and servant almost collided.
"What's wrong, what's the matter?" Du Yuniang's voice was out of tune, she was afraid that something had happened to Yang Zheng, and her heart was in her throat, and she almost lost her footing.
Seeing her flustered like this, Jiang also understood that she had misunderstood, and hurriedly said: "It's not the master's business, it's not the master's business." ”
Du Yuniang breathed a sigh of relief, and her heart fell back into her stomach, "What's the matter?" ”
"In the ditch outside the town, I found a girl~" Jiang Shi was afraid of stimulating her, so he said very implicitly: "That girl is not very old, and she has ......"
Du Yuniang's head buzzed.
In the ditch, I found a girl~
This......
She had dreamed of this scene before.
"Is the girl dead?"
Jiang nodded, "The water in the river has changed color, and it is bloody. ”
Du Yuniang felt as if her heart had been grabbed, and her face turned white.
Jiang thought she was frightened, and hurriedly said, "Madam, did it scare you?" ”
Du Yuniang waved her hand, "You come into the house with me." ”
The two men entered the house on their feet.
Du Yuniang poured herself several mouthfuls of water in a row before wiping the water stains on her mouth and asked Jiang: "What's going on?" ”
"When someone entered the city, he wanted to relieve himself on the way, so he went to the woods outside the city, and found red blood stains in the ditch. The man was bold, so he went upstream, and found a dead body in the ditch. The girl, defenseless, had been murdered. ”
Du Yuniang's face turned white, "Beast! She thought about it for a while and felt that something was not quite right, "Sister-in-law Jiang, you have something to say, don't worry about me, I'm not afraid." ”
Jiang said: "Madam, I doubt it has anything to do with Jia's doctor!?" ”
"As we said earlier, he may be a fugitive who has to use someone else's name as a last resort and live incognito! Originally, I didn't pay attention to today's incident, but on the way back, I heard that Pan Xiucai left home yesterday, and Jia said that he went out to make money, but I thought, things shouldn't be so coincidental, how to say that they ran into it! ”
It's not that she wants to be nosy, it's just that if her neighbor is really a fugitive, then his wife's safety is not guaranteed. With such a person around, it is a great danger, who knows if he will move his thoughts to his own home!
Du Yuniang thought about her previous life, and suddenly asked, "Could he be a flower thief?" "In my previous life, I killed several girls one after another, but they were first insulted and then their throats were cut.
Such a thief is intolerable.
Jiang frowned, carefully searching for the memories in his mind.
She used to have some names in the rivers and lakes, and she also knew some of the big and small things on the rivers and lakes. It was only later that he offended people and had to start a life of fugitive.
In those years, in order to find Xiaoyuer, in order to take revenge, she inquired about a lot of things, whether it was related or not, she asked all over again.
If you talk about flower thieves, it seems that there really is one.
Don't mention those thieves who don't enter the stream, back then, there was a person known as the Demon Lord of Destroying Flowers, who specially picked those graceful female dependents, whether it was a big girl or a little daughter-in-law, as long as she was beautiful, he would not let go of any of them.
It's just that this person is not like an ordinary flower thief, after he succeeds, he often kills the victim, and the means are extremely cruel, usually cutting his throat to death.
Jiang told Du Yuniang everything he knew, "However, that person died a few years ago!" ”
"Dead?" Du Yuniang asked what was going on.
"I heard that I was caught, and I was put in prison at that time. Because he was a felon, he was tried in public, and he was directly pushed to the entrance of the vegetable market and beheaded, and many people saw it with their own eyes. ”
Then it's not him? Or is there someone who wants to use that person's methods to commit crimes?
"Then, isn't that thief's martial arts very good?" Otherwise, no one would have been able to catch him and let him get away with it for so long.
"It's just that I heard that he has achieved light skills, and his martial arts are numerous, but no one has said it in detail."
Du Yuniang said: "The son-in-law of the Jia family is very thin and doesn't look like kung fu. ”
"Not really, ma'am, some people are short and thin, but they are very suitable for light exercises."
Du Yuniang asked her: "Have you seen that Pan Xiucai?" If you meet, can you tell his way? ”
Jiang Shi thought for a while, and his face turned even paler, "It's strange to say, I've lived here for a while, but I've never seen that poor Xiucai!" Everyone said that he was very lazy, that he slept and drank all day, and now that I think about it, it is very suspicious! ”
He is a big man, but in the neighborhood, the neighbors often can't see him, as if everyone knows this person, but it is word of mouth, but there are few people who really see him?
Wouldn't it be too exaggerated?
Or does he only appear in front of people who want to appear?
Du Yuniang was dizzy, "Let's take a look, you keep an eye on the news, and see when this Pan Xiucai will come back!" Don't we have a helper? Tell them not to startle the snake! ”
Jiang Shi nodded hurriedly, "I understand." ”
Because there was a murder outside the town, it had been several days, but there were no clues at all, so there was a strange atmosphere in the entire Wuyan town. It is rare to see a big girl and a little daughter-in-law on the street, and business seems to have been affected.
When Xiao Cheng came to the door again, he brought two pieces of news.
The shop was immediately renovated, and the plaque was ready, ready to open.
What's more, there are dead people in other towns, and they are also young girls.
When it comes to this now, it's just a panic. The doors and windows of every house are closed, for fear that the elusive murderer will come to his house to commit murder.
Xiao Cheng said to Du Yuniang: "I see your shop, let's open it again after a while!" Unlucky. ”
