Chapter 240: Lost

Lin Ziwen and Mu went for a long time and went to many people's homes, but in the end they still didn't find anything.

Mu Shi lowered his head in disappointment and grabbed his clothes.

"Am I homeless?" Mu said in a weak voice.

Lin Ziwen looked at her and opened his mouth, not knowing how to comfort her.

The current Suzhou is still a little different from Mu's impression, and I don't know where her family has gone now.

"Don't worry, we'll find it." Lin Ziwen hugged Mu gently, and then said, "I will definitely let you return home." ”

Mu nodded lightly, and under Lin Ziwen's embrace, he was finally a little more energetic.

"But now, it's getting late, let's go back to our current home first." Lin Ziwen said, "Otherwise, Lingxiu and Ah Bao will be worried about you." ”

Mu nodded, "Go back, go back and play with Bao?" ”

Lin Ziwen said, "Okay, if you like to play with him, just go, just be careful not to get hurt." ”

"Coming back? How's that, did you find it? Shen Lingxiu was preparing dinner and asked worriedly.

Lin Ziwen shook his head slightly, watched Mu and Ah Bao play to the side, and then whispered, "Mother doesn't remember the exact location, I think, those people may not live there anymore." ”

Shen Lingxiu suddenly frowned, "What should I do then?" The purpose of our visit to Suzhou is to find my mother's former family. ”

"I have to think of something else." Lin Ziwen sighed, "This Suzhou is not big, it is not small, and it will take time to find it." ”

"Anyway, let's settle down here now, as long as we are still in Suzhou, we will meet no matter what." Shen Lingxiu comforted Lin Ziwen in turn, "You put this on the table, it's almost time to eat." ”

Lin Ziwen nodded, feeling that what Shen Lingxiu said was also very reasonable.

"Wait tomorrow, I'll go to the street to see if there are any suitable restaurants and shops, and the old business will continue to work." After eating, Shen Lingxiu discussed with Lin Ziwen.

Lin Ziwen thought this method was good, "After you find it, I'll go and see if there is anything that needs to be taught, so it's no different from before." ”

"However, who will take care of it when the time comes?" Shen Lingxiu frowned.

Lin Ziwen thought for a while, "Can we find someone to help, or hire someone to come over?" ”

Shen Lingxiu now has a psychological shadow about finding someone to help, and Su Cuiyu's impression is too deep.

"Anyway, you have to find a reliable one." Shen Lingxiu shook her head, "Let's think about this matter after we find the tavern." ”

"When I go to the tavern, let's go to Uncle Ye's house by the way, I don't know if he has come back."

Lin Ziwen said, "Okay, then be careful by yourself, I have to take care of my mother at home, otherwise I will accompany you." ”

"It's okay, isn't this the same as before?" Shen Lingxiu smiled, "I'll try to come back as soon as possible, whether I find it or not, it's before dark, okay?" ”

Lin Ziwen nodded, "Okay." ”

So, the next day, Shen Lingxiu came to her uncle's house, and the people outside the door also knew her this time.

"Hello, excuse me, is your master back?" Shen Lingxiu said as gently as possible.

The man shook his head, "Not yet, I advise you to get out of here quickly." ”

Shen Lingxiu was stunned for a moment, and was about to ask why, when a person opened the door.

"Yo, who did I think this is, it turned out to be a poor sour ghost."

Shen Lingxiu listened to the tone, and when she saw the person's face again, she remembered that she was the young concubine who had followed her uncle and grandmother before.

She couldn't help but frown, but because this was their territory, she took a deep breath.

"Since the master is not at home, I will not bother."

She arched her hand, intending to leave as it should.

However, the concubine obviously did not intend to let her go.

"What are you going to do?" The concubine looked her dress up and down, and then said with disgust, "Dressed like this, it's definitely not to do anything good." ”

Shen Ling said with a smile, "I don't bother you to worry about it, I naturally have my own affairs." ”

The concubine rolled her eyes, and then gestured to the maid beside her.

The maid immediately leaned over and came to Shen Lingxiu's side.

Shen Lingxiu didn't know what this meant, and looked at the concubine with some confusion.

"Oh, no matter what, you are a guest of our master, in case you sue the master after this, it will be inappropriate to say that we are not good to you." The concubine smiled and said, "This girl knows a lot about the town, if you don't know how to go, just ask her." ”

Shen Lingxiu originally wanted to refuse, but when she heard her say this, she couldn't say anything about refusal.

She is indeed unfamiliar with this place now, and if she really gets lost to a place where no one is, she will not be able to get out for a while.

It's also a good thing to have someone around who knows the place.

Thinking of this, Shen Lingxiu also smiled at the concubine.

"Thank you very much."

The concubine watched the two of them leave, the corners of her mouth slightly hooked, and then retreated to the mansion.

When Shen Lingxiu was walking on the road, she originally wanted to communicate with the maid, but she followed Shen Lingxiu's side with her head down the whole time, and she looked like she couldn't speak at all except asking for directions.

Shen Lingxiu was very knowledgeable about current affairs and didn't say anything more.

She is still quite confident in her sense of direction, after all, she has been up the mountain so many times, and in the end, she was able to turn the danger into a disaster and find a way out.

So she wasn't in a hurry this time, walking slowly on the road, enjoying the beautiful scenery next to her by the way.

The maid raised her eyes slightly and glanced at Shen Lingxiu, and pursed her lips a little impatiently.

The two of them walked for a long, long time, and gradually, Shen Lingxiu felt as if the scene around him had just been seen, so he stopped with some doubts.

"Have we walked through here?" Shen Lingxiu asked the maid.

The maid said respectfully, "You have been here five times since the beginning. ”

Shen Lingxiu was stunned for a moment, then frowned and said, "Since that's the case, why didn't you tell me?" ”

The maid pretended not to understand, and said, "Madame only let me speak when you ask questions. ”

Shen Lingxiu narrowed her eyes, and then sighed.

Forget it, I wouldn't have had any intimate contact with them anyway, and if they really wanted to, I couldn't do anything.

"In that case, which direction should I go now?" Shen Lingxiu looked at the fork in the road in front of him and asked.

The maid glanced at it, then pointed to the path on the left.

Shen Lingxiu glanced at her, but could only see the maid's lowered head.

She withdrew her gaze and walked in that direction.

After walking for a long time, Shen Lingxiu frowned, why did this road seem to be getting more and more remote?

"Hey, is this really the right way to go, I said-" Shen Lingxiu turned around, and then froze.

At some point, the maid behind him was gone.

Shen Lingxiu suddenly had an ominous premonition in her heart.

It seems that this is the trouble that the little concubine deliberately gave her. Shen Lingxiu squinted her eyes, looking at the dark road ahead, feeling very tired.

In any case, it is impossible to turn back now, so I can only go forward.

Thinking of this, Shen Lingxiu continued to walk forward.

"Are you sure she's going in that direction?" The concubine sat on a chair and took a sip of the tea in her hand.

The maid nodded, "Yes, it's definitely true." ”

"Okay, that's good." After speaking, the concubine waved her hand and asked the maid to give some rewards.

She hooked the corners of her mouth slightly, imagining the scene of Shen Lingxiu being arrested by that group of people, and she was in a particularly happy mood.

"Hey, brothers, are you ready?"

The person at the front held up the big axe in his hand and whispered to the person behind.

They are hiding in the grass, waiting for the impending prey.

"Of course it's ready, when will she come over."

"Just be patient and wait a little longer, surely this is the right path."

The men lurked there, staring at the intersection.

At this time, Shen Lingxiu walked through the grass and appeared outside the grass.

Shen Lingxiu looked around, but she didn't know where this was.

This is a problem, and in this situation, she will definitely not be able to go back before dark.

I don't know if Lin Ziwen will come out to look for her, but there are still Mu and Ah Bao at home, and he can't leave regardless of it.

Just when Shen Lingxiu was thinking seriously, he didn't notice those people in the grass at all.

They looked at Shen Lingxiu, the corners of their mouths raised, as if they saw the prey that was bound to win.

Just as they were about to rush out and grab Shen Lingxiu, there was a sound from the other side.

The axe man raised his hand to calm the people behind him for a while, and then looked in that direction like Shen Lingxiu.

Just when Shen Lingxiu was worried, Yuwen Tuo appeared.

She was stunned for a moment, and she was a little relieved to see her acquaintances at this time.

"Why are you here?" Shen Lingxiu walked up to him and said with a smile.

"I'm lost." Yuwen Tuo looked at Shen Lingxiu and lied a little.

But Shen Lingxiu believed it, after all, she was also lost.

"That's a coincidence, let's find a way together, right?"

Yuwen Tuo nodded and left with Shen Lingxiu.

Just before he left, he glanced in the direction of the grass, and then followed Shen Lingxiu.

The people in the grass felt cold, and they didn't dare to chase after them anymore.

With the seemingly unintentional help of Yuwen Tuo, Shen Lingxiu finally found a place to stay.

It stands to reason that Yuwen Tuo should leave now.

However, looking at Shen Lingxiu, he swallowed back his farewell words.

"I, I'm a little drunk, let's stay here today."

Yuwentuo blushed a little embarrassed, and Shen Lingxiu believed it.
