Lin Changxi family.

Zhao was lying on the bed, a bowl of sugar water was placed at the head of the bed, and Zhao's sister Zhao Xiaosan sat next to Zhao and swallowed melon seeds, and asked, "What did the nephew of the old Lin family say?" Will Pixiu give it to you? ”

"I haven't let go yet!" Zhao closed his eyes and said, "This little calf is very easy to handle on weekdays, how can he be so concerned about a piece of broken jade?" ”

"Hmph, did the vixen tell him something? As soon as the two of them are in the bed all day long, the girl blows the wind on the pillow, and maybe she will ......"

Zhao's eyes opened suddenly, and he spat on the ground, "No, it won't!" That stinky bitch doesn't have that guts! How dare she say? Lend her ten guts! ”

"Maybe it's ......," Zhao Xiaosan muttered.

"Third sister, you don't care about this matter," Zhao was not happy to see his sister's distrustful appearance, and felt that she was a little too much, "Why did you come to me again if you have nothing to do today?" ”

"Isn't it for the sake of the seedlings! Didn't you say I'll give you a rich man in town? I found it! It's an outsider, it's ...... It's a bit old. ”

"Outside? How rich? Zhao's eyes lit up, and silver shone in them.

"Particularly rich......" Zhao Xiaosan's words were not finished, and suddenly he heard someone knocking on the door.

"Who?"

"Xu Langzhong!" The voice outside the door responded in a deep voice.

"Hey, Lang Zhong is here, open the door!" Zhao urged his sister.

"The doctor is here." Zhao Xiaosan opened the door and saw Xu Jiang outside the door hurriedly grinning.

"Hmm." Xu Jiang nodded, glanced inside, and his eyes flashed.

Three days later, Rokuro returns from town with news about Xiu'er.

There is no household registration of Xiu'er in the town at all, but according to the woman's appearance provided by Rokuro, it is in line with the characteristics of another Qinglou woman named Hongyue.

Liulang told He Mai about the news he had found, and among them, there was another thing, that is, the so-called gambling house debts, which were fake.

I don't know what means this Hongyue used, but she joined forces with the guys in the gambling house to deceive a poor scholar, so that He Lin stupidly paid off Xiu'er's debts and ransomed.

Lin Hemai, who knew the news, couldn't suppress his anger, and rushed out of the door of the inner room and went straight to the small thatched courtyard where He Lin lived.

Xiu'er was not in the thatched courtyard, but He Lin was squatting in the courtyard where there was sunlight, washing two women's clothes.

"Sister, what's wrong?"

Faced with the sudden intrusion of Hemai, He Lin wiped the water droplets on his face, stunned and didn't know what was happening.

"Xiu'er." He Mai asked.

"Oh, oh......" He Lin stood up and shook his wet hands, "Today...... It's the day to pay off her debts, and she's going to town. ”

He Mai's heart tightened, "She went to town?" Did she go to town to pay off her debts? ”

He Lin nodded and sighed wistfully, "Yes, we can breathe a sigh of relief if we know about this matter earlier." ”

"And where do you get your money?" He Mai stared at He Lin, "Should you ......?"

"I'll give Pixiu to Xiu'er and let her go to the pawnshop first," He Lin replied softly, not daring to look directly into He Mai's eyes, "When we have enough money in the future, we will redeem it......"

"Ransom !!" He Mai angrily shouted, "You have been deceived, big fool!! ”

"What?" He Lin looked at He Mai with a pair of ignorant eyes, "Sister, you ......"

"Do you know who Xiu'er is?" He Mai looked at He Lin angrily and funny, "You don't know anything at all, Xiu'er's name and identity are all fake!" ”

"How come," He Lin scratched his head in embarrassment, "This is impossible, I didn't tell you ......"

"She said she was an orphan woman with no father and no mother, and she said that, you didn't even check it to believe it?"

He Lin coughed lightly, "She won't lie to me." Sister, I know you have a lot of prejudices about Xiu'er, now we have changed our residences, she is not used to it, so she has a bad temper and is lazy, didn't I do all the work she should do? Now that we've moved to the thatched courtyard, it's not in your way, you ......."

"It's not a matter of being in the way of the eyes," He Mai was really helpless in the face of He Lin, who was in love with him, "Your woman, everything is fake, even if you call her name every day, it's fake." I ask you, she said she owed money, and the debt collector belonged to the gambling house? Did you see Xiu'er go to the gambling house with your own eyes? ”

He Lin was stunned, "This ...... No. After being with me, Xiu'er naturally changed her ways, and I advised her not to go to that kind of mixed place, and she obeyed. ”

He Mai let out a cold snort from his nose, "Fool! It's a trap from start to finish, you've been deceived! ”

She gritted her teeth and asked, "How long has Xiu'er been gone?" ”

"Half an hour." He Lin replied honestly.

When He Mai heard this, he hurriedly wanted to go out, but when he turned around, he saw He Lin standing in the yard, still carrying a wrung out of his clothes and motionless, he was really angry and distressed.

"She's going to the pawnshop in town, why don't you go?"

"She said that this was something she provoked, and she could just solve it herself, and she wouldn't let me go." He Mai snorted.

He Mai's eyes cracked, "You ...... Never mind! Just wait, she won't be back! ”

Lin Helin saw that Hemai turned around and went to the east, and after a while, he and Liulang took an ox cart and went in the direction outside the village.

The breeze blew on his face, Lin Helin felt a shiver, he looked up at the hot sun in the sky, and he was dizzy.

……

……

Xiu'er has never been to the pawnshop in the town, and Lin Changxi's house in the village has not moved, and the surrounding areas of the pawnshop have carefully inquired about the small vendors on the side of the road, but they have never seen Xiu'er pass by.

He Mai furrowed her eyebrows, "Where can this woman go?" Could it be that if you take Pixiu and go to the roadside bento? ”

"Impossible," Yang Liulang shook his head affirmatively, "According to the preciousness of the Jade Pixiu, it is very unlikely that she will do this, and the risk is too great, she must have found another place to hide, and then go to the pawnshop after the rumors have passed." ”

Seeing that He Mai still looked puzzled, he comforted: "Don't worry, Dacheng and Ma Er, these brothers are in the town, and there is no problem in taking care of one person." Let's also find a day, go back first, and if there is news, the brothers will come to deliver the letter. ”

Liulang's words Hemai naturally believed it, sighed listlessly for a while, and got on the ox cart when he came, and returned to Xiaoqing Village.

The time is too unlucky, the front foot just learned the identity of this Xiu'er, and the back foot Xiu'er deceived Pixiu and ran away without a trace.

Could it be ...... She didn't leave the village at all?

He Mai sat up with a spirit, and became more and more convinced of his own judgment: if Xiu'er left the village, she would definitely attract the attention of the villagers. But no one saw Xiu'er at all, perhaps, she didn't leave the village at all!
