Chapter 231: Deliberately Spread the News
Early the next morning, Liulang went to Lijiazhuang to inquire about the movements of the Li Mansion.
Although Li Zheng's group is ruthless and not a good person, but now that the Lin family has Lin Hemiao in the Li Mansion, the Qin family has to worry about it.
In the early morning, the market is still as lively as ever, when the sky is slightly bright, the street of Changting in the market is full of the aroma and heat of food, and the villagers who come to buy breakfast stand in front of the stalls shaking the fans and line up.
There were a few guests eating steamed buns sitting in front of Hemai's stall, and Wang, who was not far away, shouted at her: "Sister Hemai, you can't be busy and squeak!" ”
He Mai nodded in thanks, feeling a little embarrassed, so he took a basket of fried meat buns to Wang's stall and invited them to eat.
On weekdays, Li Changan was here, and she didn't think he was important, but when Li Changan didn't see her, she realized that this kid had pulled a lot of business for the porridge bun shop for a while! As soon as this business is good, Hemai is naturally too busy to be alone, and now that Li Changan is nowhere to be seen, she naturally feels struggling.
When Liulang came to pick her up in Xiaoshi, he told her that Lijiazhuang was heavily guarded, but according to his inquiries about the doorman of the Li Mansion, he said that yesterday's incident did not affect Li Zheng and Lin Hemiao, and this person was handed over, and the government naturally would not embarrass them much.
He Mai breathed a sigh of relief and dropped the big stone in his heart for the Qin family, but he seemed a little hesitant again, "Liulang, when will it be convenient for you to go to the Li Mansion?" Yesterday, my grandmother told me that she wanted to see He Miao......"
Rokuro's face flashed a hint of strangeness, and he hesitated, "Now?" I'm afraid, it's not a good time. ”
"Not now, but in a while." He Mai said, "Since that side a year ago, He Miao has not shown up. Even if we don't care much about it, but after all, she is *** granddaughter, and grandma misses her very much, see if you can say something......"
"It's not difficult to talk for a while...... Rokuro hesitated, pursed his lips and said to Hemai, "Okay, I have this in mind." ”
He Mai replied softly, turned his head and went to his cheeks and sighed in his heart.
God knows, she didn't worry about Lin Hemiao's life or death, good or bad, if it weren't for the old lady's emotions, she wouldn't even want to mention this name! Not to mention that I always have to ask Liulang to find out Lin Hemiao's news and a little talk.
When will the Qin family be able to completely break Lin Hemiao's heart knot......
……
……
The next day, Li Changan was still nowhere to be seen in the porridge bun shop.
On the contrary, Zhang Kuo sat comfortably on Hemai's stall, eating steamed buns while listening to Wang's news about Hemai in the recent town.
"The green buildings in that town have all been sealed, and what Ruyue Lou hides in the Jiao Pavilion has been seized by Lord Du with soldiers and horses! The people who sold their bodies and sold their artists were all brought back to the county government and interrogated one by one! ”
"Why did you bring it back to the county government for interrogation? Isn't there a daughter in there, just by looking at it?" He Mai asked curiously.
Hearing He Mai's question, Wang slapped his thigh and said in a full voice: "It's because there is no that I want to bring these people back to the yamen!" ”
She said with great devotion: "Lord Nadu searched the entire Qinglou, but he did not find his daughter. But I heard that the trafficker insisted that all the girls were sold into the Qinglou, and none of them died or escaped, so they could only search in the Qinglou! But no, what can I do? I can only gather these people in the Qinglou in the past two years and let them look at the portraits. ”
"Oh......" He Mai suddenly replied, "I see......
"Sigh ......" Zhang Kuo, who was eating buns on the side, pouted his lips with a look of disdain.
Wang didn't care about Zhang Kuo's reaction, and then said with great emotion: "But the daughter of the Du family is really unlucky, she was born like a flower and jade, but she was kidnapped by such a thief, regardless of whether she has been selling her art or her body in the past two years, I am afraid that she has been guilty of a lot of crimes." ”
Before He Mai could speak, he saw Zhang Kuo snort lightly, "Suffer? Not necessarily, but it is possible to be happy! ”
Wang's eyes narrowed, "Zhang Jiesi, how do you say this?" Don't you know how famous women are now? It's higher than the sky, heavier than the mountains! Being taken captive by thieves is not a glorious thing. If it is replaced by a woman from an ordinary family, I am afraid that even if she is found, she will hang herself and kill herself, and she will have no face to see anyone! ”
He Mai also nodded regretfully, and like the Wang family, he sympathized with Du Mingcheng's daughter.
Zhang Kuo raised his eyebrows, noncommittal.
The business on the stall was not very busy, He Mai took a breath, went out of the shop and sat on the bench, saw that Zhang Kuo had not left, and asked: "Zhang Jiejie, why is he so kung fu today?" ”
Zhang Kuo smiled lazily and said: "Sitting in the house is also sitting, it is better to be here, and you can still listen to your gossip, which is also very interesting." ”
He Mai laughed, "You are a big man, don't do your own business, listen to our women's gossip, aren't you afraid of being laughed at?" ”
"Left and right, I'm also a demoted street division in your eyes, whoever likes to laugh at it, I don't care." Zhang Kuo stretched his waist, looking wanton and relaxed.
He Mai ignored him, cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks on the table, and scrubbed the table.
Zhang Kuo looked at her for a while, and suddenly said, "I saw you, Master Du, and Li Changan talking here that day, what did you say?" ”
"You see?" He Mai was stunned for a moment, and then replied to him, "I didn't say anything, Lord Du took out the portrait of his daughter and asked Li Changan if he had seen ......."
"Li Changan has seen it, and he remembered what the man who was with his daughter looked like, right?" Zhang Kuo stared at her and asked.
He Mai was puzzled, "How do you know?" ”
Zhang Kuo smiled, stood up slowly with his arms propped up, and said lazily: "Like you, you all happen to know." ”
He Mai was stunned.
"I heard that Lord Du was angry with a Tai Doctor because of the death of his children before, and the apprentice of the Tai Yi can't even step into Linjiang City half a step now?" Zhang Kuo suddenly mentioned this matter, as if he was inadvertent.
He Mai looked at him without words.
Zhang Kuo sighed, turned around and muttered in a low voice: "I don't know if Master Du will make up for the mistakes of the imperial doctor's apprentice......
He Mai looked at Zhang Kuo, whose every move was extremely abnormal, and he was puzzled in his heart, and was hesitating to catch up with him and ask for clarification, but suddenly heard Liulang's voice behind him, "He Mai! ”
"Rokuro, are you back?" He Mai turned his head, not expecting Rokuro to come back so quickly.
"Hmm." Rokuro nodded, grabbed Hemai's arm casually, but his eyes looked thoughtfully at Zhang Kuan's back.
