The houses in Qinghe Town extend in all directions, and after each alley is drilled out, it is often unknown where it goes.

He Mai pulled the uncle who picked up dung on the side of the road and asked for directions, and when he arrived at the intersection of Fuyuan Road and Yanzi Road, he saw four houses at the intersection, and hesitated but didn't know how to find the house where Liulang's cousin Hu Guangsheng was.

He Mai had to think of a stupid way, knocking on the door of the family and asking?

One of the two houses to the north has a large open door, and the sound of children playing and shouting can be heard from inside.

The other house has a closed door, and in front of it are two abandoned silkworm shelves, which seem to be ordinary households. He Mai stepped forward and knocked on the door, but did not hear any movement in the courtyard, it seems that there is no one in this family.

The two houses on the south side have a south-facing gate, and if you want to knock on the door, you have to go around to the south.

He Mai stood next to the silkworm shelf next to the house in the north, and before he left, he unexpectedly saw a person, Chang Shen.

Chang Shen is Liulang's brother, he has been to Yang's house many times before, and when he dealt with He Miao's incident later, he also helped a lot, and he was naturally familiar with He Mai.

How did he end up here?

He Mai knew that many of Liulang's brothers were working in the town, so it was not surprising to see Chang Shen here.

But the strange thing is that it is a bit of a coincidence to see Chang Shen at the intersection of this place.

Chang Shen was carrying a few food boxes in his hand, and it seemed that he should be going somewhere to bring food.

He didn't notice the peeking of the wheat, and he carried the food box, and seemed to be in a good mood to move forward. He Mai hesitated, and lightly followed Chang Shen's steps.

When he arrived at the entrance of the house in the south, He Mai hid in a small alley opposite, poked his head out, and saw Chang Shen knocking on the door of a house, someone opened the door, he dodged in, and the door was quickly closed.

The wall of the house is two wheat high, standing under the wall of the house, He Mai hesitated and hesitated, his heart was horizontal, he simply climbed the wall, and quietly showed his head to see the scene inside.

It used to be a yard for slaughtering animals.

In the seemingly small house, there is nothing special, and several hanging cattle and sheep have been disemboweled, waiting for further processing.

In one of the pens were a few pigs and sheep waiting to be slaughtered, making a low muffled scream.

A thin black man was opening a fence and preparing to get a sheep out of it.

"Uncle Cousin, don't be busy, eat!" Chang Shen under the simple shed in the corner of the courtyard greeted the man.

He Mai's eyes were locked on the man who was shouting at his cousin, and he carefully examined his face.

That's Liulang's cousin, Hu Guangsheng? The black and thin appearance is not surprising, and the easy-going smile on his face is somewhat similar to Rokuro.

Hu Guangsheng answered, trotted down to the shed, took off his gloves and wiped the sweat on his face with a thick linen apron, took the cake handed over by Chang Shen, and ate it in a big gulp.

"Uncle Cousin, have a chicken leg!" Chang Shen broke off the largest chicken leg and handed it to Hu Guangsheng.

The other man sitting at the table, He Mai, had a little face, but he was probably also a worker here.

After a meal, He Mai did not see Hu Guangsheng's unhappy and depressed life here, as Hong Daquan said, but saw Chang Shen and another worker taking care of Hu Guangsheng.

The three of them ate quickly, and after eating, Hu Guangsheng was about to go to work, Chang Shen stopped him, said nothing, put on the thick linen apron and gloves that Hu Guangsheng took off, and went to catch sheep in the fence.

He Mai was watching, and suddenly heard the footsteps of people walking on the side, startled, hurriedly jumped off the wall, turned over a few times, and the figure disappeared without a trace.

Lijiazhuang, Yongan Town

Lin Hemiao, who had just served Li Zheng and left, stood up from the side of the bed, and angrily called the maid to fetch water to prepare, she wanted to bathe.

Even after soaking in the hot water, she still felt tired and sore, and there was an indescribable discomfort and nausea all over her body.

The maid came over to beat her back and pinch her shoulders, but she found an excuse at random and scolded her.

The maid came in again, and before she could get closer, she was hit on the forehead by a candlestick that Lin Hemiao picked up casually, and a sharp and harsh voice sounded: "Cheap thing, I said that you are not allowed to come in and bother me, are my words in my ears!?" ”

"Madam, it's Li Guang who came to deliver the news." The maid knelt down aggrievedly and said.

"Li Guang?" Lin Hemiao's angry face stretched a little, "Someone else is here?" ”

"Here, wait in the small hall." The maid replied timidly.

Lin Hemiao thought for a moment, and soon started a fire at the maid again, "What are you doing in a daze?" Don't come and dress me! ”

"Yes......"

After Lin Hemiao finished dressing up, he summoned Li Guang to the pavilion in the side courtyard to spread the word.

The pavilion is built in an extremely luxurious and magnificent manner, and any decorative bead in the bead curtain is worth a year's ration for ordinary people.

Li Guang stood outside the bead curtain, he was tall and thin, and on his fair face, the pair of thief eyes kept staring at Lin Hemiao inside.

Lin Hemiao asked lightly through the bead curtain that was blown by the wind, "What did you find in Xiangcheng?" ”

"Madam, it's been a long time, and it's really difficult to find someone with just a handkerchief......" Li Guang replied with a bowed head.

"That's no news?" Lin Hemiao looked at the figure outside the curtain with displeasure, and frowned.

The maid shuddered, she knew that this was a sign that Lin Hemiao was going to be angry and scolded the beater.

"The little one is not here to report the news from Xiangcheng!" Li Guang said busily.

"Madame trusts the little one, and hands over everything to the small one to deal with the report, and the little one is grateful. It's this, it's ......" Li Guang's eyes turned to the maid next to Lin Hemiao's figure, and his voice had some other meaning, "Madame, can it be easier to listen to the little talk?" ”

Lin Hemiao hesitated and waved his hand, "You all go down." ”

"Yes." One by one, the maids left the pavilion as if they had been pardoned.

Li Guang saw that the maid was almost gone, and opened the bead curtain and wanted to go in, but saw Lin Hemiao stopping, "Just say it outside, others can't hear it." ”

Li Guangbian flattened his mouth and slowly retreated to Fang Cai's position.

"Lin Hemai, that woman went to the house we were staring at in the next day, and the mountain and the river bumped into her with their own eyes, running as fast as a rabbit, it seems that she was afraid of being seen."

"It seems that Yang Liulang really didn't tell her about her cousin?" Lin Hemiao asked unexpectedly, with a hint of sarcasm in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows.

"Exactly!" The expression on Li Guang's face gradually became casual, "However, there are people there all the time, and we won't have time to bring his cousin out, right?" ”

"Sooner or later, there will be a chance," Lin Hemiao snorted lazily, and under the light of the candlelight in the pavilion, she lazily fiddled with her nails, "Did you tell the staff about this?" ”

"Got it." Li Guang hurriedly bowed his head, "Didn't you also check the news of Yang Liulang's house outside the staff?" It's tight over there, so I'm ......."
