Du's body was washed away by the rushing river, which is also a very reasonable explanation.

Fengling County is so big, it is not so easy to meet a person, and moving from the city to the east and north of the city is a way. Wait for a while and she will come out.

If Uncle Liu goes to a distant relative, she may be able to really leave here!

Besides, she is somewhat similar to Liu Yujiao, and even Aunt Ding admitted her mistake on the day she entered the city. Liu Yujiao lingered on the bed for a long time and didn't go out, and the neighborhood rarely saw her, so why not replace the real with the fake?

As she wrote the letter, her heart was beating fast.

The only things she couldn't let go of were Du Ercheng and Su Mingyang, but Du Ercheng couldn't let Du Ercheng know about this matter, so she had to tell Su Mingyang. When the dust settles, contact again, lest he really think that he is dead.

After writing the letter, Du Ruo took the letter and blew it, and listened carefully to the movement outside the door.

I don't know what the tube is washing, but there is a sound of water in the yard.

When a person dies, the government will naturally come to inquire about how she is on weekdays, and she will have to explain to the government one by one. Thinking of this, she opened the door and walked out, and said sadly: "Xiaoguan, I don't want to live......"

Xiao Guan was wringing wet clothes, and was startled when he heard her words, and stood up straight and said, "Sister Du, what's wrong with you?" Yesterday was fine, but today is not normal all day, either dead or alive! ”

"I saw a man today, and I remembered the sins I had suffered before, and I felt that there was no point in living......" she sighed, "go to bed early, and I will think about it again." She turned and went back to her room.

Xiao Guan stood in the courtyard and said loudly to her: "Sister Du, if you are sad and sad and tell me, don't be bored alone!" ”

Du Ruo returned to the room and sat for a while, and not long after, someone knocked on the door of the shop in front of him.

Xiao Guan went to open the door and ran to her: "Sister Du, Aunt Ding is here later!" ”

Du Ruo hurriedly got up and walked out, and saw Aunt Ding, Aunt Ding's eyes were swollen from crying, and when he saw her, he took her hand and sat down.

"Don't be here, go to bed!" Du Ruo pulled him apart.

Xiao Guan answered, turned and went back to the backyard.

"Auntie, what are you talking to Uncle Liu?" She hurriedly asked.

Aunt Ding wiped her eyes, let out a long sigh, and held her hand tightly and said: "Miss Du, don't think I'm troublesome, I also told a few people close to the Liu family about this, the big guy sat down together and discussed, I think you are reliable, since Yujiao is already like this, Changmao is old and no one is supporting, so I follow your method!" ”

Du Ruo's clenched heart was relaxed, but he was still nervous: "Those few people who know are still reliable?" ”

"Reliable, I won't say it!"

Du Ruo nodded, took out the letter written to Su Mingyang in his cuff, and said, "Since this is the case, let's cut through the mess quickly, and I will go to the government to report the case tomorrow." Su Gongzi, you have seen him, he is busy with schoolwork, he hasn't been here for a few days, and it will be inconvenient for me to see him after tomorrow, when will he give him this letter. ”

Aunt Ding took it, "Okay." ”

The two of them talked for a while, and they got the details right.

On the second day, Du Ruo got up early, quietly sent some silver and a few pieces of clothes to Ding's house, and came back to have a meal with Xiaoguan with a sigh of concern.

The shop, the yard, and the house were almost the same as usual, nothing had changed, everything seemed to be an unpremeditated death.

"Xiaoguan, I'm in a bad mood, go for a walk outside the city, relax, you watch the shop at home!" Du Ruo instructed him.

"Okay, Sister Du, you go early and come back early!"

Du Ruo went out, walked along the long street, walked a long distance, turned into another street, went to a ready-to-wear store to buy a men's dress, walked into an inn and changed it, his hair was tied up, his eyebrows were thicker, and he wiped his face with black powder, and looked almost there, before he walked out of it.

On the way to the Yamen, she had already thought of a rhetoric in her heart.

When he arrived nearby, Du Ruo adjusted his mood, put on a panicked face, and quickly stepped forward and said to the official guarding the door: "I'll report the case!" Outside the city there are drowned again! ”

The official glanced at her, "You come with me!" As he spoke, he led her into a class room, and said to the two or three people sitting inside: "This kid said that there are dead people outside the city, come and report the crime!" ”

Du Ruo hurriedly bowed his hand to them and said, "Xiaomin went out of the city to visit friends this morning, and saw a woman standing by the water crying. My friend and I went forward to inquire and learned that she was the daughter-in-law of the Song family in Donggou Village, named Du Rulan, and said that she couldn't live anymore, so we comforted her a few words and persuaded her to go home. We didn't go far before we saw her jump off the shore. The river is turbulent, and we saw her being swept away by the water, presumably because of the bad luck, Xiaomin came to report the case! ”

"Dead again?! That's a dozen or so dead! If you let the master know, you will be angry! A catcher snapped the table.

"yes, this one still jumped off by himself, what a mess!"

"There are not many dead people in the surrounding counties, if it is spread out, it is not a joke that we Fengling County is not effective in water control?!"

"Every year there are a few deaths in the spring flood, and this year there are inevitably more deaths!"

"I'll have to go out of the city to do errands later, and I guess I will let our brothers do hard work!"

Du Ruo stood there and listened to a few quick catchers complaining, but he couldn't grasp the point.

"Xiaomin thinks that since she is dead, she has to inform her family as soon as possible, she said that she is from Donggou Village, her name is Du Rulan!" Du Ruo repeated.

Catch quickly then complained: "We have to mobilize us to fish for corpses everywhere!" ”

"How do I sound so familiar with this name? Donggou Village's? ”

"Alright, okay, got it! You go back first! A catcher waved his hand impatiently at Du Ruo.

Du Ruo shook his hands, turned around and walked out.

Walking out of the yamen, she felt a little relieved. Presumably nine times out of ten.

At this time, a carriage stopped outside the gate of the county government, and a person leaned on the carriage. Du Ruo glanced at the man as he walked, and found that she and he had met him on the Sixiang Bridge when it was raining yesterday, and he was still nosy and persuaded her not to seek death.

Du Ruo retracted her gaze and continued to walk forward, and after walking a few steps, she heard the man pointing at her and saying dissatisfiedly: "Why does a manly man look so delicate?!" The steps under her feet are broken like a girl! ”

Du Ruo glanced at him and continued to walk forward.

However, the man strode towards her, "What about you! ”

Du Ruo stopped and said unhappily: "What's the matter with this big brother?" Don't you look like you're breaking the law? ”

"Don't break the law, make it disgusting!" He walked up to her with his hands on his chest, looked at her with disgust, his nose moved, and suddenly his eyes widened and he said in surprise: "You are a woman!" ”

"The law does not say that a woman cannot wear men's clothes." Du Ruobai glanced at him.

Yesterday was nosy, today is still nosy, this person is really idle!

At this time, several catchers walked out of the yamen with knives and stood aside, all with solemn expressions, holding their breath, thinking a lot, looking at the person who came out from behind, and arched their hands and said, "Master Song!" ”

A catcher quickly followed: "Just now the people came to report that a woman outside the city jumped into the river and died, and several of the subordinates were confused for a while, and when they left, they suddenly remembered that the person who jumped into the river seemed to be ...... It seems to be your wife, master? ”

Song Ju'an's movement of lifting the curtain and getting into the carriage stopped.

The man standing in front of Du Ruo looked at her with interest, but when he saw Song Ju'an coming out of the yamen and was about to board the carriage, he shouted, "Master Song, let's go now?" ”

Du Ruo looked at his line of sight strangely, and when he saw that the person standing in front of the carriage was Song Ju'an, his soul was scattered for a moment, and his heart almost stopped beating.

When did this guy become the master of the yamen?! Didn't he say he wouldn't go into the city?

Wu Dajiang invited him several times, but he refused to go to the yamen to do business! Aren't you going to guard those three broken tile houses and a few acres of land?!

She hurriedly turned around and walked forward, and a catcher behind her said loudly: "It's the kid who reported the case!" Said he saw it with his own eyes! ”

"Catch him!" Song Ju'an commanded loudly.

The next moment, Du Ruo's clothes were grabbed by the man who had just accosted her, and said to her, "Don't go, tell you to stop!" ”

Du Ruo's head was full of roars, and he felt that he must have done a great evil in his previous life.

It must have killed many, many people, a great scourge, the kind that harmed the common people!

She was dragged to the front of the carriage, Song Ju'an had already sat in the carriage, slowly shaking a landscape fan in her hand, her face was gloomy like never before, as if she was in the cold winter, which made people tremble at a glance.

Du Ruo glanced up at him, and then turned his head to look at the other side expressionlessly.

"Tell Master Song what you just said in the yamen again!" A catcher said to her.

The other catchers stood in front of the carriage, and when they saw this situation, they arched their hands and said to Song Ju'an: "Master Song, the festival is changing!" ”

"Condolences change!"

"Condolences change!"

Du Ruo: "......"

"Call her up!" Song Ju'an opened his mouth and said to the man who grabbed Du Ruo.

"Huh?" The man was very puzzled, but still looked at Du Ruo: "Tell you to sit up!" ”

"If there's anything going on, please tell me here......" Du Ruo said.

"Do you come up, or do you go to prison?" Song Ju'an asked her.

"......" She had no choice but to climb into the carriage under the gaze of everyone.

The man who had taken her sat down with him.

Song Ju'an said to the few people standing below: "You guys go out of the city first, I have something to deal with." ”

Those people looked at each other, not knowing what the situation was, but they still responded.

"Go to the tailor's shop at the end of Yi Street, the boss's surname is Du." And he commanded the coachman.

The horses were urged to pull the carriage forward.

Du Ruo knew that he recognized her, but he didn't know what he meant.

She glanced at Song Ju'an, his expression was still cold, his eyes were even darker, shaking a fan, the small carriage could not contain his cold body, she felt goosebumps, and she didn't have any specific thoughts in her heart for a while......

The big deal is death.

But where is this worth his anger? Although Du Rulan's death or not can't be said to have nothing to do with him, it doesn't have much to do with it.

But
