Du Ruo glanced around, except for the crackling sound of the burning wood left in the stove, and the boiling sound of soup in the cauldron, the rest was silent.

She was very uncomfortable with her hands tied behind her back for a long time, and she moved, and moved to the side again.

They didn't finish the things in the pot, and after boiling for so long, it is estimated that the bones are crispy, and the meat can easily be separated from the bones when you bite into it, and it is fat but not greasy. Although she ate at night, she smelled the smell of meat and became hungry again.

After another half an hour, her legs were numb, but no one came, and Du Ruo gradually lost his patience.

Is it true that there is something in the words, is it true to arrest her? Song Ju'an put her along? Her heart sank.

Du Ruo supported the rope with his hand and wanted to untie it, but he heard someone behind him: "Little lady, do you want me to help you untie the rope?" ā€

Du Ruo turned around in astonishment and found a strange man standing behind her, bending over and looking at her with a grin.

She tried to scream, but the man suddenly changed his face, clamped her chin with one hand, and quickly gagged her mouth with something with the other.

This man is a thief! She snorted, but couldn't spit out what was in her mouth.

The man straightened up and said to the man who was hiding in the darkness not far away: "Come out!" There's no one here, just a fake 'thief' who has been kidnapped! ā€

As soon as the words fell, two other people came over, except for the one who was slightly cleaner, these two people's clothes were in tatters, their hair was scattered, their faces were black and they couldn't distinguish their faces, and they had a bad smell on their bodies, and they didn't know how many days they hadn't taken a bath.

Du Ruoxin said, it turns out that there are three of them!

As soon as the two came out, they hurriedly went to remove the lid of the pot, as if they hadn't eaten for several days.

"Good fellows! There's so much meat left! ā€

"Come and eat! After eating, there are still women playing! ā€

They devoured the meat and soup, and they hadn't stolen anything good for the past two days, and they couldn't imagine that they would be able to pick up such a big bargain tonight.

A person raised his hand and threw the gnawed bones in front of Du Ruo, "Little lady! Eat or not! The man asked with a crooked smile, a pair of thief eyes drizzling around her.

"This village is full of stupid people! Tie up such a nice woman and still be here! ā€

"How do you know she's okay?"

"You're blind, you can't see?"

"By the way, does the little lady know about a person named Song Ju'an in your village?"

"People can't speak!"

"Forgot!"

Du Ruo looked at them expressionlessly, her hands kept twisting behind her back, and she didn't know how Song Ju'an tied it, although it was loose, it was not so easy to tear it apart, so she had to calm down and take it slowly.

Just as she was grinding off a loop of rope and finally pulling her hands out of it, she suddenly saw a figure jump down from the date tree she was leaning on before, and the speed was extremely fast.

This situation suddenly reminded her of the time when she and Song Ju'an went to Dahe Village to find the goddess, she was sitting under the locust tree at the entrance of the village, and there was also a person hiding on the tree, wanting to kill her, and asking her if she was Du Rulan.

The person who fell to the ground didn't move much, and when he stood up, Du Ruo was stunned to find that he was actually Han Liang! Her expression suddenly became complicated.

Was the person who was going to kill her at the entrance of the village that day Han Liang? But his relationship with the Song family is so good, thinking of this, she has to think of Song Ju'an.

The three thieves who stole things were eating happily, and they didn't want anyone to get close, and when they found out that there was one more person, Han Liang had already thrown the person out in the next second with a collar in one hand.

The third person reacted faster, knocked the bowl on the pot, his face was ruthless, pinched a piece of shard and wiped it into Han Liang's neck, Han Liang dodged sideways, and when he saw him close, Han Liang held his neck with one hand and walked a few steps quickly to push him onto the big iron pot, the thief howled, the fragment in his hand fell to the ground, and he struggled with his hands and feet.

At this time, many villagers ran out from the surroundings, each holding a hoe, a kitchen knife and a wooden stick in their hands, and greeted the three thieves one after another.

"The thief has been caught!" Someone shouted.

Du Ruo got up from the ground a little tiredly, rubbed his wrist, turned his head to look, and found that Song Ju'an was walking at the back calmly, as if everything was in his expectation.

She suddenly had a trace of fear in her heart, what kind of person is he?

The three thieves were tied to a tree by the villagers, and the ropes were so dense that they were about to strangle them.

Du Ruo also took a few steps closer to watch, and at this time everyone's emotions were very excited, and they kicked them relentlessly, venting their accumulated anger.

There was nothing to do with her here, Du Ruo wanted to turn around and leave, but saw Song Ju'an standing beside her, also looking at the crowd.

"If they didn't come to steal the food, you left me here all night?" She asked.

"You won't spend the night here in vain, you'll go." He was determined.

Du Ruo stopped talking.

"I want to see Song Ju'an from your village......" a thief said weakly with his mouth open.

"Stay safe! He wants to see you! The villagers shouted.

Song Ju'an squeezed to the front, "You know me?" What is there to say? ā€

Although the thief's face was covered with blood, when he looked at him, he suddenly smiled, "You are closer!" I'm just talking to you! ā€

"Ju'an, be careful that he bites your ear!" Someone reminded.

"Just say it in front of everyone!" Song Ju'an said.

"No...... It's boring to say it to everyone, I'm only telling you one person, do you know a person surnamed Xiao? "The thief was weak, but he seemed to be saying something funny, and he looked fearless.

Although Du Ruo was standing outside the crowd, he could hear it clearly, and he was a little curious.

Song Ju'an glanced at everyone and leaned his ears over to listen to him.

The thief whispered a few words to him, and Song Ju'an stood up straight, and said calmly: "Although I have dealt with the county master, my status is humble, and I can't intercede for you, it's useless for you to buy your life and look for me, I haven't seen that friend surnamed Xiao for many years, he may be able to save you, but he is not here." Then he turned to everyone and said, "It's too late, let's go back to sleep!" Now that they have been caught, they will be handed over to the yamen tomorrow! ā€

And when they heard this, they went to their homes.

Although the corners of the thief's mouth couldn't stop bleeding, he looked at Song Ju'an and smiled extremely arrogantly.

"Brother Song, does this thief need to be watched?" Han Liang walked over and asked.

"No need, go back!" After speaking, he turned around and walked towards Du Ruo, "Go home." He said.

Du Ruo glanced at the three thieves again, the person who was still laughing was furious, and she didn't know why she was laughing, she turned around hesitantly, and walked forward with a heavy heart.

Song Ju'an took two steps, suddenly looked at Han Liang, and gave him a sharp look.

Early the next morning, Du Ruo learned from Wang Pozi that the three thieves were dead.

"Everyone is too heavy, they didn't hold on, and as soon as the morning dawned, someone came over to take a look, and they all swallowed their breath!" Mrs. Wang said to Cai's family.

"Will the government pursue it?! There are a lot of people who start beating people! Who is the yamen arresting? You can't take all the people of a village, can you? Cai asked.

"Then who knows! Anyway, I went home from eating last night and went to sleep, and I didn't go out! Mrs. Wang said proudly.

Du Ruo always felt that something was wrong, although they were injured, but they were all skin injuries, they were fine when they left last night, how could they die?

In a forest outside Donggou Village.

Song Ju'an was bending down to measure a fallen dead wood with his hand, his expression was indifferent, and he looked a little careless.

Han Liang stood a few meters away, looking anxious, "Master! They've finally found it! ā€

"They just want to remind me through these three rogues that if they wanted to, they would have taken action a long time ago." Song Ju'an raised his foot and kicked it on the branch of the dead wood.

"Let's get out of here!" Han Liang said again.

"Okay." Song Ju'an responded, "But I have to go back with some dry firewood, otherwise it will make people suspicious if I don't do anything." ā€

"Master, I—I'm not talking about going back to the village! I mean leave Donggou Village! ā€

"What I told you that night, do you remember?" Song Ju'an glanced at him.

Han Liang reluctantly silenced.

Song Ju'an seemed to suddenly remember something, and said to him again: "Next time you go to the city, help my family buy a cow, and I will give you the silver tomorrow." ā€

Han Liang nodded silently.

The villagers of Donggou Village couldn't hold back their faces when they saw the Song family in the past two days, after all, they were clamoring to tear up the Song family, who knew that in the end, they really wronged Du's mother-in-law!

At that time, only a small number of people were informed of Song Ju'an's plan through the village chief, and most of them thought that Du Rulan was really a thief that night.

Du Shi was really wronged this time.

Du Ruo himself also knows, so every time he goes out, he looks at people's faces until he lowers his head.

She came back from Zhou Ning's mother-in-law's house with a sewing basket, and when she walked to the door of her house, she saw Song Ju'an coming back from another direction with firewood.

He piled the dry firewood on the side of the wall, turned around and followed Du Ruo, who pushed the door open, and walked in, seeing the things in her basket, he reached out and picked it up, and couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth when he looked at it.

Du Ruo snatched it back and threw it into the basket.

"Okay." He commented on the embroidery.

Du Ruo's face was a little panicked, but he said stiffly: "Who can do it well from the beginning?" It's good to just learn to embroider like this. ā€

"Well, that's good."

Du Ruo: "......"

Walking into the house, Du Ruo sat down and recalled in her mind the embroidery needles she had learned, and Zhou Ning's mother-in-law taught her more than forty kinds, and she almost memorized them all, although the embroidery was a mess.

She took another book from the shelf and glanced at it casually.

"How do you recognize the words?" Song Ju'an sat on the other side and looked at her.

"Okay."

Song Ju'an: "......"

"Now that you can read through, you will be able to write a splendid article in a short time." He said neither salty nor light.

"It's just looking at the picture, I don't recognize any of the words, Anlang is teaching me now?" She opened her eyes and said nonsense, but she couldn't hear the sarcasm in his words.

"Another day." He said, teaching and teaching is also a lot of one move.

On the second day, Du Ruo was going to Yunshui Embroidery Village to do things again.

After breakfast, she brought some dry food and walked to the head of the village, where the seventh brother was waiting for her in a car, and when he saw her coming, he raised his hand at her.

When Du Ruo approached again, he looked behind Du Ruo and raised his hand again to greet him.

Du Ruo turned around suspiciously, and found that Song Ju'an was also walking towards this side.
