Chapter 444: Suspected of Running Away
Chapter 444 is suspected of running away
The second day was a cloudy day, although it did not rain, but compared to the heat and dryness of the previous period.
Guan Wen got up early in the morning, took a shovel to shovel and dump the muddy water that had accumulated in the yard, and went to the vegetable field to help the vegetable shelf that had been beaten crooked by the rain. After finishing this work, he went to the chicken shed to see if there was any rain leakage, and he really found a place, Guan Wen hurriedly moved straw to repair it, and felt that the roof was not thick enough in some places, so Guan Wen thickened the roof of the shed some more, so that it was stronger.
There is no sun, everyone's mood is better, Yang'er and Xiaokang are up and down in the attic, opening the small window of the attic and saying that it is not hot today, and it is very energetic to play.
Li Xin only smiled, scooped the hot water in the pot and mixed it with cold water to wash clothes.
It doesn't take long to be busy with these things, the men of the Gu family have already come to work, and the area behind the hall is busy and orderly.
After saying hello to Ah Mei, Li Xin stood at the slope and waited for Guan Wen.
Guan Wen was still wearing the clothes he wore when he was busy, walked up to Li Xin and pulled her, and said without saying anything: "You don't have to go......
He was afraid that Li Xin would have some conflict with Guan Zhicheng.
Li Xin smiled and said, "Anyway, I don't have anything to do, the weather is good today, I'll go for a walk." Li Xin said: "When the time comes, you ask you, I will listen to it on the side." ”
It's not that Li Xin wants to intervene to find out any news, she also believes that Guan Wen will definitely come back to tell her the result of asking Guan Zhicheng. She was just worried about Guan Wen, because she couldn't predict what Guan Zhicheng would say, and she couldn't predict whether Guan Wen would be angry.
The two of them went downhill and walked towards the west road, which is considered a road in the countryside, and cars and horses can cross it. The ground was still a little wet because of the rain last night, and the soles of my shoes were soon covered with a layer of mud, and they became heavier and heavier when I walked.
Guan Wen was holding a long piece of bamboo in his hand, which made Li Xin pause, and he bent down to scrape the mud off the soles of her feet with the bamboo piece. Then she lifted her foot and gently scraped the mud off the soles of her feet.
It's a lot easier to walk that way.
Li Xin smiled and said, "If there is a slate on this, it won't be so difficult to walk." ”
Guan Wen smiled: "Yes." But first, let's pick up our yard and the slope. We also saved some stones by repairing that trail, and when we got back, we discussed with my second brother to make the slope like a trail. ”
"Okay."
Li Xin smiled and nodded, reaching out to hold his arm.
Turning a corner,.
Diao Lao Demon walked this way from there, snorting on the ground from time to time. He kept moving his lips and didn't know what he was cursing - he said it was because of the resentful expression on his face.
Guan Wen had a cold face, looked at the old demon Diao who was walking with his head down, and drank: "Old demon Diao!" ”
Diao Lao Demon hurriedly raised his head, and when he saw Guan Wen and Li Xin, it was like a mouse seeing a cat, his legs bent up instantly, as if to ensure his center of gravity, and his right leg was deviated back, and it seemed that he was subconsciously going to run back.
Guan Wen frowned: "Where did you come from?" ”
Diao Lao Demon swallowed his saliva. There was a little lack of breath in his voice: "I, I'll just go shopping......" Xu felt that this reason was reasonable, and Diao Lao Demon straightened his chest: "Didn't it rain yesterday, I just saw that the weather was good." Just come out for a walk......"
Saying that, Diao Lao Demon subconsciously avoided Guan Wen and Li Xin's sight, and moved to the other side of the road, next to Tian Kan, and said with a flattering smile: "What, Brother Guan, you two are walking, walking...... I'm leaving, I'm leaving......"
As he spoke, he ran away in a puff of smoke, and his pace was very fast, splashing mud on the ground. The mud on his calves could be clearly seen on the hem of his trousers.
Li Xin frowned and shook his head: "Awen, you didn't beat him that day, did you?" Why was he so frightened? Li Xin remembered the two questions that Diao Lao Demon stopped her halfway that day, and was very puzzled: "He was very fearless at first, after you looked for him once, why did he hide when he saw you......"
Guan Wen glanced in the direction that Diao Lao Demon left, turned around and said, "It was probably that day that scared him." I asked by the finger of his neck. He almost died. ”
"Why are you ......" Li Xin suddenly exclaimed: "Awen, aren't you afraid of really strangling people to death?" ”
Guan Wen suddenly smiled and said: "No, I am measured, this trick I learned from the head of the dart before, I used it to ask questions about those who caught the dart, and I tried it all the time." ”
Li Xin still had some lingering palpitations: "Don't do this in the future, if you really miss, it will be a human life......"
Guan Wen looked at Li Xin, and nodded after a while: "I'm also a little impatient, this trick hasn't been used for a long time." ”
"However, Diao Lao Demon came from over there, is it really a casual stroll?" Li Xin hesitated: "What is there to visit in this kind of road?" ”
"I guess I just came out of the old house." Guan Wen's tone was light, "Otherwise, why would you be panicked when you see me?" It must have colluded with Guan Zhicheng to discuss the news. ”
"That ......"
"It's okay, I'm not looking for him anyway."
Guan Wen took Li Xin's hand and continued to the old house.
The door of the old house was closed, and there was no sound in the door, as if it was an empty room with no one. Li Xin looked at Guan Wen, but saw that he walked straight to the door without hesitation, stretched out his hand and knocked on the door, and said in a deep voice: "Open the door!" ”
The door was shut, as if there was no one inside.
"Uncle, are they at home?" Guan Wen looked at an old man who was pulling weeds in the field and asked in a loud voice.
The old man raised his eyes and shook his head and said, "I didn't pay attention, you knock on the door again to see." ”
Guan Wen knocked on the door again, using more force: "Open the door!" ”
Seeing this, the old man shook his head: "It seems that there is no one......"
Guan Wen's eyes sank slightly, took a step back slightly, and shouted in: "Dad, I know you are at home, I count three times, and if I don't open the door again, I will kick the door." ”
Guan Wen did not hesitate to say that, and immediately shouted inside: "One! ”
There was no movement in the door, and Guan Wen immediately shouted: "Two! ”
"Awen......" Li Xin called Guan Wen hesitantly, Guan Wen didn't seem to hear it, seeing that there was still no movement in the door, the third "three" of the number quickly exited, and then without waiting for anyone to react, he stretched out his legs and kicked towards the courtyard door.
It was his good foot that kicked the door, because of the great force, the door was naturally kicked open, but the foot that supported him to stand was a little unbearable, and after kicking the door open, Guan Wen reflexively staggered back and took two steps back.
Li Xin hurriedly stepped forward to hug him, and his heart palpitated.
If he sits down, he will lose face and fall second, and more importantly, will his leg be hit again? Finally, this leg looks much more normal, but it can't be in vain.
Li Xin squatted down, and Guan Wen put his hand on her shoulder. Li Xin rubbed his leg and asked, "How is it, are you okay?" ”
Guan Wen nodded, took a breath and said, "It's okay, get up, Xin'er." ”
Li Xin stood up and looked at the gate of the courtyard that was kicked open with Guan Wen.
Seeing that Guan Wen was a little unkind, he kicked open the courtyard door without saying anything, and the old man opened his mouth in surprise, and it took him a long time to wake up and say, "You, you are ......"
Guan Wen glanced at the old man and said, "Uncle, I have something to do with my father." ”
As he spoke, he nodded to the old man and pulled Li Xinjing in.
There seems to be no one here in the old house, the courtyard door is closed, and no one comes out to stop even the door being kicked open, which is really a little silent.
Even the pigs didn't make a sound.
Guan Wen and Li Xin looked around, and both of them frowned in unison.
"What's going on?" Guan Wen muttered to himself and said to Li Xin: "You wait here, I'll go to the pigsty to have a look." ”
Li Xin nodded, Guan Wen went to the pigsty, but when he came back, his steps were a little flustered: "There are no pigs!" ”
"What?"
"I said, no pigs!" Guan Wen's tone was impatient: "How come there are no more pigs?" Daddy, aren't they still relying on pigs to make money? ”
A glimmer of possibility flashed in Li Xin's heart - this father and son, ran away?
Guan Wen must have thought of this layer as well, and looked at Li Xin with blazing eyes, "I'll go to the field to take a look." ”
Since Guan Quan left and went to the town, Guan Ming went to take a look at the paddy fields from time to time. It's not good to take care of the land, but it's better than letting the weeds grow in the field and absorb the nutrients from the soil.
After Guan Wen finished speaking, he went to the field, while Li Xin sank his mind and walked towards Guan Zhicheng's house.
As always, the house where the closure was locked was locked, and there must have been no one inside.
Li Xin went to Guan Ming's house again, stood at the door of the house and thought about it, but still stretched out his hand and pushed the door open.
The dusty dust came to his face, Li Xin stretched out his hand and swept it, stepped in, saw that it was cleaned up quite cleanly, covered his mouth and nose and went to the mahogany box resting on the side, and opened the box.
There were just a few pieces of clothing left and there, and nothing else was superfluous.
Li Xin frowned slightly, and then looked at the closed window.
Walking out of Guan Ming's house, Li Xin stood in the courtyard.
The door is not locked, but it is plugged in from the inside, which makes people feel a little strange. After looking around the courtyard wall, Li Xin found that there was a ladder in one place, and another ladder lying on the ground.
Li Xin went to the stove again, there was no heat in the stove, and the lid of the wooden pot was well covered. The hall was also empty.
Li Xin carried a stool and rested it in the courtyard, sitting and waiting for Guan Wen.
Time is not too difficult to wait, Li Xin only felt that Guan Wen would come back after a while, snorting and panting, and said to her: "There is no one in the field ...... either"
Li Xin said: "Guan Zhicheng's house is locked, there is no one in your father's house, and the stove is also cold." As he spoke, he pointed to the two ladders that stood and fell on the wall: "And that one." ”
Guan Wen's face became more and more gloomy.
Li Xin exhaled lightly: "Probably, they ran away ......." (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )RQ
