Chapter 18: Riding a horse to catch up
The woman is not young, but she has a temperament of ten thousand styles.
She was in the hall, nodding and greeting people from time to time.
The moment Shen Qiushui saw her, the woman saw Shen Qiushui.
The woman didn't think about it, she turned and left.
was dragged by Shen Qiushui, who ran forward quickly, and grabbed his slender arm.
In this dynasty, most women age very quickly because of hard work and family affairs, but this woman is the opposite, she is almost forty years old, her skin is so tender that she looks like she is only in her twenties.
"What are you doing, let go of me!" The woman struggled.
Her cry caught everyone's attention.
There is no shortage of troublesome women in Hualou, and thugs are ready at any time.
As soon as the woman spoke, five or six thugs rushed out.
The rest of the hall feared being accidentally injured, and they all fled to the side.
Shen Qiushui dragged the woman hard, pulled her to his side, and directly grabbed the other party's neck with one hand.
Shen Qiushui didn't bother with the thugs who surrounded her and Mo Changtian, but directly grabbed the woman and asked.
Looking at the nervous look of the thugs around her, the woman's status in Hualou must not be low.
The woman was choked by Shen Qiushui's neck, and she was so frightened that she lost her face, and felt that it was becoming more and more difficult to breathe, so she didn't dare to move immediately, for fear that the other party would strangle her to death.
"You, if you let me go, I'll tell you where the child is." The woman swallowed the discomfort in her throat and spoke slowly.
Shen Qiushui sneered.
When she's stupid, she can say this kind of foolish thing.
Mo Changtian approached Shen Qiushui and poked her with his hand.
Shen Qiushui looked sideways.
I saw that the other party was holding a dagger in his hand, which I didn't know where to get it.
The dagger was very sharp, and Mo Changtian twisted the pointed end of the dagger and pointed the handle towards Shen Qiushui.
Shen Qiushui was not polite to him, and took it directly, changing the pinching posture to using a dagger on the other party's neck.
The woman could feel that Shen Qiushui's hand was loosened, and she scolded Shen Qiushui in her heart for being a stupid fork, and she believed this kind of nonsense.
She was about to run forward, but she just hit the dagger.
Frightened, she hurriedly leaned back.
"Say, where is the child now, and if I play tricks again, I can't guarantee that my hands will slip."
A red line of blood had appeared on the woman's neck, which she had just bumped into herself.
Now, she is even more afraid to move.
"I say, I say." The woman hurriedly said, "The child is really not with me. ”
"Where is that, be clear, don't play tricks." The dagger in Shen Qiushui's hand was getting closer.
Even if she couldn't see where the dagger was, the woman's eyes couldn't help but glance down.
The cold feeling in her neck made her stiffen.
"Those two were sent to the state city by me, and they just set off, it's too late for you to let me go and chase after them now."
"Let your people prepare horses for me!" Shen Qiushui dragged the woman out, and the dagger that was across the other party's neck was never taken down.
"Do as she says! Prepare the horses! The woman commanded.
She was dragged out by Shen Qiushui, and she tilted her head very uncomfortably, for fear that she would be cut in her throat and die with a whimper.
Outside the door of the flower building.
Someone brought two horses out.
Mo Changtian took the initiative to step forward and snatch the reins.
"I did what you said, now can you let me go?" The woman said pitifully, tears rolling in her eyes, as if I had seen pity.
Those who watched it and watched the excitement were distressed.
However, Shen Qiushui is not so easy to fool.
It was legal for this dynasty to buy and sell people, and the two little guys were sold by Mrs. Mo, and they must have signed a deed of sale.
"Take out the deed of sale!"
The woman's face froze. She didn't expect Shen Qiushui to think of this.
She really had the idea of going to the government to report the case with the deed of sale, and if she really took out the deed of sale, wouldn't she be busy for most of the month?
The woman was unwilling, that little girl could see the shadow of her peerless appearance in the future at a young age, she originally planned to send it to please the nobles, where could Shen Qiushui go back so easily.
The woman lowered her eyes, and her eyes rolled to her heart.
"Did you hear that, take out all the two deeds of sale!" Shen Qiushui didn't know what bad idea the other party was playing, and the dagger in his hand was a little closer.
"The deed of sale is not on me, how about I take you to get it?" The woman said softly, and after speaking, she didn't forget to look at Mo Changtian pitifully.
Shen Qiushui doesn't eat this set.
And Mo Changtian is the most disgusted with this kind of look.
In his previous life, all the women who stuck to him with a purpose were like this, which was disgusting.
"Mo Changtian, come here." Shen Qiushui did not follow the woman's train of thought, but asked Mo Changtian to step forward.
The woman and the dagger were handed over to Mo Changtian.
Shen Qiushui searched his body.
The woman was kidnapped by Mo Changtian, she suddenly rubbed against Mo Changtian, and said delicately: "Good brother, will you let go of the slave family~"
When Shen Qiushui heard this, his hand shook, and he almost lost the deed of sale that he had found on the woman.
"Be honest!" Mo Changtian couldn't help but feel disgusted, and the dagger in his hand directly cut the outermost layer of skin on the other party's neck.
The woman's face was twisted in pain.
She had never seen such a man who was so incomprehensible! Like a piece of wood.
Shen Qiushui confirmed the names on the two deed of sale and nodded towards Mo Changtian.
After counting the silver taels and some jewelry that had been taken away by Mrs. Mo in the cloth bag in front of everyone, all of them were thrown by Shen Qiushui at the woman's feet.
"The silver will be repaid to you, and this transaction will not be counted." After saying that, he tore up the two deeds of sale.
The woman was disheartened when she saw that all the hard work she had been working on for so many days had been wasted.
"You can ride a horse, right?" Shen Qiushui asked Mo Changtian.
"Yes."
"Okay, let's go and chase the two kids back." After she finished speaking, she turned over and got on her horse.
Mo Changtian kicked the woman away from him as fast as he could, and jumped onto the horse.
Shen Qiushui didn't see this scene, otherwise she would definitely be able to see that Mo Changangel was the light skill she had often seen in TV dramas in her previous life.
The two horses rushed out almost at the same time.
The thugs behind him did not chase after her, but scrambled forward to help the very embarrassed woman up.
The woman watched the two of them disappear on horseback, and her hands were clenched into fists.
If you dare to spoil my good deeds, I will want you to live and not die!
……
The horse led the two of them to gallop on the official road.
The distance from Qinghe County to the state capital is very long, and it takes about a day to ride a horse.
Riding a carriage is slower than riding a horse, and they should be able to catch up quickly.
Qinghe County is a relatively remote county, and they didn't even see anyone along the way.
Rode tirelessly through the afternoon.
As the sun sets, the sky is filled with golden afterglow.
Shen Qiushui, who was on horseback, vaguely saw a carriage in front of him.
Her legs were numb from shaking, and for a moment she thought she was too tired and dizzy.
