Chapter 45: Kidnapping
Chen Xi's suspicious eyes made Su Cheng even more flustered.
Where did all her stuff come from?
Obviously, she came empty-handed, and when she jumped into the river, she had nothing but an old coat on her body, but later she was able to move so many things.
Every time they need something, Cheng Niang has it in her hands.
From the bare-opened stick to the pile of kitchen utensils buried in the woods, and the 'bread' she gave to Moto-in, these things came out so strangely.
It's like she's conjured up out of thin air.
Although Cheng Niang explained some of these things, and he saw the scene of digging kitchen utensils, he always felt that those things were like Cheng Niang deliberately did for him.
So until now, Chen Xi has not let down his guard against her.
Cheng Niang must have a secret.
The bowl of noodles in front of him today made Chen Ci directly raise his suspicions.
Even if something else can be dug and hidden in advance, beef can't be, right?
How can Cheng Niang explain this matter?
According to the Chen family, Cheng Niang's temperament has changed greatly after she got married, which is very different from before.
He felt that the problem was not in getting married, but in throwing himself into the river.
If Chengniang's temperament changed when she got married, she would never let the Wang family bully and scold her, until she finally couldn't bear it and chose to commit suicide.
On the contrary, after throwing herself into the river, she not only knew how to find her own protection, but also had the courage to resist the Wang family and the Su family.
He now has an unusually bold idea.
Maybe the person in front of him is not the real Cheng Niang.
Don't......
She is the embodiment of the fox fairy in the mountains?
Because the Tao is profound, so many things can be changed?
But he heard that fox fairies were only willing to appear when they repaid their kindness, he had never saved any foxes, and Cheng Niang should not appear in his house even if she was a fox fairy.
Besides, if she is really a fox fairy, she should be a strong spell.
When the Wang family came to make trouble, how could she be forced to hide in the house and be bullied.
In short, Cheng Niang gave him too much ambivalence.
Facing Chen Ci's suspicious eyes, Su Cheng was silent for a while.
Chen Xi: "Tell me, what the hell is going on." I'm very resilient, you don't have to be afraid to scare me. ”
He's ready.
No matter what Cheng Niang said next, he wouldn't be too shocked.
Su Cheng bowed slightly, only to see her look serious, pointed to the big bowl in front of Chen Ci and asked, "Did you find any shadow of beef in this bowl?" ”
Chen Xi was stunned.
He took a closer look and picked it with his chopsticks, and it seemed that there really wasn't.
Su Cheng: "Is there a possibility that this kind of noodles is just tuned out of the flavor of beef, but there is no beef added to it?" ”
There is no beef in it, is it reasonable for her to make this bowl of noodles?
Chen Xi asked, "If there is really no beef at all, where does such a strong fragrance come from?" ”
Su Cheng: "That's because I have a unique secret seasoning!" ”
That's Master Kong's instant noodles seasoning powder packet!
Chen Xi frowned, faintly persuaded by her, and always felt that something was wrong.
He said: "Since there is no beef, why do you still call it beef noodles?" ”
Su Cheng said confidently: "Then let me ask you, must there be a husband and wife?" Is there necessarily mapo in mapo tofu? Is there necessarily fish in the shredded fish? None of these, so why does beef have to be in beef noodles? ”
Chen Xi was asked by her.
He really couldn't answer.
Su Cheng patted him on the shoulder uncomfortably: "We are allies now, we must trust each other!" You always doubt me like that, and to be honest I'm sad. ”
Chen Ci was stunned, she always does strange things and takes out strange things, he can't doubt it yet?
How can it be reasonably questioned and it seems to be his fault?
Chen Ci: "I ......"
Su Cheng couldn't wait to interrupt him, "No need to say any more, you wash the dishes for this meal." Don't do anything like that that in the future. ”
After Su Cheng finished speaking, he quickly turned around and walked into the kitchen, resolutely not giving Chen Xi any chance to ask questions again.
As soon as Fu left Chen Xi's sight, Su Cheng was so frightened that he slapped his chest to soothe his little beating heart.
Good risk, good risk......
It's a shame that there is no beef in the instant noodles, otherwise she would really not be able to fool around this time.
Chen Xi looked at the kitchen door, his eyes narrowed.
Although Cheng Niang gave him a good reason this time, the doubts in his heart did not dissipate, but became heavier.
Make matters worse by attempting a coverup.
Although he couldn't say what was strange for a while, he always believed in his first instinct.
On this day, Chen Yuanren went to school as usual, and Chen Xi also took out a hoe from the corner and carried it on his shoulder after eating, "I will go to work in the fields in a while, and I won't come back for lunch." ”
Su Cheng heard the voice and poked his head out of the house, "Then I'll go up to the back mountain to dig some bamboo shoots in a while, and make braised bamboo shoots in oil at noon and send them to you?" ”
He glanced at Su Cheng's skirt, "I'm tired of going up the mountain, so don't come." ”
Although the last time Cheng Niang came to the mountain to deliver food, he had a long face, but Cheng Niang did not have to do it.
In the past two days, the people of the Su family have troubled her, and after the two of them left, he also hoped that Cheng Niang could rest for two more days.
Su Cheng looked at his back as he left and sneered.
said that he doubted her, but he still cared about her in his heart.
But even if Chen Xi doesn't let him deliver food, he has to do what he should do at home.
Su Cheng simply cleaned up the kitchen and went up the mountain with a small basket on his back.
On the way, Su Cheng happened to meet Fang He picking vegetables and coming back, Fang He said happily: "Cheng Niang, why are you going?" ”
Su Cheng: "Dig bamboo shoots." ”
It's spring, and it's a good time to dig spring shoots.
Dig more blanching water to dry, and you can stir-fry and eat in the future.
Fang He leaned over and glanced at her little hoe and said, "This hoe is too small, I'm afraid it's not easy to dig bamboo shoots." You go to the north, where the bamboo shoots are smaller and more tender. ”
"Good!" Su Cheng agreed.
Fang He was more familiar with the terrain here, so he was right to listen to her.
The two parted ways on the mountain road, and Su Cheng walked deeper into the mountain forest.
No one noticed that not long after Fang He left, two sturdy men quietly followed Su Cheng into the deep mountains.
Su Cheng followed the winding path to the north of the mountain, and soon found a lot of fresh bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest.
She put down the basket, and halfway through the digging she heard footsteps approaching in the grass.
Someone?
As soon as Su Cheng turned around, she didn't even see anyone clearly, and a pungent white cloth covered her mouth and nose.
"Hmm!!"
The man covered her mouth with one hand, grabbed her body with the other, and dragged Su Cheng into the woods.
"Hurry up!"
The man said to another man with a sack next to him.
Su Cheng was shocked, and the pungent smell on the white cloth was inhaled by her in an instant.
Kidnap!!
In broad daylight, this group of people wanted to take her captive!
She was so frightened that she kept struggling, and the other saw that she was not easy to deal with, so he directly picked up her legs and carried her into the woods together.
