Chapter 13: Search
"Oh, who's stepping on my hand!"
"Come on, Miss Fumoto."
"Don't pull my hair!"
“……”
The weeds are swaying, and the Sanfang family is struggling in the muddy water, looking at the embarrassed appearance, it is really unbearable.
Poof!
I don't know who laughed first, and then it was like a wave, and everyone laughed too, even the serious Liu Chengan narrowed his eyes.
At this moment, the tension that had been in place for days was finally eased, and everyone was smiling.
In the evening, the fine rain weaves a gray curtain in the canopy.
In the hall where the family sits, it is rare to have a hearty hot meal, Xu fell hard during the day, and An's did not trouble Liu Luoying for the first time.
"Everyone have a good rest tonight, and tomorrow we will find my mother's body." After the meal, Liu Chengan tiredly dismissed everyone.
Under the candlelight, his hair was a little gray, and the fatigue of traveling for days made him seem to be ten years old.
Liu Luoying didn't feel good in her heart, and when she saw that her father had a little pain in her back when she got up, she hurriedly stepped forward to help: "Father, I'll help you." ”
"Hmm." A flash of surprise flashed in Liu Chengan's eyes, and he regained his composure in an instant, but when he put his hand on his little daughter's slender arm, he still couldn't hide the waves in his heart, and said in a very soft voice, "It's cold, you are weak, wear more." ”
"Okay."
Father and daughter stopped talking, but their pace was slow and uniform.
After sending her father back to the house, Liu Luoying did not return to the room immediately, but walked around the old mansion.
The subordinates were busy and did not notice her.
Childhood memories came flooding back to her heart, and her eyes couldn't help but moisten as she stood under the eaves and thought of the grandmother who had given her all the warmth.
At this time, a heavy shawl covered her body, Liu Qingqing tied a belt for her, and asked softly, "What are you thinking?" ”
"Sister, Sakura is thinking, how nice it would be if this rain could keep falling and trap us here."
"Little fool, if this rain doesn't stop, we won't be able to set off."
Liu Qingqing nodded the tip of Liu Luoying's nose, pulled her dotingly, stood side by side under the eaves, looked at the drizzle, and her heart calmed down.
She only thought that the little sister was missing her grandmother, so she didn't think much about it, but where did she know, what Liu Luoying wanted was that the team couldn't set off, and everyone was trapped in the old mansion together.
As long as they survive half a month here, the war is stable, and the Jin soldiers are forced out of the pass, the tragedy of the previous life will not happen.
But the current problem is how to convince people to stay here.
The third uncle has been here before, and he must have dug three feet into the ground and not let go of any clues. He didn't find his grandmother's body, and it was estimated that tomorrow would be in vain.
With Liu Chengan's character, he will be delayed here for two days at most, and if nothing is found, he will set off as soon as possible and rush to the outside of the customs.
If this is the case, it will return to the original point and repeat the tragedy of the previous life.
Liu Luoying's heart was dull, and after returning to the house, she tossed and turned, unable to sleep at night, so she was hit until dawn.
"Miss, your face is not very good, but you had a fever again last night?"
"No, I just didn't sleep well."
Bao Xia put his hand on her forehead to confirm that there was no fever, and then breathed a sigh of relief and waited for her to wash.
"Go there and have a look. If I find out that someone dares to be private, they will be served by family law! ”
Liu Chenguang's lecture suddenly sounded outside, and immediately after, he heard a rush of footsteps in the corridor, and the people searched through the boxes and cabinets, not letting go of any corner.
Liu Luoying chuckled and shook her head, secretly thinking that the third uncle, who was lazy and lazy, was also extremely diligent in the matter of looting money.
A day passed, and nothing was found, without incident.
Liu Chenguang lost his enthusiasm and spread his hands at the dinner table: "Big brother, I didn't find anything, if you don't believe it, you can take someone to look for it again tomorrow." ”
An's eyes complained, but he didn't dare to say Liu Qingqing, so he could only glance at Liu Luoying with disgust, and said without yin or yang: "Big brother, in my opinion, there is nothing in the old mansion, let's set off as soon as possible." There is still a medicine jar at home, and I have to buy medicinal materials every day, if I continue to consume it like this, I am afraid that before it reaches the gate, everyone will not even be able to afford to eat. ”
"Mother, you can't say that, my sister is very rich, if the family has no money, when the time comes, ask my sister if she wants, she is generous and generous, and she will definitely not hide it."
Sure enough, it was a mother and daughter who were connected, and the tone and expression of their words were exactly the same.
I saw Liu Yuying pretending to blink her eyes simply, pretending to be intimate and serving a bowl of soup for Liu Chengan, and her mouth did not stop: "Uncle, you don't know yet, in order to repay the second son of the Luo family, my sister spent thirty taels to buy a dagger as a gift." With such arrogance, Ying'er categorically can't learn it. ”
As soon as she saw this contrived face, Liu Luoying felt her stomach churning and faintly nauseated.
In the last life, this woman first designed to sow discord, causing her to be beaten into the cold palace by Lin Peiyan, and she became the favorite concubine of the harem.
Then he was framed by thieves and helped Sanfang rob the family property, so that the Liu family was beheaded on the street, and even the married sister was not spared.
Thinking of this, Liu Luoying's eyes couldn't help but float a layer of coldness, and she looked at Liu Xueying sharply: "My cousin is really well-informed, but my grandfather explicitly forbade it at that time and was not allowed to leak outsiders, I don't know where my cousin got it?" ”
Liu Qingqing was already suppressing the fire, and immediately said with a smile: "I thought that my grandfather's family only had a deep relationship with our sisters, but I didn't want to have such a good relationship with my cousin, and even the internal affairs would be informed." I don't know which cousin has the best relationship with the Luo family? ”
Seeing her angry, An immediately smiled and said: "This girl in my family is hearsay, I guess I heard it wrong." That's right, Xue Ying. ”
Liu Xueying was in a cold sweat, knowing that she had said the wrong thing, which made the marquise unhappy, and also exposed her private dealings with the Luo family, and hurriedly said to Liu Luoying aggrievedly: "Sister, don't be angry, Ying'er was just joking." ”
"My cousin is not wrong, I did spend thirty taels of silver to buy an object for my second cousin. But the man who chewed the root of his tongue didn't seem to tell his cousin that it was because my second cousin had given up the jade pendant he was carrying to buy medicine for me. I didn't have that much money to redeem the jade pendant at that time, so I had to pay it back with other items, and in other words, I still owed it to my second cousin. ”
Hearing this, Liu Chengan's face softened a lot, and he nodded slightly, praising his youngest daughter's clear grievances.
Liu Luoying lost her appetite, so she simply got up and bowed slightly: "Father, my daughter is unwell and has also returned to the house." ”
When she walked out of the hall, she heard her father's low reprimand behind her: "There are some things that I will read for the sake of the family, turn a blind eye, and it will pass." But Sakura is my daughter after all, if someone goes too far, don't blame me for turning his face! ”
