"Really? That's all? ”

Qiao Xuan didn't believe it, she felt that Qiao Yuan's attitude towards Cao Rongrong was wrapped in some inexplicable emotions.

Qiao Yuan put down his pen and looked up at Qiao Xuan.

"She is very good, but she was born in the Cao family, and her different identities are destined to have a distance."

He didn't want to say anything else, he just hoped that Qiao Xuan could understand that there are always some cross-border gaps between people, after all, her mother was also ......

Seeing that Qiao Yuan didn't want to say more, Qiao Xuan didn't continue the topic anymore, "Xi He and I are going back, when will you go back?" ”

"So fast?"

Qiao Yuan was stunned for a moment, his eyes were full of reluctance, "Stay a little longer!" When I'm done with this, we'll go back together. ”

"It's been a while since I came out, Xi He's sister is at home, and we don't worry about her alone."

Qiao Xuan explained, "And the family is doing business, and it can't do without people." ”

Although he told Xi Yan when he left that he would hire a donkey cart to pull things, those people in Taoyuan Village would think crookedly and bully Xi Yan if they didn't see him and Xi He for a long time.

"Alright then!"

————

This side of Taoyuan Village.

Li Yue was helping Xi Yan pick the jelly fruit, and the two of them walked down the mountain with their backpacks sweating profusely.

"Xiaoyan, where did the village chief go? I haven't seen them for a while," Li Yue asked casually.

Xi Yan wiped the sweat from her forehead, gasped and said, "Letter from Uncle Qiao, my brother and Xiao Xuan went to see Uncle Qiao." ”

"Village Chief Qiao is still alive?" A look of emptiness flashed on Li Yue's face, and she pulled the rope of the back basket a little unnaturally.

Xi Yan glared at her angrily, "This is not nonsense!" Of course I'm alive, but I'm not alive, how to write to Xiao Xuan. ”

Li Yue smiled wryly and didn't dare to answer again.

The two walked in silence for a moment before she spoke again, "Xiaoyan, did Zheng Yanli's family give me any money?" ”

"Of course I did! She dared not to give it to her. ”

Although she didn't know how Qiao Xuan pinched Zheng Yanli, she knew that even if she went to steal and rob it, she would give the silver to Qiao Xuan obediently.

"That's good!"

Li Yue looked like she was not at ease when she gave it to me, as if the silver came out of Zheng Yanli's pocket, no matter whose money bag she entered, she would win.

The two chatted with each other and arrived at the foot of the mountain.

I happened to meet a few villagers who were going up to the mountains to hunt, they glanced at the two of them and frowned and asked, "Why are you picking this thing?" And you can't eat it. ”

Dig up some wild vegetables and eat a few bites, and the wild fruits that no one wants in the mountains can't even satisfy their hunger.

"You don't care what we pick it for, we can beat your prey," Li Yue said with a smile.

Xi Yan had a faint expression next to her, she had lived in the village for a while, but she was not very familiar with the people in the village, so Li Yue always came together, so there were more intersections.

"Oh no! Oh no! ”

A few people chatted a few words and were about to separate, when they heard someone shouting in the village.

Li Yue suddenly came to her senses, "What's going on here?" ”

The excitement in the village is nothing more than the fight between the east and the west, the Zhao family stole the Wang family's chicken, and the Zhang family poisoned the Xu family's dog, which is not a big deal, but everyone likes to come together to see this kind of excitement, just for fun.

Zhao Tian and her daughter-in-law came from a distance on the path, "Li Yue, Li Yue, where is the village chief?" What about the village chief? ”

"My family Zhao Tian asked me to call the village chief."

Li Yue looked at Xi Yan, and waited for someone to run to Xi Yan before she spoke, "What's the matter?" Qiao Xuan is not at home at this time. ”

"If it's not important, you'll come back to her in a few days."

Zhao Tian's daughter-in-law was half-bent over, panting tiredly, "Xu Ze was arrested!" ”

"The person who came to my house last time said that it was his second uncle or second uncle, and he came again after only a few days of being driven away, Zhao Tian didn't stop him alone, he pulled Xu Ze and walked down the path."

Xi Yan's brows furrowed when she heard this, "Then don't you hurry up and call a few people from the village to intercept the people back." ”

A few people who were about to hunt ran towards the entrance of the village as soon as they heard that they had dropped their belongings.

Li Yue also put down the basket, "I'll call my family Wang Gui to help too." ”

She ran to her house, and Xi Yan was left alone.

At night, there was a knock on the door of Qiao's house, and Li Yue, Wang Gui and a few previous hunters came.

Several people had ugly faces and were not in high spirits.

"Didn't catch up!" Li Yue rubbed her face, "Alas! Xu Ze is afraid that it is ......"

"The brute hired an ox cart to wait on the side road in advance, and he went to the town, and we ran all over the street after we got to the town without crashing into it."

Wang Gui sighed and said helplessly.

"Let's do it today! You're tired all afternoon, go back early to rest, and I'll go to town tomorrow to inquire again. ”

Xi Yan knows a lot of neighbors in the town, so she may be able to get some news when she asks.
