Chapter 223: Eavesdropping
With that, Jiang Dige pushed open the door and walked outside.
Si Mubai looked at her in a hurry, and couldn't help but tighten his eyes. It's so late, where is she going?
Thinking of what the steward of Changxing Village said to Jiang Dige that day, he couldn't help but get nervous. Without a moment of hesitation, he followed Jiang Tuge out of the door, "Jiang Tuge, you wait a minute." ”
Hearing this, Jiang Dige stopped and explained, "I just wanted to go to Steward Li's place, and I heard that the Yunhe River led by Changxing Village has dried up. ”
"This matter also concerns all the people in our Yunzhuang, I must tell him."
Si Mubai's brows also furrowed, this is not a good sign, "I'll go with you, I'm not worried about you alone at such a late hour." ”
With that, Si Mubai took Jiang Dige's arm and walked side by side towards Steward Li's house.
At this time, Li was in charge of the house, and he sat at the dinner table with a sad face. He only ate one bite of the food in front of him and lost his appetite.
The lady in charge looked at him like this, and couldn't help but be a little anxious, "Old man, people are iron and steel, how can you do without eating?" ”
"Didn't Sun Gongshi come to the house to express his stance before? If those people in Changxing Village are really making trouble, he will definitely be on our side. ”
Steward Li took a puff of the cigarette pot in his hand, "What do you know, although Sun Gongshi said this is true." But those people in Changxing Village are all dog mongrels, will they really care about Sun Gongshi at that time? ”
Hearing this, the lady in charge also became worried. That day, she listened to Sun Gongshi's words, and thought that they didn't need to worry so much about this matter.
"Old man, how is this good? Our Yunzhuang has finally settled down for a few days, if they really don't care about it, how can it be good. ”
"How's that good? Naturally, he had to prepare in advance, and Sun Gongshi couldn't put all his hopes on him. Steward Li had a gloomy face, he had to prepare for the worst.
"Steward Li, have you slept?" Just when the two of them were worried, Jiang Tuge's voice came from outside the door.
Hearing this, the lady in charge hurriedly walked over, "Jiang Niangzi, Si Dalang, you come in quickly." ”
Jiang Dige answered, and as soon as he entered the courtyard, Steward Li had already walked out, and his attitude towards Jiang Dige was very polite, "Mrs. Jiang, you came to look for me so late, what happened?" ”
"Indeed!" Jiang Dige looked at Steward Li with a serious face and said, "Is the water in our canal still safe?" ”
Steward Li was a little surprised, how did this good guy mention the canal? "Jiang Niangzi, this canal is tightly guarded by the people of our Yunzhuang, and the people in the surrounding villages have not found it until now!"
Jiang Dige nodded, and then said, "Manager Li, we have to prepare in advance." I'm afraid the water in this canal will soon become unsafe. ”
"What? Jiang Niangzi, did the people from our Yunzhuang say that they leaked their mouths? No, these people have very strict mouths. Steward Li looked puzzled.
"Neither!" Jiang Dige shook his head, "Steward Li, Yunhe has dried up." ”
"Huh?" Steward Li was stunned, and even the cigarette pot in his hand fell to the ground, "Lady Jiang, what you said is true?" Is the message accurate? ”
"Accurate!" Jiang Dige looked at Steward Li and replied seriously, "It stands to reason that Yunhe shouldn't have dried up so quickly. ”
"Maybe it's because it's hot, or maybe it's a sideline. In short, I am afraid that the matter of the canal will not be hidden. ”
The lady in charge still couldn't believe it, "Lady Jiang, could you have heard it wrong?" Or maybe the people of Changxing Village deliberately released the news to confuse us! ”
"No, I can guarantee that!" Jiang Dige said categorically, she believed that Xiao Hei would not betray herself for the sake of Changxing Village.
Speaking of which, the housekeeper and Steward Li glanced at each other.
"Mrs. Jiang, the old man believes in you. But where did you get this news? I know you've helped us a lot, but how could this news come out for no reason. ”
Jiang Dige tightened her eyes, in fact, on the way to Steward Li's house, she had been thinking about this problem. If she said that she had seen it, it would only make the couple doubt themselves even more.
After thinking about it, she still made up a solid lie. She deliberately glanced around, "Steward Li, auntie, don't hide it from you, I also overheard about this matter." ”
"Eavesdropping?" Steward Li and his wife listened in a fog.
Si Mubai on the side also raised his eyebrows slightly, since he went home, Jiang Dige has not been out, where did she get such news?
Seeing this, Jiang Tuge hurriedly said, "It's true that I overheard, and I heard it in my room,"
"I don't know if you two have heard of a man named Zhang Lou in Changxing Village, I heard that he likes to do some things like to steal chickens and dogs on weekdays."
"I've observed in the past few days, he always comes to our Yunzhuang, and he looks even more mysterious as if something is going on."
Hearing this, Steward Li suddenly lost his temper, "This Wang Mazi will do these things all day long." ”
"It's good now, I actually sent someone to monitor our Yunzhuang, it's too deceitful."
"Steward Li, listen to me first." Jiang Dige hurriedly interrupted, "Zhang Lou came to our Yunzhuang, it should have nothing to do with Wang Mazi." ”
"I don't know what the purpose of his coming to us is, I'm just afraid that the more times he comes, he will find out about the canal on the mountain."
"At that time, if he tells Wang Mazi about this matter for the sake of inviting merit, then we will be passive."
Steward Li nodded, "You're right, this Zhang Lou really should pay attention to it." Jiang Niangzi, do you think he will deliberately come to inquire about some news because of the events of these days? ”
"Probably not!" Jiang Dige tightened his eyes, "Zhang Lou came to Yunzhuang to find someone, and he was impartial, he and that person happened to make an appointment behind my house." ”
Jiang Dige said it very seriously, and it sounded as if it had really happened. But she dared to say this because there was no one living behind her house.
Even if someone says she's lying, there's no evidence.
"Jiang Niangzi, can you hear who you are looking for?" The lady in charge couldn't help but ask.
Jiang Dige shook his head, "I don't know about this, but it sounds like a young woman." ”
As she spoke, Jiang Dige hurriedly covered her mouth, "Steward Li, I'm ......"
The housekeeper's face turned cold, "Which one is shameless, Jiang Niangzi, tell me quickly." If I were caught, I wouldn't spare her. ”
Steward Li also agreed, "Old woman, what you said is right, such a shameless person, we Yunzhuang will never tolerate her." When the wheat was filled, they drove her out of Yunzhuang. ”
