A noble嫡女 (legitimate daughter of a high-ranking official) is framed and falls to the borderlands, losing her memory and becoming a farmer's wife. Su Nanxi arrives with a space (a mystical ...
Who knows!
Otherwise, why would they disappear without a trace?
Mo Qinghe pondered in silence for a while and realized that the missing girls seemed to be more or less related to Zhao Jinhua, but it was quite secretive. If you didn't deliberately connect the events, it would be hard to find out. He just didn't know why Zhao Jinhua was no longer hiding it.
It seems Zhao Jinhua has become quite emboldened, probably because she has some powerful backer.
Su Nanxi felt that Zhao Jinhua would change sooner or later. Driven by money and interests, people's hearts are the biggest variable and can change at any time.
There's a saying: the bolder you are, the more you'll produce!
It seems to apply too!
The bolder a person is, the greater their wealth and power may be!
Wow, just hearing that makes my heart flutter!
However, Zhao Jinhua's biggest mistake was reaching out to the Mo family. Since they dared to do so, she dared to retaliate!
If you don't provoke her, she won't bother with such insignificant people. But if you do provoke her, she'll wipe them all out!
Mo Yunmei will be sent away in a few days. At this crucial moment, she actually caused trouble for the Mo family. Su Nanxi is not afraid of trouble and is happy to play along!
Not far away, Zhao Jinhua sneezed violently. Feeling a little uneasy, she got up and looked around nervously. After listening for a while and finding nothing unusual, she lay back down to sleep.
As soon as it was light, she packed her things and headed to town.
After having breakfast, Su Nanxi went to town.
Mo Yunmei started to complain unhappily, pointing at Su Nanxi, "Mom! Why did she go to town by herself again? She always spends money recklessly and is going to spend all the money in the house! I want to go too! I've only been a few times!"
After finishing her breakfast, Grandma Mo was packing up her tools to go out when she heard this, and simply said, "If you're so capable, you can go every day!"
Mo Yunmei retorted, unconvinced, "What skills does she have? She does the same work as us, there's nothing special about her!"
Grandma Mo replied, "Being able to make money quietly is a skill. If you're so capable, go and try making it yourself!"
Mo Yunmei pouted, not believing that Su Nanxi could earn money on her own. She felt that Old Madam Mo was biased towards this ugly girl and wondered how much money she had given the ugly girl in private, while saying that the ugly girl had earned it!
Grandma Mo didn't give Mo Yunmei a chance to talk nonsense. She shoved the tools in her hand into hers and pushed her out the door. "Come on! The sun is already high in the sky. Stop dawdling and get to work! If you don't work, you won't get any food!"
The Mo couple kept their eyes fixed on Mo Yunmei, not allowing her to leave for even a moment. Except when they needed to relieve themselves, they never took their eyes off Mo Yunmei.
Even the slow-witted Mo Yunmei sensed it. She muttered, "Why are you watching me so closely? I'm not going to run around, and I'm not slacking off. I'm just a little slow at working!"
The Mo couple pretended not to hear and continued their surveillance mission. Their third son had instructed them not to let Mo Yunmei out of their sight for even a quarter of an hour!
While slowly working, Mo Yunmei cursed Su Nanxi in her heart. Everyone else was working hard, but she was leisurely going shopping!
Su Nanxi, a resident of the town, couldn't help but sneeze and muttered, "Ugh! Someone's insulting me again!"
Yes, Su Nanxi did speak, but she was startled by her own voice. It sounded so old!
She's still a young girl, but that voice just doesn't suit her at all; it's so incongruous!
She still doesn't dare to speak loudly, and she doesn't know why. Maybe her throat hasn't fully recovered yet, and even a little bit of vocal cord vibration makes her throat feel sore!
She had explored this issue in great depth, but there was no answer. Who knows why this happened!
Anyway, as long as her voice gets better, it's fine. It'll just take a little time, so let's just wait. She's been silent for a long time, so a little more won't make a difference!
Su Nanxi followed Zhao Jinhua closely, intending to use Zhao Jinhua to investigate the mastermind behind the scenes.
Her guess was right; Zhao Jinhua did indeed have someone behind her, and that person was her husband, an old man in his sixties.
The old man was short and fat, with a long beard. He looked very kind, always had a smile on his face, and his eyes seemed clear and harmless!
However, Su Nanxi, hiding in the shadows, saw Zhao Jinhua trembling. Yes, it was the kind of trembling that comes from fear and dread. Although Zhao Jinhua had her head down and was twisting her handkerchief in her hands, trying her best to control herself, it was still visible if you looked closely.
The fat old man seemed quite satisfied with Zhao Jinhua's reaction. He didn't get angry at all; instead, he watched with great interest before finally letting Zhao Jinhua go back to her room.
After Zhao Jinhua left, the fat old man immediately changed his expression, his face turning sinister and completely different from the kind-looking person he had been just moments before. The change of expression happened in an instant!
Su Nanxi sighed inwardly, "What a talent! It's such a pity he's not learning Sichuan Opera face-changing!"
The fat old man spat, his mouth full of disdain, "Getting more and more useless, taking so long to deal with a brainless person!"
He then instructed the servant beside him, "Go tell Fifth Master that the goods he wanted have been secured. They are very fresh and tender, and he will be satisfied!"
After saying that, he gave a wicked smile, his face full of wrinkles, and at first glance, he looked quite like a monster!
Su Nanxi could finally confirm that she was right!
These old perverts don't treat young girls like human beings, they're practically selling them!
I reckon most of them will get bored inside and then be thrown into some building when they come out.
Damn it!
Su Nanxi was also furious. Zhao Jinhua would deal with it slowly later and rescue Mo Yunmei first!
That idiot is probably still dreaming, thinking he's about to become a rich lady!
It's unlikely we can pull that idiot out and drain the water from her brain. Let's stall for a few days until she gets back to her home, then let her do whatever she wants!
Su Nanxi followed the servant to find the Fifth Master mentioned by the fat old man. Anyone who could be by the fat old man's side was no useless person. This servant had good counter-surveillance skills. If it were an ordinary person, he would have really shaken them off!
But if this servant wants to get rid of Su Nanxi, he'll need to train for another ten or eight years!
The servant eventually entered a building with fierce-looking guards; it was clearly not a good place!
really!
Su Nanxi arrived at a really bad time. Before she could even go inside, there was a sudden commotion. Then one group of people rushed out, followed by another.
The two groups started fighting. The people in the same clothes were all fierce and looked like they wanted to kill each other. They were very ruthless and left no way out.
Another group of five people, dressed casually in ordinary clothes, gradually lost ground as they faced an increasing number of attackers. Despite their superior martial arts skills, they were gradually overwhelmed.
Su Nanxi was observing; she had no intention of helping. Without understanding the situation, she didn't want to be rashly drawn into their struggle.
But soon, she wavered because she saw a familiar person, Master Chen!
Why is Master Chen here?
Wearing plain clothes, does that mean the government is involved too?
She's really in a dilemma; should she intervene or not?
