After leaving Yard No. 2, she went to the fields again. There were many people working in the soybean fields in the distance. Some of them were killed by the heavy snow last time, and they were clearing and thinning out the seedlings over the past two days.
The ground was moist with the snow water. She would take care of the land for a few years, and maybe grow crops in the future.
When Xingfu went out in the morning, Chunxiao told her to go early and come back early. As a result, she didn't come back until the evening. She didn't know what was wrong with her. She looked at the sky and thought that if she didn't come back in an hour, she would probably stay at the farm today.
"What a pity, such delicious braised meat, but I don't have the chance to enjoy it." Chunxiao was eating and looking at the big plate of braised meat. These were made last night and I didn't eat them yesterday.
"Miss, there are probably about 200 kilograms in total. We braised it until late at night yesterday, and you were still worried that she wouldn't have any to eat. You can't finish so much by yourself."
"Oh, forget about her. Let me try it first." She picked up a piece and put it in her mouth to taste it. "This is the taste. It's so delicious. You should try it quickly." The two of them happily ate the braised meat.
By noon of the next day, Xingfu had not returned yet. In the past, when she went to the farm and stayed overnight, she would always return at noon. Yesterday, she had reminded Xingfu to go early and return early, but she still hadn't returned even after noon. Could it be that something happened at the farm and she couldn't leave?
She was a little worried, so she asked Meiman to call Zhao Shitou, "Go to Linye Village to find my eldest brother, and ask him to drive the carriage to Huangkou Village to see if there is anything wrong there. If there is nothing, let Xingfu return quickly."
Zhao Shitou was also a little worried, so he drove away in the ox cart.
In the evening, Yan Dashan came back and told her that the people in the village said that Xingfu had never been there.
Chunxiao was shocked. He disappeared inexplicably.
"Brother, I want to go to the township government." She originally thought that something happened in the village, but unexpectedly, someone was missing. She felt panicked and thought of Yan Qi before. Could it be that he had encountered human traffickers again? She felt a surge of fear in her heart.
"Chunxiao, there's no point in being anxious now. It'll be tomorrow morning anyway." Yan Dashan knew that the person might be missing and the situation would be serious. "It's getting late now. Even if we report it to the authorities, they won't be able to find him. Let's wait until tomorrow morning."
Meiman also advised, "Miss, don't worry. I will ask a few people from the courtyard to go to the town to look for it and see if anyone has seen it." Meiman ran out anxiously.
She couldn't be impatient. She had experience in finding people, so she couldn't be impatient.
Seeing that she had calmed down, Yan Dashan said, "I'll go back first. I'll pick you up at dawn tomorrow. We'll go to the township government to report to the police."
Chunxiao looked at him and nodded. She had to draw a portrait right away. A moment later, Zhao Shitou came running over. "Boss, I'm going to look for someone." He must have heard from Meiman that someone was missing, and his face was filled with anxiety.
"Mei Man said to send someone to look for her in town. Where are you going to look?"
"I'll go to Shuikou Village to see if she meets her family on the way back." Zhao Shitou was really anxious.
Although Chunxiao felt that the possibility was small, he didn't dare to rule it out 100%. "Then you can go with the ox cart. Bring a lantern and be careful on the road."
After Zhao Shitou left, she lit the lamp and began to draw a portrait in the room, but no matter how hard she tried, it didn't look like the person. The more anxious she was, the worse she did things. She tried to calm herself down.
Meiman said that everyone in the village had gone out to look for him, but it was really hard to find someone so late at night, especially when they were looking for someone aimlessly.
That night she lay in bed, waking up and falling asleep repeatedly, feeling very uneasy. These ancient human traffickers were truly despicable.
At dawn the next day, Yan Dashan came to pick her up as expected. She asked Meiman to look after the farm and followed Yan Dashan to the township government.
When Chen Tingzhang heard that someone around her was missing, he was also surprised. He asked them where they were lost. When he heard that they were lost on the way to Huangkou Village, he suggested that they go to the Wuying Town Government to report their crimes.
The township government quickly sent people to look for him.
Chunxiao and Yan Dashan drove to the township government of Wuying Town again. When the other party heard that a servant was missing, they didn't take it seriously at first and just said they took note of it. But when they heard that a carriage and some valuables were also missing, they began to take it seriously.
Nowadays, people who can own a carriage are either powerful or rich, so they naturally have to pay attention to it.
Chunxiao was almost amused by their attitude. If it weren't for the horse, the plan would have been shelved. Life truly was worthless. But in the end, she finally arranged for someone to go look for it, otherwise she was afraid she would have become an angry young man.
They searched and inquired about Wuying Town, but to no avail. They returned to Luokou Town and went to the township government, but there was no news either. Zhao Shitou had gone to Shuikou Village the day before and was now in the town asking questions, and that's how the two groups ran into each other.
"How is it? Any news?" Chunxiao saw him asking Yan Dashan to stop the car from afar.
Zhao Shitou shook his head dejectedly and said that he had asked many people in the village, but they all said that they had never seen Song Qin, and neither did they have any family members.
A few of them were about to go to Wuying Town to take another look when Xia San suddenly ran over. "Boss, we finally found you. You should hurry back. Someone came to the farm. Steward Meiman said there's news about Steward Xingfu. He asked me to find you. I still need to get the doctor."
When they heard this, they ignored Xia San and drove straight to the manor. Chunxiao and Yan Dashan returned to the manor first and asked everyone they met.
"Boss, it's in the vacant room in Yard 3. Meiman's housekeeper is there too."
The two of them went straight to Courtyard No. 3. The doors of the rooms in the courtyard were already crowded with people. When they saw them, they called out to the boss and made way. Meiman was sitting on the edge of the bed at this moment. When she heard Chunxiao and the others come in, she hurriedly stood up and walked to Chunxiao with an extremely anxious look on her face, "Boss, I don't know where this girl came from. When she came, she said "Help people quickly" and then fainted. I fed her sugar water but it didn't work. She must have some happy news, but what can we do if she doesn't wake up?" How could she faint after finally getting some news? It made me so anxious.
