Chapter 51 Who said I ran away?
Yuan Xun's expression was also somewhat solemn.
He asked several officers to check around to see if there were any footprints or anything like that.
The official came back quickly and reported the landslide on the back mountain.
"Brother Yuan, do you want to find some brothers to go down and take a look? What if he fell down accidentally? Even if we can find some evidence..."
Yuan Xun looked up at the sky and said, "It's going to rain soon. It's too dangerous to go down there rashly. Besides, we have to take these bandits back with us. How about this? You take your men back first, and I'll go down alone to check it out."
"Brother Yuan, you'd better find two brothers to go with you..." said the officer worriedly.
Yuan Xun interrupted him and said, "Listen to me! Don't worry, my skills are more than enough to save your life!"
Immediately, the other officers took the exiled prisoners and the bandits down the mountain, while Yuan Xun went down the slippery slope alone to check.
However, when he went down, Chen Fenghe was in the space, so he searched for a long time but found nothing, so he had to go back and report.
When Chen Wu saw the officers returning with some kidnapped bandits, and later waited for Yuan Xun to come back and inquire about the reason, he couldn't help but feel a sinking feeling in his heart.
Did Chen Fenghe really escape?
Qin Mengyue was also panicked when she saw that Shen Fenghe was not among the people returning from the mountain. "Master, Fenghe...why didn't she come back with us? Did something happen?"
When the Qin family heard this, they all gloated over it.
Qian Qiuyun sneered, "What happened? So many people went up there together and nothing happened, but she got into trouble? She must have run away!"
"That's right! I told you this little bitch has a wild temper! Did you think you could stay a widow and serve your mother-in-law and brother-in-law willingly? Now you've run away, right? Not only did you run away, but you also left two burdens for you. I wonder how you can be so tough in the future with three little kids who need to eat!"
Liu Cui was humiliated last time, so she spoke sarcastically this time.
Qin Mengyue glared at them and said, "This is our family affair, what does it have to do with you! If you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb!"
Then he turned to Chen Wu and said, "Master Chen, can you send someone to look for Feng He... She won't run away! Something must have happened to her..."
After hearing this, Shen Yichuan and Shen Qingxing were so anxious that they almost cried: "Aunt, officers, my sister won't run away! Can you please go and save her?"
Chen Wu's face was solemn, and he first interrogated the prisoners and bandits.
One prisoner said: "We heard Lai Hu say... that he wanted to take Miss Shen back to the village to be his wife, but then he was knocked unconscious. I really don't know anything else..."
Lai Hu and several bandits said, "I don't know what kind of magic that woman used to knock out so many of us men. She must have run away!"
With these testimonies, Chen Wu felt heavy-hearted.
How could he be so careless? The last time Chen Fenghe caught a wild boar, she was so skilled, but he actually let his guard down towards her just because she saved Xiao Shitou!
Now, I’m afraid that the lives of all my brothers will be ruined in his hands!
Chen Wu originally planned to send people to search the mountains immediately, but the rain suddenly became heavier, and loud noises were heard from the mountain from time to time, which should be the sound of earth and rocks sliding. He had no choice but to give up and let everyone rest in the ruined temple, while sending people to the nearby county government to report the news and ask for help.
I just hope that the county government will give them a lighter punishment considering that they caught the bandits who robbed criminals!
The rain only lasted one night and stopped early the next morning.
Chen Wu looked at the sky and was about to send people to search the mountain.
After a night, Qin Mengyue also became desperate.
However, she still didn't believe that Chen Fenghe had escaped, but instead thought that she might have encountered some accident and was in great danger.
Shen Yichuan got up early in the morning and saw the officers and soldiers about to go out. He suddenly knelt down to Qin Mengyue and said, "Aunt, thank you for taking care of me these days. I... I also want to go to the mountains to find my elder sister. If I can't come back, my younger sister Xing'er... can you please take care of her? I am very grateful!"
As he said this, he kowtowed three times to Qin Mengyue.
When Shen Qingxing heard this, she immediately cried, "Brother, Xing'er also wants to go to the mountains to find my sister! Brother, please don't leave Xing'er alone!"
As he spoke, he knelt down, kowtowed to Qin Mengyue, and said, "Thank you, auntie, for taking care of me these days. Xing'er and brother will now bid farewell."
“Xing’er! It’s dangerous in the mountains, you’d better stay here…” Shen Yichuan spoke up to stop him.
Those officers would definitely not search for a long time. He planned that even if those officers gave up, he would not come back until he found his sister.
So, I'm afraid he won't be able to come back after this trip.
Shen Qingxing held onto his hand tightly and cried, "Brother, we agreed to be with sister and never separate again. Xing'er wants to go with you!"
Shen Yichuan's nose felt a little sour when he heard this, but he still couldn't bear to let her die with him: "Why don't you listen! If you don't listen again, brother won't want you anymore!"
Shen Qingxing was stunned for a moment when she heard this, her nose wrinkled, and she tried hard to hold back her tears, but she couldn't help it and started crying sadly.
However, the hand that was tightly holding Shen Yichuan never let go.
"Brother, don't want Xing'er! Don't leave Xing'er here..."
Seeing Shen Qingxing crying and wanting to leave, Xiao Yunhao also pulled Shen Qingxing's clothes and cried, "Xing'er, don't go! All of you, don't go! Wuwu..."
Qin Mengyue was so sad watching the two brothers and sisters like this that she could only shed tears. She pulled Shen Yichuan and Shen Qingxing to speak, but the Qin family started to speak in a weird way again.
"Tsk! Are you acting like you're acting like you're having a heartbreak? I'm afraid you've already made a plan with that bitch. The brother and sister will go find her together, and then the three of them will run away, right?"
"Some people are just stupid, thinking that little bitch didn't escape!"
"The other day I saw her give the golden hairpin to that little bitch. Now it's all gone to waste! It's hilarious!"
Qin Jinzhong also had a sour face at this time. He said to Qian Qiuyun, "Big Boss's wife, go over and tell that treacherous bitch to destroy the letter of severance. Then we can still be a family and let bygones be bygones!"
Qin Jinzhong was still thinking about selling Qin Mengyue and Xiao Yunhao. Although he was young, he could be worth some money if he was sold to a wealthy family as a servant!
Qian Qiuyun didn't know what Qin Jinzhong was thinking, but she also hoped that Qin Mengyue would come back.
After all, all the laundry and cooking work along the way was done by the women in the family. Although she had become a mother-in-law, she still had to serve Qin Jinzhong and Mrs. Zhang, and there was a lot of work to do.
When Qin Mengyue comes back, won’t all these jobs be Qin Mengyue’s?
"Oh! Father-in-law, I'll go right away! That bitch will definitely be grateful!" Qian Qiuyun said, and was about to go over proudly.
"Big sister, you heard what father-in-law said just now, didn't you? That little bitch has already run away. I think you should know the present and tear up the letter of kinship and come back home! Otherwise, you and your son might starve to death one day!"
Qin Mengyue looked at her and sneered, "Go back? If we go back, the children and I will die even faster! Don't dream on! Even if I, Qin Mengyue, starve to death or die of illness, I will never beg you for help!"
Qian Qiuyun originally thought that Qin Mengyue would never refuse, but now she was rejected again. Just when she was about to say something harsh to vent her anger,
At this moment, a clear and pleasant voice suddenly came from outside the mountain temple: "Who said I ran away?"
