The meal was neither awkward nor lame.
Xu Liang was the most relaxed, but Xiaozhuang and Shi Wu were a little nervous.
After dinner, Xu Liang said he wanted to go upstairs to take a look. Shi Wu didn't understand what he meant and asked curiously, "What to look at?"
"Look at which room Pang Lin died in?"
Shi Wu muttered, "What's so good about this?"
But he still followed her upstairs and told her what had happened.
He just wanted to show off.
But Xu Liang narrowed his eyes and asked, "You mean... there was someone living in this room at that time?"
Shi Wu looked at Chen Yan's room and nodded.
Xu Liang asked back, "Who is it? Didn't he notice the commotion outside?"
Shi Wu actually figured it out later. He knew that Chen Yan and Su Zhuo were suspicious...
It's very likely related to that case.
But he couldn't figure out what the connection was.
Could it be that... Su Zhuo really has an improper relationship with her brother-in-law?
Brother-in-law, brother-in-law...
Shi Wu showed an indescribable smile on his face...
But I can’t tell Xu Liang about this.
"What's suspicious about that? There were so many people there. That man and that woman are obviously not decent people. Naturally, they are afraid of being discovered. They might have run away long ago."
"Woman?" Xu Liang raised his eyebrows: "There are women?"
Shi Wu “…”
"Why are you asking these questions?" Shi Wu looked at him warily.
Xu Liang turned his head and looked at Shi Wu with a cold look. Shi Wu was frightened by his look and took a step back.
"Nothing, just asking."
Xu Liang smiled: "Curious."
Xu Liang left after he finished speaking. Shi Wu stared at his back and said to Xiao Zhuang, "There's definitely something wrong with this kid."
Xiaozhuang didn’t know whether there was a problem or not, he just felt that Xu Liang was very weird.
It makes people feel uncomfortable
"Let's keep an eye on him, maybe we can find something." Shi Wu said.
But Xiaozhuang thought more: "Is there any danger? Let's not do anything rash, otherwise our family will worry..."
Shi Wu pointed at the gate: "Do you see that road?"
Xiaozhuang saw it, of course. He looked at Shi Wu in confusion, "What do you mean?"
Xiaozhuang was still confused, and then he heard Shi Wu say, "Follow this road and turn the corner to reach the Zhuang family. Find Madam Zhuang and ask her to find a wet nurse. You can go home and get your milk..."
Xiaozhuang understood.
"You son of a bitch, Shi Wu, I'm going to beat you to death."
Shi Wu hid and said, "I'm not wrong. You look like you haven't been weaned. You're afraid of this and that..."
However, Xiaozhuang refused to listen and insisted on beating him to death to vent his anger.
…
Xu Liang went out and soon found someone following him.
He sneered.
"Master, what should we do? Should we get rid of these two people?"
Xu Liang shook his head: "Do you know who these two are?"
Of course, his subordinates didn't know.
So Xu Liang said: "One is the son of the Garrison, and the other is the son of the Shi family..."
The subordinate narrowed his eyes: "What a fat sheep..."
Xu Liang breathed a sigh of relief: "Don't touch them for now. If Qingfeng Mountain is targeted by the Northwest Army, we will kidnap the Zhuang family and the Shi family..."
Xu Liang paused, and just as his men were about to nod, he suddenly said, "It's not impossible. This is a good opportunity to teach these people a lesson."
Subordinates "..."
Xu Liang did not go home but went to the clinic. However, Su Wei had already been taken away by Chen Yan. She did not want to stay in the clinic and always felt uncomfortable. When Chen Yan came to get medicine for her, she met Xu Liang.
"Has the Madam gone back?" Xu Liang asked.
Chen Yan nodded.
Xu Liang asked again, seemingly concerned, "Any news about the girl who was taken away?"
Chen Yan didn't say anything, just looked at Xu Liang. Xu Liang was the first to give in: "Can I go see the madam?"
Chen Yan: "It's inconvenient, you are too presumptuous."
He narrowed his eyes, feeling that the timing of this boy's appearance was a bit coincidental, and it was also uncomfortable that he cared so much about Su Wei.
"I see...it seems like you really like this lady."
He deliberately emphasized the words "this lady".
Chen Yan took out some silver to thank him for saving Su Wei.
Xu Liang accepted it without hesitation.
Chen Yan left.
Xu Liang licked his lips.
Chen Yan had only taken a few steps when he realized someone was following him. He took a detour and walked a long way to get rid of the person who was following him.
The kid next door was chewing a steamed bun at the door. When he saw Chen Yan, he made a face and turned and ran away.
Chen Yan entered the yard. Su Wei's injuries were not serious, but she felt a little cold. She asked, "Is there any news about Su Zhuo?"
"Not yet." Chen Yan shook his head.
He felt that Su Zhuo had no problem escaping from the bandits. There was no news yet, so either the bandits were extremely powerful, or Su Zhuo himself didn't want to run away.
Probably want to go up the mountain.
If Su Zhuo can go up the mountain, then their plan will have a high probability of success.
As for the bandits seeking revenge, Chen Yan was not worried. Once he had money, he would take the Su family and go far away to live in a place where no one knew them.
…
Aunt Lan came when she heard that her daughter was injured. She felt so distressed when she saw Su Wei that she went to the kitchen to make pig's trotter soup for Su Wei to nourish his body without saying a word.
After the soup was ready, she talked about Su Zhuo again.
"They're all so worrying. I wonder where they've all gone?" Aunt Lan asked Su Wei, "Mom hasn't asked you how you got hurt yet?"
Su Wei glanced at Chen Yan, and Chen Yan said, "Suddenly a carriage rushed out..."
It’s not uncommon for people to be trampled to death by horses. Aunt Lan was frightened for a while. She talked about Su Wei for a while, then Su Zhuo, and finally the banker.
"Mrs. Zhuang's sons are all very good, but this little Zhuang is always making trouble outside. Today, he even had a fight with the kid from the Shi family. Both of them were injured. It makes Mrs. Zhuang very sad..."
Aunt Lan sighed: "We are all young and hot-tempered. Why can't we talk things out peacefully instead of fighting?"
Su Wei nodded, obviously a little distracted because he was worried about Su Zhuo.
She didn't dare tell Aunt Lan and could only sigh secretly, hoping that her father and Su Zhuo could return safely to accept Aunt Lan's wrath.
Su Zhuo, who was the concern of everyone, had already left the city.
No one knew how these people did it. When he opened his eyes, he was in the carriage. He leaned over and looked around, only to see endless mountains and barren grasslands.
In this season, the grass leaves are yellow and it is very cold in the wild. Su Zhuo wore thin clothes to look good, and he was shivering from the cold.
So he said to the man driving the cart, "Brother, I...I'm cold."
Big Brother “…”
What to do if it’s cold?
He looked Su Zhuo up and down, and Su Zhuo asked, "Do you have any thick clothes?"
Big Brother has it, but if Big Brother gives it to you, Big Brother will have to endure the cold...
"Brother..." Su Zhuo looked at his brother pitifully.
"Here you go." The eldest brother took off his clothes and gave them to Su Zhuo. Su Zhuo put them on and felt much warmer. As for the eldest brother outside, he was in a miserable situation. The car was running fast and the cold wind outside could chill people to the bone in an instant.
By the time we arrived at Qingfeng Mountain, the strong and healthy elder brother was already sneezing non-stop.
