Si Jinxing's heart tightened, and he saw Qingchan step forward to block him behind him, and said:
"Who are you? Why are you stopping my young lady?"
She suddenly remembered that she had put on men's makeup when she went to Baifulou today. After she returned, she washed her face and when she came out again, she was not wearing any makeup!
As they heard this, they became even more confused!
His eyes turned cold. This person was clearly a rich lady, yet he pretended to be Gu Anxu's apprentice. And he still said he was a pitiful person?!
Who is she?
I think this matter must be related to Gu Anxu!
He looked at the woman who had remained silent and asked in a cold voice:
"Young Master, why are you silent? What's the matter? You haven't seen me for just one day, and you're already pretending not to know me?"
Si Jinxing asked doubtfully, "Sir, what is your name? Have we met before?"
There was someone who was just getting off his horse and reminded:
"Young sir, you are truly forgetful. You were a guest at my home yesterday. Do you remember?"
Si Jinxing shook his head and said, "Master, you've mistaken me for someone else. We just arrived in Xuzhou City today. How could we have been to your house before?"
Qing Chan also said, "This is strange. Why are the people in Xuzhou so rude? They stop people on the street and say weird things."
He was always cautious there. His eyes stayed on the veil and he said bluntly:
"In that case, I am being rude.
But what the young lady doesn’t know is that the young man is actually a thief!
I am now looking everywhere, and coincidentally, the person is dressed very similarly to you, young lady.
I wonder if you could reveal your true identity to me so I can put my mind at ease. Otherwise, I will have no choice but to ask you to go to the government office.”
Song Xiner frowned and said, "Our young lady is walking down the street just fine, why do you say that she only cares about her looks?
Isn't it just that whoever said "find a thief" can watch it if he wants to? "
The correct thing to do there was to stop talking and just stare intently at the woman in the veiled hat in front of him.
Song Xiner felt unhappy. How could her benefactor's face be shown in the street like this?
She was about to argue with him again, but was stopped by Si Jinxing.
Si Jinxing said softly, "Since we are here, we should make the best of it. Since this master is worried, it won't hurt for me to give him a look!"
Instead of letting him doubt himself or even go to find Gu Anxu, it is better to let him see a completely different face!
She reached out and lifted up the white veil of her veil, revealing a bright and beautiful face!
The man was staring at the girl in front of him with his mouth wide open, his mind suddenly in chaos!
This outfit, this posture, and this veil hat are exactly the same as the young man with a face full of pits and scars yesterday!
Why is it that the face under this veil is so different!
Seeing that the man was still staring at his princess, Qing Chan immediately dodged and blocked Si Jinxing behind him, shouting angrily:
"What are you doing, you old bald thief? It looks like you're not going to stop, is it?
My young lady is kindly asking you to distinguish clearly. If you dare to behave like a hooligan in the street, I will drag you before the authorities!"
Song Xiner scolded while helping Si Jinxing fix her veil and hat:
"How come there are all kinds of people in this world? Shameless, bah!"
He was being scolded by two girls in the street when he finally came to his senses.
I saw that the girl in the veiled hat had turned around, her shoulders heaving as if she was crying.
It seems that I really recognized the wrong person!
He immediately bowed and clasped his fists, saying sincerely, "I apologize for being rude. Please don't blame me, young lady. I'll take my leave."
Qing Chan waved his hand and said coldly, "Goodbye."
Only when he got on his horse and rode away did Si Jinxing turn around and look at the man's figure.
Further west on this street is the Jia Mansion.
Could it be that the matter was discovered?
She turned to look at Qing Chan and said, "Tell Bai Xi to inform Gu Anxu and tell him to be careful."
She took Song Xiner for another stroll, using the excuse of shopping to get to know the people's living conditions. When Qingchan returned, they went to Baifulou together.
Song Xiner, on the other hand, returned to the house first, carrying the things she had just bought!
However, the more Song Xiner walked, the more she felt that someone was following her!
She walked faster and faster, looking back from time to time, but the people behind her were all in a hurry, so how could anyone follow her?
Song Xiner patted her forehead. Could it be that she was tired from being tormented by that fat boy recently?
She continued walking forward, turned into the alley, and returned to the house.
But outside the alley, a figure suddenly appeared.
The man had a sneer on his thin face. He looked down at his right hand, which was bare and the entire palm was neatly cut off!
This person was none other than Liu Xitang, the nephew of Liu Zuhe, the magistrate of Qingcheng County!
He never expected that he would see a man teasing a woman in the street while just strolling on the street. He was crossing his arms to watch the fun, but unexpectedly saw Song Xiner!
And Song Xiner was rescued by a woman wearing a veiled hat.
It was the woman in the veiled hat who cut it off with a sword!
Now, he has found where they are staying. It is really God’s help!
When they arrived at the Jia Mansion, they were told: Mr. Jia is currently at the yamen accompanying the imperial envoy!
The housekeeper invited the person into the front hall, asked the servants to serve tea, and asked the headman to wait for a while.
But this matter was so serious that Li Zheng felt a little restless in the hall, so he stood up and paced back and forth in the hall.
Somehow, he thought of the woman in the veiled hat he had just met on the street.
The image of that woman and the image of the young man from yesterday kept overlapping in his mind...
The more he thought about it, the more he felt something was fishy!
The village head suddenly stood up, walked out of the house quickly, jumped on his horse, and headed towards Baifulou!
Even if the woman just now was not the young master from yesterday, the matter of the ancestral hall was closely related to that young master, so Gu Anxu must have been involved!
But his old man is still in the hands of the miracle doctor introduced by Gu Anxu!
When he arrived, the two servants who were left at Baifu Building immediately came up to greet him and asked, "Master, why are you here?"
The village head glanced at the stairwell and asked, "Has anyone in there come out?"
The two looked at each other, and one of them replied:
"No one came out, and no one went in. The door was always closed."
The head of the village frowned slightly. More than two hours had passed, and he didn't need to eat, drink or walk around?
He immediately strode up the stairs, walked to the outside of the room, and knocked on the door hurriedly, saying, "My name is Ding, please open the door."
He knocked for a long time, but no one came to open the door.
The headman's heart sank. Just as he was about to kick the door open and go in to find out what was going on, he heard a creaking sound.
The door was opened from the inside.
