Chapter 426: It turns out to be a fellow villager
Girl?
Could it be this "distant relative"? After hearing Zhang San's words, Wei Changtian and Chu Xianping looked at each other, and their thoughts were exactly the same.
"Sir, I'll go out and take a look first."
Chu Xianping immediately frowned and stood up, ready to test the situation for Wei Changtian.
However, the latter didn't care much about it. He wiped his mouth and stood up: "No need, I've finished eating anyway, let's eat together."
"It just so happens that I have to go to the Ministry of War."
"yes."
Chu Xianping no longer insisted after hearing this, but Xu Qingwan and Lu Jingyao, who had also finished their meal, suddenly came over.
"Changtian, are you going out?"
Xu Qingwan asked in a low voice: "If it's on the way, can you send me and Sister Lu to Yingfengsheng?"
"Um?"
Wei Changtian stopped and looked at the two women, and immediately understood what was going on.
There was more than one carriage in the house, so the two women obviously heard what Zhang San said, so they wanted to see who this girl who "came to the door on her own initiative" was.
Good fellow, it's not surprising that Lu Jingyao would act like this, but when did Comrade Xiao Xu also learn bad things? Could it be that the close association with bad people leads to bad behavior?
"Okay, let's go together."
Wei Changtian smiled but did not expose the two girls' little thoughts. After agreeing, he led a group of people towards the courtyard gate.
A man of integrity has nothing to fear!
He has always acted "openly and honestly", even visiting brothels is open and aboveboard, so this woman is definitely not a bad lover or something like that.
It is estimated that he is either a distant relative of his, or a "person with lofty ideals" who is willing to join him.
Anyway, there was nothing shameful about either of them, so Wei Changtian's mentality at this time was particularly "open", and he even talked and laughed with Xu Qingwan along the way.
In this way, everyone quickly walked out of the mansion and met the woman waiting outside.
Well, she is about twenty years old and looks pretty, but she is much inferior to Xu Qingwan and others.
She was wearing a green long skirt. The material looked expensive, but it was dirty and even had many small holes in it.
Simply put, her dusty appearance made her look very much like a wealthy woman whose family had fallen on hard times.
“.”
"Who among you is Wei Changtian?"
As if frightened by the sudden appearance of a group of people in front of her, the woman took a step back alertly, while constantly looking at Wei Changtian, Zhang San and Chu Xianping.
Wei Changtian felt amused and took a step forward.
"I am."
"I wonder who the girl is? What do you want from me?"
“.”
One sentence "Who among you is Wei Changtian?", one sentence "Who is the girl?"
The two people's reactions now clearly showed that they did not know each other before, which also made Xu Qingwan and Lu Jingyao secretly relieved.
However, before they could finish their breath, they were both stunned the next moment.
Because the woman who heard the answer suddenly pursed her lips, and tears filled her eyes in an instant.
"Wei Changtian!"
"Woohoo! I, I finally found you!"
"Do you know how long it takes to get from Daqian to Daning? Woo woo woo"
"You, you know how difficult it has been for me along the way!!"
“Woo, woo, woo.”
In an instant, tears welled up.
The woman's crying sounded both excited and aggrieved. At first glance, it sounded like a poor young wife finally finding the unfaithful man who abandoned her.
Everyone was dumbfounded for a moment, and Wei Changtian was even more confused.
From Daqian? Where is Daqian?
What do you mean you finally found me?
"Um, girl"
Wei Changtian opened his mouth, ready to get to the bottom of things.
However, the woman cried harder and harder, and finally ran over wiping her tears, apparently ready to throw herself into Wei Changtian's arms to relieve her pain of "missing him".
I can't recognize myself, but I act like this.
At this point anyone could see that there was something wrong with this woman, so without waiting for Wei Changtian to speak, Zhang San and Chu Xianping drew their swords together, and in just a moment two shining long swords were placed on the woman's neck.
"You, you guys."
The latter was so frightened that he stopped immediately, his eyes full of fear.
Wei Changtian frowned and looked at her, then spoke slowly, word by word: "Next, I will ask a question and you answer it."
"If you say another word of nonsense, you will die."
"Do you understand?"
“.”
The woman's Adam's apple moved, and her tears were frightened back. Her body was shaking with fear.
But Wei Changtian showed no sympathy for her. After a short pause, he asked directly and coldly:
"What's your name?"
“.”
"say!"
"ah!"
The woman shuddered, and replied weakly, wanting to cry but unable to, "Xu Sui. Ah no, Xu, Xu Sui Sui"
Xu Sui Sui? What's the name? Wei Changtian curled his lips and continued to ask: "You said you came from Daqian?"
"No. Ah, yes, yes!"
"Is it true or not?!"
“Yes, yes.”
"So you came to see me on purpose?"
"yes"
"What do you want from me?"
“.”
The woman named Xu Suisui moved her lips hesitantly and muttered something in a low voice.
Wei Changtian's face suddenly turned serious: "Louder!"
"What's so fierce about it?"
Xu Suisui didn't seem to be so scared at this time, but he still raised his voice a little bit and said: "I want to go to you"
"To me?"
Wei Changtian laughed dumbly: "Do I know you?"
“I don’t know”
"Then don't you think what you said is funny?"
"Hmm?!"
It was originally just a sneer full of disdain, but Xu Suisui's eyes suddenly widened after hearing this.
The next moment, she even forgot the long knife on her neck and took a step forward with excitement on her face.
"funny!"
"Y-You just said something funny!"
"I, I knew it! You are. Ugh!!"
Amidst the gazes of the crowd as if he were mentally retarded, Xu Suisui was so excited that he wanted to say something.
But just when the most crucial half sentence was about to come out, Wei Changtian's face suddenly changed and he covered her mouth first.
"Mmmm! Mmmmm!"
Although her mouth was covered, Xu Suisui still grabbed Wei Changtian's sleeve tightly with great excitement, as if she was afraid that the latter would run away.
Seeing this, Zhang San and Chu Xianping were afraid that something might happen to Wei Changtian, so they took a step forward and tried to subdue her.
But Wei Changtian suddenly waved his hand to stop their actions.
"Put away the knife."
"Zhang San, go prepare a secret room. I have something to discuss with Miss Xu alone."
"yes"
Zhang San looked at Chu Xianping with some surprise, then turned around and hurried back to the yard.
Wei Changtian paused for a moment, then said to Chu Xianping, "Brother Chu, go check who Miss Xu has met since she came to Shuzhou."
"If they are ordinary people, just give them more money to shut their mouths."
"If there are spies from other families, kill them all."
“.”
"Yes, sir, I'll do it right away."
After taking a deep look at Wei Changtian, Chu Xianping quickly left.
At this point, the only ones still standing in front of the mansion gate were Xu Qingwan and Lu Jingyao, who both looked stunned.
"Well, go to Yingfengsheng by yourselves. I won't send you off."
Turning around, Wei Changtian still covered Xu Suisui's mouth, and said to the two girls with a smile: "Nothing is wrong here, you don't have to worry."
"It's just meeting a fellow villager."
