Chapter 214 The Truth Comes to Light
"Miao Miao, are you okay? They didn't say anything, did they?" When Gu Yuan's mother saw Xu Miaomiao coming back, she immediately went forward anxiously.
Xu Miaomiao shook her head: "They didn't blame us for anything, but this matter must be resolved by us."
"Then what good solution is there now?" Song Weiwei supported her head and looked at Xu Miaomiao with some dismay.
"Now we need to find the culprit first." Xu Miaomiao pondered for a moment and said, "Everyone can pretend to be pitiful. People only sympathize with the weak."
"Madam Xu, Madam Liu, and Wei Wei are all here."
Xu Qingshan walked in carrying Dabao and Xiaobao, looked at them slumped at the table and said, "I just bought some sweet and soft pastries. Come and try them."
Opening a pastry, Xu Qingshan stuffed a piece into everyone's hands, then handed the piece in his own hand to Gu Yuanniang.
Seeing Xu Qingshan's look, Gu Yuan's mother glared at him unhappily.
"By the way, Madam Xu, I wrote you a letter a long time ago, why did you come back so late?" Thinking of the important matter, Xu Qingshan spoke solemnly.
"Letter?" Xu Miaomiao tilted her head in confusion. What letter? She had never received one.
"Didn't you receive it?" Xu Qingshan was stunned: "I clearly sent it out."
"Where was it sent?" Xu Miaomiao looked at Xu Qingshan anxiously and said, this letter that had not been sent might be the biggest clue.
"It's at the post office." Xu Qingshan was a little confused.
"About how often do letters get delivered every day?"
"Every noon, looking at the sky, we should have just reached the city gate." Looking outside the house, Xu Qingshan looked at Xu Miaomiao calmly and said.
"Oh no." Xu Miaomiao was shocked and ran out without stopping.
Gu Yuanniang and Song Weiweiwei behind her were still a little confused, but they still followed Xu Miaomiao and went out with her.
In such a hurry that he even forgot to ride the carriage, Xu Miaomiao ran all the way and finally arrived at the city gate. There was an endless stream of caravans coming and going. Xu Miaomiao pulled the person next to him and started asking questions.
"Has the postal team left today?" Xu Miaomiao looked at the soldier and said.
The soldier in front of him looked Xu Miaomiao up and down, and pushed her aside unhappily: "Who do you think you are? How dare you ask about our affairs?"
Realizing that she was a little anxious, Xu Miaomiao calmed down and took out some change from her sleeve and handed it to the man: "My dear, I was wrong. Consider this as my treat for you. I hope you can do me a favor."
Seeing the small change in Xu Miaomiao's hand, the man coughed twice and put the money away calmly: "I'm not in charge of this post office. You're asking the wrong person."
"You've been guarding the door, how could you not know?" Xu Miaomiao was a little excited, and her voice became louder as she looked at the man.
"What are you yelling about!" The man pushed Xu Miaomiao in dissatisfaction and continued, "I said I don't know, and I don't know. How dare you ask about our affairs?"
"What are you doing!" Gu Yuanniang and Song Weiwei hurried over and saw the soldier pushing Xu Miaomiao. They walked forward with dissatisfaction.
"Hey, you guys are looking for trouble, right?"
Several soldiers raised their swords without hesitation and looked at Xu Miaomiao seriously.
"stop!"
A rough voice came from behind, and the man came out and looked at everyone.
Xu Miaomiao recognized that this was A Da who had helped them before.
"Madam Xu, why are you here?"
When Ah Da saw Xu Miaomiao, he immediately stepped forward. Seeing that the soldiers next to him were making things difficult for them, he glared at them unhappily.
The soldier immediately stepped aside, not daring to speak.
"Ada, I'm in some trouble, please help me."
"Mrs. Xu, don't worry. If you can help me, I will definitely help you."
Ever since he captured those people from Liang Country last time, he has admired Xu Miaomiao even more.
"I want to know if the postman left the city today?"
Although he didn't know what Xu Miaomiao and the others were doing, Ah Da still pointed out their location to her considerately: "They're right there. They haven't left the city yet."
Following the direction Ah Da pointed, Xu Miaomiao ran over anxiously.
Thinking of something, he went back halfway to bring Gu Yuanniang along.
"Sixth Lady, please check if those people are inside."
"Um."
Gu Yuanniang listened to Xu Miaomiao's words and looked at the people in front of her. When they saw Gu Yuanniang approaching, they all frowned and said, "You little lady, you are so rude. How can you keep staring at a group of grown men like us?"
After being told this, Gu Yuanniang felt a little embarrassed, but she still looked at the person and shook her head at Xu Miaomiao.
Just when Xu Miaomiao was wondering, Song Weiwei seemed to have discovered something and immediately walked over and pulled off the hood of the woman sitting in the car.
"It's you!" Song Weiwei immediately shouted loudly: "You are that man's wife."
Seeing Song Weiwei say this, the woman's eyes suddenly turned red, and she said aggrievedly: "Why are you unwilling to let us go!"
"Weiwei, come back."
Xu Miaomiao pulled the impulsive Song Weiwei back, sizing up the woman's hospitality. She saw her eyes wandering under the car, and she whispered a few words to Ada next to her.
"Okay, Madam Xu."
A Da understood what Xu Miaomiao meant, and walked up with a group of people.
"Sir, what is this?" The man leading the caravan looked at Ada with some confusion and asked.
"Routine check."
"Didn't we just check it?" the man asked with some guilt and confusion.
"What? Can't you check it again?" Ada's tone at this moment was completely different from when he was facing Xu Miaomiao. There was more determination that could not be disobeyed.
Seeing him like this, the man couldn't stop him.
Ah Da took the scabbard and lifted the straw mat, and a living person stood out.
"Why are you hiding someone here?"
A Da looked at the man and spoke.
The man who was discovered wanted to escape, but was immediately stopped by the soldiers next to him.
This farce attracted quite a few people, and everyone gathered around out of curiosity.
Seeing this, the man wanted to pretend to faint, but was exposed.
"Isn't this man dead?"
Everyone looked at the living man in front of them and spoke curiously, thinking that this was a scam, and began to talk about it.
Xu Miaomiao squeezed out a few tears and said, "My husband, we don't know what has offended you. Why do you use such a despicable method on us?"
Who doesn't know how to pretend to be pitiful? Since this world sympathizes with the weak, then from this moment on, they are the weak.
"It's not easy for a few women like us to open a store, how can we be subjected to such false accusations by you?"
