Feng Qiaoer immediately stopped Old Man Feng's thoughts and came to the yamen alone. In fact, she knew better than anyone what was happening with Headman Xu, but she still had to pretend to know nothing in front of outsiders.
Feng Qiao'er quietly walked up to an official and asked, "Brother, I'd like to ask if Xu Wentao is here?"
"Are you looking for Chief Xu?"
The officer examined Feng Qiao'er for a long time, then asked, "Miss, who are you, Chief Xu?"
Feng Qiaoer covered her mouth with her hands and giggled.
"Brother, you are really joking. Look at how I dress like a woman, and you actually call me a girl? I am the wife of the head of the village, Xu. Brother, you can call me Madam Xu."
"So it's my sister-in-law?"
The officer looked at Feng Qiaoer in surprise. He didn't expect that Xu Wentao was so old, but his wife was so young and beautiful. No wonder Xu Wentao looked so radiant recently. This really proved the saying that people feel refreshed when they are happy.
Feng Qiaoer also responded politely.
"Hello, big brother, have you seen our Wentao? Ever since Fengyun Town was closed, my Wentao hasn't been home for many days. Thinking that the town would finally reopen today, I was worried that something might have happened to my Wentao, so I rushed to the government office as soon as possible.
Brother, is my Wentao okay? "
The official really envied Xu Wentao for marrying a virtuous and beautiful wife, but when he thought about the possibility that Xu Wentao might be in trouble, he hesitated and said, "Sister-in-law... Sister-in-law, before Village Chief Xu closed Fengyun Town, he... he had already returned home. This morning, a Shu girl from your village also came to the yamen to inquire about Village Chief Xu, and I... told her the same thing at the time."
"A girl named Shu? Are you talking about Shu Jiaying?"
"I'm not sure if her name is what you just said, but she's a little strange because she's always wearing a mask."
As soon as the word "mask" was mentioned, Feng Qiaoer was certain that the person the officer was talking about was Shu Jiaying. She thought that Shu Jiaying already knew about her and Shu Guozhong, and what if this ugly guy linked the disappearance of Village Chief Xu to her.
Feng Qiaoer knew Shu Jiaying was not someone to be trifled with, so she immediately started crying, "Brother, as you said, my Wentao should have returned to town a few days ago, but he hasn't come home yet. I think he's in great danger, and now there's Shu Jiaying from our village.
I heard from people in Guangming Village that Shu Jiaying knows everything about astronomy and geography. Now even she has come to find Wentao. It seems that it will be difficult for Wentao to pass this hurdle.
Wuuuuu... I just got married to Wentao. If he just leaves me like this, what should I do in the future?
Zhitao...Zhitao, where are you?"
Feng Qiao'er cried so sincerely that the official next to her felt a little embarrassed, but he still comforted her: "Sister-in-law, I think my brother must have gone somewhere else. He will come home by himself in a few days."
"Wuwuwu... Big brother, I know you said this because you don't want me to be sad. In fact, your big brother hasn't been home for a few days. At that time, I already had an ominous premonition. Now, after hearing your personal testimony at the government office, I already know what your big brother is like. Wuwuwu... Now I don't know what to say. Now I can only blame my bad luck. I can't grow old with your big brother..."
"sister in law……"
The more sadly Feng Qiaoer cried, the more confused the officials felt.
Feng Qiao'er had almost finished watching the performance, so she ended it by saying, "Brother, although I'm sad, I still have to live my life. I...I'm going back first."
