Farm widows have space, pick up a treasure on the way to escape

Now the person and time have been determined, but we don’t know who he was coerced by.

Lu Baichuan asked again: "Brother Zhang, have you seen him interacting with any suspicious people before?"

This time, Zhang Youwei shook his head: "That's not true. I guess such behavior is not visible to the light, so I don't dare to interact in such an open and honest manner."

"Then do you know where he lives?"

Zhang Youwei continued to shake his head: "Only one time when he asked me for pancakes, he said that he had nowhere to go and lived with the sky as his quilt and the earth as his bed."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Jiuniang said: "This is not credible. What he told you is that he was threatened by his family members. It is impossible that he does not have family members. On the contrary, since his family members can be arrested casually, it means they are also common people in the city. Of course, this depends on the fact that what he said about his family being arrested is true."

So, now there are two possibilities. One is that the Taoist priest's family was really arrested and he was threatened and had to help others. The other is that he was the leader of this lie and no one coerced him. .

As for what exactly is going on, we still have to conduct an in-depth investigation to find out.

"Thank you, Brother Zhang. This information is very important."

Lu Baichuan thanked him sincerely. They thought that the Taoist priest might be from Dongting before and thought about it in a more complicated direction, but now it seems a bit simpler.

"Hey, I can't help much either."

Zhang Youwei smiled sheepishly and said, "I will pay more attention when I set up the stall tomorrow. If there is any news, I will tell you tomorrow night!"

"Okay, just in time we got news that there will be a treasure in Xilai Building tomorrow. We just want to go take a look."

"Yes, yes, since this incident broke out, Xilailou's business has been very good. It is said that this event was organized by the owner of Xilailou. Go and take a look, maybe there will be clues."

The couple looked at each other, the owner of Xilailou?This is interesting.

Sister-in-law Zhang pulled Jiang Jiuniang and said, "There are many people in that kind of place. It's inconvenient for you to have a big belly, so don't go there. I'll come find you tomorrow and talk to you."

Sensing Sister-in-law Zhang's kindness, Jiang Jiuniang did not refuse and nodded in agreement.

Originally, she had no intention of going with him. First of all, she was a little tired from traveling during this period. Moreover, it was really unsafe with so many people tomorrow. She didn't dare to mess around with her belly.

After returning from Zhang's house, Lu Baichuan boiled water for Jiang Jiuniang to take a bath. While she was taking a bath, he unpacked all the packages that everyone helped move into the house today and laid them out by category.

Although the villagers were very familiar with the original things at home, they did not directly deal with the things they brought. This sense of propriety was so good that he personally did the pig killing in the evening as a way to thank everyone. help.

When Jiang Jiuniang came out of the shower, Lu Baichuan had already packed up and naturally went to help her dry her hair.

Jiang Jiuniang closed her eyes and enjoyed it, and said: "I didn't expect to be in such a situation when I came back this time. Although few of them are old acquaintances, the new villagers are also very easy to get along with, no worse than the fellow villagers in Daling County."

"Well, sincerity for sincerity, we treat them well, and they can repay us with sincerity, which is really rare."

Lu Baichuan's voice was gentle, and then he said: "I will take the dog out tomorrow. You can rest at home. If you need help, ask Sister-in-law Zhang for help. I will come to thank you when I come back."

"In my opinion, Xilailou's activities are inseparable from the people behind the scenes. I want to find an opportunity to investigate the owner of Xilailou..."

He patiently told her his plan, but he saw the little woman in front of him had her back turned to him, her head moving little by little, and she had obviously begun to doze off.

He didn't say anything, he just speeded up to help her dry her hair, then picked her up and sent her to bed.

Next to Lu Baichuan, Jiang Jiuniang was not wary. She lay down and turned over and continued to sleep.

Lu Baichuan felt helpless when he saw her sleeping soundly, and went out to get a bucket of cold water to wash himself off.

His wife has been pregnant for several months now, and he is already used to it.The dog had already washed up and was reading a book. It happened that he came out to use the toilet at this time. When he saw the cold water brought by his father, he worriedly asked: "Dad, why don't you use hot water?"

"The hot water is out and I'm too lazy to boil it."

He didn't hesitate at all when it came to fooling his son.

But the dog was really worried about him. He ran to the kitchen to take a look and said doubtfully: "Dad, there is still hot water in the pot!"

Lu Baichuan said calmly: "Forget it, go do your thing, I'm fine."

The dog was still a little worried. It was still early spring and a cold bath would really make him sick.

So, he couldn't help but start to wonder if his father and mother were having a bad temper, so his father deliberately wanted to make himself sick in order to make his mother care about him.

Tsk tsk, the dog felt that he had discovered the truth.

So, he decided to find an opportunity to talk to his mother about being angry in moderation. If his father got sick, he would not be able to take care of her.

Early the next morning, Lu Baichuan got up early and went to work in the kitchen.

Yesterday, the enthusiastic villagers gave them rice, noodles, vegetables and other things. They were originally going to give them money, but no one wanted them. After all, they all gave pork.

Since they were all neighbors, they didn't refuse anymore and just wanted to leave something for them when they left.

Jiang Jiuniang slept well, and the barking dogs and roosters in the village did not disturb her sleep. She slept until three o'clock in the morning. By this time, Lu Baichuan and Gou'er had already set off for Xilai Tower.

There was a small note on the table telling her that the food was warm in the pot.

Jiang Jiuniang was just pregnant, not that she couldn't take care of herself. She went to wash herself, and then sat in the kitchen to eat. She just felt that such a life was really good.

The courtyard door was pushed open from the outside, and it was Sister-in-law Zhang who came. She thought Jiang Jiuniang hadn't woken up yet, so she walked very lightly, but when she saw Jiang Jiuniang was already sitting in the kitchen eating, she instantly smiled and rolled her eyes.

"I thought you weren't awake yet! I'll bring you some food. I just steamed the meat buns, try them!"

She sat next to him very casually, warm and lovable, just like she had been many years ago.

"Thank you sister-in-law!"

Jiang Jiuniang was not polite, she took it and started chewing it.

The steamed buns made by Sister-in-law Zhang turned out to be soup dumplings. They were a little hot, but they tasted really good. Jiang Jiuniang praised them as she ate them, as if they were the most delicious steamed buns she had ever eaten.

"Mother Jiu, my sister-in-law can see that you have really lived a good life these years. Your temperament has undergone a huge change. It's great! But it's also true that your family not only went to Jingzhou to settle down, but also settled down with the third child. Meeting each other is truly a blessing from God, and you can be considered happy after all your hardships."

Sister-in-law Zhang had a look of emotion on her face. Thinking of the former Jiang Jiuniang, she felt really distressed beyond words.

"Hey, sometimes I have no choice but to change. I only changed when I was on the way to escape from famine. There were bandits and government officials blocking people along the way. If I were still as timid as before, I'm afraid both me and the dog would be in trouble. Can’t live!”

Jiang Jiuniang found a reasonable explanation for her gender change.

Sister-in-law Zhang nodded repeatedly as she listened, with tears in her eyes. It was really hard to escape the famine back then.

Seeing her like this, Jiang Jiuniang was afraid that she would really cry, so she turned to say: "Sister-in-law Zhang, I have studied medicine with a doctor over the years, and I have made some achievements. Why don't I give you a safe pulse?" (this chapter) over)
