Wang's little lady

After the meal, Zhao Jinyuan knew what was going on and didn't stay long, so he left with the others.

The Xie family has a lot of things going on today, and the family definitely wants to get together in peace, and it just so happens that he has to go back and report the results of this trip to his family.

"Let's meet again tomorrow. Thank you very much, madam, for your hospitality. I'll take my leave." Zhao Jinyuan said goodbye to Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Zhang.

Then he saw Meng Da and the other three people standing aside, and he couldn't help but say:
"Do you three want to leave with us?"

The Xie family is all a generation of women. It's getting late, and if a few grown men stay here, it's easy to attract criticism, so it's better to leave together.

Meng and the other three smiled awkwardly and did not reply. Instead, they looked at Hongdou and let her make the decision.

Logically speaking, they should leave after eating, but the Xie family girl still had instructions.

"Mr. Zhao, I still have something to tell Brother Meng and the others, so I won't go with you."

"You should go back and rest first, so as not to worry your family."

Zhao Jinyuan came back today. The other members of the Zhao family must have received his family letter in advance. It's already this hour and they haven't returned yet. The elders in the family must be waiting impatiently.

Seeing that Hongdou rejected his kindness again, Zhao Jinyuan didn't want to cause trouble, but once again complained in his heart that Hongdou didn't know a good heart.

After Zhao Jinyuan left, Hongdou asked Meng San carefully about following Wang Dalang, hoping to get some useful information.

Fortunately, Meng San did not disappoint her and told her everything he knew in the inn.

"The relationship between that girl and Wang Dalang must be unusual. I was watching from a distance downstairs. As soon as the Wang boy entered, a maid came out to guard him. Who knows what he was doing inside."

Meng San thought of this and curled his lips. This man named Wang is just a sanctimonious villain who has studied for so many years in vain.

"After he left, I took the opportunity to go upstairs and eavesdrop on the conversation between the young lady and the maid. If my guess is correct, these two people should be a pair of lovers."

"He also said that Wang Dalang would not harm her and his father."

He didn't know the rest. After all, the maid was guarding outside at first, so he couldn't hear much. When he went up later, he couldn't hear anything useful.

Little lover?
Hongdou couldn't help but think of one of the reasons why the Wang family insisted on breaking off the engagement with her, which was because he had married the wife of the county town.

It seemed that the wife's daughter had taken a liking to him.

Could it be that the young lover who can now have a relationship with Wang Dalang is the girl from his wife's family?

But would the daughter of a teacher really do such a derogatory thing for a man with an uncertain future?

"Brother Meng, if you have time tomorrow, you can use some money to go to the inn and find out where this girl is from."

"Ask someone to go to the county seat to ask Wang Dalang's current wife's name and confirm whether it is related to this girl."

"Brother Meng, help me keep an eye on Wang Dalang's activities these days, and then help me find someone to keep an eye on the Taoist priest. If you have any news, please inform me at any time."

When Xiaoya comes back, he will tell him where the Taoist priest is currently staying.

Although I had a general guess in my mind, in order not to wrong others, it was better to confirm it.

Hongdou then took out some money and handed it to the two of them. They still had to spend the money that should be spent.

"Brother Meng, Zhuangzi still needs manpower. You go back today and keep an eye on things at Zhuangzi."

Hongdou arranged the affairs of the three of them and let them go and do their own things. After confirming the identity of the girl, she would go and have a good meeting.

After the three people left, Hongdou helped clean up the dishes and let several children gather to play. By the way, he asked Brother Tuan:

"Brother Tuan, are you going to Mr. Xu's place tomorrow? If you don't want to go, my sister will ask for leave for you. You can rest for a few days."

After all, at such a young age, it was already very difficult for her to still be able to talk to them properly after this incident.She didn't want her brother to be too sensible and hold back his grievances alone:

"Sister suggests that you rest at home for a few days, and your husband will understand."

When Mrs. Xie heard Hongdou's words, she thought it was reasonable. If it were any other child, she would have been so scared that she would have been hiding in her room and not daring to go out.

"Your sister is right. If you feel uncomfortable or scared, you have to say do you know?"

"Sleep with grandma tonight, grandma will stay with you, ah."

Mrs. Zhang on the side also felt that this should be the case. Her son might have nightmares at night, so it would be reassuring to have an adult with him.

But Brother Tuan had his own ideas at a young age. He knew that his grandmother, mother and sister were worried about him, but he still shook his head and said seriously:
"I'm going to study with my husband tomorrow."

Seeing that Mrs. Xie and Mr. Zhang wanted to say more, Brother Tuan continued, "But I can sleep with grandma and mother at night."

This makes grandma and mother feel at ease.

Hongdou looked at his younger brother who showed no sign of reluctance on his face and confirmed:

"Are you sure it doesn't matter? You have the right to be willful and fearful. You don't have to consider it for us. You should follow your own heart."

Brother Tuan knew that even if he was lazy at home, his sister would spoil him, but he didn't want to.

He raised his head and said to Hongdou with a smile: "Sister, I'm sure, I want to continue studying and don't want to miss my homework. Xie Er and I are not afraid today."

"I know my sister will definitely come to save us." He always believed it.

Xie Er, who was following Brother Tuan, nodded in agreement: "Don't worry, Master, I'm not afraid either. I will take good care of the young master."

As he spoke, he straightened his small body, indicating that he was really not afraid and could continue working.

Today Xie Er also suffered a terrible disaster. It is not easy to maintain such a character at such a young age.

"Now that you have decided, let's go to Mr. Xu's class as usual tomorrow. Mr. Xu is also worried today, so you should go and say thank you in person."

Brother Tuan nodded heavily.

Hongdou continued to look at Xie San and Xie Si next to Brother Tuan. Today, she was able to rush to Mr. Xu in time, and these two people played a major role.

"Xie San and Xie Si have contributed a lot today. If you hadn't informed Brother Meng in time, I wouldn't have been able to rush there in time."

The children in the family are all good, and she wants to reward them well.
"If I have free time tomorrow, I'll make some fried crispy pork and braised meat as a reward for you, and buy you some snacks. Is that possible?"

Brother Tuan, Xie Ersansi said in unison: "Okay~"

Knock, knock, the door was knocked again, it was probably Xiaoya who was back.Hongdou let the children play on their own and opened the door by herself.

After Xiaoya came in, Hongdou was not in a hurry to ask her. Xiaoya should be hungry by now:

"Eat first and talk later."

Hongdou brought out the clean food left behind. Zhang also made some meatloaf alone, otherwise Xiaoya might not be able to eat enough given her appetite.

Xiaoya's stomach was indeed empty at the moment, so she stuffed it with food. Mrs. Xie was afraid that she would choke, so she brought the warm soup over.

"Eat slowly. If it's not enough, I'll give you another bowl of noodles." Xiaoya took the time to give Mrs. Xie and Mr. Zhang a smile in return.

After finishing the meal quickly, Xiaoya took out a pen and paper and wrote down the Taoist priest's destination.

It was getting later and later, and there were not many people walking on the street at this time. Hongdou told his family and took Xiaoya out.
