On the trail from Guojiacun to the town, Chang Pingning accidentally bumped into the county magistrate's car leaving Guojiacun, and accidentally learned some unclear things from the conversations of the maids.

But when Chang Pingning watched the county magistrate's car driving farther and farther on the road, Chang Pingning realized that he stayed here because he noticed the meeting between Guo Yuhua and a big man.

But when Chang Pingning looked to the previous place again, trying to find Guo Yuhua and the others, he saw nothing.It was very likely that the little maid's scolding earlier had frightened not only Chang Pingning, but also Guo Yuhua.

Chang Pingning felt uneasy. She always felt that Aunt Yuhua was looking for someone to plot against her.

It was getting late, and Chang Pingning felt that if he went to his parents' house again to find his eldest brother, he might not be able to get home in time, and would probably stay at his parents' house.If she rushed to her parents' house and stayed there in such a hurry, there might be some unpleasant words spread in the villages on both sides.

Even if she and her mother-in-law had not previously had any quarrel over the distribution of money, it was hard to say that they would not complain about this matter.

Chang Pingning thought about it and sighed. He didn't expect that he would need to worry so much about returning to his parents' home after getting married.Chang Pingning had no choice but to go home first, and then find time to go to her parents' house to find her eldest brother in the next few days.

When Chang Pingning returned to Guo's house, he was about to open the courtyard door when Aunt Qiuhong called from behind.

"Girl Ning, are you back?" Aunt Qiuhong seemed to have something to say.

Chang Pingning turned around and said, "Auntie, do you want to come in and sit for a while?"

"I won't go in. If you ask me, you will come back later than my girl Ruilan." Aunt Qiuhong asked with concern, "How is your stall's business lately?"

Aunt Qiuhong chatted for a while, and when she saw that no one was passing by nearby, she took a few steps closer, lowered her voice, and said in Chang Pingning's ear: "You should be careful lately. I think Guo Yuhua has no good intentions. She often talks to her recently." A man from another village walked close. I wonder if he plans to do something to your stall?"

After hearing Aunt Qiuhong's words, Chang Pingning was shocked. She described to Aunt Qiuhong a few words about the appearance of the people who often went to her stall to find trouble.Aunt Qiuhong nodded while listening, telling Chang Pingning to pay attention to safety.

However, Aunt Qiuhong's reminder was too broad, and Chang Pingning wanted to know more clearly: "Aunt, have you heard any other rumors? There is no way to guard against thieves for a thousand days. If you have other news, please tell me too. Let me know so I can be prepared."

Aunt Qiuhong shook her head: "I don't know either. If I heard what they said, I would have told you from the beginning." Aunt Qiuhong's expression was troubled, and she was helpless.

Seeing this, Chang Pingning knew that he could only be wary of Aunt Yuhua and the big man from another village.

"Thank you Aunt Qiuhong. Come in and have a bowl of water to moisten your throat." Chang Pingning once again invited Aunt Qiuhong to sit in the yard for a while.

"Don't be so polite, Girl Ning." Aunt Qiuhong waved her hand and told Chang Pingning, "My Ruilan can get some money back every day, thanks to you looking for her. I want to go back and take a look, Ruilan is at home. How's the meal going?"

Aunt Qiuhong said, seeing that there was no one around, and smoke was rising from every house one after another, she lowered her voice and said to Chang Pingning: "My Ruilan can get some money back every day, all thanks to you looking for her. I If I hear anything that will affect your stall, I will definitely come and tell you.”

Aunt Qiuhong spoke with a very sincere expression.But after she finished speaking, she hurried away again.

Chang Pingning was about to call Aunt Qiuhong to say thank you when she heard footsteps coming from behind.Looking back, Chang Pingning saw Aunt Shuzhen, the village chief's daughter-in-law, passing by their house.

When Aunt Shuzhen saw Chang Pingning, she smiled and said hello to her.

Chang Pingning also stood by the door and exchanged a few words with Aunt Shuzhen.However, when she looked at the back of the village chief's wife leaving, she realized with some hindsight: there was no need to pass by their door when returning to the village chief's house. (End of chapter)
