Farmer's happy event

Chapter 436 Panic

Chapter 436 Panic
After the long-prepared torrent rushed through, accompanied by a dazzling lightning and a deafening thunder, it seemed as if God had vented all his last strength, and the rain gradually weakened.

After these people who were soaked in the water managed to gain a firm foothold, they looked in the direction Su Keyan came from just now, and he was already gone. There was only an oiled paper umbrella painted with peonies leisurely on the water. floating.

Although the rain was getting smaller and smaller, none of these people felt at ease.Liangcheng was safe for the time being, but with one person missing, they felt very sad again.

It's not relative, but watching a person being swept away by this ruthless torrent, even the most hard-hearted person, I'm afraid it will be moved.

The rain became less and less, and when it was almost dawn, it stopped completely.

Following the direction of the current, they searched all night, but they found nothing.

"Such a heavy rain, such a rush of water, I'm afraid it's—"

The following words were not finished, and were replaced by a sigh.But even if they don't say it out, they all understand that it's probably more ominous than good.

That morning, when the county magistrate Qiu Jie returned home with a sad face, Mrs. Qiu came out to greet him with a smile on her face.

"The rain stopped, it should be nothing serious, why did you just come back?"

Qiu Jie sighed again, he couldn't even remember, this was the first time he sighed in a night.

Just as he was about to tell his wife the seriousness of the matter, he suddenly heard a woman's noise outside.

"Just let me see my wife, I must see my wife." The woman cried.

Qiu Jie was already very irritable, when he heard the woman's cry, he pointed at the door and shouted loudly: "Have you eaten the guts? Fight out!"

Seeing that he was angry, Mrs. Qiu turned her head and told the girl next to her to do what the master said.But just a few steps after the girl went out, she called her back again.

"Master, it's the girl next to Miss Li." She whispered to Qiu Jie.

Qiu Jie frowned, it's this time, let's add to the chaos!But he couldn't ignore it, so he had to ask the girl to see what was going on.

As soon as the two sat down, they saw Mrs. Qiu's personal maid leading Li Shuxuan's maid over.

The maid's face was full of tears, as soon as she entered the room, she knelt down towards Qiu Jie and Mrs. Qiu.

"My lord, ma'am, I beg you to find my young lady." Yu Zhu cried while lying on the ground.

When Qiu Jie and Mrs. Qiu heard the words, they glanced at each other, and their hearts suddenly lifted.

"Is your lady not in the room?" Mrs. Qiu asked tentatively.

Yuzhu shook her head, and cried again: "No, when the heavy rain was falling last night, the miss suddenly wanted to go out, and the servants were not allowed to follow, but until now, she still hasn't come back."

Miss disappeared, even if I lent her a thousand guts, I would not dare to return to Beijing empty-handed.

Qiu Jie and Mrs. Qiu realized the seriousness of the matter, and asked again: "Then when did your lady go out in the middle of the night? Did you say where?"

When Madam Qiu asked, Yu Zhu was so out of breath from crying that she couldn't answer at all, she just kept shaking her head.

Seeing her like this, Mrs. Qiu was also anxious, and couldn't help but said: "You are talking, what happened when your young lady left?"

Qiu Jie was also anxiously waiting for the girl's reply.

Thinking of the flood last night, it had already reached his thigh, and it was unimaginable for a woman to go out alone.

Yuzhu managed to stabilize her voice, and said: "Miss didn't say anything, she just said that she was going out, and no servants are allowed to follow."

"This is broken, this is broken." Mrs. Qiu said rubbing her hands.

Li Shuxuan was the person Mrs. Li entrusted to her, so something happened in her home, even if she had a thousand mouths, I'm afraid she couldn't explain it clearly.

At the beginning, I still thought about relying on this relationship, but now it seems that I don't want to let myself in because of this matter, how can I dare to think that those relationships are irrelevant.

"By the way, did she bring anything with her when she left?" Mrs. Qiu suddenly remembered and asked.

Don't think about anything else now, as long as you can find her back, everything will be fine.

But Yuzhu shook her head, crying and said: "No, I left with an umbrella."

After Madam Qiu heard what she said, she felt completely hopeless, and there was no clue at all. What should I do?
But she suddenly heard Qiu Jie next to him asking, "What kind of umbrella?"

Yuzhu was stunned for a moment when he asked, and then replied: "It's the oil-paper umbrella with peonies in the room."

Mrs. Qiu nodded: "Yes, I asked her to take this umbrella last time."

But Qiu Jie heard the words, his eyes were full of despair, and he couldn't help muttering: "It's broken, it's broken, it's broken now."

Mrs. Qiu heard his voice and couldn't help but look at him: "What's the matter? Has something to do with this umbrella?"

"Last night, after Mr. Su was washed away by the flood, an umbrella with a peony painting floated where he was standing."

"What? Lord Su was washed away by the water?" Mrs. Qiu exclaimed.

Her exclamation seemed to startle Yu Zhu who had been crying all the time, and made her forget to cry, and just stared at her with wide eyes.

But only a moment later, Yuzhu suddenly burst into tears: "It's Miss, it must be Miss."

"How do you know it must be?" She looked at Yu Zhu and asked.

Yuzhu cried and shook her head. Mrs. Qiu didn't know what Li Shuxuan was thinking, but she did.

Before Li Shuxuan went out last night, it was because she heard that Su Keyan went out alone.Now that Su Keyan was washed away by the flood, leaving behind the umbrella held by Li Shuxuan, it must be her.

Mrs. Qiu became even more anxious, and forced her to ask: "You said it, why must it be?"

While sobbing, Yu Zhu said, "Because, because that is Lord Su."

Although what she said was cryptic, as a woman, Madam Qiu sensitively grasped the meaning of it.

However, this time, she was completely desperate.

Mrs. Qiu sat back on the chair blankly, with only one thought in her mind, it's broken, it's broken, it's broken now.

How would she explain to Mrs. Li?Although Mrs. Li asked her to monitor her, she didn't let her ignore anyone.

Qiu Jie was already circling back and forth in the room in a hurry, walking up and down non-stop, which made Mrs. Qiu even more panicked and upset.

"Master, don't go around anymore, go find someone quickly." Mrs. Qiu reminded.

It's about this time, since things are already like this, then what's the use of worrying about living in the house?

As for how to explain to Mrs. Li at that time, at worst, she would say that Li Shuxuan went to see Su Keyan by herself, and had an accident when she went out alone on a heavy rainy night, so she probably couldn't say anything about her.

It's just that I don't even think about this relationship.

After being reminded by his wife, Qiu Jie came back to his senses and hurried out again.

 There is still a big climax Wenwen is about to end, it is expected to be at the end of next month, it will be eight months, I am a little bit sad.
