female catcher

Chapter 114

Arriving at a place two miles away from Baicao Village, Xia Chu asked An Liang to stop the carriage, and it was already dark when he got out of the carriage.Xia Chuben had already drank alcohol, but the wind blew up his alcohol on the road, and he was a little dizzy.

Su Zhen walked over from behind her, pulled the hat off her head, and threw it back into the car, "This hat doesn't look good, I've been wanting to say it just now."

"I forgot to buy a hat when I was shopping for clothes." Xia Chu patted the top of his head and smiled, "This is a policeman's hat, so it doesn't fit well."

Su Zhen looked at her with a slight smile, stretched out his fingers to brush the hair on her forehead, and tapped lightly on her forehead, "That's good."

"I still hope it can grow faster, summer is coming, it's too hot to wear a hat!" Xia Chu pointed forward from a distance, "That's Baicaozhuang. But, do we really want to go? "

Su Zhen turned his head and sized An Liang up, seeing An Liang until he was confused, and then he heard him say, "Give me your clothes."

An Liang was stunned, and grabbed his clothes, "This..., how did this happen?"

"Take it off." As Su Zhen said, he unbuttoned his shirt and went to the car.When Su Zhen got out of the car again, he was already wearing dark blue clothes.The clothes and pants are a little short, which looks a bit strange, but it still looks good.

Xia Chu suppressed a smile and nodded. This is true: as long as you look good, you can wear whatever you want.

Su Zhen straightened his cuffs, tightened his belt, and looked at Chu Xia's attire again: "Fortunately, the color of your clothes is darker, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to find a second one for you."

It was only then that Chu Xia suddenly realized, "Nightwalker!"

"Otherwise, what do you think? I'm wearing white clothes, so I'm afraid the nursing home won't see me."

"I thought you were afraid of getting your clothes dirty."

Su Zhen smiled helplessly, took a few steps forward, turned his head and raised his head to Xia Chu, "Let's go."

Xia Chu followed, but flinched a bit, "Mr. Huang, it is illegal to break into a private house. It doesn't matter if you kill anyone. I, who knows the law and breaks the law...wouldn't it be inappropriate?"

"There's me." Su Zhen's tone was light, as if to say: Got it.

Xia Chu didn't know where his self-confidence came from, so what's the use of having you?Anyway, I'm still a captor. If I get caught, I can sell some face in front of Mr. Jiang. After all, it's for handling the case.

Do you still want to smash the other party with money?The key is that Baicaozhuang is not poor!

Xia Chu hesitated for a moment, looking at Su Zhen's tall and straight back, and the wrist exposed from the short sleeves, she bent her lips and smiled, and suddenly didn't bother to think about anything.

Catching up to Su Zhen, Xia Chu walked side by side with him, and said with a smile, "If you are discovered, you have to run faster, as long as we don't get killed on the spot."

Su Zhen heard it funny, but shook his head lightly.

The sun has completely sunk, leaving only a little bit of blue in the sky, and the half-full moon quietly hangs in the eastern sky.Under the twilight cover, only the two lamps in front of the gate of Baicaozhuang were shaking slightly.

There are more than a dozen households near Baicaozhuang, all of which grow herbs for the Yu family, and they are scattered far away.Near Zhuangzi, Xia Chu and Su Zhen left the official road and turned into a small dirt road. The road was very narrow and unknown wild flowers bloomed.

Although what they were going to do was not something above board, the two of them were not nervous. They walked half a step away from each other in a leisurely manner, as if they were taking a walk after dinner, admiring the scenery under the moonlight.

The katydids and spinsters among the wheat grass began to sing, and the summer heat was not yet here, so the voice sounded extraordinarily clear, like someone playing jingle-dong on the keys without knowing what the player was thinking, whether it was sorrow or joy .

Xia Chu didn't speak, and Su Zhen didn't speak, but they could clearly feel each other's existence. In such a scene, there is nothing more pleasant than silence.

When they arrived in front of Baicao Village, Su Zhen and Xia Chu walked around the perimeter and stopped at a corner.Su Zhen pressed Xia Chu's shoulder and asked her to wait a while, then raised his head to estimate the height of the wall, took a few steps back, rushed forward, put his hands on the edge of the wall for strength, and stood up easily Now standing on top of the wall.

The movements were done in one go, Xia Chu looked up at Su Zhen who was aloof, and gave a soft 'wow' in his heart.Beautiful!If he was wearing that well-fitting moon white gown, he would interpret it as a decisive battle at the top of the Forbidden City when he went out to visit Baicao Manor at night.

Su Zhen knelt down and said softly to Xia Chu: "This is Dongkuayuan. If I guessed correctly, this should be the residence of Yu's eldest son. Do you want to see this?"

Xia Chu stood at the edge of the wall and nodded fiercely, Su Zhen waved to her, "Come up."

That's easy to say!

Xia Chuxin said how do I get up there!She looked around, but couldn't find any place to step on, so she had to follow Su Zhen's example and take a few steps back, took a deep breath and rushed forward.

Leap!Xia Chu's hand was grabbing the edge of the wall, but he also hit the wall and got hanged.

Su Zhen let out a muffled laugh, walked over and grabbed Xia Chu's wrist, "Put your feet on the wall and push upwards."

According to what Su Zhen said, Xia Chu began to trample on the wall, struggling a few times like a gecko whose head was pinned down, and finally she stepped on a crack in the brick.She held her breath, jumped up with that little strength, and with Su Zhen's forceful tug, she finally hung half of her body on the edge of the wall.

After much effort, Xia Chu finally sat on the edge of the wall and let out a long breath.

"Didn't you say you know kung fu?" Su Zhen sat down beside her and asked in a low voice.

"My kung fu is all fighting skills, with the purpose of defeating the opponent..." She turned her head to look at Su Zhen, "Fortunately!"

"Fortunately what?"

Xia Chu moved closer to Su Zhen, and said in a low voice, "I remember Mr. Huang once said that he wanted to learn martial arts with me. Fortunately, I didn't agree. If I really agreed, wouldn't it be embarrassing to lose? It seems , It really doesn’t hurt to be humble.”

"That's not necessarily the case. Some people practice light kung fu, while others practice solid footwork. It's like winning a fight with a sword, but they are no match at all if they fight with hidden weapons."

"You're welcome, you're welcome." Xia Chu laughed dryly twice, and said again: "Young Master Huang, you must be very knowledgeable if you write so beautifully, and your skills are so good. It's a pity to go into business."

Su Zhen smiled, "Is there anything wrong with being in business?"

"Didn't you say 'acquire civil and martial arts, and sell the goods to the emperor's family'? If you get a good reputation, you must be a pillar of the country."

Su Zhen was dumb, not knowing how to answer her. After a moment of silence, he said, "Xia Chu, your face is dirty." After speaking, before Xia Chu asked him where it was dirty, he stretched out his hand to kiss her. Rubbed on the nose.

Su Zhen's fingers were slender, cool and a little damp.But after wiping the tip of Xia Chu's nose, Xia Chu felt that his nose was hot, and then his face became hot, and finally even his ears became hot.

Xia Chu wiped his face indiscriminately, breaking the somewhat ambiguous atmosphere, and said, "Is this Yu Shiji's courtyard?"

"Yu Shiji? Is it Yu's eldest son? It should be, whether it's a wing or across the courtyard, the one on the east side is usually the eldest son's residence."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a baby crying from the north room.Xia Chu nodded: "Sure enough."

Candles were lit in the room, and the shadow of a woman was reflected on the window. She bent down and picked up the swaddle from one place, gently swayed to the other side, and handed it to another woman.

The crying of the baby continued, and there was the soft coaxing voice of a woman, mixed with some voices.The shadowy figures of women walking up and down the room.

Xia Chu thought that Yu Shiji wasn't there, and just as he was thinking, he heard a man's voice saying: "I'm so bored!" Immediately afterwards, a man's figure appeared on the window, walked to the door and pushed it open vigorously.

Xia Chu subconsciously hid behind Su Zhen, and felt ridiculous after hiding, so sat down again.

"I know how to cry all day long, cry!" Yu Shiji turned around and yelled into the room.

After shouting this sentence, the baby cried even harder.

A middle-aged woman's voice came from the room, saying kindly: "Eldest young master, how can this baby not cry. Who didn't grow up like this? Don't get angry and turn around to scare the baby."

Yu Shiji sneered, "Since he was born, the family has never lived in peace, and nothing has gone well!"

"Young master, don't say that..."

"Let him talk!" The woman in the room who was holding the child raised her voice and shouted in a high-pitched voice, "It's all done by the adults, now it's the children who are to blame."

"Eldest Young Mistress..."

Yu Shiji turned around and took a step into the room, angrily said: "Don't point and scold Huai here! Why are you gloating, what happened to the Yu family has nothing to do with you!"

"Pointing at Sang and scolding Huai? What am I referring to? What about the Yu family? It's your Yu family's lack of virtue, I take care of it! Don't piss me off, I'll see who of us is worse no face!"

Yu Shiji was about to rush in, but the middle-aged woman hurriedly stopped her, "Young master, you can stop saying a few words, young mistress is just a little irritable. That child is also the successor of the Yu family. "

Yu Shiji stared for a while, then flung his sleeves and strode away.The old lady chased her out for two steps, and then she heard Young Mistress Yu shouting loudly in the room: "Mother Liu, come back! Let him go wherever he likes, even in front of his eyes."

Mama Liu sighed at the door and closed the door, "Eldest young mistress, why are you doing this?"

Young Mistress Yu bowed her head and kissed the child's face, but said nothing more.

Su Zhen pushed Xia Chu's arm, and pointed to the courtyard gate, only to see Yu Shiji opened the door and walked out.

"Follow and have a look."

The two cats walked on the edge of the wall, but they couldn't walk fast. Fortunately, the corridor lights were all lit in the village, so they wouldn't get lost.Yu Shiji obviously didn't have any particular place to go, aimless, his pace became slower and slower as he walked along the veranda to the entrance to the back garden, and finally stopped.

Xia Chu and Su Zhen also stopped, sitting on the parapet above the veranda, silently daring not to make a sound.

Suddenly, Yu Shiji whispered in the corridor: "Who?"
