Crossing the Homeland

Chapter 180

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became tense, Jiang Xiaolian didn't know where the strength came from, and grabbed Xia Junyan tightly, and the words stuck in her throat, and she didn't know what to say.Xia Junyan raised her eyelids and glanced at her, Jiang Xiaolian immediately retracted her hand: "Yes... I'm sorry."

"What are you panicking about!" Xia Junyan withdrew her hand and rubbed her wrist.Even she didn't notice that she still looked dignified just now.Xu has been in business for a long time, although she often greets people with a smile, but when she encounters troublesome shopkeepers, she must show her aura to be able to calm down, and because she is always kind and friendly, she is now cold-faced , but even Xiaoyu was a little uncomfortable.

Xia Junyan asked: "What does the old man look like, and what is the relationship between the girl he is looking for and him?"

Chang Sheng described it in detail for a while, and said: "I didn't ask other questions, but he just said he was looking for a girl."

"Is the person at the small gate in the yard now?"

"kindness."

Xia Junyan got up and said to Jiang Xiaolian: "Come with me. You hide and walk along the wall, don't let him see."

Seeing that Jiang Xiaolian was still hesitating, Xia Junyan didn't have much patience with her, so she walked away.Looking at Jiang Xiaolian's pitiful appearance, Xiaoyu couldn't bear it, so she comforted her: "Don't be afraid, Axia didn't say to send you out."

Jiang Xiaolian was silent for a while, then suddenly raised her head: "I'll go and have a look too!" After speaking, she went to the small door under Xiaoyu's cover.

Ever since he forgot to close the door last time, Changsheng has become more vigilant, and when he saw strangers asking questions, he only opened the door halfway.When Jiang Xiaolian and Xiaoyu came, they stood behind the other half of the door. Unless people from outside walked in directly, they would not be able to see them.

"Hey, aren't you the girl at noon?" Jiang Shouquan had a good memory, and was surprised when he saw Xia Junyan come out.

Xia Junyan said: "Uncle is still looking for your wife."

Jiang Shouquan sighed depressedly: "No, I don't know where he went."

"Why don't you report directly to the government? Since she is a child bride, you must have her contract of sale in your old hand, and you can definitely find it if you ask the government."

Jiang Shouquan glanced at Xia Junyan suspiciously, how could a little girl understand so much.I heard the boy next to me say: "This is our shopkeeper." Jiang Shouquan nodded immediately, and replied: "The family ugliness should not be publicized. Besides, we are not unreasonable people. If we really want to make trouble with the official It won't end well if you go, since the shopkeeper doesn't know, the little old man won't bother you." He cupped his hands and left.

Behind the door, Jiang Xiaolian's heart was beating like a drum, and she slid along the wall and sat on the ground until Chang Sheng closed the door completely.He kept chanting: "Tong Bride... Heh... Tong Bride?!"

Xia Junyan saw that there was something wrong with her expression, so she and Xiaoyu hurriedly lifted her up from the ground.

"Did you hear that just now, are you familiar with that person's voice?" Xia Junyan asked immediately.

Jiang Xiaolian didn't know where the strength came from, and she broke away from the two of them, as if exhausting all her strength, she said, "I'm not a child bride! I'm not!!" After speaking, she ran back into the house and cried.

Xia Junyan and Xiaoyu looked at each other in blank dismay.

Jiang Xiaolian still didn't come out until dinner time.Xia Junyan picked up a chopstick of hot and sour potato shreds, but didn't put it in her mouth for a long time, still thinking about Jiang Xiaolian.Qian Gui served with sour radish strips, took a bite of the steamed bun and said leisurely, "I said that girl must not have a good background, look, please come to me."

"If she is really a child bride, then her appearance this afternoon..." Xiaoyu said, "Anyway, I don't think it's an act."
