Grass emerged from the cracks on the bricks on the steps.

The tall and shorter one looked at each other and asked Dong Congwen, "Who are there in this village who are close to the Lu family?"

Dong Congwen was stunned and asked what he was doing?

Could it be that the Lu family made a mistake?

Because when these two officials mentioned the Lu family, their faces were not very good-looking.

Dong Chengwen's eyes rolled, and bad water emerged in his heart, and he said, "The Lu family is a single family and only interacts with the Lin family in Xiushui Village."

"Lin family, who is that family?" the tall man asked hurriedly with a deep look.

Dong Chengwen said, "Lin Yuan, the eldest daughter of the Lin family, is Lu Ziyi's fiancée."

The shorter eyes lit up a little, and he said to the taller man, "Qi Song?"

Qi Song turned around to look at him.

The two of them looked at each other in the air, and both affirmed each other's thoughts.

Qi Song asked Dong Chengwen, "Take us to find them."

Dong Chengwen hurriedly bowed and said, "It's no problem to lead the way, it's just..." His eyes hesitated.

Qi Song's eyes turned on Dong Chengwen's face, and he sneered in his heart. This man was obviously a scholar, but he looked scheming. Just looking at him, he could tell that the extra school was cunning. Is this a benefit?

"Don't worry, the benefits will not be missing from you." Qi Song touched Zhang Shiliang's silver note from his pocket and threw it to Dong Chengwen, "Lead the way!"

Dong Chengwen was slightly stunned. This person thought he wanted benefits?

OK, ten taels of silver are also a lot!

Dong Chengwen held it in his hands without refusing. He understood that these people in the capital were rich, and they repeatedly ruled and offended the other party, and would not have a good ending.

"Thank you for your reward, sir." Dong Chengwen bowed again, "I can lead the way, but I want to ask for something for the adults, but I don't know... "

"What are your mother-in-law and mother? Let's go if you have a fart!" The short yamen servant had been impatient for a long time and shouted angrily.

The tall Qi Song's face also became even more serious.

Dong Chengwen was shocked and said hurriedly, "Because I have some misunderstandings with the Lin family. If the Lin family finds that they are taking the adults, they will retaliate against me. Please hide it for me."

What a coward!

Qi Song and Qi Bai looked down on Dong Chengwen in their hearts.

"Don't worry, we won't say you, let's lead the way right away." Qi Song pushed Dong Chengwen.

"Yes, yes." Dong Chengwen turned over and led the way in front of him.

The horse ran very fast, and soon the three of them arrived at Xiushui Village.

Of course, Dong Chengwen dared not approach the Lin family because Lin Yuan was too cunning.

"Did you see it? It's that family! Those two houses belong to the Lin family." Dong Chengwen pointed to the new house of the Lin family in front and said.

At this time, the three of them stood on a slope behind the village, standing high, and sitting on the horse, and could clearly see the two rooms of the Lin family.

Qi Song nodded at Zeppel, "Look at him, I'll go and inquire."

Dong Chengwen smiled and said, "Sir, please rest assured, I have no lies."

Qi Song is not so careless in doing things. He will only dare to let Dong Chengwen go if he has to be confirmed.

When you go to a strange place to find people, you must not be careless in everything.

Qi Song took out five copper plates, found a cattle-herding child about ten years old, and asked him about the Lin family.

"Little brother, let's find out what happened. Which family is the Lin family engaged to Lu Ziyi in Lujia Village?" As he said that, Qi Song brought five copper coins and said, "I am a distant relative of the Lin family. I heard that his family moved into a new home, but I couldn't find it for a while."

The ten-year-old child was not wary of outsiders, and with the temptation of being rich, he immediately pointed to the new house of Lin Yuan’s family in front of him, “Look, isn’t that? Those two houses belong to the Lin family.”

Dong Chengwen really didn't lie.

Qi Song felt relieved and let the child leave.

It was daytime. Although the Lin family’s door was open, there was no one in the front yard and the back yard. It was estimated that there was only one woman guarding the door at home.

What Qi Song wants to investigate is Lu Ziyi's fiancée.

Only when Lu Ziyi's fiancée was captured in his hands can Grandma Han have the chance to defeat Lu Ziyi.

Qi Song looked at the two new houses of the Lin family, turned around and walked back.

On the slope, Dong Chengwen saw Qi Song coming back with pride, and knew that Qi Song believed his words.

Lin Yuan dared to settle him, humiliate him, and even rob his wolf dog. Lu Ziyi dared to rob Lin Yuan. Humph, he made it difficult for these two families to live together!

"Qi Song, how did you check?" Zeppel asked hurriedly.

Qi Song nodded, "Let him go."

Let anyone go, the news will not be wrong.

Zeppel pushed Dong Chengwen, "You can get out!"

Dong Chengwen wanted to tell him to get out, so he immediately bowed to the two of them and said, "I'm going to say goodbye."

He ran down the dirt slope, turned over the horse, and ran away quickly.

"Qi Song, what should I do next?" Zeppel asked. Among the two, Qi Song was the head and Zeppel was the follower.

Qi Song walked to a cool place and sat down, squinted his eyes and looked at the direction of the Lin family, "It's day now, everyone in the Lin family is outside, and it seems that there is only one woman in the house, so it's hard to move."

Zeppel walked over and said, "You mean to act at night? This is a good idea."

Qi Song nodded, "It's better to be late at night, so that you can catch yourself off guard and get a bunch of things."

Zeppel smiled, "This is a good idea!"

The two discussed how long they took action, but did not enter the village again. Instead, they entered the forest on the hillside, caught a few birds and roasted wild game, and ate and rested.

...

The other side.

When Dong Chengwen left on a horse, he thought no one paid attention to him, but unexpectedly, it attracted Lin Yuan's attention.

At this time, Lin Yuan was driving a ox cart and was about to go to the town to pick up Lin Cui, who was going home when he saw another road, Dong Chengwen came out of Xiushui Village and headed towards Dongjia Village. He was riding a horse and running fast, and he couldn't help but feel suspicious.

Dong Chengwen?

What did he do when he comes to Xiushui Village?

Just as he was wondering, Zhang Guicai's son Hu Zi rode a cow from the opposite side, and shouted at her from a distance, "Sister Yuanzi, where are you going?"

Lin Yuan drove the ox cart over and said with a smile, "I'll go to the town and pick you up Sister Cui'er home."

The business of the tavern has gradually stabilized.

After lunch every day, Lin Cui went to the tavern in the town to check out the shop.

At first, she was worried that Lin Cui would look at the shop alone, but later Lin Cui said that she was too busy alone, and there was Tong Congwen.

It turned out that Tong Congwen had moved his private school to the town, and there were two rooms in front and behind the Lin family’s tavern.

A few days ago, Tong Congwen had rented the house behind the tavern.

The family disliked the house as narrow and moved into a more spacious new house.

With Tong Congwen helping each other, Lin Yuan felt relieved.

Because I was going to the capital tomorrow, Lin Yuan rushed to the town to arrange the tavern.

Hu Zi rode the cow and approached.

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "Oh, Hu Zi is leaving school so early today. My Zhier hasn't come home yet."

She went to pick up Lin Cui and happened to take Lin Zhi home.

Hu Zi smiled and said, "No, I haven't been to school these days. My father sprained his foot when chopping wood and couldn't walk. He asked me to take a few days off school and go home to help with things."

"Hu Zi is so hardworking, such a good guy." Lin Yuan praised him.

Huzi said at this time, "Sister Yuanzi, a foreigner just asked me which Lin family is engaged to Lu Ziyi in Lujia Village. I told him to tell me, is it your relative?"

Lin Yuan's eyes flashed fiercely, "Aren from the country?"

"What kind of foreigner is it?" Lin Yuan asked hurriedly.

When he found that Lin Yuan's expression had changed, Hu Zi's expression also changed, "Sister Yuanzi, am I wrong?"

Lin Yuan smiled slightly, "No, I just came out and didn't meet that person. I want to know if it was a relative or an acquaintance, maybe it was a colleague of my elder brother Lin En? He was working in Chuzhou. He had been taking leave for many days, and probably asked him to go back to the yamen to work as a job."

Even if the person who was looking for was not Hu Zi, he would be someone else.

The villagers are simple, and some people ask questions, some people answer.

Especially without scheming children.

Others would not tell her about a foreigner who came to see the Lin family. Hu Zi was an acquaintance and would tell her.

"Then I'll feel relieved. I thought I was going to be in debt. After saying that, I regretted it very much." Hu Zi smiled with embarrassment.

"Our family is not in debt anymore." Lin Yuan smiled, "Tell me, who is it?"

"A tall and thin son, with a slim eyebrow, a yellowish long gown, a black hat, and a thick-soled boots. His eyes are slender and slender, and he smiles like a cat squinting his eyes." Hu Zi thought for a while and said.

Thick-soled boots?

Lin Yuan narrowed his eyes. Nowadays, everyone wearing thick-soled boots are all from the official family.

When Lin En first came to Fengtai County, he also had thick-soled boots. Because he had to do farm work, it was difficult to walk on the mountain road and climb trees. He took off his clothes and did not wear them anymore. Now he only wore thin-soled boots made by Mrs. Lin for him.

"Oh, it's not a bad person, it's your brother Lin En's acquaintance." Lin En comforted Hu Zi.

"So he is really an acquaintance of Brother Lynn." Hu Zi was relieved, "I scared me, I thought I was a bad guy."
