One or two branches of plum outside the bamboo

Chapter 80
Yan Qingzhi's expression froze for a moment, she had heard some noises long ago, but she didn't expect that people outside came to find her.

The sound of footsteps and breathing of the people near the door this time is very standard. The standard seems to have been trained in the same place!

Seeing Yan Qingzhi's expression, Yan Qingzhu couldn't help sitting up straight and asking with his eyes.

While Yan Qingzhi looked out the door, he waved his hand to him and told him to hide away.

Yan Qingzhu quickly retreated to the bed, while Yan Qingzhi stood up and straightened her clothes, walked to the door and opened it.

A neatly folded belt came into view, and his gaze moved upward. With Yan Qingzhi's current height, he could only see the person's chin...

She stepped back a little, and the person in front of her was about 1.9 meters tall.

There were four people outside the door, three Yan Qingzhi did not know, and the last one was Xiao Er. He held the lamp and put away the umbrellas of the three of them. He smiled helplessly and flatteringly at Yan Qingzhi, and was about to say something. , but was interrupted by the leader raising his hand.

The person in the lead is tall and strong, wearing a suit of catching fast, but on the standard belt, there is a bright row of copper buttons, which is somewhat different from the fast catching that Yan Qingzhi has seen before, according to the strict level of Da Zhao. From the point of view of the system, this person is very likely to be a headhunter.

As soon as he opened his mouth, it really confirmed what Yan Qingzhi thought.

He cupped his hands and lowered his head a little, but his back stood straight, making Yan Qingzhi unable to see his expression.

"Dayou in Xiahong is the head of the county. These two are colleagues in Xia. I will come here to ask you something. If you are disturbed, I hope Haihan!"

Yan Qingzhi raised her head and was speechless about her current height.I can only look more serious, hoping not to let others take it too lightly.

She stepped aside a little and invited the three of them into the room.

"That being the case, the three officials invited into the room to speak."

When people filed in, she landed at the end, and whispered to the little Er who was following behind her.

"Second brother, please make a good pot of tea and bring some snacks!"

Seeing that Yan Qingzhi didn't blame him for bringing people over without saying hello, Xiaoer quickly nodded and retreated with an umbrella.

When Yan Qingzhi turned to look back, the three arresters were already sitting at the square table opposite the door.

The three didn't look around, as if they didn't care whether Yan Qingzhu, who was hiding beside the bed and pretended to be timid, stepped forward.

Yan Qingzhi put a slight smile on her face, turned around and bowed to the three of them, and said.

"I don't know what the three officials came to visit here, what's the matter?"

It was only at this time that Hong Dayou saw Yan Qingzhi clearly through the oil lamp in the room. He was stunned for a moment. He was a little surprised by how good-looking this child was. He even looked at it a few times unconsciously before answering.

"I came down here because of the loss of Hu's daughter this evening. I heard that the child was brought back by you, so I came to ask about the details."

Although Yan Qingzhi guessed it was because of this, the anxiety in her heart was not completely eliminated. She still remembered that just a few days ago, a group of arresters with a tough attitude insisted on arresting her sister and brother!

The smile on her face didn't change, and she didn't close the door. She walked a few steps to the square table and sat on the only vacant seat, pretending to be magnanimous and talking about the evening.

"That is, the official inquires, and the common people naturally dare not hide it."

"This evening, my younger brother and I were passing through this county. Seeing that it was going to rain, we stayed here nearby. After settling in, I wanted to go to the front hall to order some food, so I told my younger brother not to go out, and went to the front... "

As soon as she said this, she remembered the sound of footsteps outside. The five people in the room looked out the door together, and found that Xiao Er ran back with two dishes of snacks and a kettle.

It was a cool rainy day, but he was running with sweat.

Yan Qingzhi nodded at him, and Xiao Er stepped over the threshold and walked in. Panting slightly, he put the dessert plate on, then picked up the teapot and went to the door to pour out the herbal tea and add hot water.

Seeing this, Hong Dayou was not in a hurry and didn't keep asking, while the other two arresters looked at the dim sum and hot tea and seemed to have no other thoughts, and only swallowed their saliva subconsciously.

Yan Qingzhi pushed the dim sum closer to the two of them without a trace. After Xiao Er poured them tea and left, Hong Dayou picked up the tea cup, and then continued to talk about the next thing.

"At that time, there were not many guests in the front hall. At that time, the heavy rain had just started, and there was a flash of electricity. I turned my head to look outside the door, and saw a figure flashing past, followed by a child who seemed to be calling for help, but it didn't last long, and The thunder followed, and when I saw the heavy rain was about to fall, I didn't think much about it, I just thought that someone was anxious to avoid the rain and something happened..."

"However, just as I turned around, I suddenly heard a voice from the backyard. A woman ran into the front hall and said that her daughter was missing. I remembered what happened before, and rushed out..."

"On the way, I happened to meet several guards who were chasing after him. With the efforts of all the adults, the girl was rescued!"

Holding a teacup in his hand, Hong Dayou raised his brows when he heard Yan Qingzhi's bizarre and trivial beginning and unexpected and brief ending.

Yan Qingzhi pretended not to see his expression, and hurriedly refilled the teacups that the two Chakuai had just drank, and then sat back in the same place, as well-behaved as an ordinary child.

Seeing this, Hong Da put down the teacup and asked a topic that had nothing to do with the incident.

"Xiaguanyan's younger brother seems to have read books. I heard from the traffickers who were arrested before. You seem to have studied martial arts... I don't know where your ancestors are, why did you come to this county?"

Yan Qingzhi lowered her eyes, and instantly caught the main point of Hong Dayou's words. The other party had already tried those people, and she already knew the process very well. Her concealment was meaningless.

This is a big logical pit, and it is easy to backlash if the explanation is unclear.

Yan Qingzhi understood in the blink of an eye, she still pretended to be magnanimous and explained without any ambiguity.

"It was because of my father that I knew how to read and practice martial arts, but I was not very good! Later, my father Xianyou, and the relatives in the family were unable to adopt my brothers, so they collected some small money and let us respond to the call of the court and come to Chao County to make a living, but it's a pity My younger brother and I were separated from the large army on the way, and we are in this situation..."

Yan Qingzhi's half-truth answer sounds quite credible, but some details can't stand up to scrutiny, but Hong Dayou, as a fast catcher, understands that it's not beneficial to study these things carefully, and he has a general idea in his heart.

"It's so embarrassing..."

Yan Qingzhi's eyes showed just the right amount of complicated sadness, which made people unable to tell how much emotion was mixed in it.
