Chapter 52
【Su Liang is missing】

In the afternoon, Mrs. Bai came to visit.

"Try the new shoes just made." Aunt Bai smiled when she saw that the shoes Su Liang was wearing were made by her.

The shoes were specially made by Su Liang and asked Mrs. Bai to help.She doesn't know how, and she doesn't have time, and the embroidered shoes she bought can't practice martial arts at all.

Su Liang tried on the new shoes and they fit well.

Ning Ping took the one given to him back to the room to try, and said it was just right.

"It's getting cold, do you want to make some more cotton shoes? Are you going to the provincial capital in a few days? It's even colder over there!" Aunt Bai asked.

Su Liang smiled and nodded, "If Madam is free to help, that would be the best. I have some materials from friends here, let's see if I can use them."

As Su Liang took out the fabric that Xing Yusheng had sent earlier, Aunt Bai said it must be very expensive.

In the end, it was decided to make two pairs of cotton shoes for Su Liang and Ning Jing.Aunt Bai said that she would go to the market tomorrow, and then she would look at the most fashionable styles sold in the shops in the town, and learn how to make them for them when she came back.

In terms of price, Su Liang has always been generous, but he also has a sense of proportion, and he has a tacit understanding with Mrs. Bai.

After talking about making shoes, Aunt Bai mentioned Niu Pozi's house.

After that turmoil, Su Xingzhe's second brother went to the government to collect his "corpse" and buried it hastily.

Everyone in the village thought that Mrs. Niu might be going crazy after being greatly stimulated, and there had been signs before.Who knew that she had acted like nothing had happened these few days, even more amiable than before.It's strange.

"Let's not talk about her." Aunt Bai sighed, "My second child is still thinking about Liu Huilan, and the eldest is also persuading me. I have told the second child a few relatives these days, and there is always something unsatisfactory. But I want the second child to marry someone A widow, or a daughter-in-law who was kicked out by Mrs. Niu, I always feel uncomfortable in my heart."

Su Liang just smiled and said, "I don't understand this kind of thing, it probably depends on fate."

"Yeah, girl Liang, you're still young, and you won't be ready until the end of the year, right? You won't be in the village by then. Mr. Ning is a nice person, you..." Aunt Bai slapped herself on the mouth as she said, " Look at me, I'm talking too much again. No matter what, you are all capable people, and you can live well wherever you go!"

"Aunt Cheng said auspicious words." Su Liang smiled cutely.

Aunt Bai looked at her fair and tender little face, delicate eyebrows and eyes, and Qiong nose and cherry lips, and couldn't help but praise, "It's only been a month or so, and you've grown up all of a sudden, and you're getting better and better. gone."

Su Liang pinched her face, "Maybe it was too thin before, but you gained a little weight recently?"

"Where are you getting fat? You are also very slim now." Aunt Bai said with a smile.

After Bai Da Niang took some materials and left, Ning Jing said that he was going to Er Niu's house and had a question to ask Er Niu's grandfather Su Dakuan, who was his carpenter master.

In addition, the last time Ning Ping went to the town to buy wood, he bought an extra set of carpentry tools, which he wanted to give to Su Dakuan as a thank you gift.

"I'll go too to see how Grandpa Dakuan is doing." Su Liang changed into a coat and came out.

The two of them had just crossed the bridge when they met the old lady Niu and her daughter-in-law heading home with bundles of firewood on their backs.

When Niu Pozi saw Su Liang, she stopped, pulled the corners of her mouth at her, showed a smile that was uglier than crying, and called out hoarsely, "Little girl."

Su Liang nodded, and Niu Pozi's daughter-in-law dragged her away.

Looking at their backs, Su Liang looked inexplicable, "I always feel that something is wrong."

Then, Su Liang heard Ning Jing say the familiar words, "Her face is black."

Su Liang frowned, "Is this to kill someone?"

Although many people had grudges against Mrs. Niu, none of them would kill her.She would not commit suicide, otherwise she would have died long ago.

On the way to Erniu's house, Su Liang kept thinking, if Mrs. Niu wanted to kill someone, who would she kill?It's very possible that she and Ning Jing are also very likely. Niu Pozi thinks that Su Xingzhe's accident was caused by Ning Jing.

"It's work again." Su Liang sighed.

"Sister Su Liang! Brother Ning!" Seeing them coming, Er Niu threw down his ax and went to move the small stool.

Su Dakuan came out of the cave, with a smile on his old face, "Liang girl is here."

"Grandpa Dakuan's complexion has improved a lot. Is there anything else uncomfortable?" Su Liang asked.

Su Dakuan sat down against the wall, shook his head and said, "Okay, everything is fine, there is nothing uncomfortable. I can work in a few days."

Su Liang gave Su Dakuan his pulse and told him to rest for another ten and a half months and not to be tired.

"What is this?" Er Niu asked, looking at what Ning Ping brought.

"He gave it to Grandpa Dakuan. You can use it for carpentry later on." Su Liang said with a smile, "Don't refuse, the carpentry he learned from Grandpa Dakuan should be regarded as a teacher's gift. The previous debts, It’s also written off.”

Su Dakuan waved his hands again and again, "How can that be done? The debt must be repaid! I didn't teach Mr. Ning anything, he is smart."

"No matter how smart he is, he was originally a layman. Grandpa Da Kuan brought him in." Su Liang insisted, "Is there any reason why learning a craft doesn't cost money?"

"I know, you guys are..." Su Dakuan's eyes were moist.

During the days when he fell ill, Su Liang bought the medicine for the patients, and the food, meat and vegetables at home were all sent by Ping An, and there are still a lot of them now, which is enough for the grandparents and grandson to survive the winter.

"You don't have to think too much. When your body gets better, life will get better and better." Su Liang said.

After Ning Jing asked Su Dakuan about a method of mortise and tenon joints, the two left.

……

After dinner, Su Liang asked Ning Jing what to do with Mrs. Niu, who was suspected of being the murderer.Since he saw it, if you don't check it out, you will die.

"I'll go take a look." Ning Jing said.

"That's good. I guess she might not be able to sleep at night, maybe she will talk to herself or something." Su Liang said.

Su Liang plans to go back to her room to read the medical books sent by Mrs. Xing, time is precious, she has a lot to learn, otherwise she will go out with Ning Jing.

Ning Ning packed the dishes, boiled hot water, changed into dark clothes, and quietly left home.

Su Liang had arranged the medical books in order, took the first book, and sat at the table to read it attentively.

Immersed in the book, I don't know how long it has passed. Hearing slight movements in the backyard, Su Liang thought that Tranquility had returned, so he didn't care.

After a while, the movement disappeared. Su Liang sensed that something was wrong, and was about to stand up when he felt dizzy and in a bad mood!

As soon as she pulled out the dagger in her sleeve, Su Liang's legs became weak and she fell to the ground. Before she fell into a coma, she saw a person walking towards her...

When Ning Jing returned home, he saw that Su Liang's room was lit and the door was closed, just like when he left.

"Mother Niu bought rat poison, intending to poison Liu Huilan and her family. She believes that Liu Huilan killed her two sons, and she must get rid of this bastard."

Ning Jing finished speaking outside the door, but Su Liang responded, and frowned slightly, "Su Liang?"

Still no one answered, Ning Jing's eyes froze, and he vigorously pushed open Su Liang's door!

There was an open medical book on the table, and there were no signs of fighting in the room.

On the wall is the martial arts training schedule fixed by Ning Ping for Su Liang.The vase on the window sill was given by Xing Yusheng, and inside it was a golden little wild chrysanthemum, picked by Zhuzi yesterday and given to Su Liang.

The medicine cabinet is also in Su Liang's room.

The aroma of wild chrysanthemum and the smell of various medicinal materials are intertwined.

Ning Ping didn't smell the fragrance, but he opened the doors and windows.It is impossible for Su Liang to leave without a reason, and it is not easy to take her away unless poison is used.And the original smell in the room, and Su Liang's concentration on reading, will make her unable to guard against drugged plots.

Ning Jing checked the backyard and found a footprint, obviously a man.

The cold moonlight sprinkled silver light all over the place, Ning Jing held the medical book that Su Liang read not long ago, closed his eyes, and stood under the eaves, thinking about who would attack Su Liang.

He didn't see the black mist appearing between Su Liang's eyebrows, which meant that her life was not in danger for at least three days.

Mu Bing?He is a shrewd person, if he wants to cooperate with Su Liang, he will not use this method.

Could it be Yan Shiba's prank?But Ning Jing felt that she was not going to solve the troubles of Yanyun Tower so quickly.

Ning Jing remembered that during the day, Wu Yun sent someone to invite Su Liang to treat Wu Huaian, but Su Liang refused on the grounds that he would not see a doctor...

Ning Jing turned back to the room, came out soon, was about to leave from the backyard, when he heard someone knock on the door.

"Miss Su? Mr. Ning? I'm Chang'an."

Chang'an was sent over by Mu Di in the middle of the night, feeling that he would be beaten.

Ning Jing opened the door much faster than Chang An expected, his face was backlit, Chang An couldn't see clearly, but somehow felt a chill down his spine.

"Master Ning, it's like this! My master has something important to ask me to come to Miss Su. Is she asleep?" Chang An quickly explained.

"She's asleep, tell me." Tranquility's voice was cold.

Although Mu Di had told Su Liang that he must tell Su Liang face to face, Chang An felt that if he did not tell Ning Jing, he would not be able to enter the door at all, so he explained why he came, "It was the matter that the master mentioned yesterday. During the investigation today, the master found that Bei'an County In the past three years, there have been unsolved cases of several young women missing, and they have been quite regular, one in half a year, and no clues have been found. This strange incident began after Wu Yun and Wu Huaian and his son came to Bei'an County."

Ning Jing didn’t speak, Chang’an continued, “There is an antecedent reason. After Wu Huai’an was injured on the battlefield, it was rumored in the capital that he injured more than two legs. His fiancée suddenly disappeared shortly after he divorced, and then he joined the army. Yun came to Bei'an County to guard the mine. The master suspects that the girl's disappearance has something to do with the father and son."

"But there is no evidence, so we can't scare the snake away. Master hopes that Miss Su will reconsider the previous proposal. This is not only related to the iron ore smuggling case, it may be related to the missing women in Bei'an County in recent years." Chang'an looked serious.

"En." Ning Jing replied, and closed the door.

Chang An frowned and looked at the closed door, "Mr. Ning, please tell Miss Su! It's a very important matter, you can't make decisions for her!"

There was no answer from inside, Chang An sighed repeatedly and had no choice but to leave.

Ning Jing went to Su Liang's room, found the hammer and awl that Yan Shiba had given her, held it in his hands, and said in a low voice, "Wu Huaian..."
