Chapter 56 Found someone
Women are gossips, they like to spread the news they know, and then resonate with them, "Sister She's brothers are good enough, they will come to visit her widow every six months or a year, and bring them together. Come, Sister She is happy, and will give some peanuts, candies and other small things to our neighbors."

"In this way, even if they make a lot of noise, our neighbors won't be offended." The woman said with a smile, "But the family is okay, only occasionally one night, everyone can understand."

"So that's how it is." Chen Xiuyan didn't stay long, thanked her again with a smile, and then quickly left the alley.

Chen Xiuyan's ears are keen. Although there is no movement next door, she can still hear if there is anyone in the house. There are at least two people, and when she was talking to the woman just now, someone was leaning against the wall and eavesdropping.

So suspicious, Chen Xiuyan felt that she had to find out the truth herself.

After going around in a circle, Chen Xiuyan climbed over the wall from the backyard and entered. When she reached the ground, she found a nearby firewood pile that she could hide from, and looked at the situation inside the house with her probe.

"Brother, did you hear wrongly, is there any movement in the backyard?"

There were low voices and footsteps coming from the front yard, and Chen Xiuyan stepped into the space. Almost as soon as Chen Xiuyan disappeared, two big men came to the backyard, checked every corner, and didn't even see a mouse.

"Brother, I'm not talking about you. Why have you been suspicious recently?" The short-sighted man complained to the taller and stronger man without finding anything.

"Didn't you know that all the servants of the county government were dispatched today? I didn't expect that there was a lady from the government's family in this batch of goods. It's really unlucky." The burly man spat, with a gloomy expression on his face.

After two quarters of an hour, Chen Xiuyan came out of the space, and then began to inspect the house. The three rooms in the backyard were all locked, but the windows were pasted with paper, and you could see the scene inside by poking a hole. It was all sundries, and I didn't see a single person.

After groping to the front yard, two men sat drinking and chatting under the eaves.

"After finishing this batch, I will rest for a few years." The strong man drank a bowl of wine, wiped his mouth, and said with a smile, "I have accumulated a lot of money in the past few years. It's time to start a family. You That's right, find a reliable woman to give birth to a cub, and life will be bright."

"Brother, you don't understand. How can you be so comfortable after looking for it? I don't plan to get married, and I will be successful if I work with Mr. Xing. Don't you want to know who the big man above Mr. Xing is?" Eyes, leaned closer and whispered, "I heard that the daughter of everyone who was tied up this time was specially sold by others, and Lord Xing received a large sum of money."

"Hey, we only use money to do things, and we can sell people to earn a fortune. It's a double-earning business. It's a good deal. I heard that the affairs of big families are even darker, and there are many transactions in disguise."

"Who did you hear?"

"Brother, you are just too slick. If anyone is rushing to flatter Mr. Xing, you will know how to admit death and work hard, deal with people more, and you will know a lot of things."

"We may be able to go to a better place when we are appreciated by a bigger person. Good days are yet to come."

The burly man didn't agree, but changed the subject, "How to transport people out now, one or two is okay, we can go out back and forth, but now there are six."

"Now the county government is so tight that they can't leave the city at all."

"Brother, Mr. Xing has a solution. What are you worried about? The big family will just act like it and look for it for two days. After a few days, they will withdraw early, or look outside the city. How can they still look in the county? When the wind is over, we can go out anyway."

"Ms. She is coming back soon, you go and look around, don't let her notice anything unusual." The burly man stood up and warned, "I'll go to the cellar to see if anything goes wrong."

"Brother, you are just too careful."

Chen Xiuyan quickly retreated to the back of the firewood pile, only to see the burly man unlock the middle door of the backyard and remove a pile of firewood, revealing the door of the cellar.

Chen Xiuyan followed into the house, found a corner to hide, and after a quarter of an hour, the burly man came out, regained the appearance of the firewood pile, locked the door and left.

The room became darker for a moment, but Chen Xiuyan remained still. After a quarter of an hour, she heard the voice of a man calling to the old lady from outside, and Chen Xiuyan moved.

Since that Mrs. She didn't know what these people were doing, no one would come to this room when Mrs. She was around.

Chen Xiuyan pulled open the firewood, revealing the locked cellar, took out a large pair of pliers out of thin air, cut the lock with a "click", and with a wave of her hand, the large pliers were sent back to the space, Chen Xiuyan opened the cellar door and walked down.

The cellar should have been dug by the original house, and it was about the size of an ordinary cellar. There were a lot of things piled up in it, and the most conspicuous ones were the few people in disarray.

But the cellar was too dark, Chen Xiuyan couldn't see the faces of several people clearly, but hearing the surroundings were quiet, she took out a flashlight from the space, and the cellar suddenly lit up with a beam of light.

With the help of the light, Chen Xiuyan recognized Chen Yingying and Wang Yayu at once, and there was a girl in a brocade dress between them. The quality of the clothes was higher than that of Wang Yayu just from the fabric.

So it was not Wang Yayu who the above two said was sold, but this one.

The hands and feet of the six girls were all tied up, and cloth scarves were tied around their mouths. Chen Xiuyan loosened the cloth scarves on everyone's mouths, and directly directed the water with her hands, feeding the well water in the space into the mouths of the six girls.

Wang Yayu was the first to wake up, but her whole body was sore and she couldn't move her hands and feet. She was about to moan when Chen Xiuyan covered her mouth, "Miss Wang."

Wang Yayu was a little confused, but she heard Chen Xiuyan's voice, and when she thought of what had happened before, she backed away in panic and pressed her whole body against the wall before stopping.

"Miss Wang, save some energy. I'll go back and find the pawns now, and let them come to rescue you quickly." Chen Xiuyan said, "If you are transferred before we come, you will pretend to be unconscious and use the dried magnolia flowers in your sachet to make your own food." Mark, we will definitely find it.”

"Understand and nod your head."

Wang Yayu nodded with difficulty. Chen Xiuyan knew that time was waiting for no one, so she quickly got up and left. Just as she climbed over the wall from the backyard, she saw Chen Dazhong who had just walked through the alley.

"Beauty."

"father."

When Chen Xiuyan walked out of the alley, she found that not only Chen Dazhong, but Wang Yajie was also there, as well as many yamen servants and two dogs.

"Sister-in-law." Wang Yajie pointed to the direction Chen Xiuyan came from, "The two dogs came from different directions, and they were all staring at this alley. I think Yayu must be in one of the houses."

At this time, two dogs came over, circled around Chen Xiuyan, and barked a few times.

"I found someone." Chen Xiuyan said.
