Pretending to be jealous in the arms of Dali Temple

Chapter 82 You Don't Act, Sir
Su Jizhi and Wanyan squeezed back and forth in front of the Moon Gate, bursting with laughter.

When Miao Hong walked into the government office, he was dumbfounded.

Are all people in love so ignorant?

Just as he was about to complain, footsteps sounded behind him, Miao Hong turned his head, and a couple walked into the mansion side by side, their faces covered with dark clouds.

Su Jizhi saw it from a distance, turned his mouth coldly, switched to a calm and serious mode and looked at Wan Yan, "I'll go and have a look."

Wan Yan looked at the couple, and hid in Su Jizhi's shadow to discuss in a low voice: "My lord, I also want to hear what's going on."

The curiosity in his eyes couldn't be hidden.

Su Jizhi straightened the black hat on his head and nodded seriously, "Let's go, maybe you can help me."

Wan Yan straightened her dress to make herself look more formal, weighed the size of her steps, and followed the adults steadily.

Seeing Su Jizhi approaching, Miao Hong gently introduced to the couple, "This is Mr. Su, Yin of Tongshan Mansion. Who are you? What's the matter?"

The couple looked at each other, then knelt down on the ground with a puff, "Master Su, we have to report to the officials, please ask your lord to make decisions for the grassroots and find a child for us."

Miao Hong stretched out his hand to hold the man's arm, "Quickly please get up, Mr. Su doesn't like people saluting him, so just tell me what you have to do."

When the woman heard that she raised her head and looked at Su Jizhi, she felt that the adult in front of her had a blazing gaze and a resolute face, and the woman burst into tears instantly.

inner hall.

Su Jizhi sat across from the couple and comforted him softly: "You don't need to panic, if you have anything to tell me directly, tell me first, you are from Tongshan Prefecture? What's the matter?"

Wan Yan silently looked at the two people.

The woman is in her 40s, with gray sideburns, carrying a dark cloth bag with floral flowers in her hand, and tightly holding the bag with both hands, she looks very old.

The man looked dull compared to the woman, with his head bowed. When the woman spoke, his fingertips trembled slightly, and worry and panic were written in his eyes.

Facing Su Jizhi's question, the woman shook her head, "No, Master Su, we are from Fengyuan Mansion."

Su Jizhi frowned lightly, "Then why did you go to Tongshan Mansion to report to the officials?"

"The little girl's name is Shang Wenli. She came to Tongshan Mansion almost a month ago. Since then, there has been no news. We went to Fengyuan Mansion to report to the officials, but Mr. Fu Yin said that he is not in his charge. Let us come to Tongshan Mansion to report the case."

Wan Yan looked at Su Jizhi, his face was covered with frost, obviously very dissatisfied with this rhetoric.

Just now he said that some officials did not act, and it seems that the governor of Fengyuan Mansion is one of them.

"How old is Miss Shang?"

"Twenty this year."

"Have you ever been married?"

The woman shook her head, "If she's already married, we can't agree to her coming to Tongshan Mansion to work."

"Why did Miss Shang leave Fengyuan to work in Tongshan Mansion?"

"How should I put it? Tongshan Mansion is the closest to the capital, and the girls like to come here to work. Wen Li has worked not only in Tongshan Mansion, but also in the three prefectures around the capital. She has many familiar little sisters. What do you think is better? They will send messages to each other, and Wen Li came here this time only after hearing that Tongshan Mansion is good."

"She came to Tongshan Mansion through someone's introduction?"

"Yes."

"What was the name of the person who introduced her?"

"Lianniang, she is from Bao'an Mansion. After Wen Li disappeared, we went to find her, but she said that she only saw Wen Li once in Bao'an Mansion, and she didn't know anything else."

"You gave Lianniang's address to Butou Miao. Also, how long has Shang Wenli been away from home? Did she disappear a month after leaving home?"

"No, she has been away from home for three months this time, but she will exchange news with us in the first two months. She really didn't contact us, it should be 30 days ago."

Wan Yan listened carefully, not wanting to miss every word, and kept thinking about the content of the conversation in her mind.

"Did Miss Shang say where she works?"

"No, after she came to Tongshan Mansion, she asked a porter who ran a merchant to bring a message. We found out that she hadn't heard from her family for a long time, so we came to look for her. It's been exactly 30 days today."

"That is to say, Miss Shang's disappearance may have happened earlier?"

The couple thought about it and nodded at the same time.

"When was the last time Miss Shang contacted you? Or when you received the message?"

"Forty days ago." The woman regretted, she could only remember this vague timeline.

"Miss Shang is not yet married, but is there a man she knows?"

"This..." The woman hesitated, "The women don't dare to talk nonsense, probably they don't. Although the little girl has been away from home for a long time, I don't know who she contacts, but I know my daughter very well. Wen Li is not a casual person. .”

"How is Miss Shang's temperament?"

"She is a very docile child. It is said that she should be married at this age, but the little girl disagrees. She said that she needs to earn more money so that she can hold her head up when she goes to her in-law's house. She also said that she must find someone she likes before she can marry."

Recalling every bit of her daughter, the woman cried even more.

"When Miss Shang has been working outside for a long time, does she have any enemies? Or people who are hostile to her?"

"The little girl has a pure personality. I don't believe that she has made enemies with others, but again, we don't know who she associates with after leaving home."

"Besides Lianniang, do you know anyone who has more contact with Miss Shang?"

"Well, there are many little sisters of daughters in Fengyuan Mansion, I can tell you all."

Afterwards, the women recalled one by one, and Miao Hong quickly recorded a lot of names on the scroll.

"I would like to ask another question, are you sure that Shang Wenli disappeared in Tongshan Mansion? Did she not go to other cities?"

The woman shook her head, "Master Su, our husband and wife have also thought about this possibility and hoped so, but it has been so many days, why didn't Wen Li contact us, we are worried."

"I'd like to ask again, Shang Wenli has been away to work for so long, how long is the longest time I haven't contacted you?"

"More than ten days."

Su Jizhi nodded, "I keep everything you said in mind, and you should ask more when you go back. It's too early to say that something happened to Shang Wenli. Maybe she will have news in a few days."

The couple looked at Su Ji's hesitant face.

"Master Su, why hasn't that child contacted us for so long?"

"Maybe she has gone to a farther place, and it will take time for the message to be delivered. Don't worry too much."

The woman became even more distressed, "My lord, I am the mother of a child, and I always feel uneasy. My lord, my child will not contact us for so long for no reason. My dreams are full of blood, and I feel uncomfortable."

"If you worry too much, this will happen. You should go back and wait for the news, and think about it in a positive way."

Su Jizhi said a few words of comfort, and signaled Miao Hong to send him off.

Turning around, the little girl was staring at him resentfully, not very happy.

"What's wrong?" Su Jizhi stood up.

Wan Yan was not very satisfied with the attitude of the adults, and dissatisfied: "My lord, you can help them find Miss Shang, you see how worried they are."

"How do I find it? There are so many people in Tongshan Mansion, Shang Wenli doesn't even know if she's here or not." My lord disagreed.

Wan Yan pouted, "But your attitude is wrong, what if something happens to Miss Shang?"

Su Jizhi imitated Wan Yan and tilted her head, "Compared with this possibility, I hope she went to another city."

Wan Yan stared, "My lord, if you don't do anything, it's inaction to send them away like this!"

Su Ji's air pressure became low, and he looked at Wan Yan coldly.

Wan Yan met the adult's eyes, her eyes were not timid, but her heart was beating like a drum.

The adults are angry!
