Wu Daozi led Yingbao down the mountain, and said as he walked, "I'll take you to an old friend's house for a few days, and after I finish the business here, I'll send you back to Qinchuan County."

"Okay, thank you Uncle Wu."

The two walked through the snow and walked through two streets. When they passed the alley near Mrs. Chen's house, they saw a mule cart coming out of it.

Ying Bao froze, and subconsciously hid beside Wu Daozi.

That was Xiao Han's mule cart, why did she come back again?

Wu Daozi also sensed Ying Bao's vigilance, glanced at the mule cart, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Ying Bao whispered: "It's that kidnapper, she's back again."

"Drive! Drive!" The coachman urged the mule repeatedly, waving his whip, and the mule cart drove away quickly, gradually disappearing into the distance.

Yingbao kept her head down, her fingers tightly clutching Wu Daozi's sleeves, and she didn't dare to raise her head until the mule cart could no longer be seen.

Xiao Han must be uneasy and kind when she comes here now, maybe she wants to silence her, otherwise it doesn't make sense.

The distance from Qinchuan County to Zhouhe County is not one or two miles, but more than 100 miles. Xiao Han just went back the day before yesterday, so there is no reason to come here in a hurry today.

It must be A Niang who sued the government. The government has found some evidence, so Xiao Han hurried back to Zhouhe County, wanting to dispose of herself.

No, she has to go home as soon as possible.

Only by returning home by oneself can the danger be lifted, and the murderer can be brought to justice.

After walking for a while, Yingbao followed Wu Daozi to a house with two horse-mounting stones at the door.

He stepped forward to pat the door knocker, and after a while, a ten-year-old servant boy opened the door, and immediately opened the wooden door when he saw someone coming, with a smile on his face: "So it's Mr. Wu, my lord is just taking a bath today."

Wu Daozi nodded at him, pointed to Yingbao and said, "This is a child from the village. I'm going to take her to Qinchuan County. I want to stay in your residence for a few days. Please help me pass the message to your master. .”

The servant boy hurriedly said: "Since it was brought by Mr. Wu Lang, I will report to the mistress when I turn back, and I will definitely make good arrangements for her. You can bring her in quickly."

"Thank you."

Only then did Wu Daozi lead Yingbao across the threshold.

Afterwards, Wu Daozi was led to an outer courtyard, and Ying Bao was taken by a servant boy to a thick-skinned maid.

The maid was thirteen or fourteen years old, she looked at Yingbao with disgust, but she still brought her a basin of water to wash her hair and face.

Fortunately, although Yingbao's head and face were dirty, her body was not dirty.

Barely washing out her human appearance, the maid was very surprised. She wiped her head and said, "What's the matter with you little girl? Did you fall into the mud ditch?"

Sakura nodded.

The maid wiped her hands and face, and led her to a yard.

"My lady, the slave girl brought by Mr. Wu has already been washed, do you want to see her?" the maid asked standing under the eaves.

I heard a grandmother inside say: "The lady has seen it, you take her to the guest courtyard, find a room for her to stay, and don't leave the courtyard if you have nothing to do."

"Yes." The maid took Yingbao to the guest courtyard again, opened a door and let her in.

This room is not big, full of dust, it seems that it has not been lived in for a long time, and there is no bedding on the small wooden bed.

However, the maid quickly brought another bed and brought her a pot of hot tea.

Ying Bao thanked her, climbed onto the bed and made the bedding, and went to bed.

The snow outside was getting bigger and bigger, and soon the ground was covered with a layer of white.

Qinchuan County.

Xu Chunniang held the hand of the elder sister Jiang Yunniang and wept into tears. "That Han family who killed thousands of knives must have hired someone to snatch my Bao'er away, woo woo woo... I will definitely not let them go."

Jiang Yunniang sighed, wiped away tears for the third sister-in-law, and comforted her: "Don't worry, Sun Lizheng has already handed over your pleading paper to the county government, and I think he will be able to give an explanation soon."

Jiang Liushi also wiped his eyes from the side: "Chun Niang, don't cry, I feel uncomfortable. Although we didn't catch anyone, someone recognized one of them as Chen Ergou, that damned beast, who hasn't returned these days." I don't believe he never comes back."

That day, two masked men snatched the child away, and quickly disappeared into the reeds. The villagers chased them all the way and failed to find them. After searching carefully, they found that they had escaped from the other side.

But someone still recognized the figure of one of them, it was Chen Ergou from Xicun, and the other was probably Chen Ergou's friend or relative.

So old man Jiang went to Lizheng to file a complaint.

Sun Lizheng led people to search for several places but failed to find anyone, and finally went to the husband's house where Chen Ergou adopted his daughter, only to find out that Chen Ergou had been living here these days, but he realized that Li was bringing people here and ran away early. Even his son-in-law ran away.

No one was caught, so Sun Lizheng wrote a pleading paper for the Jiang family, suing Chen Ergou for taking the child away, and under Chunniang's strong suggestion, added Chen Laoshuan's second daughter-in-law, Han's sisters, to the pleading paper because she Both are also suspected.

I wanted to sue Fourth Aunt Wu, but Fourth Aunt Wu knelt down and swore that she didn't know anything. She just took five taels of silver from the Han family and told about the birthmark on the wrist of Han's little girl, and everything else I don't know.

So Chunniang handed over the twin sons to her sister-in-law to take care of them, and she arrived at the county with her parents-in-law, mother-in-law and Sun Lizheng.

After Sun Lizheng handed over the pleadings to the yamen, he went to his son's house, while Chunniang and her parents-in-law went to live with the elder sister's house temporarily, waiting for news from the yamen.

But after waiting for a few days, there was no movement from the yamen.

Chunniang and the others didn't know that after the case was handed over to the county yamen boss Bo, the boss didn't present it to the county magistrate.

He found Chen Guanglu with the certificate, and said with a smile: "Chen Guanglu, your wife is in serious trouble."

Chen Guanglu was surprised: "What does Mr. Lin say about this?"

The owner of Lin shook the paper in his hand, "Someone sued your wife and others to hire murderers to rob children, and there are [-] villagers' fingerprints on the paper, proving that this is true."

"What? Let me see." Chen Guanglu reached out his hand to take a look, but Lin Zhubo moved it away.

"Can't see, can't see." Master Lin smiled and said: "This matter is not trivial, you should go back and ask clearly, it just so happens that our Ming government is resigning, and the lawsuit and other matters will be postponed for a period of time, otherwise I will not tell you about it .”

Chen Guanglu frowned, and he could only hug Lin Zhubo: "Lao Zhu Bo told me, when I go back to ask, I will bother Lao Zhu Bo to point out the maze."

The owner of the forest stroked his beard and smiled without saying a word.

Chen Guanglu hurried home, saw his wife and asked, "What did you do in Chuanhe Town this time?"

Xiao Han was startled, and said slowly: "I'll go and visit Eldest Sister, what can I do?"

"Tell the truth!" Chen Guanglu slapped the table and shouted, "Everyone handed the pleadings to the county government, but you are still full of lies! Tell me! What good did you do!"

Xiao Han was startled, and the teacup in her hand fell to the ground, and it shattered with a bang.

Seeing that her husband looked like he was going to eat people, Xiao Han didn't dare to hide anymore, and told the things she did in Chuanhe Town.

"...The child picked up by the Jiang family is obviously my elder sister's, but they insist on it. I, I will give elder sister an idea, let her pay someone to bring the child back... Is there something wrong?"
