Xiaobao, who was silent at the side, suddenly said, "I know why sister Yingzi is upset."

"Why?" Everyone asked in unison.

"Because...Brother Lingfeng hasn't come. If he came, Miss Yingzi would be very happy."

Yingzi was embarrassed to be seen through by a child.

She concealed it and said: "Xiaobao, don't talk nonsense."

"I'm not talking nonsense. When I went back to Dongyang Village that day, you and brother Ling Feng were talking and laughing. Then brother Ling Feng stopped laughing suddenly, and you stopped laughing, until now."

Zhang Yu understood a little.

"Yingzi, what's the matter with you and brother Lingfeng?"

Yingzi finally couldn't hold back anymore.

"Who knows! It was fine at the beginning, but then for some reason, he suddenly seemed to be a different person. He didn't talk or laugh, and ignored me."

"When did he start to change suddenly?"

Yingzi recalled carefully.

"When he came back, he was about to leave. He suddenly had to go to the toilet. After he came back, he seemed to be a different person."

"Yingzi, have you fallen in love with Brother Lingfeng?"

"I do not……"

"Did he also like you before she changed suddenly?"

"I have no idea……"

"Why don't you know if he likes you? This time back to Dongyang Village, the two of you must have had a spark of affection, so you care about him, and he also cares about you. You are unhappy because he is unhappy, Why he is unhappy must have something to do with you."

"It has something to do with me?"

"He went to the toilet, did he go alone?"

"Yes!"

"He may have bumped into someone who said something about you again."

Yingzi was stunned for a moment, the bowl in his hand fell to the ground, and tears rolled down like beads falling off the line.

Er Niu said indignantly: "This Ling Feng is also the same, and his attitude towards Miss Yingzi was changed by a few words from others. What kind of man is he like this?"

Zhang Yu stopped Er Niu: "Er Niu, children, please don't meddle in the affairs of adults."

Zhang Yu pulled Yingzi up and went to her room.

Looking at Yingzi's sad face, Zhang Yu said distressedly: "Yingzi, do you want to ask him clearly?"

Yingzi grabbed Zhang Yu's hand.

"Big girl, I won't go, and I will never go to Dongyang Village again in my life."

"I'm sorry, I didn't know such a thing would happen. I thought that you missed your parents and brother, and they missed you too, so I asked you to help me make this trip."

"How can I blame you! Big girl, I just blame my bad luck. Why did I encounter such a thing? I have already escaped here, why don't you let me go?"

"What's the matter with such a thing? Are you going to be slandered for a lifetime? Those people are just jealous and envious, they don't want you to live a good life, no, I will find them out and send them to the police station , teach them a lesson."

"I'm going to find Ling Feng now, I know where his family lives."

Zhang Yu said, and left the house in a hurry.

Ling Feng's house was not far from where Zhang Yu and the others lived, four stops away, Zhang Yu got on the bus and arrived soon.

Ling Feng's family lives in a large courtyard deep in the alley.

Zhang Yu knew the general direction, but not the exact location, so she asked a few old ladies sitting by the roadside.

"Ling Feng? Is he the youngest son of the Ling family? The younger brother of the second fool's family?"

Zhang Yu: "It's Ling Feng who works at Hongxin Electric Factory."

"I'm just talking about the third son! The younger brother of the second fool."

A little boy next to him said, "I know where their home is."

Zhang Yu took out a candy: "You take me to their house, and I'll give you candy."

The little boy nodded happily, and walked forward with Zhang Yu.

Walking to the deepest part of the long and narrow alley, there is a large courtyard. The little boy pointed to the two low rooms on the left.

"That's the second fool's house."

Zhang Yu handed the candy to the little boy: "Thank you!"

The little boy took the candy and ran away.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Zhang Yu wouldn't have believed that such a messy and dark residential area existed in this bustling provincial capital.

Zhang Yu walked over, Ling Feng came out with a basin, and was a little surprised when he saw Zhang Yu.

"Big girl...how did you find this place?"

An old lady came out of the next room.

"Little Sanzi, who is this girl? She can't be your partner!"

"Auntie, this is my friend's object."

Some people ran out from other rooms to look Zhang Yu up and down.

"Little Sanzi, you are a good-looking partner! You are lucky!"

"Yes! After waiting for all these years, I still wait for such a pretty daughter-in-law."

Ling Feng pulled Zhang Yu into the room in embarrassment.

The room was dimly lit and the furniture was simple. An old lady was lying on the bed, and when she saw a stranger coming in, she struggled to get up.

Zhang Yu hurried over to hold her down.

"Auntie, Ling Feng and I are friends, you are not in good health, don't get up."

"Then you sit...sit..."

Zhang Yu saw that there was really no place to stay at home, so he said to Ling Feng: "Brother Ling Feng, I have something to ask you, let's go out and talk."

out of the house.

Zhang Yu: "Didn't you say that Dr. Zhao has cured your mother?"

"The old problem from before is healed! Today I had a fever because of a cold. I just ate and took medicine before I lay down."

"Can we find a quiet place to sit and talk?"

"There is a street garden near here, let's go and sit there!"

Walking out of the long and narrow alley, I saw the busy traffic on the street. From the alley to the outside, it seemed as if I had passed through another space.

"Ling Feng, I came to see you today because I want to ask you something."

"what's up?"

"You went to Dongyang Village that day. Before you left, you went to the toilet. Did you meet someone at that time who made irresponsible remarks to Yingzi?"

"how do you know?"

"So I guessed right."

"Yes, you guessed it right, someone told me something about Yingzi."

"Alright then, Ling Feng, please take leave tomorrow and come with me to Dongyang Village."

"Why are you following me back?"

"You show me who slandered Yingzi, and I will tear her mouth apart."

"Slander? You mean, what they said is not true?"

"They? Isn't it one person? How many people said it?"

"Two women."

"What did they say?"

"They said that Yingzi was defiled by a murderer hiding in the mountains behind the village two months ago. They also said that Yingzi committed suicide because of this, and you brought her here to save her. "

"There is no need to go to the garden in the middle of the street, let's go to our small courtyard now."

"What are you going there for?"

"You go and describe to us the appearance and characteristics of the two women who said these stupid things, so that we can know who they are!"
