Chapter 64 Became a Suspect

Jiang Zhinuan went out to greet him, and Di Qing couldn't stay in the room any longer, so he quickly followed Jiang Zhinuan out in the wheelchair.

Uncle Zhang turned around and locked the door of the front yard firmly. As soon as he reached the door of the back yard, Jiang Zhinuan and the others greeted him.

Just look at this Uncle's face is a little pale, sweating from nervousness.

"Uncle Zhang, what's wrong with you? What happened?"

Jiang Zhinuan asked and hurried back to the house and poured a bowl of water to Uncle Zhang.

But at this moment, how can Uncle Zhang still have the desire to drink water?
He took a few deep breaths and then said slowly: "An accident happened in Huang Daxian Temple!"

Jiang Zhinuan: "..."

What happened to Wong Tai Sin Temple?It must have been discovered that the tribute was missing, right?

But Jiang Zhinuan had inquired among the crowd yesterday that the tributes in the Huang Daxian Temple would be eaten by weasels. She packed them up and took them away. Logically speaking, the villagers should not be suspicious.

"Uncle Zhang, what happened? Tell me." Di Qing remained calm.

"The tribute from the Wong Tai Sin Temple was stolen yesterday!"

Jiang Zhinuan was a little embarrassed, she raised her hand and scratched her head: "Then what...I heard people say that weasel...isn't it the Huang Daxian you mentioned, they will go to eat the tribute, they should be eaten by them."

Uncle Zhang shook his head with a solemn expression.

These weasels will eat tributes, but they not only eat tributes, but also destroy them.

After each offering, the weasel temple would be in a mess the next day, with torn chicken feathers and blood on the ground, and even half a piece of chicken body left over from eating.

But today, the old man in charge of the Wong Tai Sin Temple went there early in the morning with cleaning tools, but he was dumbfounded when he opened the door.

The temple is clean, there is no trace of Huang Daxian's visit at all, but yesterday's tribute is gone.

Hearing Uncle Zhang's words, Jiang Zhinuan was a little flustered, after all, she was the one who went along with this tribute.

"Uncle Zhang, maybe that Huang Daxian didn't make a fuss, just left after eating and wiping it up. The tribute was originally for him to eat, so forget it if it's gone."

Uncle Zhang shook his head.

"No! Someone really stole the tribute!"

While talking, Uncle Zhang looked at Jiang Zhinuan: "The old man said, you are the most suspicious person today!"

Jiang Zhinuan was taken aback!
Wozhuo~
Found out?

She turned into that bear yesterday, or was she recognized?

Di Qing also became nervous at this moment, he looked at Jiang Zhinuan: "It's you?"

Jiang Zhinuan nodded and shook his head.

"The old man said that yesterday a man from the next town went in to burn incense without bringing tributes. This figure looks exactly like you dressed up yesterday. The old man got angry and saw you go in, but he didn't see you come out!

Now the folks have reported to the officials, and are searching your whereabouts from door to door! "

"I disguised myself as a man yesterday, they wouldn't recognize me, Aunt Zhang, don't worry."

How could Uncle Zhang not be worried? He was in a hurry to come back because he thought of the food that Jiang Zhinuan memorized back yesterday, such as roasted chicken and pig's head flower buns, which were exactly the same as those lost in Huang Daxian Temple.

He looked at Jiang Zhinuan: "Fat girl, tell me the truth, did you steal the tribute back?"

Jiang Zhinuan gritted his teeth and shook his head persistently.

She couldn't admit it, if she admitted it and let Uncle Zhang know that he had eaten Huang Daxian's tribute this morning, something might happen.

"Uncle Zhang, it's not me. Don't worry, we are on the cusp right now, and I won't mess around."

"That's great, but you can't live here right now. The officials are searching every household, and they will be checked soon. You'd better take the children and leave."

Jiang Zhinuan could only nod: "I am causing you trouble, I will take them away."

Uncle Zhang sighed, pushed the paizi cart over, and took out the quilts they had built for the past two days and put them on the paizi cart: "Go out and find a place to hide first, and you won't feel wronged if you take these children to sleep. "

After all, Uncle Zhang went to the kitchen to tidy up again. All the pots and pans for temporary cooking were prepared for them.

Jiang Zhinuan was only thinking of borrowing Uncle Zhang's machete, and now that they were going out, they could only live temporarily in the reed marsh. She had to hurry up and cut down some trees to temporarily build a place that could shelter from the wind and rain.

"Okay, let's go, if you really need something, wait for the limelight and come back at night."

Jiang Zhinuan thanked Uncle Zhang repeatedly, and said that he would take out a hundred cash in the purse and leave it to Uncle Zhang.

"Great kindness, Aunt Zhang, I have a lot of money now, and I have wronged you. When I become prosperous in the future, I will definitely repay you well."

……

Jiang Zhinuan changed into men's clothes that had been modified, carried the two children into the car, pulled Di Qing up with a rope, and went up the river at a high speed.

Not long after they left, the officials searched Uncle Zhang's house.

Aunt Zhang brought Jiang Zhinuan all the things that Jiang Zhinuan brought back yesterday, except for the pork head that Jiang Zhinuan had pressed for him and hid it in the firewood room.

When the yamen servant came to the house, he first searched the kitchen to see if there were any tributes lost in Huang Daxian's temple.

The second is to look around in each room to see if there are any Tibetans.

Jiang Zhinuan is considered a suspect. She is so big that she can't hide it even if she wants to. Uncle Zhang usually lives alone, and he is polite when he sees the official officer. The official officer looks at him as an old man, and he is not embarrassed. After checking, he left.

On the other side, Jiang Zhinuan pushed the platoon cart to speed up to the back river.

She hid the row of carts in a reed marsh beside the back river, and then put all the things Zhang Abo had prepared for them on the bamboo raft and brought them to the reed marsh.

When they came to the reed marshes, their hanging hearts were temporarily relieved.

There are few people here, and no one would come here under normal circumstances, but the place where they live is now a problem.

Jiang Zhinuan unloaded all these things on the opposite side of the reed marsh, just across a river of three to five meters, there was a reed marsh over there, and on the opposite side of the reed marsh was a stretch of low mountains.

If you want to build a house, it is better to build it at the foot of the opposite mountain.

Jiang Zhinuan spread a piece of linoleum that Uncle Zhang gave them on the ground to prevent moisture, and then put down the bedding.

The two children looked confused and had no idea what happened.

Jiang Zhinuan only said that they called it camping, and they could sleep watching the stars at night, and the two children were very excited.

The weather was still early, and Jiang Zhinuan didn't dare to rest for a while, so she rowed a bamboo raft to bring over the row cart hidden in the reed marshes by the back river. This place is surrounded by mountains, so she had to find a way to get some wood first. , Ask Di Qing to help build a simple wooden shed as soon as possible.

This spring, it may rain at any time, and it is really impossible to have no shelter from the wind and rain.
