Chapter 147 Liu Yingyue Didn’t Come Back

Liu Huaiyue screamed in fear, "Brother-in-law Gao, you...what are you doing? Why are you tying me up?"

Gao Yucheng said coldly, "When Yingyue comes, I will let you go!"

Liu Huaiyue blinked, "If you want to find my sister, go find her. Why are you tying me up?"

Gao Yucheng said angrily, "If she could talk to me nicely, would I have to tie you up?"

Liu Huaiyue started to cry, "Brother-in-law Gao, my sister has a bad temper. You have to talk to her nicely and you can't provoke her."

"I didn't provoke her. I kept talking to her nicely, but she just ignored me! Tell me, how am I worse than Qin Dalang? Why didn't she marry me? Why did she agree to the marriage exchange?" Gao Yucheng thought of Liu Yingyue's cold face and kicked the small tree next to the temple in anger.

But he was so weak and frail that he had no strength in his legs. The tree just shook but did not fall. Instead, it hurt his feet.

Liu Huaiyue thought to herself, you are worse than Qin Yiran in every way.

But she didn't dare to say anything, she just said, "My sister should be in Jiang's shoe store right now. If not, she should be in Qin's snack shop. Go find her, don't tie me up."

Gao Yucheng waved his hand, "No, I will let you go if Yingyue agrees to help me."

He took another piece of cloth from his sleeve, tied Liu Huaiyue's mouth, dragged her into the temple, and tied her to a pillar in the temple.

"Stay here quietly, I'm going to find Yingyue!" Gao Yucheng patted his sleeves and left the land temple.

Liu Huaiyue looked around and started crying out of fear and anger.

Although this is a land temple, it is dilapidated and it is obvious that no one comes here to burn incense.

There is a small road outside, and no vehicles or horses can enter.

This meant that no one would come to her rescue.

Liu Huaiyue was so scared that she cried even louder.

But with a cloth tied around his mouth, his crying was not loud and would not attract any attention.

Liu Huaiyue was extremely desperate.

Liu Yingyue ordered shoes for Qin Xiuzhu and Chen Baian in the shoe shop, and chatted with the shopkeeper for a while, but Liu Huaiyue still didn't come back.

Liu Yingyue looked around the shop but still didn't see Liu Huaiyue.

Waiting here all the time is not a solution either.

Liu Yingyue told the owner of the shoe shop that if Liu Huaiyue came back after she left, she should ask Liu Huaiyue to wait for her at the Qin family snack shop.

The shopkeeper agreed, "Don't worry, I'll tell Sister Ying as soon as she comes back."

Liu Yingyue came to the street and continued to look for Liu Huaiyue.

I searched every house but couldn't find it.

Liu Yingyue's face was dark. Where had this girl gone?

She went back to Qin's snack shop, and everyone in the shop said that they hadn't seen Liu Huaiyue come back.

"Madam Ying, let's look for it together?" said Hongzhu.

Liu Yingyue thought about it, nodded and said, "Let's look for her together! Although Huaiyue is naughty and playful, she has never been lost like this before. It's getting late, we have to find her as soon as possible."

Chen Baian also said he would help look for it.

Liu Yingyue waved her hand and said, "You still need to look for a shop. Let Lao Fu and Lao Qian help me find one."

She pointed at the two long-term workers arranged by Qin Yiran.

It was already past mid-afternoon and many shops on the street were starting to close, and the dim sum shop wasn't doing much business either.

Chen Baian said, "Okay, I'll help you find it after I close the shop."

Liu Yingyue looked at the street market and divided the work among everyone. "The four of us, each of us will look in a direction until we find the end of the street market. If we can't find anyone, we will come back here."

The market street runs in four directions, and each direction is only about a mile long.

Behind the street is an alley where villagers live.

There are only a few shops on the street, and I was afraid that Liu Yingyue would go to the village to play.

Everyone followed the instructions and chose a direction to search.

Liu Yingyue followed the original route back.

Earth Temple.

Liu Huaiyue sat on the ground, crying until her voice was hoarse, but still no one came. She kicked and stomped in anxiety.

I don’t know if it was because she was so strong or because Gao Yucheng was so flustered that he didn’t tie it tightly enough.

She found that the ropes binding her wrists had loosened.

Liu Huaiyue was overjoyed and quickly pulled the rope to remove the cloth that bound her mouth.

"Puh, puh, puh..." Liu Huaiyue spat several times in a row, "Gao Yucheng, even if you help me pay back the money, I will still scold you!"

After scolding Gao Yucheng, he blamed Liu Yingyue for being an enemy of Gao Yucheng, which led to her being tied up.

Liu Huaiyue walked out of the land temple cursing.

She found that it was getting dark all around.

There were only a few candle lights on the street ahead.

From time to time, the strange cries of wild cats and owls could be heard all around.

Liu Huaiyue was so scared that she ran away with her skirt lifted up, "Mom——"

The light was dim and she was running so fast that she didn't notice there was a pothole on the road.

Liu Huaiyue fell into a pit and sprained her ankle.

With a hoarse voice and an injured leg, Liu Huaiyue walked with a limp until it was completely dark, but he still didn't reach the market.

Liu Huaiyue was so scared that she started crying.

But he became more and more frightened and anxious, and actually went in the wrong direction and ended up in a desolate forest.

There are trees everywhere you go, and there are weeds everywhere you go.

My feet hurt and I'm hungry.

Liu Huaiyue couldn't help but burst into tears.

As I was crying, I heard footsteps behind me.

Liu Huaiyue was so scared that she didn't dare to cry anymore. She held her breath and looked towards the voice.

Blurredly, she saw a tall figure getting closer and closer to her.

"Huai Yue?"

Liu Huaiyue recognized that it was Qin Yiran's voice and burst into tears, "Brother-in-law, I'm here!"

"Why are you here?"

Qin Yiran lit a tinder and shone it towards Liu Huaiyue.

“I… wuwuwu…” Liu Huaiyue saw that there was a savior, and the fear in her heart disappeared, leaving only endless grievances, “It’s all Yingyue’s fault! It’s all her fault!”

Qin Yiran frowned and picked her up from the ground, "Yingyue, what happened to you?"

"She, Gao Yucheng... wuwuwu..., Gao Yucheng went looking for Yingyue, and when he couldn't find her, he tied me up in the land temple. I broke free from the ropes and ran out, but I sprained my ankle, and couldn't see the road clearly, so I ended up here."

Qin Yiran frowned and whistled, and a horse trotted over.

"This horse knows the way and will take you to Madam Qiu's shop. Ask Madam Qiu to apply some medicine on your feet and then ask her to arrange someone to take you back to the village."

Liu Huaiyue climbed onto the horse's back and looked around. "It's so dark, I'm scared."

"You know you're scared. Don't run around next time. Let's go." Qin Yiran patted the horse's back.

The horse ran forward.

Liu Huaiyue was so scared that she hugged the horse's neck.

Qin Yiran walked out of the woods and strode towards the market.

When he got to the street, he did not go to Qiu Shuixian's shop, but went to Qin's snack shop.

All the shops around were closed, only the Qin family snack shop was still open. Chen Baian, the two farmhands who were arranged to work there, and Hongzhu were discussing something.

Seeing him walk into the shop, several people looked up.

Chen Baian came over and said, "Brother Yiran, Huaiyue is missing. My sister-in-law went to look for her, but it's been so long and she hasn't come back. We are planning to go find her."
