Chapter 1178
It's just that they didn't expect him to arrive earlier than they expected. It seems that he has been traveling day and night without stopping for the past few days.

"So he should be in town tonight?"

Du Xiaozhu put away the map carefully, the route has basically been determined just now, if there is no accident, just follow the reservation.

Yingsha saw that Du Xiaozhu was only taken aback for a moment, but immediately reacted, and couldn't help admiring her ability to respond.

If it were an ordinary woman, she would be in a hurry if the plan was disrupted.

"Today, I'm afraid we won't be able to make it. I don't know where Ling Fan found out about Du Rufeng's arrival in Lou County. Now, he stopped me and asked me to go to the county government."

It is true that Du Rufeng arrived in Lou County in the morning, but he is still in the county government at this moment, so he might not be able to make it today.

Du Xiaozhu didn't find it strange that Ling Fan invited Du Rufeng. After all, Ling Fan's father and Du Rufeng were officials in the same dynasty, so it was normal for the two to know each other.

What she was more concerned about was where did Ling Fan get the news that Du Rufeng would be going to Lou County today, but he actually stopped him directly.

If it wasn't for the letter that Du Rufeng sent him in advance, just from how well-informed he was, it could also show that this Ling Fan was no ordinary person.

In Du Xiaozhu's plan, it was indeed to take advantage of Du Rufeng's influence and have him escort them along the way, which would be easier than going on the road by themselves.

But she originally thought that based on Du Rufeng's itinerary, they should have met Du Rufeng after they left Lou County.

Avoid meeting Du Rufeng in the town, which can also reduce some troubles.

Du Xiaozhu couldn't help thinking whether to go on the road ahead of time or wait for them to come, but Du Rufeng once again surprised them.

Originally, he thought that he would not come to town until the next day at least, but he didn't expect him to find him that night.

Du Xiaozhu is not surprised that during this period of time, one after another, people visited late at night.

Therefore, when Yang Xiuning opened the courtyard door and saw Du Rufeng outside, he just said coldly, "Who are you looking for so late?"

"I'm looking for Mrs. Du."

During the day, Du Rufeng heard about Du Xiaozhu from Ling Fan, and knew that she was now running her own business, and outsiders called her Lady Du.

And Ling Fan also confirmed from Du Rufeng's mouth that Du Xiaozhu was the person he had met when he was a child.

In fact, he already knew it, and now confirming it from Du Rufeng is just a complete give up.

Hearing that he was looking for his young daughter-in-law, Yang Xiuning frowned slightly, making a gesture to close the courtyard door, and said impatiently, "My wife, rest, we'll talk about things tomorrow."

Yang Xiuning's reaction was the most correct in the current situation. No husband would be happy to have a man come to find his wife in the middle of the night.

Although he had already guessed Du Rufeng's identity when he saw Du Rufeng, Yang Xiuning's displeasure was not feigned.

Even if Du Rufeng is Du Xiaozhu's elder brother, there is no reason for Du Xiaozhu to come out to see him in the middle of the night.

Du Rufeng saw that the gate of the courtyard was about to close in front of him, so he hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop it.

"Don't misunderstand, Mrs. Du is her younger sister. She was kidnapped and sold here a few months ago. The elders in the family can't find it. It's hard for me to hear the news. Knowing that my younger sister is here, I'm so desperate." Don't wait for Leu Ye to find it, please understand my mood."
