Portable Space: Reborn Little Couple

Chapter 140
The sudden knock on the door made Mo Qianrui's heart twitch.

The voice should be a girl shouting, and it sounds familiar, but the voice is slightly distorted because of the harshness in the voice.

Mo Qianrui just paused for a moment, and immediately ran over to open the door.

This year, there are not as many deceptions as in the previous life. In this day and night, even if it is snowing, such things as burglary will not happen.

"Huh? Mei Niang?"

Even though he already thought that the person calling the door should be an acquaintance, Mo Qianrui was still quite frightened when he saw Meiniang's familiar face.

It has been almost half a year since the fire in Mo and Li's family. Although Meiniang was seriously injured at the beginning, she has almost recovered now.The scar on her forehead only left a faint scar, and although her injured left eye could see things blurry, if she didn't know it, she shouldn't notice the abnormality of her eyes.

However, since the accident, Meiniang has been staying at home and never went out again.

Today this is...

"Girl, did your father go to Wanhua County with me to buy goods? Has he got any news?"

"What? Didn't my father go to Luluo Town? Isn't he with my grandma?"

When Mo Qianrui heard what Meiniang yelled, his heart was tightly held together.But at this moment, my mind is a little dazed. Father has long since resigned from Wanlong Cloth Village. It has been two months, right?Even though her family was in Mingyue Town, the only ones she was familiar with were the Li family, but she clearly remembered that her daddy was chasing after grandma, so why not hang out with Uncle Li's family, right?

"What did you say? Didn't your father go to Wanhua County together?"

Seeing Meiniang's face full of eagerness, Mo Qianrui didn't bother to explain the cause and effect, but explained the matter in the simplest two sentences: "Meiniang, my father quit his job with Uncle Li's earlier. It's been two months, right? Although he's not at home now, I'm sure he's gone to Luluo Town."

"So that's the case...then who should I go to? What should I do?"

"Mei Niang? Mei Niang!"

Mo Qianrui reached out and grabbed Meiniang. It was obvious that Meiniang was a little confused because of her anxiety.After calling several times in a row, Meiniang finally responded with a smile, and then said: "I want to go back to Yangliu Village, I'll go find Second Uncle and the others."

"Miniang, are you going to Yangliu Village now? Is it snowing that much?"

The roads these days are not so good, let alone snow, even if it is raining, the roads are full of potholes.

For example, Sanchuan Road in Mingyue Town is paved with bluestone slabs, but when it rains, a lot of dirty water will splash when you step down.You know, Yangliu Village is full of old-fashioned dirt roads. Whenever it rains, it's easy to go down with one foot, but it's extremely difficult to pull out.Mo Qianrui has a deep understanding of this.

Not to mention a snowy day.

"I don't know... Dad should have come back yesterday, but he hasn't seen anyone until now."

"What's the matter?" Hearing what Meiniang said, Mo Qianrui was relieved, "It's snowing so much, Uncle Li must have been unable to travel, so he rested in the inn. It's okay."

"But coming from Wanhua County is by boat! And I, I heard that a boat capsized yesterday!"

Mo Qianrui was dumbfounded for a moment.

In fact, until now, Mo Qianrui still couldn't figure out the means of transportation and the road map here.Earlier, she had heard from Tang Yanxiu that after he left Jingdu County, he found a pier to take a boat to Luyang County.But she didn't know the situation near her home.

After being stunned for a moment, Mo Qianrui suddenly thought of something.

"Miniang, let me go to Qiao's house with you to inquire about it? Didn't you just say that Uncle Li's is here to buy goods? He should be doing things for Qiao's house. Ask them, it will definitely work!"

This was the most direct and most effective method, but Meiniang hesitated.

Of course Mo Qianrui understood what she was hesitating for. After thinking for a while, she said, "How about I help you ask? Meiniang, think about it, even if we went to Yangliu Village to find your second uncle and the others right away, how could we still ask?" Don't you have to find another person to inquire about the news? Your second uncle and the others are all country mud legs, what can they know?"

"Then... let's do it."

In fact, Mo Qianrui could tell that Meiniang was still reluctant.She wouldn't be happy if it was changed.It's not that he has any objections to the Qiao family, but that after those things happened before, it's impossible for normal people to face the Qiao family calmly.

It's just that Meiniang's worries about Uncle Li's family overwhelmed everything, or Mo Qianrui's "I'll help you ask" took the top spot.

Turning around to say hello to A Niang, Mo Qianrui closed the courtyard door and dragged Meiniang to Qiao's house.

Mo Qianrui has been to this Qiao's house once before.That time, I followed my father and asked all the way.Fortunately, she found Qiao's house easily.

It's just that along the way, Meiniang kept her head down, not saying a word, she didn't even look at the road, and let Mo Qianrui drag her forward.

Fortunately, it wasn't too far from the small courtyard that Mo's rented to Qiao's house. After walking for about a quarter of an hour, he finally saw the gate of Qiao's house.

"Girl, can you go over alone and ask, okay? I'll wait for you right here."

"Ok."

After all, she's just a 15-year-old girl, and it's normal for her to lose face.You know, if there was no accident half a year ago, Meiniang would be the future mistress of the Qiao family.

Mo Qianrui sighed secretly in her heart, but she didn't stop, she went straight forward and knocked on the door of Qiao's house.

After a while, the guards in the gatehouse came out.

"I'm a friend of the young lady of Qiao's family. Could you please inform me?"

The concierge took a look at Mo Qianrui, then slapped his head suddenly, and said, "Are you that cousin of the young mistress? I remember, you were here last time? It was the time when my old lady disappeared?"

"Yes."

Although it was Mo Qianrui who borrowed the name of Li Jia Huiniang that time, she didn't bother to explain so much now, anyway, the Li family wouldn't expose her.

The concierge didn't go in to report, but called another person and led Mo Qianrui in.

Come to think of it, although this Qiao family shows that the wealthy families in Yuezhen are still different from those rich and powerful families.At least, the access control is not so strict.

Follow the little servant to go inside, halfway there, a little servant girl leads the way.Because Mo Qianrui came here once, he knew at a glance that he was going to take her directly to Liniang's yard.

In fact, if possible, she would prefer to discuss this matter directly with the young master of the Qiao family. After all, Liniang's typical temperament is that success is more than failure.If she tells the truth, maybe Liniang will collapse into something.But if she didn't tell the truth, what reason would she use to inquire about the news?

Fortunately, God is still on her side.

As soon as he entered Liniang's yard, Mo Qianrui saw the eldest young master of the Qiao family. He was standing in the yard talking to a woman. When he looked up and saw Mo Qianrui, a trace of consternation and uneasiness flashed across his face. .

This is not right!
Mo Qianrui admitted that although she often went to Li's house and didn't come to Qiao's house very often, she came here once anyway, and the young master of Qiao's family also knew that she had a good relationship with Liniang.It's not unusual to come here once in a while, right?

"You go back first." The eldest young master of the Qiao family waved his hand at the old woman, then casually dismissed the little maid who brought Mo Qianrui over, then winked at Mo Qianrui, and walked straight out of the yard go.

This is... asking her to follow?

No matter what the look in the eyes of the young master of the Qiao family meant, Mo Qianrui came to look for him anyway, so naturally he followed without hesitation.

"Master Qiao's family, is something wrong with Uncle Li's family?" As soon as he walked out of the yard, Mo Qianrui asked straightforwardly.

Probably because he didn't expect Mo Qianrui to ask so directly, the young master of the Qiao family was obviously taken aback, but then smiled wryly: "How much do you know?"

She doesn't know anything!

Even if he doesn't know the truth, Mo Qianrui has never lacked the ability to make up his mind.Recalling all the words Meiniang said before, Mo Qianrui said again: "Uncle Li went to Wanhua County to buy goods for Wanlong cloth village, and he took the waterway. He was supposed to be back yesterday. But until now, there is no news. If you are traveling by land, it is reasonable to take a short rest when encountering heavy snow, but if you are traveling by water... the young master of the Qiao family, someone on the pier said that a boat capsized."

Every time Mo Qianrui said a word, the wry smile on Young Master Qiao's face became more serious, and after she finished speaking, Young Master Qiao's originally handsome face was wrinkled into bun folds.

"Oh, what you said is right. However, I haven't found anyone yet, so I can't be sure if something really happened."

After the young master of the Qiao family nodded in affirmation, Mo Qianrui's heart sank to the bottom of the valley.

"That sinking ship was really..."

"Yes, but it didn't sink completely. The news I got is that the whole ship was turned upside down, and no one has been found yet."

The young master of the Qiao family was a little hesitant, as if he didn't know whether he should say the next thing or not.However, after a while, he still asked: "Ms. Mo, who told you these things? It's for no reason. You shouldn't pay special attention to my father-in-law's whereabouts, right?"

This is true.

Mo Qianrui ran to Li's house almost every day, and sent Erya there in the morning, but Uncle Li's family had long since disappeared.When he picked Erya back at night, Uncle Li hadn't finished work yet.After all, in the entire Li family, the most difficult person Mo Qianrui saw was the uncle of the Li family, and even Aunt Hua was very familiar with her now.

"It was Meiniang who told me that she was very worried and didn't dare to come to ask, so she asked me to come and ask."

"Sure enough..." The young master of the Qiao family sighed, "Is she waiting outside my house now?"

As soon as the words fell, before Mo Qianrui could answer, the young master of the Qiao family walked outside quickly.Mo Qianrui had no choice but to trot to keep up.

What will happen when the former lovers who were forced to separate due to accidents meet alone?

After all, this should be the first time Meiniang saw the young master of the Qiao family after the accident, right?After all, Meiniang deliberately avoided the previous few times.
