Chapter 697

  Qiao Zhao's hand stopped beside his eyes.

   The voice sounded again: "Miss Li San, if you are interested, you'd better not take off the black scarf."

  Qiao Zhao put his hand down silently, leaning back against the wall of the car and no longer moving.

  The carriage seemed to pass through the downtown area, and there were shouts from outside.

   "Steamed buns, steaming old Wang's buns with thin skin and stuffing, I still want to eat—"

   "Tofu Brain, Sister Yang's Tofu Brain—"

  Qiao Zhao listened, and another voice sounded: "This little girl is quite interesting, she is not in a hurry."

   The previous voice was filled with dissatisfaction: "Speak less, if you talk too much, you will lose."

   "Just a little girl—"

   "She is Champion Hou's fiancee!"

   There was no sound in the carriage, but Qiao Zhao knew that there were at least two other people in the carriage besides her.

   She woke up halfway and couldn't calculate the distance the carriage had traveled, so it seemed she could only wait until she reached her destination and then act accordingly.

  The Li family was still calm at this time.

  Binglu came back after practicing boxing and kung fu, leaning against the corridor while wiping off sweat and asking Ah Zhu, who was guarding the small stove, "What are you cooking? It smells good."

   "Boil some lily shredded chicken porridge and wait for the girl to come back to eat. The girl hasn't had a good rest recently." Ah Zhu stared at the fire intently, and occasionally fanned lightly with a fan a few times.

   "Where did the girl go?"

   "Four girls came over just now, please go to Jinrong Garden."

   "Oh, then I'll go wash first and feed the second cake later."

   The two maids did their own thing, and didn't think much about it.

From    Yahe Garden to Jinrong Garden a few steps away, it is normal for the master not to bring maids with him during activities in the backyard.

   Seeing that it was almost noon and Qiao Zhao was not seen coming back, Binglu was a little anxious: "Azhu, why hasn't the girl come back yet, is it possible that she stayed at the second wife's place to eat?"

Azhu looked at the meat porridge that was on the stove, and was inexplicably a little uneasy: "The second wife is pregnant, the girl shouldn't bother you for too long, even if you stay there for dinner, you should send someone from Jinrongyuan. Say it."

   Mrs. Deng is diligent and thrifty in running the house. Usually, the masters go to the large kitchen to prepare meals according to the number of people. If anyone eats elsewhere, they will explain to the maid.

   "I'll go to Jinrong Garden to see." Binglu quickly left Yahe Garden and went straight to Jinrong Garden. On the way, they met Jinrong Garden's maid carrying a food box and went out.

   "Xiao Ling, do the three of us eat at your wife's place?"

  The little maid shook her head: "No, the sisters didn't explain it to me."

   "That's weird." Binglu waved at the little maid and entered the gate of Jinrong Garden.

   "What, our girl has already left?"

   "Yes, the third girl accompany our wife to talk for a while and then left. At that time, the wife asked the fourth girl to send her, but the third girl did not."

"But our girl didn't go back. Could it be that she went somewhere else?" Bing Lu hurried to He's place, heard that Qiao Zhao hadn't been here, and rushed to Qingsongtang. After looking for a place that could be found, she returned to Ya in despair. Heyuan.

   "Azhu, don't you think it's strange? I searched the backyard and couldn't find our girl. Did the girl go out?"

Ah Zhu said with a solemn expression: "It shouldn't, the girl just said that she will not go out in the near future, not to mention that there are many people outside who want to invite our girl as a guest, even the people from Prince Rui's mansion have come to invite them several times. The name of the girl's illness is blocked, how can the girl go out in this situation? Besides, even if the girl has something really important to go out, she should tell us. "

"what do you mean-"

   "I feel something is wrong, you look at home, I will report to the old lady."

  Azhu walked away after speaking, Binglu chased after him: "What kind of home is there, if I can't find the girl, what kind of home is there!"

  The two maids hurried to Qingsongtang.

   "You said you can't find your girl?" Mrs. Deng's face sank, "Tell me the situation carefully."

   After listening to Ah Zhu's words, Mrs. Deng instructed Qing Yun, "Go and invite the fourth girl."

   It didn't take long for Li Yan to arrive. After some inquiries, Mrs. Deng sent the maid and the old lady to look for it everywhere in the mansion. Until it was getting dark, Qiao Zhao could not be found.

  The atmosphere in Qingsongtang was already low, except for Li Yan's suppressed gasp.

   "Stop crying." Mrs. Deng rubbed her brows.

  Li Yan plopped down on her knees: "Grandmother, it's all my fault. If I hadn't invited the third sister to Jinrong Garden, or sent her back when she left, the third sister would not have disappeared for no apparent reason."

   Mrs. Deng sighed: "I can't blame you for this. Fourth girl, don't tell your mother and your aunt when you don't see your third sister. One of them has just given birth and the other has just given birth, so they can't stand it."

   "Granddaughter got it."

   Mrs. Deng looked at Binglu: "Go and call Chenguang."

   "Ah." Binglu replied and ran quickly.

   "The three girls are gone?" Chenguang was taken aback.

  Binglu wiped her tears and pushed him: "Don't ask, the old lady is waiting to see you, hurry up and follow me!"

   Chengguang hurried to Qingsongtang.

   "Morning light, I believe that your general has arrangements for the safety of the three girls?" Madam Deng asked straight to the point.

   "Yes, all of our people are outside the house. If the three girls go out, we will definitely know."

   "What if someone kidnapped the three girls over the wall?"

   "Old Madam, our people walk around the Loei Mansion for a few steps. If there is such a situation, we will be discovered faster than walking through the gate."

   "That's weird. Mommy Rong, take a few people to the back garden..." Mrs. Deng closed her eyes and said, "Look at that dry well!"

   "Old Madam!" Chenguang jumped in shock, and there was no blood on his face.

   "What are you doing, go!"

  The time became extraordinarily long, until Mama Rong led someone back and shook her head at Mrs. Deng, and Mrs. Deng slumped on the Taishi chair.

   "It's good if you don't have it, it's good if you don't have it." The old lady instantly seemed to be ten years older.

   "Old Madam, I want to know what happened this day. I can't miss anything, especially the situation of entering and leaving the house." Chen Guang said coldly.

   He was calm on the surface, but his heart was cold.

  If something happened to the three girls, how should he explain to the general? Even death, he cannot atone for it!

   Mrs. Deng immediately called the steward for questioning.

  Li Guangwen walked in slightly drunk and blinked in confusion: "Mother, there are a lot of people here today."

   "You still have the face to come back, do you know how many people I sent to find you!"

  Li Guangwen was very aggrieved: "My son doesn't want it either. He was called to drink while he was still in the yamen. He pestered me for an afternoon before getting out. Mother, what happened at home?"

   Mrs. Deng was silent for a moment and said, "I told you to stay calm and don't cause trouble."

  Li Guangwen smiled: "Look at what my mother said, when did my son lose his composure? The one who collapsed in front of Mount Tai and did not change his color refers to his son."
