Chapter 313: Missing

Chapter 313 Missing

Wen Rugui’s face is sallow, her cheeks are sunken, her skin is loose and she looks at least ten years older than her actual age.

Hearing that he asked for water, Chang Shi frowned in disgust: “Drink every day, drink yourself like a ghost, and in the end you will have someone to serve you!”

At the beginning, although my hopes of living in a mansion and becoming a noble lady were all in vain, I thought that the man would have some connections in the capital for many years, and that his son would be able to make a fortune in the future by studying hard. , I only know how to use wine to drown my sorrows.

As the days passed, facing a drunken alcoholic, no amount of patience turned into complaints. After a while, the complaint becomes resentment.

She wished that Wen Rugui would die immediately, and stop wasting the family money, but she couldn’t die because of her son’s imperial examinations.

Chang held a bowl of water and poured Wen Rugui a few sips. His movements and gentleness were not at all involved, in exchange for Wen Rugui coughing.

Hearing the movement, Wen Hui walked in with the book: “Is father all right?”

“What can I do. Don’t worry Hui’er, go read your book.”

Wen Hui glanced at Wen Rugui on the sickbed, a little worried in his eyes. As for whether he is worried about his father or whether he is worried about affecting the imperial examinations, it is hard to say.

“It’s getting dark, my sister hasn’t come back yet, I’ll go look for it.”

Chang Shi hurriedly stopped him: “Go to Wenshu, mother to find.”

“Mother–”

“It won’t be long before he ends, nothing is more important than this.” Chang urged his son to continue to study, changed into a blue cloth and went out.

Although it was almost dusk, the heat wave came as soon as he went out. Chang was sweating after walking a few steps, and his expression became more and more impatient.

The tight life has worn away her tenderness, and she can only cope with the impatience of firewood, rice, oil and salt.

“This dead girl, if she asks for money, she will disappear. It’s really worrying!” She cursed and walked in the direction of Prince Jing’s mansion, but she didn’t find Wen Qing along the way.

The   Golden Crow fell completely, leaving only a dark blush that dyed the western sky. Chang looked up at the sky, and his heart began to sink.

Could it be that he ran into that shrew Lin Wanqing?

Chang did not think that Lin Hao would hurt his daughter. In her opinion, no matter how high Ren Lin’s status is, the blood of Wen Rugui still flows in his body. If he has money and status, he wants money, which is why she didn’t let her daughter go to Lin Chan.

Although Lin Chan is softer than Lin, she can marry in a civil servant’s mansion. This kind of family often has many rules and searches, and her daughter-in-law is not so free.

I was afraid that Qinger would meet Lin Wanqing, the shrewd shrew, and Xiucai would meet soldiers. Considering the distance between King Jing’s mansion and the General’s mansion, this possibility is not small.

Chang hurried to Prince Jing’s mansion and knocked on the door.

The doorman looked at it: “You are—”

Chang pulled out a smile: “The little girl came to find her sister today, but she hasn’t seen her since, so I’m here to ask.”

“I don’t know what errand your maid is doing in our palace?”

“The little girl’s elder sister is the wife of the prince of your house.”

The doorman frowned: “Isn’t it right, I didn’t hear that Mrs. Shizi has a younger sister.”

He suddenly remembered the excitement he saw today, and his expression changed: “Are you that girl’s mother?”

The girl was pestering Mrs. Shizi at the entrance of the General’s Mansion, but he saw it and knew the identity of the girl, and when he looked at the woman in front of him, he naturally lost his face.

“Your daughter took the money given by our wife and left. If you are looking for a daughter, go elsewhere.”

Seeing that the doorman was about to close the door, Chang Shi hurriedly stopped it with his hand: “You said my daughter took the money and left? When was that?”

The doorman looked impatient: “In the afternoon, I will leave in less than two quarters of an hour. Go find it elsewhere.”

“But—” Mr. Chang stepped forward, and the tip of his nose was almost caught by the door that was forced shut.

She was unwilling to pat the door a few times, but the door didn’t move, so she had to find it along the way back.

When Wanjia was lit up, and the night was getting darker, Mr. Chang returned home with the hope that Wen Qing had already gone back, but it came to nothing.

Wen Hui was also anxious when he heard it: “Mother, let’s go out to find it together.”

The mother and son went out together, and went to the place where Wen Qing might go in one direction.

Gradually, the lights in the houses went out, the bustling shops closed, the streets became empty, and the sound of beating was heard far away.

Chang Shi and Wen Hui met again, and their faces were pale.

“Didn’t find Qing’er?”

Wen Hui rarely does this kind of activity, so he was out of breath: “No, mother didn’t find her sister?”

Chang shook his head and stomped his feet while looking at the sky like Momo: “It must have fallen into the hands of that shrewd woman and mother and daughter!”

“Mother means Lin… Mrs.?”

Chang Shi sneered: “Who else is there besides her? No, I’m going to find them!”

“Ordinarily they don’t need to embarrass my sister.” Wen Hui felt that something was not right.

“Ordinarily? Ordinarily, that shrew shouldn’t be righteous with your father! Hui’er, you go home, and my mother goes to Jing Wangfu to find someone.”

“I’ll go with you.”

Chang’s first reaction was to refuse: “No, those of you who are going to take a scientific examination soon, don’t get involved in these things.”

“That can’t be without my sister, I’m still closed to study…”

“You are taking care of your seriously ill father at home, and you are doing your filial piety.” Mrs Chang pushed Wen Hui to let him go back and hurried to Prince Jing’s mansion.

In the darkness of the night, the lanterns under the eaves of Prince Jing’s mansion swayed slightly and sprinkled orange light on the two stone lions in front of the door.

“why is it you again?”

Seeing that the doorman was about to close the door, Chang shouted: “My daughter is gone!”

“It’s gone? Then you look elsewhere, what are you doing here?”

“I want to see your madam!”

The doorman’s face darkened: “Saposa has come to the palace? Hurry up, hurry up, or you will be brought to justice!”

“When I see an official, I will see an official. My daughter will disappear when she comes to find Mrs. Shizi. I still want to report to the official!”

It was quiet at night, and with Chang’s trouble, many people came out to take a look out of curiosity.

Lin Hao was chatting with Qi Shuo, and when they heard the report, the two walked out.

“What happened?” Qi Shuo asked.

The doorman hurriedly said: “It’s this woman who said that her daughter disappeared after she came to look for Mrs. Shizi, so she’s here to make trouble.”

Lin looked so good at Chang’s, he almost didn’t recognize him.

The woman in the blue cloth dress had a savage face and a rounded person, and she was different from the beautiful and weak woman two years ago.

Chang recognized Lin Hao at a glance, and rushed over: “Where’s my daughter? Where did you get my daughter?”

“Wen Qing didn’t go home?” Lin Hao’s heart moved.

The doorman said from the side: “This woman came here once before.”

“Have you been to the places she frequents?”

Chang shi cried excitedly: “I’ve searched all over! I know you blame us in your heart, but no matter how innocent Qinger is, please let Qinger go…”

Lin Hao and Qi Shuo looked at each other and had guesses in their hearts.

New month, everyone.
