Chapter 342 Guilt
On the day when the government seized Yongfa Gambling House, another group of troops went to Bu Shiren's home at the same time and took him from his concubine's bed into prison to await interrogation.
Unexpectedly, during the waiting process, someone bribed the jailer with a large amount of money and used a swap trick to replace Bu Shiren. However, the replacement person was 90% similar to Bu Shiren. People who were not familiar with him could not tell that he was a different person.
During the interrogation, Du Wei noticed that the substitute was timid and had no resemblance to the vicious, cunning and cunning image of others, so he guessed that this was not the real Bu Shiren.
After careful identification by other people in the gambling house, it was finally determined that the person in the prison was a double, so Du Wei issued an arrest order and ordered the entire Yamen to work together to arrest Bu Shiren who had escaped.
Just this morning, before Bu Shiren was caught, Zou Chang's body was discovered.
Du Wei suspected that the person who committed the attack was Bu Shiren, and was worried that Song Xixi would be in danger, so he asked Captain Chang to make a quick trip to remind Song Xixi to be careful when going out and beware of Bu Shiren's revenge.
After hearing the whole story, Song Xixi secretly took a breath and thanked Captain Chang: "It's so hard for Uncle Chang to come here. I will act carefully and not give Bu Shiren an opportunity to take advantage of."
After that, she asked: "Have you found Bu Shiren's whereabouts? Do you need me to take 250 and them to look for it together?"
Inspector Chang shook his head: "We haven't found his whereabouts yet, and they can't be used if there are two hundred and fifty. Just stay at home with peace of mind, and don't go anywhere recently."
Song Xixi agreed, and suddenly remembered Ya'er who was still in Wutong Lane, and hurriedly asked Agent Chang to take Ya'er to a safe place, lest Bu Shiren find there and attack her.
Captain Chang quickly agreed.
Later, Song Xixi invited him to come in and have a meal before leaving, but Inspector Chang declined because of his official duties.
Song Xixi couldn't let him leave on an empty stomach, so she filled a big soup bowl with a full bowl of meat and vegetables and asked him to take it with him to eat on the way.
This time, Captain Chang did not refuse, got on the horseback with the big soup bowl in his arms, and soon disappeared in Songjiaao.
Standing outside the yard, looking at the bustling main hall, Song Xixi adjusted her expression, went around to the backyard, took the tray from Niu Hua'er's hand, and helped her pass the dishes to several banquet tables in the house.
Song Cai, who was passing the dishes together, asked, "My dear, what did Mr. Chai tell you?"
Song Xixi didn't want to affect his mood, so she said it in one sentence: "Let's talk about it later."
After Song Cai heard this, he felt that it was not a trivial matter.
Seeing that his daughter was unwilling to say anything, he had no choice but to suppress his curiosity, run back and forth with the tray, and help her deal with the villagers who were also curious.
Niu Dahan and Zhu Sanyu had plenty of money. There were several hard dishes at the banquet, which made the villagers who came to congratulate them feel extremely satisfied. After an hour, they all left with their bulging bellies.
Several women took the initiative to stay and help, gathering tables, chairs and benches and returning them to each house. They also cleaned the mountains of bowls and pans together. The originally messy kitchen and backyard soon became clean.
Zhu Sanyu was not a stingy person, so he picked out the uneaten meat and vegetables as a thank you, which surprised several women. On the way back, he praised the Niu family for their generosity and good work.
In short, this wine presentation has greatly brought the relationship between the Niu family and the Song Jia'ao closer, and they can be considered a smooth integration here and become a part of the Song Jia'ao.
Until then, Song Xixi explained the reason for Chang's visit in front of everyone.
Looking at her family members whose expressions became heavy, she felt deep guilt in her heart: "It's my fault that you have endured dangers you shouldn't have endured."
Niu Hua'er was the first to disagree: "We are a family, what are you talking about!"
Zhang Chunlan immediately took over the conversation: "That is, you work for the government and get the salary from the government. You don't want such a situation to happen, and you didn't deliberately bring danger back."
Song Xixi felt warm in her heart, how lucky she was to meet such a sensible family member.
Song Wufu said solemnly: "You don't need to feel guilty about this. It's better to think about how to avoid the fugitive's revenge. It's best to catch him and eliminate harm for the people, so that we can truly get rid of the danger."
Others agreed: "Yes, as long as we are caught, we will be safe!"
Song Xixi already had an idea in her mind: "If Mr. Zou is really killed by Bu Shiren, with his vengeful character, sooner or later he will come to take revenge on me, and he may even attack you, so you should try not to go out until he is punished..."
…”
Even Qingshan and the others who were studying in the town had to be brought back as soon as possible to prevent the fortune tellers from attacking them first.
Shops in the town have not been able to open recently, and everything has to wait until Bu Shiren is caught.
The Song family had no objection, and the three brothers Song Cai drove a donkey cart directly to the town to take the three brothers Song Qingshan home.
As for Song Niannian who was far away in Fucheng, he was relatively safe.
Now Bu Shiren is a lost dog, and the city is full of people who want to catch him. Even if they want to cause trouble in Fucheng, they can't. They may not know the existence of Song Niannian, and they don't have the ability to find out whether Song Niannian is in Ping'an embroidery workshop.
Afraid of Bu Shiren's viciousness, the Song family and the Niu family were more or less soldiers. They went to the fields together during the day and stayed out at night if they could.
Three days passed in a blink of an eye. The Song family and even the entire Song family were calm and peaceful, without any abnormality. Even the two hundred and five were very quiet, almost never calling during the day and night.
Just when the Song family was wondering if they were too nervous and Bu Shiren couldn't find their way here, a heavy rain came at night, and the mushrooms on the mountain sprouted like bamboo shoots after the rain.
In just one morning, several waves of half-year-old children came to the Song family and invited the Song Xixi brothers and sisters to pick mushrooms.
Bu Shiren hasn't been caught yet, so Song Xixi can't run up the mountain with peace of mind, so she can only find excuses to send them away.
Song An said regretfully: "There are a lot of fungi on the mountain. Some of them are particularly delicious and valuable. It would be a shame if you didn't pick them up!"
Song Qingqing smiled and said, "It's the same thing if you pick up more. Then dry it and sell it in my shop. It should be sold quickly."
Song An said happily: "Then it's settled, the wild fruits I put in your shop last time were sold at a much higher price than those sold on the streets!"
Song Qingqing nodded and agreed with a smile.
Business in the shop is good, and people come and go every day. People who have picked mountain products in the village don't have time to sell them on the street, so they put them on consignment in the shop. They are often easy to sell and can earn a few more cents.
She and her three uncles and three aunts were willing to provide convenience to these people just by asking them casually.
Song An was walking up the mountain with a group of children. As soon as he reached the foot of the mountain, a panting voice came from behind: "Brother An An, wait for me, I'll go with you!"
When Song An turned around, he saw Tongtong who was struggling to run and Tu Maomao who almost fell down after being dragged by her: "Aren't you sick? Why are you picking up fungi with us?"
Tongtong wiped his sweat and looked a little embarrassed on his weak face: "Niuniu's birthday is coming soon, and I want to pick up some fungi in exchange for money to buy her flowers."
