Chapter 55 Cousin Missing
Lu Jingzhi tied it up in a bush next to the mountain stream, and the wood-type ability spawned vines, wrapping it layer after layer.
"I can't be eaten by wild beasts now, right? I won't wait long, and I'll come back at night and take it away."
Humming a song and returning home, I saw Aunt Zheng walking out of their house.
Lu Jingzhi greeted obediently.
"Xiao Miao is back?" Aunt Zheng took her hand, looked at the big basket behind her, and laughed, "Xiao Miao is really capable, and brought back a basket full of wild vegetables."
Actually not.
Only the top is wild vegetables.
Lu Jingzhi didn't say much, and smiled obediently, "Aunt Zheng is looking for something from my mother?"
Aunt Zheng nodded and said solemnly, "Xiao Miao, have you heard? Your second cousin is lost."
"Jiang Xiaoduo?" Lu Jingzhi shook his head, "I haven't heard of it, I lost it for a few days, have you found it now? Do you need my help?"
Aunt Zheng was a little busy, so she left in a hurry after saying a few words.
After sending Aunt Zheng away and returning home, Lu Jingzhi heard the whole story.
During the three days when she was unconscious, Huxi Village was bustling.
The most lively place is the Jiang family.
The night Jiang Jinxu broke his leg, Jiang Xiaoduo from Dafang disappeared.
The eldest of the Jiang family has two daughters and a son. The second daughter, Jiang Xiaoduo, is fifteen years old this year. She is the daughter of Jiang Dafu and Zhao Chunhan. There is a red birthmark on the left half of her face, and she has not said anything about her marriage until now.
Jiang Xiaoduo's mother, Zhao Chunhan, has a temperament similar to Shen's, and can even be said to be softer than Shen's.
Jiang Xiaoduo is not a girl who can speak well, and her life can be imagined.
"Could it be that the Zhang family took him away?" Lu Jingzhi made a bold guess, "The Zhang family can't marry Jiang Caier, so they can only choose Jiang Xiaoduo as the next best thing?"
Jiang Tanyue frowned, "In my imagination, the Zhang family would fight Jiang Caier with Mrs. Jiang, or they would have to return fifty taels of silver, and would not choose Jiang Xiaoduo, who was almost disfigured."
But in case she guesses wrong...
"Did Jiang Xiaoduo disappear on the night that Jiang Jinxu disappeared?" Lu Jingzhi tapped the table with his fingertips, and made a bold guess again, "I picked up Jiang Jinxu and his sister from the deep mountain, could Jiang Xiaoduo also be on the mountain? ? I just didn't see it?"
Once the seeds of doubt were planted in his heart, Lu Jingzhi's heart began to be unbearable like a cat scratching.
"Who found out she was missing?" Lu Jingzhi asked.
"Ms. Zhao discovered it. That afternoon, she found that her daughter hadn't returned home, so she went out to look for it. She was scolded by Mrs. Jiang and stayed to work. Later, Jiang Jinxu was injured and carried back. At that time, except for Zhao Shi, no one cares whether a family has more or less girls."
The gossip for so many days is not for nothing.
Shen Nanwei narrated everything she knew in detail, and finally said regretfully, "It's been three days, so much luck."
Lu Jingzhi muttered, "Everyone went crazy that day, and ran out one by one."
Jiang Wunian pinched the hem of his clothes and shook his head, "No, at noon that day, because of some trivial matters, grandma scolded my second cousin, and I was involved when she scolded and scolded. I went to the mountain after dinner..."
Some things happened next, Jiang Wunian ran into the deep mountain in a daze.
The whole person was shocked and frightened.
My mind is extremely confused.
