Chapter 161 Who is the most suspicious in Fu’an Village?

 This matter seems to be getting more and more complicated.

Xia Qianqian frowned, thought for a while, turned around to hide her doubts, and asked: "Does this have anything to do with me?"

"Of course it matters!"

Ji Zimo saw her little moves in his eyes and explained to himself: "Since that man can disguise himself as Luo Hong and get in touch with Zhang Dakui, his performance is flawless."

He paused and said firmly: "That person is located next to Zhang Dakui, or in other words, he is hiding near Fu'an Village."

"Then why don't you hurry up and arrest people."

"Yesterday, everyone in the nearby village took their fingerprints and compared them." Ji Zimo explained word for word: "That person was very cunning and did not compare."

"What do you suspect?" Xia Qianqian's thoughts changed, "Could it be that that person is the Jade-faced Immortal in disguise?"

"I don't know."

Ji Zimo picked up the book on the side and continued reading while saying: "Maybe it's him, maybe it's not him. Everything has to wait until the person is caught."

Their conversation with each other came to an end, and the carriage fell into a brief silence.

Only Yuanbao played with the toys selflessly, as if he didn't hear anything.

After a while, the Qingzhang carriage stopped and the Xia family arrived.

Xia Qianqian jumped off the carriage and looked at the house next door, and was dumbfounded for a moment.

When I walked out in the morning, the yard next door was still as messy as it was before the heavy rain.

I haven’t seen you for a long time. A gate has been installed on the wall of the front yard, and red lanterns have been hung under the porch in the backyard.

The door is wide open, and the scene in the courtyard can be seen at a glance.

The ground was cleared and a bluestone path was paved, leading directly to the wing at the back of the courtyard.

In the yard on the left, under a jujube tree, a well was drilled. The brand-new well rope was hanging on the windlass, which was particularly eye-catching.

Xiao Yong was standing in the courtyard, instructing people to move some things inside.

Xia Qianqian was stunned, "What are you..."

The person behind her jumped out of the carriage and stood beside her, holding her hands behind her back, "I plan to move here."

"Move here?"

He built a yard next door to her, and she thought he was doing it on a whim.

She always thought that he would never come to stay.

After all, Jiangcheng Mo Mansion is located in a prosperous neighborhood with abundant materials and convenient transportation.

Fu'an Village, a remote and remote place, is really not worthy of people like him putting down their dignity and living here.

"Why?" She turned to look at his profile.

"In order to be able to look at Fanshan every day and see the soldiers breaking into Fanshan, it makes me a better person."

Xia Qianqian's heart jumped suddenly, she hesitated, and couldn't help but ask: "That person is..."

"It can't be...it's me?" She covered her mouth, surprised, and felt a little secretly happy.

Looking at her sideways, he couldn't figure out what was going on in her mind all day long.

"It's not you!" He categorically denied, "You met him in Mo Mansion that day."

It's him.

The foolish and silly person who called her the Jade-faced Fairy Lord.

"Cuttlefish, do you like men?"

Xia Qianqian was a little shocked. She jumped out and spoke like a dumpling, "You saved Cao Ran and the young man, but you didn't care about me, a virtuous and virtuous person."

Ji Zimo frowned and warned: "Don't mess around."

"What am I doing?"

As she walked back home, she asked: "In the future, if I encounter a crisis, will you be willing to work so hard to save me?"

Ji Zimo: "..." This girl spoke so straightforwardly that he didn't know how to answer the question.

She saw his embarrassment.

So funny.

Her show of kindness to him was just based on his status, wasn't it?

Xia Qianqian put her messy thoughts away and said domineeringly: "What I, Xia Qianqian, like most is money. When you need me in the future, just have the money ready. No need to beat around the bush."

After saying that, she turned around, grabbed Yuan Bao, walked a few steps quickly, and headed home.

No wonder, today he sent toys to Yuanbao and vouchers to her. It turned out that the root of everything was there.

That boy, he moved next door in a hurry because he wanted her to treat that boy.

Ji Zimo stood there, thinking about her words.

I always felt that there was something wrong with the tone of her words, but I couldn’t tell what was wrong.

Geng Zhongying on the side stepped forward and reminded: "Master, will Miss Xia rescue the young master?"

Ji Zimo turned around and got on the carriage.

As the Qing tent carriage moved slowly, his deep voice sounded in the carriage, "She will do it."

"Geng Zhong, how are you doing with the cotton seeds?"

"Your Highness, Philadelphia is the cotton producing area of ​​Daqian Country. The quality of the seeds there is better. I have sent people there to buy it and are rushing back."

Reaching out to lift the car curtain and looking at the receding Fu'an River, Ji Zimo murmured: "In a few days, the land will be renovated. She once asked me for cotton seeds. I can't break her trust."

My eyes swept across a dilapidated village and the old crows' nests on a few dead trees beside the road, and I felt slightly lost in thought.

Jiangcheng is the most barren place in the entire Daqian Kingdom. The lack of material resources has caused the young people here to flee one after another, forming a vicious circle.

If, as she said, colorful cotton is grown and agriculture is vigorously developed, it will definitely drive economic growth and allow people to live a prosperous life.

If every family has food and every household has money, who would collude with bandits and take risks to do fine work?

……

In the Xia family's wing, Yuan Bao was showing Li Yunniang the "Journey to the West" puppet in his box, and he was extremely excited.

While watching, Li Yunniang praised Mr. Mo for his carefulness. Seeing that Xia Qianqian looked wrong, she secretly came forward and asked, "Qianqian, are you worried?"

"It's okay!" Xia Qianqian picked up the cup and took a sip of water, "Mom, you are familiar with the people in Fu'an Village. Who do you think is the most likely bad guy in our village to be a bandit?"

Xia Qianqian's question startled Li Yunniang, "Qianqian, what happened?"

"There's nothing important either."

Li Yunniang is courageous but careful. She should give her a warning, "The government checked everyone's fingerprints yesterday. They may be suspecting that there is a conspiracy hidden in our village."

Li Yunniang was so scared that she covered her chest, "The people in Fu'an Village are all decent people who have grown up here for generations. What's more, now that all the young people have gone out, there is only one Liu Erniu left in the village, who is crazy all day long."

Li Yunniang thought about it carefully and then mentioned: "Wang Feng next door is considered to be in his prime, but he has the dignity to work in the Hu Mansion in Jiangcheng, so he can't ruin his future."

When Ms. Li thought about these things, she started to get dizzy and waved her hands repeatedly, "Forget it, forget it, those are things that the government officials have to consider. We just need to do a good job in business and wait for your father to come back."

When it comes to business, Li Yunniang is a little worried, "Qianqian, our soybeans can probably last until the end of the month. If we continue to do the tofu business, we need to prepare some soybeans."

"I have also thought of these things. Uncle Wang's family still has six acres of land, and I have said hello in advance that I want to buy his beans."

Xia Qianqian pondered for a while, "In the past few days, I went to the village chief and asked him to help me buy some soybeans from other people in the village."

"I'm afraid there is no more."

Li Yunniang said in frustration: "Today, a new tofu shop opened in Xinghua Village next door. Not only did they buy all the beans in this village, they also went to our village to buy them at a high price."

"Qianqian, I passed by the village this afternoon, and some people were talking about going to the Xinghua Village Tofu Shop tomorrow to try their tofu."
