After dinner, Qin An sent Tuan Tuan to Cuilan's house. Su Yan naturally knew what he was going to do?
Sure enough, the trouble started at night.
Finally, she couldn't bear it anymore and fell into a drowsy sleep. When she woke up, her whole body felt like vegetables that had been fried for several hours.
When he came back for dinner at noon, Su Yan muttered in a low voice, "I must have dozed off while studying."
Qin An looked very good, and while taking the bowl and chopsticks, he said in a low voice: "No, this master even praised me for my calligraphy."
"Daughter-in-law, although I am old, I have good physical strength."
He thought of something and said again: "Master asked me to go to a book club tomorrow. You go with me."
Su Yanjin was told that she had a book club by the lake. A long desk had been set up, and she was already hanging calligraphy and paintings.
There will definitely be a lot of people going there tomorrow.
"Would it be bad if I went?"
There must be a lot of men going to the book club, and probably not many will take their wives to the book club.
Qin An held the bowl and chopsticks and said nonchalantly: "You can go if you want."
Su Yan didn't say anything more, "Okay, I'm going to see if the clothes I washed yesterday are dry. If they're not dry, I'll bake them. I'll put them on and go out." After saying that, she touched the clothes in the yard and found that they were slightly moisturized.
She mentioned that the kitchen was hanging, and then went to the main room to eat.
A few people were just getting ready to eat when there were noisy sounds outside, and the woman's sharp voice said, "Killing, killing."
Before there was any response, a woman ran in with a flustered look on her face.
I am used to keeping the courtyard door open for ventilation on weekdays, and just now I left it open for dinner.
Seeing this, Qin An's expression changed, and he quickly stood in front of Su Yan and the others and said, "Daughter-in-law, come into the house quickly."
As soon as he finished speaking, a man came in with a kitchen knife, his face full of anger, "Damn you, I will chop you to death for stealing someone behind my back!"
"You don't want to live today."
The woman turned pale with fright, ran to the main room and squatted behind Qin An, "Please, help me."
Su Yan was shocked and quickly asked Cuilan and the others to take the two children into the house.
As soon as she reached the door, the man suddenly rushed towards Qin An with a knife, "Did you touch my wife? I will chop you to death."
Su Yan's expression changed, and the next moment, Qin An smashed the bench with his hands, and the knife in the man's hand fell to the ground.
There was a "clang" sound.
Then he stepped on the man's chest, and the man let out an "ah" sound.
Su Yan breathed a sigh of relief and was about to run out to report to the police when she saw the panicked woman picking up the kitchen knife on the ground and rushing over.
Su Yan's expression changed. She didn't care whether she would be injured or not, so she ran over and hugged her from behind. The woman struggled to get over.
Her strength was so amazing that Su Yan was startled and felt something was wrong, and she didn't dare to let go.
Seeing the knife swinging back and forth in her hand, Qin An's expression changed. He didn't care about the man at his feet, strode over and kicked the woman on the wrist.
Suddenly the kitchen knife fell to the ground.
Su Yan said anxiously: "Ms. sir, tie them up and report them to the official."
Qin An also noticed that there was something wrong with the two men, turned around and kicked the man who was trying to run away, and then punched him hard.
Suddenly the man rolled his eyes and fell to the ground, with nosebleeds flowing down his cheeks.
When the woman saw that the man had fallen, she looked a little panicked and struggled hard. At this time, Zhang Xiu came out of the room and came over to help Su Yan hug the woman.
She said in a panic: "Madam, are you okay?"
"It's okay, you go report it to the official."
Su Yan grabbed the woman's hand and pulled it back hard. The woman let out an "ah" sound in pain and knelt on the ground crying.
She still has some strength in cooking.
"Erdan!" Cuilan's voice came from inside the house.
Su Yan looked over and saw Sun Erdan running over with a stool, smashing it on the woman's body and crying: "Mom, run away."
Su Yan's heart warmed, and she bent down to pick him up, "It's okay, it's okay. Dad is here, so nothing will happen."
Qin An went to find a rope and tied the two people up. After a while, Zhang Xiu came over with the officers and soldiers.
After the officers and soldiers learned about the situation, they took the two men away, and Qin An followed them to the Yamen.
When he came back after an hour or two, Su Yan handed him a bowl of water and asked with concern: "What did the government say?"
"They said it was a couple quarreling, and no one was hurt. Let's forget about it." Qin An took a sip of water and looked a little gloomy.
Su Yan's face darkened and she said angrily: "Both of them are here for you, how could they let it go like this?"
The woman took advantage of Qin An's hold on the man and rushed over with a knife. She obviously wanted to do something to Qin An.
"The Yamen has sent them back."
Qin An looked at Su Yan with a worried expression and said, "Daughter-in-law, I will send you back to live in the town."
How could Su Yan return to town when she knew someone was going to kill him? She couldn't figure out why someone would want to kill Qin An when he was in the academy all day long.
It can't be Xiao Lan's side.
If they were there, they wouldn't be so mean. These two people were obviously ordinary people.
She was lost in thought.
"Ms. sir, we can't hide from this matter. We must investigate it thoroughly."
"Did you have any trouble with anyone in the academy?"
Qin An thought about it carefully, shook his head and said, "No."
"Those two couples are from Shuiya."
Shuiya is a poor house in the county town, just like in the village.
The two of them had no idea for a while, so they could only put it down and take the children back to the yard.
Sun Erdan was so frightened that his face turned pale. Su Yan coaxed him back to the house and fell asleep.
This matter has spread throughout most of the county. Master Ren asked Mrs. Ren Li to come over and see if there was anything he could do to help.
When Ren Li left, Su Yan was sitting on the stone table sorting green onions. She was stunned for a moment. She probably didn't expect that she could still sit down and sort green onions after such a big incident.
She put the supplements she brought next to her, "Are you okay?"
Su Yan wiped the stone bench with a handkerchief, nodded and said, "It's not bad."
"If you don't come today, I'll look for you tomorrow."
"Can you help me make an appointment with Mrs. Jiang?"
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Ren Li nodded happily. She was quite familiar with Mrs. Jiang, "Yes, can this matter be resolved now?"
"No, I suspect those two people are here for my husband-in-law."
Su Yan didn't hide it from her. Now the Ren family and her are like grasshoppers on the same rope.
Ren Li frowned slightly and said in a low voice: "I'm afraid it's someone from the academy. My husband-in-law said that your husband-in-law is very good at studying and his wives are all good to him."
"You're blocking other people's way."
Su Yan thought so too, otherwise there would be no more appropriate reason.
But we have to produce evidence to find the person behind it. "So I want the government to re-investigate, but this time the government hastily solved it."
"It's no use asking Mrs. Jiang for this matter. You need money."
Ren Li glanced around, lowered her voice and said, "The county magistrate is a corrupt official."
Hearing this, Su Yan was silent for a while, "Then I'll try it tomorrow."
After Ren Li left, she took the green onions into the kitchen, looked at Qin An who was cutting the meat, and whispered to him: "Ms. sir, I suspect that someone bribed the county magistrate with money in advance for this matter."
They all stabbed people with knives, but they still let them go.
