Not far away, Ding Mao stood silently.
"Master Ding?" Wen Zhi asked.
Ding Mao came to his senses and bowed immediately, "Young master."
"It's a misunderstanding. I hope Mr. Ding won't take it to heart." Wen Zhi explained.
Ding Mao nodded, "Everyone wants to catch the murderer."
"Did you meet my father at the border?" Wen Zhi asked.
Ding Mao looked at her legs, "Your legs..."
"It doesn't matter!" Wen Zhi shook his head, understanding that he was talking about him, which further showed that there was something fishy between him and his father. "It was just an accidental fall."
Ding Mao nodded and cupped his hands, "I have something else to do, so I'll take my leave now!"
However, before he had even taken two steps, he looked back at Wen Zhi, his eyes filled with complex emotions that were incomprehensible, "The young host's family has never been to the border, right?"
"No!" Wen Zhi replied.
Ding Mao smiled and said, "If you have a chance, you should go and see it."
After saying that, he left without looking back.
Wen Zhi frowned, why did he hear these words, so strange?
Looking back at Xiao Changling who left in a hurry, April hesitated, "Miss, what is this uncle doing in such a hurry?"
"Nine times out of ten, someone will come over there to urge him to go home!" Doesn't Wen Zhi still know what the Xiao family's methods are?
I've experienced this before and it was so painful.
Don't worry now, naturally I don't feel anything.
"Let's go to the street." Wen Zhi didn't want to stay in the house, seeing some people upset.
Although Li County is a small county, its long streets are still lively.
This is the only way to go between Beijing and other states. Whether students going to Beijing to take exams or merchants doing business, they all have to pass through this pass, so this is also the origin of the Wen family's industry.
Looking at the wonton noodles in the bowl, Wen Zhi felt his stomach churn, and the piece of skin in the pavilion was still in his mind. He was obviously very hungry, but he felt like vomiting after seeing anything, even if he was away from the Wen family, the smell of blood Still lingering in my nose.
"Miss, how much can you eat?" April could tell that she was feeling extremely uncomfortable. "Later, I will buy you some sour plums and squeeze them."
Wen Zhi couldn't eat anymore, "Let's go!"
When they arrived at the dried fruit shop, April entered the door, Wen Zhi sat on the wooden wheel and waited, "Miss, please wait, the slave will be out soon."
There are people coming and going on this street, and because of the murder, the government officials are constantly patrolling the streets, so it is naturally the safest.
But when April came out with a big bag of preserved fruits, there was only a wooden cart left at the door, and Wen Zhi was no longer around.
"Miss?" April was anxious and hurriedly asked the vendor next to him, "Have you seen the people in this car? Have you seen my lady?"
"Oh, she got up and went into the alley." The vendor said hurriedly.
April hurriedly ran to the alley, but when she reached the other end of the alley, there was no trace of her young lady.
"Miss? Miss!" April's heart was beating wildly.
The young lady had an injury on her leg. Even if she got up and walked, she wouldn't be able to go very far. How could she lose it?
Where are people?
Wen Zhi actually didn't go far, he just followed Ding Mao, pushed open a wooden door, and entered a courtyard tremblingly.
There must be something weird about this Ding Mao!
The yard is not big, just an ordinary small courtyard.
She followed Ding Mao carefully, trying to keep a distance. Although her legs hurt, it didn't matter if she walked slowly, she just couldn't run.
Suddenly, Ding Mao suddenly turned around, as if he noticed something strange behind him.
Wen Zhi hurriedly hid in a corner, hearing the approaching footsteps, and his heart was already in his throat.
Ding Mao narrowed his dangerous eyes, the short blade in his sleeve had fallen, and he was holding it tightly in his left hand.
A cat suddenly jumped down from the wall and ran around the corner with a "meow".
Ding Mao was startled, and then he breathed a sigh of relief. He looked around to make sure that everything was fine, and then he strode away.
Wen Zhi closed his eyes tightly, a thin layer of sweat dripping from his forehead...
