Chapter 28 What I Forgot
Since it was late at night, Xia Yan didn't light up the lamp when he saw that the hidden guards were in a row.

But in the darkness, Lian Qi saw the light of wisdom flickering in his master's bright black eyes.

"Yes, master."

Lian Qi nodded very seriously, "At that time, my subordinates almost wanted to help when they saw the dangerous scene."

"In the end, I didn't expect things to turn around too quickly, and my subordinates didn't have a chance to perform."

Xia Yan was thoughtful: "Changhe Village? Who is Lizheng?"

"It's an old man named Xu Jinhuai who is almost fifty."

Lian Qi hurriedly said, "According to my subordinates, the Xu family is a big family in Changhe Village, with a total of five houses. Xu Jinhuai belongs to the eldest grandson of the big house, and has three sons and three daughters."

"The eldest son, the second son, and the eldest wife are all married and have children. The second daughter is engaged but not yet married. The youngest son is studying in the town. The remaining daughter is still young, so I haven't asked much about it."

"His parents and grandmother are still alive. As for the side branches, the subordinates have not inquired too much for the time being."

Xia Yan was thoughtful: "Well, step back."

"Subordinates retire."

Lian Qi retreated out of the room with fists in his hands, closed the door gently, and then disappeared into the darkness in a flash.

Even the man in black who had been guarding outside didn't know where he was hiding at the moment.

Indoors, Xia Yan was lying on the couch, staring at the darkness unconsciously, but the key information brought back by Lian Qi echoed in her mind:

That girl's family was kicked out of the Hua family's three-bedroom old house for more than three years, and yesterday she suddenly led the whole family to block the door to survive?
What's more, it alarmed Li Zheng and the elders of the Hua clan, and under their witness, made the people in the old house voluntarily break off their relationship and sign a divorce letter?

How could he be so disbelieving?
Based on what that girl has done these two days, she shouldn't have done such a thing just to save her life.

What key clue has been overlooked here?

The man squinted his eyes, still unable to figure out what Hua Da Niu was doing.

He took a deep breath, but gasped because of the injuries on his body.

It took a while to slow down, and then I thought of something: "Come here."

"master."

As soon as the words were finished, the man in black came in, cupped his fists and saluted, "Please tell me."

"Where is Lian San?"

"Returning to the master, news came three times in the evening, and we can arrive here before dawn."

Xia Yan looked at the man in black: "When he comes back, let him come to see me immediately."

"Yes."

The man in black agreed, quietly waiting for the master's next order.

"It's okay, back off."

Xia Yan pondered for a while, and waved his hand to make the guard retreat, while he lay quietly on the couch and fell into deep thought.

"Subordinates retire."

Seeing the master like this, the man in black didn't dare to stay, quickly exited the room and closed the door.

Xia Yan ignored him, staring at the roof with deep eyes, wondering what she was thinking.

It is still snowing outside, and I don't know if the dilapidated Taoist temple where Miss Hua lives can withstand such a blizzard?

Lian Qi's words echoed in his mind again: "Ms. Hua's family has seven mothers and children, some of them have no clothes to wear, and have been nesting in the haystack..."

Xia Yan, who was well-clothed and well-fed since childhood, couldn't imagine what it would be like to nest in that kind of place all day long.

But I also know clearly that such a day is very uncomfortable.

……

"Sister, you got up so early."

Before dawn, Hua Yaoyao got up to strengthen her physical training, but woke up the second girl beside her.

"Well, it's still early, you should sleep more."

Hua Yaoyao responded softly, "It's still snowing outside, it's very cold."

"No, I'll get up and cook."

Seeing the eldest sister like this, Er Niu quickly turned over, "Sister, how about some batter in the morning?"

"Okay, bake a few more corn tortillas."

Hua Yaoyao didn't deny her sister's suggestion, but she didn't want to just drink something that wouldn't make her hungry, "I won't be afraid of the cold when I'm full."
