Chapter 558 Lead the snake out of the hole
Understandable and understandable, shopkeeper Li still has to give face.

Seeing that Mo Qianrui understood what she meant, Tang Yanxiu breathed a sigh of relief, and said to shopkeeper Li Da, "Of course we can understand your feelings, but in the end, men should always shoulder their responsibilities, right? Because I was afraid in my heart, I left my wife and children alone, foster father, do you think this is appropriate?"

Shopkeeper Li was stunned for a moment, and then he sighed heavily: "I understand, I will have someone call Brother Qiao back. You are right, this matter cannot be avoided."

Now that Shopkeeper Li already understood, Tang Yanxiu stopped clinging to this topic.

Instead, he took the initiative to talk about Ling Niang: "As for Ling Niang, do you have any clues now?"

"No, nothing."

For Liniang's mother and daughter, shopkeeper Li is distressed and worried.But as soon as Ling Niang was mentioned, his face immediately showed decadence.

Time has passed too long.

It's been so long that even if Lingniang came back safe and sound, I'm afraid it has already caused irreparable consequences.Not to mention, Alin is not a kind person.Maybe he didn't have the guts to kill someone, but it was easy to destroy Lingniang's innocence.

Even Ling Niang may be very happy.

if……

"Yan Xiu, tell me, if I agree with Ling Niang to marry Ah Lin, will they come back?" After much deliberation, Shopkeeper Li finally expressed his true thoughts.

But as soon as these words came out, the young couple in front of them all showed shock in unison.

"Absolutely not!" Mo Qianrui immediately objected without thinking.

Tang Yanxiu looked at Shopkeeper Li with hesitation. Although he didn't object, it was obvious from his expression that he was unwilling to agree with this idea.

Shopkeeper Li Da sighed again: "If there was another way, I wouldn't do it either."

"Father, your method may not be feasible. Think about it, if Ah Lin didn't run away, the two of them would have to stay in one place without eating or drinking, right? As long as they need to contact the crowd, they can Sooner or later, the location will be revealed. Let's search harder, maybe we will have news tomorrow?"

"But what if they run away? Yanxiu, don't forget that Ah Lin has no money, but Lingniang has taken away a lot of gold and silver. Maybe the capital is not enough for a big business, so you can hire a carriage or pack A boat, that's sure enough."

Mentioning those gold and silver items made shopkeeper Li Da's face even more ugly.

Naturally, he didn't feel sorry for the little money, but was annoyed at Lingniang's disappointment.

Previously, the reason why she was sure that Lingniang left with Ah Lin voluntarily was the key to the missing gold and silver.

Just think about it, A Lin might be able to take Ling Niang away forcibly, and he can also take away the things in Ling Niang's room by the way.But the problem is that not only Lingniang's jewelry is missing, but also Li's stepmother and Liniang's things are missing a lot.

It is absolutely impossible for Alin to go to various rooms and take away gold, silver and soft goods in a completely unfamiliar environment without alarming anyone, and forcibly kidnap a large living person.

Ling Niang, it can only be voluntary.

But no matter how annoyed he was, shopkeeper Li Da still had to find a way to save her.

"Father, what you said is wrong again. If they had already run away, then even if you announced their marriage immediately, how would they know? Isn't that a waste of effort?"

Shopkeeper Li Da hesitated for a while. Obviously, Tang Yanxiu's words were quite convincing to him.

At this time, Mo Qianrui said again: "I think that Ah Lin will definitely not run away. Xiao Xi is now alive and dead, and Ah Lin loves Xiao Xi so much. Can he completely abandon Xiao Xi and go away?" ?”

"Wait!" Tang Yanxiu's eyes suddenly lit up, "I have a plan, lead the snake out of the hole!"

Both of A Lin's parents and elders have passed away, and he has no close friends. The only person he can care about is Xiao Xi.

If Alin suddenly changed his mind to coax Lingniang away because he accidentally learned that Xiao Xi was probably no longer alive, then similarly, Xiao Xi's latest news must be enough to attract him.

Tang Yanxiu's method is not difficult to say.

First, they sent people to salvage the river along the way from Mingyue Town to Yu County, and at the same time spread the news widely.After the news spread, he pretended to have found Xiao Xi's "corpse".After that, he sat and waited for Alin to take the bait.

For this method, Mo Qianrui very much agreed, but shopkeeper Li Da still had some concerns.

What he was worried about was that once the definite news of Xiao Xi's death came out, it would arouse A Lin's ferocity.

In case, if it is not done well and Lingniang is hurt, it will go against the original intention of shopkeeper Li.

"...I don't ask for anything else, but I hope Lingniang is safe and well. Even if I accept A Lin as a son-in-law, I will accept it!"

The young couple looked at each other.

In fact, shopkeeper Li's worries are not unreasonable.Tang Yanxiu hesitated, since it was all a scam anyway, should I change the finding of the "corpse" into finding Xiao Xi's "self".But Mo Qianrui firmly opposed it.

"Yan Xiu, don't be stupid. If this is a so-called 'corpse', we can still do something. For example, put the 'corpse' in a coffin, even if it is only covered with a layer of white cloth, there are some differences in height and shape , and all this can be attributed to soaking in water to swell. But if it is a living person, do you think Alin will be so stupid that he can't even recognize his own sister?"

"That's true. Besides, it's been such a long time. It's really not very credible to say that we have found a living person now." Tang Yanxiu looked at the shopkeeper Li helplessly, "Father, you make a decision." !"

……

Dozens of sampan boats sailed out of the pier one by one by the Yuxian wharf, and scattered fishing nets on the river from time to time.

"What are they doing? Fishing off the pier? How silly?"

"Where is fishing? This is fishing for people!"

"What? Find someone?"

"Isn't it? I heard that a villain was caught. The villain said that he once threw a little girl into the water. No, it's fished."

"My God! This..."

Although Yu County is a county seat, but these days, unless there is an opera troupe coming over, where is there usually any excitement to watch?
In particular, throwing people into the river and sending dozens of sampan boats to catch people are rare sights that never happen in a hundred years.

The pier was full of people, all excitedly discussing the so-called "latest news" with the people around them.

However, in a corner where no one was paying attention, a young man wearing a fisherman's hat and dressed like a boatman listened to the words of others, instead of interrupting, he couldn't help but shed tears.

Xiao Xi...

Is it really dead?
