Chapter 172: Boss Zheng Has a Clue

Chapter 172 Zheng Butou Has a Clue ([-])
As soon as the news got out, Shanfeng's father hid at home for a while, not daring to go out to see anyone, so he could only get angry at his family, which is another story.

 But Niang Shanfeng and Brother Shanfeng charged the account to the Miao family, always thinking about going back to settle the account someday.

Miao Xiaoyan came out of the brewery and saw Uncle Hu chopping firewood in the yard, so she stepped forward and said with a smile, "Uncle Hu, let me help you."

Old Uncle Hu put down the hatchet, smiled, and said, "No need, the firewood is almost ready."

"By the way, Yanzi, there is one thing I haven't had time to tell you." Old Uncle Hu suddenly remembered something, and said again.

"What's the matter?" Miao Xiaoyan asked.

"When I sent Xiaoque and the others to the private school in the morning, I inquired about Zheng Butou in the town and seemed to have a clue."

"Really?" It has been so many days, and Miao is wondering why there is no news from Zheng Butou.

"I heard from people in the town. They don't know exactly what the clues are. They only know that Zheng Butou went to the county to investigate and may come back later." Old Uncle Hu told Miao Xiaoyan.

"Uncle Hu, if there is no news from Catcher Zheng tomorrow, then we will go to the town to look for him, what do you think?" Miao Xiaoyan said after thinking about it.

"Okay, I'm planning to do that too." Old Hu Shu said.

The next day, Miao Xiaoyan waited anxiously at home until noon, but still did not receive the news from Zheng Butou, so she and Lao Hu drove a carriage to the town.

The two found the place where Catcher Zheng was working, and a yamen servant said that Catcher Zheng hadn't come back to the town yet. Miao Xiaoyan originally wanted Uncle Hu to send her to the county seat, but if Catcher Zheng came back at this time, he would be missed. up.

After thinking for a while, Miao Xiaoyan planned to go to the "Plum Restaurant" to wait for the news. Miao Xiaoyan told the yamen servant and left with Uncle Hu.

As soon as Miao Xiaoyan entered the restaurant, shopkeeper Luo walked out of the counter and said to Miao Xiaoyan:
"Swallow, you're finally here, and my lady said she would go to the village to look for you?"

Miao Xiaoyan was taken aback and asked, "Miss Duan hasn't gone back to her husband's house yet?"

"Not yet, my uncle said that he would come to pick up Miss in a few days, Yanzi, I heard that something happened to your house." Shopkeeper Luo asked with concern.

"Well, something small happened." Miao Xiaoyan said with a smile.

"It's all arsenic, and you're still talking about trivial matters!" Shopkeeper Luo said anxiously.

"Heh, Shopkeeper Luo, you know all of this?" Miao Xiaoyan laughed, not wanting Shopkeeper Luo to worry about her.

"You girl, if my master hadn't asked someone to inquire, would you really want to hide it from us?" Shopkeeper Luo asked a little displeased.

"Master Duan?" Miao Xiaoyan asked in surprise.

"Otherwise, how do you think I would know about this? The master was so worried that he asked you if you came to the restaurant yesterday. If there were no guests at home, he must have gone to the village to see you."

"Shopkeeper Luo, please thank Master Duan for me." Miao Xiaoyan felt warm in her heart, she was not really heartless, she felt that Master Duan treated her well.

"It's all my own people, so there's no need to be so polite, but Yanzi, have you found out who did this?" Shopkeeper Luo asked again.

"Aren't I just about to ask Catcher Zheng to ask about this?"

"Are you asking?"

"Not yet, Zheng Butou went out to investigate the case and hasn't come back yet, I want to wait for him here." Miao Xiaoyan said.

"So that's how it is. Then you go upstairs and wait. You know which room it's in. If someone from the government comes, I'll call you again." Shopkeeper Luo said.

"Thank you, Shopkeeper Luo, but my old Uncle Hu has gone to tie his horse. When he comes in, please bring him up to find me." Miao Xiaoyan said again.

"Row."
