When mentioning Dani, the aunt nodded with reddened eyes,

"It's all my fault. My whole body's illness has dragged down Dani. In order to treat my illness, this child took ten taels of silver from Rich Man Li's house and couldn't pay it. There was no other way, so she married Rich Man Li's son, but... ...But once this person is gone, he will never come back, and even if I want to find someone, I dare not look for him, hey!"

The rich man's son?

These words made the three of Luo Lan look at each other in surprise.

Luo Lan raised his hands to touch the hot water glass, and continued to ask:

"Ma'am, do you mean that your granddaughter Dani is married to the son of the wealthy Li family in Lijiazhuang?"

Madam sighed and nodded,

"Yeah! But after getting married, Dani hasn't come back for more than a year. I went to look for it. The Li family said that Dani had been divorced by them. They also beat me out and let me know. I went to look for it, and asked the government to arrest me, hey! I heard that someone went to Li's house to make trouble before, and was really arrested by the government, and, moreover, died in the sky prison, so I thought, Da Ni should I was divorced, I can't think about it for a while, I have no face to come back, my son and daughter-in-law are gone, Dani is a filial child, she will not leave me, she will come back one day, I, an old woman, can only stay at home I've been waiting."

Luo Lan was completely stunned by what the aunt said. This rhetoric was exactly the same as Shui Chunhua's.

It seems that there must be something wrong with Rich Li's family.

Thinking of this, she got up directly, and said to A Cai and A Hong:

"Let's go to Lijiazhuang."

The aunt who didn't know why hurriedly got up and asked cautiously,

"The girls are leaving now? Drink some water before leaving!"

Looking at the aunt's deep-set eyes and her bony figure, Luo Lan felt sour in her heart.

Although there are many poor people in this world, Luo Lan still feels very sad for the old man who doesn't even know where his granddaughter is, whether he is dead or alive, and lives in such a poor life.

She sat down again, picked up the dirty-looking enamel jar, gulped down a glass of water, then raised the handkerchief to wipe the corners, and said with a chuckle:

"Ma'am, we are just passing by and we have to hurry. Thank you for the hot water. After drinking it, I feel much warmer."

After saying this, she looked at A Cai,

"Ah Cai, there is no reason for us to drink auntie's water for nothing, let's leave some money for auntie."

Hearing this, the aunt hurriedly waved her hands,

"No, no, girl, if you say that, you're out of your league. It's just a bowl of water. How can I collect money?"

Luo Lan took a handful of broken silver from A Cai, put it on the table in front of the aunt, and said with a bitter smile:

"Auntie, there is a rule in our hometown that you can't drink other people's water for nothing, or it will be unlucky, so you have to accept this money, otherwise we will be taboo when we go out?"

Hearing this, the aunt looked at her suspiciously, "Miss, are you serious?"

Luo Lan nodded with a smile on her lips,

"Really, this is the rule of my hometown. If you accept it, we still have to hurry and pass by when we have a chance to see you again."

Luo Lan is willing to tell such a white lie.

The aunt looked at the broken silver on the table, nodded with tears in her eyes, choked up in her mouth,

"Looking at your age, you are as old as my big girl. When I see you, it's like seeing my big girl come back."

Speaking of this, the aunt raised her sleeves and wiped the muddy tears from the corners of her eyes, then grinned with her chapped lips, and the row of jagged teeth made her look extraordinarily old.

Luo Lan couldn't bear to salute her, "Ma'am, we're leaving, I hope your Da Ni will come back soon."

After leaving these words, she took A Cai and A Hong out of this simple courtyard. When they walked a long way, Luo Lan looked back and could still see the aunt standing at the gate of the courtyard, staring at them blankly From time to time, he would raise his sleeves and wipe his eyes.

Like that, it makes people feel sad.

Luo Lan sighed while walking, and said angrily:

"Now it's not as simple as finding Shui Chunhua. I also want to find Dani and the other women. I hope they are all alive."

After saying this, she walked towards the carriage with a solemn expression. A gust of wind blew up and the broken hair on her forehead was blown away in the wind. Auntie's expectant eyes and thin face.

When they came to the entrance of Lijiazhuang Village, Xiao Lingzi and others also came here one after another. After asking them, they found out that none of the other women returned home. They were all beaten up and thrown out, and some even came to find them repeatedly, and were finally sent to the Minghua County Prison.

Hearing these replies, Luo Lan's face was filled with anger.

Standing at the entrance of the village, Luo Lan's expression became indifferent for a while listening to the cheerful sound of drumming and whipping coming from Li's residence.

She glanced in the direction of Li's mansion, lightly lifted the broken hair on her forehead, and said to Xiao Lingzi firmly in her eyes:

"The Li family is getting married again today, so the guards must be lax. You take Zhang Yuan and a few of them to the backyard of Li's house to check if there is anything unusual. I will take A Cai and A Hong to the wedding."

Xiao Lingzi frowned and asked worriedly:

"Princess, this is inappropriate. Let Zhang Yuan accompany you. Let us go to the backyard to check. I am afraid that you will be in danger."

A sharp look flashed in Luo Lan's eyes, then he half-closed his eyes and shook his head,

"In broad daylight, I don't believe that they dare to act recklessly. Go ahead. With A Cai and A Hong accompanying me, nothing will happen. Besides, you are in the backyard of the palace. You can know what happened in front of you. Remember, critical times , ask two people to interrogate, just don’t kill anyone.”

After leaving this order, she led the way with a dignified and majestic expression, while Xiao Lingzi and others followed behind her aggressively.

When Luo Lan brought A Hong and A Cai to the door of the Li Mansion, looking at the two huge red flowers hanging on the gate, Luo Lan suddenly felt a little dazzling, and she didn't know which girl was unlucky today.

The three of them came to the gate, but no one stopped them, probably because there were so many people who came to congratulate them today, so the Li residence's awareness of prevention was much weaker.

The courtyard of the Li Mansion was already buzzing with people. Luo Lan led A Cai and A Hong towards the main hall of the Li Mansion. A human, but a rooster with a big red flower on its head.

Seeing this scene, A Cai directly covered her mouth and exclaimed in a low voice,

"Princess, the groom is actually a chicken?"

Ah Hong carefully reminded:

"Keep your voice down, there's nothing surprising about it. Generally, the groom is not in good health, or has other reasons, so he can find a rooster to pay his respects."

Luo Lan looked up and saw that not only rich man Li was sitting in the main hall waiting for the bride and groom to kneel down, but also Mr. Zhou whom he met yesterday. A middle-aged man in a Taoist robe.

The person in Taoist robes actually sat on the main seat?This is really strange.

Luo Lan frowned and glanced at the woman whose head was covered by a red cloth, feeling a little more worried. She didn't know how much money this woman took from rich man Li to push her daughter into the fire pit.

At this moment, someone stood beside Luo Lan and asked displeasedly:

"Who are you? How do you face each other?"
