After hearing this, the woman agreed without saying a word.

"Okay, okay, I'll go and help you call."

The door was not locked, so Lin Jiuyue guessed that Lai Fu and Lai Cai should be at home. She went forward and knocked on the door.

After a long while, the door creaked open.

"Miss? Miss, you are back?"

The moment Lai Fu saw Lin Jiuyue, his expression changed from surprise at first to surprise later.

Lin Jiuyue smiled.

"Well, I'm back. Thank you for your hard work during this period."

When Lai Fu heard Lin Jiuyue's words, there was a hint of sob in his tone.

"Miss, it's not hard, it's not hard, it's what servants should do, except that Xiyue and Uncle Li were arrested and taken to jail."

Lai Fu finished speaking and wiped the corners of his eyes with his hand.

Lin Jiuyue looked back.

From time to time, there would be villagers passing by the roadside at the door.

They said they were villagers passing by, but in fact they were people who heard that Lin Jiuyue had returned and deliberately passed by Lin Jiuyue's house to eavesdrop on the gossip.

"I've heard about this matter. Let's go inside and talk about it."

Lai Fu also saw the villagers at the door. After hearing what Lin Jiuyue said, he stepped aside to make way for Lin Jiuyue to come out. After Lin Jiuyue entered the courtyard, he closed the gate again.

"Miss, you must have been exhausted from traveling all the way. I will go and make you a cup of tea."

After Lai Fu finished speaking, he turned around and went to make tea.

Lin Jiuyue sat at the table in the yard, tapping her fingers lightly on the table.

Not long after, Lai Fu brought the brewed tea.

"Miss, I am not very good at making tea, so please just drink some of this tea."

Lin Jiuyue is a more casual person. He can drink good tea and ordinary tea.

If you are really thirsty, you can drink the raw water from the well.

But since the space came into being, Lin Jiuyue has never drunk raw water from outside again.

"No problem, I won't pick."

After listening to this, Lai Fu smiled.

"Miss, I'm glad you don't mind. Just wait until Xiyue and the others come out. The tea Xiyue makes is much better than the one I make."

Lin Jiuyue looked into the yard.

"Are you the only one at home? Where's Laicai? Why can't I see Laicai?"

"Miss, Laicai has gone out to do some work. He will probably be back soon."

Xiyue's family of three were arrested, and Lin Jiuyue was not at home, so the only ones who could run errands were Lai Fu and Lai Cai.

Although the village chief would also help, he also has their family. What's more, the village chief is just an ordinary person and cannot afford to offend those people.

Not long after Lin Jiuyue sat down, there was a knock on the door.

"Laifu, go open the door and see if it's the village chief coming."

When Lai Fu opened the gate, it turned out to be the village chief.

"Jiuyue, I heard that you were back, so I rushed over here."

"Uncle, let's sit down and talk."

As soon as the village chief sat down, Lai Fu brought him tea, then stepped aside very tactfully.

"Uncle, you know I always say what I mean. I won't beat around the bush."

"I came back this time just for something at home. The letter I brought back from home only gave me a general idea. I don't know the details yet. Can you tell me more about it?"

After listening to this, the village chief sighed.

"Hey, Jiuyue girl, uncle guessed that we made money from growing rapeseed and were targeted by others. Those people took Xiyue and the others away, probably to target you, or to get a piece of the rapeseed pie."

The village chief and Lin Jiuyue planted rapeseed together and sold it for a lot of money. In addition, the two families visited each other frequently and had a good relationship. The village chief was also really worried about Lin Jiuyue.

"Uncle, let's not talk about this for now. Tell me, how did Xiyue and the others get arrested? They must have a reason for arresting people, right?"

After hearing this, the village chief frowned.

"This, this uncle is not very clear either."

"All I know is that on the day Xiyue and the others were arrested, they delivered the rapeseed moss they had picked the day before to several restaurants as usual, and sold the excess in the town for a while."

"Just when they were finishing their sale and packing up, two big men suddenly showed up. They said someone had died after eating the rapeseed sprouts Xiyue and the others were selling."

"After a while, the government officials came and took Xiyue and the others away. But I wasn't there at the time, so I don't know the details."

While listening to the village chief's words, Lin Jiuyue tapped the table lightly with her fingers.

"Uncle, when you got the news, Xiyue and the others had already been taken away?"

The village chief nodded.

"Isn't it? When I rushed over, I only saw the backpack that had been trampled to pieces, and I didn't even see the shadows of Xiyue and the others."

Hearing this, Lin Jiuyue frowned unconsciously.

"What happened next? Did you see Xiyue and the others later?"

The village chief shook his head.

"No, when my uncle heard about it, he immediately went to the government office, but the people in the government office said that someone had died from the rapeseed sprouts Xiyue and her friends were selling, and it was a serious murder case, so they refused to let me see her."

"Jiuyue girl, it's because I'm incompetent that I can't even help you with this little bit. I have to ask you to make this special trip."

Lin Jiuyue didn't care much about the fact that the village chief couldn't help.

After all, the village chief is just an ordinary person.

It was obvious that Xiyue and the others were being targeted when they were arrested. Moreover, he had received news that the people who arrested Xiyue were related to the Li family.

Although the eldest young master of the Li family was Xiyue's former master, Lin Jiuyue had met the eldest young master of the Li family before.

Although the eldest master of the Li family was a bit cowardly in the matter of Xiyue being sold, he would not use such a thing to control Xiyue and her family.

"Uncle, something like this happened. Even if you want to help, you can't."

The other party is from the Li family, and they don't even take a small figure like the village chief seriously.

Not to mention the village chief, even the county magistrate had to give the Li family some face, otherwise why did they dare to arrest Xiyue's family? But Lai Fu and Lai Cai were fine?

After hearing this, the village chief still felt a little guilty.

"Jiu Yue girl, when you left, you told your uncle to take good care of you. It's just that your uncle is incompetent and can't help you at all, alas."

Lin Jiuyue smiled.

"Uncle, it's okay. Now that I'm back, I will definitely find a way to get Xiyue and the others out. Don't worry."

The village chief glanced at Lin Jiuyue in surprise.

"September girl, do you really have a way to get them out?"

You know, as a village chief, I often go in and out of the government office. Although I am not very close to the people in the government office, I am familiar with them. I want to go to the prison to see Xiyue and others and ask them what happened, but I can't see them. This girl actually said that there is a way to get them out?
