A peasant girl traveled through time and space, and she became prosperous

Cheng Lu looked at Wen Meijiu suspiciously. Although he felt that what she said made sense, she was determined to exchange Dou Xiaoshu for Dou Dashu. Cheng Lu still would not agree to let Wen Meijiu take Dou Xiaoshu away.

Wen Meijiu guessed what he was thinking and said quickly:

"Brother Cheng, I'm not an outsider, don't you also want to rescue my brother?

Don't worry, you have a perfect trap here. Even if I want to take Dou Xiaoshu away to exchange for my brother, I have to have the ability to do it!"

"That's true."

Wen Meijiu finally admitted that his mechanism was a "dragnet". Although she did not say it directly, it was an indirect admission, and Cheng Lu felt very relieved.

Anyway, she is a woman, and like she said, even if she wants to take Dou Xiaoshu away, she has to have the ability to do so!

At this moment, Cheng Lu was not calm in his heart. He did hear what Wen Meijiu had just said.

The county magistrate had lost so much grain. Even if he found most of it, he couldn't let the county magistrate let him go easily. He had to think about this matter carefully.

Disliked that Wen Meijiu was making noise beside him and affecting his thinking, Cheng Lu didn't mind asking her to find something to do. Maybe she could get something out of him, which would be an unexpected gain.

"Okay, let's do as you say and bring Dou Xiaoshu out for questioning.

Let me be frank with you, you will be responsible for the interrogation."

Interrogating prisoners is certainly not Cheng Lu’s strong point, and he doesn’t have the leisure to do so.

"Okay, then I'll take the trouble and take this matter on your behalf, big brother."

Wen Meijiu spoke reluctantly, but agreed quickly.

So, the battle formation was deployed in an open area. Wen Meijiu sat on a big rock, Cheng Lu sat beside him and listened, and a few soldiers stood behind them holding torches to provide illumination.

Xiaoshu, who was tied up, was pushed out from his hiding place, cursing.

"You dogs, you lackeys who work for them, you shall not die a good death."

He is young and hot-tempered, and he is a gossiper.

The soldier following behind heard it and kicked him on the butt. He then ran forward a few steps and fell not far from Wen Meijiu's feet.

When he fell, he vaguely saw two figures sitting upright. Xiaoshu thought he had seen the real people, and even though he fell, he still cursed:

"Dog officer."

Seeing that he refused to repent, the soldier who followed him came up and kicked him twice on the back, pressing his big feet on his head, and shouted at him:

"This is our Cheng Tuanlian and Miss Zhang, please be careful with your mouth.

Just answer whatever I ask you and avoid physical pain."

Someone stepped on his mouth so much that it stuck to the ground and was full of dirt. Xiaoshu wanted to continue cursing, but he couldn't open his mouth.

He waited for the soldier to drag him up from behind before he had time to catch his breath, and then he started to curse again:

"Bah, you two are a pair of bastards. I can see that you are not good people. I won't tell you anything no matter what you ask."

He spat fiercely on the ground beside him and took a few deep breaths.

Cheng Lu sat next to him, feeling very relaxed, and smiled as he looked at the stubborn Dou Xiaoshu.

He knew that Dou Xiaoshu was not easy to deal with. His brother must be very capable to be the leader of the bandits. As the younger brother of the bandit leader, he must have some of his brother's bravery.

If the bandits were so easy to deal with, the county magistrate would have gone up the mountain to suppress them long ago, and would not have allowed the bandits to become so rampant.

Wen Meijiu was young and inexperienced, and naively thought she could do anything. Cheng Lu was too lazy to refute her, so as to prevent her from realizing that he had bad intentions.

He had already made up his mind to kill Zhang Can, so coaxing the man's sister and making her feel a little better was the last bit of kindness he could show to Zhang Can.

Wen Meijiu didn't know Dou Xiaoshu very well, and she and Dou Dashu had only met once.

She didn't expect that Dou Xiaoshu was so strong-willed. He didn't cry or yell even when he fell into the hands of the enemy. While applauding Dou Xiaoshu in her heart, Wen Meijiu was also worried. If Dou Xiaoshu saw that it was her sitting here the next second, would he be exposed because of his overly straightforward character?

After thinking about it, Wen Meijiu felt that it would be better to take the initiative.

She stood up suddenly, and before Xiaoshu could turn around and see her clearly, Wen Meijiu quickly slapped Xiaoshu hard on the cheek.

"Who are you scolding? Show me another scolding."

After being hit in the face unexpectedly, Xiaoshu's first reaction was to look back to see who hit him. He must remember him well so that he could take revenge on him in the future.

In a blink of an eye, Dou Xiaoshu saw the familiar face of Wen Meijiu, and he was stunned for a moment.

Why is she here? His brother is missing. Could it be that she betrayed his brother?

If that's true, then this woman is so evil!

Which side is she on? Why does she help them while harming his brother?

Looking up, Dou Xiaoshu saw Cheng Lu sitting on a rock not far away. He wanted to expose this woman immediately and asked Cheng Lu to pack up the warm wine for him.

"Cheng Tuanlian, this woman took your..."

Before he could finish his words, Wen Meijiu realized something was wrong and the next second he had to take out the dagger and put it on Dou Xiaoshu's neck.

"If you don't tell the truth, I will cut off your tongue immediately, believe it or not?"

The dagger in Wen Meijiu's hand flashed with cold light, which made Dou Xiaoshu speechless for a moment, and he could only stare at her with hatred.

Dou Xiaoshu was halfway through his words, which aroused Cheng Lu's curiosity. What exactly did he want to say?

Suddenly he stood up and walked over from behind Wen Meijiu. Cheng Lu stretched out his hand to push Wen Meijiu aside, patted Dou Xiaoshu on the shoulder, and coaxed him:

"Don't be afraid, little brother. We won't hurt you."

After saying that, he turned around with a fake smile, looked at Wen Meijiu standing next to him, and asked Xiaoshu:

"Have you seen our Miss Zhang somewhere before?"

"Miss Zhang?"

Dou Xiaoshu was a little bit unbelievable, his brows knitted together, looking at Wen Meijiu for a long time without saying anything else.

Dou Xiaoshu only knew that Wen Meijiu's surname was Wen. This was what Dou Dashu told him in person. It was only half an hour, so how could she have changed her surname?

Look at the woman standing in front of him. She is dressed exactly like Wen Meijiu, and even her manner of speaking is exactly the same!

At this moment, Wen Meijiu's scalp was tingling. He stared coldly at Dou Xiaoshu in front of him with squinted eyes, fearing that he would really say something that shouldn't be said.

The reason why Cheng Lu asked him this was obviously because Dou Xiaoshu's previous words made him suspicious.

"Yes, Miss Zhang, do you have any impression?"

Cheng Lu moved closer to Dou Xiaoshu, almost touching his face, which put Dou Xiaoshu under great psychological pressure.

Wen Meijiu could even hear Dou Xiaoshu's breathing becoming rapid. The fact that Dou Xiaoshu ran back to find Dou Dashu because of Zhang Can's two words was enough to prove that he had an impulsive character.
