Can't afford to mess with the fast-traveling boss

Leaving from Chunniang's place, He Gu and Shao Jing both frowned, looking worried.The passers-by greeted He Gu, but He Gu ignored him, and Shao Jing nodded on his behalf.

The people in the town are all simple and honest people, so they wouldn't be angry at being ignored by He Gu.Everyone also knows that He Gu has been busy with the theft case recently, and he is probably worried about the case.

Everyone was very considerate and did not disturb him.

Shao Jing was not ashamed to disturb He Gu, and walked beside He Gu with folded arms, when he heard someone talking on the side of the road.

"Have you heard? The marriage between Zhang Yuan's family and He's family is likely to be yellow!"

"Where did you hear that? Don't talk nonsense!"

"Hey! How can I be talking nonsense? It's been rumored outside that the He family has lost an important dowry because of Zhang Yuan's family, and the He family is going to regret the marriage!"

"Really? Just because the dowry was lost? This He family is too worthless!"

"Who said it wasn't! But I heard that the He family is willing to marry the Zhang family. It's not because they fell in love with Miss Zhang's family, but because of Miss Zhang's dowry!"

"What kind of dowry can make the He family not hesitate to marry the Zhang family?"

The speaker looked at the frown and lowered his voice a little: "I heard that Zhang Yuanwai gave his daughter a dowry with an extremely rare East China Sea night pearl! The He family, it is for this night pearl!"

"Oh! So rare?"

"No!"

"Then what do you mean to say that the East China Sea Night Pearl that the Zhang family planned to take to the He family has disappeared, so that's why the He family regretted the marriage?"

"Why not?"

……

Shao Jing's face changed slightly, and he turned to look at He Gu beside him, and found that he had also finished his contemplation, and was listening to the conversation over there with a serious face.When Shao Jing looked over, he happened to meet He Gu's eyes.

Shao Jing was stunned for a moment, and asked, "You heard that too?"

He Gu nodded, without saying anything, grabbed Shao Jing's wrist, and led them away from the downtown area.

Shao Jing watched He Gu return to the yamen with a bewildered expression, He Gu then let go of his hand, looked back at Shao Jing with a serious face and said, "There are so many people just now, some words are hard to say."

"Oh." Shao Jing nodded in confusion, waiting for He Gu's next words.

"I've been thinking about it before, why did the thieves steal Zhang's Donghai Night Pearl? At first I thought it was because that night pearl was so precious. But just now I suddenly realized that maybe I've been wrong all this time."

Shao Jing looked at He Gu suspiciously.

"Perhaps the thief chose to steal that East China Sea luminous pearl not just because that luminous pearl is rare and precious."

After a little thought, Shao Jing understood the meaning of He Gu's words, and continued: "You mean, the other party actually wants to destroy the marriage between the Zhang family and the He family?"

"Not bad!"

"If the He family really married the Zhang family because of the East China Sea night pearl, then if the night pearl was stolen, the He family would have no reason to continue marrying the Zhang family, wouldn't it?"

"But why did the other party stop this marriage? Who will be a threat to the marriage between the Zhang family and the He family?" Shao Jing looked at He Gu in confusion.

He is not from this town, and he is not very clear about the right and wrong in this town. Naturally, he doesn't know who would not want the Zhang family to marry the He family.He could only look at He Gu for help. As a person who grew up in this town, He Gu must know these things better.

However, He Gu is also at a loss. The Zhang family has always been kind to others in the town, and has never had any enmity with anyone.It is really rare for people to think of using this method to destroy a marriage.

He Gu thought about all the people in the town who had grievances with the Zhang family, but failed to find a suitable suspect.

He could only shake his head and said, "The Zhang family has no enemies in this town."

The two fell into the mist again.

After a while, Shao Jing's eyes lit up, he looked at He Gu and said, "Brother He, maybe we should change our thinking!"

"Oh?" He Gu raised his eyebrows and looked at Shao Jing.

Shao Jingdao: "Why do the people who steal must have enmity with the Zhang family or the He family? Couldn't it be because of Miss Zhang?"

"Miss Zhang?" He Gu frowned, with doubts on his face.

"Maybe there are people who don't want Ms. Zhang to marry into the He family?" Shao Jing looked at He Gu and said, "If the He family really married Ms. Zhang for that East China Sea night pearl, would someone find out and replace Zhang? The lady thinks it's not worth it, so she came up with such a way to prevent the two families from getting married?"

He Gu frowned and thought for a long time before saying, "It's not impossible. It's just that I'm more inclined. The other party may be someone who likes Ms. Zhang, and I don't want Ms. Zhang to marry someone else."

"It's not impossible, why don't we start investigating from this aspect?" Shao Jing suggested.

"You're right, let's go." After He Gu finished speaking, he took the lead and walked outside.

Shao Jing froze for a moment and asked, "Where are you going?"

"Investigate the case!"

"..."

As soon as the two of them came back from the outside, they turned around and ran out again.

……

Ms. Zhang's situation is easy to check.Ms. Zhang's boudoir name is Yu Yan, she is a talented woman who is proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and her reputation spreads far and wide in the town.But her other name is better known than her talent name.

- Ugly aunt.

Zhang Yuyan's talent spread far and wide, but she was not beautiful enough. Because she had a birthmark the size of a baby's fist on her face, she didn't dare to go out to meet people since she was a child.Whenever you go out, you must cover your face with a veil.

At the beginning, everyone thought that Zhang Yuyan was born too presumptuously, so she covered her face.But then one day an accident happened, Zhang Yuyan's veil accidentally fell off, revealing her true face in front of everyone.

Since then, people began to call her an ugly girl.

Zhang Yuyan also didn't want to go out after that.

It is precisely because of this that although this Miss Zhang is very talented, no one has come to ask for marriage so far.

This time the He family suddenly came to ask for marriage, many people were guessing that the He family might have taken a fancy to the Zhang family's property.Zhang Yuanwai has a daughter like Zhang Yuyan, so the dowry will definitely not be small.

Now that such rumors are spread, it is even more confirmed that the purpose of the He family's doing this is for the treasure of the Zhang family.

However, no one expected that the rumor would become true later.The He family really withdrew their marriage with the Zhang family, so Zhang Yuanwai approached the He family several times, but this time he always left the He family with an angry face.

This kind of development finally confirmed the ugly face of the He family.

If you really think about it, Zhang Yuyan, who was divorced by the He family, is the worst. Many people are guessing, will Miss Zhang rent out some stupid things when she can't think about it for a while?

In fact?

Not only was Zhang Yuyan not overwhelmed, she even breathed a sigh of relief.

This marriage was originally agreed between her father and the members of the He family, but she herself did not like the son of the He family.Although he has never met the other party, he has also heard a lot about Mr. He from outsiders.

This Mr. He already has a concubine in his family. Even though she married as the main wife, she always shares a man with other women.

Although Zhang Yuyan was born unattractive, she also longed to find someone who would treat her wholeheartedly.Even if she really can't find it, she still hopes that her husband is a good match, not a playboy like Mr. He who likes to ask for flowers.

Seeing that the wedding is approaching, Zhang Yuyan is getting more and more melancholy every day, thinking every day, how can I cancel this marriage?But he didn't want God to really hear her prayer.

Although it was the He family's divorce, it was nothing to Zhang Yuyan.It's nothing to lose some face. Over the years, she has already lost all face, so she doesn't care this time.As long as she doesn't need to continue marrying into the He family, this small disturbance is nothing.

"Miss, do you know what people are saying about you now? They say that if the master is not rich, the lady will not be able to marry at all! Why are these people so bad-mouthed?" Zhang Yuyan's personal girl, He Xiang, came in from the outside and complained angrily. .

Zhang Yuyan paused when she wiped her face, her eyes showed frustration, then she smiled softly, turned her head and reprimanded lightly: "He Xiang, what are you talking about? They say let them talk, and it doesn't matter why."

"Why don't you get in the way? Miss! Why aren't you angry? They always tarnish your reputation like this, how will you marry in the future? Let me tell you, if it wasn't for the fact that they always like to gossip, why have you... "He Xiang said, she suddenly fell silent, her eyes filled with distress and anger.

Miss is obviously such a good person, how could these people have the heart to seriously hurt Miss like this behind her back?It's so irritating!

Zhang Yuyan shook her head helplessly, walked over and squeezed the lotus-scented and chubby smiling face, and sighed, "Okay, I'm still not angry yet, why are you so angry?"

"Miss!" He Xiang stomped her feet, "I'm not angry for you!"

"Okay, okay, I know He Xiang loves Miss, so don't be angry, let's eat a cake, huh?" Zhang Yuyan took out a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake from the plate and brought it to He Xiang's mouth.

He Xiang pouted, looking angry and having nowhere to vent her anger. Seeing her young lady smiling, she could only angrily bite the pastry delivered to her mouth.Bite by bite extremely hard, as if biting those who gossip behind their backs.

Zhang Yuyan looked amused and shook her head helplessly.

"Okay, don't be angry. They can talk as they like, and it has nothing to do with me. I didn't want to marry the He family, or any family in the town, just to be able to stay at home with my dad like this. Also excellent."

"Miss..." He Xiang stopped chewing, and looked at Zhang Yuyan with a face full of distress.

How can a woman not want to marry?Miss would say that, but because of the habit of being seriously injured by those remarks over the years.Even I feel that I am afraid that I will not be able to get married in this life.

But He Xiang couldn't figure it out, is appearance really so important?Are men in the world really so superficial?

He Xiang looked at the birthmark on Zhang Yuyan's face, and never thought that birthmark was ugly.

Miss Mingming...

It's so beautiful...
