149 Li Qiang Is Here To Ask For People
The couple looked at each other, then quickly put on their clothes and ran out.
At this moment, the rain at the foot of the mountain was slightly lighter, but they still had to wear a raincoat and a bamboo hat when they went out.
Luo Ziyang was already dressed. When he saw Li Shun and Zhao Xiu running out, he reminded them.
“Uncle, Aunt, go do your own things! Leave the matters outside to me!”
Li Shun and Zhao Xiu looked at each other and finally nodded. Then, they went to the kitchen to get busy.
Luo Ziyang put on a raincoat and a bamboo hat before opening the courtyard door and walking out.
At the same time, Big Yellow ran out with a group of dog brothers and followed Luo Ziyang out of the door.
At this moment, a group of people was standing outside. The person in the lead was Li Yan’s father, Li Qiang.
In addition, other men from the village had come here with them.
“Who are you guys?” Luo Ziyang asked, looking at the group in front of him.
Actually, he knew all these people, but Luo Ziyang pretended not to know them.
Li Qiang was stunned when he saw that it was someone he didn’t know.
“Isn’t this Luo Cheng’s house?”
Luo Ziyang looked at Li Qiang and nodded. “That’s right. This is indeed Luo Cheng’s home!”
“Then who are you? Call Luo Cheng out and ask him to hand over my daughter, Li Yan!” Li Qiang remembered why he was here, so he asked.
“There’s no need to call him out. I can handle it! If you want to find your daughter, go elsewhere. We don’t have anyone here!” Luo Ziyang said coldly.
“Just because you say there’s no one doesn’t mean there’s no one. Let us go in and search! My girl must have been kidnapped by Luo Cheng! Previously, your brother wanted to marry my daughter by force. Now that my daughter is missing, it’s definitely Luo Cheng’s doing!” Li Qiang shouted loudly to intimidate Luo Ziyang.
When Luo Ziyang heard this, he immediately chuckled.
Luo Ziyang knew very well where Li Yan had gone.
Because Luo Ziyang had been sending people to keep an eye on Li Yan recently, he naturally knew that Li Yan and Pei Xuanxin had gone to the mountain together.
The reason they didn’t return now was probably because they were trapped on the mountain!
“Why don’t you think about it? Can’t your daughter have followed someone else? Why don’t you go to the village and ask? You might be able to find clues about your daughter!” Luo Ziyang looked at Li Qiang and said.
“What do you mean?” Li Qiang was stunned. He didn’t expect Luo Ziyang to say that.
“I mean, maybe your daughter doesn’t want to stay in your family anymore, so she ran away with someone else! I think you’re not here to look for her at all. You’re here to extort money! Who doesn’t know that your family is poor and about to run out of money? That’s why you came to my brother to extort some money, right?” Luo Ziyang retorted.
“Do you really think your daughter is a fairy that my brother will never forget?! To be honest, your daughter can’t even compare to his current wife at all! Don’t flatter yourself!” Luo Ziyang said bluntly.
Li Qiang was furious when he heard this.
“That’s impossible. My daughter won’t follow just anyone. Luo Cheng must have taken her away. Hurry up and hand her over! If you don’t hand her over, we’ll break in and find her!”
When Luo Ziyang heard this, he immediately sneered.
“Let’s see who dares! With me, Luo Ziyang, here today, if anyone dares to step into my house, I’ll make you suffer!”
With that, Luo Ziyang took out his sword and stood in the middle of the door.
Seeing that Luo Ziyang was holding a weapon, Li Qiang immediately cowered.
Luo Cheng was skilled in martial arts. This person was his brother and might also be a martial artist.
“Li Qiang, I don’t think Li Yan is in the Luo family’s home either. Let’s go look elsewhere!” A man from the village walked out and persuaded.
“That’s right. Li Qiang, I don’t think Luo Cheng kidnapped Li Yan. Let’s go somewhere else to look for her!” Another sensible man persuaded.
At that moment, a little boy ran over from afar.
Seeing that the group had really run to the Luo family’s house, the little boy shouted into the rain.
“We saw Li Yan carrying a basket and going up the mountain with a man called Pei Xuanxin yesterday! We heard the two people say that they were going up the mountain to dig herbs!”
Everyone froze at those words.
If she had really gone up the mountain, then after the heavy rain yesterday, Li Yan must have been trapped on the mountain.
When Li Qiang heard this, he quickly left with his men.
When everyone was gone, Luo Ziyang looked at the little boy who had run over.
“Little Huzi, why did you run out alone? Come in and drink some hot water, or you’ll catch a cold!”
Little Huzi had met Luo Ziyang when he was washing the salted duck eggs, so he naturally didn’t stand on ceremony with him.
Soon, they were back in the house together.
On the other side, Li Xiaoqing had also gotten up. When she saw that Big Yellow and the others were drenched when they returned, she quickly went to get some large towels sewn together from rags to wipe the dogs.
After Luo Ziyang and Little Huzi took off their raincoats and bamboo hats, they also went to wipe the dogs.
Li Shun brought out a basin of ginger soup and shouted at Luo Ziyang and Little Huzi.
“Ziyang, Little Huzi, come over and drink some ginger soup. Don’t catch a cold!”
When Li Xiaoqing heard her father’s voice, she also said, “That’s right. Brother Ziyang, Little Huzi, hurry up and drink the ginger soup. Leave Big Yellow and the others to me!”
Luo Ziyang knew that Li Shun and the others had good intentions. He nodded and dried the dog in his arms before going to wash his hands.
Little Huzi also wiped the dog in his arms before washing his hands and drinking the ginger soup.
“What happened outside?” Li Shun asked as he scooped up the ginger soup.
Luo Ziyang didn’t hide anything and told him what had happened outside.
“He’s really muddle-headed. He should have known yesterday afternoon whether his daughter had come home or not. Why did he only come out to look for her now? What did he do earlier?!” Li Shun said angrily, “If he wants to look for her, so be it. He actually blamed my son-in-law. He’s too much!”
“Uncle Li, don’t worry! When my brother comes back and finds out about this, Li Qiang will regret it! My brother isn’t someone who can be bullied easily!” Luo Ziyang sneered.
“That’s right. Previously, when they came out to look for her, I told Li Yan’s mother that Li Yan had gone up the mountain with Pei Xuanxin to dig for herbs, but she didn’t believe me!” Little Huzi also said angrily, “We saw everything clearly. How could we lie to them?!”
