Chapter 37

The next morning, Qin Yue set off with her bag and carrying a BMW.

She walked slowly along the street, and when she passed a small stall selling fruits, her eyes were instantly fixed.

What attracted her attention was not the dazzling array of fruits on the shelves, but the little girl sitting next to her, a grasshopper that was woven in her hand!

This grasshopper is made of green grass leaves. At first glance, it appears vivid and lifelike.

Qin Yue couldn't help but take a few steps closer and asked, "Little sister, can I see this treasure in your hand?"

The little girl was not afraid of being alive and was happy to hand her the grasshopper in her hand.

When she took the grasshopper, Qin Yue's hand was trembling slightly. She stared at the grasshopper, but her thoughts unknowingly flew back to her childhood.

At that time, she was only seven or eight years old, about the same age as the little girl in front of her.

"Mom, teach me how to weave grasshoppers!"

"Grasshopper weaving?" the mother asked in confusion, "Why did you suddenly want to learn this?"

"The aunt's second girl can weave, and I want to learn it too!"

"Okay, my mother teaches you. You have to pick some green grass leaves first, and then..."

Two days later, she became skillful in the technique she taught. She carefully knitted a grasshopper and showed it to her mother: "Mom, do you look like it? Are you beautiful?"

"It's so beautiful! Especially if you have an extra wing, it looks better than what your mother does!" said the mother applaudingly, "My baby daughter is smart and skillful, and she can learn it once she learns it!"

...

Qin Yue tossed and turned the grasshoppers that the little girl woven over and over again. The technique was exactly the same as what her mother taught her back then!

"Little sister, who taught you how to make it up?" she asked anxiously.

"It was taught by an uncle!"

"Where is he? Can you take me to find him?"

The little girl was very happy to take Qin Yue to find the uncle, but in the end, she brought Qin Yue back to Yingbin Inn!

"Does that uncle live here?" Qin Yue asked suspiciously.

"Yes! It's the one running around with a towel on her shoulder!"

Qin Yue was stunned at first sight: Isn’t this the waiter in the inn?

She walked into the store, and the waiter came forward diligently as soon as he saw it: "Young Master Qin, have you not returned yet?"

"I'm here to come back to find you!" Qin Yue raised the grasshopper in her hand and asked, "How can you make up this?"

"You can make up! This is a kid who plays with you, why is Mr. Qin interested?"

"Who taught you how to weave?"

"No one taught me, I've developed it myself!"

In order to relieve Qin Yue's doubts, the waiter turned around and went to the counter and took out another grass grasshopper from the drawer. But the grass leaves had withered because it had been stored for a long time.

"I just learned it when it looks!" said the waiter proudly.

"Then where does this grasshopper come from?"

"Picked it up! Just park the carriage outside!"

After the waiter finished speaking, he took Qin Yue to the open space outside and recalled that one morning he passed by this place and saw a grasshopper on the ground. It looked like it was real, so he picked it up and took it back to the store.

Qin Yue couldn't help but be surprised and happy after hearing this.

She imagined the scene at that time: her mother was carried to this place by a carriage. In order to leave clues for those who were looking for her, she threw a grass grasshopper that had been woven in advance out of the window while the person was not paying attention. The next morning, the grass grasshopper was picked up by the waiter...

She firmly believed that her mother had been here, and this grass grasshopper was a witness!

At that moment, she suddenly made a decision: not to go back!

Back in Ganzhou, I had a beautiful love and a noble lady’s life at my fingertips, but I had to watch my father die;

Staying in Yuezhou, there is at least a glimmer of hope to find my mother and save my father.

So, she chose the latter without hesitation.

...

When Qin Yue met her uncle and master, they were standing at the gate of the inn and waiting for her for a long time.

When he heard that Qin Yue decided not to go back, his uncle was surprised and said, "Even if you don't miss your father, at least you have to think about your future! Mr. Xie is tall, handsome, gentle, and knowledgeable. You can't find such a man with a lantern! If you miss him, you will regret it for your life!"

Qin Yue said firmly: "If I can find my mother, it is more important than anything else!"

Seeing that she was so stubborn, my uncle couldn't help but sigh and shook his head.

"Since you insist on staying in Yuezhou, then stay. If you find your mother, remember to tell me as soon as possible, I can send someone to pick you up!"

Qin Yue was secretly moved and hurriedly agreed.

She thought: After all, she is her own uncle, and her blood is thicker than water!

After the uncle finished speaking, he climbed onto the carriage. However, the master did not rush to leave, but asked Qin Yue quietly: "Do you like Mr. Xie?"

Qin Yue blushed in an instant: "This..."

"It seems that you really like him. Do you want your master to help you?"

Qin Yue said shyly: "Master wants to help, of course my disciple can't ask for it!"

"Okay, after the master goes back, he will go to Xie Mansion to secretly get him out and let him come to Yuezhou to meet you!"

"Master, is this OK?"

"You can't believe Master's martial arts? Don't worry, I won't hurt anyone in Xie's mansion!"

Qin Yue smiled.

"You can wait here with peace of mind. He will come to you in less than a month!"

Hearing this sentence, Qin Yue was immediately filled with anticipation.

Even my uncle said that he was tall, handsome, gentle, and knowledgeable. How could she not expect it?

"There is something I wanted to tell you after I returned to Ganzhou. But if you don't go back, I'll tell you now!"

Seeing that he had a serious expression, Qin Yue hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?"

"I went to Jianchang Prefecture and found the 15th capital 3 Society of Nancheng County. I asked each other from door to door. But I found that there were four families there, and there were family members working in Ganzhou!"

"So, which letter was written to?"

"I couldn't confirm it, so each family gave twenty taels of silver, enough for them to deal with it for a while!"

Qin Yue gave him a thumbs up and praised him: "You are really my good master!"

"While I was inquiring, I accidentally learned about a situation. Among the four families, there was a family named Chen, and only an old couple lived with their grandson at home. They told me that my daughter-in-law set out from Jianchang Mansion two months ago and went to Ganzhou to find their son! The date of her departure was very close to the time when the female corpse in the lake was killed!"

"You are suspicious that she may..."

She didn't dare to continue to say what happened later.

"It's indeed doubtful! If the female corpse in the lake is not your mother, it's very likely that it was her! She was killed before finding her husband, and the families on both sides were unaware of it, so no one reported the case!"

"Then where does her husband work?" Qin Yue asked anxiously.

"The old man can't say it either. I just remember that there seems to be a word 'source'! After I came back, I checked it for many days, but I didn't find this person!"

"Then please ask your master to continue pursuing it! As long as you prove that there is someone else in the female corpse in the lake, my father's grievances will be washed away!"

Jiang Jianhan nodded and agreed.

"Master, I have one more thing to do, please help me!" Qin Yue said, "The disciple stays here to find his mother. If he doesn't have time to rush back to save his father, please ask the master to save his life!"

"Do you want me to rob the Dharma field?"

"With Master's martial arts, it's no problem to save my father!"

"Your father is very respectful to his teacher. I am not afraid of death, but my life was saved by your uncle, and I have to use his permission to do anything."

Qin Yue said confidently: "I believe my uncle will not object!"

"Then I will do my best!"
