Chapter 293 Leaving again?
Chapter 293 Leaving again?
"Open the door of the woodshed." Late at night, He Yuanyuan happily asked the maid at the door of the woodshed to open the door.
"Madam, these two have been silent since noon... They must have starved to death..." The old woman said this with some fear.
"You haven't eaten for just one day and one night, and you're starving to death?" Huanxi asked back.
After entering, the two of them curled up together and fell asleep. It was only when He Yuanyuan went up and kicked each of them that they woke up.
Huanxi moved a chair and sat aside, staring at Man Yue sinisterly, and asked with a smile:
"How is it? It's not pleasant to be hungry, right?"
Daha twisted his body and knelt down, crying and repenting. Man Yue also knelt down and followed Daha's example.
"Da He, I can let this matter go, but you have to tell me everything about Man Yue... Since you two live in the same room, you should know something, right?"
When he heard that he would not be held responsible, Dahe began to rack his brains to recall Man Yue's abnormality.
"Madam... I'm telling you, I didn't want to do this at first. Madam, you treat us servants very well. I only became obsessed with it after listening to Man Yue's orders..."
Huanxi had a blank expression on her face as she waited for Daha's next words.
"At first, Brother Sandong took us to the town. Once we got familiar with each other, he let us come alone. After we got to know each other, we were also very dedicated and responsible. We thought that we couldn't let such a good master down. It was Man Yue. One time, Man Yue went to the town and disappeared alone for over an hour. When he came back that night, he was not right. He started to persuade me to work with him..."
Huanxi raised her hand and said indifferently, "Do you still remember when he disappeared?"
"I remember the day I went to buy silk flowers for Kexin. That day was..."
"Shut up!" Man Yue suddenly interrupted the torrent of words from Da He. It was obvious that he had broken into the house.
However, what Dahe said has already contained enough information, so it doesn’t really matter which day it was.
She ordered people to drag Dahe out, and suddenly Man Yue was the only one left in the room, with Huanxi and He Yuanyuan at the top.
"Was he bribed that day? By whom? It couldn't be Xiang Manlou..." Huanxi said casually.
He Yuanyuan kept squinting her eyes and looking at the full moon on the ground.
"I...I didn't...it wasn't Xiangmanlou, it was...it was Zhenxiu Pavilion!"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, how much silver did I give you? Would you rather throw dirty water on Zhenxiu Pavilion than admit that it was Xiangmanlou? It's a pity, I'm not interested. There is only one way for those who betray me."
He Yuanyuan, who was standing by, was also a little shocked by the pressure exuded by Huanxi. This sister is not usually a harsh person, but why does she seem like a different person when talking about this issue?
Man Yue thought that her fate would be at most a beating and selling, until she was brought in front of Brother Tai and then she really wet her pants.
Clap your hands happily, and Taige and the others will have a full meal.
Don't blame her for being cruel. Those who betray her will not have a good ending.
The world is like this, and she can't be blamed.
Xu Qingzhao returned two days later, exhausted, and brought back several women of different ages.
"Who are these?"
Xu Qingzhao introduced that this was the person her mother left for her, and they came from various places to look for her after receiving the news during this period.
Among them, there is one who is a doctor named Mo Yin, one who is good at martial arts named Mo Wang, one who uses poison named Mo Chou, and one who is actually good at mechanical engineering named Mo Chi.
These people have all received great favors from Xu Xingwan, and they are also Xu Xingwan's sworn sisters.
It was from them that I learned that Xu Xingwan's name was Mo An.
There is no peace, no tranquility.
She had never had any peace in her life...
The four people will be arranged to live in the empty house of Shuxiangju first, and what specific tasks they will do still needs to be arranged.
"Where have you been these days?" Huanxi asked her after the people left.
After not seeing her for a few days, she had lost a lot of weight. It was obvious that she had been busy and had little rest.
"I went to Shang'an Mansion and solved a big problem for you along the way."
Huanxi washed a clean handkerchief and wiped her. Xu Qingzhao took the handkerchief, wiped her twice casually, and then began to review her.
"I went to Shang'an Mansion to pick someone up, and guess what? I happened to run into the owner of Xiangmanlou, who was assigned to Rongshan Town..."
Huanxi: "And then?"
Xu Qingzhao: "It's just a matter of convenience."
"In this case, Xiang Man Lou will probably have to wait for some time before making a comeback in Rongshan Town."
"Huanhuan... I've heard news from the capital... I'm afraid... I have to go back..."
Huanxi was still immersed in the joy of Xiangmanlou's bankruptcy, and it took her a while to react when she heard this.
"Back where? Back to the capital? But you haven't even been back for a month!"
Xu Qingzhao lowered her head. She didn't want to go back either. But Zi Dieyi had sent word that someone wanted to attack Princess Ronghua, but they hadn't found out who it was yet.
Huanxi stood up, so she went out to bring back some useful people to protect the family?
Even if there is any danger at home, she still has Brother Tai and Xiaoqing, and if all else fails, she still has Mingyuan, the ultimate killer.
Why should she worry so much?
"No, I want to go with you." She made up her mind. Now that the family business is on the right track and with a few big guys in charge, ordinary minions can't do anything to Shuxiangju.
"Huanhuan, don't be silly. The situation in the capital is unpredictable. I can barely protect myself alone, so why should I drag you into this mess?"
"Then let's take the brothers and sisters and go there overnight, okay?" Her almost pleading tone successfully made Xu Qingzhao lose his temper, and he had to nod and agree to her.
Finally, we decided to set off five days later. During these five days, my joy never stopped for a single day. I wanted to put all the things in the house into the space.
The system has accumulated about 500 gold coins in the past few days, which means her grandmother has completed ten tasks.
It takes 500 gold coins to upgrade the space again. Huanxi chose to expand the space between repairing the letters and expanding the space.
After the expansion, it expanded from one meter by one meter to five meters by five meters.
While she was packing Xu Qingzhao's luggage, something happened in the village.
Lu Hongguo got married.
Because the incident was known to everyone at the time, the Lu family discussed with the butcher's family in the town and set the wedding date at the end of May.
That was the day before Xu Qingzhao was leaving.
Huanxi will not attend this wedding. Isn't that asking for trouble?
I heard from the villagers that Lu Hongguo didn't say a word when she got married, as if she was getting married to an unrelated person. When the sedan chair was carried away, she left without even calling her parents...
I am filled with joy and sighs.
Who could she blame for this? All she could do was not force all her children to marry someone they didn't want to marry, that was all.
Other people's homes...she has no business.
