"..." After hearing this, everyone was a little confused. Mrs. Qin still wanted to let them drink broth when she was in a difficult time. She must be a good hostess.
"Also, no matter who or what you see in the foot shop, don't tell outsiders." After all, there are still Mu Ting and others hiding in the foot shop, so it will be a matter of time before they meet.
"Yes." Everyone said in unison.
Qin Xiangxiang was very satisfied.
After receiving everyone's loyalty guarantee, I thought it would be better to choose a different day, so tonight I would ask Mu Ting and others to show up and say hello to everyone.
Qin Xiangxiang called Hong Xiu over and asked her to go to the wine cellar to find Mu Ting.
She sat down and took a sip of water, which felt like a knife cutting her throat.
Hongxiu came back quickly, looking a little surprised.
She whispered in Qin Xiangxiang's ear: "Yang Dagui is the only one in the wine cellar."
Qin Xiangxiang's expression remained unchanged and he said to Hongxiu: "Let Mother Wang help Uncle Hai and Uncle Ma carry Yang Dagui out."
Uncle Hai is the old porter, and Uncle Ma is the gray-haired groom.
When everyone learned that Yang Dagui was lying in the foot shop, everyone looked a little weird. Especially Mrs. Wang, she was instantly afraid of Qin Xiang. That day she was still thinking of using Yang Dagui to frame Qin Xiangxiang with Wu Jiayi, but in the blink of an eye Yang Dagui disappeared, and it turned out that he was rescued by the eldest lady.
Mrs. Wang did not dare to say anything at all and helped Uncle Hai and Uncle Ma to carry Yang Dagui out.
Yang Dagui was still unconscious and didn't seem to be improving much.
Qin Xiangxiang asked Hongxiu to accommodate everyone.
Uncle Hai and Uncle Ma lived in the same room as Yang Dagui, Mrs. Wang and Si Ping lived in the same room, Hong Xiu and Tian Xiang lived together as usual, and Qin Xiangxiang lived in the largest, best and last room in the foot shop.
Although the foot shop is large, it looks a bit full after everyone has been accommodated.
After everyone settled down exhausted, the sound of banging could be heard from outside. It was already five o'clock in the morning.
Qin Xiangxiang was lying on her dowry bed, not feeling sleepy at all.
Mrs. Zhong still wanted to save face, so the bed she was given as dowry was a popular box-style bed, and the wood was of decent quality. The most important thing is that the bed is quite big, she can roll around on it.
Although it was very comfortable to lie down, it was really distressing to be unable to sleep.
Since he couldn't sleep anyway, it was better to think about where Mu Ting had gone.
At any rate, she took them in for a while, and even though she paid them, they were considered friends. Besides, he left before the Li Zhuang case was investigated?
Forget it, what's there to think about people who leave without saying hello? Qin Xiangxiang turned over again, stared at the bed board, and listened to the sound of rain outside, becoming more and more unable to sleep.
But people have saved me several times... I haven't even had time to thank them.
"Madam Qin, Madam Qin." Qin Xiangxiang stood up suddenly, put on his cloak, and opened the window. Who is it if it's not Mu Ting outside?
Mu Ting wore a bamboo hat, only showing his lean chin: "Ms. Qin, excuse me."
Qin Xiangxiang blurted out: "Are you leaving?"
Mu Ting leaned over slightly and said in a low voice: "No, I just came back from Wenchang Hou Mansion. When Yao Erlang saw you guys moving here, he was afraid of revealing his whereabouts, so he evacuated to a safe place first."
He had the moist smell of a spring night, but he was too masculine. The two were mixed together, giving him a special smell.
Qin Xiangxiang was not used to the smell, so he moved to the side and said, "Thank you, Mr. Mu Lang, for tonight."
Mu Ting was a little surprised: "How did you know it was me?" But he quickly said, "I originally wanted to secretly guide Mrs. Qin to the cell, but Mrs. Qin actually found her as if she was being guided." Familiar. He even had some doubts about her. At that moment, Qin Xiangxiang's decisive steps did not look like a helpless little lady.
Qin Xiangxiang smiled slightly and pointed to his nose: "To be honest with Mr. Mu, my nose is sometimes more sensitive. But it can only last for a short time."
At that moment, she smelled something vague and vague on Mu Ting's body. It has a very unique masculine smell.
There are many capable people in the world, and Mu Ting has seen many of them in the military camp. I didn't expect Qin Guanlan's daughter to have such abilities.
"I see." He nodded blankly.
Qin Xiangxiang said: "Then where are you staying now? Is it safe? I have already said hello to them. They should not tell anyone about you living here."
Mu Ting shook his head: "It's not that I don't trust Mrs. Qin, but I have found a more suitable hiding place, which makes it easier to do things. What's more, Mrs. Qin still has so many people to support. It is urgent for the store to open for business.”
Yes, although she is a mistress, she is a very poor mistress. I used to think that I could rely on my father's help to provide people with monthly income, but now people can only rely on themselves.
Qin Xiangxiang had a slightly troubled look on his face.
"Madam Qin's craftsmanship is very good. If the price is fair and the items are beautiful, the business will definitely be prosperous." Mu Ting said, looking at the night, "It's getting late, Madam, please rest early."
He moved very quickly, and as soon as he finished speaking, the person was gone.
Qin Xiangxiang realized later: "Hey, what do you mean? I open a store, how can the price be unfair?" She stamped her feet angrily, but Mu Ting was nowhere to be seen.
She was angry for a moment at being disturbed by Mu Ting. Not long after she lay down on the bed again, she fell asleep very quickly.
And Mu Ting... turned around and left the foot shop. Zhu Sanlang followed closely in his footsteps. Two figures climbed over the wall of the foot shop and landed in a dilapidated house next door. This house used to be a small food business, but compared to Qin Xiangxiang's foot shop, it was even more dilapidated and had leaks in several places.
Yao Erlang and others are eagerly waiting for their return.
"Why did the young master ask us to evacuate the foot shop?" It is clear that Mrs. Qin will not betray them, let alone drive them away.
Yao Erlang, like Zhu Sanlang, still misses Mrs. Qin's craftsmanship.
Mu Ting glanced at them lazily: "If we don't leave the footwear shop, how can Mrs. Qin open a footwear shop? Make more delicious food? Also, have you forgotten the real purpose of coming to Kyoto? But In just a few days, you have been dazzled by the bustling Kyoto, which is really disappointing."
Do they have it? Everyone looked at each other, not wanting to take the blame. No matter how delicious the food in Kyoto is, and no matter how optimistic the young ladies are, this is not their hometown, so why are they so dazzled? Besides, isn't the real purpose of their coming to Kyoto just to beat up Li Zhuang?
Zhu Sanlang also nodded: "We have to continue to investigate the truth of the Lizhuang case in Kyoto. Madam Qin's foot shop will open in the future. You must cover your nose and stop drooling."
Is this necessary? So why not live further away? Everyone became more and more confused.
But whatever the young master said, they just obeyed.
Isn't it just to resist the delicacies of Mrs. Qin next door? They have grown up in the military camp since they were young. If they can't resist this little temptation, how can they have the shame to call themselves subordinates of Wudehou?
It's just one of those things.
Mu Ting hooked his fingers and asked his subordinates to come closer.
He whispered: "Now it seems that Marquis Wenchang is very strange..."
Before coming to Kyoto, he only thought that Li Zhuang and Qin Guanlan were disgusting, and he wished they could get rid of them quickly. But now he discovered that in front of the powerful nobles in Kyoto, Li Zhuang was like an ant that could easily be crushed to death, and the same was true for the Qin family.
There is also the case of Qin Wanwan, which is even more puzzling.
If based on what he had seen and heard, Qin Wanwan and Song Mingjie truly loved each other. Although they were different in family background, they were considered to be well-matched. Why did Qin Wanwan personally donate the Qin family's property to Marquis Wenchang? Afterwards, Marquis Wenchang became ruthless and determined that Qin Wanwan had harmed Song Mingjie. On that day, Qin Wanwan was angry with Song Mingjie and might she kill him?
Mu Ting thinks more deeply than Zhu Sanlang. Qin Xiangxiang has been running around seemingly mindlessly these past few days, but in fact he secretly instigated Liao Haohai to help her find out about Qin Wanwan.
Here comes the question. Mrs. Qin’s character is that of an unloved and transparent eldest daughter. She never leaves the house all year round. The only time she goes out alone is to donate sesame oil money to her late mother. So how did she learn about Liao Haohai? What about those who admire Qin Wanwan?
