Beijing.
Osmanthus Alley.
Wang Sa has been transferred to Ren Qingyuan, and Qu Yaxiang welcomes him through the door.
Chen Xu and the other three were taken away by the hidden guards who arrived later.
"Lord Wang..."
"Don't call me Mr. Wang, just call me Wang Sa or Brother Wang."
Wang Sa waved his hand and said.
"Brother Wang, my mother's whistle..."
Ren Qingyuan's mind was full of doubts, but he didn't know where to start. After thinking about it, he asked about the whistle.
"You can just ask your mother about this."
Wang Sa picked up the teacup, took a big sip, and raised his eyebrows.
"I'm afraid my mother won't tell me."
Ren Qingyuan smiled bitterly.
At this time, Qu Yaxiang had already gone to the backyard, and Ren Qingyuan did not mince words if he was not here.
"The family doesn't talk to each other, and you didn't ask. How do you know your mother doesn't talk to you?"
Wang Sa said.
"Okay, Brother Wang, I won't ask any more questions about this matter."
"But that Chen Xu, brother Wang, don't let him go so easily."
Ren Qingyuan said.
"That's natural. If a villain like Chen Xu is given a chance to stand up, he won't come to take revenge on your family."
Wang Sa reached out and patted Ren Qingyuan's shoulder and said: "Don't worry, Chen Xu will not have another chance to retaliate against you. Their family is a nearby businessman. We have found out that their family evaded business taxes. Therefore, they No one in the family can escape.”
Only then did Ren Qingyuan understand the tyranny of the hidden guards.
Because of Chen Xu's behavior, their whole family was implicated.
However, Ren Qingyuan is not a pedantic person, and he will not intercede for Chen Xu's family.
You know, if Wang Sa hadn't arrived in time, what would have happened to their family by Chen Xu? He didn't even dare to think about it.
"Brother Wang, I'll stay here at noon today and let my little brother entertain you." Ren Qingyuan changed his mind and said.
"No need, I'm on official business. I'll come back when I have free time."
"By the way, tell mother that you must keep the whistle well."
Wang Sa stood up, drank the tea in one gulp, and strode outside.
He indeed had a lot to do, and it was a coincidence that he appeared here today.
Knowing that Wang Sa was leaving, Qu Yaxiang, who was busy in the backyard, also hurriedly chased him out.
I tried to persuade him to stay and said a few polite words.
After Wang Sa left, Qu Yaxiang closed the door tightly.
"Where's Aunt Ning?"
Ren Qingyuan asked.
Aunt Ning was the maid who served Qu Yaxiang back then. She has been following her for so many years.
Although her identity is that of a maid, she has long been considered a relative of Ren Qingyuan after living together for so many years.
"She went out to buy groceries."
"My dear, let mother take a look."
Qu Yaxiang carefully looked at the injuries on Ren Qingyuan's face, feeling heartbroken.
"It's okay, it's just a little skin injury. It'll be fine after a few days of rest."
Ren Qingyuan smiled.
"Why don't you ask your husband for a few days off and have a good rest at home?"
Qu Yaxiang was already looking for ointment in the cabinet in the room.
Qu Yaxiang always has the ointment for bruises and bruises that is used daily.
"It won't work. I only asked for one day's leave. I will return to the academy tomorrow."
Ren Qingyuan shook his head.
He was helpless. Now was the period when Bailudong Academy was on the rise, and many affairs were extremely busy. In addition to the original masters, he, the senior brother, also had to take on many affairs.
"The Chinese New Year will be coming soon, so the students in the academy should have a few days of rest, right?"
Qu Yaxiang said in confusion.
"It's true that other academies are like this, but Bailudong Academy is not very successful."
Ren Qingyuan said: "Many of the newly enrolled students are orphans without parents. Now the academy is their home, so how can the academy have a holiday?"
Those students were all entrusted to Bailudong Academy by the Zhongyong Hou Mansion.
When Yang Ruoqing was training secret guards, she basically chose orphans.
Children from good families rarely endure hardships and have difficulty keeping secrets. Orphans are different. They are like pieces of blank paper on which you can paint as much as you like.
The government can teach them martial arts, but it still falls short of teaching them how to read.
Now they are cooperating with Zhongyong Houfu and Bailudong Academy, so they can study hard under a famous master.
"That's not possible."
Qu Yaxiang nodded, she still felt very relieved.
His son was excellent and lived up to his expectations.
"Mom, after the Chinese New Year, the Spring Boudoir Examination will be held. I want to give it a try."
Ren Qingyuan said.
"Okay, my son is ambitious."
Originally, Qu Yaxiang thought that it would be safer to let Ren Qingyuan consolidate for another two years and participate in the next trial.
But since Ren Qingyuan has the ambition to try and is not afraid of setbacks, she also supports it.
Having said this, Qu Yaxiang no longer stopped him from returning to the academy.
At this time, the courtyard door outside rang.
"Yuan'er, your Aunt Ning is back."
Qu Yaxiang got up and walked outside.
The words Ren Qingyuan wanted to say were swallowed back in his stomach again, so he had to stand up and follow his mother Qu Yaxiang outside.
Qu Yaxiang opened the door bolt and opened the door. What she saw was Jing Jing's anxious face.
"Madam, sir, you are safe and sound, that's fine."
Jing Jing patted her chest, let out a long breath, and her heart that had been holding her heart dropped.
"We're fine." Qu Yaxiang nodded.
Ren Qingyuan took the initiative to go out and pick up the vegetable basket that fell on the ground.
The vegetable basket is quite heavy and filled with vegetables, meat, eggs, etc.
"When I was in the alley, I heard someone say that the bad guy from the Chen family was coming towards our house, so I hurried home. Fortunately, nothing serious happened."
Ning Jing immediately saw the injury on Ren Qingyuan's face.
She immediately stepped forward, her eyes red.
"Master, your face... was this done by the Chen family member?"
There was anger in Tranquility's eyes.
Ning Jing has martial arts skills, and his martial arts level is quite high.
Qu Yaxiang has lived a good life these years, and most of the credit needs to be attributed to Jingjing.
"Aunt Ning, it's okay. The person named Chen has been arrested by the Yamen police."
Ren Qingyuan smiled.
"They deserve it. That family is all wicked and deserve to be put in the hot pot."
Aunt Ning said fiercely.
"Aunt Ning, go back to your room, it's all over." Ren Qingyuan walked inside carrying the bamboo basket.
Closing the door again, the family returned to the house.
After all, Ren Qingyuan couldn't help but asked: "Mom, Aunt Ning, that whistle..."
"Madam, did you use the whistle?" Aunt Ning asked.
"I have no choice but to use it."
Qu Yaxiang smiled bitterly.
Listening to the conversation between his mother and Aunt Ning, Ren Qingyuan knew that they both knew the truth.
The only one who was kept in the dark was himself.
However, he would not blame his mother and Aunt Ning.
"Son, this matter is of great importance. I don't know whether I should tell you or not."
Qu Yaxiang said hesitantly.
"Mom, I'm an adult now, no matter what happens, I can accept it."
Ren Qingyuan took a deep breath and said.
