"You mean..." Mrs. Lin's voice trembled, "maybe my granddaughter is not dead?"
"The poor monk is just guessing." Miao Ran said.
"After all, I only judged based on her clothes at first. Although everyone thought it was a young lady, the poor monk thought that it was not impossible to make a mistake!"
"Okay, okay!" Mrs. Lin's eyes turned red.
"In the first few years, I couldn't leave the capital, and these servants would only fool me. Now that I have come to Qinghe County, I must investigate what happened back then!"
"Old madam, having said that, so many years have passed, and even if the young lady is alive, she has already grown up. How can we find her in the vast sea of people?"
"It's just one person, what's the difficulty? Not to mention Qinghe County, even the entire Anchang Mansion, I can turn it upside down."
At this point, the old lady suddenly stopped and asked: "Where do all the pilgrims here come from?
Ming Ran clasped his hands together: "Yunzhou Temple is full of incense, so it naturally welcomes visitors from all directions!"
Mrs. Lin glanced at her: "How popular is it? I've lived here for seven days, and I haven't seen many people in total.
Since you are so popular, you can save money on the incense at Ding'an Marquis Mansion this year. "
"Amitabha, Yunzhou Temple is where the incense of Ding'an Marquis Mansion is." Miao Ran said quickly.
He twirled the beads and then said: "Yunzhou Temple is located at the junction of Qinghe County and Lujiang County. The only ones who came here are villagers from several nearby places, including Qingshan Village, Xiaodang Village, Yuan'an Village, and Leji Village."
"Where did the Ye An who kidnapped my daughter live?" the old lady asked.
"My uncle and his wife settled in Qinghe County."
"Okay, I will ask the magistrate of Qinghe County to help find it. As for the incense in Yunzhou Temple... If my granddaughter can't find it, your temple doesn't need it!"
After hearing these words, cracks suddenly appeared on Ming Ran's always compassionate face!
He just said one more sentence.
Why can't Yunzhou Temple be saved?
Is this too hasty?
Ignoring his surprised expression, the old lady had already left the meditation room.
Soon, Butler Su was ordered to go down the mountain to find the county magistrate.
The old lady informed the maids to pack their things as she was going down the mountain to stay at the inn.
"Old Madam!" Chunhua, as the head of the four maids, was the first to come out and comfort her:
"Old madam, when we came here, we agreed that we would only stay for half a month, and we even brought more than twenty days' worth of medicine.
On the one hand, the Marquis was worried that he was suddenly going to live there. On the other hand, what should he do after taking this medicine? "
Mrs. Lin sneered: "Master Hou's heart is all about government affairs, so how can he have time to pay attention to my wretched wife!
As for the medicine, you immediately send people back to Beijing to get it. If you delay it for a few days, no one will die. "
"But Old Madam," Xia Chan also advised, "If you don't go back for so long, I'm afraid the prince will also have trouble sleeping and eating."
"Take medicine if you have trouble sleeping or eating. Haven't I been taking medicine for so many years?" The old lady was not moved at all.
The four girls knew the old lady's temper best, and knew that if they continued to persuade her, the old lady would definitely get angry, so they had no choice but to exchange looks and start packing their luggage.

Qingshan Village.
Ye Luoxin and Xiao Mu returned to the village.
Xu Zhengxiang and others have also arrived home.
Seeing the two of them, Yang Feng immediately greeted them: "Luo Xin, come on, how much do you think we sold today?"
"Hmm...24 taels." Ye Luoxin pretended to guess.
"No, it's 26 taels!" Yang Feng said excitedly, "That's 2 taels more than yesterday!"
"Okay!" Ye Luoxin smiled, "Is the guy from Zhaixinglou here again today?"
"No!" Xu Zhengxiang also intervened in the conversation between the two of them, deliberately prolonging the conversation and said: "But... the shopkeeper of Zhaixing Tower is here!"
"The shopkeeper of Zhaixinglou?" Ye Luoxin was surprised.
"Why did he come to buy it by himself? Didn't he always send the store clerk here before? Is there something else?"
"You are still smart!" Xu Zhengxiang said proudly: "What do you think he is here for? He actually wants to buy our prescription!"
Looking at Xu Zhengxiang's expression, Ye Luoxin knew that she must have refused.
Sure enough, Xu Zhengxiang said next: "He didn't even think about it, can our recipes be sold casually?
He also pretended to be generous in front of me and said that he was willing to pay five thousand taels of silver! He said that with these five thousand taels of silver, we wouldn’t have to work so hard to get up early every day to open the store. This money is enough for the grandchildren.
Who did he deceive? Do you think I'm an old country lady who doesn't know anything and is blind to money?
Just these five thousand taels are not enough for us to earn in a year! "
"Then how did you reply to him?" Ye Luoxin found it interesting.
"I replied to him, let alone 5,000 taels, even if it was 5,000 taels, we would not be able to sell this recipe.
Nothing passed down by our ancestors should be passed on to others. "
Xu Zhengxiang knew that Ye Luoxin would never agree to sell his son under any circumstances, so he simply blocked the way out with one sentence so that he would not have to make other plans.
After finishing speaking, Xu Zhengxiang smiled: "Luo Xin, to tell you the truth, I never thought that I would have the opportunity to enter the Star Reaching Tower in my life.
Not to mention walking in, even passing by his door, I was a little embarrassed.
As a result, when I met the shopkeeper in person today, I suddenly felt that it was nothing more than that!
He is an old man, but he is still far behind us, Luo Xin! "
Ye Luoxin also laughed: "Mom, he is a big shopkeeper no matter what, but our small shop still can't compare with him."
"No way, you are much younger than him. When you get to his age, you will definitely be richer than him!"
"Well! When the time comes, I will buy a Zhuangzi for my mother and let her do whatever she wants!"
"Then I will fill the village with rabbits."
"Mom, then I will be responsible for feeding the rabbits!" Yang Feng said quickly.
The three of them look forward to a better life in the future together.
Xiao Song took out today's accounts, including the money, and showed them to Xiao Mu one by one.
Xiao Mu accepted the money and pointed out the wrong things in the account to Xiao Song. Finally, he patted him on the shoulder and said: "Brother, you have no problem with simple accounts now. I will teach you when you are free." You are a bit complicated."
"Yeah!" Xiao Song nodded repeatedly.
Xiao Changhe was still playing with his leather, and the whole family felt that the days were getting more and more promising.
The next day, they went to the shop to sell braised rabbit as usual.
Unexpectedly, the shopkeeper of Zhaixinglou, who had thought he would never show up again, appeared in the store again.
