As for Chu Xing, who was being talked about by them…
He had just arrived outside the bookstore. He had been walking around the entire time and asking the people passing by for information. He had no source of information and could only rely on citizens ask for information.
He usually did some small business in town and also knew some people, so it was convenient to ask for information.
However, because Ye Muyu had hidden herself in the bookstore, no one saw her. Naturally, Chu Xing could not get any information at all.
Just as he anxiously decided to continue searching, it began to rain.
He had to find a place to shelter from the rain and habitually went outside the bookstore.
When Butler Luo and the others came over, they saw him squatting outside the shop, looking rather pitiful.
“Butler Luo?” When Chu Xing saw Luo Qisheng, his eyes instantly overflowed with excitement. He could not care less about his clothes being drenched by the rain. He quickly went forward to grab him and asked anxiously, “Have you found Sister-in-law? I’ve looked around, but there’s no news. If Brother Heng finds out that Sister-in-law is missing, he’ll definitely be very angry and anxious. It’s all my fault..
“Wait…” Luo Qisheng had seen Chu Xing, who was beside Chu Heng. Hearing his words, he asked, “Don’t you know that Madam is fine?”
“Madam is in the Xie residence. The county is not very stable now. This old servant will get someone to send you to the Xie residence.”
“What? Did you find Sister-in-law?” Chu Xing was overjoyed. He muttered with some lingering fear, “It’s good that you found her. I’ll go to the Xie residence myself. I won’t trouble you.”
“Young Master Xing, you don’t have to be so polite. It’s more convenient to use one of our own servants in the Xie residence.” Luo Qisheng tilted his head and called out to a servant. The servant first bowed to Chu Xing with great respect. Chu Xing was not used to it. He turned sideways. “Alright, I’ll go over first.” “Yes.” Luo Qisheng nodded.
After watching the two of them leave, he quickly entered the bookstore.
After Luo Qisheng entered the bookstore, the backyard was instantly filled with people.
He quickly arranged for people to guard the city gate and outside the Wang family’s residence. If there was any news, it would be sent out in time.
He looked at the newly received envelope with concern. It said that he had full authority to cooperate with the Xie family.
However, Chu Heng did not mention his own situation, which made him a little worried.
In the Xie residence, the rain could not stop the number of guards arranged in various courtyards from increasing.
After Madam Qian was taken to relieve herself by the servant girls of the Xie residence, she said to Ye Muyu and the rest, “The Xie family is indeed a wealthy family. I just went to the toilet and there were many servants guarding along the way. It’s too well-managed.”
“Just now, Master Xie and Mrs. Xie looked like they were difficult to get close to at all. I didn’t expect the rules at home to be so strict. I didn’t perform too badly just now, right?” Madam Qian touched her clothes and asked somewhat shyly.
“Fifth Sister-in-law, you did well.” Madam Liu could not help but smile.
“That’s good.” Madam Qian chuckled.
“You mean, the atmosphere in the Xie residence is very serious?” Madam Liu noticed her words.
Probably. Anyway, I’ve already made this trip and I’m too embarrassed to look around. There’s a manservant guarding every two steps. I’ve never seen such a scene before. I’ve heard of it before, but this is the first time I’ve seen it.”
Chu Liushi was suspicious. She asked Ye Muyu, “Third daughter-in-law, do you think something happened to the Xie residence?”
“Mother, nothing has happened to the Xie residence. It’s just that something might happen in the county.” Ye Muyu did not intend to reveal the relationship between the Wang family’s Second Young Master and the bandits. After all, it was just a guess..
