...Bai Yang, Jiang Liu and her servant, Qiu Ling'er, Cao Shi and others first went to the Qiu residence courtyard.

Not seeing Qiu Dafu and Qiu Xu, she inquired with Lu Geng.

"Do you know where Ah Xu and his second uncle went?"

Lu Geng shook his head, "Reporting to Madam, they said this morning that they wanted to go to Huaiyuan to take a look."

Jiang Liu nodded. She didn't bring Cui Zhu and Cao Shi with her. She went to the Qiu residence in Qingyun and Xiajia Village again with Qiu Ling'er, but she didn't see Qiu Dafu and the other person.

Jiang and Liu went to Huaiyuan again, including to their own families.

Afterwards, she took Qiu Ling'er to the Xu residence, but still couldn't find anyone.

Feeling inexplicably uneasy, she and Ling'er went to Baiyang again, thinking that Qiu Dafu would return home if he couldn't find Qiu Yan. However, when night fell, they still hadn't seen Qiu Dafu.

Where on earth did those two, uncle and nephew, go looking for Xiaoyan?

"Second Aunt, don't worry." Qiu Ling'er comforted Jiang Liu when she saw her sitting restlessly.

Then, she pushed open the door and went out of the yard.

Seeing the old beggar sitting cross-legged at the courtyard gate,

"Uncle, have you seen two men, one big and one small, recently?"

Upon hearing Qiu Ling'er's question, Jiang Liu followed her out of the hospital and listened attentively to the old beggar's words.

The old beggar's eyes were cloudy, and he was starving and on the verge of death.

"Little girl, please have mercy and give me some food."

Qiu Ling'er glanced at Jiang Liu, and saw Jiang Liu instruct Cui Zhu to go home and get some food.

The old beggar, having eaten and drunk his fill, closed his eyes and began to sleep.

Qiu Ling'er was anxious and shook the old beggar.

"Uncle, have you seen my second uncle and my brother?"

"Your second uncle and your brother?" The old beggar thought for a moment:

“This morning, a tall man saved me. He and a boy of about ten years old chased after a carriage ahead. Yes, that carriage almost hit me, and now I've been begging here all day, unable to go anywhere.”

"What carriage?"

"The carriage smelled strongly of medicine, and the man inside looked sickly."

"Thank you, sir." Qiu Ling'er's face showed a hint of bitterness.

"Second Aunt, Second Uncle and Brother went to chase after Brother Qin Feng."

Knowing the whereabouts of Qiu Dafu and his nephew, Jiang Liu felt increasingly uneasy.

"Which way is the carriage going?" she asked the old beggar.

The old beggar squinted. "Which way? Over there." He pointed to the north.

"Northern Qi?" Qiu Dafu had gone to the border; this news was too sudden for Jiang Liu.

They had just gotten married and were newlyweds.

She didn't want him to leave her.

Qiu Ling'er's face fell. "Second Uncle, Brother, you should go home quickly."

In a daze, Jiang Liu suddenly felt nauseous.

Then, the old beggar pointed to the west and continued, "Back then, I also saw a girl and a man heading that way."

Qiu Ling'er's eyes flickered: "It must be my sister and cousin Ling Qi."

Second Uncle, Brother, you're going in the wrong direction.

Then she asked Jiang Liu, "Second Aunt, where did my sister and Cousin Ling Qi go?"

Jiang Liu shook her head. Qiu Yan only said that she wanted to sell herbs, but she felt that was not the case.

"To the west." Three more cities to the west, and you'll reach the frontier.

Their Baiyang is located in a remote corner. If Xiaoyan wants to sell herbs, the best locations would be the east and south.

"What exactly is she trying to do?" Jiang Liu wondered anxiously, fearing that Qiu Yan might be in danger.

She felt increasingly nervous.

She's probably going to have a complete sleepless night.

She clutched her chest, gagging repeatedly. Suddenly, she saw a familiar figure appear at the end of the road.
