After hearing the two people's backgrounds, An Hehua was first surprised and then heartbroken.

"You grew up in a wealthy family, yet you have to endure so much hardship. It's truly a sin."

"It's okay. Auntie doesn't blame you. You've been through so much at such a young age. You should be wary of others. If you weren't, you might have been eaten alive by others."

Zhang Xiaoxiao wiped the tears from her eyes and cried, "I'm sorry, Auntie. We didn't mean to deceive you. I really like you. You are just like my grandmother. My grandmother also likes to touch my head, pat my back, and put me to sleep."

An Hehua held Xiao Xiao on her lap and coaxed her, "Good boy, I don't blame you. Don't blame yourselves. I understand how difficult it is for you."

An Hehua smiled and said kindly, "Auntie said that if you want to say it, you can say it. If you don't want to say it, no one will force you to say it, and you won't be lying."

"I've long guessed that you two siblings are of extraordinary status, but I didn't expect you to be the Marquis's children," An Jingzhi said jokingly, "I've also been called big brother by the Marquis's children. It's a great honor to tell others about it."

The two men burst into laughter, and Zhang Xiaoxiao said crisply, "Brother Jingzhi, you are better than my brother. My brother always has a stern face and doesn't like to talk to us."

"Xiaoxiao." Zhang Sanlang shook his head gently at her.

Zhang Xiaoxiao said dissatisfiedly: "That's right, I don't like Big Brother, I like Big Brother Jingzhi."

An Jingzhi touched the back of Zhang Sanlang's head and said, "Alright, we're all family. What are you afraid of being overheard? Are you worried that we might snitch on you?"

Zhang Sanlang looked embarrassed and waved his hands quickly: "That's not what I meant, I'm just used to it."

They are used to being careful with their words and actions, not letting their parents worry about their sibling relationship and not putting their parents in a difficult position.

Judging from the two of them, although they are favored by Marquis Chang'en in his mansion, it is estimated that things will not be so smooth.

"Then how did you get kidnapped?" An Hehua asked curiously after hearing some of their experiences in the Chang'an Marquis Mansion.

"Don't children from wealthy families always have many followers when they go out?"

Children from merchant families in this small place always have two or three followers when they go out.

Zhang Sanlang's expression was a little confused. "I, I'm not too sure."

"I know," Zhang Xiaoxiao became much more lively after telling the secret, "It was my brother's followers who said they needed people to move things, so they borrowed our people. They said they would return them immediately, but they never came back." There was resentment in her tone.

How could I not be angry? This good young lady from an official family was abducted and had to endure so much suffering and go through so many crises along the way.

If she hadn't met An Jingzhi, she would have ended up in a brothel.

Even if he is found by the Chang'an Marquis Mansion in the future, it will be a stain on the Chang'an Marquis Mansion, and he will probably be worse than death.

"Aren't there two people watching you?" An Hehua felt a little distressed. Although the two children were sensible, the eldest, Zhang Sanlang, was only ten years old, and An Xiaoxiao was only six or seven years old.

"Originally, we left Agui to look after us, but he suddenly had a stomachache and went to the toilet." Zhang Sanlang pursed his lips and said.

Now there is no need for him to hide anything from these two people.

"Oh." An Hehua finally understood. It was still the dirty things happening in the rich families.

"So what are you going to do now? Do you want to go back?"

An Jingzhi asked, "In half a month we plan to open a escort route to the capital."

The two nodded, looking surprised: "Thank you, Brother Jingzhi. If it's not too much trouble, we will go back with you."

"What's the trouble? It's just a matter of convenience."

An Jingzhi turned to An Hehua and said, "Mom, come with us, we can just have fun."

"You never know if you go out for a walk and run into your adoptive father."

An Hehua smiled and said, "How can I be so lucky?" I haven't met him for forty years, but I met him when I went out?

"Mom, let's go out for a walk. Don't you trust them to go back on their own?"

An Hehua looked at the two children, who were also looking at her expectantly.

She actually couldn't bear to part with the two children, but they had better statuses and she couldn't restrain them.

"This... the capital isn't close. It'll take at least ten days or half a month to walk there, right?"

An Jingzhi said: "No need, we can get there in ten days by carriage."

"You have been taking care of the two children. If you go with them, they will feel more at ease."

The escort employees sent by An Jingzhi would look for someone everywhere whenever they arrived at a place. Perhaps they did not have Yu Dongjun's luck, so they just could not find this person.

Even if An Jingzhi knew where Xie Guangwu might appear, he would miss him by accident when he went there.

This time he planned to go directly to the capital.

At least we can arrange for the two of them to meet.

Using two children to persuade An Hehua is the most appropriate way.

After An Hehua agreed, An Jingzhi went to arrange the business of the escort agency. Half a month later, he drove a carriage towards the capital with a group of people and luggage of all sizes.

An Jingzhi's escort business grew bigger and bigger, but An Hehua was still used to wearing the same coarse cloth clothes and was unwilling to move. She still loved to live in the compound where she had lived for half her life.

This time she went out, she still wore the same plain coarse cloth clothes, but she also brought a set of better clothes.

When the time comes, she will follow An Jingzhi to send the two children to the Chang'en Marquis's house. She must wear good clothes and not embarrass the two children.

The closer they got to the capital, the more excited Zhang Xiaoxiao became.

The people in the compound were very nice to her, but they could not replace her parents.

On the other hand, although Zhang Sanlang was also very excited, there was always a hint of anxiety in his expression.

Even if the mastermind behind the two of them being abducted was not his elder brother, he must have been involved.

He didn't want to make things difficult for his father.

He looked at Zhang Xiaoxiao, but he didn't want his sister to suffer in vain.

"Auntie, my parents love me and my brother so much," Zhang Xiaoxiao said cheerfully, "I'll ask them to buy you delicious food and new clothes when the time comes."

At this point, she suddenly became a little discouraged and said, "But Auntie doesn't seem to like these things very much." Even the new clothes were only worn by the two of them.

"Auntie," she said seriously, "I heard from Brother Jingzhi that you are looking for your husband. My father knows a lot of people. I asked him to send someone to help you find him! He will definitely be found!"

When waiting has become a habit, An Hehua is no longer disturbed.

She smiled and said, "Okay, okay, thank you in advance."

When they arrived in the capital, the group did not go out immediately. Instead, they found an inn and prepared to rest.

Unexpectedly, the imperial examination was approaching, and I had to go to several inns before I found this one.

After finding a place to stay, An Jingzhi sent people out to investigate and learned that Marquis Chang'en had been looking for his children. Only then did he return with relief and prepare to bring people to visit him.
