Chapter 45: Face Changes



Wei Yunlan was startled and quickly sank his consciousness into the space.

Seeing those silks all lying safely on the white cloth that had been laid out on the floor of the space, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Immediately, a hint of doubt arose in my heart.

She clearly remembered that when she put things into the space, she had to touch the things she wanted to put away. In order to take away the things in the warehouse, she had to touch the boxes one by one.

But now, all he needs to do is use his mind to collect all the things in the room at once...

Could it be that the power of space has increased?

Wei Yunlan once again sank his consciousness into the space and looked around. There seemed to be nothing different. Whether it was the size of the area or the soil on the ground, everything was exactly the same as before.

Suddenly, she focused her eyes on the fog in the center of the space.

The fog seemed to be a little thinner than before. Looking through the hazy white fog, this time I could clearly see that the black mass wrapped inside was a black dog.

It looked very familiar, it was exactly the one that played with my great-grandfather in the dream!

Wei Yunlan stared at it for a moment. The black dog had its eyes closed and its body was motionless. She couldn't tell whether it was alive or dead. She subconsciously thought that the changes in the space might be related to the black dog. Maybe she could go back and ask her mother what she thought?

Putting aside the doubts in his heart for the time being, Wei Yunlan left the room and locked the door from the outside.

When we drove the carriage back to the inn, Gao and Cheng Yue'e were still asleep.

Ningshuang and Tingxue took turns guarding the window for half a day, but still did not see the figures of Wei Maolin and Wei Mingxuan's team.

"You guys go and have a rest, I'll take over for a while." Wei Yunlan sat down by the window.

The sun sets and the sky gradually darkens.

A red-footed falcon flew quickly past the window, then suddenly flapped its wings and circled back, landing in front of the window.

The bird looked extremely familiar, and sure enough, the next moment, Yu Qi’s figure was seen flipping over the roof into the house.

Wei Yunlan's eyes immediately fell on the fingernail-sized letter box next to the bird's claw, "Is there a letter from my father or Mingxuan?"

"It's from Lord Wei. Every team in the Feather Division of Tianshu Pavilion has a falcon. Mine obeys orders from me or Pei Hu."

Pei Hu is now following Wei Maolin.

Glancing at the contents of the note, Yu Qi said, "Master Wei will be able to reach Suijiang before the sun sets tomorrow at the latest."

The worry on Wei Yunlan's face instantly turned into a smile, and his heart, which had been hanging in the air, suddenly relaxed.

It’s a pity that there was no second red-footed falcon to report the news, otherwise the other half would have landed by now.

The next morning.

As soon as it was light, Wei Yunlan took Tingxue and Suihe out.

The two maids were still dressed casually, but she continued to dress as a man so as not to appear different from her previous identity in front of Manager Feng.

It was still early before the agreed time, so Wei Yunlan sent Tingxue to the yard rented by Mr. Luo to receive the pigs, sheep and cured meat ordered yesterday.

She took Suihe for a walk on the street again and bought some cloth, kapok, silk flowers and embroidery threads whose prices had not increased in the city.

If she hadn't had to keep the money to buy the batch of porcelain from Yuantao Ju, she would actually have liked a batch of gold and silver jewelry with filigree craftsmanship.

These things that have nothing to do with food and livelihood are now sold cheaper than usual in Suijiang. If you take them to other places and resell them, you can make an extra 10% or 20% of silver.

"Forget it, one should not be too greedy." Wei Yunlan shook his head slightly and retracted his regretful look.

Of the 25,000 taels of silver notes exchanged from Tianshu Pavilion, 16,000 taels were left after buying the silk, and in the end, all of it was used to buy this batch of porcelain from Yuantaoju.

Wei Yunlan did not take advantage of the situation to lower the price to the lowest. She only made an agreement with Manager Feng during the transaction that if she came to Suijiang to buy porcelain again, Yuan Tao Ju would unconditionally give priority to selling the porcelain to her if the prices were the same.

Shopkeeper Feng agreed without hesitation and even gave Wei Yunlan an extra set, which were said to be tea cups made by his grandfather when he was alive.

This batch of porcelain was quite large, packed in wooden boxes, filling nearly a hundred boxes.

The servants of Yuan Tao Ju went back and forth between the city and outside the city several times before they all moved into Wei Yunlan's two small courtyards.

While the guys were moving things, Wei Yunlan went to different places to exchange the remaining banknotes and gold leaves for silver.

She did not touch the money again. She had other plans after leaving Suijiang.

After asking Tingxue and Suihe to load some pork, mutton and cured goods onto the carriage, Wei Yunlan returned to the yard. In just a few breaths, he put all the neatly stacked wooden boxes in the yard, as well as other things that were delivered to the yard during the day, into the space.

The space, which was originally somewhat empty, finally seemed a little fuller after being filled with these supplies.

On the way back to the inn, Wei Yunlan sank his consciousness into the space and sorted out the location of the supplies.

With the black dog wrapped in mist in the middle as the center, close to the edge of the space on the left, there are a thousand pieces of silk neatly stacked, wooden boxes filled with ceramics, as well as cloth, kapok, silk threads and other items.

On the right are the things she brought out from the storehouse of the Marquis' Mansion, as well as her dowry from her original private storehouse.

The upper part was where water and household items were stored, and the remaining food and meat were placed in the lower part near the black dog.

Pulling his consciousness out of the space, Wei Yunlan thought with interest, wondering if the smell of meat could seduce the black dog to open its eyes?

As soon as the carriage stopped, Ningshuang, who was waiting in front of the inn, hurried forward.

"Miss, the master and Steward Wang are back!"

"Great!" Wei Yunlan hurriedly got out of the car and strode into the inn.

Wei Maolin and his group had entered the inn just a moment earlier than her, and at this time everyone was gathered in a room on the third floor.

Gao was checking the wound on Wei Maolin's neck.

Seeing that everyone was staring at him, Wei Maolin twisted his neck somewhat embarrassedly, "Much better, don't look. After Guard Pei helped me remove the wooden yoke, my injury has not worsened."

Gao grabbed at the collar and only let go after seeing it with her own eyes.

Just then Wei Yunlan pushed the door and walked in.

"Lan'er." Wei Maolin recognized his daughter dressed in men's clothes at a glance.

After only three days, everyone in the room was filled with emotion as they were reunited again. Only they themselves knew how thrilling these past few days had been.

Gao looked around the room and asked, "I wonder where Mingxuan is now?"

He is the only one missing from the family.

Just as the words fell, Jia Yan, who was sitting by the window, suddenly stood up from her chair and pointed at the city gate and said excitedly, "Mother, aunt, look over there, isn't that Nanny Wang?"

Wei Yunlan looked in the direction he pointed.

The ragged Nanny Wang and Liu Quan led a mule into the city. There was a figure lying on the cart board pulled behind the mule. When they got closer, they recognized that it was Guixiang. There was no sign of the other two people.

Wei Yunlan's expression suddenly changed. "Why aren't Mingxuan and Wang Gui here?"
