Song Xiaowu was taken aback, somewhat surprised that the person in front of him was so perceptive, able to guess that something had happened to Miss Jiang based on just one letter.
He heard that Miss Jiang and the young master were trapped in a cave together, and even though they had come out, they were probably quite injured.
Although he knew something had happened over there, he still smiled and said, "Madam, you're overthinking it. Miss Jiang is doing well, so please don't worry. Just wait here patiently, and Miss Jiang will definitely be back soon."
As he spoke, he turned to leave, afraid that saying more might lead to making a mistake.
Wang Fengqin grabbed him, her eyes instantly reddening, and asked nervously, "You, are you telling the truth? Nothing really happened to Yi Mian?"
Song Xiaowu hesitated for a moment, especially when he saw the other woman's red eyes and pale face. He felt a little soft-hearted and thought that the matter should be good news, so he smiled and nodded, saying, "Don't worry, Madam, nothing really happened. Miss Jiang didn't come back just because she found Master Jiang. He suffered a minor injury and is recuperating."
"It won't be long before your family is reunited."
He had heard that Miss Jiang and the young master had opened the stone gate to the mine for the others by breaking into it first, which allowed them to successfully raid the mine this time.
They even managed to rescue Master Jiang despite being surrounded by a large crowd, which was quite impressive.
If he hadn't had his own things to do recently, he definitely would have gone with them.
I just don't know how serious Miss Jiang and the young master's injuries are.
Wang Fengqin stared wide-eyed in disbelief, grabbed the other person's clothes, and tears instantly streamed down her face. "You, you're telling the truth, Yi Mian, you found Da Zhuang?"
She thought she would never see Dazhuang again for the rest of her life, but the person in front of her said that Yimian had found Dazhuang.
No, no, she, she has to see it with her own eyes.
If Dazhuang is injured, then her daughter must be in no better shape.
Thinking it over, she quickly said, "Xiao Ye, hurry up and pack your things with Mother, let's go see Sister."
She no longer wanted to wait in the village; she wanted to see for herself.
I want to see with my own eyes whether Yi Mian is alright, and to see with my own eyes whether Jiang Dazhuang has really been found.
Song Xiaowu was somewhat confused about the current situation. When he saw Wang Fengqin standing in front of him with two children and a bundle on her back, he realized that he had messed things up.
He stared at the group and said hesitantly, "Madam, the journey to the capital is long. How can you manage with two children? If something happens, Miss Jiang will worry. You should just stay home and wait."
If he had known that his words not only failed to comfort Wang Fengqin but also made her want to go to the capital, he certainly wouldn't have said anything more.
This is terrible.
Wang Fengqin agreed with what the other person said and nodded. Just as she was hesitating about who should accompany them to the capital, she saw Wang Xiaohei driving the carriage back.
Wang Xiaohei had come back to get something. Seeing everyone standing in the yard, he asked in surprise, "What's going on? Why are you all standing in the yard?"
Before she could finish speaking, Wang Fengqin quickly added, "Xiao Hei, you drive the carriage and come with us to the capital. Xiao Yu, you two stay home and keep a close eye on things. If anything happens at the workshop, remember to tell Dayong."
As she spoke, she led the two children into the carriage.
Wang Xiaohei was taken aback, guessing that something had happened to Jiang Yimian, and quickly nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go to the shop and get a few sets of clothes in a bit."
Seeing that the group in front of him was really going to the capital, Song Xiaowu remained silent for a while before gritting his teeth and saying, "I'll take you all with me."
The two pavilion masters returned to their pavilions. He was also going to help the young master, not now, but he would go anyway, so it wouldn't hurt to bring these people with him.
To save Jiang's mother from worrying and falling ill at home all day, it's better to go and see for herself.
Moreover, it would be safer to go to the capital with him, and with the secret guards arranged by the young master, they would at least not be targeted by any foolish bandits.
Wang Fengqin nodded repeatedly in thanks, "Okay, okay, thank you so much. With you here, Yi Mian won't worry even if she knows we're going to the capital."
The unease she had felt earlier subsided because of the other person's words. She had impulsively said she wanted to go to the capital, but she was actually worried. She was afraid that something might happen on the way, and she was also worried that Mianmian would be too busy to take care of her.
With Song Xiaowu with them, they would be safer.
*
Jiang Yimian didn't know that Wang Fengqin and the others were coming to the capital until five days later.
She had been busy with matters at the estate for the past few days, and only after converting several courtyards into workshops and rearranging the tasks for the people at the estate did she finally breathe a sigh of relief.
In addition, Jiang Dazhuang has improved a lot and can walk around now. He is helped by Zhao Xiaonian to move around every day, and his spirits have also improved a lot.
She was relieved and decided to go to the capital to visit Baoxiangfang.
Lu Cijian also had to go to the Ministry of Justice.
So the two of them rode their horses toward the capital.
The journey was smooth, and when the two arrived in the capital, it was already evening. They casually found an inn to rest.
The next morning, after a simple breakfast, we left the inn together.
It was too late yesterday, and coupled with the fatigue from the journey, Jiang Yimian wasn't in the mood to properly enjoy the scenery of the capital.
Even with just a casual glance, I noticed that many streets were brightly lit and bustling with activity.
The capital city was even more dazzling during the day. The streets were filled with people dressed in silks and satins, each wearing valuable hairpins, jewelry, and jade pendants, exuding an air of wealth and nobility.
Every now and then, luxurious carriages and caravans in various costumes would travel through the streets.
The surrounding pavilions, towers, and shops are also exceptionally well-designed.
Even the shop signs are all different, as if they are vying for attention.
It's no wonder it's the capital city; wealth is evident everywhere.
Jiang Yimian glanced around casually before looking away, then turned to Lu Cijian and asked, "Do you know where Baoxiangfang is?"
She had been looking all the way here, but hadn't seen the signboard for Baoxiangfang.
Lu Cijian was taken aback, and hesitated for a while before saying, "The shop you're talking about is Baoxiangfang?"
Jiang Yimian nodded, "That's right, Xie Yu gave me the shop, saying it was suitable for me, but I don't even know what it is, and I'm not sure if I can do the lipstick business!"
Lu Cijian chuckled lightly and said in a strange tone, "You'll see when you go and see for yourself. If you share half of the profits with me, you'll be at a loss."
It's not too late to back out now.
Jiang Yimian was a little confused. "What do you mean?"
Since Zhuangzi was acquired with Lu Cijian's help, although the contract is not yet in her hands, it is almost certain.
This made things convenient for her, as she didn't need to rebuild the workshop.
Pingjiang County is also not far from the capital, making it a perfect place to open a workshop, with all the necessary staff.
In truth, she really came out on top.
Thinking that she couldn't let Lu Cijian suffer a loss, she suggested that he be treated as an investor and that they could just wait for dividends in the future.
She had thought that no matter how she calculated it, the profit wouldn't be enough to match the value of the estate, so she generously offered to give him half. But now, listening to what he said, she felt something was off.
