Chapter 292 Tear Their Mouths Apart
"Madam Ye, I'll head back now; I have some important matters to attend to."
Liu Wenshu was eager to go back and find out what had just happened. He felt it wasn't an accident; there aren't that many accidents in the world.
"Young Master Pei, may I give you a ride?"
Liu Wenshu looked at Pei San Gongzi with sharp eyes and a hint of warning.
It's best not to say anything carelessly.
Pei Zhichuan remained calm. "No need. I have my own carriage."
Ye Wan didn't see the tension between the two, and coaxed Xiao Bao, "Qingdai, go to your shop."
She needs to find out more before making a decision.
Er Ya: "Mother, which shop are you talking about?"
"Second Sister, you opened a branch store? Why didn't you tell me?" Sanya asked excitedly.
"It's open. We've been setting it up these past few days. It'll open on the day of the Beginning of Winter. I told you, but you weren't interested, so I was thinking of giving you a surprise." Er Ya looked at Ye Wan.
Ye Wan laughed, "You gave me a surprise."
The satisfaction Er Ya felt upon receiving Ye Wan's affirmation was indescribable.
I'm so happy, so happy I want to jump for joy.
The mother and her two daughters got into the carriage while talking, ignoring Liu Wenshu and Pei Zhichuan the whole time.
Liu Wenshu only looked away after the carriage had driven far away.
Pei Zhichuan scoffed, "The King of Xiang has a dream, but the Goddess has no heart. You're just being delusional."
Liu Wenshu's face was cold and stern. "None of your business!"
Pei Zhichuan sneered, his hand clenching tighter inside his sleeve, a lingering fragrance seemingly still present at the tip of his nose.
It wasn't the smell of cosmetics and spices from a shop, but rather an indescribable fruity aroma—fresh, delicate, and unforgettable.
"Young Master, you're back? Here are the account books from the past few days, take a look."
When Manager Chen saw Er Ya get off the carriage, he quickly made tea and brought out the account book.
Er Ya has been busy lately, so she's handed the shop over to Manager Chen.
He's probably not a seasoned shopkeeper who's been in business for decades; handing the shop over to him would be a piece of cake.
Er Ya didn't look at the ledger. "I trust you to do things right. My mother has something she wants to ask you."
"Madam, what are your orders?"
Manager Chen spoke respectfully.
Ye Wan asked directly, "Manager Chen, were there any distinguishing features when your grandson went missing? I'll send someone to look for him again."
She felt that Xiao Bao's eye shape seemed somewhat similar to Manager Chen's, but there are many people in the world who look alike, so it was better to ask for clarification and not let anyone get disappointed.
Speaking of this, Manager Chen's eyes welled up with tears. "My little grandson has a mole on his right leg."
Shopkeeper Chen's wife also came out, tears streaming down her face. "Yes, yes, yes, there's one not only on the right leg, but also on the sole of the foot, though it's so faint you can't see it unless you look closely."
Her son and daughter-in-law were away, so the elderly couple took care of their grandson, and she remembered it very clearly.
Ye Wan nodded, "Okay, if I find it, I will definitely tell you."
Ye Wan didn't stay long before she looked to see if Xiao Bao was still talking.
The elderly couple hugged each other and cried for a while before wiping away their tears.
"We, the old couple, have finally met the people we love."
"Yes, from now on, even if the boss wants my life, I'll give it to her. She saved my life in the first place."
...
...
Ye Wan did not go to find Xiao Bao immediately.
Instead, she asked Ye Hua to keep an eye out. Others aren't stupid; if she went to investigate openly and it turned out to be the opposite, she would only give them hope and then disappoint them.
Especially after losing a child, the elderly couple may not have any hope of continuing to live.
She went to the farm as usual, and today an elderly woman kindly invited her to stay for dinner. When she came out, it was already quite late.
Winter days are short and dark. When the carriage passed through the alley of West Street, someone blocked its way.
"Madam, there's a drunkard here. I'll go and get rid of him."
The driver was Lu Shui, whom Ye Wan had bought from a slave trader. She knew a little bit of martial arts and had been serving Ye Wan for the past six months.
Hui-gu is not here today; she has other things to attend to.
"No need, let's take a detour."
Ye Wan's voice came from inside the carriage.
No sooner had he finished speaking than Zhao Lu's voice was heard.
"Hey, what are you doing? Get out of here! Or I'll get rough!"
Ye Wan lifted the curtain.
The drunkard grinned, his yellow teeth gleaming, and drool practically dripped from his mouth as he looked at Ye Wan. "Hey, little lady, I haven't seen those two men around you today. You must be feeling really lonely. Let me have a good look at you."
"Your skin must be very white, let me touch it."
The drunkard grabbed the dew with his chin and pulled the person off the carriage.
"Ah—Madam, you must leave quickly."
The dewdrop brought tears to my eyes on the spot.
Ye Wan smiled slightly, "Okay, move aside, I'll get off the carriage first."
The drunkard rubbed his hands together, extremely excited.
He said that a slut who sleeps with men all day long can't stand being without a man.
"ah--"
A scream shattered the silence of the night on West Street.
When Pei Zhichuan arrived in a hurry, he saw Ye Wan standing there in the night.
Dressed in a blue robe, she resembled Chang'e descending from the moon.
Beneath his feet lay a man who could no longer utter a sound, surrounded by blood.
His heart suddenly started pounding uncontrollably.
...
...
"That's absolutely outrageous!"
When Lin Suying received the message, her face showed a rare expression of anger.
"Yiyi, what's wrong? What made you angry?"
King Jing heard these words as soon as he entered the room and quickly walked over.
"It's nothing." Lin Suyi stood up and composed herself.
Prince Jing grabbed her hand and said, "Don't lie to me. Why are you so angry? We've been together for so long, and I've never seen you change your expression before. You're so beautiful."
Lin Suyi rolled her eyes at him, and Prince Jing touched his nose, his heart bursting with joy.
The fairy was willing to descend to the mortal realm for him.
The bright moon hangs high, shining alone on me.
"Take a look." Lin Suying handed the message to Prince Jing.
When King Jing saw that people outside were actually gossiping about Ye Wan, his expression changed.
"These people have some nerve! My son is out there risking his life, and they dare to talk such nonsense about my daughter-in-law!"
Seeing that there were people outside, Lin Suyi tugged at his sleeve, "Your Highness, please lower your voice."
"Call me Jing Yi."
"Jing Yi".
"Why are you whispering? Someone! Go to Jingzhou City and spread the word that Ye Wan is someone I value highly. If anyone dares to gossip again, I will rip out their tongues and tear their mouths apart!"
When Dequan heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly went out to ask someone to do something. He specifically asked his godson to do it.
"Your Highness is mighty!" Lin Suyi exclaimed.
Prince Jing looked at her expectantly, "Is that all you have to say to praise me?"
Lin Suying blushed. "Your Highness, it's broad daylight, don't be silly."
The voices of the guards could be heard from outside.
"Your Highness, a letter has arrived from Jiangnan."
"..."
"Why didn't you come earlier or later? Just bring it in!"
