Chapter 294: There was a note underneath the teacup that Wen Qiang took.
"I know your mind must be in a mess today, but can we give each other some time to calm down and talk this over?"
She sighed deeply, tears welling up in her moist eyes.
"I'm...very confused right now. I'm worried I've done something bad, and I'm also worried you don't believe me. Zong Jun, if you can remember, have I ever hurt you? Have I ever been mean to you?"
She knew that Zong Jun was a soft-hearted person, so she used her weakness to set up a trap and dragged out time until she arrived at an inn dozens of miles outside the city.
This is the only inn within a ten-mile radius where you can stay overnight. Runing City is a major commercial city, and this inn is located next to the trade road, making it convenient for many passers-by.
Seeing that it was getting dark, Wen Qiang took him inside: "Let's rest for a night and have something to eat, okay?"
After they entered, an old woman greeted them with a smile.
He took out the best tea and gave Wen Qiang a meaningful look: "Sir, this is the new tea we just got in our store. Please try it."
There was a note underneath the teacup that Wen Qiang took.
Zong Jun didn't notice. He just sniffed the tea cautiously, put down the cup and continued asking.
"Qiang'er, at this point, I only have one question, and I hope you can tell me now."
"who I am."
Wen Qiang smiled, but before she could say anything, a voice suddenly came from outside!
"You were once a Hanlin editor, and you are the eldest son of the Kyoto merchant family, Ruan Qingsong! You are also my nephew!"
As her aunt kicked the door, she made a domineering appearance.
He lowered his eyes and looked at Wen Qiang with a look of disgust on his face: "You are not the husband that this liar is talking about."
The eldest aunt glanced at him, her eyes flashing with fierceness.
When Wen Qiang saw these uninvited guests, her face suddenly changed. She immediately protected Zong Jun behind her and looked at her aunt and others vigilantly.
"Who are you?!"
The eldest aunt laughed out loud: "Wasn't what I said just now clear enough?"
"But you, you went to great lengths to harm our Song'er and made him look like this, and even lied to him that he was your husband! How could a lady like you be so shameless?"
"Stop talking nonsense!"
Wen Qiang roared angrily, holding onto Zong Jun tightly, and said, "Zong Jun, we haven't even met these people. You must not listen to their slander. They..."
However, before he could finish his words, Zong Jun had already seen Ruan Mian behind his aunt.
He suddenly remembered that Ruan Mian was the one who mistook him for her brother that day.
When he was confused, Ruan Mian also called him.
"elder brother."
This extremely familiar name seemed to suddenly ring in his eyes and linger!
Although Ruan Qingsong still didn't remember anything, the word "brother" gave him a strong sense of familiarity.
Seeing this, Wen Qiang suddenly looked over with a fierce look.
At this moment, he signaled to the old woman upstairs.
Soon the old woman came up with good wine and delicious food, and forced my aunt to sit down.
"Guests, please sit down and discuss everything! You see, it's not easy to do business in my inn. Don't scare those guests away."
My aunt is also a businesswoman, and considering the old woman's difficult life, she softened her attitude a bit.
"In that case, let's sit down and have a good talk. I can also tell my nephew how much his parents, wife, and children miss him."
My aunt lifted her skirt and sat upright, but Meixi, who was standing beside her, noticed that something was wrong with the plate of meat.
Just as her aunt stood up to pour the wine, she immediately stopped her aunt's hand, frowned and shook her head slightly.
The old woman noticed this and said with a smile, "What do you mean, young lady? Are you afraid that I might poison the food and wine?"
Mei Xi sneered and quickly told Ruan Mian and her aunt in a low voice, "That side dish is not just any meat."
Hearing this, my aunt's face suddenly turned gloomy, but before she could speak, the old woman suddenly couldn't sit still anymore.
Suddenly, several tall and strong men rushed out from the room next door. They were covered in flesh, holding kitchen knives tightly, and chopped at my aunt without hesitation!
Mei Xi was quick-witted and quick-handed. She quickly pulled her aunt aside, drew the dagger from her sleeve, and stabbed the man in front of her in the chest with a clean and decisive move.
The old woman suddenly put on a new look, her expression twisted. With a fierce look on her face, she raised the cold, gleaming kitchen knife and said sinisterly, "I gave you monk meat to eat, but you didn't eat it, and instead you touched my people!"
"Now that you've landed in my shop, don't even think about leaving!"
When Ruan Mian saw a few more people rushing towards him, his eyes became fierce and he immediately touched the jade bracelet. He didn't want to waste any time on these evil people!
However, she caught a glimpse of her brother rushing towards her! She immediately withdrew her hand, fearing that the beast she summoned would scare or hurt him.
"Walk!"
Zong Jun kicked the person who was running towards her away, and pushed Ruan Mian away, asking him to leave quickly.
At this moment, my aunt also picked up a kitchen knife that someone had dropped on the ground, and she did not hesitate to chop the person who rushed towards her with the knife!
These days in Guancheng are not a leisurely one.
And she also studied some hidden weapons.
She rolled up her sleeves and shot out the sharp darts tied to her arms!
Suddenly, a miserable wail was heard, and the two sides had already started fighting each other.
The old woman and other thieves obviously didn't expect that these few women were capable of fighting against them!
He also hid hidden weapons and injured many people.
The old woman was completely enraged and sent out another flare.
Seeing this, the aunt ran to Ruan Mian urgently and said, "Mian Mian! There's no other way. Get some help!"
The other side had a large number of people and was well prepared. It was obvious that the three women were no match for them. Even though Mei Xi had the strength to fight ten people alone, it was difficult for her to stop the attack of so many people.
At this moment, Ruan Mian couldn't care less. Taking advantage of the chaos, she touched the jade bracelet!
Summon the beast instantly!
Before anyone could react, they heard a wild beast roar, and the big white tiger pounced with its bloody mouth wide open.
Everyone's faces changed drastically. There was no need for Ruan Mian and the others to do much next. This big tiger alone was enough to wipe out more than a dozen people.
The eldest aunt's face lit up with joy, and she didn't forget to touch the big guy's butt and encouraged him: "Good tiger! I'll buy you some meat!"
After saying this, he immediately left the shady shop with Zong Jun, Ruan Mian and the others without hesitation. Wen Qiang had already disappeared.
As soon as the aunt recalled the fight between the two sides, she knew what kind of person Wen Qiang was.
"This shady shop is most likely in cahoots with Wen Qiang. When that old woman attacked just now, Wen Qiang took advantage of the chaos and escaped!"
After saying that, he looked at Zong Jun breathlessly, and said with a slightly calmer mood, "Song'er, are you okay?"
Seeing his slightly unfamiliar look, the aunt reacted, patted his shoulder earnestly, and spoke slowly.
"You've suffered so much. When you left Wu Heng and headed to Xingjia to look for Mian Mian, none of us thought you would fall into the hands of the Wen family."
