"Something sounds wrong. I'm afraid something might happen to Lan Niang." Chen Mingrong still cared about his first wife, Chen Sulan.
Xiao Cui bit her lip and was about to pretend to have a stomachache.
The nanny beside Old Madam Chen came over and said, "Master, the old madam said that you and Concubine Cui should go back to Cui Garden to rest. I have an old servant watching over you here, so everything will be fine!"
Chen Mingrong frowned.
Xiao Cui tugged at his sleeve and whispered softly, "Master, if you're really worried about my sister, then let's wait here for a while and go in later, okay? I'm scared!"
Xiao Cui said this while supporting her stomach.
When Chen Mingrong saw her belly, he compromised.
The wailing and screaming inside continued for a long time before gradually stopping weakly.
After a while.
Yang Zhao came out with his men.
When she reached the gate of the courtyard, she stopped and looked at Chen Mingrong, but actually she was looking at Xiao Cui.
Xiao Cui also looked at her.
Their eyes met.
After just one glance, Yang Zhao withdrew his gaze and left without looking back.
Chen Mingrong frowned.
Not even saying hello, how rude! !
Xiao Cui's eyes flickered, she tugged at Chen Mingrong's sleeve and said softly, "Master, let's go in and see my sister."
Chen Mingrong then remembered and hurried into the house.
"Is it really just her hand that was injured? No other part of her body?" Old Madam Chen was still a little unconvinced when she heard the nanny's report. She had heard from the servants that Shen Sulan screamed miserably.
Mammy smiled and said, "That's what it looks like."
You don’t know about the places you can’t see, but there are so many ways to do things in the backyard without spilling blood.
How could Old Madam Chen not understand, but she showed no sympathy: "It's what he deserves."
"Look at her. She could have saved the little girl from the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion, but not only did she not help, she even gave directions to the criminals."
"If Madam Shen hadn't promised me that the Zhenbei Marquisate wouldn't vent its anger on our Chen family, our Chen family would have been terribly harmed by her. She's truly a troublemaker."
Old Madam Chen became furious just thinking about it.
At this time...
A maid came in hurriedly: "Old Madam, it's bad, Madam pushed Concubine Cui down, and kicked Concubine Cui in the stomach..."
"What!"
Old Madam Chen's expression changed drastically.
…
…
"Madam, you haven't eaten for the whole day. Please eat something." In the carriage, Dong Shuang handed over a plate of pastries.
Yang Zhao, however, had no appetite: "Leave it there, I'm not hungry yet."
Dong Shuang wanted to persuade him, but Yang Zhao said sullenly, "Dong Shuang, I think I did something wrong."
"When my sister-in-law left, I should have taken Xier to live with me instead of leaving her under the watchful eyes of someone like Mrs. Wei. If I had brought Xier to live with me, this wouldn't have happened. Xier wouldn't have been lost. It's my fault."
"I was wrong from the beginning."
Dong Shuang could sense her master's stubbornness and quickly said, "Madam, you can't think like that. You were already married into the Shen family at that time. Not to mention what the Shen family would think, even our old lady wouldn't agree to you taking Miss Xier to the Shen family..."
"I was wrong!"
"It was me who lost Xier, it was me who lost her..." Yang Zhao, who had been expressionless all day, buried his face deeply in his hands with a wry smile, and the warm moisture wet his palms.
She didn't dare to think about what Xier had suffered.
Self-blame, regret, and fear almost filled her entire chest, making her feel like even breathing was being cut by a knife.
She is afraid!
She was afraid that she would not be able to find Xier.
She was afraid that Xier would...
Dong Shuang had never seen her master like this before, and she didn't care about the master-servant rules and hugged her tightly: "Madam, you can't think like this. Miss Xier will be fine, she will be fine."
"Don't do this, I'm scared!"
Winter Frost cried.
Crying and sobbing.
…
"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Yang Huaijin looked at Dong Shuang, whose eyes were swollen like walnuts, and her sister, whose eyes were still slightly red. He thought something had happened and his heart tightened.
"fine!"
At this time, Yang Zhao had adjusted his mood.
She glanced at the people behind Yang Huaijin. There were at least thirty or forty of them. They were the heads of some of the most famous restaurants, jewelry shops, etc. in the capital.
In normal times.
Any one of these leaders would be a respected figure in the business world.
But at this moment, everyone saluted respectfully towards Yang Zhao who entered the room, and shouted in unison: "Miss."
If the Shen family saw this scene, they would probably be so shocked that their eyes would pop out of their heads.
After Yang Zhao entered the house, he directly asked the maid to hand them the prepared portraits: "No matter what method you use or what price you pay, I want to know the whereabouts of these two people before sunset tomorrow."
The portrait was drawn based on the oral description of the old woman and the maid.
After everyone took the portrait and looked at it, they looked at each other in confusion, "Miss, is there any price?"
"Yes! At any price."
Everyone immediately understood that there would be some big waves in the capital tonight.
After the boss left.
Yang Zhaocai turned his gaze to Yang Huaijin: "I asked you to investigate the missing child before. What did you find out?"
"I found a lot of things!"
Yang Huaijin didn't waste any more time and handed over a booklet. "These are the information of children who have disappeared in the past few months. I found that almost all of them are girls, and some of them are the daughters of officials in Beijing."
"Look at this, sister."
