Chapter 140 Meeting Zhou Yiru on the Road

This time, Qin Shu and her friends came to Lan County for the longest time in their recent business trips.

This time, they not only dealt with the disaster of Zhou Yiyang, but also purchased medicinal materials for the royal family and got to know the Li couple.

At this time, the end of the year is approaching. Although Qin Shu and her friends are very reluctant to leave the Li couple, and the Li family members are also reluctant to let the Qin family leave, there is still a large group of people in the Qin Mansion waiting for Qin Shu to return, and the affairs of all sizes for the New Year are piled up like a mountain, waiting for the head of the family to go back and deal with them.

Yesterday, when they were packing their luggage, they received a letter from Qin Qixuan.

In addition to the usual report on the recent affairs of the Qin Mansion, the letter also mentioned the affairs of Xiao Si and Xiao Wu.

It turned out that the fourth and fifth brothers had also sent back letters, saying that they had a surprise for them, but they didn't say what kind of surprise it was.

Qin Shu couldn't help but laugh when she read this.

"These two kids are so secretive, I don't know what kind of surprise it is."

Little Xixi was also happily biting her fingers beside her.

[If I tell my mother, what kind of surprise is it?]

Qin Shu thought about it and read the letter several times again, and then she continued to pack with satisfaction.

Even little Qin Xixi could see that Qin Shu was very happy about the return of her fourth and fifth brothers.

At dawn the next day, Qin Shu and her friends were ready to set off back to Beijing.

Qin Xixi was so happy the night before, but she started crying when it was time to leave.

Qin Shu knew that little Xixi was not a crybaby on weekdays, and she cried today only because she really regarded Zhang Wan'er as her close godmother.

[Wuwuwu, Wan'er's godmother is so good, I can't bear to be separated from Wan'er's godmother! ]

When Zhang Wan'er saw Qin Xixi looking at her with tears in her eyes, she couldn't help but feel soft in her heart, and went forward to hug Qin Xixi in her arms.

"Xixi can't bear to leave her godmother, and godmother can't bear to leave Xixi either!"

This was the first time she liked a child so much. If Xixi wasn't so extraordinary at first glance, and Xixi was so beautiful, she would have wanted to arrange a baby marriage for the child in her belly!

"Don't worry, little Xixi. When godmother gives birth to the baby, I will definitely bring your brother and sister to the capital to find you!"

Qin Xixi heard this and reluctantly let go of Zhang Wan'er's sleeve and returned to her mother's arms.

[You must let me see the little dumpling I gave you. Godmother Wan'er, don't forget Xixi, wuwuwu...]

Several people felt distressed and amused about this little crybaby.

However, the New Year is coming soon, and they have been in Lan County for a long time. It is obviously not appropriate to let Qin Xixi stay here to play alone.

Little Xixi herself knows these truths. She wiped the tears from her face vigorously, sat firmly in the carriage, and kept waving her little hands to Zhang Wan'er.

Qin Shu finally said goodbye to Zhang Wan'er with a smile, and several people finally set off back to the capital.

On the way back, the third brother was still sharing with Qin Shu some details of his negotiation with Zhou Yiyang.

"If Zhou Yiyang hadn't stopped moving forward, I would have been discovered by him. But I also put on my mask, which only aroused his suspicion."

Qin Shu sneered.

"He has never had any business sense, and the herbs are useless to him. It's a honor for him to get some money to solve the urgent problem."

"If Wanxing hadn't given them a lot of suggestions before, I'm afraid Zhou Yiyang wouldn't even be able to take out the money to maintain the Zhou family's livelihood, so even if we secretly robbed this batch of herbs, it's what Zhou Yiyang deserves."

The third brother nodded in agreement. He was about to say something when he heard the driver scream and the carriage was forced to brake and stop.

Qin Shu's face changed, and she quickly opened the front curtain and asked the driver.

"What happened?"

The driver also held his breath and pointed to the figure in front.

"I don't know where a person came out and stood on the road in front of me. If I hadn't reacted quickly, she would have been knocked away!"

Qin Shu was surprised. At such a fast speed, who dared to stop the car?

She followed the driver's eyes and looked forward, but saw an unexpected person. Qin Shu's face instantly became strange.

"Zhou Yiru, why are you here?"

Could it be that she heard the news of their departure and came here to blackmail?

Zhou Yiru was wearing a white dress, but it was torn everywhere and her face was dirty, as if she had been running for a long time.

Her eyes were originally dull, but when she saw Qin Shu's face, she suddenly felt like she saw a savior.

Zhou Yirou rushed towards Qin Shu, but was blocked by the guards.

"Save me, please, save me!"

Zhou Yirou's face turned pale. Before Qin Shu could ask clearly, a burly man chased after her. When Zhou Yirou saw him, her face instantly became worse.

"Save me, I don't want to be caught by him!"

Hearing this, the burly man wanted to scold Zhou Yirou angrily, but he saw that Qin Shu's carriage was surrounded by guards, all of whom were tall and strong, and they were very well guarded.

Two fists cannot beat four hands. Even though he was strong and powerful, he had to be cautious.

"I advise you not to meddle in other people's business. This is our lady. She ran away without the consent of my master. This is our family affair. Don't disobey my advice and get yourself into trouble!"

Although the man spoke firmly, his gesture of being ready to run away at any time had already made him lose a lot of momentum.

Seeing this, Zhou Yirou also understood that the burly man was afraid. She couldn't help but feel that she was finally saved. She stood up and looked at him provocatively.

Qin Xixi shook her head when she saw Zhou Yirou's actions.

[Zhou Yirou is so naive. How could she think that her mother would save her?]

She didn't think that if she did something for her mother, her mother would forgive her betrayal over the years!

Qin Shu was naturally not such a generous person.

Ever since Zhou Yirou rejected her suggestion that day, she never cared about Zhou Yirou's life or death.

These days, she only knew that Zhou Yirou had taken away all the valuables of the Zhou family. She didn't know where she had gone. It looked like she was not doing well.

Qin Shu saw Zhou Yirou looking at her with pleading eyes, but suddenly sneered.

"Oh, since it's a family matter, it's really inconvenient for us to disturb her. Please take the lady back, brother, and don't let her disturb other people's carriages and delay their journey."

Hearing this, Zhou Yirou's smile, which she thought was saved, froze on her face.

She shouted in disbelief.

"Qin Shu, what are you talking about? Don't you know me? You beast!"

Seeing this, the big man hurried forward and dragged Zhou Yirou away.

Looking at Zhou Yirou and their figures getting farther and farther away, Qin Shu's eyes were gloomy.

Zhou Yirou also changed from loud cursing to quietly begging for mercy.
