Xu Yi hadn't gone home yet, but Wang Sanbao and the others went after him to the Xu family's house.
Seeing Wang Chunni being pulled off the carriage, Wang Sanbao rushed over immediately.
"Where is Xu Genshan? I want to see Xu Genshan."
The gatekeeper stopped him outside, saying, "My master is not here."
"Not here?" Wang Sanbao craned his neck to look inside. "Where is the person in charge of the Xu family? Call him out here for me."
"I'm going to have a good look into why the Xu family is bullying my girl like this."
"Let me tell you, don't think I'm afraid of you just because your Xu family is rich. I'm not afraid."
Wang Sanbao and Niu Daya stood with their hands on their hips, cursing loudly at the door, just like the scoundrels they were in their youth.
The guard who brought Wang Chunni back handed her over to the gatekeeper and left. The gatekeeper wanted to lead her inside, but Niu Daya blocked their way.

“If the Xu family doesn’t come out and give me an explanation, they can forget about taking my daughter away today.”
The couple is just trying to cause trouble here. Given the Xu family's current status, it's impossible for them to take their daughter away, but they can try to get some money through her.
That's why the couple followed us here.
Wang Chunni's face was extremely sour. "Da Cai, send them back immediately. Don't let them cause trouble here."
The servants and guards of the Xu family are not to be trifled with; if they are really provoked, they can really throw someone out of the village.
Wang Dacai also wanted to go up and persuade them to leave, but the Wang couple, blinded by greed, refused to go.
Instead of the Xu family members, they encountered Gao Laosan, the Xu family's bodyguard.
He remembered that it was that brat Wang Dacai who insisted on taking Wang Chunni away, and now that she's been returned, he still dares to cause trouble at the Xu residence.
"Come on, drag these troublemakers away!" At Gao Laosan's command, the guards waiting at the door rushed out and dragged the people towards the intersection with little effort.
These men were strong and powerful; Wang Sanbao and Niu Daya were no match for them. In the blink of an eye, they were dragged away.

Niu Daya kept calling out, "Chunni, Chunni, save your mother, save your mother."
Wang Chunni herself is barely able to take care of herself, how can she save her?
Besides, even if he could save her, he wouldn't want to.
Now, Wang Chunni is preoccupied with only one thing: Fu Man'er's true identity.
She couldn't wait to see Fu Man'er. "I want to see Fu Man'er. Quick, take me to see her."
The maid pushed Wang Chunni forward, saying, "Our young lady is busy and doesn't have time to see you."
"I have something to tell her, something important. You need to take me to see her right away." Wang Chunni suddenly thought that she might be able to use this as a bargaining chip to get Fu Man'er to let her go.
The maid ignored her completely, pushed her into the woodshed and locked her up, no matter how much Wang Chunni screamed.
After returning from the Song residence, Xu Yi locked himself in his study and didn't even come out for dinner.
After dinner, Fu Man'er wanted to go play with Lu Sheng and asked Xu Yi, but Xu Yi didn't want to go either.

"Brother is so busy, then I'll go by myself." Fu Man'er thought Xu Yi was still busy with official business, so she led Shuangxi to Lu Sheng's house.
She had barely stepped out of the Xu family's gate when Xu Yi summoned the Xu family elders together.
Then he recounted what had happened that day, and also shared his conjectures.
The room fell silent for a long time, and even Ma Hong, who was usually the most talkative, did not say a word.
Finally, Liu Fang spoke first, "Perhaps Yi'er is seeing things."
“Definitely,” Ma Hong quickly chimed in. “Look at all of you brothers in our family, none of you look like your father or mother at first glance.”
The Xu brothers are like that; they don't resemble anyone else very obviously. You only realize they look like their father here and their mother there when you look closely.
Xu Yi also thought he was seeing things, but with such similar appearances, he didn't know what excuse to give everyone to tell them that they had no relationship.
Xu Yi's silence undoubtedly tells everyone that it's impossible for him to be seeing things.
Moreover, Xu Yi has always been a calm and collected person, and he would never talk about capturing Feng Ying at home.

"I never imagined that our little place could be connected with such important people in the capital."
This is perhaps what everyone is most worried about; they had previously imagined what kind of people Fu Man'er's biological parents would be.
Perhaps they were from a poor family who couldn't afford to raise a child, so they sent her away.
It's also possible that some families didn't like girls and were reluctant to feed them, feeling it was a waste of food.
It's also possible that they were just an ordinary family who were careless and let their child get lost, or that the child was abducted.
But after thinking it over and over, I never imagined that he would be a noble person in the capital.
Leaving aside the power and status of the Marquis behind Consort Ru in the capital, the mere fact that Governor Song Kangcheng was a figure that would make the Xu family feel suffocated.
If they really find Man'er and take her away, what else can the Xu family do?
Thinking about this, Xu Yi felt like he couldn't breathe.
"Let's not tell Man'er about this yet," Xu Yi said, drawing everyone's attention.

“You can’t hide it,” Xu Genshan said in a deep voice, “especially since you’re now in charge of investigating this matter.”
Xu Yi felt like he had taken on a hot potato after agreeing to Song Kangcheng's request.
His face clearly showed his frustration. "What should we do now?" He thought for a long time but couldn't come up with a good solution.
Xu Genshu patted his nephew on the shoulder, "Don't be anxious, you have to trust Man'er too."
Man'er would not follow her mother just because of her noble status; the Xu family had no doubt about that.
"Just as Yi'er said, we shouldn't tell Man'er about this yet, since Madam will be staying here for a while longer."
"Try to keep Man'er from going out during this period, so as not to be seen by the Song family."
"And Yi'er, while we have this time, do you think you can find out how Madam Ru's child was lost back then, and why she is only now starting to look for her child after so many years?"
Xu Genshu's words were like a wake-up call for Xu Yi. He was so anxious that he didn't think carefully about the reasons behind it.
"Okay, I understand." Xu Yi nodded. It wouldn't be too late to tell Man'er after he understood everything clearly.
Then they will know whether Madam Ru's search for the child is a blessing or a curse for Man'er.
The people inside were still talking, perhaps because Xu Yi was too affected by his emotions today.
He didn't even notice the figure quietly leaving through the doorway.
