"Fifth sister, your shoes are wet. You'd better go back and let the servants look for it." A maid came forward and said.
Ren Yaoqi looked at the brand new pair of pink embroidered shoes under her skirt and was wondering whether to send more people out to look for him, when Xiangqin suddenly pointed ahead and said, "Sister, look, it's my uncle."
Ren Yaoqi looked up immediately. Sure enough, he saw two more people approaching in the rain not far away. The one in front was a short-statured man in his mid-twenties, wearing a tattered bamboo hat he'd found somewhere. He wasn't wearing a straw raincoat, so he was soaked from the neck down. His coat, of an indecipherable color, was a complete misfit. The sleeves were rolled up several times, making him look like a mischievous child who'd slipped into adult clothes.
Following behind him was an ordinary black-faced man who looked like an iron tower. Li You often joked that it was a waste for him to play the role of a martial artist and that he should play the role of the black-faced Bao Gong.
The man walking behind saw Ren Yaoqi first, and he hurried forward and whispered a few words in the ear of the man in front. The man behind looked up and saw Ren Yaoqi. He was stunned for a moment and suddenly covered his face with his sleeves and turned to run. However, his sleeves were pulled up, and he was frantically pulling them down, looking embarrassed and funny.
Xiangqin on the side covered her mouth and laughed.
Ren Yaoqi helplessly called out to the man who was dragging his followers away: "Uncle, I have seen you!"
Li You stopped walking in frustration. When Ren Yaoqi approached, he could hear him turning his back and lecturing his followers: "...I told you to eat less on a daily basis! Look at how big you've grown. Every time I try to turn around and run gracefully, I get recognized. You're a sitting duck! From now on, you can only eat two bowls of rice per meal... no... one bowl! Do you hear me?"
The man who had always been submissive lowered his head helplessly and replied "yes".
Li You rolled his eyes and shouted even louder: "Look at me, which niece of mine is this? The fierce one or the one who likes to look twice like her father?"
Ren Yaoqi looked at the dark-faced man with a mixture of laughter and tears as he looked at her seriously again, then replied, "Sir, it's 'the one who likes to look twice.'"
Ren Yaoqi: “…”
Li You breathed a sigh of relief, turned around, and was startled when he saw Ren Yaoqi standing behind him. He glared at his follower: "He's right behind me, why didn't you warn me?"
Seeing that it was still raining, Ren Yaoqi didn't bother with him and just asked, "Uncle, has he seen my third sister?" Although she could hear from the conversation between the master and servant that it was unlikely that Li You had seen Ren Yaohua.
As expected, Li You shook his head, and the water on his hat splashed on Ren Yaoqi's face: "I didn't see it, and I would have run away if I had seen it."
Ren Yaoqi wiped the water droplets from her face helplessly. "What about Dongsheng? Did you only take Dongsheng and Xiasheng out with you today?"
Li You was busy rolling up his long sleeves when he heard this. "I don't know. Dongsheng went to help me distract him earlier... Dongsheng went to do something. That guy looks smart, but he's stupid. He hasn't come back for so long, leaving me out in the rain! I'll see how I'll teach him a lesson when he comes back!"
When Ren Yaoqi heard this, his face turned pale and he was stunned and speechless.
If Dongsheng was the one who disappeared this time, would Ren Yaohua, who went to look for him but never returned, also disappear?
Li You also noticed that Ren Yaoqi's face looked strange, and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong with you?"
Ren Yaoqi looked up. He glanced at Xia Sheng behind Li You, thought for a moment, and said, "My sister saw Dong Sheng, so she chased after him, but she's been gone for over an hour and hasn't come back yet."
Li You was shocked: "What? Yaksha went to chase Dongsheng? She, she. She, she won't be caught by those people?" The latter sentence was asked to Xia Sheng beside him.
Ren Yaoqi caught on to his words and asked anxiously, "Who are you? Why did they arrest my sister?"
