If this Zhu Ruomei is really the Zhu Ruomei she had heard of in her previous life, then he must have some real abilities, otherwise Xiao Jingxi, who is known for his "meticulous planning", would not have handed over his retreat to him.
I just wonder if Zhu Ruomei can still have the same future as he did in his previous life after she interfered so much in this life? Many things depend on fate. If her interference caused him to live a mediocre life, that would be a real pity.
Thinking this in his heart, Ren Yaoqi smiled and nodded, "In that case, you can go back first. However, this matter will probably take a day or two. Can your mother arrange it?"
"I'll rush back to Yunyang City and tell my family. Don't worry, Fifth Sister."
"If there is anything at home that I can help with, please let Sister Yuan come and tell me." Ren Yaoqi instructed.
Zhu Ruomei thanked him again solemnly and then said goodbye and left the house.
Ren Yaoqi sat alone in the Yiran Pavilion for a while, seemingly thinking about something or in a daze. The maids outside the pavilion wanted to come in but didn't dare to when they saw her.
Until Ren Yaoqi gently stroked the hem of her skirt, stood up, and said gently: "The wind is blowing, go back."
*********
That afternoon, Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua were both in Li's room listening to Nanny Zhou talk to them about how to manage a household. Li was sitting on the kang next to them making soft boots for Ren Shimin.
Xier suddenly ran in from outside.
Nanny Zhou frowned and scolded with a stern face: "Why are you in such a hurry? Where did you learn the rules?"
Xi hurriedly said: "I just heard the gatehouse maid Han family, the Han family started a quarrel."
When Mrs. Li heard that it was about the Han family, she immediately looked up and asked in surprise, "What? The Han family? What is the Han family quarreling about?"
Nanny Zhou knew that Li was very satisfied with the marriage with the Han family, so she didn't bother to teach the maid the rules and just looked at Xier, waiting for her next words.
"At noon today, about a dozen or so people came from Jizhou and headed straight for the Han family's house. The Han family has been in our town for a year now, and they've always kept a low profile, with no guests coming before. So everyone was a little surprised. Furthermore, those people were making a lot of noise along the way, so some curious people followed them to watch the fun."
"The Han family's steward invited the twenty or so people into the Han Mansion and told them they were relatives from Jizhou. But not long after they entered, a commotion erupted, and it was quite loud. Even the old man and Mr. Han, who were out, were hurriedly called back."
Because Li did not let the sisters Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua go out, they just sat there and listened.
Ren Yaohua frowned upon hearing this and asked, "Since they are from Jizhou's hometown and were invited in by the Han family's housekeeper, they must be relatives. Why did the Han family have such a big fight with their relatives from their hometown?"
Xier said, "Some people heard what those Jizhou people said earlier. It seems that Old Man Han secretly sold some of the Han family's property, and the Han family members were kept in the dark before. Now that they know about it, they are here to cause trouble."
Li placed the half-finished shoe sole in her hand into the embroidery basket beside her and asked in surprise, "How could this happen?"
"Don't the Han family know how much property the Han family has? They only come forward to speak out after being sold out?" Nanny Zhou was also a little surprised.
