Ren Yaohua actually trusted Ren Yaoqi's judgment, but she didn't say it directly. She just said calmly: "It's unfair, so what? I think this maid has bad intentions. Keeping her will only cause trouble for the Lei family's inner house. Besides, I just made a suggestion. It's not for me to decide what to do."
Ren Yaoqi said nothing more.
The wet nurse and her men searched the entire area but couldn't find Lei Pan'er. Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua then asked the remaining maids and servants to disperse and look for her.
When they returned to the pond, only Zhou Wen was waiting there.
Seeing Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua coming back, Zhou Wen hurriedly came over and said, "I heard that Miss Lei is missing. Are you guys okay?"
Ren Yaohua frowned: "What can we do? We are just helping to find someone. Where are Miss Zhou and my ninth sister?"
Zhou Wen hurriedly said, "I saw the Lei family was looking for someone everywhere. I was afraid that this area was not safe, so I asked Brother Fang to escort Miss Ren Jiu and my sister away first. I will stay here and wait for you to come back. By the way, what happened to the Lei family? How could a healthy child disappear without a trace?"
Ren Yaoqi shook his head and said, "Maybe the child was naughty and hid somewhere."
At this moment, the little maid who had brought them into the manor ran over and said that Lei Pan'er had been found. Master Lei was afraid that they would worry, so he sent her to tell them so that they could rest assured.
At the same time, maids such as Wujing who helped to look for people also came back one after another.
Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua both breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this.
"Where did you find him? Is he okay?"
The maid's face looked a little strange when she heard this: "We found it in an abandoned dry well in the backyard. The young lady had some skin scraped off her head and some scratches on her body. The master examined her and fortunately, there were no broken bones."
Ren Yaohua gasped: "How did he fall into the dry well?"
The maidservant was also a little puzzled. "I don't know either. No one usually goes to that backyard, and I don't know how the young lady got out. Fortunately, those maids are very familiar with the farm, so they were able to find the young lady so quickly. Our master said that today is really thanks to the two young ladies, but now is the mourning period for our lady, so it's not appropriate to go to the manor to express our gratitude in a grand manner. I will definitely thank you when I have the chance."
Ren Yaoqi smiled and said, "It's good that we've found the person. There's no need to thank us. We already get along well with Pan'er, and we didn't help out today just for the Lei family's sake. If you want to thank us, it should be after Pan'er recovers from her injuries."
The maid said a few more nice words before saying goodbye and leaving.
Zhou Wen, who had been listening nearby, was surprised and said, "How could a perfectly healthy child fall into their own well? It's a shame the Lei family's maids and servants had to come out and look for him."
Ren Yaohua and Ren Yaoqi looked at each other and said nothing.
Since Lei Pan'er was fine, Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua also felt relieved and followed Zhou Wen back to the Zhou family's farm.
Although Ren Yaoying and Fang Shuzhou were not there, Zhou Wen did not change his talkative nature. He stood beside the carriage and talked to Ren Yaohua and Ren Yaoqi. He did not care even though he did not get much response.
Speaking of which, despite his young age, Zhou Wen was incredibly considerate, eloquent, and able to speak in a way that made it impossible to dislike him. Ren Yaoqi felt that in a few years, he would surely become a sought-after and romantic young man in Yunyang City.
When I returned to Zhou's house, Liu and Mrs. Zhou had been waiting for a long time.
When they heard about the disappearance of Miss Lei, they asked a few questions. When they heard that she was finally found in the well, they all sighed.
Zhou Rong curled her lips and said, "I was wondering why you disappeared as soon as you left. You made us wait for so long. Turns out you went to be good guys."
Ren Yaoying said softly, "So the third and fifth sisters know someone from the Lei family?"
Ren Yaohua was too lazy to engage with them and just casually responded with a few words. Ren Yaoqi sat aside, acting dull and uncommunicative, drinking tea and not participating.
After having lunch at the Zhou family's farm, Liu took them back to the city. This chapter has been read (please click on the next chapter to continue reading!)
