Chapter 430 Ning Bao is Lost
However, Ning Bao was never one to back down from trouble. Even though she knew this person had ill intentions, Ning Bao still deliberately gave her a sweet smile.
"Thank you, Auntie. You're so beautiful."
The proprietress smiled knowingly, "You're pretty too, and this young lady is so charming..."
Ning Bao and her two servants were led to the dressing room at the back by the proprietress. She gave the three girls a meaningful look before leaving.
Leng Wu was skilled in cooking, and her sense of smell was also very keen. Standing in the dressing room, Leng Wu frowned and lowered her voice.
"Miss, I feel like there's something wrong with the taste here."
Ning Bao was stunned for a moment.
"The taste is off?"
Ning Bao raised an eyebrow, recalling today's divination. Without making a sound, she took out three antidote pills from her storage talisman and handed one to Leng Xue and one to Leng Wu.
"Here are some antidote pills. Let's each take one. Hurry up and change your clothes. These are such beautiful clothes, we can wear them later without having to pay anything."
As Ning Bao spoke, she took off her outer garment and casually tossed it into her storage talisman.
The two little girls quickly helped Ningbao get dressed.
Ning Bao had just finished dressing when she heard a series of rustling footsteps. The master and servants exchanged glances and, in perfect unison, lay down on the ground pretending to be asleep.
Ning Bao sensed someone approaching them from a short distance away. Just then, a man's voice rang out.
"Grandma Hua, this time the goods are pretty good. I didn't expect there to be such good goods in this small county town."
This would be considered one of the best even in the capital.
Granny Hua nodded smugly.
"That's right, anything I, Granny Hua, make is always a masterpiece."
The man frowned.
"This chubby little girl looks a bit unusual. How could a girl from an ordinary family be raised to be so fair and plump?"
Could this be a child from a wealthy family?
We've almost finished assembling this batch of goods. Actually, these few items are optional, but we can't let them affect the entire batch.
If we alert the authorities, the children and women we're waiting to send away will be exposed. We can't afford to lose sight of the bigger picture for the sake of a small gain.
Granny Hua shook her head.
"It's alright, don't worry."
How could such a big shot come from our small county town?
I just checked, at most it's a small business owner. We've been in this business for so many years, we've even kidnapped the children of wealthy families.
"Fifth brother, the older you get, the less courageous you become."
The man called Fifth Brother sighed.
"You're absolutely right. I'm not young anymore, and I've made enough money. After this deal, I'm going to retire and go back to my hometown to live a good life."
My mother is still waiting for me to take care of her in her old age. After that, I'll get married, buy a few acres of land, and live a peaceful life for a few days.
"I think you should stop, Granny Hua. Your business is doing quite well; it's good to just run your business peacefully."
Hua Niang scoffed coldly.
"Ha! Who doesn't want a peaceful life?"
But once you join our line of work, it's hard to find a stable life.
It's not so easy to walk away unscathed now; even those in higher positions wouldn't agree, given that we know too much.
Sigh! Enough said, let's get rid of these guys quickly. We'll worry about the future later; for now, we can only take it one step at a time.
Then there was another rustling sound, and suddenly Ningbao felt someone pick her up and put her into a large box.
