Chapter 283 Entering the Examination Room
Qin Huiyin got up early in the morning to make breakfast. She cooked millet porridge for the two people who had been drinking, and then made the soup dumplings that Song Ruize liked to eat.
Seeing that Tang Yichen seemed fine, Xue Weifeng patted him on the shoulder and said, "Brother, don't drink anymore. I'm worried that you'll be captured by a goblin."
Tang Yichen took his hand away from his shoulder and said calmly, "Nonsense."
"There were quite a few young and beautiful girls at the book club yesterday, and they all stared at you. Of course, there were quite a few who were attracted to me as well." Xue Weifeng said arrogantly, "By the way, I heard that Miss Gong already has a childhood sweetheart. You should be careful when you interact with her."
"She has a childhood marriage, what does it have to do with me?" Tang Yichen frowned, his eyes full of confusion. "She and I just exchanged two poems and got to know each other for a while."
Qin Huiyin came out with the soup dumplings.
Tang Yichen lowered his voice and said, "Don't talk nonsense in front of Yinyin."
Xue Weifeng's eyes were fixed on the soup dumplings, how could he hear anything else?
Song Ruize came in from outside, followed by Jiang Qibin and Chen Yong.
Qin Huiyin sat down only after seeing him coming.
Song Ruize sat down next to her.
"Sister Huiyin, the buns you made are so delicious. No, Brother Ze, I won't let you have them. I want to eat them first as a sign of respect." Jiang Qibin picked up a soup dumpling.
"We're going to escort a caravan in the neighboring city later and will be back in a few days. Do you want to go with me?" Song Ruize asked.
Before Qin Huiyin could say anything, Jiang Qibin said, "Go ahead, sister Huiyin. There are many fun places in the neighboring city. Come with us to relax."
"Go!" Xue Weifeng also said, "We're going to the examination room soon and won't be able to get out for a few days. Instead of being bored here, why not go out with them to get some fresh air?"
Qin Huiyin looked at Tang Yichen and said, "Brother, I'll take you to the examination room and then go play."
Tang Yichen smiled faintly: "Okay, just have fun, I will study hard for the exam."
"Don't put too much pressure on yourself, just do your best. We all know that you are very capable!" Qin Huiyin thought of his situation last night and comforted him.
"I know."
Half an hour later, Qin Huiyin sat in the carriage and watched Tang Yichen and Xue Weifeng enter the examination room smoothly.
Song Ruize said: "Sit down, we are leaving."
The carriage set off, and Qin Huiyin embarked on a short journey of a few days. Their carriage was in front, the escort agency's carriage was behind, and Jiang Qibin and Chen Yong were the rear guard.
It was Qin Huiyin's first time to participate in the escort mission. At first, she was very curious, thinking that there would always be robbers blocking the road in TV dramas. When she mentioned this, Jiang Qibin laughed so hard. When Jiang Qibin had almost finished laughing, he told her that this road had been prepared long ago. As long as the flag of their escort agency was hung up, all kinds of bandits would have to avoid it.
We got through the journey smoothly and delivered the goods smoothly.
Jiang Qibin and Chen Yong were free to do whatever they wanted in the next few days, and they were only told to meet at the inn in five days. Song Ruize took Qin Huiyin to eat, drink and have fun, and their life was more carefree than that of a god.
Ever since Qin Huiyin came to this strange space, she has been either making money or on the way to make money. Her mind is full of business and life, and she has never been as relaxed as she has been in the past few days.
Song Ruize bought a wreath from the roadside and put it on Qin Huiyin's head.
"Young lady, young master, do you want a portrait?" The old scholar next to him said with a smile, "It's only ten cents."
Qin Huiyin said to the old man, "Wait a moment."
She also bought a wreath from a street vendor, ran over and put it on Song Ruize's head, then turned back and said to the old man, "Now it's okay, paint!"
The old man stroked his beard and pointed to the stool in front of him with a smile: "Please sit here and wait for a moment."
Song Ruize let her do whatever she wanted and played along with her. The two of them sat there, waiting for the old man to say it was done before they stood up.
"Let me see." Qin Huiyin took the portrait and said to Song Ruize, "Brother, look, the master's painting skills are really superb."
"Yeah, it looks good."
The old man said modestly: "The main thing is that people are good-looking, no matter how they are painted, they will look good."
Song Ruize paid one or two taels of silver.
"Too many." The old man was terrified.
"Your paintings are worth the price."
"Thank you, young master."
Qin Huiyin put the painting away and followed Song Ruize to eat. What the two of them didn't notice was that a pair of eyes were staring at them, and their gazes stayed on Qin Huiyin.
While Song Ruize was ordering, Qin Huiyin went to the toilet. When she came out of the toilet, an arm stretched out from behind to cover her mouth. She tried to scream, and her consciousness became increasingly blurred.
"Where's your toilet, man?"
"It's in the backyard. It won't take long to get there."
Song Ruize waited for a while, but Qin Huiyin didn't come back. He was worried that she was not feeling well, so he went to the toilet to check. He asked a woman passing by to go in and help him check. The woman came out and said, "Young Master, there is no one inside."
Song Ruize frowned and returned to the lobby, but he did not see Qin Huiyin. He had a bad feeling in his heart.
"Boss, help me find someone." Song Ruize took out a silver ingot. "My sister is missing in your place. If you find her, the silver is yours. If you don't find her, I will destroy your place."
The shopkeeper immediately asked his clerk to search the store.
"Boss, I seemed to see someone carrying something out just now. It was a bit big, like a person." A waiter said tremblingly.
"What kind of person?" Song Ruize asked, "Give me detailed clues."
The guy just took a quick look and didn't take it seriously because he was too busy. Now when he thought about it, he could only imagine what the man was wearing, and whether he was tall, short, fat, or thin.
Song Ruize asked his assistant to send him a letter to a certain place. Not long after, Jiang Qibin and Chen Yong arrived with dozens of people.
"Brother Ze, what's going on?"
"Yinyin is missing." Song Ruize said, "Someone saw a few suspicious people carrying a bag. There was someone inside, who might be Yinyin."
"Who dares to arrest that little girl?"
"Don't talk nonsense, find someone quickly. The longer Huiyin stays in someone else's hands, the more danger she will be in." Chen Yong said, "Brother Ze, don't worry, I will call the local tyrants out to question them and see who is doing this kind of head-losing business."
The shopkeeper said, "Every once in a while a beautiful girl disappears here. Your sister must be very pretty, about fifteen years old. If you can't find any clues, you can ask the government. There may be some clues there."
Song Ruize rushed out immediately.
As soon as he reached the door, he saw the old man in the portrait. He hesitated for a moment and then asked, "Did you see any suspicious people carrying a big bag out?"
"Yes. They went that way." The old man said, "Sir, is it possible that the girl who came with you is missing?"
"How do you know?"
"Every once in a while a girl goes missing here. It's no use reporting it to the police. The government can't find out the truth."
