Daughter-in-law of the Marquis Family - C223

Gu Yun missed his target and was not at home.

Although it was within expectations, he still came to try his luck. Actually, even if Zou Ling was here, he didn’t know what to do or what to do. Even if she could, he didn’t have the position to negotiate with her, and coercion and enticement were even more useless. In their hands, Xi was the only one willing to compromise.

Since he couldn’t see the light of it in the past, and he couldn’t see the light of it in the future either, he didn’t believe that they would be able to cover the sky with one hand, and that as long as they didn’t use their Huainan, they would be able to find a way to do it.

Gu Yun did not delay and returned to the Feng’s. Zhao Zhang and Feng Dong had already started their investigation secretly, Zhao Zhang knew that their master was able to keep his mouth shut and when he met with the Madam, he would panic, so he immediately took action after he left.

Even a fool could tell that something had happened, and Feng Dong could be considered to be warmhearted. Although Huainan was not his territory, he still had some connections, and if he could use some people to mobilize, there would be traces of him. After all, he was not from the capital city, so it wouldn’t take long for him to search around from the south to the north.

Master, the person was lost in the neighboring shop. I was chatting with a few other shops when I finally found one that caught my eye. It was probably the lady who described the person. There weren’t many people at the time, so he just stared a few times, but he didn’t remember coming out.

Didn’t come out? Gu Yun frowned, if he did not come out, then it would be a problem with the cloth farm, “Are you sure you did not expose yourself?

Zhao Zhang nodded his head, “It’s no problem to ask, but I think so. Master, the Madam is a cautious person, to be able to take her away soundlessly, there must be a need to use medicine, and it must be extremely effective medicine, or else she would definitely leave behind some clues, or just alert the people around, if you want a pregnant woman who’s in a coma to come out without making any sound, and Bu Zhuang Zi is not far from the Feng’s. If anyone sees that, it would be for nothing.

“Go and secretly tie up the cloth farm owner for me.” Gu Yun’s face did not contain any good intentions, “Previously, I heard Liu Tong say that this cloth farm had been opened for a long time, and the small business done by the ancestors was not likely to be their hiding place. I think it was because they received benefits or were forced to do so due to being threatened, as long as they can pry open their mouths, it will be fine.

Without batting an eyelid, he looked for the cloth farm owner and Feng Dong took the initiative to step out, “Let me do it, you guys act according to your plans.”

Gu Yun was truly grateful towards him, “Boss Feng, you have no need to thank me at all.”

“You’re welcome, Master Gu.”

Feng Dong clasped his hands together with Gu Yun and left, then turned and aimlessly walked into the neighboring cloth manor. The cloth manor’s owner was busy right now, and his shoulders were drooped down while pretended to look at the cloth manor curiously. He had just moved in not long ago, and this was the first time he had come in.

“Oh, isn’t this the Boss Feng next door? What wind blew you over?” Shopkeeper Chen was a man in his forties. He looked like an ordinary person, and he was one of those middle-aged men that were left in a pile of people. He had been in the small business for his entire life, and upon seeing an owner like Feng’s, he couldn’t help but feel a little overwhelmed by it.

Feng Dong laughed politely, “Shopkeeper Chen, your business is not bad.”

“Sigh, I can’t do it. It’s enough for a whole family to eat and drink. Is this small business even worth business in your eyes? You’ve come for quite a need. Come, come, come. Please take a seat in your room and have a cup of tea.”

“Shopkeeper Chen, no need to be so polite. I just moved here not long ago, and haven’t been able to come over to greet you. From now on, everyone will help each other. I will have to trouble you.” Feng Dong followed him into the rear hall, “I’m still not familiar with Huainan, there are many things that I need to rely on you for.”

“I’ve always heard of Feng’s, but I didn’t expect you to be such a kind person. I dare not say anything else, but I am extremely familiar with Huainan, and my ancestors have already been here for generations. If you have anything to ask, feel free to ask.”

Feng Dong laughed: How embarrassing, how about this, Shopkeeper Chen, in a while let’s go have a drink and talk. It’s almost time for dinner, I just happen to have some things to ask you, I’ll just treat it as a casual conversation to make friends, what do you think?

Aiyo, look. This… “You are too polite. How can I do this? I should be the host. I am truly embarrassed.

Shopkeeper Chen was so excited that he had nowhere to put his hand. Feng Dong walked over and patted his shoulder, “What’s wrong with that? As a friend, it’s normal to have a meal.

That was true. Shopkeeper Chen nodded. “That’s fine, I’ll go and give my instructions now. Please wait for a moment.”

Feng Dong laughed, “What are you trying to say, I see that you can still turn around even if you lose. You, the shopkeeper, have to let go of your hands and work for the people under you, not only do you have to let go, you also have to learn to trust people, the servants have no doubts, right?

Shopkeeper Chen felt that he must have had some luck today, because all the good things happened to him. He was so excited that he didn’t know what to do. “You’re right, you’re right. Listen to Jun. Let’s go drink and talk.”

Shopkeeper Chen led Feng Dong and walked through the back door. Feng Dong paid attention to the people around him as he walked, the cloth manor was indeed not big, after passing through the rear hall, they arrived at the back street, there were only one or two small houses, and all of them looked small, locking them was not difficult, but Feng Dong felt that it was not very likely. For one thing, he felt that the Mrs. Gu was taken away by someone, and it seemed like it was on purpose to lock him up until Gu Yun came over.

Moreover, he felt that this Shopkeeper Chen didn’t seem to have a shrewd person like him. There really was a living person hiding here, so he might not be able to be so calm and collected.

Coming out from the back of the cloth farm, they would be able to find a place to eat after passing through another street, but when the two of them just walked out of the back street of the cloth farm, they met with problems, or it would be more accurate to say that Shopkeeper Chen was in trouble, Zhao Zhang had sent a few people over, and when they saw Shopkeeper Chen, he immediately grabbed his shoulder, bringing him over, “Brother, let’s talk for a bit.”

“Who are you?!” Feng Dong looked terrified, “Let go of shopkeeper Chen, or else I will report the news to the officials!”

“Brother, if you know what’s good for you, don’t make a sound. Come with us and treat it as accompanying your friend. As long as he’s willing to cooperate, we’ll release the two of you after we’re done here. Let’s go.”

This time, Shopkeeper Chen did not feel that he had gotten lucky. He felt that if he lost too much of his luck, it would backfire, and if he stepped too far, it would create trouble, and even implicate Boss Feng, what would happen in the future? Boss Feng would definitely think that he was a bad person who instigated trouble, and it would be so easy for him to climb up to a higher branch!

They walked into a small alley with their arms around each other’s shoulders. There was an inconspicuous small house inside, and Shopkeeper Chen had just boasted about how familiar he was with this place. At this moment, he realized that he really had never noticed there was such a room here.

“Brothers, big brother, why did you bring me here? If you have anything to say, let’s sit down and talk. How about I invite the few of you to drink …”

“Cut the crap!” If the polite threat from before was replaced, it would become a real threat. “I’m suing you, don’t play dumb with us. If you dare to lie, I’ll immediately burn down your store!”

“No, no, no, no, please don’t! If you have something to say, then we’ll talk about it, we’ll talk about it …”

“Listen up, is there anyone who has come looking for you today? Let’s talk after we’ve decided whether they want to give you money or threaten you. Just tell me!”

Shopkeeper Chen swallowed his saliva as his eyes sparkled. “About that, there are a lot of people looking for me. What you said …”

One of them squatted down and asked him, “I say, do you not understand human speech? Don’t play around with me. If you dare say another word, I’ll cut off your tongue!”

“Spare me, spare me. It’s not that I don’t want to say it, it’s that I don’t dare to say it. They threatened me. If I say anything about it, I’ll annihilate my entire family. I …” Just spare me, there’s nothing I can do! ”

“Destroy your entire family?” One of them sneered, “Your family’s lives are worth some money. Say it, how much benefits did they give you? As long as you are willing to answer for them, we will give them to you twice. If you don’t tell us, it won’t be so simple as destroying your entire family.”

“I said, can’t you let my family go? I don’t want the silver, and I don’t want the silver either, but someone came to find me today, saying that his people are blocking my front door, and I need a little help. If you can give me a hundred silver coins in the future, I won’t be able to do anything about it,” Shopkeeper Chen said.

“Get to the point!”

“The point is, the point is like this, just a woman with a big belly came to our shop to buy fabric, and she fainted before even going out. I saw that no one was following her, so I kindly invited her into the back hall to rest, and also helped her get a doctor or something, but as soon as I entered the back hall, the woman who was supporting her took out a knife to threaten me and asked me to cooperate. She just told them to go through the back door, not to tell others, I thought it was quite simple, so I agreed.”

“What does that woman look like?!” Go out in that direction and tell me what you saw. ”

Manager Chen racked his brains to recall what she looked like. “Just an ordinary woman. The only way out is to the west. There’s only one exit, and that’s right!” Shopkeeper Chen smacked his forehead, “I remember now. That woman has a fragrance, and some of her clothes are also a bit gorgeous. You know that in the past, we rarely had such a person in our cloth farm, and I was also surprised that it looked like a brothel, right!” “It’s the brothel!
