Mistress of the Mysterious Inn - C235

Little Qing gave a brilliant smile, turned around and continued walking forward: “Then tomorrow you should find someone else to come by. Who would bring up the marriage proposal themselves?

Bi Zhenye was overjoyed, and chased after his: “Who should I invite, is my grandmother okay?”

Qing’er laughed. “It’s such a hot day, how can it alarm the elderly? I should go greet Grandmother. Why don’t you hire a colleague or a senior from the Board of Justice?” “It’s just a formality, and besides, you can be our matchmaker. It’s such a good thing, I’m sure they’ll be in a hurry to help you.”

Bi Zhenye memorized everything and protected Little Qing as he walked forward. But since it was so late at night, he might not necessarily bring the other person to his own home. Suddenly, an idea struck him, and he said: “Little Qing, if you don’t mind, how about we go to the night market for supper? “However, the people coming and going from that place are all people from the market. I’m afraid that it would scare you. However, the food there is very tasty. I’m sure that you’ve never eaten it before.”

Shen Qing laughed and asked: How did you ever have the chance to go to that place in the past?

Bi Zhenye said embarrassedly: “It’s just a recent matter. After I established my own sect, I am much more free now.

Shen Qing said: “Since that’s the case, let me bring you over. I must be more familiar with you than you are.”

Bi Zhenye was startled, but Shen Qing actually took the initiative to take his hand and walk forward. She heard her say with a smile that her sister-in-law the Great First Princess was the strongest in the capital, and as her sister-in-law’s follower, she had seen many things in the capital. Naturally, outsiders would definitely not know about this.

In the distance, Master Shenwang was riding a horse with his wife in his arms. Both of them had complex expressions as they watched their daughter leave with the person she liked, Master Shenwang turned around and brought his wife home. He smiled and said: “After our daughter gets married, let’s go for a walk, too.

“What about the court?”

“The emperor can handle it himself, but the youngsters can handle it for themselves.”

Xiaowan held his daughter and wandered in the corridor. Ling Chaofeng held his son and walked in circles around the house, so of course Little Pei was sleeping soundly in his bedroom.

They had long since agreed that they didn’t need the Aunt Zhang’s help at night. Otherwise, with their entire family surrounding them, exhausted, who could they rely on in the day.

When Xiaowan reached the stairs, he just happened to see the door of the guest room downstairs open. The young woman stood in front of the door and looked at Xiaowan.

“Did I wake you?” The Xiaowan said apologetically, “I will coax them to sleep later. I am truly sorry.”

“Can I hug her? I … I’m really good at coaxing children to sleep.” She looked at Xiaowan and the child in her arms with envy and said sincerely, “Can I hug you please?”

Xiaowan was after all a mother, so how could a mother easily give her child to someone she did not know? Furthermore, it was already midnight. She immediately shook her head and said gently: “You should go to sleep early, didn’t you faint today? Your body is more important.”

In the house, when Ling Chaofeng heard the Xiaowan speak, he naturally came out to take a look. Seeing the young woman standing downstairs, he walked over.

When the woman saw that the man had come, she became a bit more timid and left after thanking them.

“Are you alright?” Ling Chaofeng asked the Xiaowan.

“It’s fine, she said she wanted to hug Little Fei, I didn’t agree.” Xiaowan saw that Little Qi was fast asleep in her husband’s embrace and said with gratitude, “Little Qi is such a good child.”

They returned to the room and put down their son. Ling Chaofeng took her daughter to coax her, because her father’s arms were definitely more powerful as he lied down comfortably in his mother’s embrace. Ling Chaofeng had hugged Little Little Fei for a while before she fell asleep.

The Xiaowan said with a smile: “Little sister is just a little bit pampered, in the future I will always imagine how she will be spoiled by you big brothers.”

However, Ling Chaofeng was unwilling to let go of his daughter. Like how the Xiaowan was protecting Little Pei, he said indifferently, “Girls need to be pampered, and you.”

Xiaowan laughed and jumped up to hang her on her husband’s body. The two of them embraced each other and returned to the bed, but they were too tired and had no time to think about the matters regarding Yun Yu.

The two little fellows actually didn’t wake up early. When Xiaowan woke up, her chest was already swollen and stiff, but luckily her daughter had also woken up, which was just about the right time to help Xiaowan solve her pain.

Ling Chaofeng went downstairs to get hot water for the Xiaowan. Just as he walked down the stairs, he saw the long haired lady rushing out of her room, and shouted: “Little Claw, where are you?”

Aunt Zhang raised his head and asked angrily: “What are you shouting about so early in the morning for?”

He did not know where the little lady went or where she ran off to, but she was nowhere to be seen upstairs or downstairs. The woman was determined to flip through the entire inn, and the Aunt Zhang said angrily: “You really think too much of yourself.

The woman insisted, “Don’t you have children that need to be fed? How can you raise two children? Did you leave my daughter-in-law as a wet nurse? “If you hand her over to me and refuse to hand her over, then give me a hundred taels of silver. I’ll send her to a rich family to be their wet nurse, and they will only give me a hundred taels of silver.”

Sure enough, he was going to send his daughter-in-law away to be a wet nurse. Aunt Zhang guessed right, whether his grandson could eat his fill or not, and even treat his daughter-in-law as a money lender. Moreover, which family would spend a hundred silver taels to invite a wet nurse?

“Go to the office!” Uncle Biao walked over from behind with a pig slaughtering knife in his hand. The blade of the knife was still stained with blood.

The woman was naturally intimidated. She sized up the inn once more, thinking that her daughter-in-law had probably run away. If she went to chase after her now, perhaps she might be able to catch up.

Xiaowan heard the commotion upstairs and thought about the girl standing at the foot of the stairs last night. She must have missed her child so much that she would want to hug him when she saw his baby.

There were countless pitiful women in the world, so why were women the ones who used their lives to reproduce, and the pitiful and lowly women too?

Xiaowan said to the little girl in her arms: “Little Fei, mother will definitely protect you well and won’t let anyone bully you.”

The little kid who had just eaten his fill was contented as he looked at his mother with a smile. Naturally, his brother in the room woke up, and immediately started crying as well.

Downstairs, Ling Chaofeng took some hot water to go upstairs. He took a glance at his own inn and said to Aunt Zhang: “Search again, maybe, you really are hiding somewhere.”

The Aunt Zhang agreed. When Ling Chaofeng returned to his room, Susu also came, and the two of them followed him. One blocked the stairs, and the other searched upstairs.

In fact, she didn’t run or hide anywhere else, probably because she knew her mother-in-law. She hid under the bed, shivering when she was dragged out, and her clothes were soaked.

“Save me …” “Save my child …” The little woman sobbed without a sound. She was extremely pitiful.

After figuring out the ins and outs of the matter, Susu came upstairs to tell the Xiaowan that the little married woman came from a faraway place and was going to a merchant’s house in Li Prefecture to be a wet nurse.

In fact, she had been there for two months, and because she missed her children too much, she had snuck home, been beaten up by her mother-in-law, and had to be sent back by boat.

The most pitiful thing was that when she ran home this time to take a look at her child, she discovered that her daughter had actually been sold by her mother-in-law. Her mother-in-law and her husband stubbornly refused to tell her where her child had gone and wanted her to treat it as though it had died.

“She said she doesn’t have a name, and is ranked third in her family. The villagers call her Third Lady.” Susu sighed, “It’s really pitiful, if my sister was sold, I would probably kill someone.”

The Xiaowan sighed and asked Susu: “Then what do we do now?”

Susu said: “She’s begging us to temporarily take her in, don’t make her mother find her, she wants to hide away for a while before thinking of a way to find her own daughter.”

“But she doesn’t have any leads, her Daqi is so huge, where can she find her child?” The Xiaowan said with a pained heart, “Her man is really not worth anything. His own flesh and blood can be sold at any time. This kind of man is not worthy of children.”

Susu said: “The laws of our Daqi do not allow people to kidnap or sell children, but in the countryside, there are no laws.

The Xiaowan said with a startled look: “Isn’t Ershan at the Ministry Of Justice? Let’s write a letter to him and let him think of a way, alright?”

Susu asked: “Help Third Lady find a child?”

Xiaowan shook her head, “They are helping all the women who are mothers. Somewhere else, someone must have had their flesh and blood stolen. Now that I have become a mother, I really can’t bear to see things like this anymore, catching each one of them, what do you think? ”

Susu laughed: “Tell the shopkeeper that you need him to write a letter to little brother. Ershan will listen to his big brother the most, it might work.”
