The two entered the guest room, Li Yan closed the door, and then asked her quickly: "How is it, grandma, have you seen the real prefect?"
Shi Chunfen shook his head and said frankly: "I can't see it. The secret room is locked with a chain. You can't even think about entering."
"That's a little better." Li Yan breathed a sigh of relief, "I haven't seen it anyway, so let's not meddle in other people's business, right?"
Shi Chunquin also fell silent. It was a rare moment for her to be brave. She didn't expect it to go so poorly. Maybe it was destined by God that she shouldn't meddle in other people's business. "Okay." She compromised: "Anyway, we are leaving Shuzhou soon.
Just stop meddling in other people's affairs."
Seeing that she was still reasonable, Li Yan became happy and said, "This is my good grandma."
The two of them rested in the guest room all afternoon. When it was almost time for dinner, Ren Shu sent someone to invite them over. After dinner, they should have no contact with Ren Shu anymore, so Shi Chun Equinox's expression was obvious.
Much more relaxed.
"How's it going, eldest mistress, are you okay resting in the guest room?" Ren Shu said with a smile.
Shi Chunfen nodded lightly and said with a smile: "Thanks to your understanding, I feel much better now."
"As long as you regain your energy." Ren Shu looked at her meaningfully, "otherwise I won't be able to do many things."
Shi Chunquin was slightly startled, and soon had an ominous premonition in his heart, "For example?"
"For example, we still need to continue to resettle the victims." Ren Shu smiled and quickly looked away, "Although you are about to leave Shuzhou, the follow-up arrangements for the victims still need your help from the Chu family. I am right.
wrong?"
Shi Chunfen breathed a sigh of relief and said quickly: "This is natural."
Seeing that the two of them were having a good conversation, Weng Zhenhai was full of joy, "I can't believe that in just a few days, so many things happened in Shuzhou. I thought it was an endless fight, but in the end it turned out to be a fight.
A friend."
"Yes." Chu Run said lightly: "I never expected to be able to make a friend like Mr. Ren."
Seeing that the afternoon had passed and the two of them were still complimenting Ren Shu, Shi Chunquin couldn't help but rolled his eyes aside and said nothing.
Strange to say, according to Ren Shu's current help to them, she should have no objection to Ren Shu, but maybe it was because his previous attitude towards women was too Menglang, and she never had a favorable impression of him when she thought of him.
I thought that I would help the real governor, maybe he could bring order to the chaos and save a good official.
This idea grew crazily in her mind, so much so that she had just decided to give up in the afternoon, but now it came back to life again. She glanced at Ren Shu and suddenly said: "Master Ren seems to have planted a lot of flower beds in the mansion. I don't know.
Can I go check it out before it’s served?”
"Of course." Ren Shu said with a smile: "It's rare for a young lady to be so elegant, so naturally I won't mind."
When Shi Chunfen stood up, she made a gesture of leaving. She glanced at Weng Zhenhai specifically and gave him a look. Weng Zhenhai understood and immediately stood up and said, "I'll go with you."
The two of them both left their seats, and Chu Run could only stay where he was and drink with Ren Shu.
Seeing him looking at the backs of the two people with complicated expressions, Ren Shu couldn't help but tease: "Why haven't your hall sister-in-law and you been intimate with the young man from Caobang?"
He deliberately said it so ambiguously, causing Chu Run's cheeks to darken, "A woman's reputation cannot be used casually as a joke. Please, Master Ren, please don't say similar words in the future."
"Really?" Ren Shu was a little funny, "When I teased your wife, I didn't see you so excited. Why now..."
"Now that Master Ren and I are considered friends, I can naturally express my feelings openly." Chu Run said indifferently: "Unless Master Ren still wants to use his airs and block the mouths of ordinary people like before, ordinary people will have nothing to say.
It can be said."
Seeing his excited look, Ren Shu smiled and said lightly: "It doesn't matter, I won't argue with you."
While the two were talking, Shi Chunfen had already led Weng Zhenhai to the flower garden in the distance. Weng Zhenhai stood beside her and asked curiously: "I wonder why my wife called me here?"
Shi Chunquin raised his head and looked at him and asked, "Can you pick the lock?"
If she remembered correctly, lockpicking was one of the necessary skills for these martial arts people who were accustomed to traveling around the world, but she didn't know if Weng Zhenhai could do it.
Weng Zhenhai looked at her inexplicably, but nodded honestly, "Of course I will."
He grew up in the market since he was a child. He is good at eating, drinking, prostitution and gambling. Lock-picking is just the most basic skill. How could he not know it?
"Then can you do something for me?" Shi Chunfen looked at him solemnly.
He straightened up unconsciously and said, "Of course, Madam-in-law, please tell me."
Shi Chunfen hooked her finger at him, and after he lowered his head, she whispered a few words in his ear, which made Weng Zhenhai's eyes widen, "Mrs. Sister-in-law, you..."
Shi Chunfen looked at him solemnly, "This matter is of great importance, please Mr. Weng, be careful."
Seeing that she dared to leave such a big matter to him, Weng Zhenhai hesitated for a moment, then quickly nodded and said: "Okay, I will help you this time."
After the two reached an agreement, Shi Chunfen quickly returned to the wine table, while Weng Zhenhai quickly slipped away to the backyard on the pretext of going to the hut.
The thing Shi Chunfen entrusted to him was very simple. It was nothing more than asking him to go to his bedroom in the backyard and open the secret room while Ren Shu was still at the wine table to see if the real Shuzhou prefect was locked inside. Although Weng Zhenhai
I didn’t understand the reason, but seeing that Shi Chun Equinox was so solemn about the matter, I readily agreed.
When the spring equinox returned to the wine table, Ren Shu raised his eyes and looked at her, with a pair of peach blossom eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, "How can you show someone a flower and send someone to the latrine?"
Shi Chunfen lowered his head and smiled lightly, and said lightly: "Maybe he drank too much with Mr. Ren in the afternoon, and he just wanted to be convenient at this time."
"That's the best." Ren Shu picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp, "I'm afraid that someone has other agendas and will affect my interest."
Hearing what he said, Shi Chunfen's expression suddenly changed, and he pretended to be calm and said, "I don't quite understand what Mr. Ren means."
Chu Run also heard something in his words. Taking another look at Shi Chunfen's solemn expression, he had already guessed most of it. He quickly smoothed things over and said, "What else can it mean? Master Ren must be afraid that Mr. Weng is not here and there is no one."
Let’s drink with him. It’s a pity that my drinking capacity is too bad, otherwise I would definitely make Master Ren happy.”
Seeing that he answered the question too quickly, Ren Shu smiled and pointedly said: "You know that your drinking capacity is too bad, so you should practice hard instead of making excuses every time to dampen my interest."
Chu Run quickly lowered his head and said, "The villain knows."
Although the other party did not continue to ask about Weng Zhenhai's matter, Shi Chunfen's heart still sank. Ren Shu had already hinted to her twice. There was no way it was a coincidence. Could it be that he had already discovered something?
