This time he returned to Beijing not only for Yunhe's affairs, but also to discuss the Licheng matter with his father. The business of Licheng should be handed over to Uncle Xian, and Uncle Xian's son will take care of it in the future. He wants to travel around
Let's go and open a few shops in other places. As for the business in the capital, I will leave it to the second brother in the future. Uncle Xian has taught the second brother a lot, so I believe there will be no problem.
He should be allowed to return to the capital to practice and take over in the future.
Because I had to go to the capital in the afternoon, I stayed in the main courtyard to rest. Then I learned that the young master was going out in the afternoon, so he went to the small kitchen to make cakes for the young master. Because he had just eaten, he should not be able to eat lunch, so he collapsed
Why not prepare some pastries.
When the young master of the Zhao family arrived at the pier, Nanfeng had already arrived. The steward said to the young master of the Zhao family: "Master, Mr. Bai has come over and is treating the wounds of the girls on the boat."
"I'll go up and take a look." Young Master Zhao asked.
Before the young master of the Zhao family boarded the boat, he asked Da Yi to stay below. He was worried that the girls would be frightened when they woke up, so there were no men on the boat at all. Mr. Nanfeng was a doctor, so it didn't matter. He only went up to ask the maids who stayed behind.
The situation of the girls.
After the young master of the Zhao family went up, he took the maid and asked, "How are the girls doing?"
"The girls all have scars from being tied up with ropes. They are not life-threatening." the maid said.
"Where is Master Nanfeng?" the young master of the Zhao family asked.
"Master Nanfeng sees that the girls are fine and plans to move the girls together after you come over," the maid said.
"The girls are awake, right?" said the young master of the Zhao family.
"Yes, I have already woken up a long time ago. Because I was frightened, if I asked them anything, they were unwilling to say anything." said the maid.
After the maid finished speaking, the young master of the Zhao family saw the figure of Mr. Nanfeng. Mr. Nanfeng said, "You are here?"
"Sir, after I heard that the girls were frightened, they were unwilling to speak. We need to send them home as soon as possible. How can we not speak?" said the young master of the Zhao family.
"I have a way to make them talk. Let's take them back first." Master Nanfeng said.
"Will they obey us and leave together now?" said the young master of the Zhao family.
"Although the girls were frightened, they seemed to have lost their souls. We can only take them back first, and we cannot leave them on the boat." Nanfeng said.
Mr. Nanfeng asked his maid to arrange for the girls to disembark. Maybe the second master’s subordinates had beaten and scolded them before, so they did not dare to resist when they got off the boat. Mr. Nanfeng prepared several carriages. After they got on the carriage, they immediately
Departed for Yixiang Pavilion.
After arriving at Yixiang Pavilion, the carriage stopped directly in the back alley of Yixiang Pavilion. The people from Yixiang Pavilion met them in the backyard, and soon more than twenty people were received at Yixiang Pavilion.
Ruyan had already arranged a room for them, and was worried that they would be scared, so she sent them to a big room for the time being.
They were locked in a box along the way. When they woke up, they found that they were all on the boat. The girls were trembling with fear. They didn’t know who the people on the boat were, so they followed them into the carriage. After entering the house, they thought they
After being sold to a brothel, the timid boy started sobbing.
At this time, there was a girl behind Nanfeng, and Nanfeng took this girl into the house.
"Sister Yan, do you still remember me?" The girl ran over and asked.
The person named Sister Yan heard someone calling her name, looked up at the girl carefully, and asked in shock: "You, you were captured too?"
"I was not caught by them, Sister Yan. The bad guys who wanted to sell you have been caught. In a few days, the young master will arrange to send you home," the girl said.
"Go home? Are you telling the truth?" Miss Yan asked.
"Why are you lying to me? When we were on the ship, I was worried that you would be frightened, so all the people taking care of you were girls. You stay here to have a good rest. Your injuries are not serious. I will send you back when arrangements are made.
" said the girl.
"We can go home? Is this true?" the other girls said excitedly.
"Of course it's true," the girl said
.
"You arrange for them to freshen up, and then prepare some food. They must be very hungry these days, so let them eat first." Mr. Nanfeng said to the girl.
"Yes, sir." the girl said.
The young master of the Zhao family was waiting for Nanfeng to come back on the third floor. He thought that Nanfeng would ask the girls, but he didn't expect to come back so soon.
"You're back so soon?" the young master of the Zhao family asked.
"They must have been hungry and tired during this period. The food was drugged, and they feel weak after eating. However, they cannot go without eating forever. Let them adjust first, and then ask again when they feel energetic."
Nanfeng said.
"Master Nanfeng is still thoughtful," said the young master of the Zhao family.
"You go back home to make arrangements first. Just bring Luo Ying over during lunch." Nanfeng said.
"I know." The young master of the Zhao family said.
After entering the house, the young master of the Zhao family did not go back to the main courtyard, but went directly to Yun He's courtyard.
"I heard that the young master is very busy today, why do you have time to come here?" Yun He asked.
"I'll take you to see your mother later," said the young master of the Zhao family.
"Why is it so sudden? What happened?" Yun He asked in surprise.
"Second Master Luo has been arrested, and the Luo family's business will be returned to the daughter of the former head of the Luo family." said the young master of the Zhao family.
"Is this true? So mom doesn't have to hide anymore?" Yun He said excitedly.
"I plan to take my mother to the capital. It won't be convenient for you to meet in Licheng. But I don't know if my mother will agree." The young master of the Zhao family said.
In the future, when Yun He recognizes his parents, he will naturally not be able to visit his mother in Licheng often. It is better to bring his mother to the capital, where they can meet at any time. However, he is a little worried that his mother will not go back.
Mother only cares about Yun He and is worried that what happened to Yun He in Lichun Court will be spread out, so she will definitely not want to return to the capital.
"I will persuade her carefully. She has nurtured me and I cannot leave her alone in Licheng." Yun He said.
"Let's set off now. After we arrive, I have other things to do." said the young master of the Zhao family.
"Okay." Yun He said.
Yun He was a little excited. After changing his clothes, he sat in front of the bronze mirror and felt at a loss. Knowing that Yun He was nervous, the maid smiled and stepped forward to comb Yun He's hair again, and then went out with the young master of the Zhao family.
.
"Master, where did you hide your mother?" Yun He asked curiously.
"It's hidden in my private courtyard. This is the only place that the second master doesn't know about. Of course, my mother is not the only one who lives in the courtyard." Young Master Zhao asked.
"Could it be that the young master's four wives live in another courtyard?" Yun He asked.
"Your guess is correct. People outside think they are my concubines." said the young master of the Zhao family.
Yun He looked puzzled. Upon seeing this, the young master of the Zhao family continued: "One of the girls is the legitimate daughter of the Luo family. As for the other girls, I saw how pitiful they were, so I took them back to the Zhao family."
"So, the young master came to Licheng because of the Luo family's affairs?" Yun He asked.
"The original plan was to deal with the Luo family's affairs, but your appearance was an accident. I didn't expect that Mr. Luo would find out about my preferences and then send women to my backyard. I really had no choice but to take advantage of it. Luo
It is inconvenient for Ying to live in another courtyard, and it is easy for Master Luo to find out. Therefore, I can only arrange for them to live elsewhere." said the young master of the Zhao family.
"I understand." Yun He said.
It turns out that the young master of the Zhao family is different from what they thought. He does not like to look for flowers and people like the rumors. Ever since they moved into the other house, the young master of the Zhao family has always respected them very much. Even if he knew the second master's purpose, he did not treat them badly.
They have no evil thoughts at all.
After arriving at the other courtyard, grandma opened the door. When she saw that the person coming was the young master, she asked: "Master, you haven't been here for a while."
"Is the lady here?" the young master asked.
"Master
,Are you confused? The ladies are all in the shop." Mammy said.
The young master of the Zhao family walked towards the courtyard with Yun He and said to Mammy, "Mammy, is that lady okay?"
"It's much better than the past few days, but I still sigh secretly when no one is around," said the young master of the Zhao family.
"We want to see her, mama, do your work," said the young master of the Zhao family.
"yes."
Mammy arranged for the maid to take the young master of the Zhao family into the courtyard. After the young master of the Zhao family and Yun He entered the door, the maid stood outside the door and said: "Madam, our young master wants to see you."
I only heard my mother say: "I don't want to see anyone."
Tears welled up in Yun He's eyes, and he said softly: "Mom, it's me, I'm Yun He."
After hearing Yun He's voice, her mother jumped down from the couch excitedly, opened the door and saw that Yun He was standing in the yard.
"Yunhe, why are you here? If you come here at this time, won't you be discovered by the second master?" Mom asked nervously.
"Mom, don't worry. The second master has been arrested. Otherwise, why would the young master bring me here?" Yun He said.
"Caught? What happened? All the officials in Licheng City were bribed by the second master. Who dares to arrest the second master?" Mom asked.
"Of course it's the young master." Yun He said.
"You guys go into the house and talk. I have to leave beforehand. Yunhe can have dinner here in the evening and then go back. If you don't want to leave and stay, that's fine," said the young master of the Zhao family.
"Yes, Master." Yun He said.
The young master of the Zhao family gave some instructions to his grandma before leaving, then got into the carriage and went to the rouge shop.
"Yunhe, come here and let me see. Why have you lost so much weight after not seeing her for a long time?" said her mother.
"Mom has also lost weight. Are you feeling better? I heard that you passed away. I was frightened." Yun He said.
"At that time, I thought I was going to die like this. In fact, I was not sad. On the contrary, I was very happy, because only in this way can you completely get rid of the second master. I didn't expect that when I woke up, there would be a person in this courtyard.
The girl told me that it was arranged by Young Master Zhao. So, I will live here with peace of mind, waiting to meet you." Mom asked.
"Mom, the second master thought it was me who did it, and secretly observed my every move." Yun He said.
"Second Master is suspicious by nature and doesn't trust anyone. If something happens to me suddenly, he will naturally suspect you." Mom said.
"Fortunately, the second master has been captured, so we don't have to worry anymore." Yun He said.
"Why was the second master taken away?" Mom asked doubtfully.
"The second master has always had business dealings with Mr. Zhao? Mr. Zhao has also been very busy these days, and it seems to be related to the second master. Because when he came back just now, he told me that the second master was arrested." Yun He said.
