Chapter 432 – She’s back in one piece.
by Jessie@AFNCCWei Qingwan, who had followed the duo in, also knelt down together.
Old Master Wei and Old Lady Wei looked at the three people kneeling in front of them and realized that something was wrong.
“Where’s Ruo’er? Why didn’t Ruo’er come with you?” The old madam asked hurriedly.
Wei Yi Feng and Wei Yi Peng lowered their heads too heartily to speak.
“I asked you guys a question? Where did Ruo’er go?” The old madam’s tone was urgent.
“Quickly tell me, what wrongdoings have you committed?!” The old master slammed his hand then the table.
Wei Yi Feng trembled as he told the story of how he lost Wei Ruo: “Today …… the streets were crowded and bustling, and we …… we accidentally got lost with Ruo’er’s sister… …”
“Asshole!” The old master clapped his hands, his face full of sulks, “You two big men, with maids and guards around, how could you make a good person disappear?”
Wei Yi Feng and Wei Yi Peng’s heads hung even lower.
Wei Qingwan, on the other hand, knelt beside the two in silence.
“Speak! Why are you mute? Where in the world and how did you lose someone!” The old master questioned loudly, exasperated by the duo.
“It …… was in the street …… immediately after the New Year, the street is crowded, I don’t know where the crowd came from, suddenly rushed over and dispersed a few of us.” Wei Yi Peng explained.
“Walking down the street and getting swept away? Didn’t you bring guards with you? How else could an ordinary crowd rush at you?”
The old master is not so good at fooling, the Zhongyi Burial House is also a family of honors, how could the common people be so blind to rush to their family’s ranks? Is it possible that all the guards in the house are just for show?
Even nowadays, the family had reduced the number of guards in order to cut expenses, and this time Wei Yi Feng and the others went out with only four guards by their side.
But the four guards with swords, strong and sturdy, how could they not be rushed by the unusual crowd.
Wei Yi Peng was filled with nervousness he of course this could not be said, because those four guards were at their command intentionally did not care about Wei Qingruo.
But at this moment, facing the old master’s questioning, they absolutely could not admit that they had caused Wei Qingruo’s disappearance.
Wei Yi Feng was a bit more composed than Wei Yi Peng, he explained to the two old men, “Sun’s son doesn’t know why this is happening, that stream of people is very unusual not like the usual common people, not only did they come in force, but they also didn’t put us in their sights in the slightest.”
Only after hearing Wei Yi Feng’s words with a nose and eyes did Old Master Wei somewhat believe them.
Immediately after that, Wei Yi Feng took the initiative to admit his mistake, “It was Sun’s fault, at that time, Sun’s reaction was not in time, he only had the time to protect Sister Wanwan, and by the time Sun reacted, Sister Ruo’er was already nowhere to be found.”
“Then you guys didn’t go looking for it? Even if they were washed away, the people couldn’t be too far away, how could they not be found?” The old lady asked hurriedly.
“This grandchild doesn’t know anymore, by all rights, sister Ruo’er should have waited for us at the same place, but I don’t know why there’s no sign of her even after we’ve searched the surrounding area, and grandchild also feels it’s very strange!” Wei Yi Feng explained.
Wei Yi Feng implied that the problem lay with Wei Ruo, and it was highly likely that Wei Ruo had gone far away on her own, which caused them to be unable to find anyone.
Old Master Wei’s face was meaty and gloomy.
Seeing this, Old Lady Wei busily said, “Ruo’er, when she first came to the capital, she was unfamiliar with the area, and was most likely taken by the flow of people to a place she didn’t recognize.”
Old Master Wei snorted coldly, “Who knows if it is, in case she takes this opportunity to escape, how do you want me to explain to the Marquis Xuanping?”
Old Lady Wei hurriedly said, “No, if Ruo’er wants to escape, where can she escape to? She doesn’t even have a road guide, she’s all alone, with neither coils nor luggage, she can’t even get out of the city gates.”
Hearing Old Lady Wei’s words, Old Master Wei’s face eased slightly.
Immediately after that, Old Master Wei called the chief guard of the residence: “You take the people you can to go out to look for people, and make sure to find people back as soon as possible! Also, this matter is not allowed to leak a little bit of wind, if someone underneath leaks this matter, will be beaten to death with a stick!”
Wei Yi Feng and Wei Yi Peng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, their grandfather and grandmother now believed their words.
However, the duo did not dare to completely put their hearts down at the moment, because in case they found Wei Qingruo and Wei Qingruo gave them up, they would not be able to eat.
So now they instead hoped that the Wei family couldn’t find Wei Qingruo, and even if they did, it would be best if they were already dead people who couldn’t speak.
Wei Qingwan lowered her head in anticipation of what would happen next.
As long as in the cockfighting arena kind of place suffered a bit of misfortune, then Wei Qingruo to face things absolutely than when she was in the Taizhou Province when the seriousness of the time, can not be a meal of family law can be resolved.
###
Wei Jin Yi and Wei Ruo had a meal together in Tian Yun Pavilion, and then accompanied Wei Ruo around for more than an hour until it was late in the day, Wei Jin Yi brought Wei Ruo back to the mansion where Wei Ruo had just changed her clothes.
And then Wei Ruo changed back into women’s clothes before taking Wei Jin Yi’s carriage back to Wei House.
In order to avoid being seen by the people of the Wei family with Wei Ruo and the man together, Wei Jin also did not get into the car again, but said goodbye to Wei Ruo on this occasion.
Before saying goodbye, Wei Jin also asked Wei Ruo: “Apart from accompanying you around, there is nothing else I need to do for you?”
Wei Ruo shook her head, “No more, just take care of yourself, second brother, we’ll make another appointment sometime.”
Wei Jin was also silent for a moment before agreeing, “Good.”
After Wei Ruo waved with Wei Jin also, she shrunk her head back into the carriage and lowered the curtain.
Wei Jin also stood still and waited until Wei Ruo’s carriage disappeared around the corner, then he used his lightness again and followed.
Wei Jin also followed the carriage all the way to the entrance of the Zhongyi Burial Mansion and saw Wei Ruo and Xiu Mei enter before leaving.
As soon as Wei Ruo returned to the mansion, the subordinates ran to Shou’an Hall to report to the two old men.
So Wei Ruo was brought to Shou’an Hall before she even entered the door of Changchun Garden.
Inside the Shou’an Hall, Wei Yi Feng, Wei Yi Peng and Wei Qing Wan were all there.
Seeing Wei Ruo appear unharmed, all three of them were stunned.
A look of panic appeared on Wei Yi Feng and Wei Yi Peng’s faces after they reacted.
What now? They’re going to suffer!
Wei Qingwan, on the other hand, was filled with a look of disappointment.
How did Wei Qingruo come back safely? Did such a chaotic cockfighting arena fail to make anything happen to her?
Wei Qingruo’s luck was a little too good!
Old Master Wei first breathed a sigh of relief, it was good that the person was fine! But what followed was a cloud of anger.
Elder Master Wei made a stern face and questioned Wei Ruo, “Where did you run off to?”
Old Lady Wei’s voice was gentle as she persuaded Old Master Wei who was about to lose his temper, “Master, don’t get angry, first listen to what Ruo’er has to say.”
“Fine, I’ll listen to her, where has she been running off to all day!” Old Master Wei temporarily pressed down his heart’s dissatisfaction.
