Ji Shuisheng changed his men into the Wan Family Army’s uniform. Fie had become a lieutenant of the Wan Family Army. He washed the bloodstains clean with water in the relay station, making it impossible to tell that a brutal battle had just occurred.

He put on a bamboo hat to cover his face and led the Xiao Family’s Army, who had changed into the Wan Family Army’s uniform, through the bustling city and left Mo City.

Su Qing saved the butler and the bodyguard from the Bodyguard Agency and rushed to Mo City through a minor road. She tried to avoid the official highway during the day and only went on the official road at night.

To let people know that the Wan Family Army had left Mo City, Ji Shuisheng took the official road and even chose a time when many people were during the day. This way, he missed Su Qing perfectly.

Su Qing only returned from Luo City three days later. After entering the city, she brought the butler, Yang Zhi, and the others straight to the government office.

Zhong Yong missed his mother and wanted to go home. Su Qing told him to go back first and come to her later to get the medicine.

Zhong Yong did not know what medicine his master would give him. However, he was used to listening to Su Qing. He nodded and agreed to go home to see his mother first.

Su Qing took Yang Zhi and the others to the government office. Yang Zhi took his men to tie the horses to the manger in the backyard and added fodder and water to the horses before bringing the bodyguards into the hall to meet Second Master Su.

Su Qing came back at a bad time. Su Hanxuan and Luan Qingshan were teaching the children in school. Xiao Chen also carried his bag to school every day. He was with the children in school, and his enthusiasm for learning was high.

Every day at dawn, he would get up and put on his clothes very obediently.

Yang Ruxue and Yang Rubing were not as pampered as they were in Luo City. They did some small jobs, such as sewing clothes for the children and making the egg custard that they liked eating. Now, only one old woman in the residence did rough work.

At this moment, Yang Rubing and Yang Ruxue were sitting on the brick bed doing needlework. Yang Ruxue was thinking about her daughter, so Yang Rubing tried to persuade her.

“My Little Hong said Qing’er alone can fight against thousands of troops. No one can harm her. You don’t have to worry.”

“That’s exactly what I’m worried about—a girl showing her face in public and charging into the front lines. There’s no war without bloodshed. My heart is on tenterhooks all day.”

Yang Ruxue sighed. She was busy making a dudou (belly pouch) for her daughter. The red dudou was embroidered with mandarin ducks playing in the water. Every needle and thread was a mother’s love for her daughter.

“What’s wrong with showing up in public? This is because our Qing ‘er is capable. Even men can’t compare to her. I feel quite proud of her.”

Yang Rubing liked her niece very much.

“If Qing’er weren’t so powerful, your brother-in-law and I would have lost our heads by now. If my Xiao Hong were half as powerful as Qing’er, I would be happy even in my dreams.”

“Sigh, it’s a pity that Qing’er is already engaged. I’m terrified that Qing’er’s fiance doesn’t like women fighting and killing.”

Yang Ruxue sighed heavily again. She had a headache whenever she mentioned Qing’er’s fiancee. Where could she find that family in the vast sea of people?

For the first time, she felt that her husband was unreliable. If she could not find that person in her life, would her daughter never get married?

Su Qing happened to hear this sentence. She stood at the door and paused momentarily before pus.h.i.+ng the door open and entering the house.

“Mother, Aunt, I’m back.”

Su Qing’s voice was calm as if she had not heard her mother and aunt’s words.

Seeing her daughter return, Yang Ruxue quickly put down her work and threw the topic back into her mind. She held her daughter’s hand and looked her up and down. She was only relieved when she was sure that she wasn’t injured.

“Amitabha. Bodhisattva bless you. Qing’er, don’t go out again. Mother is so worried that she can’t sleep.”

Yang Ruxue pulled her daughter to sit on the heated brick bed. After coming to Mo City, she was used to sitting on the heated brick bed. Even if it was windy and snowy outside, she didn’t feel cold with the heated brick bed. It was simply too comfortable.

Su Qing obediently sat on the brick bed. The old butler called out from the door with tears in his eyes,

“Madam.”

Yang Ruxue was stunned for a moment. She turned around and saw the same face as Old Master, but the voice belonged to the butler. Yang Ruxue asked tentatively,

“Are you the old butler?”

“Furen, it’s this old servant.”

The butler knelt on the ground with a guilty expression.

“This old servant failed to follow Old Master’s instructions and did not guard the Su family’s property well.”

“Get up quickly. The ground is cold. If the property is gone, so be it.”

Yang Ruxue was indeed the mistress of the house. She was magnanimous and did not complain about the old butler.

The old butler blamed himself even more and knelt on the ground, refusing to get up.

Su Hanxuan and Luan Qingshan came back from school. Xiao Chen played with the children and would only go home after eating. Usually, Luan Hong would come back from the winery to pick him up.

Su Hanxuan saw the butler kneeling on the ground as soon as he entered.

Since Su Hanxuan was rescued from Luo City by his daughter, he had been worried that the butler who replaced him would be punished on his behalf. He helped the old butler up. When he saw that his daughter had brought him back today, Su Hanxuan’s anxious heart was relieved.

“Money is external; Changfu doesn’t have to blame himself.”

“Master.”

Seeing Old Master, the butler sobbed and kowtowed to Su Hanxuan.

“This old servant didn’t manage to protect the property. The money, gold, silver, and jewelry disappeared.”

Until now, the old butler still could not figure out where the gold, silver, and jewelry in the secret chamber had gone.

“Gone without a trace?”

Su Hanxuan found it strange. What kind of term was that? He quickly asked,

“Is it the New Zhizhou’s house?”

“No, the New Zhizhou brought an army to our house to raid it. There was nothing when we opened the secret room.”

The butler knew that Su Hanxuan couldn’t have taken the gold, silver, and jewelry with him quickly and couldn’t understand.

Su Hanxuan was also shocked. How was this possible? He had gone into the secret room to take the silver notes before he left. How could it have disappeared into thin air?

Su Qing sat on the brick bed with her eyes and nose lowered. Her nose and mouth were as quiet as a clay Buddha.

As for how she found the secret room? She had stored all the gold, silver, jewelry, antiques, and jade in the system. She saw her father open the secret room to take the banknotes. After her father left, she entered the secret room to put everything into the system.

Anyway, it was not difficult. Now that she had familiarized herself with the system, she could take the things away with her mind.

At that time, she had thought that the Imperial Court and Prime Minister Wan would not let this matter rest. They had to find a scapegoat to convict with such a major incident. Otherwise, they could not answer the Imperial Court and Prime Minister Wan.

They would take away all the gold, silver, and treasures to prepare for a rainy day.

However, now was not the time to hand them over. If she conjured those treasures out of thin air, her parents would treat her as a monster.

She had to find an opportunity and an excuse. This was not a matter of urgency.

The old butler had suffered a lot. He had been Su Hanxuan’s errand boy since he was young. When he grew up, Su Hanxuan chose to do business. He could not trust anyone, so he believed in Changfu, who had grown up with him.

Su Hanxuan had always treated him like a brother. Seeing the old butler suffer for him and beaten up by the New Zhizhou, Su Hanxuan’s eyes reddened.

“Father, Mother, I’ll go and cook.”

Su Qing couldn’t bear to watch this scene. It was too tear-jerking. She didn’t understand this kind of emotion.

However, the old butler had suffered, so she made something delicious to reward him.

“You rest. Aunt will cook.”

Yang Rubing stopped Su Qing and nimbly got down from the bed. She pulled the ap.r.o.n hanging on the wall and tied it around her waist. She was very adaptable. As the wife of a government official, she could now cook properly.

“Aunt, let me do it. I’m good at cooking.”

Su Qing stopped her aunt. She was too direct and would not beat around the bush.

As they were talking, a tall figure walked in. He was so tall that he had to lower his head to enter..
