"Who are you?" Nanny Wang asked in surprise. She glanced at Mama Zhang and Doctor Wu, not knowing whether she should open the door.

"Madam, I am Qian, the shopkeeper of Tongxi Silk Shop. I came here last time. Have you forgotten me?" The man outside was not as anxious as before, and his voice became a little gentler.

"What's the matter? Why are you in such a hurry? Why do you come here so early in the morning?" asked Zhou's mother.

"It's an order, and it's needed urgently." Shopkeeper Qian said calmly.

"Madame Wang, please open the door. The wife of the prefect may have chosen a style and is asking us to make new samples." The door of the main room creaked open, and Chan Yi said with a slightly tired look. She had just heard the voice of the shopkeeper Qian in the room. Although she had not met him in person last time, Chan Yi still recognized his voice.

An'er, who was in Mother Zhou's arms, heard his mother's voice and stretched out his chubby little hands to ask Chan Yi to hold him.

Chan Yi scratched her little nose, took the baby with a smile, and kissed her on the face. An'er let out a giggle of joy.

Because someone was coming, Mother Zhou hid in the house on her own accord. She used to be Pei Jin's wet nurse and was afraid of being recognized by someone she knew.

At this time, Nanny Wang had already opened the gate to the courtyard. Standing at the door were Shopkeeper Qian and two noblemen in luxurious clothes and outstanding looks.

"Manager Qian, what's going on?" Nanny Wang felt something was wrong when she saw two strange young men, but it was too late to close the door.

Xiao Yuan and Xiao Che looked at each other and saw joy in each other's eyes.

The woman standing under the eaves, wearing a plain white dress and holding a baby, had a pretty face and a pair of big black eyes that looked very much like her father, and her figure and voice were exactly like her mother's. Needless to say, she must be their sister, and the cute baby in her arms must be their nephew.

The ecstasy of finally realizing his long-cherished wish after a long pursuit made Xiao Yuan tremble all over, and he wanted to move forward involuntarily. After so many years, he finally found his sister.

"Manager Qian, you brought two young masters here so early in the morning. What's the matter?" Chan Yi asked softly.

Xiao Yuan suppressed the surging joy in his heart, took a deep breath, and gradually calmed his mind.

"Madam Li, we are customers who have come from other places to order wedding dresses. This is the order we placed with Tongxi Silk Shop." Xiao Yuan said calmly, waving his hand for the shopkeeper Qian who came with him to present the order.

"Then please take a seat first. Madam Wang, please serve the tea." Chan Yi saw that the two noble gentlemen looked friendly, humble and polite. She felt a little bit friendly, but she also felt like she had seen them somewhere before.

"No hurry, no hurry. Madam Li, since the women in the two young masters' families are not convenient to show up in public, can you go with us to the carriage at the entrance of the alley to meet her, listen to her requirements, and customize a luxurious and unique wedding dress for her? This woman is the sister of the two young masters. She comes from a prominent family and is very particular about etiquette and reputation. I hope Madam Li will help." Shopkeeper Qian looked at Su Canyi with an inquiring look.

Seeing how accommodating Manager Qian was to the two young masters, Su Chanyi realized that these two young masters must be of extraordinary birth and he could not afford to offend them, otherwise why would a manager like him follow him here.

Since the sponsor has said so, it’s not impossible to just go to the entrance of the alley.

"Manager Qian, then let's do as you say." Chan Yi nodded and wanted to send An'er back to the house.

But when An'er saw so many people coming, she was unwilling to go back to the house. She happily hugged her mother's neck and called out to Xiao Yuan and the others.

"This little baby is so cute and adorable." Xiao Che said with a smile, "Why don't you take him with you? My sister has a wet nurse and maids here who can help take care of the baby."

"Madam, I will go with you." Chunyue walked out of the kitchen and said with her head raised.

Several people surrounded Chan Yi and walked out of the courtyard. Mother Zhou in the house listened to their voices and felt something was wrong. The voice of the young man seemed familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had heard it.

She wanted to secretly open the window and peek out from the edge of the window, but she heard that they had already left the house with Chanyi.

"Are you okay? Why did you go out?" After they left the yard, Mother Zhou quickly opened the door and ran out to ask Nanny Wang.

"It's okay, don't worry. I'm just going to see the customer. If you're worried, look, they're going that way." Nanny Wang said while pointing to the east.

Mother Zhou didn't say anything and hurriedly chased to the east.

Chan Yi saw that there were indeed two carriages parked at the entrance of the alley. Two maids with gentle smiles stood beside one of the black-painted carriages. When they saw her coming, they hurriedly came forward and bowed to her politely, saying, "Please get in the carriage, my lady is inside."

A maidservant in green lifted the curtain, and another maidservant in yellow came over and helped Chan Yi into the carriage.

Chan Yi didn't suspect anything and hurried to hand An'er to Qiu Yue, when she heard Mother Zhou running over breathlessly and shouting, "Girl, wait a minute."

"Mom, why did you come out too?" Chan Yi looked back at Mother Zhou, shook her head helplessly, and felt warm in her heart.

"Girl, girl..." Mother Zhou saw the suave nobleman standing in front of her at a glance. He looked at her with a pair of burning peach blossom eyes with a hint of warning in his eyes, and the folding fan in his hand was pointed at her intentionally or unintentionally.

"Girl, don't get in the car, they are..." Mother Zhou was frightened and said hurriedly, but before she could finish her words, someone held her up. She felt her legs go weak and she almost fell down.

By the time she had gained her footing, Chanyi and An'er had already been helped into the carriage by the two maids, and even Chunyue was nowhere to be seen.

"Girl..." she shouted in panic.

"Mom, since you are so worried, come get in the carriage too." Xiao Yuan winked, and a maid in green came over in a flash, helped Mother Zhou up, and pulled her into the carriage.

At this time, the secret guard ran over and whispered something to Xiao Yuan. Xiao Yuan's face changed suddenly and he immediately jumped onto the carriage.

Inside the carriage, Chan Yi and Zhou Mama were already being held down by their maids, looking at each other in bewilderment.

Chan Yi knew she had been tricked the moment she got on the bus. Her mind raced as she wondered who these people belonged to. Were they Pei Yunshan's? Pei Jin's? The Fourth Prince's? Or someone else?

She was startled when she saw another person suddenly jump into the carriage, but An'er in her arms was happy. She thought someone was playing with her, and she immediately smiled happily with her little mouth curved.

Xiao Yuan was amused by An'er. He stretched out his hand happily and wanted to touch An'er's little head, but Chan Yi turned sideways to avoid him.

He cleared his throat awkwardly and said, "Please believe me, I'm not a bad person. I'm Xiao Yuan, the son of the Duke of Zhenguo. I wonder if you remember that we met once before? It's dangerous for you to live here now. I want to take you away."
