On the other side, after leaving Jinyu Tower, Mu Lianzhi and his three companions got on the carriage.

"Miss, are we going back now? Then this golden hairpin...are we not going to repair it?"

Looking at the wooden box containing the gold hairpins, Chunmiao hesitated and felt worried:

It's a pity to have such a valuable item damaged. It was given by the old lady. Now it can't be worn, sold or repaired. If it is used by someone with ulterior motives to target them, it will be a big trouble for them.

"No rush, let's go to Baimingfang first. We can't give anyone a chance to criticize us."

We have to do the whole show, even if we have to rush through it.

As soon as the carriage started moving, Chunmiao frowned again:

"Miss, did that lady offend you in some way? Don't you usually teach us to be kind to others, to endure rather than to haggle over small matters, and to avoid more trouble than more? Why are you so impulsive today?"

"This matter has become so serious that I am afraid I can't keep it secret from the family. I don't know how the old lady and the first lady will reprimand me when I return. It's really not worth it."

Chunmiao was puzzled. Why would she, who was always good-tempered, suddenly become so harsh to a stranger?

Before Mu Lianzhi could say anything, Leng Yun on the other side took over the conversation:

"Miss, are you deliberately trying to provoke that lady?"

What she left on that woman should be the "tracking water" refined by the "tracking bee"!

The most effective way to lock onto the target and ensure safety is to sprinkle the water on the target itself. In other words, it must be sprinkled on the woman's skin.

The woman was dressed modestly and covered tightly, so the space for frontal operation was very limited. A piece of beeswax could only seal one drop of tracking water. Unless you were a top expert, it would be impossible to remain unnoticed or to accurately lock on with a marble through the air.

She probably wanted to provoke the woman and create an opportunity for physical contact between them.

This is undoubtedly the smartest approach.

It's a pity that the woman had good endurance. She didn't even get excited even when she was so angry. I'm afraid she would never have thought that the seemingly unintentional action at the end was actually the most stupid one.

On the one hand, it plays into their hands;

On the other hand, because of her act of venting her anger, all her previous grievances and forbearance were in vain, and even other people's sympathy for her might be greatly reduced.

I guess that woman isn't as tolerant as she appears to be.

"Yes, she is the mistress of the enemy I'm looking for."

It is true that after searching for a long time, I finally found it without any effort. I gained a lot from this trip today.

According to her original plan, she was going to pick a puppy, then find an opportunity to try her luck at Lu Cai Fang, and then rely on the dog to track down the person. Unexpectedly, after asking casually, she found out that Yutian Pavilion had such a good thing as the "tracking bee".

Today I was even luckier, I actually ran into that woman.

As long as she finds her address, getting rid of that scumbag will be a piece of cake for her.

"what?"

His eyes moved back and forth between the two of them, and Chun Miao was so shocked that his eyes almost popped out of his head:

"Miss, when did you have an enemy? How come I didn't know?"

Leng Yun had only followed her for a few days, how did he know?

Mu Lianzhi tapped her forehead with his fingers:

"There are some things you don't need to know in too much detail. You just need to know that he and I have a blood feud. If he doesn't die, we will all die miserably."

It was obvious that this sentence was not only said to her, but also to Leng Yun.

This time, Chunmiao understood clearly.

Seeing that she was speaking so seriously, she thought that she had received some inside information or that they had formed a grudge when she met Beitang Yi alone. She gritted her teeth and nodded:

"Miss, no matter what you do, I will stay with you till death."

"Same goes for my subordinates."

Holding one in each hand, Mu Lianzhi squeezed them with satisfaction.

Although the script she got was quite miserable, it was not without hope. The strong do not complain about the environment. She wanted to be a strong person and live out her chances.

"By the way, Chunmiao, do you still remember that young man just now?"

"My lady, Mr. Cao Sucao, do you not remember the person you once loved and made a wish for?"

"What?"

This time, it was Mu Lianzhi who was shocked:

Shouldn't she be in love with her ghost husband? If she didn't love him, would she be insulted and treated like this by the whole family?

"Miss, you really don't remember? In the second year after you came of age, I accompanied you to Qingyun Temple to pray for a marriage. We stayed there for three days. We met Mr. Cao under a tree on the roadside. He was pale and sweating. You gave him the water you brought with you. Later, you had a great conversation. On the Chinese Valentine's Day that year, you flew kites together and made wishes."

"You also said that you wished to marry a man like this and live with him till old age."

"At that time, I don't know who was malicious enough to spread rumors that your eyesight was different from that of ordinary people, saying that you were a witch, which caused the people who proposed marriage to the Mu family to fall into despair. Because of this, you stayed at home for several months without leaving the room. Madam specially arranged for you to go out and relax."

"That's why you didn't even dare to say your last name. You changed your last name to a name that used one of your nicknames, 'Qingqing', and changed your name to 'Lianqing'."

"At that time, I asked you why you didn't tell the truth. What if you missed each other? You said that Mr. Cao had a good temperament and was not like an ordinary person. We didn't want to be disliked by another person after meeting each other by chance..."

"I am almost heartbroken after hearing this."

"Fortunately, Master Cao never asked you a single question from beginning to end, so you opened your heart and had a good impression of him. Finally, under the wishing tree at Qingyun Temple, you made such a wish."

"Later, the master had an argument with someone and we left overnight. We never saw each other again. It took me a while to remember this just now."

"With your current status, it is indeed unsuitable for you to have anything to do with him. I just thought you were pretending."

It turned out to be just a minor episode, no wonder she had no memory of it.

Soon they arrived at Baimingfang. Places like this usually only open for business when it's almost dark, so there were hardly any outsiders there. They paid a lot of money to take a tour of Mu Lianzhi's building and met all the girls, including Cai Cui.

……

After finishing what needed to be done, the group headed back home.

After entering the door, Mu Lianzhi went to the old lady's Fudeyuan and presented her with the snacks she had specially bought. She also did not forget to report the key points of the day's itinerary. Of course, the most important thing was to find an excuse to temporarily leave the pass token.

As she expected, the old lady just said a few words in a light tone and did not embarrass her.

After returning to her own courtyard, Mu Lianzhi struck while the iron was hot and started to make a plan for opening a ready-made shoe and bag store. She was busy with all sorts of things until very late that day.

The next day, she was awakened by Aunt Kang's loud voice while half asleep:

"Second Madam, it's bad. The old lady has suddenly developed an old illness and is convulsing all over. The maid is already boiling medicine. The palace doctor said that we need to use your heart blood as a guide to temporarily stabilize her condition..."
