At the foot of the mountain, sunlight shines through the gaps in the leaves onto the ground, forming spots of light.

Song Wanyin and Xiao Jingheng were pushing and pulling silk goods when they happened to meet Bai Shaobo and Biao Ye who were looking for them everywhere.

Bai Shaobo and Biao Ye led a team of people and searched the valley for a day and a night, wishing they could turn the entire mountain upside down.

When they heard the sound of wheels rolling over stones in front of them, they mistakenly thought it was bandits and were about to rush over to attack them, but they found out that it was actually their own master.

"Miss, I am late, please forgive me.

I have been extremely anxious since I couldn't find you after I returned. If anything happens to you, I would like to die as an apology."

"Master Taifu, thank you for saving my girl. I will come to your house one day to repay you handsomely.

Wild animals often appear on this mountain, so it is not suitable to stay here for long. We should leave as soon as possible."

Song Wanyin glanced around and asked worriedly:

"Bai Shaobo, where is Tiancheng? Is she okay?"

Bai Shaobo immediately replied respectfully:

"Miss, I ran into Jing Mo and Huai Xi last night, and they were the ones who saved Tian Cheng.

Sweet orange is fine, but..."

Having said this, he looked at Xiao Jingheng standing beside him as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

Xiao Jingheng frowned slightly, and said with his thin lips slightly opened:

"What happened to them? Did something happen?"

Bai Shaobo said tactfully:

“Master Taifu, Jing Mo’s back and arms were scratched while trying to save Tian Cheng.

I will ask the three of them to return to the capital first, and meet you at the Koi Inn after we find you."

Song Wanyin looked at Xiao Jingheng with a guilty heart and apologized:

"Brother, it's all my fault. If I hadn't insisted on taking the risk to come and retrieve the silk goods, Jing Mo wouldn't have been injured."

Xiao Jingheng's heart was as clear as a mirror. He instantly saw through Jing Mo's thoughts and comforted him:

"Junior sister, you don't have to feel sorry for Jing Mo. That boy might be just what he wants."

Song Wanyin raised her eyes in surprise, her red lips slightly parted, with a look of disbelief.

"what?"

Xiao Jingheng did not reveal the reason, and whispered:

"Junior Sister, let's go into the city first. Aren't you still waiting to send these silk goods back to the silk shop?"

Song Wanyin thought that it had been delayed for a day, and even if Manager Xu delayed it, it couldn't be delayed for too long.

"Bai Shaobo, quickly move the silk and satin goods onto the carriage, and send some skilled fighters to capture the bandit leader alive and bring him back to the capital as a witness."

Bai Shaobo responded and immediately led his followers to get busy.

Song Wanyin was certain that once this batch of silk goods was sold, she would be able to earn more wealth and establish her fame and reputation.

This will also deal a heavy blow to the arrogance of the second and third branches of the Gu family.

Soon, the attendants moved all the silk goods onto the carriage.

With the help of Xiao Jingheng, Song Wanyin also got on the carriage and went to the capital together.

Along the way, Song Wanyin was thinking about how to defeat the Gu family's conspiracy. She must not be merciful, so as to avoid endless troubles.

Seeing that she was silent and looked like she was worried, Xiao Jingheng noticed a bag of dry food and water in the carriage and immediately handed it to her.

"Junior sister, eat some dried meat to fill your stomach first."

Song Wanyin took the dried meat, pondered for a moment, and said hesitantly:

"Brother, I know who sent these bandits, but I'm not sure about the origins of those assassins..."

Xiao Jingheng immediately understood what she meant and interrupted softly:

"Little Junior Sister, don't worry, leave these two matters to me.

As for the second and third branches of the Gu family, I guess you want to solve it yourself."

Song Wanyin did not hide it and nodded:

“When Gu Qingchen and I divorced, I didn’t kill them all. I just took away the dowry that originally belonged to me.

I didn't expect them to be so aggressive and try again and again to shut down all the shops under my name.

Since they were so unjust and unkind in the first place, I will not give in this time."

After a long journey, we finally arrived in the city and came to the Koi Inn.

Song Wanyin and Xiao Jingheng came to the private room on the second floor. As soon as they entered the room, they saw Tiancheng taking care of the injured Jing Mo.

Jing Mo's face was pale, his arms were bare, his body and left arm were wrapped in thick white cloth strips, he leaned weakly on the bed, and said with a sad face:

"You want to take medicine again?

This medicine is too bitter. My mouth is tasteless to begin with, and it becomes even more bitter after I finish drinking it."

If Tian Cheng was in her old temper, she wouldn't care whether he wanted to drink or not, but he was injured in order to save her, so she patiently coaxed him:

"This medicine is not bitter. I asked the doctor to change it specially. If you don't believe me, try it.

By the way, I have also prepared some candied dates for you, you can put them in your mouth later, they are so sweet. "

Jing Mo said weakly:

"I am injured now, and I have been drinking soup all day long. Can you make me something delicious?"

Sweet Orange said seriously:

"That won't work. The doctor said that you can only eat some clear liquid food to help your injury heal.

During the recovery period, you must avoid certain foods and not eat anything you please. "

Song Wanyin and Xiao Jingheng smiled at each other, feeling very warm as they watched the scene in front of them.

"Sweet orange."

When Tiancheng heard the familiar voice, her body trembled violently and she turned around suddenly to look.

"Miss? Am I seeing things? It's really you!"

Song Wanyin opened her arms and held her flying figure firmly. After going through so many things, they finally met.

“It’s me, I’m fine.

Looks like you have better people to worry about now."

Tian Cheng's face flushed instantly, and she anxiously explained:

"Miss, the person I'm most worried about has always been you."

When Jing Mo saw his master coming back, he was surprised and happy and wanted to stand up to greet him, but the slightest movement caused his wound to hurt.

"Hiss... I am here to see you, sir. Seeing that you are all right, I feel relieved."

Xiao Jingheng frowned slightly and said:

"Hurry up and lie down. You can rest here for the next few days. I'll let Huaixi accompany me to do some work."

At this time, Huai Xi came to bring food to Jing Mo and Tian Cheng. When he saw his master and the county lady, he was overjoyed and said:

"My Lord, County Lady, I'm glad you're not hurt. I was so worried about you."

Suddenly, Huai Xi thought of an important matter and reported it immediately:

"County Lady, I just heard something on the street. Except for the shops under your name, all the shops in Shangjing City are closed.

The owners of those shops are besieging the silk and satin shop owned by the county lady and jointly denouncing her.

They spread the word that the silk shop had no integrity and could not produce high-quality silk, and they also fanned the flames so that dignitaries would not buy from the silk shop.
