Somewhere in Xilin City, a young man and woman were respectfully reporting something to someone.

"Sister Zhong, don't worry. Since I chose you, there is no reason to doubt me."

A cheerful female voice sounded, and the two men were flattered and kept bowing.

"Miss Feng, you first saved my daughter from danger, and then found a way for my husband and me to make a living. This is such a great favor that our family cannot possibly repay you."

The woman in the white linen dress was young. Although her clothes were a little old, they were clean and tidy. Tears welled up in her eyes, and she held the man next to her tightly with one hand.

The man next to her also had a look of gratitude on his face. His coarse cloth clothes had many patches on them, and his voice was slightly trembling. He looked at Feng Xili with a look that made it seem like they were going to kneel down and kowtow to her in the next second.

"Sister Zhong, Brother Wang, you don't have to be so polite. Little Nannan and I are really destined to be together." Feng Xili hurriedly pulled Sister Zhong, fearing that the two of them would really kneel down.

Little Nannan was a baby who was entrusted to a little girl in Zechun City. The little girl was really smart. She guided her to find the north gate and successfully found her parents.

Thinking of Zechun City, Feng Xili felt a pain in her heart, and heat appeared in the corners of her eyes. She blinked hard a few times, "Sister Zhong, there are only four or five stores now. You have to get started as soon as possible. I won't stay in the northwest for long."

The couple's home in Zechun City was robbed and their eldest daughter unfortunately died. They didn't want to be reminded of her by seeing the things she had, so they moved to Jinning City, where they happened to meet Feng Xili, who was very busy.

She secretly observed the two men. Although they were honest and obedient, they were not too rigid in their ways and were quite active in thinking, making them suitable to run a hot pot restaurant for her.

Starting from Jinning City, she taught the two of them step by step. Sister Zhong was in charge of the front of the store, and Brother Wang was in charge of the back of the store. The two of them had a clear division of labor and were diligent and hardworking.

It really saved her a lot of worries. Now things in Xilin City are on the right track. Together with Zechun City and Jinning City, she has a total of five stores, which is enough to keep the couple busy for a while.

"Okay, I have to go to the next place tomorrow, so you don't have to follow me." She pulled the two of them to sit at the table, as there were some things she needed to explain.

"From now on, I will assign a shopkeeper to each store. You only need to communicate with him. My identity only needs to be known to you two, and you must not reveal it to anyone else."

She took a sip of tea and took out three wooden signs from her bosom. "We each have one of these three signs. If anything happens in the future, I will inform you through letters."

As she spoke, she took out a piece of paper, dipped a little bit of ink on the raised area at the top edge of the wooden sign, and printed it on the paper.

"My wooden sign has this shape. All you have to do is stamp it with your seal..."

Feng Xili demonstrated it to them personally. Hers was in the shape of a five-pointed star, while theirs was a standard circle.

She overlapped the two seals on the paper and attached them together, so that her five-pointed star fit perfectly within the circle.

The couple opened their mouths in amazement, and found this way of distinguishing the real from the fake very novel.

"From now on, I will include this shape in every letter I write. You only need to compare it to know if it is what I meant."

Having said that, her expression turned serious.

"As long as you don't have any crooked thoughts, your future will only get better and better."

Before the couple could finish their surprise, they received a cold look out of the blue, which made them tremble in their hearts.

The two said almost in unison: "Don't worry, Miss Feng, you have been very kind to our entire family. My husband and I are not greedy people, and we will definitely abide by the law."

The couple now has a child, a livelihood, and a new home, and the future is promising.

They both understand the principle of contentment.

She nodded, indicating that they could go back, as she had other things to do.

Of the eleven cities in the northwest, three have already been taken.

There is still no news of Feng Tianxu.

The fire burned for a whole day, and all the people who died in the fire were unrecognizable and their bodies were gone.

She couldn't bear to watch it, but she had to.

But even so, she didn't think Feng Tianxu was among those charred people.

Tianxu, are you really, really leaving?

The Prime Minister's Mansion is fine, and father and his wife are fine too, do you know?

You're a hero now!

Everyone in Ya'an City regards you as a role model!

She looked up at the sky, which was pure blue without a trace of impurities.

The cloudless sky seemed as empty as her heart.

"Miss, everything is packed." Lai Xiang pushed the door open and saw Feng Xili leaning against the window in a single layer of clothes. She immediately started nagging.

"You're sitting here in the breeze again. You just recovered a while ago. If you get sick again, I won't be able to stop you, Sister Xia Feng!"

Listen! This little girl is really lawless now, even making subtle threats?

"Okay, okay, it's already on, isn't it?" She reached out and grabbed a fox fur coat and put it on, fiddling with the soup that had just been served.

"Miss, you already have so many rewards, why do you still do these hard things?" Lai Xiang put the meals on the table one by one, and finally couldn't help asking.

Feng Xili gestured for Lai Xiang to sit down. "Those rewards can be used, but they will eventually run out. It's better to make some plans early and make money from them. They're just sitting there anyway."

No matter what the future holds, as long as I have a good financial foundation, whether I can help Mu Mu or not, it will give me confidence.

Speaking of making money, I wonder how Ding Laoyao is doing?

I asked him to check Mu Mingyan's background. It's been more than two months now. Has he found out anything?

How to contact him?

She has to move again tomorrow, which is so worrying!

"Miss, someone is looking for you outside." Xia Feng appeared like a ghost after she finished her meal quietly.

"He said his last name was Ding."

……

Feng Xili held her forehead and wanted to laugh. Speak of the devil and he will appear!

When she saw Ding Shijiao, whom she hadn't seen for several months, she noticed at a glance that there was smoke coming out of someone's head, his arms were clasped together, and he looked impatient.

"Brother Ding?" she called softly.

Ding Shijiao turned his head and looked over, complaining non-stop, "You women are really something! No matter where you go, you always make people wait!"

Feng Xili was stunned. This guy must have been waiting for quite a while. Thinking that she still had something else that needed him to do, she immediately put on a smile.

"Thank you for your hard work, Brother Ding! I am the one who is ignorant. How about you sit down and I give you a back massage and shoulder rub?" She pinched her throat and spoke in an extremely flattering manner.

Ding Shijiao rolled his eyes. This little girl is very mean.

She didn't even pay the deposit when she asked me to do the job, and I had to come to her to collect the money myself, and waited for more than an hour.

He glanced at her sideways, then sat down and sipped his tea, his eyes unconsciously scanning the surroundings.

What’s the point of drinking the tea when it’s cold!

Does this mean that she should clear the area?

"You go down first, we have something to discuss." She said to Xia Feng and Lai Xiang, who had been glaring at Ding Shijiao from the beginning.

This person is too casual. Lai Xiang wrinkled her nose and felt that this person was not serious and was not a good person.

Xia Feng always felt that this man seemed to be very familiar with the young lady, and the aura between the two was also very similar. When did the young lady get to know this kind of person?

Lai Xiang obediently poured tea for the two of them and went downstairs. Xia Feng gave Ding Shijiao a warning glare before leaving the room.

"Your style as a princess is becoming more and more handy!"

He recalled the looks from the two girls just now, smiled teasingly, then changed the subject and asked her, "Is it fun?"
