After being reborn, her aloof ex-husband and her crazy deceased husband got into a fight.

Huan'er ran to the hanging flower gate as fast as she could.

When there are people on the road, she keeps her head down and runs with small, quick steps; when there are no people on the road, she runs at full speed.

From the inner courtyard to the hanging flower gate, traversing half of the Wu mansion, it took her less than half an incense stick's time.

The hanging flower gate marks the boundary between the front courtyard and the inner quarters. The Wu family had many women and strict household rules, so a matron always guarded the hanging flower gate. No men were allowed to enter without permission, and maids were not permitted to leave without a token.

To find Lanting Boat, one must pass through the hanging flower gate to reach the front courtyard. Huan'er held her breath, ready to force her way in, when suddenly her eyes lit up—she saw Mo Yun!

Mo Qu was bending over, sweeping the floor at the hanging flower gate.

Today, the Wu family is hosting a banquet. To facilitate the entry and exit of the servants, the hanging flower gate is not closed as usual, but is half-open.

The two old women guarding the gate sat outside the gate, with a small square table in front of them. On the table was a pot of wine and several small dishes. The two women ate and chatted while enjoying the wine and food.

"Hey, Hou Zizai, whose servant are you? You're quite the quick-witted one."

"You little rascal, why don't you go to the front yard and find a chance to curry favor with the important people? Why are you trying to ingratiate yourself with us old women?"

"Hey, there are too many people in the front yard, how could I possibly show my face? It's much quieter here at Grandma's. As long as you don't mind that I'm clumsy and slow, that's fine."

With a simple, honest smile, Mo Yun picked up a bucket and a broom and diligently swept the road in front of the hanging flower gate.

Huan'er didn't have time to think about why Mo Yun was here. She rushed out and shouted, "Mo Yun, Mo Yun, come here quickly!"

"Oh, so that's why we have such a diligent person here today. Turns out it's to see this little vixen," an old woman said with a laugh, taking a sip of her wine.

Mo Yun's expression changed upon seeing Huan'er. Forgetting all about chatting with the two old women, she quickly pulled Huan'er aside: "Miss Huan'er, what happened?"

"Quick, take me to see Young Master Lan. Madam has been drugged." Huan'er whispered.

Without saying a word, Mo Yun grabbed Huan'er and left.

The two old women exchanged a glance, then continued eating and drinking as if nothing had happened.

"This young man is just too impatient..."

Considering that Mo Yun had helped them clean up for half a day, the two of them turned a blind eye and pretended not to have seen the two having a secret rendezvous. After all, they weren't their own maids and servants, so they couldn't interfere that much.

"By the way, Mo Yun, what are you doing here?" Huan'er suddenly remembered and asked.

"It was the young master who asked me to stay here, just in case. I never expected that Madam would actually have an accident," Mo Yun replied as he walked quickly.

Before long, Mo Yun brought Huan'er to Lan Tingzhou. Upon seeing Huan'er, Lan Tingzhou's eyes narrowed slightly. He immediately stopped talking to the people around him, apologized, and then got up and walked over.

Huan'er quickly recounted how Gan Cai'er went to see Wu Xin and was then drugged.

Lan Tingzhou's face darkened, and a chill emanated from him. Huan'er couldn't help but shiver.

"Miss Huan'er, return to the inner courtyard immediately and find Madam Wu. Use whatever means necessary to keep her occupied and prevent her from being summoned away. Understand?" Lan Tingzhou stared at Huan'er, his words brief but serious.

Huan'er's heart skipped a beat, knowing that this was a serious matter. She nodded, turned around, and left.

"Mo Yun, go and call Ting Zhi over here."

A moment later, Lantingzhi skipped over to him.

"Your sister-in-law is in trouble," Lan Tingzhou said calmly.

"What?! What did you say?!" Lan Tingzhi instantly bristled. His outburst drew the attention of many people around him, who all turned to look at him.

Lan Tingzhou ignored his exclamation and calmly gave the order:

"You must immediately climb over the wall into the inner courtyard and search in areas with few people but houses. Find the person as soon as possible."

Lan Tingzhou's expression remained unchanged, his face extremely calm. Lan Tingzhi knew that his brother was angry. This also meant that his sister-in-law was truly in trouble. Immediately, he dared not delay for a moment, nor dared to joke anymore, and headed towards the backyard.

Unexpectedly, Lan Tingzhou grabbed him again.

"First, be careful not to alert the guards of the Wu residence. Second, search the garden first, especially the buildings where visitors can rest."

"okay, I get it."

Lanting left quickly.

"Young Master, what should we do?" Mo Yun asked.

"Wait," Lan Tingzhou said calmly, his eyes lowered.
