The sickly son died young? After the marriage exchange, I will bring prosperity to his entire clan f

Du Mingxian and Ling Silang waited in the same spot for a day and a night, and they finally returned.

The two expressed their gratitude again, saying, "Thank you so much. It's truly a blessing from God that my wife and I met you."

The leader had already heard about the two men's situation from his underlings and now understood and trusted them. "We're tired from the journey, but time is tight, so we'll continue our journey tonight."

Du Mingxian and Ling Silang naturally followed their arrangements, because the two of them, dressed as old, couldn't move around, and the boss kindly arranged a seat for them.

Considering the two elderly people, they were seated together. The car they were in happened to have cargo, but half of it was wrapped in oil paper, so it was impossible to tell what was inside.

The two kept thanking her and sat down. Taking advantage of the darkness, Du Mingxian quietly reached her hand under and touched a hard box.

She quietly went over and whispered in Ling Silang's ear, "There's a box inside, I don't know how big it is, I want to put it into my spatial storage to take a look."

Ling Silang didn't dare to speak, but gently touched her body with his hand: It's dark now, you can try, but you have to be quick.

Du Mingxian put the box away with a thought, but after she put it away, she found another box behind it, which was not very obvious. She breathed a sigh of relief, closed her eyes and opened the box with her mind. She found that it contained... stones, very small stones.

This puzzled her greatly. She randomly took two different ones from the box, closed the box, and then put them out again.

The whole process was very fast, and because of the caution, it made people extremely nervous.

Ling Silang sensed something behind him and turned around to see Du Mingxian looking at him with her eyes open. She placed her hand in his palm and gently tapped it: "It's all stones inside."

Ling Silang had many questions, but he didn't ask any more at the moment.

Du Mingxian thought it was too risky to look at everything.

She gently tapped Ling Silang's hand: I'll pretend to be asleep, hang in there, I'm going into my spatial dimension for a bit.

Ling Silang didn't think much of it: Okay.

They had clothes in their bundle, but the clothes were all too big. Du Mingxian was also thin. When she entered the space, Ling Silang kept supporting himself with his hands, so he couldn't tell that Du Mingxian was missing. No one would have thought that an inconspicuous old lady would have a space.

After entering the space, Du Mingxian found two boxes of similar size and quickly swapped them with the ones in the car before entering the space again.

This time, she opened all three boxes she had brought in, and they were all filled with stones. She searched through the boxes again before discovering the clue.

The box was covered with stones on top and straw underneath. There was nothing under the straw, but there were many scratches on the sides of the box. After hesitating, she took a knife and gently scratched it. The scratches were exactly the same as the previous ones, and there were many of them, indicating that the box had contained a lot of things.

Not seeing anything else strange, she put the box back in its original state, went outside, changed the box, and then lay down in Ling Silang's arms to sleep.

These people traveled back to the city very quickly, and entered the city on the third night.

The city was pitch black at the moment. Because they had official duties, the boss arranged for the two of them to stay at the home of a neighbor he knew. The neighbor was an elderly couple with no children, and the house was spacious enough for them to stay.

They arrived at their destination in the middle of the night and were taken to a neighbor's house. After expressing their gratitude, they settled in.

After entering the room, Du Mingxian and Ling Silang went into the space.

They had been pretending for the past few days, and dared not move too much, for fear of revealing too many flaws. Only after entering the space did they feel more relaxed.

Slumped in her chair, Du Mingxian finally told Ling Silang about her discovery that day.

"Could it be that they carried weapons when they left and only brought back stones?"

“That’s possible, but it’s too strange. Transporting weapons is such an important task, so it shouldn’t be faster. But they went very slowly and casually, covering very little distance each day. On the way back, they were in a rush, as if the stones they brought back were the most important thing.”

Ling Silang knew there were many suspicious points in this matter. "Let's leave it at that for now. We'll find an opportunity to investigate further later. It's almost time for me to take office. We've already entered the city. We'll find an opportunity to leave in the next couple of days, then meet up with Qiu Shu and the others to take office."

"Okay, that's about right. If it's too slow, it will arouse suspicion."

"Yes."

The two agreed to go out to sleep. They got up very early the next morning. Du Mingxian checked their makeup again and found no problems before leaving the house.

Ling Silang was very diligent and would do any work he could find. Since he was staying at someone else's house, he couldn't just do nothing. After finishing his work, he awkwardly said to the man who was in charge, "We don't have much money on us, so we probably can't pay for the lodging. But I will try my best to do as much work as possible."

The men in the household weren't particularly old, but Ling Silang, who was wearing makeup, looked older.

"Brother, it's alright, don't worry. My house has plenty of rooms, so you can stay a few more days without doing anything."

"No, my husband and I are going to Wenzhou to find our child, so we can't stay any longer."

Ling Silang recounted the story they had made up, and finally said, "Let's go out for a walk first."

The two went out for a stroll and then returned in a great hurry. They told the man who was in charge of the house, "We ran into a neighbor from the same village. He said he's seen our child before. He's going there anyway, so he can take us there. We're leaving now. Could the child who brought us here please tell him thank you for me?"

The man from the house was still a little uneasy. "Anqie, do you really know him? You're just leaving like this? Aren't you going to wait for him?"

"We're not waiting anymore. They're from our village, they wouldn't lie to us. Besides, we don't have anything on us that they could cheat us out of. Thank you, thank you all, you're all good people."

The two hurriedly said goodbye and left without lingering for even a moment longer.

To make it more realistic, Ling Silang and Du Mingxian went to find Qiu Shu and the others. These people had been gathered in the city for several days but had not seen their master. If they hadn't said they had something to do before, they would have been unable to stay any longer.

After Dongmo was made up, she drove the carriage alone, taking Du Mingxian and Ling Silang out of the city openly.

Fortunately, they put on a convincing act. Meanwhile, when the leader returned to the courtyard where he had arranged for Ling Silang and the others, his colleagues said a few words to him, saying that he had been careless and that the people he had rescued might not be good people. The leader was still a little skeptical.

When he arrived, the two elderly people who had been accused of being bad people had already left.

He even went to the city gate to inquire, and sure enough, someone saw two old men leaving with a young man. They were talking happily, as if they were from the same hometown.
