The team quickly set off again.

Lin Mo took some snacks to Li Ping's place.

She shared the snacks with Chen Ruixin and his siblings, and gave the rest to the eldest brother, Chen Ruoming, to put away.

After doing all this, she finally looked seriously at Li Ping, who was pushing the wheelbarrow:

"Li Ping, thank you for earlier."

Just then, Li Ping's wheelbarrow fell into a small ditch, and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't push it out.

Seeing this, Lin Mo reached out and gently pushed the carriage out of the ditch.

Li Ping breathed a sigh of relief and shook her head:

"Young Madam, you're too kind of yourself."

This is hardly a help at all.

Besides, I can't stand people like that; they're the real human traffickers.

If she succeeds, who knows how she'll abuse that child.

Li Ping shook her head angrily.

This world is full of all kinds of people, it's awful.

Chen Ruixin, who was being pulled along by Chen Ruoming, looked at Lin Mo with a smile:

“Mrs. Xu, Mother, I wanted to bite her just now, but she held me down too tightly and I couldn’t move. She’s a bully who picks on children. I should bite her.”

As he spoke, he deliberately opened his mouth wide, revealing a mouthful of green bean teeth, looking as if he was about to bite someone.

Lin Mo found his appearance amusing.

Seeing the two younger children of the Chen family, a thought struck him:

"That child is going to the Valley of Divine Healers, which is about a three-day journey."

"Or, how about letting these two younger ones keep Qin Yuanli company in the carriage?"

Li Ping was moved.

But she quickly hesitated, "This...this isn't quite right, is it?"

"It's nothing." Lin Mo shook her head.

"We'll tell everyone that the child took the blame for him and was frightened, which is why he led them for a while."

After saying that, Lin Mo didn't care whether Li Ping would object or not, grabbed one child with each hand, and walked straight ahead.

Li Ping was moved.

Mrs. Xu is a good person.

She looked at her eldest son and daughter beside her, "You must remember the kindness of Mrs. Xu, understand?"

Chen Ruoming nodded, "I know, Mother."

Then he took out the pastries Lin Mo had brought, carefully untied them, and put one piece to her lips:

"Mom, have some, it's very sweet."

Seeing her refuse, Chen Ruoming stubbornly shook his head:

"Mom, there's still a lot left. You should eat some. If you don't eat, I won't eat any more either."

Li Ping then reached out and took it, taking a bite.

So sweet, so delicious.

Chen Ruoming was satisfied.

Just as they were about to wrap up the remaining pastries, they discovered a silver note tucked inside the double layer of oil paper that was used to wrap the pastries.

He nervously moved closer to Li Ping:

"Mom, look."

Li Ping also saw the silver note with a face value of one hundred and her heart skipped a beat.

This banknote...

"Mother, should I take it back and return it to Madam Xu?" Chen Ruoming said softly.

Li Ping hesitated for a moment, then shook her head:

"No need, she won't want it."

She probably knew she was in dire straits, which is why she tried to help herself in this way.

Li Ping reached out and took out the silver note, then carefully hid it close to her body.

With this money, she could take her child to the place of exile alive.

Maybe there will still be money left over to settle down.

But I owe this debt of gratitude a great debt.

Li Ping gripped the handlebars of the wheelbarrow tightly with both hands, her face serious:

"Ruoming, you and your siblings must promise your mother that you will never do anything to betray the Xu family or to betray Young Madam Xu in your entire lives, understand?"

……

After seeing Chen Ruixin and her brother off onto the carriage, Lin Mo returned to Xu Wuyan's side.

"Who do you think instigated that woman to cause trouble?"

Xu Wuyan shook his head, "A skinny little boy, effeminate, is too hard to find."

Most importantly, we don't have time to stay in Luyang City to investigate, so it seems this matter will simply be dropped.

Hearing his words, Lin Mo's heart stirred.

But then I realized I was being delusional; it was simply impossible.

Shaking head:

"We'll be more careful from now on."

Xu Wuyan nodded, then looked at Lin Mo with a smile:

"The lady's reaction time is really fast."

They reacted so quickly, and even put children of roughly the same age as the Chen family onto the carriage first to confuse the situation.

If we hadn't done that, we probably would have continued arguing.

Lin Mo shook her head, "Clearing one's name is not difficult at all, it just takes some time."

At this point, Lin Mo suddenly narrowed her eyes:

"I feel like this is more like an attempt to disgust us."

After all, once Qin Yuanli speaks, whether the other person is his mother or not will immediately become clear, won't it?

Qin Yuanli is already several years old; he's not a child who can't speak.

Xu Wuyan paused for a moment, then shook his head:

"They're probably not trying to disgust us, but rather to use this incident to add another charge against us. This plan has so many flaws; it doesn't seem like it was designed by some cunning old fox, but rather by a novice. So..."

Xu Wuyan looked at Lin Mo, "The person who caused this mess, could it be a child?"

Adding the woman's words to the equation, Xu Wuyan felt more and more that this was the only possibility.

Lin Mo, “…”

Are they really that annoying?

Even a child is causing them trouble?

is it possible?

……

At this time, the Su family.

Madam Su was crying and making a scene in the hall, smashing everything she could.

The once tidy living room is now a complete mess.

Su Weiming walked in from outside.

Seeing this, a look of disgust flashed in his eyes.

With a sullen face:

"How long are you going to stop going crazy?"

"You've had your fun, now you can come in and clean up."

"Are you saying I'm going crazy?" Madam Su's eyes were red, and she glared at him angrily.

"I can't be bothered with you messing around outside."

But Han Yulong is just my niece, how could you do this to her?

Do you even respect me?

Haha, my husband and my niece are having an affair! If word gets out, how will I ever save face?

Su Weiming looked displeased.

"I told you, I have absolutely no idea what happened."

I originally intended to use her to get closer to Marquis Luyang. Do you think I'd be stupid enough to touch her? Besides, she's not some stunning beauty. Am I that desperate?

Mrs. Su was stunned; he was right.

But she was still unwilling to give up:

"Then how come she was in the study, and you two even had an affair?"

Su Weiming glanced at her; this was exactly what he couldn't understand.

He made sure the doors and windows were closed before he went to sleep.

How did Han Yulong manage to enter his study without alerting him?

Most importantly, how did I end up sleeping with her?

Throughout the entire process, he felt like he was dreaming.

Could someone have drugged him?

Seeing him deep in thought, Madam Su assumed he was reminiscing, and was so angry she felt dizzy.

Shameless and despicable.

Just as she was about to get angry, the butler rushed in.

"Master, Madam, something terrible has happened! The house has been robbed! The storerooms and warehouses have all been emptied."

"What!" Su Weiming stood up excitedly.

His eyes widened. "What did you say?"

The warehouse...the warehouse has been emptied out?

He felt his voice trembling as he said those last words.

So, all the wealth accumulated by his Su family ancestors is gone?

Butler Su nodded, "Yes!"

The servants just discovered that the lock on the outside of the storeroom had been broken, so they went to check.

Upon closer inspection, they discovered the warehouse was completely empty.

At this point, Butler Su paused for a moment before continuing:

"When I received the news, I sensed something was wrong and immediately led people to search all over the mansion."

Then they discovered that the warehouse, the lady's small storeroom, and the old lady's small storeroom had also been emptied.

Upon hearing this, Madam Su swayed and fainted.

"lady!"

……

Just then, the maid rushed over:

"Master, something terrible has happened! The old lady has fainted from anger!"

"What? What happened? How could the old lady faint from anger?" Su Weiming's face was dark and distorted.

He wanted to see his mother, but he was holding his wife and couldn't leave immediately.

Meanwhile, his children also rushed over.

They all cried out that their houses had also been burgled, and all their valuables were gone.

The Su family was in complete chaos.

With a gloomy face, Su Weiming sent someone to fetch a doctor, and then hurried off to check on the patient.

This sight made his face contort even more horribly.

Without a trace, it simply vanished into thin air.

"Master, should we report this to the authorities?" Butler Su asked in a low voice.

Su Weiming was about to suggest reporting it to the authorities, but remembering his cooperation with Marquis Luyang, he gritted his teeth:

"Don't report to the authorities for now. Seal off these places and give instructions that no one is allowed to spread the news. Let's get through tonight first."

Su Weiming's face was very pale.

Thinking about tonight's plans, I couldn't help but clench my fists.

If news of the theft were to spread, Marquis Luyang would definitely cancel the cooperation.

Damn it, why did this have to happen at this crucial moment?

All the valuables are gone; if this deal falls through, the Su family will be truly finished.

Therefore, we absolutely cannot afford to lose this business deal tonight.

Butler Su nodded and immediately turned to make the arrangements.

Su Weiming's face was terribly gloomy.

Who on earth had such great ability to stealthily empty all the valuables from the Su family?

The thought that his Su family now had nothing sent chills down Su Weiming's spine.

No.

Tonight's operation must not have any mishaps; he needs to scrutinize every detail again.

Thinking of this, Su Weiming hurried towards the study.
