Chapter 298: Meng Yunzheng and Zhao Xi Are Not Around
Chapter 298: Meng Yunzheng and Zhao Xi Are Not Around
The black market was located outside Jiangyuan County, but the exact location was unknown. It was likely situated on someone's estate. The market was scheduled to open in three days. The jade pendant served as proof, and once at the black market, showing the pendant would lead to someone guiding to the estate. It seemed that if no one accompanied them, it would be easy to encounter trouble, indicating the presence of hidden mechanisms and secret passages. With this information in mind, Shu Yu had a clear plan. When the time came, she would wait outside the city and follow anyone who might be heading to the black market, such as Young Master Ding Wenxi. Just as Shu Yu had the thought of Ding Wenxi, a messenger arrived from the young master. Xiaoyun entered and said, "The young master assures Miss Lu that Young Master Zhang and the others won't dare to trouble Miss Lu anymore." Shu Yu smiled and replied, "It seems that the young master has resolved the matter for me. I can rest assured then." Although she said this, she secretly felt fortunate that she had quickly obtained information about the black market. If she had been a step slower, she wouldn't have been able to extract information from Ding Yuehua by pretending to be clueless. With her clothes delivered and all the necessary questions answered, Shu Yu took her leave. After leaving the Ding residence, she headed straight back to Liufang Lane. As she passed by the entrance of the Meng residence, Shu Yu paused and turned her head to look at the closed gate. Ever since the day she mentioned that Master Dongqing might have gone southwest, Meng Yunzheng and Zhao Xi had left the next day, and the gate to their house remained shut. Shu Yu thought that they must have gone to find Master Dongqing. She also hoped that Meng Yunzheng would find him soon because she had many doubts and wanted to ask her master. However, it bothered her that they had left without saying a word after knowing each other for some time. Feeling a bit uneasy, Shu Yu hmphed silently and continued walking in the direction of her home. Just as she lifted her foot, the gate of the neighboring house opened. A woman looked up and greeted her, "Oh, it's Miss Lu. Are you looking for Young Master Meng?" "Oh, no, I was just passing by and noticed their gate was locked. I was curious where they went." The woman smiled and said, "Before leaving, Young Master Meng asked us to look after his house. It seems they found a highly skilled doctor and went with Zhao Xi to seek treatment. They should be back in a few days. Didn't your grandmother tell you? I just informed her yesterday." The old lady had visited the Meng residence several times, arousing the curiosity of the neighbors about her relationship with the Meng family. The old lady didn't hide it and only mentioned that before Zhao Xi became dumb, he saved her son and granddaughter's lives. Now that they lived close by, she came to help them with some inconveniences. Meng Yunzheng and Zhao Xi, one dumb and one mute, were well-known in Liufang Lane. However, due to their good looks, most people sympathized with their situation. Furthermore, Meng Yunzheng always had a gentle smile, giving the impression of a good-tempered person. Therefore, the neighbors in Liufang Lane were willing to help them whenever possible. The old lady's behavior wasn't unusual since they were their lifesavers, and it was normal for the two families to have some interaction. As for Shu Yu, she had entered and left the Meng residence discreetly several times, without being seen by anyone. Therefore, the neighbors in Liufang Lane didn't think much of her visits. Listening to the woman's words, Shu Yu was somewhat surprised. She thought that Meng Yunzheng and Zhao Xi had left Jiangyuan County for the southwest and wouldn't return. But now they had asked the neighbors to look after their house? Did that mean they planned to come back?Special thanks to these patrons for their support!!!
