Planning to marry the third master

Several carriages entered the city, and Hu Cong led officials from the Ministry of Revenue to the post station. The entrance was full of soldiers, guarding it closely. Before he could ask any questions, a soldier stopped him and said, "Go, go, go, the place is full."

Hu Cong had no choice but to say to Xie Yunhao, "Please ask Mr. Xie to take the Xie family to the Xie family's place of residence."

Then he said to Lu Chengfeng: "Take the officials and find an inn."

Lu Chengfeng looked at the post station and nodded.

The public and private troops were separated and marched in two teams.

Hu Cong stood at the entrance of the post station. He wanted to understand the situation first, so he said to the person at the entrance, "But General Yang is here?"

"Who are you?"

"Thank you, Third Master's steward Hu Cong."

The soldier didn't understand the situation, and didn't know much about the Xie family. He only knew that not everyone could see Yang Shuai, especially a steward. He said, "I haven't heard of it. Go away. Not everyone can see our Marshal."

Hu Cong frowned, looked at the entire post station, turned around, and settled down first. Then he followed Xie Yunhao in front of him.

The two children got out of the carriage and looked around. They came to a new place that was very interesting. Xie Xinyu said, "Second Uncle, let's not hurry on. We don't want to hurry on."

Xie Yunhao couldn't bear it, let alone the two children, and said, "Let's not hurry. We can't hurry until we rest for a few days. No one can ask us to hurry."

Xie Xinyu asked: "Where is my father? Is he here?"

"We are here to reunite with your father, otherwise why are we here?"

"Okay, I want Daddy."

Xie Yunhao couldn't help but ask: "Is Second Uncle not good to you?"

"Okay."

"I'm telling you, when you grow up don't forget how good your second uncle was to you." Xie Yunhao took advantage of Xie Xinyu's young age and tried to curry favor with her, otherwise he would have no chance in the future.

Xie Xinyu couldn't help but say, "I know, Second Uncle has said it several times."

"Can you remember it without telling me more?"

Hu Quan tugged at Xie Xinyu's sleeve and said, "Wait for my dad. He's walking alone."

Xie Xinyu said: "Second uncle, wait for the master."

Xie Yunhao said: "Okay, whatever you say."

He said to the driver, "Stop for a moment and wait for Manager Hu."

The team stopped and waited for Hu Cong. Hu Cong stepped forward and was not in a hurry to get on the carriage. He told Zong Qiang and Zong Qing, "You two go to a place called Guiyuefang and see if the Third Master's wife is there. There is also someone named Qingyue."

"Yes." The two responded.

Then Hu Cong got on the carriage.

Xie Yunhao heard Hu Cong's instructions and asked, "Why is my third brother's wife here?"

Hu Cong didn't reply, and said to the driver, "Let's go."

Xie Yunhao was a talkative person, and he couldn't help but say, "Could it be that because my sister-in-law came to Longnan, my third brother was worried and came here first? Our large group has been making too much trouble because of her. Eh? No, Feng Zhuohua doesn't seem to be such an ignorant person."

Hu Cong didn't say anything, but Xie Xinyu heard her mother's name and couldn't help but ask, "My mother? Is my mother here too? I miss my mother."

Hu Cong said to Xie Xinyu: "Second Master Xie, you heard wrongly. Your mother is in Bianjing and not here."

"Hey, I mean, if I heard it wrong, who is the Third Master's wife? Is there another one outside?"

Hu Cong was really impressed by Second Master Xie. He couldn't tell what the situation was, so he said, "Second Master Xie, please don't talk nonsense. You must have heard it wrong just now."

Xie Xinyu was immediately disappointed and said, "I really miss my mother."

Hu Quan also said: "I miss mom too."

Hu Cong fanned himself without saying anything.

At this moment, Xie Yunhao also shut up and glanced at Hu Cong. This man is capable and competent, but he never speaks clearly.

Zong Qiang and Zong Qing were dressed as warriors, naturally different from the officers and soldiers. There were not many people in Guiyuefang during the day, but there were a few young ladies and apprentices coming in and out.

Zong Qiang asked the people in Guiyuefang in a gentle voice, "Excuse me, are Mrs. Xie and a girl named Qingyue here?"

Miss Bai stopped walking when she heard this and looked at the person who came over. He seemed to be a guard.

The gatekeeper also looked at the person who came and said truthfully, "He is no longer in the neighborhood. Look for him somewhere else."

Miss Bai asked, "Are you servants of that silly lady?"

Silly lady?

Zong Qing couldn't help but say: "Don't be rude, my wife is not stupid."

Bai Zhuo'er immediately felt that he had said something wrong and said, "I'm sorry, wait a minute, I'll go to the building and ask the masters."

Having said that, he entered the Boudoir House.

At this time, Chen Jiangting had just sent someone into Guiyuefang through the back door. Not long after going upstairs, a little girl came in to take a look. Seeing that the person was really there, she said, "Sister Qingyue, there are people at the gate looking for their wife and you."

Hearing this, Qing Yue immediately stood up, almost running, and jumped down from the second floor using the red silk. Even Chen Jiangting couldn't stop her.

Qing Yue saw the man and said, "Where is the Third Master? Take me to find him."

Zong Qiang said, "The Third Master left separately from us. I don't know if he has arrived yet. Manager Hu arrived first."

"Then take me there quickly."

"Where is Third Grandma?"

"She is in the hands of that old bastard Yang Ji. Now take me to see Manager Hu first."

Zong Qiang nodded.

Chen Jiangting followed and said, "Wait, I'll go too."

Qingyue turned around and nodded to Zong Qiang.

The Xie family’s settlement in Longnan was not big, but not small either. By the time the horses and belongings were moved in, it was almost noon.

Hu Cong was holding a fan and watching the children practicing in the courtyard of the quadrangle. His eyebrows were furrowed. According to what was said in the letter, the matter must be serious. The Gu worm is a secret technique that is rare in the world, just like the Xiaoxiang Secret Technique. It is generally not easily revealed to the public, and very few people would want to use this method. The Xiaoxiang Secret Technique is used on dead people, while the Miaojiang Gu worm is tested on living people. Moreover, the lifespan of the worm is not long. A male worm only lives for two or three months. If a person is burned twice, the worm will be gone. If it is a female worm, the problem will be serious. The worm will continue to reproduce. In less than a year, the worms raised can eat up the brain marrow. Once the container dies, the Gu worm will crawl out of the ear.

Yang Ji and the Third Master probably don't have any deep hatred. At most, he wants to use this method to temporarily control Xie Sanyou.

Hu Cong was fanning himself in deep thought when he saw Qing Yue at the door with a swollen face walking towards him, crying aggrievedly as she walked. If you didn't know, you would think he was someone to her.

Hu Cong stood up and walked forward, saying to Qing Yue who was approaching, "What's wrong with you? Why are you being bullied like this?"

Qingyue said: "Do you know that it is difficult for me to hide people? Why didn't you come a few days earlier?"

The two were familiar with each other and spoke casually. Hu Cong couldn't help but ask: "What are your usual methods of dealing with people?"

"Can I deal with that old bastard Yang Ji with my tactics?"

"Did he hit you in the face?"

"Who else do you think there is?"

Hu Cong asked, "How is the Madam?"

"They are no longer human. They can't eat or sleep without a bell."

Hu Cong lowered his eyes. It should be a male one. He had known about it, but he had never understood it in depth.

Chen Jiangting saw Hu Cong and asked, "Is Third Master Xie here?"

Hu Cong then noticed that there was another person behind him and said, "Boss Chen."

"The two groups that Third Master and I divided into have not arrived yet. I think they went to Longxi."

"What!" Qing Yue couldn't help but ask, "Didn't I send the letter a long time ago?"

Hu Cong rolled his eyes and said, "You said you spread it early. If you had spread it earlier, it wouldn't have reached Longnan."

Qingyue was speechless. Indeed, if she didn't listen to her, she should have sent the message earlier.
