"Then he must have heard everything we said."

Wan Lianxing said: "He can hear some of it, but not everything. But it doesn't matter. He knows everything I said, and what he knows is far more than what you know."

Cheng Feng must know that Huang Chenming knows much more than him. Maybe he gave all these bad ideas to his uncle. Thinking that there are always ears or eyes watching them outside the wall of Wanlianxing, Cheng Feng feels uncomfortable all over. He doesn't know how his uncle developed this habit over the years. How can he get lost with a bunch of people around him watching him?

"Uncle, what kind of people do you keep around you?"

"They are all my uncle's confidants, and you are the only one who doesn't obey. But you helped my uncle a lot this time. My uncle was in need of people, and you got them for him. This time, there are 30,000 people. My uncle loves you for a reason."

"You love me? You love me but you still go to sow discord between my parents. You didn't see the ugly faces of my parents. When I first saw them, I was confused."

"That's because I said east, but you went west and opposed me. But this time, I thank you. With someone like you, I feel more confident. You did a good thing."

"My uncle and my father are of the same blood. We prosper together and suffer together."

"Feng'er has grown up and has a broader perspective."

Cheng Feng thought about it, as long as he was on the same front with Wan Lianxing, Wan Lianxing would say that he had grown up, otherwise he would definitely offend him, at the very least he would scold him, at the worst he would go to his parents and report him. This man was very sinister, he would betray everyone, and even his nephew could not escape his clutches.

...Five days later, Shang Xi finally set foot on the land of South City.

She sat down on the ground covered in dust and dirt. Ge Dongqing was not much better than her, but he was a man after all. He did not forget the purpose of coming to Nancheng and was still busy going to the mine to do business.

Shang Xi shook his head and said, "Uncle Ge, I can't go on any longer. I need to go home and rest for a day."

Suiying said, "Madam, we have to do our business first. Let's convince those people first, and then you can rest as you like."

Shang Xi said, "I really can't take it anymore. I'm not just sleepy. I'm in unbearable pain all over my body. I'm not exaggerating. My toes and fingers hurt. Also, my internal organs are about to be shattered on the horse's back. It hurts so much that even breathing hurts."

Suiying said, "You are just not good at horse riding, otherwise we would have reached South City in three days. Now we are already heading back one after another."

Shang Xi shook his head and said, "We have changed so many horses along the way. Horses need to rest, and so do I. If you want to go to the mine, go ahead. I must rest."

Shang Xi supported herself on the ground with her hands and sat up with difficulty. Although it didn't look very elegant, she would definitely not be able to stand up if she didn't do this.

"Madam, where are you going?"

"I'm going home. My house is just a small courtyard, and there are only women in the house. I can't entertain you grown men. You can go to the post station to rest."

Shang Xi walked away on her own. Unless a knife was put to her neck today, she would not go anywhere.

Shang Xi staggered back home. The door was closed. Shang Xi leaned against the door and knocked a few times. Xinyue ran out. Seeing Shang Xi's dull eyes and dishevelled appearance, Xinyue was a little afraid to recognize him. "Young Madam, is that you?"

If Shang Xi had a wooden stick in her hand at this moment, she would look like someone in trouble. If she had a bowl in her hand, she would be begging for food.

"it's me."

Xinyue quickly helped the person into the house and said, "Madam, why didn't you write a letter before you came back? Besides, why did you come back alone? Where are the others?"

"It's a long story. I came back with someone else this time."

Shang Xi was so tired that she could no longer speak. She drank some water and then lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

When Xinyue entered the room and asked her what she wanted to eat, this person was already snoring on the bed. This person never snored. Xinyue couldn't figure out what Shang Xi had experienced to end up in such a miserable state.

Shang Xi slept until the next morning without waking up once. Xinyue wanted to call a doctor for her, but at this moment, there was a loud knock on the door outside.

Xinyue hurried out to take a look. When she saw this, she held the door tightly and dared not let go: "Who are you looking for?"

"Shang Xi, does she live here?"

"Who are you?"

"I'm Suiying. She'll know once you tell her."

Xinyue glanced at the people outside and locked the door. She thought these people were not good people. She ran into Shang Xi's room and shook Shang Xi's arm desperately: "Shang Xi, there is a group of people outside, they are fierce and fierce, they said they are looking for you, wake up quickly, don't sleep anymore."

Shang Xi was finally woken up by her shaking, "Can you let me sleep a little longer?"

"No, there are a group of men outside looking for you, and they look ferocious and vicious."

Shang Xi was dragged up alive by Xinyue.

"Have you given your name?"

"I have reported it. What's his name? Suiying."

Shang Xi rubbed her face and yawned, "I'm going to take a shower and change clothes, you go and let them in."

"Let them in? They are all men, and one of them is more than ten feet tall, a big guy. What if they are bad guys?"

Shang Xi said: "They are our own people, let them in."

"OK?"

"If you don't open the door, I'm afraid they will remove our door."

Xinyue had no choice but to muster up the courage to open the door.

Everyone tied their horses outside the door and came in.

"They live in such a small yard." Suiying looked at the yard and felt it was too small. It was just a small courtyard. He didn't believe it when he heard Cheng Feng talk about it before. But when he saw it today, he felt that Cheng Feng and Shang Xi lived a very simple life, not at all as luxurious as the Wan family.

Ge Dongqing nodded, "Actually, this courtyard is nice. It should have been renovated not long ago, right? The red bricks and green tiles are obviously the courtyard of Cheng Feng and Shang Xi."

Xinyue replied, "This house has been renovated for less than two years."

"No wonder, look at the paint, it's still very bright, where is Shang Xiren?"

"Ah, my wife has gone to bathe and change her clothes, so let's go inside and have some tea first."

Suiying chuckled, "I thought the young lady hadn't woken up yet. She's usually lazy. After traveling for several days, she took good care of us by not crying for her parents."

An incense stick of time had passed, and Suiying could no longer sit still: "Is your young mistress still sleeping in bed? We have important matters to attend to, and it would be wrong to deceive us and delay our business."

Xinyue was a little scared when she saw Suiying's ferocious look, "My wife is really bathing and changing clothes."
