Rebirth of the Merchant Woman's Revenge
Chapter 106: Mr. Bao's Detective Cases
Chunxiu looked at the paper in confusion. She was illiterate. What would be on the paper that Mrs. Xie gave her?
She took it, opened it and took a look, tears welled up in her eyes. Although she was illiterate, she recognized the paper, it was her indenture.
This was the contract signed when her mother sold her to the Gu family as a maid. She thought she would be a slave for the rest of her life, but she never expected that one day she would hold this piece of paper in her hands again.
They arrived at Liuzhou Chunxiu's home around the end of the You hour. Xie Cheng'an's servant Shuangrui was being taken out of the house at this time. He was dressed in tight clothes, but was tied up and looked dejected.
"Mom, mom, brother," Chunxiu shouted in horror when she saw this situation, and trotted into the yard.
With a "slap", her mother saw that it was her and slapped her in the face. At this time, her face was full of anger and she blurted out curses, "You are a money-loser. You can't pay the monthly salary, and you always cause trouble for the family. Why don't you just die..."
Chunxiu covered her cheeks with her hands in response, tears welling up in her eyes. She missed her family so much, but her mother treated her like this every time she came back. If it weren't for her brother's protection, she might have been tortured to death by her own mother.
"Mom, how is my brother?" She still endured the pain and asked, her eyes looking towards the house with concern.
"Xiu'er, come in quickly." A weak male voice sounded in the room, and Chunxiu turned around and was about to go in.
But her mother stopped her, "Did you bring the money back? Did you receive last month's salary?"
Chunxiu had no choice but to give all the silver she had on her to her mother, and then she went into the house with her face covered.
Sang Mo watched all this coldly, without saying a word, and did not interfere in their family affairs. After Chunxiu came out of the house, he sighed deeply and said helplessly, "There is a Jinxiu Pavilion in Liuzhou, which is also the property of my master. If you are willing, I will arrange for you to go there."
Chunxiu knew that Sang Mo was thinking about her, but she shook her head. "I didn't tell my mother that I had already obtained the indenture. She thought I was still working for Aunt Gu, so I plan to go back to the capital and ask the official to help me find a job in the capital, so that if Madam Xie has any problems, I can help."
Sang Mo nodded. Fortunately, Chunxiu was smart. If she had told her mother everything, she might have been sold to another mansion again, or she might have received a betrothal gift and married off early.
The situation on Shuangrui's side was not so good. As soon as he entered Chunxiu's house, he was caught by two guards who had been lying in ambush in advance. He could only stretch out his hands, and was no match for the people brought by Sang Mo. He was captured after just one encounter.
At this moment, he had a dejected look on his face, and sat dejectedly on a stool in the corner, not saying a word.
Sang Mo didn't expect him to say anything now. What he had to do was to send him to the Dali Temple alive. Then the mission would be accomplished. The remaining interrogation would be Yan Nangui's business.
In order to prevent any trouble, Sang Mo took Shuangrui back to the capital at full speed overnight. It was already midnight when he arrived at the city gate. Lord Yan had arranged for someone to pick him up there.
After successfully entering the Dali Temple, Sang Mo first bowed to Yan Nangui, and then said, "Everything went well, Lord Yan, thank you for your concern."
Yan Nangui glanced at him and said calmly, "We agreed to just help you with a small favor, how come you've caused such a big thing now?"
Sang Mo quickly explained, "Well, the master didn't expect it to be like this, so now you can see if you can pry open Shuang Rui's mouth. If you can't, find a reason to release Gu Qiongsi."
"Is there anyone whose mouth can't be pried open?" Yan Nangui asked coldly.
"Bah, bah, bah. Look at my mouth. What I mean is, if you can pry it open, don't pry it open. Hu Er, the chess piece, cannot be moved now, and all the relevant personnel must be alive and well. Maybe this will become the master's trump card and will be of great use in the future." Sang Mo narrowed his eyes and looked at Yan Nangui mysteriously.
"Xiao Gui, don't have such a stern face all day long. You will age quickly if you keep doing this." He finally couldn't hold it in anymore and started chatting with Lord Yan.
Yan Nangui looked helpless. The two playmates had grown up together and knew each other too well. How could they possibly be serious?
"Since it's such an important matter, should I go to the palace to meet your master? It should have been necessary last time, right?" Yan Nangui also made a rare joke.
"Have you finished reading Lord Bao's detective collection? Actually, it has two volumes, and the lower volume is in Your Highness's warehouse." Sang Mo had a wicked smile on his face and looked at Yan Nangui with burning eyes.
"Humph," Yan Nangui rolled his eyes, "I knew that His Highness had me in his hands. He wanted to treat me like a donkey, and he just put a carrot in front of me and refused to let me eat it."
Sang Mo couldn't hold back his laughter and laughed out loud. This metaphor was really too apt.
As the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, Yan Nangui should be impartial and serve the emperor wholeheartedly, but he couldn't help it when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked Sang Mo to come to him from time to time, saying that he had collected a few new detective records in his warehouse, or some strange stories, which seduced him and made him unable to control himself.
"Don't worry, Lord Yan. Once this matter is over, His Highness will definitely give it to you." Sang Mo smiled and bowed, then turned around to walk out.
"Wait, what's going on with Madam Xie? This is the first time His Highness has asked me for help." Yan Nangui finally asked this question. He had been thinking about this question recently, but he couldn't figure it out.
Sang Mo turned around, looked out the door, opened the window and saw that there was no one there. Then he turned back and sat next to Yan Nangui. He stretched out his hand to whisper in his ear, but was pushed away by the other party. The hem of his clothes was pulled out from under his buttocks. He frowned and said, "What's wrong with you?"
"Tsk tsk," Sang Mo looked helpless, but still moved a little closer to him, and then lowered his voice and said, "Madam Xie is my lifesaver, and has helped His Highness a lot, so in the future, I hope Lord Yan can help more, I will be very grateful."
Yan Nangui looked at Sang Mo as if he were an idiot, with a look of disbelief on his face. How could a lady from the inner house save the chief of the guards, Sang Mo? And also help the prince a lot?
How could it sound so unbelievable?
