After rebirth, I teamed up with the scumbag's mistress

Wei Suxin asked, "What happened to that couple later?"

"They must have been fed drugs. No matter how we called them, we couldn't wake them up. So Shihua and I had no choice but to carry them both to the secret room in the study." Ping Yun said.

"Those flaming arrows almost killed us several times, but luckily we managed to dodge them." Shihua said with some relief.

"Fortunately, Shihua knew where the secret room was, otherwise we would all have died. The flaming arrows kept shooting from the outer wall of the house, and the back of the house should have been on fire, but the secret room in the study was underground, so we were all fine. We stayed there in fear for three days before we went out." Ping Yun said.

"Where did Zhou Junsheng and his wife go after they came out?" Wei Suxin asked anxiously.

"Mr. Zhou was worried that his wife would be disturbed by gossip, and he also knew that the fire was aimed at them. Mr. Zhou went south and said he was going to Yuhang." Ping Yun replied.

"Do you have their specific address?" Wei Suxin asked.

Pingyun and Shihua both shook their heads.

"Thank you for your hard work, mothers." Wei Suxin said, taking a handful of barley from Qiandai's purse and giving a handful to each of them.

Pingyun and Shihua thanked her repeatedly, "Thank you for the reward, madam. Thank you!"

"Thanks to you this time, I will increase your monthly salary by one or two taels of silver," said Wei Suxin.

"Thank you, madam. Thank you, madam." The two said gratefully.

"You guys go and get busy." Wei Suxin said.

The two bowed and left.

"Madam, what should we do now? Are you going to Yuhang?" Qiandai said.

"Go." Wei Suxin said with determination.

"But Yuhang is a long way, and your trip will cost a lot." Qiandai covered Wei Suxin's purse and said with some pain.

"Why don't you find someone to run errands?" Qiandai said.

"No, I'm worried." Wei Suxin said.

"When you go, the food, drinks and accommodation must all be of the best quality, and you must also find warriors to protect you. A trip will cost a lot of money." Qiandai held Wei Suxin's purse tightly in her hand and said with great heartache.

"Qiandai, can you be more generous and hire ten or twenty more warriors? Otherwise, I'm afraid something might happen to Zhou Junsheng and his wife on the way." Wei Suxin said.

"What? Ten or twenty warriors?" Qiandai almost fainted. Really, just kill her.

My God, you don’t know how expensive firewood and rice are if you don’t run the household. It will cost hundreds of taels of silver for these ten warriors to go there.

"Qiandai, after we found Zhou Junsheng and his wife, I was afraid that the news would leak out on the way and let Li Jianzhang and the others know. Then there might be a fierce fight." Wei Suxin said patiently, holding Qiandai's hand.

"Ah." Qian Dai sighed, "I understand, my lady, I will arrange it."

"Thank you, Qiandai. I knew you were the best." Wei Suxin said with a smile.

Qiandai looked at Wei Suxin and burst out laughing.

Afterwards, Qiandai carefully prepared all the supplies Wei Suxin needed for her trip to Yuhang, and went to the escort agency to hire fifteen warriors.

After all this shopping, Qiandai's heart ached and her wallet was bleeding.

After everything was ready, Wei Suxin and his party set off the next day. After a bumpy journey, they finally arrived in Yuhang half a month later.

Yuhang is indeed a prosperous town in the south. Once you enter the city, you will see shops on both sides of the street, and people coming and going in an endless stream. There are also many small stalls on the street, and the voices of vendors hawking their wares are heard one after another, which is really full of fireworks.

"Let's find an inn to settle down first." Wei Suxin said to Qiandai in the carriage.

"Yes, ma'am." Qiandai replied.

Then she lifted a corner of the carriage curtain and said to the driver, "Sir, let's find a good inn. My wife will stay there first."

After returning to the carriage and sitting down, Qiandai said to Wei Suxin: "My lady, Yuhang is so lively."

Wei Suxin lifted the curtain and looked outside, then lowered it and said, "Yes, it's really lively here."

"With so many people, how can we find Zhou Junsheng and his wife?" Qiandai said.

"Our Wei family's ancestors traveled far and wide and made friends with many merchants, including the Zhuang family. The Zhuang family has been doing business for generations and is a big merchant in Yuhang. They should be well-informed." Wei Suxin said.

"Madam, we have arrived at the inn." The coachman's voice was heard, and the carriage slowly stopped.

Qiandai got out of the car first, and Wei Suxin then helped her get down holding her hand.

"Boyun Inn." Wei Suxin looked up at the inn. It was a three-story building, quite large, with a plaque with gold letters on a black background. Business seemed good, with many people coming in and out of the door.

Wei Suxin took Qiandai and walked inside to the front desk of the inn.

The front desk was a long black wooden table that separated the people inside from those outside. A waiter was talking and smiling to another guest. Behind him were a number of wooden signs with black backgrounds and gold letters, and red tassels at the bottom.

There was another waiter at the front desk. When he saw Wei Suxin and Qian Dai approaching, he smiled and asked, "Madam, are you here to stay overnight or to stay at the hotel?"

"Stay in a hotel. I want a good room with two bunk beds. I have fifteen warriors and a coachman with me. Can they accommodate us?" Wei Suxin asked.

"Madam, there is room for you. How many days will you stay here?" the waiter asked with a smile.

"Please pay for three days first." Wei Suxin said.

"It's two taels of silver in total," said the clerk.

Qiandai took out two taels of silver from her purse and gave them to the waiter.

The waiter took the money and walked out, saying, "Madam, I will take you to your room. I will also arrange for your warriors and coachmen later."

"Thank you very much." Wei Suxin said politely.

"This is my duty. Please come this way." The waiter led Wei Suxin in front.

Wei Suxin and Qiandai arrived at the room, packed up their things, and prepared to go out to deliver the invitation to the banker.

The two of them took a carriage to the Zhuang family. The Zhuang family's wife happened to be at home. When she heard that it was the lady from the Wei family who came to visit, she quickly asked a maid to take the person in.

The Zhuang family's reception hall, both the house and the tables and chairs, are all made of the finest golden nanmu wood. The tables and chairs are carved with intricate floral and bird patterns, which makes it look extraordinary and luxurious.

The teacup on the table is from the Lotus series, a masterpiece produced by Ru Kiln.

Wei Suxin bowed and sat down. She was not nervous at all and sat in the hall with ease.

"Madam Wei has come from afar, I'm sorry for not welcoming you in person, but are you here in Yuhang to do work for the Wei family?" Madam Zhuang said with a smile.

"No, I'm just here to do something for a friend. Thinking that the Zhuang family is here and we have been friends for generations, I came to visit the madam." Wei Suxin replied with a smile.

"Madam Wei, please have a drink of this tea. This is the new tea that our family's teahouse has recently harvested. It is very refreshing." Madam Zhuang said.

"Good tea. It leaves a lingering fragrance on your teeth and cheeks, and the aftertaste is also good." Wei Suxin said after taking a sip.

"Mrs. Zhuang, do you know that about eight months ago, a scholar named Zhou and his wife came to Yuhang from Kyoto?" Wei Suxin asked.
