However, Chen Youni still lived in Wudu later. People said that a lean camel is bigger than a horse.

Even though Chen Youni has stepped down, he still has some influence in Wudu.

Putting aside other things, it is not an easy task to deal with a small yamen runner like him.

Moreover, Chen Youni was well-known for being petty in Wudu.

Even a three-year-old child knows that his mind is smaller than the tip of a needle.

Peng Feixin didn't dare to offend him, so he had to stop beside Chen Youni.

He bowed to Chen Youni and said, "My lord, what do you want me to do?"

Chen Youni looked at Peng Feixin with the same attitude as usual, and did not look down on him just because he was not the county magistrate now.

Then he nodded with satisfaction.

First, he praised Peng Feixin: "You are a promising kid."

Then he asked, "What is the newcomer doing with the bailiffs at this hour?"

Peng Feixin's eyes flashed with just the right amount of confusion, and then he said to Chen Youni:

"Your Excellency, I don't know either.

Lord Wang only said that he was going out for a training exercise, but he didn’t say anything more specific.”

Chen Youni nodded and waved at Peng Feixin.

Peng Feixin clasped his fists towards Chen Youni and then wanted to walk out.

At this time, Chen Youni suddenly remembered something and said to Peng Feixin:

"Wait a minute, who is that? Where are you going? And where is that little girl? Where did she go?"

Peng Feixin rolled his eyes hard where Chen Youni couldn't see.

His eyes rolled up to the sky, but when he turned around, he put on a smiling face again.

Without showing any impatience, Chen Youni said respectfully:

"In reply to your words, Lord Wang asked me to go back to my hometown and inform Old Madam Wang that the eldest lady is now with Lord Wang."

After saying this, he paused, as if he was thinking whether he should say it or not.

Then, as if he had thought of something, he spoke again: "The eldest lady said she was tired and is now resting in the east wing."

Chen Youni knew and wanted to know, so he no longer cared about Peng Feixin who was still there.

He left with the help of Butler Chen.

Peng Feixin saw the two people walking away and pouted quietly on the spot.

As he walked, he muttered to himself, "Bah, what a joke. He doesn't even recognize his own people.

"That so-and-so, I have a name. You said one thing to my face and another behind my back, you deserve to never get promoted in your life."

After he vented his anger, he thought that Chen Youni must have had bad intentions when asking about the eldest lady's residence.

However, Peng Feixin was not worried at all. After all, he saw with his own eyes that the big tiger followed the eldest lady into the east wing.

If Chen Youni really dares to have any evil intentions, who knows who will be afraid of whom.

Peng Feixin was thinking about Chen Youni when he pushed open the door of the east wing and saw a ferocious tiger.

I guess Chen Youni was so scared that he peed his pants, and he laughed at the thought.

Although my mind was scattered and I was thinking about all sorts of things.

But he did not stop, he mounted his horse and galloped towards Fengcheng Lotus Village.

At this time, the Wang family was also waiting for Xiaomi at home with concern, but this time Xiaomi greeted Daya in advance.

The family didn't look for him everywhere, but waited at home.

Old Mrs. Wang was so anxious that she didn't even have dinner as it was getting darker.

Old Mrs. Wang became more and more worried, but she didn't dare to go looking for him in a big way.

For fear of delaying Xiaomi's business, he had to sit at the gate and look towards the village entrance from time to time.

Until the sun set, Old Lady Wang still hadn't waited for Xiaomi.

In the end, it was Zhang Xing'er and Zhao Lishui who persuaded Old Lady Wang to go back.

Zhang Xing'er hung two lanterns on the eaves of the courtyard gate, fearing that Xiaomi would come back too late and would not be able to see the road clearly and fall.

Then he said to Old Lady Wang who had been sitting at the gate:

"Mom, my dear must have been delayed by something, that's why he didn't come back.

You go back to sleep first, and when Guaibao comes back I will ask her to come to your room to report safety."

Old Mrs. Wang's eyes did not leave the direction of the village entrance. When she heard Zhang Xing'er's words, she just shook her head.

"It's still early, I'll wait a little longer and then I'll go back.

Go back to sleep now."

At this time, Zhao Lishui bent down and touched Old Lady Wang's hand.

Although it is already summer, it is still a bit chilly at night.

Old Mrs. Wang had been guarding the door. The evening breeze kept blowing, and she was getting cold easily as she was old.

Zhao Lishui touched Old Lady Wang's hand, which was already a little cold.

So Zhao Lishui squatted down, put her hands on Old Lady Wang's hands, and warmed them.

She kept persuading Old Lady Wang: "Mom, please go back quickly. I will stay here.

If you get cold, your baby will be heartbroken when he comes back.

By then, my dear will be tired after a day's work and will have to take care of you."

Old Mrs. Wang opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but she knew Xiaomi's temper.

If I really caught a cold, Xiaomi would definitely be heartbroken when she came back.

So he followed Zhang Xing'er and Zhao Lishui back to the house, but did not take down the lanterns on the eaves.

Moreover, Old Lady Wang didn't let them close the door to the yard.

I just thought that when Xiaomi comes back, she will not have trouble seeing the road with the lantern.

The door is not closed, Xiaomi will know as soon as he comes back.

Several people went back to their rooms, saying that they wanted to persuade Old Lady Wang to have a good rest.

However, after returning to the room, none of them rested.

Lie on the bed with your clothes on, and if you hear any noise in the yard, you can go out to check.

Even in the kitchen, Old Lady Wang was warming chicken soup in a clay pot over a low fire.

Just wait for Xiaomi to come back and then I can drink the hot chicken soup.

I don’t know when they waited, but they all fell asleep in a daze.

There was no sound of Xiaomi coming back, and the only sound in the yard was Wang Zhuzi's non-stop snoring.

The next day, Old Mrs. Wang got up before dawn and went to Xiaomi's room tapping her shoes.

I opened the door and looked inside the room, but didn't see Xiaomi in the room.

He walked towards Zhang Xing'er's room without giving up, and said to Zhang Xing'er at the door:

"Second brother's, is the sweet baby in your room?"

Zhang Xing'er didn't sleep much at night. As soon as Old Lady Wang spoke, she immediately opened her eyes.

I looked around the bed, but didn't see Xiaomi.

Knowing that Xiaomi had not come back yet, Zhang Xing'er frowned tightly.

I looked at the bed with some worry, wondering why Xiaomi hadn't come back yet.

As a mother, I didn't see my child all night.

Zhang Xing'er began to have wild thoughts, fearing that something might happen to Xiaomi and she would not be able to protect her.

But it only took a moment for Zhang Xing'er to quickly control the emotions on her face.

She said gently to Old Lady Wang outside the room, "Mom, my sweet baby hasn't come back yet. Don't worry, he will probably be back soon."

When Old Lady Wang heard what Zhang Xing'er said, she knew that Xiaomi had not returned yet.
