After the system ran, I took off with my family

"Yes, miss, I'll go right away."

Yu Tan responded crisply, her slightly lowered eyelids hiding the hidden joy in her eyes.

...

In a private room on the second floor of Xuanhe Tower, Tang Wanchu propped up her head and looked at the people coming and going on the street. After watching for a while, she turned her head to look at Lin Shuyue who was slowly brewing tea. After thinking for a while, she tilted her head and said, "Ayue, do you remember the last time I told you that I heard Jiang Yi and Zhao Xuan quarreling?"

Lin Shuyue raised her eyebrows when she heard the voice and nodded, "Yeah, I remember. What's the matter?" Is there any follow-up?

"My father said that Liu Xu confessed. He said that Liu Xu set fire to the pleasure boat because he listened to the instigation of Zhao Xuan's fiancée Li Mei."

Tang Wanchu walked over to Lin Shuyue and sat down. He picked up the grapes on the plate and threw them into his mouth, then continued:

"According to Liu Xu, Li Mei cried in front of him a few days ago, saying that Zhao Xuan had a bad temper and was full of ulterior motives. She didn't want to marry Zhao Xuan, but because the two families were closely related, she was powerless to resist.

Liu Xu had always had a crush on Li Mei, and when he heard her crying, he became malicious.

On the night of the Qiqiao Festival, he disguised himself as a servant and found an opportunity to sneak into the pleasure boat where Zhao Xuan was. While everyone's attention was on the pleasure boat, he sneaked into the cabin and planned to poison Zhao Xuan's wine glass. In a panic, he accidentally knocked over the oil lamp in the cabin, which led to the fire in the pleasure boat. "

"Why did the pleasure boat where Jiang Yi was also on fire?"

Lin Shuyue glanced at the juice at the corner of Tang Wanchu's mouth, handed her her handkerchief, and motioned for her to wipe her mouth.

Tang Wanchu took the handkerchief, wiped his mouth carelessly, and then grinned, "Hehe, Jiang Yi is such a poor guy, I don't know how he offended his personal servant.

According to Liu Xu's account, after seeing the pleasure boat on fire, he was afraid of being discovered, so he jumped into the water from the window.

Looking at the young men in chaos on the pleasure boat, he felt unwilling to accept this, so he relied on his good swimming skills and hid in the dark corner of another pleasure boat, staring at the position where Zhao Xuan was, planning to find an opportunity to take action.

At this moment, he suddenly saw a man dressed as a servant on the next-door barge. After seeing the fire on Zhao Xuan's barge, he sneaked into the cabin and used the candle on the table to light the gauze curtain by the window. This was the truth about the fire on Jiang Yi's barge.

"As for the servant who set the fire, according to his description, we found out that the servant was actually Jiang Yi's personal servant, Jiang Shun. However, Jiang Shun was struck to death by a strange thunder that night, so it is impossible to verify whether Jiang Shun set the fire or not."

"So that's how it is." Lin Shuyue suddenly realized, and then asked curiously: "Has Li Mei been arrested?"

"He was caught, but he was only spanked with a few sticks and scolded."

At this point, Tang Wanchu was a little angry, "This Li Mei's mind is too vicious. She defended herself by saying that she never expressed her intention to let Liu Xu kill Zhao Xuan. She just cried in front of Liu Xu that she didn't want to marry Zhao Xuan, and she didn't know that Liu Xu would kill someone."

"Because of her half-truthful words, four lives were lost. Isn't she afraid that those wronged souls will come to find her in the middle of the night?"

"Okay, okay, don't be angry." Lin Shuyue poured her a cup of tea. "God is watching what people do. Her retribution will come sooner or later."

Tang Wanchu curled his lips, took a gulp of water, and asked, "Ayue, are you going back to Sishui County in a few days?"

Lin Shuyue nodded, "Well, we'll go back after the branch here gets back on track in a few days."

After returning, she should prepare for the long journey, but she has to think carefully about how to get her parents to agree to let her travel far away alone.

"Okay, I might have to go to the capital with my mother in a few days. My cousin is pregnant, and my mother wants to go see her."

After saying that, Tang Wanchu grabbed Lin Shuyue's hand, with a grateful look on his face, "Ayue, thank you, thanks to your previous advice, my cousin was able to cheer up.

After these days of hard work, my cousin has gradually been able to help her mother-in-law with household affairs. After she became pregnant, she took the initiative to find a few concubines for her cousin-in-law. My cousin said that although her cousin-in-law doesn't often come to her room now, he still respects her, and no one in the Wang family dares to bully her.

"Really? That's great!"

Lin Shuyue was extremely relieved. In this world that was so harsh on women, it was really not easy for the cousin of the Tang family to find her own way out of the mud.

A few days passed in a flash. On this day, the Lin family got up early as they were going to set off back to Sishui County.

After breakfast, Li called all the servants in the house to her side and gave them a lecture, while Lin Shuyue called Li Yuan to the study.

"Uncle Li, I'll leave Xunweilou in the city to you."

Li Yuan bowed and said solemnly: "Miss, don't worry, I will take good care of Xunweilou."

Lin Shuyue nodded, "Well, Qinghe strongly recommended you, so I have confidence in you. If you have any urgent matters in the future, just write a letter and come here to find Qingyang. He will know what to do."

A few days ago, when she was walking on the street, she happened to see someone selling pigeons, so she bought two.

After these days of training and the lure of the spiritual spring water, the two pigeons have become qualified carrier pigeons.

In this way, she no longer had to use the cuckoo to deliver letters. She still remembered the shock Xiao Zhennian expressed in his letter when she first communicated with him. He had never seen anyone use a cuckoo to deliver letters.

Yesterday she had already told Qingyang to send a pigeon message to her if he had any problems in the future.

By the time the Lin family set off, the sun had already risen and was staring at all living things on the earth.

The carriage slowly drove out of Wutong Lane. There were not as many people on the street as usual at this time. When the carriage passed East Street, it suddenly heard a noise ahead.

Lin Shuyue lifted the curtain and looked out, and saw that the Jiang family's gate was crowded with a group of people, staring at the basket of wedding money in the hands and behind the housekeeper Jiang who was standing on the steps at the gate of the Jiang family.

Housekeeper Jiang glanced at the crowd and said loudly, "Today, Miss Jiang is getting married. My master is kind-hearted and has specially prepared a hundred taels of money for the wedding. Please share in the good fortune!"

"One hundred taels!"

"The Jiang family is so generous!"

"Congratulations to Miss Jiang's wedding!"

His words caused a commotion in the crowd, and people stared at Xi Qian even more intensely.

Butler Jiang looked at everyone's reactions, nodded with satisfaction, then grabbed a handful of copper coins and scattered them out onto the stairs.

As the copper coin fell to the ground, there was a crisp and pleasant "clattering" sound.

Then, the adults and children in the crowd rushed forward one after another. For a moment, the only sounds at the gate of Jiang's house were the adults' annoyance and scolding, the children's crying, and the scolding of the Jiang family's servants...
