Hearing the commotion, Qian'Er, who was pacing back and forth in the main hall of the shop, glanced outside. When she saw the other red flowers in the woman's hair, her eyes flashed with surprise. She quickly ran out and shouted at the guards, "What are you doing? This is Madam's aunt. She's here to send Madam off! "
Since that was the case, the guards outside were in no position to stop her. On top of that, they knew that Qian 'er was Yun Zhiqiu's personal maid, so they waved a hand and had a female general search the woman's body. After ascertaining that there was nothing fishy going on, they allowed the woman to enter.
Qian 'Er looked at the woman with a questioning gaze, and the woman nodded slightly without batting an eyelid. Qian' Er heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly bowed. "Great Grandmother, please follow me!"
The two of them arrived at the backyard and went straight to the loft, entering the Blessed Enclave.
Yun Zhiqiu, who had been waiting inside, looked calm on the surface but was actually anxious on the inside. When he saw the other red flowers in his hair, he finally heaved a sigh of relief.
She had no choice but to be anxious. Her 'good days' were already in front of her, and the Glorious Cloud Pavilion had been surrounded. She was afraid that Miao Yi's plan was to kidnap the bride midway. If that was really the case, no matter how confident Miao Yi was, she would never agree to it. It wasn't something dangerous, but he was carried into the wedding sedan again? What would she look like if word got out? She was too sensitive about her past with Feng Xuan. Even though it couldn't be seen on the surface, in reality, she wasn't as carefree and strong as she looked on the surface. She couldn't go through this again.
The woman with the red flower in her hair looked unfamiliar. Yun Zhiqiu probed, "Were you sent by Niu Youde?"
A teasing look flashed across the woman's eyes. She smiled faintly and didn't reply. Instead, she slowly circled Yun Zhiqiu, scrutinizing her from head to toe.
Yun Zhiqiu frowned, unsure of what this person was up to. However, she soon sensed a faint trace of Demonic Qi in the air. At the same time, she also noticed that Qian 'Er and Xue' Er's eyes were wide open in shock. She quickly turned around to look, and her mouth was slightly agape. His eyes were filled with disbelief.
A smiling face looked at her, a familiar face that she often saw in the mirror. Wasn't this her own face? Apart from the difference in clothing and hairstyle, his height and physique seemed to be exactly the same.
He stared blankly at the other party standing in front of him with a smile. Yun Zhiqiu gradually came back to her senses. Hesitation flashed in her eyes as she recalled the trace of Demonic Qi she had sensed earlier. Her eyes suddenly lit up and she blurted out, "You're a fan of Lady Biyue?"
Back when she was in the Heaven Street of Heaven's Origin Planet, she and Lady Biyue were old acquaintances. She also often went to the City Guard Palace to deliver jewelry to Madam Bi Yue. Madam Bi Yue often carried the pink Thousand-faced Demon Fox in her arms. In addition, she learned some secrets from Miao Yi, so she knew the abilities of the Thousand-faced Demon Fox.
"How boring. You actually recognized me." 'Yun Zhiqiu' suddenly covered her mouth and giggled. Her cute and mischievous demeanor was completely unlike Yun Zhiqiu herself. She chuckled and said, "It's been many years since we last met, Lady Boss of the Cloud Beauty Restaurant. I didn't expect that we would meet again in such a manner!"
He was right. She was indeed the Thousand-faced Demon Fox that Miao Yi had borrowed from Madam Biyue.
"It really is you?" Yun Zhiqiu exclaimed in surprise. "Why did Niu Youde invite you here?"
Pink shook her head and sighed. "You think I wanted to come? I hate that guy the most. He doesn't have the slightest bit of manliness. This time, he even tried to coerce me into working for him. What kind of person is he?! But I really didn't expect this either. I've only heard rumors about you and Niu Youde in the past. I didn't think the two of you would actually end up together. Tsk tsk! "
Yun Zhiqiu rolled her eyes at her, then furrowed her brows. "Don't tell me Niu Youde wants you to become me and get married in my place?" If that was the case, it would be no different from her getting married herself. It would still damage her reputation. She wouldn't agree to it either.
"You wish. If I were to really be carried into a bridal sedan chair and surrounded by soldiers, how would I be able to escape?" Pink scoffed and looked around. Pink snorted and looked around. "Don't just stand there. Do you still have the clothes that Lady Boss usually wears? Hurry up and help me dress up. I have to leave soon. "
"Leave?" Yun Zhiqiu was stunned. "How are you going to leave?"
"Don't worry about it. That 'adulterer' of yours had it all planned out long ago. " Pink said bluntly. She waved her hand and said, "Hurry up, hurry up. If you're too late and mess things up, that bastard might go back on his word!"
Yun Zhiqiu relaxed when she heard that she had come prepared. She immediately waved for Qian 'Er and Xue' Er to bring her to change.
Not long after, another 'Yun Zhiqiu' walked out of the room. Standing next to Yun Zhiqiu, they looked like twins. Even Yun Zhiqiu shook her head in amazement. "You've even concealed your demonic aura so well. Your innate supernatural power is truly impressive."
Xue 'Er said, "I still don't think they look alike."
Qian 'Er nodded. "They do look alike, but their temperaments are too different. They're not as elegant as Madam's."
Pink immediately threw up and ran back into the room. "Fine! Then I won't do it. Your Madam has such a good temperament. Let her enter the bridal sedan chair. I can't be bothered to take such a risk. "
Yun Zhiqiu hurriedly pulled her back and comforted her. "They spoke without restraint. What's the point of bickering with them? I'll apologize to you, that's all."
Qian'Er and Xue'Er, who had regained their pride, gave Qian'Er and Xue'Er another round of scolding. Only after the two of them lowered their heads and admitted their mistakes did Qian'Er and Xue'Er finally let out a satisfied sigh. She then looked at Yun Zhiqiu's chest and asked, "They're a little big.
'Look at the situation now!' Yun Zhiqiu was about to call her 'Great Aunt'. "What should we do next?"
Pink flung her sleeves. "There's nothing else for you to do. Hide here and don't go out. Wait for your man to notify you before you show yourself." She pointed at Qian 'Er and Xue' Er. "Come with me."
Qian 'Er and Xue' Er looked at Yun Zhiqiu. The latter knew that Miao Yi wouldn't let anything happen to them, so she nodded and allowed them to go with her.
"What's with that look in your eyes? What's with your attitude? How dare you say I don't look like her? Even if you look like her, you're still going to screw it up. Just pretend that I'm her. Pretend that I'm your Lady Boss, do you understand … "Pink 'Er's reprimanding voice drifted over. Yun Zhiqiu couldn't help but rub her fair forehead, feeling a headache coming on.' Why does this vixen seem so unreliable? Can Miao Yi ask her to do something like this? '
However, even if she couldn't, she had no choice. She could only trust in Miao Yi's preparations, but she couldn't help feeling a headache coming on. Why did Miao Yi always do dangerous things like this? It was almost as if he was used to it. Wasn't he afraid that something would happen?
Seeing 'Yun Zhiqiu' appear, Old Fan, the carpenter, and the stonemason in the courtyard all looked over. They were clearly worried about the upcoming matter and didn't know why Yun Zhiqiu was going to the front hall. They couldn't help but silently follow behind her.
When 'Yun Zhiqiu' reached the front hall, 'Yun Zhiqiu' led Qian 'Er and Xue' Er straight out the door.
The guard at the door turned around to look, only to be stopped by the commander surnamed Kang. He cupped his fists and asked, "Shopkeeper, where are you going?"
'Yun Zhiqiu' didn't seem to be in a good mood today. Her fans knew that there was a difference in their temperaments, so she kept a straight face and said, "I'm going out of the city for a while."
Kang was taken aback. He lifted his head and smiled, "Shopkeeper, something good is about to happen. The Lieutenant has repeatedly instructed us not to let anything happen to Shopkeeper, so we wouldn't dare disobey his orders. If Shopkeeper has anything you need, you can order us to do it for you. "His words were polite, but he really didn't dare to offend 'Yun Zhiqiu' directly.
'Yun Zhiqiu' said, "My ex-husband's family has sent someone to the outskirts of the city. They've sent some contracts for businesses and the like as my dowry. Can't I go and accept them?"
Kang smiled and said, "That makes things even easier. Where are they? I'll just send someone to retrieve them."
'Smack!' 'Yun Zhiqiu' suddenly struck. A resounding slap landed on Kang's face, leaving him a little stunned.
Kang's eyes widened. He subconsciously placed his hand on the hilt of his sword and his hands on his weapons as well. His expression was one of determination that he would rather die than be humiliated! However, when they thought about the identity of this woman, they swallowed their anger and swallowed it down.
Old Fan, the carpenter, and the others were speechless. They noticed that the madam was acting very differently today.
Qian'Er and Xue'Er were a little shocked. Sweat trickled down their backs. What is this vixen doing?
Kang's face was tense. He was sure to become a laughing stock among his colleagues after today's incident. He said in a low voice, "Shopkeeper, don't you think you're going a little too far?"
'Yun Zhiqiu' said coldly, "Do you think it's your turn to make decisions for me? My ex-husband's family isn't willing to enter the city because they don't want to be humiliated here. Property contracts and the like are worth a lot of money. Who knows if you guys are clean or not? They won't hand over such a huge sum of money to an outsider, so I have to go and retrieve it myself. If you're worried … "She turned to Qian'Er, Xue'Er, and the others and said," You guys wait here. I'll go alone! " Then, she turned to Qian'Er, Xue'Er, and the others and said, "It's at the city gates. I'll be back soon. You have so many people escorting me there. What's there to worry about? If you're still worried, ask Chu Zishan for his permission now. If he doesn't agree, I won't take this dowry! "
Kang's lips tightened. He silently took out his Star Bell and contacted Chu Zishan.
Chu Zishan, who was en route, immediately inquired about the situation. He learned that the dowry was at the city gates, and that so many people were escorting Yun Zhiqiu alone. There were even hostages in the Glorious Cloud Pavilion. Who would dare cause trouble at the entrance of Celestial Avenue? A huge dowry? That's great news! It'd be a waste if I don't take it! He immediately agreed, but reminded himself to be careful not to let anyone kidnap Yun Zhiqiu away!
After putting away his Star Bell, Kang turned around and gave way. With a cold expression, he extended his hand and said, "Please!"
'Yun Zhiqiu' flipped her hand and took out a gauze hat. She put it on to cover her face and walked out.
"Lady Boss!" The carpenter and the others were getting anxious. They took a few steps forward to follow her, but Xue'Er stopped them.
"Leave us!" Qian'Er advised. Then, she turned around and said, "Just wait for Madam to return."
The carpenter and the others turned around and saw that Qian'Er and Xue'Er looked calm and unworried. However, they knew that the two ladies must have their reasons for behaving this way, so they suppressed their doubts.
Exiting the southern city gate, Yun Zhiqiu led a few hundred armored soldiers out. He stood outside the city and looked around. He saw a man in a black cloak standing quietly under a large tree about a thousand feet to his left. The man stood there alone.
