"Yesterday, I said that you'll be grounded, but I didn't say how many days you'll be grounded. I'm arranging for people to capture the remaining members of Guan Dahu's gang. So far, we've found the whereabouts of four of them. They're all fugitives now, and they must hate me to the core. If you go out, you might become their target. "
Pang Xiao got up and stretched out his arm to rub Qin Yining's forehead. "So be good and stay in the room. I'll arrange for people to set up a careful defense."
Qin Yining was unhappy. "I still have a lot of things to do outside. Master Zhong and Shopkeeper Yin's matter …"
"If they look for you later, I'll get someone to bring them in, okay?"
"Isn't that strange? They usually know that I can go out. "
"It's okay. I'll just tell them that you're grounded."
Qin Yining rolled her eyes at Pang Xiao. If she did as Pang Xiao said, she would lose all her face if outsiders found out that she was grounded.
Seeing that she was unhappy, Pang Xiao couldn't bear to see her like this. He softened his voice and hugged her. "Okay, okay. I promise you that I'll catch those people and make sure that there's no danger outside. You can go out whenever you want, okay? "
Qin Yining frowned and didn't say a word.
Pang Xiao kissed her. "My sweetheart, my baby, don't be angry with me, okay?"
Qin Yining was amused by his sweet tone and chuckled. "Okay, I know you're doing this for me."
"Really? Then I'm not angry?"
"I'm not angry."
"Really?"
"Really."
Pang Xiao deliberately let out a long sigh of relief. "Aiyo, my Sister Yi scared me."
Qin Yining glared at him. "How did I scare you?"
"You don't know. If I make you angry, I'll be more nervous than if I'm on the battlefield. Look at all the sweat I'm sweating. "
Qin Yining turned around and stroked his neck and Adam's apple with his slender fingers. It was indeed moist when he touched it.
"Isn't that so? You're actually sweating so much." Qin Yining sighed and said, "We're all family, so why are you so nervous and torturing yourself?"
Pang Xiao's Adam's apple bobbed. He was worried that Qin Yining would hear him swallowing. That would be too embarrassing.
"Okay, okay." Pang Xiao deliberately changed the topic. "What do you want to do these days? Do you want to invite a few opera singers to the house? "
"I don't want it. To outsiders, we are still in mourning. Why don't I make another pair of shoes for you in the next few days? "
This person had been unwillingly grounded by him. Not for his own pleasure, but to make shoes for him. Pang Xiao's heart swelled with heat. He hugged Qin Yining and kissed him for a long time before he was willing to let go.
Pang Xiao still had to go out with people to search for the whereabouts of Guan Dahu's accomplices. After accompanying Qin Yining for a while, he left.
Not long after he left, Ji Yun also left with the fu's driver. They went to the dessert shops, rouge shops, and medicine shops in the city.
The news that Wang Fei had been grounded had spread throughout the fu. Everyone was discussing this matter in private. Even people as deeply in love as Wang Ye and Wang Fei would have times when they quarreled.
Now, seeing Wang Fei's servant girl buying things as if they didn't cost money, and there was clearly a lot of rouge, powder, and medicine at home, the driver was even more certain that the two masters were not on good terms. Otherwise, Wang Fei wouldn't need to spend so much money to vent her anger.
The driver wanted to get close to Ji Yun, but Ji Yun was Wang Fei's first-ranked servant girl. Ordinary people couldn't talk to her. Because he didn't want to cause trouble and make Wang Fei and Wang Ye sick of him, the driver could only obediently carry the things for her.
Ji Yun saw that the driver following her was such an honest person and relaxed slightly. After making a big circle, she went to Number Four and flashed the jade tablet. She explained her intentions to head shopkeeper Yin in a low voice.
Head shopkeeper Yin was a smart person. He knew last night that something bad had happened. The servants in the large fu had been knocked unconscious for no reason. When they woke up, the masters in the fu had disappeared. The servants were waiting on them, but they lost sight of their masters. Everyone was anxious and someone hurriedly came to report.
Later, before they could figure out what was going on, the entire Huichuan County was under martial law by Wang Fu's guards. They were searching everywhere for a few fugitives. The way they searched was as if they couldn't wait to turn the entire Huichuan County upside down.
Head shopkeeper Yin was also worried about whether he should ask Qin Yining when Ji Yun came.
"So, Wang Fei's intention is that if someone comes to seek 'Boss Qiu' for protection, you should do your best to protect them. It's best to hide them in a place where Wang Ye can't find them."
Head shopkeeper Yin wanted to refuse. It was obvious that Wang Ye and Wang Fei had an argument. The two of them had different opinions. As an outsider, if he got involved, once it happened in the future, he was afraid that he wouldn't have a good ending.
But he didn't have the guts to refuse directly.
Ji Yun could see head shopkeeper Yin's hesitation. She took out Qiu Feishan's jade tablet and showed it to him.
"Before Wang Fei came, Boss Qiu had already instructed that when you arrived in Huichuan, the local Sitong Shop would strictly listen to Wang Fei's command and dispatch. This servant understands head shopkeeper Yin's difficulties, but Wang Fei's instructions are urgent. Even if Wang Ye finds out, Wang Fei will protect you, so you really don't have to worry. "
"Yes." Head shopkeeper Yin nodded.
Although Ji Yun's words were polite, head shopkeeper Yin still thought of one thing. If he didn't listen to Qin Yining's instructions now, Wang Fei might have already dealt with him before Wang Ye came to find him.
After making up his mind, head shopkeeper Yin immediately agreed to Ji Yun's request.
Ji Yun also pretended to buy a lot of fashionable silks and satins with head shopkeeper Yin. She also said that Wang Fei wanted to buy autumn clothes for the servants in the residence and needed a lot of cotton cloth.
Sitong Shop did all kinds of business. The materials in the south were also the latest styles, so the orders for the Wang Fu's colorful clothes were naturally not small. Head shopkeeper Yin finished his business. He cheerfully sent Ji Yun out.
"Miss Ji Yun, don't worry. Although it has been raining heavily for days, our things are still the best. They are also stored properly. There are absolutely no defective goods."
Ji Yun smiled and nodded. She opened the oil-paper umbrella, "Wang Fei specially instructed me to buy things from you. It can't be wrong. Then I'll have to trouble head shopkeeper Yin. "
The last sentence had a double meaning. Head shopkeeper Yin naturally understood.
"Oh, don't worry. Take care!"
Yi Yun held up an umbrella and stepped on a wooden plank to block the rain as he walked down the stairs. Shui Zhiyi raised his head and saw Pang Xiao leading more than ten guards from the Prince's Mansion. They were wearing raincoats and walking over from the corner.
Seeing Ji Yun, Pang Xiao was also very surprised.
"Why are you here?"
