Smash the little fairy doctor, relying on fortune-telling to popularize the entire dynasty

Chapter 29 Shopkeeper, something big happened!

Amused by Huan'er's joke, this smile also dissipated the gloom that had accumulated in Zhou Jingwan's heart for many days.

There was a rare moment of relief in my heart.

"To be honest, I don't completely believe in this master now."

Zhou Jingwan was gentle and cautious, and said slowly, "If Mrs. Hu hadn't strongly recommended this Fengcheng master, I wouldn't have come to find her behind my parents' backs."

After hearing Miss's words, Huan'er didn't say much anymore.

Mrs. Hu is the wife of the magistrate of a county, and she is known to all the old, weak, women and children in the county at ordinary times, so she will not deceive her daughter for no reason.

I believe that the master in the general's mansion must have something special.

"It's getting late, miss should go to bed earlier."

Huan'er turned around and said while making the bed, "We'll visit after breakfast tomorrow. This master can't sleep day and night."

Hearing Huan'er's unwilling words, Zhou Jingwan smiled gently and nodded.

"Go and rest too, we'll get up early tomorrow."

After serving Zhou Jingwan to lie down, Huan'er Fu Fushen was just about to leave when there was a knock on the door.

The visit at such a time made the master and servant tense up immediately, Huan'er hesitated for a moment, and asked softly.

"who?"

"Girl, I'm the mansion soldier of the Xiao family. The general invites the two of you to visit the mansion."

The man's voice sounded middle-aged, and he could be seen through the candlelight standing upright and orderly outside the door.

In addition, his words were sincere and polite, and he said that it was someone from the Xiao family who came to look for him, Zhou Jingwan and Huan'er immediately lost their vigilance.

Zhou Jingwan got up quickly, put on her coat and tidied her loose hair before she nodded to signal Huan'er to open the door.

There was only one man outside the door, with a saber hanging on his waist, and the clothes on his body were exactly the same as the soldiers they saw at the gate of Xiao's house.

The two looked at each other, confirming that the man was wearing the right clothes, and relaxed a little.

"Excuse me." The man politely clasped his fists in salute, and stepped aside respectfully to get out of the way, "The carriage is ready, please."

Usually the guards would follow behind the host and the guests, Zhou Jingwan, as the lady of the family, knew it.

She was just surprised that the general's mansion would treat herself as a guest who had never met before.

"Working strong man."

Huan'er thanked her, and helped her young lady to walk down the second floor slowly.

The candlelight behind them flickered across the figures of the three of them, shining in the dim night.

The lobby on the first floor is quiet and quiet. Since it is closing time, most of the guests cannot be received.

The servant was lowering his head to wipe the last few square tables, watching the two girls descend slowly, followed by a man who looked like a military guard, his movements gradually slowed down.

Fengcheng seems to be prosperous, but due to the complicated flow of trade and people, there are a lot of people of different religions and different schools mixed in the market.

"It's so late, where are the two guests going?"

The little servant couldn't hold back and asked, looking at the three of them.

"Our general invites two girls to go over the house and talk about it."

At this moment, the three of them had already reached the door, and the soldiers dismissed the servant's question without looking back, and urged Zhou Jingwan and the others, "You two, please get in the carriage."

The servant threw down the rag in his hand worriedly, and walked lightly to the door of the shop.

It happened that Zhou Jingwan's master and servant entered a carriage, and then the carriage slowly moved forward and disappeared into the night.

This carriage boy recognized it, it was the carriage that the Xiao family often used on weekdays.

Although the Xiao family had several different vehicles, General Xiao was never a showy person, and most of them used this vehicle for travel.

Seeing the familiar frame, the boy laughed because he was thinking too much, turned around and went back to continue wiping the square table.

When he wiped the third square table, the movements of his hands couldn't help but tremble, his eyes suddenly filled with horror, he dropped the rag and hurried to the backyard.

"The shopkeeper! The shopkeeper, open the door!"

The boy slapped the back room vigorously and shouted urgently, "Something happened! Shopkeeper, something serious happened!"

"In the middle of the night, what are you doing bluffing here if you don't clean up the front hall?!"

The shopkeeper just lay down, and the troubled one got up quickly, cursed and put on his clothes, and opened the door.

"Do you still remember that in our store, there were two girls staying in the store after noon?"

Hearing that the guest had an accident, the shopkeeper couldn't help being surprised.

He rushed to the guest room on the second floor and asked, "What happened? Don't be dead!"

"Don't, don't, I'm not in the store, people are gone!"

"what?"

The shopkeeper looked confused, and stood in the front hall and said to the boy, "Leaving? Didn't pay the bill?"

"Hey! No!"

The boy who was disturbed by the shopkeeper couldn't speak clearly, he directly pressed the opponent's hand and said very fast.

"A man wearing the Xiao family's military uniform just picked them up. I was afraid of accidents. I took a special look at them when they left. The carriage is indeed the one that the Xiao family often uses."

Hearing the Xiao family, the shopkeeper's worried heart immediately fell back to his belly.

He couldn't help but yawned and waved his hands, and began to walk slowly towards the inner room in the back hall.

"This idea is worth your surprise. The Xiao family is the safest place in Fengcheng."

Unexpectedly, before he had a moment of leisure, what the servant said next almost made him fall to the ground in shock.

"Shopkeeper, you never thought that maybe the person who came to pick them up wasn't from the Xiao family?!"

The shopkeeper was dazed for a few seconds, looking at the servant.

The other party continued: "Old General Xiao has a higher official position than our county magistrate. It is more appropriate to summon guests during the day. Which innocent family will pick them up in the middle of the night? And they are two girls who have not left the cabinet!"

"Also, I just remembered that on the right side of the carriage, there were a few obvious knife marks from the dagger, but the one that picked up the two girls has no knife marks at all!"

"Someone must have come out of Xiao's mansion with chariots and horses to deceive the two girls!"

"If something really happens after the person is picked up, our Qingfeng Building will also be involved in this lawsuit. By then, our reputation will be rotten, and who will come to our Qingfeng Building to stay."

"If those two didn't just have an accident but..."

"Maybe, we will be sentenced to be accomplices and be implicated and imprisoned!"

The boy's analysis coupled with his concern for Qingfenglou forced the shopkeeper to pay attention.

He anxiously paced back and forth in the front hall, and asked in a low voice, "You just said that the carriage is exactly the same as the Xiao family's, but it doesn't have those few scratches?"

"How can you be sure that the Xiao family didn't repair it by themselves, so it's gone."

"Impossible." The servant said firmly, "I am quite familiar with the groom of the Xiao family, and once chatted about the meaning of this scratch."

"The scratches were made by Mr. Xiao every time he measured the little Gongsun's height. In order to commemorate the little Gongsun growing up, he specially ordered people not to repair it, so it must not be a repaired carriage."
