Chapter 303
Xiu Chun agreed and left. After a while, she rushed back and reported, "Old Mistress, Old Mistress! Mama Li said that Young Master brought Chang Huan and the rest out of the residence at dawn. He said that he went to White River Town! "
"What!" Wang and Gu Fangzi were both shocked. Gu Fangzi's face turned even paler. Her hands that were hanging by her side clenched tightly into her palms. Her heart was filled with jealousy.
"What is he trying to do! What is he trying to do! " Wang cried sadly again, "He still hates me, his mother. He left in a hurry and didn't even say goodbye to me! He's torturing himself like this, is he trying to take my life too! "
Nanny Jiang, Gu Fangzi, and the rest quickly went forward to persuade her.
"Aunt, Aunt, don't be like this!" Gu Fangzi quickly said, "There are servants following him, don't worry! Big Cousin will feel better after venting his anger. He's not someone who doesn't know the severity of the situation. Don't you know him! Aunt, you have to take care of yourself! "
"That's right, Old Mistress! Young Master has always been steady in his actions. There are also servants taking care of White River Town, so don't worry! "Nanny Jiang added.
"Is this something that a calm and steady person would do?! He's changed, he's no longer the Fengju of the past! For a woman, he actually became like this! "Wang was heartbroken and her tears kept flowing.
Gu Fangzi was startled and did not try to persuade her. She also cried silently. Her tears were even more joyful than Wang's. Wang's words completely hurt her heart.
Her aunt was right, he's changed, he's no longer the Fengju of the past. For a woman, he became like this. But this woman was not her, Gu Fangzi!
Nanny Jiang saw that Gu Fangzi was also crying and could not help but become more anxious. She hurriedly said, "Miss Gu, don't cry! Quickly persuade Old Mistress! First Madam, don't be sad. First Young Master will be fine! "
Gu Fangzi glanced at Nanny Jiang out of the corner of her eyes. She continued to wipe her tears and didn't say anything. However, she sneered in her heart. She thought, "Now you want me to persuade First Madam?" Don't treat me as a blind fool who doesn't know anything! How many good words have you put in for that bitch Sang Wan? How many good things have you ruined for me? Now that you know you can't count on that bitch, you're counting on me!
"Auntie! Auntie! " Just as she was feeling sad, she saw Shi Fengming rushing in from outside. Seeing this, he was stunned and quickly lowered his voice. "Eldest Aunt …"
"It's Feng Ming!" Wang hurriedly wiped her tears and forced a smile. "Why are you here so early?"
Shi Fengming secretly regretted his rashness and quickly smiled apologetically. "Oh, I see! I heard that Big Brother rushed to White River Town early in the morning. I, I came to inform you. In a while, I will rush over to meet up with Big Brother. Auntie, don't worry, I will take good care of Big Brother! "
"Good, good!" Wang was overjoyed when she heard this. Her spirits were lifted and she quickly said, "Feng Ming, you're so considerate! Good child, you're becoming more and more mature! Ai, with you going, Auntie will be much more at ease! "
Shi Fengming, who had never been praised like this before, was overwhelmed by the favor. For a moment, he didn't know how to respond. He vaguely laughed for a while before saying with a smile, "Don't worry! I will definitely take good care of Big Brother and won't let him do anything stupid! "
Shi Fengming didn't have a plan when he spoke. He just said what he thought in his heart. However, when these words reached Wang's ears, her face turned pale. Her heart suddenly jumped a few times, and she cried out involuntarily, "Stupid thing! Please don't! Please don't! Fengming, you have to help me bring him back safely! Tell him that he still has a mother waiting for him at home! "
"Auntie, Young Master isn't an impulsive person. Please don't worry!" Nanny Jiang sighed inwardly and hurriedly tried to persuade her.
Shi Fengming stared blankly and regretted his slip of the tongue. He hurriedly agreed and swore solemnly. After a long time, Wang finally calmed down and looked at Shi Fengming with teary eyes.
Shi Fengming didn't dare to delay. He left Wang's place and returned to Xiu Garden. Zhou Jingyi had already prepared his luggage for him. He immediately took his luggage and hurriedly left.
Shi Fengju rushed without stopping. When night fell, he arrived at White River Town. The Jin housekeeper was shocked to see him and hurriedly ordered people to tidy up the house and arrange accommodation.
"How is the situation? Is there any news of Young Mistress? " Shi Fengju's expression was calm, but everyone could feel the turbulent emotions he was suppressing in his heart. This was the calm before the storm.
The Jin housekeeper's expression froze. He didn't dare to lie to him, so he shook his head and truthfully said, "The Old Slave has sent people to search both sides of the river, as well as all the villages, docks, and towns, but …"
"There's still no news?" Shi Fengju said, "This means that Wan Niang should be fine, right?"
The Jin housekeeper opened his mouth, but didn't dare to refute him. He could only nod and say, "Yes …"
Shi Fengju seemed to let out a sigh of relief and said, "That's good! That's good! No news is good news! "
At least, he still had hope, right? The heavens still left him hope. Wan Niang still left him hope! What he was most afraid of was coming here to see the cold corpse under the white cloth. If that happened, he would have nothing left!
"Continue to search, search carefully! Don't leave out even the slightest bit! If I find out that anyone dares to feign compliance, then don't blame me, Shi Fengju, for being ruthless! Whoever saves Young Mistress will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of silver! Quickly pass down the order! "Shi Fengju said again.
The Jin housekeeper trembled. He raised his eyes to look at him, but didn't dare to object. He could only bow and answer, "Yes, Old Slave will pass down the order!"
The Jin housekeeper sighed in his heart. Actually, after searching for so many days, if there was any news, there would have been news long ago! However, everyone knew that the Young Master and Young Mistress had a good relationship. Without the Young Master's orders, no one dared to leave. They could only continue with this useless search. The Jin housekeeper was originally thinking that when the Young Master received the news and rushed over, he would quickly report to him. From the looks of it, the Young Mistress was most likely buried under the water, and most likely not even her bones were left! Among the few servants who followed, the two male servants were lucky enough to be saved. Liu Ya and the two daughters-in-law also survived. The old woman had passed away, but her corpse had been found. Only the Young Mistress …
But no matter what, this was the truth. Although no one said it out loud, they had already determined it in their hearts. The Jin housekeeper planned to ask the Young Master to give the order so that they could quickly do what needed to be done. It wouldn't be good to delay for too long.
However, at this moment, when the Jin housekeeper saw Shi Fengju like this, the decision he had long made in his heart wavered. He didn't dare to say another word. He would obediently do whatever the Young Master said!
Early the next morning, Zhuang Weixian brought Liu Ya from the village where they were searching to see Shi Fengju. When Liu Ya saw him, she called out "Young Master" and knelt on the ground, crying sorrowfully. Zhuang Weixian wanted to console her, but it was inconvenient for him to do so. He could only pat Shi Fengju's shoulder and sigh softly to console him.
When Shi Fengju saw Liu Ya, his stomach ached even more. He sighed and said, "You and your master have a deep relationship. It's very good that you're here safe and sound. I'm sure your master will be happy to know. Alright, don't cry. Get up! "
When Liu Ya heard this, she couldn't stop crying. She sobbed and said, "Young Master, it's all this servant's fault for being useless and not being able to protect Young Mistress! Young Master, if you scold this servant or hit this servant, this servant's heart would also feel better! "
Shi Fengju said indifferently, "Wan Niang has always treated you like a sister. She wouldn't like it if I scolded or hit you. Moreover, this matter isn't your fault! Alright, don't cry. Tell me about the situation at that time. How did you search these past few days? What did you find? "
When Liu Ya heard this, she became even more upset. After crying for a while, she crawled up from the ground and told Shi Fengju about the situation at that time. When she talked about the search and rescue situation, she felt so guilty and anxious that she wanted to cry again. They searched back and forth, but there wasn't even a trace of Young Mistress!
Shi Fengju believed in Liu Ya. This was because he knew that while other people might have the intention to be perfunctory, Liu Ya definitely wouldn't! Liu Ya would only be as anxious as he was about Sang Wan's safety! If even she said so, it could be seen that the current situation was really terrible!
He still shook his head and insisted, "Wan Niang will be fine. Your master will definitely be fine! Perhaps she was injured and was rescued by someone. Send people to all the medical centers and medicine shops to ask if anyone has come to buy medicine, calming soup, cold medicine, etc.! "
"I've already sent people to ask!" Zhuang Weixian hurriedly said. When he saw Shi Fengju staring at him with dissatisfaction, Zhuang Weixian quickly changed his words, "Of course, it's also possible that there were some omissions and carelessness! I'll send people to go again, again! "
Liu Ya said to Shi Fengju with tears in her eyes, "Young Master, you should rest for a while. Don't tire yourself out. Young Mistress will be distressed if she sees you like this!"
Shi Fengju only felt suffocated from the pain in his heart. He wished that he could use his sword to stab a few holes in his chest to vent his feelings. He sighed and ignored Liu Ya. After asking for the direction of the river, he rode his horse over.
Liu Ya wanted to follow him but was stopped by Zhuang Weixian. She glared at him and heard Zhuang Weixian say, "Just send two servants to follow us from afar. What are you doing! Ai, Fengju is feeling terrible. Let him calm down! "
Liu Ya said with a nasal voice, "Only you can say something so relaxed when you're so indifferent. Who knows how sad Young Master must be feeling right now. How can he calm down!"
Zhuang Weixian couldn't help but feel wronged. How am I relaxed? You heartless lass, I've been helping your people search every day, and you still say that about me! Forget it, if it weren't for the current situation, I'd definitely argue with you about it!
"What else can I do? Now that things have come to this, we can only do our best and leave the rest to fate! Ai, don't blame me for saying such harsh words. I'm just speaking the truth. From the looks of it, I'm afraid your Young Mistress is — — "
"Afraid of what?" Liu Ya glared at him with fire in her eyes.
Zhuang Weixian felt a little scared when he saw that she was about to explode, but he didn't hesitate to say what he had to say. He braced himself and said, "I'm afraid she's met with misfortune!"
