"As you command, young master, I’ll attend to this matter imdiately."
After Ye Er left, he imdiately went to speak with the people from Fushui County, and then, without delay, led a team to various towns throughout the night.
"What’s happened again?" Seeing him return from the front yard with a slightly troubled expression, I couldn’t help but ask.
Ye Zi’an paused for a mont, then forced a smile, "It’s nothing, let’s eat first!"
"Daddy, eat this, you’ll feel better if you eat this," Yangyang, observant of moods, noticed the lack of smile on Ye Zi’an’s face and scooped so egg custard for him with a spoon.
"Thank you, son!"
Lele, sensitively aware that sothing might have happened outside, did not quite understand the matter due to his young age and obediently continued eating, occasionally picking food for his parents.
After finishing the al, he dutifully returned to his little study room to practice calligraphy. His father had said that recognizing more characters ant reading more books, and reading more would help him grow up faster. If he grew up faster, he could help his father with work.
"Ming Yu, what are you looking for?" Upon entering his little study, he found Ming Yu rummaging through his bookcase as if searching for sothing.
"Oh, it’s the young master. Have you finished your al?" Ming Yu smiled, waving a piece of cloth in her hand, "I saw that your things were a bit ssy, so I decided to tidy up for you."
"Oh," hearing this, Lele simply nodded, though he wondered whether his things were really that disorderly.
After a while, seeing that she was still in the room, Lele asked, "Why don’t you go out?"
Ming Yu was taken aback for a mont, then quickly said with a smile, "I’ll go out right away."
"Have Sister-in-law Li co over," Lele called out after she left.
Before he could finish speaking, Sister-in-law Li’s voice ca from outside, "Why is Ming Yu here? Aren’t you supposed to be with the mistress? You need to attend to her during als."
"Yes, mama, I’m aware. I am heading there now."
Sister-in-law Li, finding Ming Yu’s appearance sowhat strange yet not inquiring further, brought over so broth. Her usual task, along with Big Sister-in-law Li, was to look after Lele and Yangyang, while Sister-in-law Li and Ming Liu were in charge of other matters within the yard.
"What’s going wrong? You look pale," Yang Chuxia queried Ye Zi’an after they had eaten and returned to their room.
Before the al, Ye Er ca to report that another girl had gone missing in Fushui County," Ye Zi’an explained as he placed his clothes on the rack, "I fear this is only the beginning, just as it was with Quanya County years ago."
Yang Chuxia rembered the incident well, as it had wide-ranging implications. Yang Jinling and Yang Dongzhi were directly affected as victims, and Ms.Hua Junior’s family was thoroughly driven out of Yangshu Village because of it.
"Has anything been discovered at the Fancy Red Pavilion?" Yang Chuxia then inquired.
"Nothing. The people inside haven’t noticed anything amiss. It’s as though they truly are in the business of welcoming guests. Nothing else untoward."
"Do you know what Fancy Red Pavilion feels like to ?" Yang Chuxia asked, following the response.
"What does it feel like?"
Yang Chuxia extended her hand and groped in the air, "It’s like an evil spirit. You know it’s malevolent, yet you can’t stop it from harming the world."
"The Fancy Red Pavilion cannot be problem-free." Yang Chuxia stated confidently, "But apart from that one incident involving the selling of service contracts, it hasn’t been associated with any misconduct. It’s odd. One of these days, I must personally investigate the Fancy Red Pavilion."
