It's almost time to wear it. The soft beauty relies on the child-bearing system to favor her

Chapter 276 The Regent and His Amnesiac Childhood Sweetheart 31

"Tell me quickly, what's the strange thing?"

This town is too peaceful, with few new things happening. Anything that Chun Xing considers strange must be interesting.

Chun Xing has grown into a graceful lady. Like Su Wanti, she has her long black hair tied into a simple bun at the back of her head, secured with only a wooden hairpin, without any hairpins or rings.

Her face was also plain, without any makeup, and she was wearing a green dress.

If an outsider saw them, they would think they were sisters rather than master and servant.

Chun Xing smiled and said, "I just went to buy groceries and found that our neighbor in the front yard has moved."

Su Wanti frowned slightly, "Auntie Wang's family moved? Where did they move to? Why didn't she tell me?"

"But this isn't weird."

Chun Xing added, "It would be fine if only Aunt Wang moved. After I bought some vegetables and came home, I put them in the kitchen, and then I saw from the back window that Aunt Li in the backyard had also moved!"

Su Wanti couldn't help but straighten up, and the rocking chair stopped rocking.

"This is strange. How come our neighbors in the front and back yards all moved out suddenly, and on the same day? Chun Xing, have you asked around?"

Chun Xing said, "I asked, and Aunt Wang said that her son bought a big house where he was working, and wanted to take her there to live. Someone was sent to pick her up, so she quickly sold the house and prepared to leave."

"This is too sudden." Su Wanti murmured.

"And Aunt Li, Aunt Li said she was done with business and wanted to go back to the countryside to retire. Just then a big boss from out of town offered a suitable price, so she sold the house. She said the big boss needed it urgently, so she moved out right away."

Hearing this, Su Wanti frowned, feeling something was wrong.

This is a most unremarkable town. Most of the residents make a living by fishing and pearl farming. There is no highly profitable industry in the town. How could it attract big bosses to come here?

"Chun Xing, stay at home. I will deliver this month's embroidery to Feixia Pavilion."

Su Wanti wants to go outside to find out some information.

"By the way, where are mother and Miaomiao?" Su Wanti asked.

Chun Xing said, "Su Yun is playing with Madam and Xiao Miao Miao in the front yard."

Su Wanti glanced at the sky. The sun had already set in the western horizon, like a big orange-yellow fireball, jumping in the sky, and bright red clouds covered half of the sky.

"It's getting dark. Tell them to stop playing and go back to the house to rest for a while, then prepare dinner. After I leave, close the front and back doors tightly. I'll be back soon. If anyone knocks on the door, don't answer it and don't open it."

Su Wanti gave detailed instructions.

Chun Xing smiled nonchalantly, "Miss, you are too nervous. Every time there is a little movement around you, you get so nervous that you won't let me go out or make any sound. Do you want us to pack our bags tonight and move out tomorrow before dark?"

After leaving the capital, Su Wanti and her group moved to several places. If she felt something was wrong, she would tell Chun Xing and the others to stay at home, pack up their gold, silver, and personal belongings, and move after she found a new place to live.

I have gone back and forth like this at least ten times.

Chun Xing smiled and said, "Miss, don't worry. We have moved more than ten times, from a small town in the southwest to this small town in the south. No one can find us."

Su Wanti recalled what happened before and laughed, "Maybe I'm overthinking it again this time. Forget it, you go and prepare dinner. I'll go to Feixia Pavilion and find out what business the big boss here is in and whether he's easy to get along with."

She had chosen this yard because the neighbors here were all legitimate business owners, kind-hearted and easy to get along with.

After spending a long time with neighbors, you will become familiar with each other and can take care of each other from time to time.

If a neighbor who was difficult to get along with suddenly appeared, she would still have to think about finding a new place to live.

Su Wanti put several embroidered handkerchiefs into a basket and went out.

The people in this small town are simple and honest, so Su Wanti didn't wear a veil either.

The sun is strong and the sea breeze is hard at the seaside. After living here for nearly two years, Su Wanti's skin is no longer as white as before.

Now, her skin is darker than when she was in the capital, but this makes her look healthier. She has a vibrant glow and is no longer like before, when she looked so weak that she could be blown down by a gust of wind.

Su Wanti had enough money in her hands, but when she had nothing to do, she would find some work to do.

Young ladies from official families not only have to learn music, chess, calligraphy and painting from a young age, but also have to learn needlework.

Officials and merchants' families could prepare various silk threads and satin materials for their daughters to practice embroidery skills.

Therefore, the embroidery works of women in officials and merchants' families are so exquisite and sophisticated that they cannot be compared with ordinary embroidery works.

Su Wanti has good craftsmanship. When she was a boudoir, her needlework was the best among the women in the mansion.

So, she took a silk handkerchief she had embroidered to Feixia Pavilion, the best embroidery shop in the town, and showed it to the owner, who favored her.

The owner of Feixia Pavilion ordered silk handkerchiefs from her. Every month, Su Wanti would send her a few handkerchiefs that she had embroidered. She wanted all of them, and the price was a little higher than the market price.

Therefore, Su Wanti would send a few exquisite silk handkerchiefs she embroidered to the owner of Feixia Pavilion every month, and take the opportunity to ask the owner about what was happening in the town and outside.

Feixia Pavilion is in the center of the town, and Su Wanti arrived there in less than a quarter of an hour.

After handing the silk handkerchief to the boss and receiving the reward, Su Wanti pretended to ask the boss of Feixia Pavilion about the latest news in the town.

Unfortunately, the owner of Feixia Pavilion, who is always well-informed, has no idea who the big boss who bought Li Ma's yard is.

Su Wanti was worried. After thinking it over, she felt that she should be cautious and leave this place temporarily.

If my judgment is wrong, it will just be a false alarm.

If I really guessed it, I would be in big trouble.

By then, the peaceful and tranquil life that you have worked so hard to obtain will come to an end.

Su Wanti hurried home, feeling anxious and walking in a hurried manner.

When crossing the bridge, Su Wanti accidentally bumped into a man. She lost hold of the box in her hand and fell under the bridge with a plop.

"Girl, it was my negligence. Let me help you pick up the box." The man had dark skin, deep eyebrows and eyes, and was very tall.

He was impatient at first, but the moment he saw Su Wanti, he was stunned for a moment, his eyes lit up, and his attitude softened.

The woman in front of me has black hair, eyes like stars, and a slim figure. She is wearing a blue shirt and looks particularly pretty and charming in this summer evening.

Like a fresh breeze off the sea.

Su Wanti became more and more uneasy because she accidentally dropped the box.

"No need, the box should have been thrown away." Su Wanti had something on her mind, so she waved her hand and left in a hurry.

On the bridge, the young man stared at the back of the woman in green, unable to come back to his senses for a long time.

The attendant behind him looked at the woman's back, then looked at his master, and said, "Master, she is just a girl from a small town. What's so special about her? Is she prettier than the princesses and princesses of Da Qi?"

The young man was stunned and said, "No, she has a different temperament from aristocratic women. She has the exquisite beauty of the women of Da Qi, and the unrestrained and free-spiritedness of our Nanyue women. She is very special."

"Hmm..." The attendant looked at the woman's gradually disappearing back and said, "It is quite exquisite. All right, sir, let's go quickly, we still have to hurry!"

The attendant took the young master away.

And this scene fell into Dugu Cang's eyes exactly.

At this moment, he was standing by the window on the second floor of a teahouse near the bridge.

Dugu Cang was wearing a black hat with a wide brim that covered half of his face.

Only the sharp and distinct jaw is revealed.

Wearing a black suit, his figure looked thinner and taller.

"Very good." He didn't move, and his voice was frighteningly cold.

"Su Wanti, you are so brave that even I was fooled by you."

He pinched the teacup in his hand with two fingers and crushed it into pieces.

Looking up at the sky, the sun has set and dark clouds are gathering in the west. Tonight will not be a clear night.

Dugu Cang closed the window and his figure disappeared behind it.

If there was someone outside the window, they would be able to see through the oil paper pasted on the window that there was a group of people in the room besides him.

Dugu Cang waved to those people, and they bowed and left.

Outside the window, night has fallen, and the thin, boundless darkness slowly swallows up the entrance of the town from top to bottom.
