Rendong didn't mention it and went to do her job while Xu was resting.

After hanging up the clothes and on the way back to Jianjia Pavilion, he saw that the mansion was still being searched, so he went forward to inquire.

"We have searched everywhere in the mansion, but we couldn't find the child. Now that the Marquis has returned, we are sending people to look for him again."

After hearing this, Rendong became worried and turned back to report to Xu.

Xu didn't care about the child, but when she heard that Bo Jinnian had returned and was also looking for him, she felt a little suspicious, but she still said firmly, "Go ahead and look for him. Do I, a pregnant woman, have to get up and help? Close the door, and tell anyone who comes to look for me that I'm resting!"

Honeysuckle agreed and went over to close the door.

Soon Bo Jinnian came to Jianjia Pavilion in person.

"Madam is resting now. My Lord, please come back tomorrow."

Rendong couldn't speak and was a little worried about the two children, so she became even more reserved, making it seem like Xu was deliberately avoiding people.

Bo Jinnian knew that Ren Dong was Xu's personal maid, so he did not ask Xu, but turned to Ren Dong and asked, "What happened today?"

Rendong knew that Bo Jinnian was asking about the two children, but she also knew that she couldn't say that Xu had beaten the children, so she only said that the other child had bumped into Xu.

After hearing this, Bo Jinnian was able to guess the true story.

"okay, I get it."

Bo Jinnian turned around and walked out, looking around as he walked, and happened to see that the back door was open.

When I walked over, I saw that it was the guy who delivered the poultry. All the kitchen ingredients were piled in the backyard and then distributed by other servants.

The back door leads to the backyard. In order to be lazy, the guys don't close the door after entering. They only close the door when they put down their things, count the items and come out.

"Go look for it on the street!"

At Bo Jinnian's command, all the servants went out.

The old lady stood at the gate of the mansion, leaning on a dragon-headed cane and looking outside, her face full of worry.

At this time, Xu fell asleep while touching her abdomen.

Bo Jinxiu saw his servants walking around on the street and felt puzzled. He walked to the gate and saw the old lady standing at the door, muttering to himself.

"What are you doing standing here, old lady?"

The old lady said anxiously: "It's your brother's two children who ran away, and they are being looked for now!"

Bo Jinxiu didn't have a good impression of the two children, so he just perfunctorily listened to a few words, supported the old lady and said, "It's no use for you to be anxious, why don't you go in and sit and wait."

The old lady couldn't sit still, so she waved her hand and continued to look out the door.

Bo Jinxiu then slipped back to Jianjia Pavilion by himself.

"Where's the hot water? Isn't the first step for me to wash my hands with hot water when I come back?"

Honeysuckle had no choice but to say, "We have been looking for the two children today, and there is no one to boil water. Now we can't find hot water!"

Bo Jinxiu immediately got angry: "Why? Those two kids are named Ji. Are we going to stop living in the Marquisate for them?"

Rendong couldn't help but tell Bo Jinxiu what happened today.

"You mean the lady beat the two children and ran away?"

Honeysuckle nodded, somewhat worried that if the matter got out of hand, she would be implicated.

Bo Jinxiu listened and thought for a moment, "You really know how to cause trouble for me! Helping me put on my shoes is exhausting, and I still have to go out to find someone. I don't know when I can rest!"

Bo Jinxiu went out complaining and joined the search team, but he just turned into an alley and hid there to drink tea.

When Shen Yiran came back in the evening, he heard that the two children had been gone for a day. Although he was exhausted, he immediately found someone to find out what happened.

It was the maid who was taking care of the flowers and trees in the garden at the time who saw what happened and immediately told Shen Yiran.

Bai Zhi took off Shen Yiran's embroidered shoes and said, "Madam, why do you have so many blisters on your feet?"

Shen Yiran looked down and realized that he had walked up and down the mountain several times today. He had a row of big blisters on his feet and his heels were bleeding.

"Where is the Marquis?"

The maid immediately reported back, "The Marquis guessed that the young master and the young lady must have run out through the back door, and he is looking for them on the street."

out?

Shen Yiran immediately thought that the two children might have lost themselves.

She was the first person to take the two children out shopping. Although the route they took was the same as the one they took to inspect shops every time, it was possible that the two children had memorized the route and might be able to find the place by searching along the shops!

So Shen Yiran immediately got up and went out, just in time to meet Bo Jinnian who came back and asked about the situation.

"are you back?"

"did you find it?"

Bo Jinnian asked while standing at the door, and Shen Yiran asked while sitting barefoot. They both asked the question almost at the same time.

They could hear each other's questions and they all had the answers without having to answer.

Bo Jinnian noticed the blisters on Shen Yiran's feet and the blood on the heels of his embroidered shoes. Knowing that Shen Yiran was also busy today, he said, "Wait for me at the mansion. I'll go out and continue looking."

Without waiting for Shen Yiran's answer, Bo Jinnian turned around and ran out anxiously.

"Help me put on my shoes and help me up."

Bai Zhi heard this and tried to stop us, "Miss! The Marquis has asked us to stay in the mansion and wait for news. What if the two children show up by themselves?"

Shen Yiran put on his shoes by himself. When he stood up, he couldn't help but gritted his teeth, but he didn't have time to cry out in pain and walked out quickly.

Bai Zhi could only follow.

It was already dark, and in order to make the search easier, Shen Yiran carried a lantern and Bai Zhi followed the route to the shop.

All the shops were searched except the coal shop outside the city.

Bai Zhi supported Shen Yiran, who was unable to walk, and said, "Miss, if the child could really be found near the store, then the shop assistants would have sent the child back long ago, right?"

Shen Yiran leaned against a tree on the street and thought about it.

Besides the shops, where else have you been with your two children?

Plus the places you might go by walking forward and backward from the back door.

correct!

Shen Yiran suddenly raised his head, and without saying goodbye to Bai Zhi, he ran away.

"Miss!"

Bai Zhi was very worried and immediately ran after him.

There was a place where Shen Yiran had been with his two children. It was the place where Shen Yunyan fell into the water that day. Shen Yiran met Shen Yunyan, who looked like a crazy woman, on the street that day and wanted to revisit the place.

By the pool, Shen Yiran once told the two children that this was her favorite place at the moment.

Shen Yiran's heart was full of expectations, as if he had a very certain premonition that the two children would definitely be here!

Bai Zhi was chasing after him, panting and almost unable to run anymore.

She was born in a farming family. Today, she followed Shen Yiran up and down the mountain. Even she felt tired, but she didn't know how Shen Yiran could run so fast with blisters on his feet!

"Ji Sicheng! Ji Siyue! I am your mother! Are you here?"

Shen Yiran stopped and realized that he seemed to have forgotten to breathe. He was gasping for breath and couldn't even stand up straight. But he stretched out his arms and raised the lantern to shine inside the door of Qinfang Garden.

But there was no response.
