When they returned to the main courtyard, Old Madam Liu and Aunt Zhang had already placed the dishes. Li Yu said to Xiaoyu, “Ruyi and the others are eating at the construction site. You and Seven Pounds can eat here.”

“Brother Seven Pounds, let’s eat together. ” Yangyang pulled Seven Jin onto a chair.

“Okay,” Xiaoyu agreed readily. She looked at Seven Pounds sitting on the chair and smiled. “Aiyo, look, the brat is already at the table.”

Seven Pounds frowned and looked at Xiaoyu unhappily. “My name isn’t Brat. It’s Seven Pounds.”

“Alright! Your name is Seven Pounds, not Brat.” They looked at Seven Pounds and laughed.

Wang Zhong was woken up by a piercing pain. When he opened his eyes, he realized that he was locked in a dark place. He could not see or hear anything. The pain in his wrist gnawed at him, and Wang Zhong slowly drifted into sleep.

After Li Yu and the others ate, Xiaoyu brought Seven Pounds back to the courtyard. Li Yu washed Yangyang up and coaxed him to sleep. She then asked Gu Yu to look after the child and went to the cellar alone with the oil lamp. She kicked Wang Zhong, who was playing dead, and said, “Tell me! Who sent you to capture me?”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Wang Zhong turned to look at Li Yu and lowered his eyes. “No one sent me. I saw a single woman driving a mule cart and had evil intentions. I wanted to rob you.”

“No one sent you?” Li Yu squatted in front of Wang Zhong and took out his waist token and lease. “I know even if you don’t say it. Your name is Wang Zhong. You’re a guard of the Wang family. It was that Miss from the Wang family who sent you, right?”

Wang Zhong looked at the waist token and lease in Li Yu’s hand and regretted it. He turned his head to the side and thought to himself that he had underestimated this Madam. He could only blame himself for not investigating thoroughly before attacking.

Li Yu looked at him and knew that she had guessed correctly. Miss Wang and Madam Lin must have thought they had everything under control! Did they really think that she was made of mud?

Li Yu stood up and looked down at Wang Zhong. “Miss Wang, alright! I’ll let you have a taste of being kidnapped.”

Wang Zhong panicked as he wondered if Li Yu was really intending to abduct his Miss. He was was worried that the latter was really weak and there would be no way out for her once she was kidnapped.

Wang Zhong said anxiously, “It’s not Miss Wang’s fault. I did it myself.”

Seeing his anxious defense, Li Yu looked at him and smiled sarcastically. “After all this time, it turns out that the little guard secretly fell in love with his Miss?”

Wang Zhong blushed and shouted, “Nonsense, you’re not allowed to speak badly of Miss.” After Wang Zhong shouted, he knew that he had been tricked and closed his mouth in regret.

“Tsk tsk, you’re still protecting her! I wonder if your Miss will protect you.” After Li Yu finished speaking, she turned around and left. Wang Zhong shouted, “Madam, please let my Miss off. My Miss isn’t bad. She’s just a little delicate.”

This idiot, whose brain had been kicked by a donkey was really compatible with the arrogant and vicious Miss Wang!

Li Yu looked at Wang Zhong mockingly and said, “If your Miss isn’t bad, why are you here? Since you like your Miss so much, I’ll help you.”

Wang Zhong thought to himself that he was not worthy. Not to mention that Ah Yue was the eldest daughter of the Wang family, even if she was the daughter of a concubine, she was still worlds apart from him. He suddenly hoped that Li Yu could really kidnap Ah Yue.

Li Yu glanced at Wang Zhong, whose expression kept changing. She turned around and walked out of the cellar. When she reached the entrance of the courtyard, she asked Xing Hua, “Xing Hua, are Ruyi and Ji Xiang back?”

Xing Hua thought for a moment and said, “Madam, Manager Ruyi came back alone. I didn’t see Manager Ji Xiang.”

Li Yu was about to go to the front yard to look for Ruyi when she saw Ruyi walking towards her.

When Ruyi approached, he asked worriedly when she saw Li Yu, “Madam, Uncle Liu said that someone tried to assassinate you. Where did they do it? When did it happen?”

Li Yu smiled faintly. “Don’t worry. On the way to the city from the wasteland, that abandoned house…” Li Yu explained the situation to Ruyi.”Have you checked on the Wang family? Do you know which street the Wang family is on? “I know. Last time, when the Wang family came to apologize, Master asked me to investigate the Wang family. Madam, do you want to go to the Wang family?”

Li Yu nodded and smiled faintly. “It’s impolite not to reciprocate. She’s so vicious at such a young age. If I don’t teach her a lesson, she will really think that I’m afraid of her.”

Ruyi bowed and said, “Madam, what do you want to do?”

“Doesn’t she think that she’s noble and that everyone else is inferior to her!” Li Yu thought of Wang Zhong and smiled slyly. “I think her little guard is deeply in love with her, so I might as well fulfill his wish!”

Ruyi thought to himself that Madam’s revenge was always so unexpected, but this was also the best punishment for Miss Wang.

“Madam, the Wang family’s residence is very big. There are still a few pills left from the medicine that Old Master prescribed for Master last time. You should rest first. I’ll go and ask the guard before we set off.”

Li Yu nodded. “You’ve thought it through. Check on the location and we’ll go at midnight.”

“Yes, Madam.” Ruyi went back to get the pills and headed for the cellar.

Li Yu returned to the room and took out the sleeve arrow to check it. She placed it aside and leaned against the pillow to look at Yangyang’s red face. She narrowed her eyes and fell asleep.

Ruyi went to the cellar and fed the medicine to Wang Zhong. He sat at the side and waited for the medicine to take effect. He knew that Wang Zhong had received an order to kidnap Li Yu and throw her into the mountains to feed the wolves. Ruyi restrained the anger in his heart and asked about the layout of the Wang family’s courtyard. He found out that there was a cluster of Chinese roses at the entrance of Miss Wang’s courtyard and a tall magnolia tree in the courtyard. He also got wind of the fact that the guards only patrolled the outer courtyard and the inner courtyard was patrolled by old women.

Ruyi returned to the house and drew a simple route map with the information he had uncovered. He sent it to the main courtyard for Gu Yu to pass to Li Yu. When he returned to the house, he thought of Li Yu’s method of pranking High Scholar Bai. He found two pieces of incense and tied them with thread before lying on the bed to rest.

Li Yu took the map from Gu Yu and looked at it carefully. She then placed the map in her space and lay on the bed to memorize it before closing her eyes.

After two hours, Ruyi woke up and changed into a set of grayish-black clothes. He brought along a grayish-black cloth towel, dagger, and incense. After greeting Xiaoyu, he went to the main courtyard to wait for Li Yu to set off.

Li Yu tied up the sleeve arrow and dagger and changed into a grayish-black shirt and pants. She came out of the main courtyard and handed the sleeve arrow to Ruyi, who was standing at the entrance. “The Wang family keeps guards. Take it to protect yourself.”

Ruyi took the sleeve arrow with both hands and tied it up. He said to Li Yu,

“Madam, we’ll go out through the small door in the back garden. There’s a small alley in the back street. It’s more secretive to go from there.”

“Alright, we’ll go through the small door in the back garden.” Li Yu led the way to the back garden with Ruyi following closely behind. The two of them left the back garden and entered the alley. Then, Ruyi walked in front and led the way. Li Yu and Ruyi passed through a few alleys and arrived outside a large

mansion..
