"Old man, how much do you sell this candy man for?" Wen Ren Yihuan asked in a gentle voice.

"One cent each. I have all kinds of them. Young man, which one do you want..." The old man hurriedly showed off his stall.

“Meow… Fox… I want to eat that…” Milk Tea Master Meow popped out a cat head from behind his bow tie and meowed at a sugar man in the shape of a kitten.

Anyway, it's a prop cat and there are no dietary restrictions.

"Okay." Wenren Yihan tapped its head.

"This, that, and a few more at the back." There were about a dozen sugar figures on the stall, and Wen Ren Yihan bought half of them.

The old man laughed so hard that he couldn't close his mouth, and hurriedly helped Wenren Yihan pack up.

"Young man, you are not from our town, are you?" The old man then realized that Wenren Yihuan's dress was not like that of an ordinary person.

"Old man, I'm here to look for my brother's friends in town, but I suspect I've come to the wrong place. Is there a Bai family in this town?"

Wen Ren Yihuan made a circle with his tongue and concealed the fact that he was attending the Yuan family wedding, wanting to find out the "Bai Yingmei" on the reward plaque.

"Young man, you've asked the right person. Our town is not very big. I've been working here since I was a kid, so I know the people in this town very well."

After giving Wenren Yihuan a broken piece of candy as a gift, the old man sighed and continued, "There was indeed a family with the surname Bai many years ago, but now... Alas..."

"What's wrong now, meow?" The milk tea master meowed.

"Meow?" the old man asked in confusion.

"You heard wrong, I said 'ah'." Wenren Yihan poked the milk tea master's head.

"Oh... you see, I'm old now, my ears and eyes are not very sharp." The old man picked his ears.

"The Bai family used to be a wealthy family in the town, and they were very prosperous. Unfortunately, a few years ago, a fire burned them all down. Alas... Mr. Bai was a kind man..."

"Then do you know Bai Yingmei?" Wen Ren Yihuan asked, turning the wooden sign in his pocket.

"Miss Bai is Mr. Bai's most beloved youngest daughter." The old man looked around, made sure no one cared about this side, and lowered his voice.

The fire happened strangely, and it was announced to the public that all members of the Bai family had died, with only a few servants who were still working at night surviving.

However, the people who handled the funeral said after drinking that they had not seen Miss Bai's body at all. The little girl was so young that she was nowhere to be found.

After the old man finished speaking, he sighed a few more times.

Wenren Yihan tried to find out the relationship between the Yuan family and the Bai family.

The old man is also a straightforward person. He tells you everything he knows and even wants to introduce you to all the relationships among the people in the town.

"By the way, young man, I see you are at the age to get married. Do you have a suitable candidate? If not, I, an old man..." The old man suddenly started to worry about Wang Po.

Before Wenren Yihuan could speak, Gong Samo, who had been squatting for a long time, carrying bags and boxes diligently, came in front of Wenren Yihuan.

"Woof..." Shaking off the "weight" on his body, Gong, a Samoyed, accused a fox of exploiting underage puppy puppies.

"It's tired. I'll leave now, old man. I'll come back to buy candy figures when I have a chance."

After saying goodbye politely, Wenren Yihan directly picked up the Samoyed Gong that had been "rolling" on the ground for a long time, and let it stick to his white and neat shirt without any disgust.

When I slowly returned to the Yuan family, the sun was already halfway down.

Wenren Yihan tore some chicken leg meat and fed it to a man named Samo, while trying to figure out what the old man was saying.

The Yuan family and the Bai family were old friends. After a fire in the Bai family, the Yuan family took over almost all of the Bai family's business and assets and became the richest family in the town. Is there something fishy going on here?

But he also mentioned that the heads of the Bai and Yuan families were also well-known good people when they were young.

"Yi An said that people will never complain about being rich. Is that true, Gong Chi?"

Wenren Yihan leaned on the table with his arms propped up and winked at the dog that was eating.

"Woof." Gong Samo nodded.

"Meow meow fox, people are fickle meow." Milk tea master meow interrupted while licking the little sugar cat madly.

Duan Ran, who stayed behind, rushed in and poured tea without saying a word. He drank two or three cups in big gulps, snatched a piece of chicken leg from Gong Satsuma, and then started talking about business.

"Brother Fox, the Yuan family caught a girl today, and Yuan Peishan also locked up his wife."

"Hmm?" Wenren Yihan motioned for him to continue.

It seems that things are not going well in the Yuan family today. The milk tea master Meow considerately got a plate of melon seeds from somewhere.

"When we were keeping vigil, didn't the Yuan family say that there was a person missing from the coffin? It turns out that Mr. Yuan's first wife hid him."

I thought the plot would unfold on the wedding day, but now I really can't relax at all.

Madam Li had long lived alone in a small Buddhist courtyard in the Yuan residence and had not been involved in the affairs of the mansion for many years.

It was a maid who delivered meals who discovered that someone was hiding in the Buddhist temple. The elder who knew about this was furious. He ordered his men to put Madam Li under house arrest and kidnap the girl who was discovered.

"Where's the girl?"

According to Duan Ran's personality, he would not just leave it alone and come back like this.

"I let him go secretly," Duan Ran patted his thigh, looking quite heroic.

The Yuan family killed someone, and Madam Li let him go.

This is very interesting. Perhaps Mrs. Li knows something. Wenren Yihan decides to go and meet her.

[Although I told everyone to wait patiently until the wedding day, it seems like something is getting angry, meow.

Please be prepared to be attacked at any time, after all, you have been so leisurely these past two days.

The moon climbed to the highest point of the peach tree in the yard.

A certain Gong surnamed Samoyed was not in the bed. Wenren Yihan tried calling him twice but got no response. The milk tea master Meow was also nowhere to be found.

Guessing that he must have something to do and not wanting to delay any longer, Wenren Yihan put on his clothes and planned to go find Madam Li under the cover of night.

As soon as his feet stepped on the shoes, a chill came up from the bottom, and Wen Ren Yihuan suddenly disappeared from his sleepiness.

His shoes were a pair of leather boots, but the touch under his feet was clearly silk.

A pair of bright red embroidered shoes.

After comparing them seriously, Wenren Yihuan shook his head and said, "It's too small. I can't wear it."

"There are so many unfaithful people in the world, but how many of them get revenge? They are skinned and bones removed..."

The voice was mournful and hoarse. It was the ballad that Duan Ran hummed in his dream when he was controlled.

"... a handful of yellow earth, no body found, no one to cry..."

Wenren Yihan walked barefoot on the ground, and the bells hanging on her ankles jingled.

In the blink of an eye, the vision was filled with red.

The smell of blood that seemed to be old made Wenren Yihuan feel stuffy in his chest.

"rustle".

The astonishingly long red silk "flowed" in the house as if it had life, following the walls and around the pillars, weaving a large net in just a few tens of seconds.
