"Miss, this matter is caused by my ignorance and dereliction of duty. Please allow me to join the search team and make amends."

Shopkeeper Lou stood in front of Shen Mingshu with a face full of remorse, speaking sincerely.

It has been a day since the incident happened, but there is still no clue. Since Feng Xin has not left the city, he must have been hidden in the city.

But this matter is not easy to make a big deal, and they can't report it to the officials, so they can only solve it by their own ability.

These days, Shen Mingshu sent a lot of people to buy from jewelers who might have stocks, but they found nothing and felt a little headache. Hearing what he said, he slightly nodded his head and agreed.

"Shopkeeper Lou, don't be brave, your body is the most important thing, just do your best."

Shopkeeper Lou backed out with gratitude, the bag on the back of his head was still on, and with his gray hair, he looked quite miserable.

Shen Mingshu closed her eyes slightly and rubbed her forehead. After arriving at Linlang Pavilion early yesterday morning, she has been busy until now. She only slept for less than two hours in the middle, and she was indeed a little tired.

However, she couldn't rest now, she opened her eyes and asked softly, "What time is it?"

Qiu Nong replied softly, "It's the hour of the morning, Missy, do you want to rest for a while?"

Shen Mingshu shook his head, stood up, "Order to go down and get the carriage ready, let's go home first."

Today is the day for Shen Qingyue to return home, no matter what, she has to go back.

Luo Xin woke up not long after Shen Mingshu went out yesterday, and lay on the inner side of the bed blankly, with her hand on the position where Shen Mingshu usually lay beside her, as if she could still hold the other party's underwear.

Just now in her sleep, she touched the empty bed beside her, her heart skipped a beat, and she woke up early in the morning.

Luo Xin got up and called Lan in, only to realize that something happened at Linlang Pavilion, and she was quite worried, especially when Shen Mingshu didn't come back all night, she was even more worried.

Fortunately, she remembered that today was the day when Qingyue returned home, and her sister would definitely come back, so she could see how well her sister was doing.

When Shen Mingshu got off the carriage and stepped into the door, he saw Luo Xin walking over from a distance, her steps hurried.

Shen Mingshu stepped forward, and walked towards the main hall with Luo Xin, talking while walking.

Luo Xin saw that she had faint dark circles under her eyes, and felt a little distressed. She must have not had a good rest yesterday, and she couldn't help, so she could only quietly stay by her sister's side, trying her best to make her not have to worry about family affairs.

Shen Mingshu returned to the Shen residence and greeted Shen's father. After talking for a while, the carriage of the Rong family arrived.

Shen Qingyue and Rong Min, dressed up in women's buns, got out of the carriage, Rong Min got out of the carriage first, turned around and led Shen Qingyue's hand down, and entered the door together.

Father Shen and the others had been waiting for a long time. Seeing that Shen Qingyue's complexion was rosy and her spirits were good, she felt relieved, asked some homely questions, and Shen Qingjia was also on the sidelines to join in the fun.

After chatting for a short while, Shen's father and Shen Qingyue talked about the whisper between father and daughter, Rong Min and Shen Mingshu stood in the yard talking, Luo Xin glanced at them from afar, then retracted and looked at Shen Qingyue.

"Hasn't that person been found yet?" Rong Min asked with a frown, this was the first time that something happened to his value in these years, and the situation didn't seem to be very good.

Shen Mingshu shook his head, "Yangzhou City is not big, but it is not small. If you want to hide people, it will be difficult to find them."

Rong Min's face was a little ugly, and he said, "I don't know what the people behind the plan are planning? The news of Linlang Pavilion's accident has already spread, and I'm afraid that in a few days, Master Futai will also know about it. What should we do then?"

Shen Mingshu's eyes were calm, without a single ripple like the surface of a lake, and he said softly, "If you want to wait for Master Futai to know, that person will almost appear."

Speaking of this, she raised the corners of her lips slightly, showing a mocking smile, and said, "Rong Min, you don't need to intervene, I can adapt to the situation. After all, I have been waiting for these days, and finally I got this action."

A glimmer of light appeared in Rong Min's eyes, "You mean...?" She nodded thoughtfully, and said, "I see, since you know what's in your mind, I asked those people to withdraw. After hearing this, Yue was restless and had to find a way to comfort her."

Hearing Qingyue was mentioned, Shen Mingshu's expression became more relaxed, and he said, "Just take good care of her, don't make her think too much."

Shen Qingyue stayed with Rong Min all morning, got up and left after lunch.

After sending them away, Shen Mingshu was also about to get up and go back to Linlang Pavilion. Luo Xin sent her into the carriage, handed a food box in his hand to Qiu Nong, and said softly, "I made some soup and put some food, sister Sometimes you forget when you are busy, you remember to remind her."

Qiu Nong took it with both hands, responded softly, and got into the carriage with the food box in his hands. Luo Xin watched the carriage leave before turning his eyes away and returning to the room.

Qiu got into the carriage, saw Shen Mingshu's gaze fell on the food box, and whispered Luo Xin's instructions, Shen Mingshu nodded, and didn't say much, but his heart warmed up.

When she returned to Linlang Pavilion, because she hadn't recovered the stolen black pearl these days and didn't receive a spare one, those in charge who knew the inside story became a little irritable these days.

Shen Mingshu stepped up the stairs, when he heard two familiar voices, they were the stewards of Linlang Pavilion, who had been busy buying black pearls these days.

Shen Mingshu paused, and heard one of them say, "The jewel merchants, big and small, have gone all over, but they haven't received it. Seeing that the time for Master Futai's request is approaching, what should I do?"

The other sighed and said, "Isn't that right? Speaking of which, the Shen family's business has grown bigger and bigger over the years, but they have made a lot of enemies. The eldest lady is too ruthless, and now no one is willing to help."

"Isn't it? After all, the eldest lady is a woman, and her vision is a little shallow. If she had a relationship with the Wei family, maybe this matter can be saved again."

The two walked away while talking, Shen Liqiu followed behind Shen Mingshu, buried his head low, not daring to look at Shen Mingshu's expression.

Shen Mingshu's face was calm, and she even had a thought in her heart that the theft of the black pearl was the shopkeeper Lou's negligence, but if she couldn't solve it properly, it was due to her incompetence, and it might even be said that she didn't know people clearly. , This kind of thing happened because of lax control.

Since he has the heart, he can naturally find out many mistakes. Shen Mingshu smiled lightly, so it turned out that the person behind it had such an idea.

She stepped up the stairs and walked towards the study. The two were waiting in front of her door. When they saw her coming, they saluted respectfully.

Shen Mingshu nodded to let them in, and listened to their returns to the jewel merchants.

"In this way, there is no jewel merchant that has black pearls in stock." Shen Mingshu said in a flat tone.

The two people standing in front of the table looked at each other, hesitated for a moment, and one of them said, "The villain knows that the Wei family does have black pearls, but..."

What he didn't say, everyone understood in their hearts that the Wei family didn't win this business, so they were naturally dissatisfied with the Shen family. Earlier, the master of the Wei family looked down on the situation of the Shen family. Later, the young master of the Wei family took over the business Only then did they have some contacts with the Shen family, and now that the youngest of the Wei family is not in the city, the master of the Wei family is eager to see the Shen family suffer, so how could he possibly be willing to lend a helping hand.

Shen Mingshu said with a condensed expression, "I see, you have worked hard these days, go back and rest."

Those two bowed to leave, looked at each other and shook their heads after leaving, they offended Mr Futai, the Shen family might not get well in the future.

Shen Qingjia also heard about this, and when she went to Linlang Pavilion, seeing the faces of those in charge were not good, she was also a little worried, so she couldn't help asking a few more questions.

Originally, those shopkeepers thought that Shen Qingjia was just a son-in-law, and they didn't come to the shop very often on weekdays, so they hesitated whether to tell him.

But a few well-informed people thought that this young master of the Wei family seemed to have a good relationship, so they still told him about the current difficulties.

Shen Qingjia pondered for a moment, then said, "In that case, I will go to ask Brother Wei, shopkeepers have had a hard time these days."

Seeing Shen Qingjia's calm face, his polite words, and not flinching when he heard about this situation, the shopkeepers naturally nodded in their hearts, and looked up to him a bit.

I also heard him call the young master of the Wei family Brother Wei, obviously he has a good relationship, maybe he can really win, and the faces of the shopkeepers are also better.

After a few words of politeness with Shen Qingjia, they watched him leave before going off to attend to other matters.

This matter could not be delayed any longer, since Shen Qingjia agreed, she naturally had to take the initiative to find Wei Xuan to inquire about the situation.

When Zhang Xiulang heard about it, he specially used his own name to set up a bureau, and asked Wei Xuan out.

After drinking for three rounds, Shen Qingjia and Wei Xuan mentioned this matter, Wei Xuan showed some embarrassment on his face, and said bluntly, "I heard from my father about this matter, and I don't want to go against his wishes..."

Hearing what he said, Shen Qingjia begged, "I know that Brother Wei is a bit embarrassed about this, but at this moment, I can only be cheeky and ask Brother Wei for help. If it works, it will naturally benefit from Brother Wei."

Zhang Xiulang also said in the sidelines, "This business can't be negotiated, and your family can't sell well. Maybe it will be even more difficult with the Shen family in the future. It's better to sell a favor. If this matter is done well, the benefit will be in uncle's hands." Isn't it good to sell it in front of you?"

Wei Xuan's face was a little moved, Shen Qingjia kept saying good things, Wei Xuan dragged on for a while, saw Zhang Xiulang looking at him with a half-smile, and finally nodded.

"I'll do my best."

"Then thank you brother Wei, I will give you a big gift after the matter is completed."

Shen Qingjia was overjoyed, and simply toasted him three cups, and drank it cleanly.

Wei Xuan put on a smile again, and started to drink wine cheerfully, changing glasses at the table, while musicians sang ditties, creating a lively scene.
