“Where have you three been?”

Madam Li’s expression was slightly displeased as she looked at Daohua, Wentao, and Wenkai returning together.

Daohua smiled and said, “Mother, we just went for a casual stroll.”

Madam Li frowned and said, “What about Manman?” As she spoke, she turned to Wenkai, “And what about both of your servants?”

Daohua stepped forward, took Madam Li’s arm, and smiled, “Mother, I saw the camellias behind the temple bloomed exceptionally well, so I had Manman go pick some. But I was worried about her being alone, so I sent the servants with her too.”

“Mother, don’t be angry. Once the camellias are picked, I will make some lip balm and bring you the first one.”

Madam Li glanced sideways at her daughter with displeasure: “Look at you all, grown people already. Even if you want to go out and about, you should at least inform your elders beforehand. Suddenly disappearing like that, doesn’t it make people worry?”

Daohua shook Madam Li’s arm, “Mother, we won’t dare do it again next time.”

Madam Li looked at the three of them and said, “Alright, come with me to the courtyard, your grandmother must be anxious by now, and the temple’s novice has also delivered the vegetarian meal.”

At mealtime, Daohua said to the old Madam Yan and Madam Li, “Grandmother, Mother, it’s peak season for pears now, I’m planning to stay in Taohua Village for a while to pickle some, so Old Madam Gu won’t run out.”

Old Madam Yan asked, “Has Old Sister Gu’s cough improved?”

Daohua nodded, “Much better.”

Madam Li was silent for a moment, then glanced at her daughter, “…Yunyan and Yunxi are still at our place, so make sure you come back early and don’t neglect our guests.”

Daohua nodded repeatedly, smiling, “Mother, rest assured, I’ll head to Taohua Village this afternoon and promise to come back as soon as I’m done.”

Madam Li was surprised, “Today? What’s the rush?”

Daohua hesitated, “It’s just that I ran out of the preserved pears I had before, so I’m in a hurry.”

Madam Li was about to say something more, but old Madam Yan chuckled and interjected, “Alright, the girl knows what she’s doing, you don’t need to worry so much. We rarely get to go out, so let yourself relax a bit.”

Madam Li had no choice but to nod and smile, “Yes, Mother.”

…

The docks at the outskirts of Ningmen Prefecture.

Qin Xiaoliu, along with Qin Xing, Qin Wang, Tieshou, and Tietou, exhausted themselves carrying two heavy boxes onto the ship.

Wang Manman stood to one side, keeping watch.

“These five lads are really heavy!”

Qin Xiaoliu wiped the sweat from his forehead, then opened the chests to check and seeing all five unconscious, he said, “There’s no need to close the boxes, we wouldn’t want to suffocate them.”

Having said that, he led the other four out of the cabin.

No sooner had they left, Wei Qi and Wu Jingyi swiftly opened their eyes.

The two were often in contact with sleeping powders and had developed some resistance.

Wei Qi struggled to sit up, poked his head out of the box to look around, and after determining there was no danger, he breathed a sigh of relief.

At this point, Wu Jingyi also popped his head out, panting, “Eunuch An should think about losing weight, his bulk nearly suffocated me.”

Upon saying that, he exchanged a look with Wei Qi.

Then both of them revealed a bitter expression.

To think, one a dignified leader of the Imperial Guards, and the other a commander of the five armies, had been knocked out and tied up by a few youngsters, it was downright embarrassing.

Wu Jingyi grumbled, “To spend all day hunting geese only to be pecked by one, it’s really absurd.”

Wei Qi didn’t speak, he tried to shrink back, careful not to bump into the Fifth Master in the same box.

Wu Jingyi looked around, “What do we do now?”
