“Yes, Madam.”
As Ye Muyu walked away, the crowd behind her slowly found their place and stopped blocking.
After Ye Muyu dealt with this small incident, she returned to her seat.
In a distant corner, Tang Rou, whose face was covered with a cloth, had a look of resentment in her eyes. She unwillingly tightened the handkerchief in her hand.
This scheme was indeed designed by her. As long as Madam Yates bent down to pick up the sachet, the people she hired would cause a panic. In the panic, someone would take advantage of the situation to knock Madam Ye out and take her away.
Then, she would find a random place to deal with Ye Muyu.
She would find another opportunity to be intimate with Chu Heng. At that time, with the Tang family’s greedy personality, they would definitely help her. At that time, she would be able to sit firmly in the position of Chu Heng’s wife!
Unfortunately… Tang Rou tightened her handkerchief and turned around to instruct the few strong men beside her. Her words had a hidden meaning. “In such a busy time, it shouldn’t be a big deal to lose a few children in the county. I just don’t know if that kidnapper came to the county.”
With so many people, there must be kidnappers. However, everyone who came to the county took good care of their children.
Ye Muyu sat down on the stool, feeling a little uneasy.
“Lu Chuan, go and guard Ah Jin.” Ye Muyu touched her heart and made up her mind.
Lu Chuan was puzzled.”Madam, Master asked me to watch over you. Young
Master has Zhang Shu with him.”
“My family is here. It’ll be fine. Go. I’ll explain to Chu Heng when he comes back.”
“Yes, Madam.” Lu Chuan listened to Chu Heng more often. When Chu Heng and Ye Muyu’s orders conflicted, he subconsciously hesitated.
It was until Ye Muyu reminded him in a steady voice. Chu Heng would definitely not be angry with Madam. If he did not listen to Madam, he would be courting death.
Lu Chuan had never had the habit of courting death, so he decisively chose to listen.
After confirming that Lu Chuan was going to protect Lil’ Jin, Ye Muyu turned to Chu Liushi and said, “Mother, there might be some thieves and kidnappers today.”
“We can’t let the children leave our sights.”
Ye Muyu had a hunch that something like this would happen.
However, it was difficult to find the kidnappers and thieves. Moreover, there were many people on the streets now. If they chased after them, there might be casualties.
She could only wait for Chu Heng to return and spread the news to the magistrate as much as possible.
Then, the county magistrate would remind the crowd on the high platform.
They could tried their best to avoid any accidents.
She could only try her best to help her own family. She could not control other people’s families. Even if the county magistrate said so, there were probably some people who did not care.
Fortunately, the Chu family cared about their children.
“That’s right. Why don’t we go back? The children at home have finished competing anyway.” Madam Liu knew that the children who were abducted by kidnappers were basically impossible to find.
As for the thieves stealing silver, they did not bring much silver with them today because they were afraid that they would be robbed if there were too many people.
After Madam Liu finished speaking, she tilted her head and looked at Madam Zhang. “Madam Zhang, what do you think? We’ll go back first? As for when the county magistrate announced the rankings later, we’ll just call someone back.” Madam Zhang and Chu Qingxiang were looking forward to the final ranking, while Chu Cai went to fetch Chu Qingxiang and Chu Qingyu.
However, when she saw her two young sons beside her, she hesitated.
On the other hand, Madam Wang hugged her six-year-old son Chu Bo tightly and said without hesitation, “Mother, I want to go back.”
She did nit care about the ranking at all. She had heard what Ye Muyu said just now. Ever since she sold the pickled vegetables, she had sincerely chosen to believe in her third sister-in-law. She felt that she was outstanding and that there must be some truth in her words..
