Chapter 630: Chapter 630: An Ziyi (4)_1

At the table, apart from the Old Madame, there were four other young ladies present. They included the legitimate Third Young Lady An Zixue from the main branch, the Fourth and Fifth Mis Misses An Ziqing and An Ziyi, who were born from concubines, as well as Lady Mei’s niece Fu Qiufang. Fu’s family, fearing the recent flower-picking thief in the town, thought the An Mansion had many housekeepers, so the thief wouldn’t dare to enter. Therefore, they sent their daughter to temporarily stay at the An Mansion, planning to take her back once the thief was caught.

The Young ladies were all very well-cultured. They ate very elegantly, lips sealed, chewing without making a sound. Cai Wei imitated their behavior, eating in little bites. Old Madame An showed great affection towards Cai Wei, not only did she serve her several times but also asked her where she planned to live upon returning. Hearing that Cai Wei planned on moving back to her old house, the Old Madame immediately said firmly: "No!"

Then she earnestly added: "Girl, it’s not that this old lady wants to meddle, but at the moment this flower-picking thief is creating a lot of havoc. In the town, more than twenty girls have been tragically murdered already. Now, you alone, with your good looks, living by yourself, isn’t that asking for death? In my opinion, you would be better off temporarily living at my mansion till that damned flower-picking thief is caught by the government office and everything calms down."

ZiYi also said, "Sister Cai Wei, listen to grandmother, move in with us, after all, you’ll have companions."

Though Cai Wei was very grateful in her heart for Old Madame An’s and ZiYi’s kindness, she simply couldn’t accept. She wanted to use herself as bait to lure the flower-picking thief. So, she had no choice but to politely decline their offers.

Seeing her insistence on not staying at the An’s mansion for a while, Old Madame An gave her careful instructions and advisement before letting her go.

Upon leaving the An Mansion, Cai Wei immediately contacted Brother Parrot, and asked about Lü Junchen’s situation.

The reply she got from Brother Parrot was both disappointing and expected.

"Master, you were not wrong, Tianjizi’s human head is indeed hidden in Lü Junchen’s house. However, it’s not completely dead, just weak to the point I couldn’t even find it from outside. It seems to be barely alive, occasionally it is able to exchange a word or two with Lü Junchen. Lü Junchen has been meditating cross-legged for a few hours, I don’t know what the demonic technique he is cultivating is."

"You’re doing well, keep watching them for now. Be aware, and take care not to be discovered by them."

Cai Wei solemnly instructed. She was still not aware of their divine methods, and did not know what kind of demonic technique they had cultivated, so she dared not kill them rashly. She could only have Brother Parrot keep monitoring them till she got to know their exact status, then she can cut them all in one fell swoop.

In the Duke An’s Mansion

News of CaiWei being taken away by a tiger had arrived at Duke An’s Mansion a few days ago. At first, everyone was on the edge, fearing that Young Lady Mu might have survived, and could return unexpectedly, so nobody dared to do anything overly drastic. But a few days had passed since, and there was still no news of her. If she had survived, she should have returned long ago. Since she had not yet returned, there could only be one explanation - she was dead!

For Old Madam Wang, this was utterly delightful news.

Ever since that little b*tch had returned to the mansion, not only didn’t they get any benefit from her, but she also scammed them into paying over ten thousand taels of silver, not to mention a dozen competent servants were taken away by her. Even Old Madam Wang herself had been living in fear without knowing what to expect from her. Now, things were finally turning around. God had finally given due justice by taking that little cheap hoof away, and Old Madam Wang was finally able to vent her anger.

"Servants!"

Old Madam Wang sat majestically on the babu bed, with a frown, and gave orders: "Tell Steward Cao to go to Mu Family’s manor and bring Lady Mei back. Also, bring back all the servants who were assigned to the manor before!"
