Xiaowan seemed to understand some of what was being said. Could it be that the strange thing that happened these few days was because of this ring?

"Remember, do not tell anyone else. It will not work if you tell them."

Xiaowan's number one was thinking about Ling Chaofeng, and immediately asked: "Even my husband can't say?"

Everything before her was so real that even her husband could not speak of it. Xiaowan could clearly see the wrinkles on her face, but she hurriedly left after reminding him that it was a secret that even her husband could not speak of.

"Granny, I still can't accept this ring." Xiaowan wanted to give chase, but she tripped on Qu Fu who was tied up. Seeing that she was about to fall, she panicked and opened her eyes once again. It was actually a dream.

He sat up and realized that he had already returned to the tavern and was lying on his bed in her and Ling Chaofeng's room.

"Morning Wind …" Was it also a dream to find a husband? Was he not back yet?

Xiaowan got up from the bed and rushed to the door and opened it. Ling Chaofeng was just standing there with his hands raised, about to push open the door, when he saw her so anxious, he couldn't help but laugh: "Are you afraid that I'm not there anymore?"

Xiaowan's heart dropped back to her stomach and she hugged the man. Ling Chaofeng smiled and brought her back to his room, admonishing her: "At least wear a pair of shoes."

"I'm not cold." held Xiaowan's feet in his embrace, while her eyes stared at her husband and asked worriedly, "Husband, is Second Master Feng okay?"

Ling Chaofeng nodded: "I'm fine."

Xiaowan remembered something as she said cautiously, "The other day I heard Master Feng talking to himself, saying that his second brother died well. Husband, do you think …"

Ling Chaofeng shushed her and said gently: "This matter is over, don't think about it anymore."

After that, Xiaowan brought some hot water to cover Ling Chaofeng's face, and watched him shave with curved eyebrows. Ling Chaofeng splashed some water on her face and the two played for a while. Then, he and the rest of the merchants would return to the Baisha Town to take care of Second Master Feng's affairs.

The only thing left in the shop were a few reliable shop assistants, who were probably there to guard their goods. The goods were locked in the cellar of the tavern, with one key in Ling Chaofeng's hand and the other key in Boss Feng's own hands.

"It's very common for merchants to keep their goods in our stores." The Aunt Zhang told the Xiaowan, "The rumors of us stealing their money were naturally made up. They only saw the boxes being moved in, it is normal for them not to move them out."

It was the first time that the Xiaowan had come to the cellar. Although she had burnt some paper money in front of the door with the Aunt Zhang, she had not noticed a door that led underground from the back of the stable.

"Wait until Boss Feng leaves, then get the shopkeeper to take you in and take a look." The Aunt Zhang said mysteriously yet proudly, "Evening, follow the shopkeeper and live a good life in peace."

Xiaowan blushed and said guiltily: "I went out myself this morning and made Aunt worried. I am truly sorry."

Aunt Zhang laughed instead. "Young man, how can you do without hot blood? Your aunt has also been young before."

When she looked at the bride and saw her devoutly praying for the dead, she felt assured in her heart. The shopkeeper had never wanted to start a family, but after looking for her, he found a good girl for her.

After finishing her business at the shop, Xiaowan went back to her room to pack her stuff. She suddenly remembered her dream, and rubbed the ring on her right hand.

She still remembered what her mother-in-law had said. It was so clear that it didn't seem like a dream.

Thinking back, after the night of marriage, many incredible things had happened, not just the sheets that could fly and wash. Further up, that day she angrily hoped that Second Madam would fall off the pedals and he fell into the water in the blink of an eye. That night, when she wanted to blow on the oil lamp to extinguish it, it went out immediately.

Although it was just a small matter, it was too much of a coincidence.

Looking around the marriage chamber, Xiaowan wanted to find something to give it a try. It didn't matter if it was weak, if it was intelligent … Her gaze landed on the Lovers Terrace, which was embroidered with mandarin ducks and ducks, as well as graceful butterflies. It was almost mid-autumn, and no butterflies could be seen anywhere, so Xiaowan followed her mother-in-law's instructions and lightly clenched her fists.

The colorful butterflies surrounded her. Xiaowan opened her eyes in shock, timidly extended her finger, and a butterfly stopped at her fingertip, gently flapping its wings, showing no sign of being afraid of anyone.

"Evening!" Outside, Aunt Zhang suddenly called out to her.

"I'm here …" Xiaowan replied. In an instant, all the butterflies disappeared.

After dealing with Aunt Zhang, she went back to her room and looked at the butterfly on the cloth. She remembered that her mother-in-law had said in her dreams that there could only be one wish a day.

Sitting on the bed, Xiaowan's heart was thumping hard. It was true, the things in her dreams were actually true.

But as she calmed down, thinking back to last night when Ling Chaofeng was taken away by the yamen, she felt as if someone had dug away a part of his heart in pain, so she secretly made up her mind.

After the marriage, she no longer suffered, she ate well and dressed warmly, she lived in a spacious and clean house, someone who cared for her and loved her appeared at her side. God gave her all the good things in the world at once, how could she be capable of that?

Perhaps this ring was a test from the heavens, and one shouldn't be too greedy.

Thinking this way, Xiaowan became at ease. She touched the ring and whispered, "If you are truly intelligent, then I will protect my husband and you well. I will be satisfied with the rest."

She got up and knelt in front of the window. She kowtowed to the heavens and said something to thank the heavens.

That night, Ling Chaofeng still did not return, but the Ershan that followed him, brought a message with him. He was going to watch the night with his brother with Boss Feng, so Xiaowan was relieved.

As for Second Master Feng's funeral, it was arranged on the spot. After it was cremated, it would be sent back to the capital. Two to three days later, the whole town would be in an uproar.

Early that morning, in the Siyun Pavilion of the new rouge shop in town, the servant Little Cui hurriedly ran back and curiously told her young miss, "That day, at the inn we went to, it was a black shop. Miss, their shop specializes in killing people and robbing their goods. A few days ago, another person died, but fortunately, we did not stay for long. "

Yue Huaiyin was quietly mixing the powder in her hands. Hearing Little Cui's chattering, she could not help but have a headache as she said: "Alright, what haven't I seen before? I'm just making a big fuss, why don't we go watch the business?"

Little Cui laughed: "It's almost the Mid-Autumn Festival, there's a market in the Mid-Autumn Festival, at that time, all the women from the eight villages will come. Young miss, on that day, we will be earning a lot of money. I went to a few rouge shops in town and walked around. It was very cold and there weren't even any boxes of proper powder. "

Huai Yin sniffed the newly made scented powder and passed it to Little Cui, and laughed: "Do you smell good? "I plan to put it in a small box and take it to the ladies on the street on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival."

On the same day, Second Master Feng's back affairs were settled. Boss Feng followed Ling Chaofeng and rushed back to Ling Xiao Inn, delaying their return to the capital.

The Aunt Zhang said that it was rare for them to open the cellar and let the Xiaowan take a look. However, just as she reached the door, she heard Boss Feng speak.

She turned around to leave, but he heard Boss Feng say: "Manager Ling, thank you for this matter. Only by staying with you will I be able to take action. That beast deserved to die. If I kill him, I'll be safe. "Leave this box of stuff here as a thank you gift."

Xiaowan's heart suddenly tightened and two men slowly walked out. Seeing her here, they were also startled and Boss Feng frowned: "Manager Ling? "What's going on?"

Ling Chaofeng quickly replied: "It's fine, Boss Feng only wants to go to the capital. As for Second Elder, we will end it here."

As he spoke, he invited Boss Feng to move forward. Walking past Xiaowan, he coldly glared at her and said softly: "Stand still and don't move. Wait for me to come back."
