Bang! The door was slammed shut. The sound of soldiers chasing came from outside.

Jin Xiaolou stood in a daze for a long time, and only after the voice had disappeared did she carefully open the door and take the chance to escape. Before she left the Mountain Note, he didn't forget to bring along the silver she had earned recently.

When he returned to Deer Lane, he had just reached Yin.

Gui Zhi was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. When he saw Jin Xiaolou, he heaved a sigh of relief, but after knowing that Jin Xiaolou had actually sneaked over to the Mountain Note, his heart tensed up again.

He quickly brought over some hot tea for Jin Xiaolou to drink before he went back to the cold air.

Gui Zhi had a lot to ask, but he was afraid that he would be delayed for a while longer. It was already dawn, and seeing how exhausted Lou Cheng looked, he quickly took off his clothes and went to sleep.

On the morning of the second day, Jin Xiaolou woke up and went into the kitchen.

He knocked open the eggshell, scattered the egg juice and mixed the flour before waiting for the hot oil in the wok to boil. Then, he picked up the bowl and poured the egg paste into the wok.

Sprinkled with green onions and black sesame seeds, the sweet fragrance of the baked egg mixed with the green onions was so fragrant that it made people feel like they were falling asleep.

The cake was served to the table. The five adults and the little guy finished it in the blink of an eye.

After resting for a while, Jin Xiaolou took out a piece of silver, which was one hundred liang, and gave it to Zhou Shuli: "Take the money to the village and give it to Uncle Sun. For the time being, don't let them deliver the goods to Mountain Note."

Although Jin Xiaolou was bailed out, she did not remove the suspicion, thus, she was not able to leave Xin Ning City. The hundred silver was just for the sake of settling the villagers.

With the Mountain Note sealed, for the time being, he was unable to take the goods. If he did not take out some silver and put it in there, the people in the village would be in turmoil.

After that, Jin Xiaolou took out another thirty silver, passing it to Gui Qi and the others, and said with a loud voice: "I shall pay you silver, and you two can enjoy yourselves while the Mountain Note is closed."

Lv Yun pushed the silver but did not accept it. She looked anxious: "Innkeeper, how can we be so heartless? The Mountain Note has just passed through a crisis, you tell us to go play by ourselves …"

He then turned his face away and said, "Anyway, I have no intention of doing so!"

Kuang Ruyue followed: "Lv Yun is right, no matter how much it is, we should at least help out."

Jin Xiaolou laughed: "Who said that if you go and play, you won't be able to help?"

Seeing the three of them looking at her with suspicion, she continued: "Take the silver and go to the restaurants, restaurants, and teahouses in Xin Ning City to play and help with Mountain Note."

Jin Xiaolou carefully thought about what Gao Lang had said.

If the murderer was Ruyi's enemy, it would be much easier to kill Ruyi, there was no need to do so many tricks, thus he did it all for the sake of wronging himself.

Either the culprits came for him, and only the people from the Jin Family had a motive, or they wanted the Mountain Note to close down. There were many other shops in the city that were jealous of the Mountain Note's business, and there were probably a lot of people who would turn their backs on him for money.

"All of you, enter the shop and take a good look at every shop assistant, including the shopkeeper. If you see anyone with a foot injury walking around, let me know immediately."

Jin Xiaolou also carried Lin'er, pocketed the silver, and looked for someone to eat and drink.

The first place she went to was the autumn moon wine house, because before Mountain Note's opening, Qiu Yue was one of the best in the city. After Mountain Note's opening, it was also the first time she went to the same way with her Mountain Note.

Based on this, it seemed like Qiu Yue was the most envious of the Mountain Note.

He brewed three cups of tea in the autumn and looked the shop assistant up and down, but there was no inconvenience at all.

Just like this, for three days, Jin Xiaolou and the other three people practically went back and forth across all the restaurants and tea shops filled with Xin Ning. They had tried all the special dishes in every house.

On this day, almost noontime, Jin Xiaolou carried Lin'er to the Jing Zhi Zai teahouse which was a little further away. At the corner of an alley, there were rouge shops on both sides of the street, facing a gambling den, which was not flourishing at all.

Jin Xiaolou found a place with a wide field of vision and sat down. She called for a Green Spring and drank tea while sizing up the shop assistant.

This was the last house, Jin Xiaolou was a little worried, if the killer's luck was that good, yet he did not manage to step on the wooden thorn, and his leg was not injured, how could he be able to find it?

Just as she was thinking about where else she could start from, a Attendant with a white handkerchief came over. He called Qian'er and said to her: "Miss, the honorable guest of the Ya Pavilion upstairs has invited you over."

Jin Xiaolou put down her tea cup, hugged the Lin'er who was staggering in front of him, and asked curiously: "Esteemed guest? "Who wants to see me?"

The Attendant truthfully reported: "Young Madame County Magistrate Mansion, said that it is a long time since I have last seen you, Miss, and would like to talk about old times with you."

Jin Xiaolou laughed coldly: "Goodbye, I have no relationship with that noble one, go back to her."

After he finished speaking, he started drinking the tea by himself.

The Attendant, however, did not leave. He hesitated and said: "Young lady, you should go. I am just a servant. "I can't tell you."

As he said that, his face flushed red, and his embarrassed and flustered look made Jin Xiaolou's heart soften a little.

Although his own absence had nothing to do with the Attendant, as long as the noble guest was unhappy, then the Attendant would lose most of his money and lose his job.

Thus, he nodded his head, hugged the Lin'er and said to the Attendant: "Lead the way."

Attendant immediately bowed gratefully and brought Jin Xiaolou to the second floor's private room.

Opening the curtain, inside the pavilion sat a lady wearing a red dress, with beads of jade shining from her hair, it was Jin Xiaotao.

Jin Xiaotao came to see the doctor.

She had been married for a few days, but she was not pregnant yet. If she called her husband over to the mansion, people would probably find out about it, so she spent some money to invite the Sacred Gym Hand to a secluded place in Xin Ning City.

Just as the doctor finished reading the recipe and passed it to Chun Zhu, who was next to Jin Xiaotao, Jin Xiaotao turned her head and caught a glimpse of Jin Xiaolou sitting downstairs.

What caused Jin Xiaotao's eyes to shine was the snow white and cute child in Jin Xiaolou's embrace.

If she was unable to give birth to a child after so long … If Jin Xiaolou comes back in the future with her children to share He Guangkun's family property …

Even if He Guangkun did not remember now, there was still his blood on the child's body. A disaster.

Jin Xiaotao laughed, then suddenly opened her mouth and said to Jin Xiaolou who had just entered the room: "Jin Xiaolou, do you envy me?"

Without waiting for Jin Xiaolou to reply, Jin Xiaotao had already raised her chin a little, and started to speak: "Our three Jin Family sisters are really alike in blood and different lives. In the past, Jin Xiaofeng was the most pampered at home, and you were the most wronged. But right now, Jin Xiaofeng is living a life worse than death, and you are not much either. Only I have not only married into the County Magistrate Mansion, but I have also plotted a good future for He Guangkun. "

Jin Xiaotao said one word at a time: "My honor in the future is something that you wouldn't dare to think about."

Their voices were all filled with satisfaction and contempt for Jin Xiaolou.

"Oh." Jin Xiaolou said indifferently: "If you intentionally called me up to show off, then it's all over now, I can leave now!"

Saying that, he turned around and was about to leave.

"Halt!" Jin Xiaotao never thought that Jin Xiaolou would actually be so unconcerned, she instantly stood up, "Jin Xiaolou, don't pretend to be indifferent, do you know who the Young Master Huang is? He Guangkun followed him and did things from behind.

As he said that, he laughed with disdain: "Speaking of which, you and He Guangkun had some sort of dewy relationship, and even managed to give birth to this child. It's just that, to him, you were happy the entire night, and after you got up, you completely forgot about it. So what if you have a child, the one who married him in the end wasn't me. "

Jin Xiaolou turned around and smiled: "Big sister is very intelligent, I can't compare to her. As for the Lin'er, it has nothing to do with He Guangkun, you can rest assured."

"However, I still have to advise my sister." Jin Xiaolou slowly said, "Golden Fragrance's plan is far better than Big Sister's, but she can calculate everything thoroughly, and she will not be able to escape a destiny."

Jin Xiaolou saw Golden Fragrance die a violent death with her own eyes, so what? She thought that with the crown prince around, they would be rich, but she did not know that the more illustrious and prestigious she was, the more dangerous it was.

Jin Xiaotao scoffed, she did not believe that Jin Xiaolou was not envious of her, but was just being stubborn.

He even pulled Golden Fragrance out. Sure enough, if she couldn't eat the grapes, she said they were sour.

Jin Xiaotao rolled her eyes, endured her temper as she spoke out the plans he had, "If you are willing, I can actually bring Lin'er over. You are Lin'er's mother, so you must be thinking wholeheartedly for your son."

"But you are only a peasant girl, and now you are in business again. Your status is extremely low. In the future, your son will not be able to raise his head up like he grew up and become a human being.

Jin Xiaotao's plans worked. Regardless of whether or not the Golden Lin'er was He Guangkun's child, if he fell into Jin Xiaolou's hands, he would worry about her carrying his son and causing trouble from time to time. It would be better to carry him back to the manor and raise him under his knee.

Unexpectedly, Jin Xiaolou's eyes were focused on looking out of the half-opened window, not listening to what Jin Xiaotao had to say at all.

Jin Xiaotao was clear that this Golden Lin'er was Jin Xiaolou's last bargaining chip. It would not be so easy to get here, so she wanted to say more but Jin Xiaolou turned around and rushed out with Lin'er in her arms.

The window of the pavilion just happened to face the gambling den opposite the tea house. When Jin Xiaolou heard the nonsense that was said, she looked outside, and coincidentally saw Song Ruyi's brother, Song Yi, walk out of the gambling house with a darkened face.

Jin Xiaolou didn't even think about it as she quickly followed from a distance.

He turned into a small alley and walked through several streets. Then, he saw Song Yidao tiptoeing towards the back of a large tree.

Jin Xiaolou hurriedly hugged Lin'er and squatted down to pretend to pick up the things, then slightly raised his head to look behind the tree not far away, only to see a sturdy man wearing a grey and blue cloth robe stuffing a bulging bag of things into Song Yidao's hands.
