Chapter 496

Chapter 496

Today is already the ninth day of August, and the marriage of the Jun and Ye families is going on bustlingly, but the bride is nowhere to be found.

Tomorrow is the wedding day.

At this time, the news of Ye Qingyao's disappearance was still suppressed, but there were some rumors.As long as Ye Qingyao shows up tomorrow, the rumors will be self-defeating.

But if Ye Qingyao didn't show up, everyone would know about it.

Failure to get married is a rebellion, and the disappearance of a woman is a ruin of reputation.

Even if she is found in the future, and the bride is taken away by "robbers" on the eve of the wedding, Ye Qingyao's marriage will be over.

It was raining heavily, and Ye Muxi was recuperating in bed. Looking at Nangong Lin who was sleeping next to her, she stretched out her hand to tuck him in the quilt.

"Miss, the old matriarch and the second lady said they were in a hurry, did you see it or not?" Wan Qiu came in and asked softly.

Ye Muxi glanced at Nangong Lin and said, "Help me to the outer hall."

"Yes."

Ye Muxi was still seriously ill, and her face was pale. Fortunately, Liu Yuezhu saved her life and Sai Huatuo's prescription gave her a little bit of energy, and she was able to get out of bed.

"Mu Xi, I heard that you are sick, but are you better?" The old lady asked with concern, "You have finally returned safely. I have been unable to sleep at night after being worried for the past few days. Now that I see you, I finally feel relieved." Minute."

Ye Muxi pursed her lips and smiled, "Grandma Lao is worried, everything is fine for Mu Xi. Grandma, you just recovered from illness, so don't worry too much."

"Hey, when I think of Qingyao, how can I not worry about it. Mu Xi, after searching for so many days, have you found Qingyao's whereabouts?" The old lady said worriedly, "There is no news for so many days, it must have been... ..."

Ye Muxi said with relief, "Grandma, don't worry. If the thief wanted to kill Qingyao, he would have done so at that time. There is no need to do anything extra. I guess the thief should have no intention of hurting Qingyao's life."

In fact, maybe the other party really wanted to kill Ye Qingyao, but to comfort the old man, Ye Muxi naturally chose to say it.

Up to now, I still don't know what happened to the jade hairpin, interrogating Ye Wanxue was fruitless, and she never let go.

It seems that Ye Wanxue has grown a lot in the past year.

"After searching for so many days, I can't find it. Tomorrow's big wedding, Qingyao failed to show up. How can the wedding ceremony continue?" Shen Yunpei said.

This is a problem.

"I'm afraid that at that time, Qingyao's disappearance will not be concealed. She was taken away by thieves. Even if she returns in the future, how can she continue this marriage..." The old lady wept silently.

Ye Muxi realized something, glanced at Shen Yunpei and said, "What's the trick of Er Niang?"

"It's not a brilliant move, but there is a way to take care of Ye's family and the royal face." Shen Yunpei was overjoyed, but said with a look of consideration for Ye Qingyao, "I expected that Qingyao might be able to find it in a few days. Now, you can't make mistakes at such a crucial point. Why don't you let someone replace Qingyao to pay respects to tomorrow's big wedding. Anyway, you'll be covered with a hijab, and you won't be noticed. You won't be absent in front of everyone in the world."

Ye Muxi's face was calm, and she said calmly, "Then Er Niang, who is the replacement?"

"I also ask Mu Xi to give Xueer a chance to commit crimes and make meritorious deeds. Let Xueer replace Qingyao and marry Mr. Jun. When Qingyao comes back in the future, Xueer will return the position to her. I am not doing it for my own sake. , This is entirely for the face of the royal family and Ye Jiajun's family, and even more for Qingyao. Otherwise, tomorrow, the world will know that Qingyao is missing." Shen Yunpei quickly expressed her loyalty.

The old lady sighed, "If you can't find Qingyao, this is the only way to keep Qingyao's reputation and marriage."

On the surface, this method seems to be a helpless move for not being able to find Qingyao.But Ye Muxi didn't know Shen Yunpei's wolf ambition.

As long as Ye Wanxue and Jun Mochen pay homage, they will definitely use this excuse to rely on Jun Mochen in the future.

Moreover, such a big event as paying homage is not a trifle.Find someone to replace her, where will Qingyao be placed?

Ye Muxi still doesn't know how it will end tomorrow.But Shen Yunpei's hasty approach is really disgusting.In order to help Ye Wanxue take the position, she is really shameless.

"We'll talk about tomorrow's matter tomorrow. Er Niang, please go back." Ye Muxi said lightly.

The old lady said earnestly, "Muxi, I love Qingyao very much, but if the wedding ceremony cannot continue tomorrow, Qingyao will lose her reputation in front of the world, which will harm her. Think again."

"Grandmother, Mu Xi understands. It's not the last moment, and we're still looking for it." Ye Muxi said in a deep voice, "Sincerity is as good as gold and stone. Maybe God will open his eyes and let us find Qingyao."

The old lady nodded, "I hope, I also hope to find Qingyao as soon as possible. Since you know it well, I won't say more. I will go back first."

Shen Yunpei wanted to say something else, but the old matriarch gave her a sideways look, and she didn't dare to say more, so she helped the old matriarch to leave.

"Wan Qiu, Mr. Jun, looking for someone, how did you go?" Ye Muxi's brows showed a trace of worry.

Wan Qiu replied, "Young Master Jun has been looking for it for four days, and today he went up the mountain to look for it..."

Ye Muxi sighed.Can't find Qingyao, what should I do tomorrow?She couldn't make a decision, so she decided to visit Jun's house later in the evening.

……

Qingquan Mountain, a small thatched hut on the mountainside, is raining heavily.

"Young master, why are you here again? The little old man told you all about it yesterday, I really haven't seen any girls." Zhao Laosan bowed, "The little old man is a person who draws water for a living, really Didn't do anything bad!"

Jun Mochen nodded slightly, "Old man Zhao, I know you are not a villain. However, I have been searching for three days in a row, and I have also been to the homes of those who delivered food and firewood. I always feel that there must be something important missing in the process." Please tell me what happened that day again, old man.”

With that said, Jun Mochen stuffed a few pieces of silver into Zhao Laosan's hands.

Zhao Laosan picked up the silver and quickly bowed, "Thank you, my lord. If you want to listen, the little old man will tell you again..."

After talking about it again and again, Jun Mochen still didn't find any problems.Inadvertently glanced at the cart and bucket over there and said, he suddenly noticed something was wrong, "Old Man Zhao, your bucket is placed on the cart, and there is just two empty buckets, why is that? Why not fill it up? "

"Hey, the newly made wooden barrels haven't been delivered yet, so they're left empty. I used to have a full cart, but unfortunately I lost two... Oh yes, it was on the way back from delivering water to Ye's that day. The loss of two wooden barrels is much lighter, it seems that the old man is really old..." Zhao Laosan sighed to himself.

The light in Jun Mochen's eyes changed, and the two wooden barrels that fell out were the only things that had been overlooked, hurry up and have a look!
"Old man Zhao, please take me to the place where the barrel fell." Jun Mochen said.

Zhao Laosan was surprised, "My lord, that's halfway up the mountain. What do you want to see? A wooden barrel? It must have broken!"

"Trouble old man." Jun Mochen couldn't wait, feeling inexplicably nervous.

Zhao Laosan cupped his hands, "The young master gave the old man so much money, the old man should lead the way, please."
