Chapter 401: Liu Wei and Rong Su Are Gone

Liu Wei was too lazy to pay attention to the disgusted Rong Su, lowered his head and smelled the fragrance of the flowers.

Rong Leng couldn't help but curl up his lips, walked side by side with Liu Wei, and continued to the stands in front.

Several people left far away, but they didn't know that the flower girl just stood there for a long time.

It wasn't until the figures of Rong Leng, Liu Wei and his party gradually disappeared into the crowd that the flower girl put her basket away and walked quickly into a nearby alley.

In the alley, a woman dressed in tattered beggar's clothes was leaning against the wall.

The woman was holding a piece of grass casually in her mouth, and an old, chipped porcelain bowl was placed at her feet.

Seeing someone coming in, the woman took one look, stood up, and asked, "How is it?"

The flower girl took off her headscarf and put the wintersweet basket aside. While changing her clothes, she said, "It's them, but there are a few more people."

The beggar woman frowned: "Who is extra?"

"Two little girls, and one...if I'm not mistaken, the facial features are somewhat similar to Captain Rong."

The beggar woman asked: "Can I still find her?"

The flower girl shook her head: "It's definitely not possible. You and I should not be publicized about our whereabouts. If Uncle Sixteen hadn't received some kind of disappearance case at the Yamen today, we wouldn't have known. Liu Wei really arrived in Dingzhou, but there were too many of them. Well, if we don’t spread out, we will definitely not be able to meet.”

The beggar woman picked up the broken bowl on the ground, spit out the grass in her mouth, and said, "I'll go!"

"Wait!" The flower seller grabbed the beggar woman, held up her face, took a closer look, and said, "It's almost time. Your eyes will turn golden again. Let's go tomorrow."

The beggar woman frowned: "There are many people at the lantern festival today, so it's easy to disperse. There won't be such a good opportunity tomorrow. Sister, I know you're worried, but it's okay to take an extra pill of this medicine once in a while..."

"No!" the flower girl scolded suddenly, with a serious tone: "Auntie said, you can only eat one pill a day, don't eat more, it will hurt your health!"

The beggar woman was silent.

The flower girl rubbed the beggar woman's hair and said, "You go back first and I'll try it. If I can get in touch with it, it will be good."

"Then be careful." The beggar woman said hurriedly.

Then he complained softly: "If we didn't put the ship's lights on, we would definitely be in time."

This medicine, for half an hour each time, can turn the beggar woman's eyes into the black color of a normal person.

But after half an hour, it was no longer possible.

Because this medicine has side effects, you can only take one pill a day. If you take too much, the poisonous gas will accumulate, which may affect your eyes.

My aunt's original words were... she was afraid that she would become blind.

The flower girl nodded and urged the beggar woman to leave. Then she changed into clothes that looked like a rough man's, put on a fake beard, and walked out of the crowd.

It's still so lively outside.

A rough man who was shorter than an average man got into the crowd, put his hands in his sleeves, hunched his shoulders, and walked slowly toward the innermost part of the square.

At this time, Liu Wei had already arrived under the platform in the square. He found it quite interesting to see the countless figures hurrying on both sides of the platform.

"Today, we invited famous actors from Baxiufang to dance! It is said that only wealthy masters usually order the dances." Some people around were talking excitedly.

"I heard that the second-class dancer from Baxiufang was invited this time. Her figure is extremely charming. If this is normal, even a rich gentleman would rarely take a look at her!"

"Of course, there are only three second-class dancers in the entire Guyong Mansion, and there is only one first-class dancer, Miss Feng Yuan. This second-class dancer is so regular!"

"Speaking of which, I met Miss Fengyuan last time. Miss Fengyuan and her maid came to our boss's store to buy things. I accompanied the boss on his shop tour that day, and we happened to meet him! The boss also gave Miss Fengyuan two Even Miss Feng Yuan refused to take the hairpin. If such a good girl were ordinary, she would want to take her back as my wife."

"Pull me down. With your appearance, even if Miss Feng Yuan doesn't have such extraordinary dancing skills, she still can't look down on you, right?"

The discussion between the two was lively.

Liu Wei was listening leisurely beside him. After hearing the end, Liu Wei became a little curious about what the so-called Miss Feng Yuan looked like.

As I thought to myself, the gong was already beating on the stage.

"Folks, the Daqing Dance Team is inviting girls from Baxiufang today. Does anyone want to see the girls dance?"

Even though there was no such thing as a host in ancient times, people had already filled the role of setting off the drama at large parties.

There was a lot of noise below, with men and women shouting: "I want to..."

The host laughed for a moment and then asked: "Which girl from Baxiufang do you want to see?"

There was another commotion below.

Many names were called one after another, but among them, the one called Miss Feng Yuan the most!

The host paused deliberately, and then smiled: "Miss Fengyuan, but Miss Fengyuan is not feeling well tonight, so we didn't invite her."

There was a moment of disappointment, and someone shouted one after another: "Miss Fengyuan, want Miss Fengyuan——"

In fact, we would not invite this heavyweight guest to the usual lantern festivals.

The so-called dancer costs hundreds of taels of silver per dance, and she has to dance for special dignitaries. How can anyone see her?

But the host decided to ask today, so I can't blame the people below for making a fuss.

The host was really embarrassed and said with a grimace: "You can't embarrass me alone."

They were still shouting below: "Miss Fengyuan, Miss Fengyuan..."

The host sighed, and finally rubbed his eyebrows: "Hey, forget it, since you all want to find Miss Fengyuan, then - we will ask Miss Fengyuan to bring us the first opening dance "Big Waves in the Sand"!"

Suddenly, it was quiet down below.

The huge square, which accommodated nearly a thousand people, actually fell silent at this moment.

Then, after a brief silence, there was a burst of discussion. Obviously, no one believed that Miss Fengyuan would really come.

And just when everyone was noisy and confused, someone in the crowd suddenly exclaimed: "Look at the backstage on the right."

Everyone who heard it turned their heads and looked to the backstage on the right.

Sure enough, in front of the stairs in the backstage, stood a pretty woman wrapped in a white veil, with a graceful figure and a willow-slender waist.

Someone recognized the woman's figure and took a breath: "Miss Fengyuan, it's really Miss Fengyuan, my god, it's really..."

This shout attracted more people's attention.

Then, everyone cheered like crazy, and then rushed toward the high platform.

Liu Wei, Rong Leng and others were relatively close to the high platform.

Xiao Li was short, and he was suddenly hit. He staggered, and a big hand on his back grabbed him and pulled him to his side.

Xiao Li stabilized his body and turned around to see that the person pulling him was Rong Leng.

Uncle Rong grabbed him with one hand and protected the two frightened little girls, the older girl and the younger girl, with the other hand.

When the four of them calmed down and turned around, they were shocked.

"Where's my dad?"

Liu Wei and Rong Su were both gone.
