Chapter 626 - 624 You’ve Been Wronged
Wang Yongzhu thought for a moment, then cautioned, "These next few days, just stay inside the inn, and don’t go out. Wang Yongan has now completely turned against us, even threatening me with the lives of our entire family, demanding that I become the County Magistrate’s concubine and hand over the dye workshop’s profits to him. I’ve been feeding him medicine to temporarily keep him from acting against us, but if you get caught alone by him, the poison will no longer pose a threat to him! So, remember not to go outside!"
Since this was a matter of great importance, everyone nodded busily, unanimously assuring that they would definitely not go out alone.
Old Granny Zhang also promised, "Girl, don’t worry, your mother will keep watch for you, no one will be allowed to go out!"
In the midst of their conversation, they arrived at the inn.
Wang Yonggui whispered, "I’ve inquired, this is the largest inn in Qi City. Although it’s a bit expensive, it’s safe and has a good reputation. As long as guests stay here, the inn guarantees their safety for each day they reside within."
Wang Yongzhu nodded her head, "Then that’s the best we can hope for."
Wang Yonggui took a token out of his bosom and showed it to the inn’s runner at the entrance, who then enthusiastically led their carriage into the backyard.
The courtyard Wang Yonggui had booked wasn’t large, with only three or four rooms, and in the tiny courtyard, there were two plum trees planted, whose faint fragrance greeted them as they entered.
The runner led them to their courtyard, briefed them on the basics of the inn, such as when hot water would be available, that they could dine at the front of the inn or request that meals be delivered to the courtyard, and that any other requests would be accommodated as far as possible.
