I don’t know where my father got the news about the Li family. I heard that they all retreated to the island, and there was no one in Hangzhou city.

When collecting silk in Huzhou, I also met many colleagues who were talking about it, saying that I wonder why the Li family suddenly closed all the transactions in Hangzhou.

In addition, there is another news that sounds like there is no direct relationship with the Li family. It is said that the governor of Zhejiang recently mobilized a thousand new troops to be stationed in the Dinghai garrisons in Ningbo Prefecture."

When Yu Ren heard this, he was shocked. Dinghai and Li Ying and his team were only a few dozen miles away from Daqu Island, the headquarters of Zhejiang Province. This area has been peaceful in recent years. The court suddenly transferred a thousand soldiers, obviously for Li Ying and the others.

"Did you hear that the Li family has taken action?" Yu Ren asked.

Xu Keming shook his head.

The four of them said while walking, and they arrived at their residence without realizing it. Xu Ke obviously didn't like Yu Ren very much, so he found an excuse and went back to his yard, leaving only Xu Qian to speak with Yu Ren.

Suddenly hearing the news that the court had increased its troops in Ningbo Prefecture, Yu Ren began to feel uneasy again. Although he believed that it would be difficult for the court army of this thousand people to do anything to Li Ying and the others. But this was a clear signal, indicating that the court had begun to attack the Li family.

Yu Ren accompanied Xu Qian and talked about it without thinking, and stayed on the island for another night. He had originally planned to go back the next day, but Yu Ren stopped leaving at this time because he had to wait for Xu Xinsu. He could not leave without worry before he heard the exact news about Li Ying.

Xu Xinsu didn't come back until the afternoon of the next day. She was also surprised to see Yu Ren actually on the island. She originally thought that Yu Ren was entrusted by Li Ying, but she didn't expect that it was not.

Yu Ren briefly told Master Xu Er that his father passed away recently and he was expelled from his fame. Then he defected to his uncle and his uncle were seriously ill and he hurriedly took over a mess.

It was the first time that Xu Hai and Xu Qian heard Yu Ren talk about his recent events in his family. When they heard that he was unfortunate one after another, they couldn't help but sigh.

"It's okay. As the saying goes: God will give a great responsibility to this person, he will first make his thoughts and his muscles and bones... Although his nephew has suffered misfortunes, his spirit has not been disappointed, and he will definitely achieve great success in the future." Xu Xinsu touched his beautiful beard and comforted him.

"The second master has said this. I have always been careful not to have great ambitions, but I have ten acres of thin fields and three thatched huts. I can live some peaceful days, but I don't want to pursue wealth and fame."

Xu Xinsu sighed lightly, "Isn't that the case? But, in the world, I can't help myself! Just like you are now. If you let you let go of the Shen family and live a peaceful life, can you really feel at ease?"

Yu Ren thought for a while and shook his head. "What the second master said is."

"So! Since you and I have entered it, we can only strive forward. We cannot think about turning back!"

Yu Ren seemed to have some insight and nodded repeatedly. Thinking of Li Ying, Yu Ren quickly asked about the recent situation of the Li family and the movements of the court.

"Nie Ying has long heard of the imperial court's increase in troops in Ningbo Prefecture. She also sent me a message saying that she was ready to attack the island. However, from the moment, the imperial court should not attack them for the time being. Because although the imperial court added troops to Ningbo Prefecture, they were all infantry and there were no ships.

In the letter, she also said that if Daqushan could not be defended, she planned to take people to retreat to Chenqian Island first. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and I believe the court can do nothing about her. However, she did not plan to openly fight with the officers and soldiers unless it was absolutely necessary."

Yu Ren was a little relieved.

That night, Xu Xinsu held a banquet again to invite Yu Ren. The next day, Yu Ren returned, and Xu Xinsu specially sent two Deli subordinates to him to help Yu Ren deal with the crisis in the Shen family in front of him. In addition, Xu Xinsu knew that Yu Ren was in a tight position recently, so she specially sent someone to give him 5,000 taels of silver. She said that she was temporarily lent to him.

Yu Ren is not polite. He needs too much money now. The five thousand taels just solved his urgent needs and allowed him to follow Xu Xinsu and the others to take a trip to the East.

Back in Songjiang, Yu Ren placed the two subordinates whom Xu Xinsu handed over to him in the weaving room and the mansion respectively, as deputys of the general managers. Although the original personnel had not changed, Yu Ren suddenly brought back two people and put them to the general manager. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that this was Yu Ren's way of preventing things. Those who were originally thinking about it began to restrain themselves a little.

A few days later, the five shopkeepers who ran away with the money a few days ago came to the Shen family to apologize. This time, it caused a considerable shock to the Shen family.

A few days later, five shopkeepers were killed by robbers on their way to exile. The news came, and the Shen family was completely quiet. This time, it was really quiet. After those who were not very honest, they saw Yu Ren's new boss's thunder tricks, they were so scared that they dared to have a slight indifference.

Yu Ren kept watching all this coldly. After he was sure that no one from the Shen family dared to have bad thoughts from the manager to the weaver. He knew that he could finally go to the East with confidence.

After the Xu family's boat loaded the cotton cloth in the warehouse, Yu Ren decided to set off the next day and go to Nansha Island to meet Xu Xinsu and the others.

On this day, Yu Ren got up early. He went to his uncle's room to look at it. Seeing that his uncle had woken up, Chunmei was washing his face. Yu Ren walked forward.

"Uncle, I'm going to go out for a long trip today, either one month or two or three months later. I've arranged all the family affairs, so don't worry."

Shen Minghang's eyes rolled a few times, and some sounds were made in his throat, but unfortunately no one could understand it.

"Don't worry! Chunmei will take good care of you after I leave." After saying that, Yu Ren sighed secretly. He didn't expect that his uncle, who was in his prime, would suddenly get such a disease. When he thought of the root of the matter, he thought of Shen Yan. I don't know where she is now, and whether she is galloping on the grassland with her Mongolian husband!

If Shen Yan knew about it, her father, who had always loved her the most, became what she is now because of her departure, I wonder what she would think?

Should I send someone to find him and ask Shen Yan to come back to see my uncle? Yu Ren thought about this for a long time, but finally decided not to send someone to find him.

After all, my uncle has become like this. Even if Cousin Yan comes back, his uncle's illness will not be cured, but instead he only increases his cousin's self-blame. Let her follow her Mongolian man and live their happy life on the grassland! Yu Ren thinks this way.

Seeing Chunmei wiped her uncle's face, Yu Ren personally fed Shen Minghang a bowl of millet porridge.

Chunmei stood aside and served her, saying that the master had eaten a lot today.

After Yu Ren fed the porridge, he returned the bowl to Chunmei and said to her: "Chunmei! I am going to go to Dongyang to do a business today, and it may take two or three months to come back. I will entrust all my uncle's affairs to you. Don't always let the master lie on the bed. Remember to ask two servants to help the master walk in the yard every day.

If you are tired of walking, take a break. Don’t be tired of the master, but you can increase the time for activities every day depending on the situation. The specific operation will be up to you to control.

I heard that if you persist in exercising like this, you can still recover slowly.

After I leave, if you have anything to do, you will go to the butler. If you are not able to find a butler, you will go to Cao An. I have already said hello to Cao An and asked him to give priority to your affairs.

The master has taken good care of him and recovered well. I will definitely give you a lot when I come back."

This was the first time Chunmei had to say such a close distance with the young master Yu Ren, and she felt a little nervous, her face was red, and she didn't dare to look up and keep looking at the young master. She had to lower her head, look at her nose, and look at her heart.

When Chunmei heard the last reward Yu Ren said, her heart beat. She looked up and glanced at Yu Ren secretly. "Take care of the master and the nephew is the position of a maid, and she dare not ask for rewards. The maid only hopes to be with her nephew for the rest of her life, serving you and the master."

After hearing this, Yu Ren glanced at Chunmei. There seemed to be something in the little girl's words! It seemed to be saying: I don't want you to give me any rewards, I just hope that you can give me myself to you and stay by your side for the rest of my life. That is my greatest happiness.

Yu Ren looked at Chunmei calmly, not knowing whether her guess was right. Could it be that this little girl was moved by her?
