In addition to the butler, Li Yuanwai has many confidantes under his command, and soon he called his confidants, and let him leave after explaining a thing or two.
Although Li Yuanwai still felt that it was a monster, and his housekeeper could not have betrayed him, but now that he thought about it carefully, he also felt that what Qi Wang said made sense. He was caught in a tangle, his face turned blue and white, ugly and scary.
I didn't think about it before, but after being led by Qi Wang, I followed his words and thought about it, and I could think of many things that were wrong.
The suspect steals the axe, that's the case. If you have doubts in your heart, you will feel that it is inappropriate no matter how you look at it. When you think about all the details, the doubts will become more and more.
Could it be that the housekeeper really messed up this matter? But he has also been an old man in the Li family for so many years, so what good will doing these things do him
The husband and wife on the opposite side were caught in entanglement, but Qi Wang was not affected at all.
Qi Huang was sitting on the chair at the lower seat of Li Yuanwai, his posture was very leisurely, and the white porcelain cup in his hand was obviously just for hospitality, but he forcibly set off a sense of nobility and elegance .
Mrs. Li's eyes fell on Qi Wang's body, she looked at him calmly, and began to evaluate inwardly.
Obviously the other party is just a young man, from appearance, he should not be more than twenty years old, but for some reason, staring at him for a long time, people can't help feeling awe.
Although the other party looked young and tender, it made others dare not think of bullying him.
Mrs. Li was born beautiful. She was a well-known beauty when she was young. After she got old, her appearance did not decline at all. Mrs. Li always thought that her appearance was already very outstanding. There are few beauties like her in the world. She had always been very proud of her beauty in the past.
However, after seeing Qi Wang, she just realized that she was the one who watched the sky from the bottom of a well in the past, with too little knowledge, she felt that there was no one more beautiful than her in this world.
Qi Wang's appearance is much better than hers. Although he is a man, Mrs. Li feels that he deserves the title of peerless beauty.
After seeing a beauty who is even more beautiful than her own, she will be more or less shocked in her heart. This is the case for Mrs. Li. She sighed secretly, thinking that if she was younger, she might not be able to say goodbye to him, but Now that she has passed the age of forty, she is much less competitive. Although there is a little jealousy in her heart, she doesn't have many other emotions.
Mrs. Li silently turned her eyes away and didn't look any further.
And Qi Wang has always known that Mrs. Li is secretly looking at him, but Qi Wang has encountered her searching eyes too much, Madam Li did not use any malice, and Qi Wang did not take her search to heart. superior.
On the contrary, Li Yuan felt a sense of crisis in his heart. He glanced at his wife, and then at the overly handsome young man opposite him. After thinking for a while, he said, "Ma'am, Fang Fei just drank the tonic. Tang, I'm a little worried about her, why don't you go and accompany her, so as to prevent her from thinking wildly."
After finishing speaking, Li Yuanwai said to Qi Wang apologetically: "Mr. Qi, I'm sorry, my little girl is timid. Recently, because of family affairs, I have been worrying too much. I asked my wife to go and accompany her."
What Li Yuanwai said was reasonable, Qi Wang naturally didn't care, he nodded to show that he understood.
The two have been married for more than 20 years. Madam Li naturally knows Li Yuanwai very well. She didn't say much after hearing this. Madam Li knew that Li Yuanwai had some estrangement in her heart, so she nodded. After agreeing, he got up and was about to get up and leave.
Just when Mrs. Li got up and was about to leave, Qi Huang flipped his wrist, and a delicate small porcelain bottle appeared in his hand. With a wave of his hand, the porcelain bottle flew towards Mrs. Li.
"Mrs. Li, if Miss is already unconscious at this time, you can use this to wake her up."
After hearing Qi Wang's words, Mrs. Li was slightly taken aback: "How could my daughter be so sleepy?"
It's just morning, even if I didn't sleep well last night, I won't go to bed at this point.
Qi Wang smiled slightly, and said: "Be prepared, there is no harm in keeping it."
Mrs. Li hesitated for a moment, and finally chose the porcelain bottle given by Qi Huang and held it in her hand.
The bottle Qi Wang gave looked like it was made of white porcelain, but it was warm in the hand, and the delicate touch was a little different from ordinary white porcelain bottles.
Mrs. Li was born into a wealthy family. After marrying Li Yuanwai, she was able to eat and wear very well. As soon as she got the bottle, she knew it was worth a lot. This bottle was not ordinary. Qi Huang gave this It seems too expensive.
Seeing that Mrs. Li didn't seem to want to take it, Qi Wang smiled slightly and said: "Mrs. Li, this is just a small gadget. Madam just take it."
After hearing this, Mrs. Li subconsciously looked towards Li Yuanwai.
Mrs. Li nodded towards her, and Mrs. Li just left in a hurry with the white porcelain bottle.
Just after Mrs. Li left, Li Yuanwai also thought about asking Qi Huang some things.
Just now Qi Wang gave a valuable porcelain bottle as soon as he made a move, and judging by his attire, it doesn't look like he has no money, so he didn't come to Li's mansion for the one thousand taels of silver.
Since it is not seeking money, what is his purpose? Although Li Yuanwai's family is rich, he also knows that he is only a little famous in Mingguang Town, and not many people can recognize him when he goes out. How can a person like Qi Wang condescend to enter his Fuchu
Li Yuanwai had various thoughts in his mind, and after he pondered for a moment, he asked: "Mr. Qi, from the way you speak and behave, the old man should be born in a wealthy family. I would like to ask, why do you do this kind of exorcism?" thing?"
In fact, although many rich and powerful families will invite masters and priests to come back to collect monsters and watch Fengshui, and on the surface they seem to respect these monster hunters, but in fact these monster hunters are not considered high status.
In the eyes of the powerful and powerful, even if these monster catchers are capable, they are not elegant existences after all, not to mention that there are all kinds of cheaters in the world, which make the monster catchers tired. The reputation of this wave of people.
Basically, sons from rich families will not do this kind of monster hunting. They will feel that they have an identity. If it gets out, the whole family will be lost.
That's why Li Yuanwai was curious in his heart, wanting to know why Qi Wang would do this kind of job of catching monsters.
In fact, if he faced other monks and Taoists who came to catch monsters in his family, Li Yuanwai would not ask such words. There is still respect.
But because Qi Wang doesn't look very old, and he looks easy to talk, that's why he asked this question.
Qi Wang was not angry at all, and slowly said: "There is no distinction between high and low occupations, and I will do it naturally if I want to do it."
After hearing what Qi Wang said, Li Yuanwai had a slightly embarrassed expression on his face.
But he quickly changed the subject and talked about other things.
Li Yuanwai has been in business for so many years, if he really wants to hug someone, he won't let the other person notice when he starts talking.
The two chatted happily, and Li Yuanwai gradually relaxed.
As the conversation continued, he discovered that although Qi Wang was young, his knowledge and style of conversation were far beyond what ordinary people could compare to. No matter what Li Yuanwai said, Qi Wang could catch up, and what he said was clear and logical. opinion.
In the end, Li Yuanwai even asked Qi Wang some questions that had been bothering him. From the other party's answers, Li Yuanwai seemed to understand a lot of things.
But in just half an hour, Li Yuanwai had already introduced Qi Huang as his confidant.
However, when the butler heard from the servants that Li Yuanwai had a good conversation with the young man who came last night, a slight mocking look appeared on his face.
It's just a yellow-haired boy with no hair on his head. Li Yuanwai was really confused to be able to talk to him in the same place.
He shook his head, didn't take this matter to heart, and turned to do his own thing.
But when Mrs. Li went to Li Fangfei's house, she heard from the servant girl who served Li Fangfei that after she came back from the main house, she fell asleep and slept soundly.
After hearing the maid's words, Mrs. Li somehow remembered what Qi Wang said just now. It should be just a coincidence, but she always felt a little uneasy.
"Forget it, I'll go in and have a look."
Mrs. Li was about to go in, but the servant girl subconsciously opened her hand to stop Mrs. Li.
"Ma'am, the young lady has ordered us to keep an eye on her when she is sleeping. No one is allowed to let her in. If you go in..."
However, before the maid finished speaking, Mrs. Li became angry. She raised her eyebrows and scolded: "Ping'er, you have the guts to stop me? I am Miss's mother." , others can’t go in, can’t I go in?”
The little maid named Ping'er was frightened by Mrs. Li's appearance, she hurriedly knelt down, and said tremblingly: "I dare not, Madam, please forgive me."
Mrs. Li glared at her fiercely, but she was too lazy to bother with a servant girl. She signaled her personal servant girl to pull Ping'er away, and walked into the room by herself.
Ping'er, who was taken away, complained endlessly, but felt wronged in her heart. The young lady specifically explained that no one was allowed to go in and disturb her when she was sleeping. Obviously she followed the young lady's order, but she offended the madam... In the future, she can still Would you like to have one
After Mrs. Li opened the door and went in, thinking that her daughter was still sleeping soundly, she couldn't help but lighten her footsteps. Because she was afraid of disturbing her daughter, Mrs. Li left the maid in the outer room and walked towards the inner room softly. went in.
Li Fangfei lay on the bed with her eyes closed and fell into a deep sleep. She was wearing thick clothes and was even covered with a thick quilt. It was already spring and the temperature had risen a lot. Too much, don't you want to cover your illness
Seeing her daughter like this, Mrs. Li felt a strange feeling in her heart. She frowned involuntarily, walked quietly to the bedside, and lifted the quilt covering Li Fangfei's body.
She touched the brocade quilt and found that the quilt was a thick quilt that was only covered in winter. Perhaps it was because she had been bored for a long time, and a layer of sweat had already formed on Li Fangfei's head. Looking at her body again, the clothes It's three layers of clothing inside and outside, and it looks like it's more worn than in winter.
If you put on a thick quilt because you are afraid of the cold, what are you doing wearing so many clothes
Mrs. Li felt a bad feeling in her heart, she gritted her teeth and shouted softly.
"Fair, Mayfair..."
It's just that Li Fangfei was in a deep sleep. After Mrs. Li yelled a few times, she still didn't wake up. Seeing her like this, Mrs. Li's heart sank slowly. She looked at the many clothes her daughter was wearing. Gritting her teeth, she stretched out her hand to untie her clothes.
Mrs. Li's outstretched hands were trembling, but she still firmly took off Li Fangfei's clothes layer by layer.
As the clothes were taken off, Li Fangfei's beautiful figure was also exposed. When the last layer was untied, Mrs. Li still did not stop and continued to untie the rope that tied the clothes.
Just taking off these clothes, Mrs. Li's body was covered with sweat. She took a deep breath, and with trembling hands, she untied her daughter's red bellyband.
The covered skin was exposed, and when she saw the bruises on the snow-white skin, Mrs. Li's eyes darkened and she almost fainted.
these are…
Mrs. Li's hand fell on her daughter's body. Thinking of what might happen to her daughter, she was heartbroken. With the last hope, Mrs. Li lifted the clothes off her daughter's right arm. When she saw the red guard When she saw Gong Sha, she just breathed a sigh of relief, but found that the color of Shou Gong Sha was not right.
Mrs. Li's complexion changed drastically, and her eyes immediately receded. She stretched out her hand tremblingly, and placed her jade-white fingers on the Shougong sand. She rubbed off the red Shougong sand with a light layer.
That wasn't Shougong sand at all, it was clearly dotted with cinnabar.
Madam Li burst into tears, if she wasn't afraid that the maids outside would hear her, she would have burst into tears by now.
How could this be
