Chapter 354: Rumors

"You're like this now, am I angry?" While the two were talking and laughing, Shang Muli kept glancing at the guards, and while they were walking away, he took Xiao Duo'er's hand and stuffed a note.

Guo Duo was surprised, but he didn't say anything. Shang Muli pretended that nothing had happened, "By the way, Sister Ling'er came to see me two days ago, you said it was a coincidence." ”

She ...... How did she know you were here?"

"She said that she was going to marry Brother Si Jue, just let me know. After speaking, she laughed mockingly, Guo Duo heard her say this, and then remembered that she seemed to have heard someone say this in the past few days, but she felt that it was false, so she didn't care.

Holding her cold hand, Guo Duo hurriedly comforted: "She just said that, and it may not be true." ”

Shang Muli smiled and nodded, "Well, I understand, Xiao Duo'er has to help me ask when she goes out." She patted the back of Guo Duo's hand holding the note, meaning to let her go out and do it well. Out of prison, Guo Duo found a place where no one was, and couldn't wait to open the note, stained with sweat, and the words on it were spent, but they could still be recognized. It said that Guo Duo should inform the Xu family and Si Yue to investigate the Ling family, and she immediately tore up the note after reading it.

Could it be that the Ling family is making trouble all this? Guo Duo frowned and couldn't figure it out, since Ah Li said so, there must be a clue. The old man of the Xu family has not been in good health recently, and Xu Qingliu has not had a chance to come out to see Shang Muli, but he just asked someone not to embarrass her in prison.

Then inform the Xu family first, Guo Duo was a little excited, she must have told Xu Qingliu about this, the last time they said goodbye, they hadn't seen each other for half a month.

At the door of Xu's Mansion, Guo Duo checked his clothes back and forth several times to confirm that he was dressed properly, but he stopped after just two steps, and looked down at his clothes without confidence. She lingered at the door for a long time, and the subordinates of the Xu Mansion couldn't help but ask: "This young lady, are you our guest, I saw you standing outside for a long time." ”

She was stunned for a moment, hehe smiled, she didn't expect her to stand outside for a long time, and she was suddenly a little embarrassed when they said this.

"I'm a friend of your eldest son, I have something to do with him, is he in the house today?" Guo Duo said with a smile.

"Oh, then, I'll go and tell you. The family ran into the house, Guo Duo was still outside to play with his clothes and hair, while looking nervously inside, waiting for a while, the family ran out just now, and said politely: "Go in, our son-in-law is inside." ”

"Thank you. Guo Duo went in excitedly, he had the idea of running directly, but it didn't seem to be a lady to run over like this, Qingliu definitely didn't like such a girl, he was a scholar.

Just thinking about it, she had already entered the hall, Xu Qingliu waited for a long time, and turned around when she heard footsteps, "It turned out to be Miss Guo, it's really a disappointment." ”

Her eyes were always flickering from side to side, and her hands were rubbing around unconsciously, not knowing where to put them. swallowed his saliva, looking like he wanted to say it but didn't dare to say it, he was so polite that he seemed to be separated by a distance between them that he couldn't cross.

"Sit. He motioned for her to sit on the chair behind him, and as soon as he took a seat, he thought of the purpose of coming today, Guo Duo put the love of his children in his stomach, and asked seriously: "Qingliu, do you know about Xiaoli being arrested by the government?" They are also familiar, Guo Duo doesn't want to call him Xu Gongzi or his full name, so it seems more cordial to shout like this. Xu Qingliu didn't feel that there was anything wrong with calling him like this, he accepted it happily, frowned and nodded, of course he knew about Shang Muli.

She sighed, feeling unfair for Shang Muli, "I went to visit her yesterday, and she stuffed a note in my hand. ”

"What's written on it?" he asked at once, his face very anxious, he felt that he had lost his temper, and quickly closed his face again. There was still eagerness in her eyes, this must be what she wanted to say, but there were many people in the prison, and some things were not good to say.

"Ah Li asked you and Boss Si to check on the Ling family. She said seriously, for fear that she had conveyed the wrong message.

The Ling family? Xu Qingliu frowned, he remembered that Shang Mu Sijue also asked him to help investigate, could it be that these things were really the Ling family's ghosts, but if this was really the case, what was their purpose? By the way, marriage, he said that he wanted to complete the marriage with Ling Ling'er as soon as possible. His eyes sank, Si Jue's fiancΓ©e had been in the name for too long, and Miss Ling couldn't wait anymore, but if this matter was really done by them, Si Jue would definitely be angry, and it was not a good thing to be in a hurry.

"Don't worry, I'll help her. Xu Qingliu smiled quickly, he would do whatever Xiaoli asked him to do, "Where is she now, my father is sick, and I can't spare time." ”

Guo Duo shook his head, "It's okay, it's okay, except for boredom, everything is fine." "Her affairs have been taken care of by Shang Mu Sijue, and she will not suffer at all there. But she is an idle person, she has been locked in for so long, and she can't see the sun and moon, normal people can't stand it.

"That's good. Knowing that she was fine, Xu Qingliu was relieved.

Guo Duo glanced at him a few times, he was wandering and didn't know what he was thinking, and that's why she dared to look directly at his face, as handsome as before, but a little pale, maybe it was because she had been taking care of her father for too long recently.

Obviously, he had already told him what Shang Muli was going to convey, but Guo Duo didn't want to leave at all, the first time he came to sit in the Xu Mansion, to be honest, she ate a lot, her family is not poor, but the Guo family's house is not as good as the Xu Mansion, too, the Xu family has been a writer for generations, they just sell noodles, how can they be compared. Xu Qingliu also noticed that she had no intention of leaving, so he proposed to take her to visit the Xu Mansion, and Guo Duo agreed.

At first, she thought that Xu Qingliu would take her to visit in person, but Master Xu needed someone around him, so he left quickly and asked the housekeeper to take good care of her, and later Guo Duo also enjoyed the scenery of the Xu family, so he left hastily and went to the Si family.

Boss Si has been very idle recently, and he had long expected that Shang Muli would take action, but it was a few days earlier than she expected. Guo Duo brought Shang Muli's words to her, and she also responded, and her subordinates also began to investigate, after all, it was her own person, and she didn't help anyone.

Everything that should be said was said, Guo Duo left with peace of mind, and Liu Duchao followed when he saw her, "Miss Guo, why are you here?"

A person suddenly appeared behind her, she was startled, quickly calmed down, and said, "Ah Li asked me to tell Boss Si to check the Ling family." ”

"Shang Muli?" Liu Duchao swallowed his saliva, he was the first person she pinned her hopes on, now it has been a few days, and she didn't send her a message or anything, it is estimated that she has cursed him more than a hundred times behind her back, and nothing useful has been found, and Liu Duchao does not dare to visit her directly in the prison. But the more he was like this, the more bottomless Shang Muli became, and the more angry he became.

As long as he thought that the two major families of the Shang Mu family and the Xu family joined forces to help Shang Muli behind his back, Liu Duchao was not so guilty. The two of them investigated, and he didn't need to investigate, they were always more powerful than him. After checking for so long, they didn't find out, and now Shang Muli asked them to check the Ling family, naturally there was something wrong with the Ling family, otherwise how could it take so long to find out why.

The government investigation team probably didn't dare to investigate if they wanted to, even if they knew the ins and outs, they didn't have the courage to go against the Ling family, but the Shang Mu family was not easy to mess with, in the face of such a situation, the government could only take one step at a time, turn a blind eye, there was no other way, neither side dared to offend, but far water could not quench the thirst, Master Ling was a member of the government, and they had to take care of it.

"The relationship between the Ling family and Shang Muli has always been very deep, so it should be investigated. He nodded, not saying much.

Guo Duo thought about it and leaned closer to him and asked in a low voice, "By the way, what do you think the Ling family is doing?"

He shook his shoulders, "I'm not from the Ling family, how do I know?" Liu Duchao probably guessed a little in his heart, but he couldn't tell her, because Guo Duo didn't have a heart, and it wouldn't be good if he said it or was used.
