Although Liu Yingyi is young, she is not a stunned young man who doesn't understand Fengyue, Mrs. Yuan's endless flirtation, in other words, any man will be a little unstoppable, not to mention that Mrs. Yuan is also a woman who is in her prime and quite charming.

But Liu Yingyi is not an ordinary man, and a contemptuous smile crossed the corner of his mouth: "Thank you for the invitation, the master has just passed away, the murderer is still at large, Yingyi doesn't know the taste of food, it's really difficult to have such a mood as his wife." ”

After listening to Shui Qingxiang, she just wanted to say four words, and she was beautiful!

On the one hand, she politely refused Mrs. Yuan's invitation, and on the other hand, it implied that she was in a good mood after the death of her master.

"Liu Gongzi is thinking too much, it's just a family banquet, but I haven't seen him for many years, and I just got together for a meal. Even if Yuan Gong is alive, he will hope that we can get together, if Liu Gongzi even has some scruples about this, then forget it. Mrs. Yuan also replied.

The ball was kicked back to Yoo Young-yi.

Liu Yingyi thought about it for a while, and finally agreed, "Okay, I'll stay at the house for dinner." ”

Although Shui Qingxiang understood that the reason why Liu Yingyi agreed was just to ask for more clues related to Yuan Gong's death from Mrs. Yuan.

However, she felt a little unhappy in her heart, and she couldn't tell why, but when she saw Mrs. Yuan throwing flattering eyes at Liu Yingyi from time to time, she felt like she had goosebumps.

In the evening, in the annex of Yuan's mansion.

Unlike the white mourning flags hung up and down the Yuan Mansion, there was not much mournful atmosphere in Mrs. Yuan's own small courtyard, a bright and elegant oil lamp was placed on the table, and the candles inside were cheering and jumping.

Madame Yuan sent someone to set up a round table in the flower courtyard, which was full of delicate dishes, and a pot of sake was warmed in hot water.

And Mrs. Yuan herself, wearing a light purple dress, with delicate makeup painted on her face, looks carefully dressed, if it weren't for a small white flower on the top of her head, no one would have seen that this was a widow who had just lost her husband.

Mrs. Yuan smiled, "I greeted Liu Lang today, but unfortunately the time was not lucky, I only prepared these vegetarian dishes roughly, and I hope Liu Lang will not dislike it." ”

Shui Qingxiang glanced at the dishes on the table, shiitake mushroom tofu, stir-fried bamboo shoots, steamed yam, cold fungus, stir-fried cabbage, lotus root and wolfberry soup......

It's really a table of vegetarian dishes, it seems that this Mrs. Yuan is really scheming, in order not to let Liu Yingyi leave a handle, all the dishes on this table are vegetarian dishes.

Even if others chew their tongues, they can't leave any handle.

However, compared with the dishes on this table, Mrs. Yuan is obviously more tempting than this table.

Look at the age of this Mrs. Yuan, but in her early twenties, slender posture, delicate facial features, she still feels average during the day, and after painting heavy makeup at night, under the illumination of the light, she is even more charming, and she is really a beautiful young woman.

Especially the sentence "Liu Lang", Shui Qingxiang almost didn't shiver when he heard it.

During the day, he still has a "Liu Gongzi", why did he become "Liu Lang" at night, did this master work in Yichun Courtyard before?

Liu Yingyi sat down quietly, "Thank you for your hospitality." The last time I came to Yuan's Mansion was five years ago, but I didn't expect that after a few years, there would be an additional capable master and wife in the family. I don't know how my wife met my master? ”

"Liu Lang, are you fooling me?" Mrs. Yuan's scarlet lips hooked slightly.

"My wife thinks too much, I just feel emotional for a while, and I am also a little curious about my wife."

"Oh, it turns out that Liu Lang is interested in me, so the slave family naturally wants to know everything, and say everything. I met Yuan Gong five years ago, when I first arrived in Yancheng, there was a seriously ill father at home, but my father was miserable, and he didn't wait for Yancheng to find a doctor, and he just died at the gate of the city. ”

"I am an orphan girl, helpless, and have no silver on my body, so I can only sell myself to bury my father. Unexpectedly, the sky lived up to the pitiful people, and when I met Yuan Gong who was passing by, Yuan Gong was kind and charitable, and when he saw that I was pitiful, he gave me five taels of silver to bury my father. ”

"I accepted five taels of silver from others for no reason, so I naturally want to thank Gong Engong well, but after Yuan Gong gave the silver, he walked away, and I still found the Yuan Mansion with great difficulty. I originally wanted to be a servant girl in the Yuan family, but unfortunately Yuan Gong didn't want to reciprocate, I had to kneel at the door of Yuan's mansion, three days later, I fainted in Yuan's mansion, and Yuan Gong led me into the door. ”

"Maybe it's because I have a relationship with Yuan Gong, otherwise there are so many people coming and going on the road, but Yuan Gong is helping me to relieve the siege. After I entered Yuan's mansion, I found that Yuan Gong was also an interesting person, and Yuan Gong also thought that I was his bosom friend, so he married me as his wife. ”

Hearing this, Shui Qingxiang couldn't help but complain in her heart, this is obviously a green tea BIAO who pretends to be a white lotus, it should be said that Mrs. Yuan's methods are still very clever.

"After the master married you, has he been living in the Yuan Mansion?" Liu Yingyi also asked this question very trickily, on the surface it meant this, but in fact, secretly what he wanted to ask was, 'My master has been living with you?' ’。

"Poof." Mrs. Yuan chuckled, "Since Gong Yuan has married me and doesn't live with me, where else will he live?" ”

"It's just...... He was not in good health, and sometimes moved to a small courtyard in the suburbs for a while. ”

Ahem, this Yuan Gong is really old-hearted.

"A few days before the master died, did he live in Yuan's Mansion or in the suburbs?" The focus of Yoo Young-yi's interrogation has always been on Yuan Youcheng.

Mrs. Yuan found that the handsome apprentice of the deceased husband had always focused on his master, and the charm technique he had just desperately used was ineffective on him, and her face couldn't help but darken.

"Naturally, it was in Yuan's mansion, before the accident, Yuan Gong's health had been bad, he lived in the mansion to recuperate, and told no one to disturb him, even I went to see him twice, and he sent him back. Later, rumors of haunting came out of the house, and I didn't go to see him. ”

"Haunted?" Liu Yingyi looked at Mrs. Yuan with interest.

"Oh, I'm going to die, didn't the people of the Yuan family tell you? It's all my fault for being too talkative, and I'm telling the truth all at once. Liu Lang, you hurt me, and I have to punish myself with three cups. In an instant, Mrs. Yuan seemed to be a playful spirit, and poured wine into Liu Yingyi's wine glass.

Shui Qingxiang looked at all this coldly, and felt that this Mrs. Yuan was like a barmaid in a modern nightclub in her previous life, she said that she was an orphan girl before, and she really did this before.

Well, it's not good to think about others like this behind your back, but Mrs. Yuan gives people an intuitive feeling like this.

A family banquet actually had a bit of an ambiguous atmosphere, Liu Yingyi didn't care about it, he then asked: "Before the master passed away, who was responsible for his diet?" ”

"I rarely ask about this, it is usually taken care of by the subordinates of the Yuan Mansion, and I care more about my flower yard than about the kitchen."

Liu Yingyi understood that this master was only in name, but in fact, there was no substantive power in the Yuan Mansion at all.

Seeing that Mrs. Yuan didn't ask anything, Liu Yingyi could only take Shui Qingxiang and get up to say goodbye.

"Liu Lang is leaving, the dishes on this table haven't been touched yet." Mrs. Yuan said with some regret.

"Thank you for your kindness, I have no appetite."

Shui Qingxiang and Liu Yingyi were walking on the way back, and the two of them were about to discuss the case, when suddenly Shui Qingxiang noticed that someone seemed to be following them behind them......
