The more he stayed at home, the more upset he became, so he asked the driver to drive to Siniang's tea room.

The maid led him to a familiar position with ease.

"Young Master Li, you're here." Siniang's voice came, and today she personally delivered the tea, "Yo, why didn't Mrs. come?" ”

"She's at home." Li Shaowen didn't want to answer, and said lightly.

"You quarreled with Madame, didn't you?" Siniang came over with a clear body, and knew what was going on by looking at her face, "Come, drink tea, although tea is not wine, it can relieve a thousand sorrows when drunk, but tea has the character of tea, and it is bitter and difficult to drink at first, and good tea will naturally be sweet after swallowing." ”

Siniang has something to say, Li Shaowen understands it at a glance, and she changes her ways to comfort herself.

Li Shaowen took this ginseng oolong, a unique aroma overflowed, and he drank it all like wine.

"Fortunately, I have a small teacup here, otherwise I would have been drinking mules and horses." Siniang said with a smile, and Li Shaowen smiled lightly.

"For a few new girls who sing songs here, there is a girl with a good voice and spirituality, if you want her to sing a song, you should enjoy it and relieve your boredom." Siniang asked.

"You are really a businessman, I know the reason why the shopkeeper Jinwu was hidden in Jiaojiao back then. If I were the shopkeeper of Ji, and there was a delicate person like you, I would also make a golden house to hide you. Li Shaowen exclaimed, "Go and call it." ”

A short time later, a girl came with a lute in her arms.

When Li Shaowen saw it, this girl was delicate, shy, and dressed plainly and not fancy. I don't know why, looking at her, I remembered Zhou Zhilan who I saw again in Liyuan Pavilion, at that time, Zhilan and Zhou Yuehua were arguing, joy and sorrow floated on the face, far more agile and energetic than her after marriage, and it was at that time that he fell in love with her who was different.

Li Shaowen wanted to be fascinated.

"Uh-huh." Siniang gently cleared her throat beside her. Her voice pulled Li Shaowen's thoughts back, "Young Master, do you still listen to the music?" ”

Li Shaowen smiled politely, and raised his hand weakly: "Girl, please sit down, just pick up your favorite tune and sing one." ”

"Shadow." Siniang said, "I heard Master Li's orders." ”

Yan Ying sat timidly on a stool in the corner, holding the pipa and singing "Flower Tune". Her singing voice is tactful, soft and beautiful, her fingers are gently twisted and slowly twisted and picked, and she is really a big bead and a small bead falling on the jade plate.

At the end of the song, Li Shaowen was a little fascinated by it.

"Your name is Yanying? Well sung. Reward! ”

Li Shaowen came out of the tea room, a little dizzy, the girl who had just played the pipa, her face was still swaying in front of Li Shaowen, she got into the car, the driver turned around and asked him where he was going, and then shook his head and threw away his thoughts.

He didn't want to go home, but when it got dark, he said, "Go back." ”

Along the way, he guessed what Zhilan would do, and he was a little scared to face her.

The car drove to the door of the Li Mansion, and the butler Fu greeted him, and said anxiously: "Young master, you came back just right, the young grandmother didn't come in today, and the rice sent in didn't move, you go and persuade her, it stands to reason that I shouldn't talk too much, as the saying goes, husband and wife quarrel at the head of the bed and at the end of the bed, and you will be fine." ”

Li Shaowen snorted, went to the room, and just knocked on the door, he heard Zhilan's voice: "I won't eat, take it!" ”

He unscrewed the door and made eye contact with Zhilan.

"What are you doing here?" She said coldly to him.

"Have you had enough? If you have an opinion about me, don't be angry with your subordinates. Li Shaowen sat on the couch.

"Why do you reproach me?" Zhilan snorted coldly, "Why don't you reflect on what you've done." ”

"That's right, your brother Zhou Muqing was sent to the police station by me, I admit this matter, I just have an intention on Wande, what do you want? Do you think you can stop it? When Li Shaowen heard Zhilan say this, he calmed down.

"You! Ridiculous, I'm going to show you my paintings. Saying that, Zhilan picked up the picture on the table without hesitation, and lit a foreign fire, which reflected her resolute face in the firelight, and her extremely cold words, "I'd rather burn it than share it with you." You are not worthy, Li Shaowen, you are not worthy at all. ”

Li Shaowen suddenly reached out to grab it.

It was too late, the painting had already burned to pieces, and she threw the fragments into the brazier that Yeoncui had prepared without pity. Looking at the tongue of fire happily licking the fragments, Li Shaowen was stunned for a while.

"Get out of here!" Zhilan said this, thinking that the relationship between husband and wife was half over. In fact, there was a wave of sadness in her heart. At this moment, she envied Jingru, at least she had a home, she had no family to rely on, the Zhou family was not her home, the Qi family didn't want her for a long time, and there was no way out when she thought about it, so she chose Li Shaowen, and she had no way out.

"Okay, don't regret it." Li Shaowen said ruthlessly, "You can burn the painting, you can not eat the rice, see who suffers in the end?" ”

Since getting married, there has been no peace in the family, and my mother is still lying in the room and can't get up. He is a man who is not good at handling household chores, and a backyard fire annoys him.

Hearing that he was told to "get out", he lifted his feet and walked out of the door without looking back.

"Prepare a bed for me in the study." He gambled and said to Steward Fu, "In the future, don't care if Grandma eats or not, she likes to eat or not, don't pay attention to her." ”

Steward Fu looked worried, but he didn't say much.

"However, if she is making trouble to go back to her parents' house and does not allow her to go back, Steward Fu, you can explain to Shuanghua, and let her report to me at any time if she has a new situation." Li Shaowen thought about it and added another sentence.

Steward Fu answered, and Li Shaowen felt a little relieved when he heard his answer.

Qi Mei slept in a daze until midnight, when she suddenly heard a loud noise in the courtyard and woke up in shock.

As soon as she left the room, Bi Chun hurriedly took her hand and said, "Not good! Something really happened, your second sister is gone.

While he was talking, several family members came to report, saying that they had found a woman's hair ornament under the south wall, and took it to the third lady to identify, and it was indeed the second lady's thing. Qi Mei remembered that she saw Tang Minghai's sneaky appearance at the root of the wall this afternoon, there must be something wrong there. She asked a few family members to lead the way, and within walking a few steps she reached the place where the hair ornament was found.

A wall separating the inner and outer worlds.

She squatted down, brushed aside the long grass hidden at the root of the wall, it didn't look like there was any flaw, it was just an ordinary wall, and the traces of cracks on the wall could be seen in the old age, and she pushed it at will, and she heard the sound of "whoosh" falling ash, and several family members hurriedly stepped forward to help push and replaced Qi Mei. Where the loose bricks could withstand the force, they immediately collapsed into a hole and led directly to the road outside.

Qi Mei knew in her heart that it was impossible for the third sister to do this kind of thing alone, and someone must help her. She thought of something, hunched over and slipped out of the hole.

Bi Chun hurriedly ordered: "Hurry up and follow the eldest lady." ”

Before anyone could pass, Qi Mei came back from the hole.

"Where is that?"

"On the street, as I expected." Qi Mei understood, gave Bichun a look, and whispered, "Mother, this matter can't be made quiet, let's wait for my father to come back and deal with it." ”

Bi Chun comprehended, and hurriedly said to the housekeeper and everyone: "It's nothing over there, it's okay, everyone disperse." Steward Qi, arrange for someone to repair the wall tomorrow. ”

"Mother, the second sister must have eloped with Tang Minghai." Qi Mei said firmly in the room.

"What? Elope? How do you know that, you can't talk nonsense. ”

"I just got out of that hole, and what I saw was the place where Tang Minghai was found in the afternoon, he must have planned it a long time ago. In the afternoon, Mu Qing exposed his identity, in order to avoid long nights and dreams, he took advantage of his father's absence tonight and took the second sister away. ”

Qi Mei analyzed it meticulously, and she couldn't help but believe it. If it was an elopement, it was completely correct for the daughter to deal with it this way.

"Then I'll send someone to ask your father to come back." After waiting for a while, I heard the roar of cars outside, and the sound of car engines in the quiet night was particularly harsh.

Sure enough, I heard Master Qi's hurried footsteps. Hearing that someone anxiously came to report that the second lady was missing, he suddenly woke up most of his alcohol, hurriedly said goodbye, got into the car and rushed home.

"What the hell is going on?"

"Dad, I suspect that the second sister eloped with Tang Minghai." Qi Mei didn't hurry and told Master Qi the truth about what happened before. He frowned at times, pondered at times, and finally heard her relay Mu Qing's words, and said angrily: "Tang Minghai, this bastard liar, I have been fighting geese for many years, but I didn't expect to be pecked by geese this time. ”

"Dad, the second sister is missing, should we report it to the police?" Qi Mei asked.

"No! After all, this is our family matter, and your grandmother doesn't know that when the police sergeant came to make the city stormy, where do you want your father's face to be placed? "Master Qi is resolutely opposed.

"But master, what if Tang Minghai takes her to another place by train?" Bi Chun said worriedly.

"It's up to you." Master Qi thought about it.

"Me?"

"Yes, you go and ask Zhou Muqing to help, with his relationship with Chief Zhang, as long as he talks to Chief Zhang in private, martial law at the city gate can find out Tang Minghai's whereabouts."

is worthy of Master Qi, people who have dealt with him say that he is very fine, Qi Mei still doesn't believe it, and when she hears his words, she can't help but believe it.

"Dad, as the saying goes, people should not be used lightly, not to mention that I haven't married Mu Qing yet, so it's not good to let him run before and after for our family's affairs at this time." Qi Mei said worriedly.

"What are you afraid of, it's when he is courteous to you, like your father and me......" Master Qi found that he had more to say, and he was busy closing the topic.

"Or ...... It's important to find someone, you try. Bichun spoke, and Qi Mei had to agree.

"Dad, don't forget to check the people around the second sister."

"You told me, I know it."

She immediately went to Zhou's house to find Mu Qing and told her what happened.

"I didn't expect Tang Rong to use such a method, I am in charge of this matter." Qi Ying reminded him of Zhilan, and he was afraid for a while that if he hadn't interfered back then, maybe Lan'er would have done the same stupid thing.

"Mu Qing ......" Qi Mei looked at him a little moved, and couldn't help hugging him and kissing him, Zhou Muqing was stunned again.

Master Qi specially went to Cailing Courtyard to comfort Yaochun, looking at Yaochun's red and swollen eyes from crying, her weak body, how could she still have the charm before, he was busy asking the housekeeper to ask a doctor to treat her.
