Chapter 168: Lurking in the Depths
Duanmu Jun obviously got the news, and at this time, his face swept away the haze of the past few days, and replaced it with a smile.
The father and daughter talked for a while, but Duanmu Qing still asked Han Lingyan to accompany him and went to the Dancing Ink Pavilion by himself.
This time Duanmubi was not here, only Duanmusu seemed to be doing something sitting at the table.
I was not surprised to see my sister coming: "You came just in time, come and help me." ”
Duanmu Qing looked at the fabrics on the table, and couldn't help but be curious: "The body is just better, what do you do with this god?" ”
A few days ago, due to the change of seasons, Duanmusu was sick, and he looked much better at this time.
"Early in the morning, when I heard that the second brother had won a great victory, I felt a lot more happy.
Some time ago, I asked for some peace charms in Jingning Temple, and I just made a few purses to store them in the past few days.
When the second brother comes, he can give it to him. ”
Duanmu Qing smiled and nodded, and then sat with her to help.
"Go down, all of you! I'll talk to Miss Four. ”
smiled and commanded, there was no difference on his face, some were happy at the good news this morning.
Cai Wei and Lu Xi glanced at each other and took all the maids in the house down.
Reaching out and picking up a green string, Duanmu Qing handed it to his sister, but the look on his face was a lot colder: "How is it?" What do you see? ”
Duanmusu also continued to work on his hands: "It's not strange to say it's strange, but it's not strange, but it's also weird in some places." ”
"Oh? Tell me about it. ”
After thinking about it, Duanmu Su spoke: "She is silent on weekdays, and she has never been familiar with anyone.
But when I looked closely, I found that she seemed to be out of the house a lot. ”
"At night?"
Glancing up at her sister in surprise, Duanmusu nodded: "Night." ”
Duanmu Qing had known about this for a long time, so he didn't have any surprised looks.
"Moreover, Aunt Liu seems to have a good relationship with the people in the house, I didn't find it before, but after you said it, let people pay attention to it and find out."
His heart sank suddenly, and Duanmu Qing's eyes showed coldness: "What about Master Xie?" ”
Duanmusu was surprised again: "How do you know?" I heard that Aunt Liu and Master Xie are still in the same village, so the relationship with Master Xie's insiders is also very close on weekdays. ”
Duanmu Qing did not explain this, and there was no clue on his face.
Still doing the work at hand slowly, he then asked: "Who do they have a good relationship with the mother and daughter, and what is the attitude of those people towards them, do you have a record?" ”
Glancing at his sister, Duanmu Su smiled and said, "Fortunately, Mo lost and reminded me, otherwise you would definitely think that I was unqualified this time." ”
The two sisters were busy with these female celebrities in the house, and if they were not careful, time passed.
When he came out of the ink garden, Duanmu Qing suddenly thought of something: "Dad, I see that the flowers and plants in your yard are really beautiful, why don't you let Master Xie go to the Han Mansion to live for two days, so that I can teach the florists there." ”
"What's so difficult about this," Duanmu Jun shook his head with a smile, his eyes were full of love, and he instructed the people behind him, "Tell Master Xie and let him go to the Han Mansion tomorrow morning." ”
For his father's side, Duanmu Qing was also polite, and he smiled and passed it.
There was a harmonious atmosphere here, but the other side of the Yongding Marquis Mansion was anxious when he heard the news.
"What to do? What to do? Did the eldest lady find something? ”
A middle-aged man in a green cloth shirt kept pacing, and his face was palpably anxious.
"What's the panic, she just asked you to help plant some flowers and plants, don't expose yourself."
The one who spoke was Duanmu Bi, who was only willing on weekdays.
It's just that at this time, where does she still have the timid appearance of her usual days.
Although it was still the same clothes, the expression on his face was unprecedented arrogance.
"Yes...... But in case...... In case the eldest lady finds out......" the man said and paused again.
"The eldest lady's methods, everyone in the house knows."
This person is naturally Master Xie, who is in charge of the flowers and plants in the garden after Duanmu is completed.
"And what are you going to do?"
It was a woman who suddenly turned in when she spoke, and it was Duanmubi's biological mother, Aunt Liu.
"I ...... I ......"
For some reason, this seven-foot man seemed to suddenly become very humble in front of these two weak women.
I didn't dare to speak.
"I thought, why don't you hurry up and run while there's still time!"
Duanmu Bi and Aunt Liu didn't speak, just quietly looked at the man below.
In this way, it seems that suddenly, this mother and daughter exude an indescribable momentum.
Suppressed by such a momentum, Master Xie stiffened his head: "I'm also worried that if I accidentally leak it, I will miss the big thing of Miss and Auntie." ”
"You mean, you're going to get rid of us and leave alone?"
Duanmu Bi said such a sentence with a smile, but there was a hint of coldness between the words.
The coldness is impossible to ignore.
When Master Xie heard this, his still tall body shook suddenly: "Miss......"
"Then you go!"
Throwing out such a sentence lightly, Duanmu Bi's face suddenly became frosty, and he went to the inner room by himself as he spoke.
"Miss, miss."
Who knew that when Master Xie heard this, he suddenly knelt down: "I hope that Miss will reward me with some gifts for the sake of my dedication over the years!" ”
After a pause, Duanmubi pulled out a cold smile on his lips, and then snorted coldly, and was about to ignore it, but was stopped by Aunt Liu.
"Give him some!"
Looking at her daughter's puzzled gaze, Aunt Liu sighed softly, "It's also my fellow village." ”
"Mother!"
"Give it!"
It seemed that he couldn't resist his mother after all, Duanmu Bi stomped his feet and took out a small bottle from his arms.
Without even looking at it, he threw it behind him.
But Master Xie took it as if he had seen the dawn, and immediately kowtowed.
It wasn't until he had already left that Duanmu Bi frowned and said, "Mother, things are very expensive, he is already like this now, why ......"
Aunt Liu stretched out her hand to interrupt what she was about to say: "I have my own measure. ”
Five miles away from the center of Tianjing City, there is a place called Maotou Village.
The villagers here have been farming for generations, but because of the geographical location, more and more young people are now going to Tianjing City to make a living.
It's better than farming at home.
Master Xie is the one who mixes better among the people who go out in this village.
At this time, in the village, three large tiled houses have been built, and the yards have been repaired in front and back.
I heard that there is a lot of savings in the bank.
Now his two sons have also bought a house in Tianjing City, and he and Neiko have returned to this Maotou Village.
At this time, he had already returned for the second day, and looking at the place where he lived as a child, he also felt some satisfaction in his heart.
After wandering around the field, when I got home, it was the hour when the lights were on.
When I walked home, I suddenly found that the atmosphere was not right.
Originally, when he went out, he ordered his wife to light the fire and cook, but at this time, there was no trace of fireworks.
hurriedly entered the door, and as soon as I raised my eyes, I saw Aunt Liu sitting at the top of the living room, and Duanmu Bi standing in the living room looking around.
My heart suddenly chuckled.
"Why is my aunt here?" Doubts are doubts, and greetings still have to be called.
Seeing him come back, Aunt Liu seemed very happy: "Tomorrow is my father's death day, I took the fourth lady back to worship and worship, just passing by, so I came in to have a look." ”
Regarding her father's death day, Master Xie naturally didn't know.
But this also makes sense, after all, this is her hometown.
It's just that the uneasiness in my heart can't be dissipated.
Looking at Duanmubi over there, she was still a little jealous in her heart, this young lady was no better than her aunt from the same village.
It's just that Duanmubi didn't look at him, and still looked at the calligraphy and paintings on the wall by himself.
"I know you like to drink tea, and there are some new ones in the Hou Mansion, so you can try them."
Aunt Liu didn't care about his chattering reaction, and smiled to herself.
Hearing her say this, out of his previous habits, he still said honestly: "Don't dare to bother Aunt Lao." ”
Aunt Liu waved her hand and smiled: "Now that you are no longer in the Hou Mansion, there is no difference between master and servant." What's more, this time I came to you for something. ”
After hearing these words, my slightly calmed heart suddenly hung again.
"Auntie, I ......"
"Sit first, sit first."
Aunt Liu had a bit of an anti-guest taste, and greeted Master Xie.
With a worried heart, after taking a sip of tea, Master Xie finally couldn't help but say: "Aunt also said, now that I am no longer on an errand in the Hou Mansion, I am afraid that I will not be able to help my aunt." ”
"It helps."
It was Duanmu Bi, who had been reading calligraphy and painting all the time.
Under the light, there was a little smile on her turned face, but the smile became a little weird under the dim and unknown light.
"I don't know ......" At this point, Master Xie suddenly lost his voice, as if his throat was stuck in something.
But in an instant, he immediately felt a feeling of suffocation, and even his neck began to stiffen.
It took the boss's strength to turn his face, and he saw Aunt Liu looking at him with a faint smile.
"If you can help, if you die, you will help us."
Duanmu Bi walked over, looked at Aunt Liu and smiled, and didn't take a second look at Master Xie, who had turned into a corpse.
The two of them were not busy walking out at this time, but began to take off their clothes at the same time.
In the kitchen at this time, the firewood that had just been lit in the stove was also extinguished, but there was a woman lying on the floor with her eyes open.
After a while, Duanmu Bi and Aunt Liu seemed to be different people.
The two of them looked like they had a little bit of talent at this time, they were both dressed in black suits, but they looked like two people from the rivers and lakes.
"Let's go!" Speaking coldly, Aunt Liu walked to the door first.
"Auntie is leaving, won't you sit for a while?"
A voice suddenly sounded behind the nave, and both of them were startled and stopped at the same time.
There are still people in this room!
