Chapter 425: The Li Family's Affairs
The housekeeper wailed: "I really don't know, sir! Obviously, when I saw Young Master Xiao Mu before, he was still having fun there, who knew that he would disappear when he turned his head? β
Li Xuyao looked at him gloomily and did not speak.
The housekeeper trembled in his heart, turned around and pointed at Zhang Ying: "Master, I don't know, she must know!" The people who play with Young Master Xiao Mu are all arranged by her! β
Zhang Ying was already scared, but when she heard this, her legs were even weaker, and her whole body suddenly became half shorter.
I only heard her panic say: "Master, I don't know!" The person who played with Young Master Xiao Mu this afternoon was Xiao Jie, but she just said that there was something at home and asked for leave to leave! β
"Look, sir, this person is no longer here. When she comes back tomorrow, we'll be sure to interrogate her! β
The housekeeper said, and Zhang Ying also responded on the side.
Seeing that Li Xuyao's expression was a little loose, before a few people were happy, the familiar voice sounded: "Even if it's not your fault, it's a fact that Xiao Mu lost it, although he is back now, he is also injured." It's hard to convince the people if they don't punish you! β
Since Zhang Aimin jumped from the position of the Li family's nanny for many years to become the wife of the Li family, the tone of her speech towards the servants has changed.
Because she still has to live on her, no one has raised objections to this, especially the housekeeper and her relative who is 800 zhang away, Zhang Ying.
After she slowly calmed down, she got up and walked to Li Xuyao's side, grabbed his arm, and suggested, "Master, how about you fine them with three months' salary?" β
As soon as these words came out, the housekeeper and several people suddenly looked like vegetables, but they still nodded forcefully and said: "Yes, yes, we were indeed wrong, and the deduction of three months' salary is also the mercy of the old lady, we all understand!" β
Just as a few people were talking, the door of the study was opened, and Li Mu's small body walked in, he swept around, locked on Li Yuan's location and ran over directly.
When he got closer, he didn't need Li Yuan to do anything, he climbed onto the sofa by himself, tilted his head and stared at Li Yuan's slightly swollen cheeks with big eyes, his small mouth was tightly pursed, and his eyes were full of concern.
Li Yuan stretched out his hand and hugged the child into his arms, and lost the mood of watching the play coldly just now, and said directly with a sneer: "Tomorrow? Someone who has already made a mistake will come back tomorrow? Steward Ho, are you too naΓ―ve in your thinking? β
The housekeeper looked at Li Xuyao uncertainly, and replied, "What are you talking about?" β
Li Yuan looked at Li Xuyao with a mocking face, his eyes looked straight towards Li Xuyao, I don't know when it started, the words of the housekeeper and Zhang Aimin were much more useful to Li Xuyao than his eldest son.
Obviously, Li Xuyao married Zhang Aimin because Zhang Aimin took care of him for many years and treated him very well. Li Xuyao thought that after she became Mrs. Li, she would continue to be good to the two children, but she didn't know that people were selfish.
Zhang Aimin knew Li Xuyao's thoughts, and in front of him, she showed 100% dedication to the two children, but only she knew what was inside.
Otherwise, how could this huge Li family become like this?
Li Yuan glanced at the servants who were obviously sitting aside, but he didn't care about the servants who Li Mu had climbed onto the sofa just now, and a coldness slipped in his eyes: "How many servants are there in the Li family?" It won't be impossible to even look at a three-year-old. Even if someone wants to take him away, won't you even ask? β
Zhang Ying's legs were not weak at this time, and he took two steps forward and said, "What the eldest young master said is not right." What if Young Master Xiao Mu wanted to go out by himself? Xiao Jie listened to him, did she still do something wrong? β
Li Yuan lowered his head and asked Li Mu, "Did Xiao Mu want to go out by himself?" β
Li Mu shook his head.
Catching up with Li Yuan's gaze again, Zhang Ying felt that he was more confident: "Young Master Xiao Mu is only three years old now, he may even forget what he did just now, how can he still remember what happened in the afternoon?" And you also know that Young Master Xiao Mu used to blame others for the mistakes he made! β
"Enough!"
It seemed that he didn't like this topic, Li Xuyao gave an order, ended the words of the two, and pointed to the housekeeper and others: "All of you will have your salary deducted for three months." This is the end of this matter, and no one is allowed to mention it again! β
"Thank you, sir."
After the servants came out, after Li Xuyao returned to his desk, Zhang Aimin's eyes swept towards Li Yuan from time to time, as if prompting the two brothers to leave quickly.
Li Mu didn't like Zhang Aimin, so he climbed off the sofa and dragged his brother's hand out of the study.
When the door was closed, Li Yuan heard Zhang Aimin's soft tone: "Master, how is Zhang Feng's child in the company?" β
He frowned suddenly, feeling that what he had thought before was too simple.
Li Yuan and Li Mu's room was on the third floor, and after Li Mu pulled Li Yuan out, he didn't go towards the toy room, and dragged him back to the room directly.
Li Yuan looked at the time, it was already more than ten o'clock at night, and Li Mu had already fallen asleep at this time.
Thinking that his younger brother stayed up so late for him, Li Yuan felt his heart melt.
But this feeling of warmth did not last long, when it was interrupted by a cold water.
Li Mu sat on the bed, stretched out his little hand towards Li Yuan, and said concisely: "Mobile phone." β
Li Yuan was suspicious, but he still took out his mobile phone according to his words: "What does Xiao Mu want this for?" β
The main thing is that Xiao Mu has it himself! What to do with him?
Li Mu took the phone, first opened WeChat, and after seeing the message sent by Su Jinnian to Li Yuan, there was a smile in his eyes, and then he clicked on the chat box, solemnly sent his business card, and sent a voice, indicating that this was the WeChat of his Li Mu's child.
Li Yuan was made to cry and laugh by his operation: "Okay, you kid, just to get a beautiful sister's WeChat, right?" β
Li Mu didn't speak, clicked on Weibo again, and saw that Su Jinnian didn't forward the one he was playing with toys, so he pursed his mouth slightly, and went down a little happily.
While Li Mu was holding his phone, Li Yuan was thinking about how to ask him about the kidnappers.
After picking up Li Mu in the afternoon, Li Yuan consulted a friend who studied psychology, worried that today's incident would have an impact on Li Mu's psychology, and there were too many people in the Li family who had different intentions, so he didn't ask.
At this time, it was a good time for the brothers to be alone in the room, but he was worried that rash inquiries would cause Li Mu's rejection.
As for calling the police, Li Yuan didn't think about it at all.
Li Xuyao has taught him since he was a child that if there is anything that can be solved secretly, don't stab it in the open, because no one knows what the consequences will be.
Thousands of people have thousands of consciousnesses, and they can't grasp everyone's thinking in a good place, so everyone who doesn't want to make trouble about everything knows it.
This is especially true in the case of kidnappings.
Therefore, what Li Yuan wanted was to find out the murderer himself.
He had some doubts in his heart, but without evidence, everything was in vain.
"Xiao Mu, ......"
Looking at Li Mu's big eyes, Li Yuan didn't know how to ask.
On the contrary, Li Mu blinked his eyes a few times and said directly: "Are you asking me about kidnapping?" β
Ignoring Li Yuan's surprised expression, Li Mu said to himself.
He was playing in the toy room by himself at that time, although on the schedule, there were maids to play with him every day, but the maid of the Li family is well-known that as long as it is the day to play games with the little master, it is a day of rest, which is naturally achieved under the instruction of Zhang Aimin.
However, Li Mu didn't like to be taken care of like a child, so he didn't raise any objections, and others didn't pay attention.
It can be said that the kidnappers are very rampant, and the two men walked directly into Li's house and took Li Mu away.
Li Mu didn't realize what was going on at first, but after realizing it, he shouted twice, and found that both the servants and the gardeners were doing their own things as if they didn't see them, and he knew that things wouldn't be so simple.
When the kidnapper was about to cover his mouth, Li Mu took the lead in closing his mouth and signaled that he would not speak again.
Probably because the two kidnappers were inexperienced, and after seeing that he kept quiet, they didn't care anymore, and just stuffed into the car and ran.
Later, while one of the kidnappers was going to the toilet, Li Mu ran out, he knew that others would not believe in anything, so he wanted to do something big to attract people's attention.
So he ran to Su Jinnian's car, fortunately Su Jinnian's driving skills were better, so that he was saved from the risk of being run over by the wheels.
He didn't know why the two of them ran away after seeing Su Jinnian, and when Li Yuan told him, he knew that he was really lucky to run into a star directly! The most appealing kind!
After hearing Li Mu say this, Li Yuan didn't say anything for a long time, but the fist that was put aside clenched tightly.
He didn't expect Zhang Aimin to dare to be so bold.
The situation of the Li family is complicated but simple, Zhang Aimin can go from a nanny to this, Li Xuyao first valued her dedication to Li Yuan.
Especially when Li Xuyao and his wife have been busy with their careers, and after coming back every day, when they saw Li Yuan, who was taken care of quite well by Zhang Aimin, the two felt that the rear was handed over to someone who could be completely trusted.
It's just that this trust, but the shelf life is not long.
Li Yuan realized that Zhang Aimin's heart was different, and it was not long ago, and the clues after proved that his discovery was true, but at this time his mind was wavering.
On one side is the nanny who has taken care of him for many years, and on the other side is his young brother.
Li Yuan also felt that Li Mu's IQ was higher than that of ordinary children, otherwise he would not have maintained such a calm attitude under Zhang Aimin's treatment.
But now, he is not in the mood to take Li Mu for an examination at all, and his eyes are full of thoughts, how to let Li Xuyao discover Zhang Aimin's ambitions?
Although Li Xuyao originally married Zhang Aimin for her two children, after several years of married life, the man's mind has deviated.
Li Yuan was still thinking about it, and Li Mu tugged at the hem of his clothes: "Will you take me over tomorrow?" β
