Chapter 68: The Orchid's Means
As the saying goes, three women in one play. But that's not all, especially when one of the three women is suspicious. Ping'er didn't say a word from the moment she came to Meixiang Xiaozhu, which made Yingchun and Hu Ji quickly form a united front, with Yingchun in charge of keeping an eye on Ping'er to prevent her from slipping away again, and Hu Ji was responsible for checking her things. So, when Chu Yunfei and Mei Yingxue came back, they saw this strange scene: Yingchun and Ping'er were facing each other, and Hu Ji was sitting quietly in the corner counting things.
The most surprising thing was Mei Yingxue, he pointed at Ping'er, and even stammered a little when he spoke: "God...... You...... She...... How did it end up here? How did you find her? ”
Yingchun's face was proud, and this was not thanks to Chu Yunfei's arrangements in the morning. In fact, before going to Li's house, Chu Yunfei ordered her to stay outside the door of Li's house, and as long as someone came out, regardless of gender, old or young, they would all bring back Meixiang Xiaozhu. Even she didn't expect that what she was waiting for would be a beautiful woman.
Mei Yingxue smiled and patted Chu Yunfei: "You really surprised me." Did you already calculate that she would escape from the Li family? You won't find out there's something wrong with her from the start, will you? ”
Chu Yunfei did not answer. This time it was just luck. In fact, he observed everyone in the Li family with a skeptical attitude at the beginning, and naturally he also doubted Ping'er. arranged for Yingchun to stay there, just in case, but unexpectedly, it came in handy and caught Ping'er squarely.
Ping'er glared at Chu Yunfei, a little weak-hearted, but unwilling to admit her mistake, and shouted, "What do you want to do?" You don't suspect that I kidnapped Li Dashan, do you? If you do, you're mistaken. I admit that when I married into the Li family, I was just for money......"
Since Chu and Mei came in, Hu Ji has not paid attention to them, and is still doing what he is doing. When Ping'er opened her mouth to speak, she was shocked, although it was only a momentary thing, she was seen by Chu Yunfei. Obviously, she had definitely heard this voice, but the confused expression on her face meant that she couldn't remember who Ping'er was.
"But Li Dashan is not as generous as you think, I am right?" Hu Ji suddenly spoke, and raised the jewelry that Yang found from Ping'er's baggage, "Since you escaped from the Li family and chose an extraordinary period, these must be the most precious things you think are the most." Can these ...... It won't add up to more than five hundred taels of silver, which doesn't match your sixth lady's status. Moreover, most of these things are not real money. Especially these are relatively new and definitely not real money. The only thing that catches people's eyes is probably just a relatively new style! ”
Ping'er took a few steps forward in surprise, looked at Orchid and asked, "What did you say?" Isn't this real money? How is that possible? He...... No way, he won't lie to me, although rarely give me money, but these things ...... He won't lie to me. ”
Chu Yunfei picked up the jewelry and examined it carefully, and sure enough, just like Hu Ji said, there are only two or three pieces of jewelry that are really valuable, and the style is older. Jewelry that looks relatively new is basically gold-plated or gilt. The color of the gemstones on it is not too good, and the price is certainly quite cheap.
Ping'er looked disappointed and couldn't help but want to scream, but she just sighed, and her face became even more ugly.
"Now can you tell me why you ran away from the Li family? What was the purpose of you entering the Li family in the first place......" Chu Yunfei looked at Ping'er.
Ping'er's face turned red: "I'...... I have no name, no surname, and I am an orphan...... Go to Li Dashan's house...... I just heard that he has a kind heart and a rich family. In order to cheat and eat and drink, enjoy a few days of blessings...... That's why I went there. Is there anything else you'd like to ask? ”
Apparently she is not a good liar, and she stutters a little when she tells a lie. A pair of big watery eyes were full of shame.
"You say you're an orphan and don't understand anything? But it doesn't seem to me that way. You seem to be very cultivated, and you seem to have a good relationship with everyone in the Li family. However, you must have some ulterior motive in going to Li's house, otherwise you wouldn't have let go of a good young grandmother and give Li Dashan a partial house. Although the eldest son of the Li family is not outstanding in appearance, he is much younger than Li Dashan anyway, right? He will be the head of the Li family in the future, if you give up this and ask for the other, will there be no inside story in this? ”
Ping'er was speechless, she had to admit that Chu Yunfei said a lot. The purpose of her entering the Li family is for money, and the reason is just as Chu Yunfei said, the person who is really in charge of the treasury of the Li family is Li Dashan, and he is the real head of the family. Although the fifth lady is a housekeeper, she may be able to make her own decisions, but there are very few things. As for the eldest son of Li, he is nominally the son of the Li family, but Li Dashan is in charge of all the business, and he only occasionally helps with some things. In fact...... She has always felt a little sorry for Li Jianye, she thinks he is a good person, but she is a bad person.
Seeing that she had acquiesced, Chu Yunfei continued to ask, "The address you left at the beginning, although there is a family there, there is no such person as you. Who was your aunt back then? Are you also an accomplice? ”
Ping'er is still silent, she can't say, she can't say anything!
If you want a woman to speak, Chu Yunfei is indeed a little helpless. At this moment, Hu Ji, who was sitting opposite, suddenly came to her, took the jewelry, and said softly, "I am a woman, and I have dealt with many men. Although money is not very important in the relationship between men and women, whether a man is willing to spend money for a woman is the most important thing. Just look at these jewelry, you can guess that you are not happy in the Li family. Otherwise, you wouldn't be at risk, would you? ”
Ping'er looked at her with a confused expression. Although she didn't quite understand what Orchid was saying, her words had clearly touched her heartstrings. Orchid continued: "Especially if you marry a man who is older than yourself, it is even more important that you are willing to spend money on yourself, because being willing to spend money is the performance that he values himself." No matter how good Li Dashanren's reputation is, at least judging from these jewelry, I don't think he is a good husband. He has a lot of money, but the jewelry he gives you is some bargains, so will his heart for you be true? You should be glad that today I identified these fake jewelry for you, and if I don't tell you, you will definitely become the laughing stock of everyone if you give these things to your relatives and friends! Therefore, no matter what you have done to Li Dashanren, it is reasonable, because a man like him who deceives women is not worthy of your love at all! ”
This remark has won great affirmation for the Spring Festival. But it made Chu Yunfei and Mei Yingxue, who were standing on the side, feel a chill down their backs, they didn't expect the woman's mind to be so complicated.
Ping'er gritted her teeth, tears dripping in her eyes, "I really didn't expect it...... That's how it turned out...... It makes me ...... too much Unexpected! I shouldn't have trusted him in the first place...... However, I haven't done anything unreasonable, let alone kidnapped him, if you don't believe me, then go and find out. ”
Chu Yunfei was a little puzzled, looking at Ping'er's appearance as if she was lying, and there seemed to be no need to lie. But judging from the investigation results from the beginning to the present, she must be related to the kidnapping of Li Dashanren. Looks like he's going to need to put some effort into getting her to speak.
