Diandian couldn't hear Li Qingling say about its shame, it raised its head and bit Li Qingling's sleeve with its mouth open, and dragged it vigorously, telling Li Qingling to stop talking, it was going to have no face.
Li Qingling glanced down at it, smiled and nodded its little head, "Okay, okay, I won't say anything." "This little bit still knows how to be shy, it's really...
Hu Juanjuan smiled again and glanced at Diandian, and changed the topic without a trace, she was afraid that if she continued, Diandian would be annoyed and ashamed.
Knowing Hu Juanjuan's kindness, Li Qingling followed her wishes.
Seeing that Li Qingling no longer talked about it, it snorted happily twice, and then lay back on Li Qingling's lap and pricked up its ears to listen to them.
It wasn't until it was almost noon that Hu Juanjuan said goodbye and went home.
After Li Qingling saw Hu Juanjuan leave, she took Diandian back to the yard, and for a while, the children followed Mr. Luo out to sketch, and she didn't eat at home, and she wouldn't go to the dining room to eat alone, but usually ate in the room.
Not long after she returned to the yard, Liu Zhimo came back, seeing that his expression was a little solemn, she asked him worriedly What was wrong?
Is something going on?
I have been in Ninghua County for so long, and I have never seen him with such a look.
Liu Zhimo sat on the chair, adjusted his expression, shook his head and said, It's okay.
This is clearly something.
Li Qingling frowned and asked him if the matter should be kept secret and not said outside?
"Not really, I just don't want you to worry about it."
"Brother Zhimo, I have nothing to do at home, and if I don't use my brain, I will become a waste." Since she became pregnant, she was so nervous, she didn't let her do it, she didn't let her do it, she was about to get bored, "Tell me, see if I can help you?" โ
Liu Zhimo glanced at her for a while before telling her what happened.
After hearing this, Li Qingling's brows furrowed even tighter, "Something is wrong with Wutong Village?" โ
Liu Zhimo nodded, he had been investigating Ying Jie's case, and the more he investigated, the more he felt that Ying Jie's death was not simple.
He definitely didn't die accidentally.
Although he asked Ying Jie's family, his family insisted that Ying Jie died accidentally, but he didn't believe it, so he secretly continued to investigate, but he didn't expect that in the investigation, he found something wrong with Wutong Village.
"Wutong Village won't hide any big secrets, and if Ying Jie accidentally saw it, he was killed and killed, right?" Li Qingling said something whimsically, but as soon as she said this, Liu Zhimo sat up straight suddenly, he looked at Li Qingling with burning eyes, leaned over and kissed her.
"Thank you, lady, for solving my doubts." He stood up excitedly, looked at Li Qingling and said apologetically: "I can't eat with you at noon, I'll go to Wutong Village." With that, he walked out of the room quickly.
"Hey..."Li Qingling raised his hand, and put it down helplessly, "You can eat and go again, really..."
She raised her voice and shouted Nian Xia twice, and Nian Xia rushed in and asked her what was wrong?
Li Qingling asked her to go to the kitchen to pack the meals, and asked Ling Yi to send them to the yamen to Liu Zhimo, be fast, otherwise she wouldn't be able to catch up with him.
Nian Xia saw that Li Qingling was in such a hurry, she nodded and answered twice, lifted the hem of her skirt, and ran to the kitchen.
Li Qingling sighed slightly, a little worried about Liu Zhimo, I don't know if his trip will go well?
And Liu Zhimo's side, he went to Ma Xiancheng's house, called Ma Xiancheng, and the two rushed back to the yamen together.
Ma Xiancheng looked at Liu Zhimo's face gloomy, he beat a drum in his heart, and asked him what was wrong?
Liu Zhimo put his hands behind his back, frowned and said that he was going to Wutong Village.
Going to Wutong Village again?
Why do you want to go to Wutong Village again? Ma Xiancheng's face was full of doubts, the adults have walked Wutong Village several times, why do you still want to go?
"My lord, what are you doing in Wutong Village?"
"Observe public opinion." Before he found out what was going on, he didn't plan to tell Ma Xiancheng about his suspicions, and he was terrified.
Observe public opinion?
The adults hurriedly pulled him out, just to go to Wutong Village to observe public opinion?
Why did he think the adults were lying to him?
Ma Xiancheng tilted his head and glanced at Liu Zhimo again, scratched his head tangledly, and swallowed back the words that came to his mouth.
It's hard to guess the adult's mind, so he should not guess and just follow the adult.
Liu Zhimo glanced at Ma Xiancheng, pulled the corners of his mouth slightly, and quickened the pace of returning to the yamen.
When the two returned to the yamen and were about to get into the carriage, Ling Yi rushed over, "My lord, your lunch, Madame asked her subordinates to send it." โ
Hearing that it was Li Qingling who asked Ling Yi to send the lunch, Liu Zhimo curled the corners of his mouth, stretched out his hand to take it, and turned around and got into the carriage.
Ma Xiancheng looked at the lunch box in Liu Zhimo's hand with envy and jealousy, why didn't his wife think of bringing her lunch?
My lord's life is so good, Madame thinks about him all the time.
Liu Zhimo saw Ma Xiancheng's complaining expression, he smiled at the corner of his mouth, opened the small table in the carriage, brought out the food, and handed a pair of chopsticks to Ma Xiancheng, "Come, eat." "He is not a ruthless person, how could he let his subordinates starve?
Ma Xiancheng waved his hand, "My lord, you eat, I'm not hungry." When he said this, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva, he hadn't eaten at noon, how could he not be hungry?
However, this is a meal that Madame packed for adults, how can he eat it?
"Madame has prepared a measure for two people." Liu Zhimo said lightly, and stuffed the chopsticks into Ma Xiancheng's hand, "Eat, how can you have the strength to work if you don't eat enough?" โ
Work?
What kind of work do you have to do? Did the adults want him to help the villagers?
Ma Xiancheng glanced at Liu Zhimo in confusion, seeing that he ate so deliciously, he couldn't help swallowing his saliva, and for a moment, he couldn't stand the temptation of the food, and lowered his head to eat.
Liu Zhimo glanced at him, his eyes were crooked, this is right!
After eating and drinking, Ma Xiancheng leaned against the wall of the car, glanced at Liu Zhimo again, endured it, didn't hold back, and asked him again, what are you doing in Wutong Village? Is it to investigate Ying Jie's case?
Liu Zhimo closed his eyes, didn't open his eyes, and still said lightly, observing public opinion.
Is it really sensitive?
Ma Xiancheng's mouth moved, he didn't continue to ask, and he also followed Liu Zhimo's example, closing his eyes and resting.
After going to Wutong Village, Liu Zhimo stretched out his hand and pushed Ma Xiancheng, Ma Xiancheng opened his eyes in a daze, looked at Liu Zhimo, and asked him what was wrong?
The corners of Liu Zhimo's mouth twitched, and the man fell asleep again.
"Wipe the saliva from your mouth."
After the words fell, he crossed Ma Xiancheng and got out of the carriage directly.
Ma Xiancheng stretched out his hand and wiped the corners of his mouth, and after finding that there was no saliva, he realized that he had been deceived by Liu Zhimo, his face turned red, and he got out of the carriage with him, and when he saw a somewhat familiar place, he suddenly touched his head.
It turned out that Wutong Village had arrived, but I didn't expect him to sleep for so long again, if Liu Zhimo hadn't woken him up, I'm afraid he would have slept like last time.
Ma Xiancheng lowered his head a little ashamedly, followed behind Liu Zhimo, and didn't dare to say anything.
Ay... Sleeping so soundly in front of adults three times and twice, he is really...
Liu Zhimo ignored him and asked the villagers who came to meet him to get up, so that they didn't have to care about him and went to work.
After the other villagers left, the village chief still stayed by Liu Zhimo's side, waiting for Liu Zhimo's orders.
After Liu Zhimo walked around Wutong Village, he told the village chief that he wanted to go up the mountain to have a look.
As soon as he said this, the village chief was taken aback, and he looked up at Liu Zhimo, "Big... My lord, this... There are wild beasts on this mountain, you... Or don't go. "What's there to see on this mountain? Why do you want to go up the mountain?
Ma Xiancheng also followed and persuaded Liu Zhimo not to go up the mountain, it was too dangerous.
What if something happens to the adults on the mountain? What did he do?
Such a dangerous thing must not be allowed to be done by adults.
Liu Zhimo said with a firm expression, he went up to see if the soil quality of this mountain was suitable for growing food?
Growing food in the mountains?
This mountain is so high, how can you grow food?
The village chief frowned and glanced at Liu Zhimo, feeling that Liu Zhimo didn't understand the matter of crops, so he would say such a thing.
Not to mention the village chief, even Ma Xiancheng listened to it, and his brows jumped, I don't know what medicine is being sold in Liu Zhimo's gourd?
How did he hear it in such a daze?
"It's not appropriate for this official to announce it now, but you'll know later." Liu Zhimo put his hands behind his back, looking unfathomable, "Trouble the village chief, you can find someone who knows how to hunt to show the way for this official." "He had to go up the mountain to take a look, and if he didn't see it, he was unwilling.
Seeing Liu Zhimo's firm attitude, the village chief nodded helplessly and asked people to find someone.
The person who came was a middle-aged man who occasionally went to the mountains to hunt and add some meat to his family, so he was quite familiar with Wutong Mountain.
After he greeted Liu Zhimo, he turned to the village chief and asked the village chief what was the matter with him?
"Wood, adults, they want to go up the mountain, you are familiar with the area of Wutong Mountain, you take adults and them for a walk."
Wood didn't say anything, but nodded in response.
Liu Zhimo turned his head to look at Ma Xiancheng and asked him to wait for him in the carriage without having to follow.
Yes?
Don't let him go?
Ma Xiancheng glared and said that he was going to follow.
Liu Zhimo looked him up and down, and said disgustedly, can he climb the mountain with an old bone?
After the words fell, he took the two officials and left.
Ma Xiancheng: "..."
He's disgusted by adults... Abandoned... Finish...
Is he old?
He reached out and touched his face, turned his head to look at the village chief and asked, Am I old?
The village chief endured the smile on the corner of his mouth, lowered his head and shook his head, saying that he was not old.
"Like, where am I old?"
The village chief cleared his throat and wanted to take Ma Xiancheng back to his house to rest and rest.
Ma Xiancheng waved his hand and said no, he just went to the carriage to rest.
He asked the village chief to do his own thing, and he went back to the carriage to wait for Liu Zhimo.
Unexpectedly, he waited until it was dark, and he didn't see Liu Zhimo go down the mountain.
He was anxious and panicked, climbed out of the carriage, ran to the village chief, and asked him if the middle-aged man had returned?
Hearing this, the village chief's face changed, "Your Excellency hasn't come down the mountain yet?" "It can't be an accident, right?
