Chapter 16 The black cauldron is reversed
When Lin Qi woke up, the sky was almost dark, and there was no candle flame around.
There was a sudden sound of footsteps at the door, followed by a cry, and then the door was kicked open.
"Luo Baisu, you little bastard, you dare to hurt my son, I don't think you want to live anymore!" A woman shouted and scolded the leader as she entered the door, and struck a stick on the table.
The torches shone in, and the room instantly lit up, like day.
Lin Qi sat on the edge of the bed, stretched his waist, and looked at her indifferently.
This person is Luo Qingwan's biological mother, her stepmother, Jiang Yuhuan of the Jiang family.
The Jiang family is a family of merchants, although it is not said that the wealth rivals the country, but there are dozens of shops of all sizes in Lin'an City. However, Jiang Zhuoxia, the current head of the Jiang family, is not from Lin'an.
Jiang Zhuoxia's real name is Fang Zhuoxia, his parents died when he was a child, because he met Jiang Yuer, a young lady of the Jiang family, on the way to Beijing to catch the exam, the two fell in love with each other, and the pearl fetus was secretly knotted. But because of this, after the old man of the Jiang family went into hiding, he shared most of the Jiang family's property.
Jiang Yuer is the only daughter of the Jiang family, and she gave birth to a daughter, which is this Jiang Yuhuan. Because of the money in the family, he has been pampered since he was a child, and he has developed an arrogant and unreasonable temperament.
The Jiang family's main room has very few veins, but there are many uncles and uncles on the side, and they are all staring at the fat piece of the main room with the momentum of a hungry wolf.
Although Jiang Zhuoxia had a lot of money in his hands, he was also walking on thin ice, and after several twists and turns, he actually had the idea of stuffing his daughter into the mansion of the children of the official family in order to protect himself, and naturally chose Luo Ting'an, who was young and promising at the time.
Since ancient times, businessmen have been meticulous, even if they are rich, their status cannot be compared with that of the official eunuchs.
This is also the reason why Mrs. Bai Qin has passed away for many years, but the Jiang family has not been corrected.
"Where did you start with this? My sister fell at the door by herself, and she had nothing to do with me. Lin Qi looked at her lazily.
According to the memory of the original owner, this stepmother is also extremely harsh to the original owner, often taking advantage of Prime Minister Luo's outing, beating and scolding the original owner, and pretending to be a hypocritical face on the surface.
"What do you call me?" Hearing this, Jiang's face changed instantly.
The most taboo thing for her is that others mention the identity of her concubine, for so many years, the power of the backyard has been in her hands, although she has not been put in the right position, but no one in the house dares to provoke her at will.
Before that, Luo Baisu had been calling her mother.
She trembled with anger, stood up, pointed at Lin Ji with a wooden stick, and waited for her to change her words obediently.
Unexpectedly, I saw Lin Qi smile indifferently, "Auntie, according to your identity, you are a concubine, why don't you call your aunt?" ”
"Do you still want to occupy the magpie's nest and worry about my mother's position? The businessman's house can't be correct, the aunt is this age, is it that "The Female Ring" and "Internal Training" have not been read thoroughly, or are they old and yellow, and even their thinking is regressing? ”
Lin Qi's fluttering two sentences made Jiang dizzy with anger. not only mentioned her identity, but also dared to say that she was old, and what was even more infuriating was that she said that she didn't know the reason, isn't this scolding her father and mother in a different way?
"You...... You little bastard! Today is going to be reversed! As he spoke, he picked up the wooden stick and wanted to hit Lin Qi with a stick, but before the wooden stick fell, it was Luo Qingwan who had just woken up and rushed out.
I saw Luo Qingwan's long messy hair blurring her whole face, she reached out and grabbed the wooden stick, completely ignoring the pain of the wooden stick, her eyes widened, and her face was full of horror.
"Wan'er, why did you wake up, let your mother see it, this little bastard dares to hurt you, don't worry, your mother will never spare her!" Jiang took the wooden stick from her hand, and as she spoke, she wanted to pounce on Lin Qi again.
"Don't! Mother, she is a ghost, she killed Hongxing, mother she is a ghost...... Ah......h
She made a whimpering sound and turned her head to look at Lin Qi, but as soon as she saw her, she immediately turned her head away and hid in Jiang's arms in fear.
She was really frightened by Lin Ji's trick of killing people without blinking.
She stretched out her hand and pointed to the quilt on the ground on the side, because it was night, after the Jiang family entered the door, she didn't notice that there was a quilt on the ground.
"You, go over and see what it is, it actually scared my Wan'er like this." If you want to talk about Luo Qingwan, she is used to bullying Luo Baisu in normal times, but she has never looked like she is today.
An old woman walked over, lifted the quilt, suddenly exclaimed, shook her hand, and retreated a few steps in a row.
"Dead ...... Dead, Mrs. Jiang, Hongxing is dead. Because the Jiang family has always held the power of the family in the mansion and taboos the identity, the people in the mansion dare not call her aunt directly.
But the original Mrs. Bai Qin, who has a prominent family position and a decree, and has the support of the emperor and the entire Guogong Mansion behind her, the Jiang family cannot be directly promoted, so the people in the house have successively added her surname in front of the word "Mrs.", so as to achieve both.
At this time, Hongxing's corpse was exposed to everyone's eyes, and the atmosphere was quiet for a moment.
"Mother, mother, look, Hongxing is dead, I'm not wrong, it was Luo Baisu who killed it, she killed it!" Luo Qingwan tried her best to control her emotions and wanted to make people believe her.
Lin Qi got up, approached slowly, and said word by word, "Sister is too tired today, Hongxing was obviously killed by you with your own hands, how can you say that it is me?" Although I usually love to take the blame for you, I can't push any pot on me, this murder is better for my sister to bear the ground, strive for leniency in confession, and be strict in resisting. ”
Hearing this, Luo Qingwan's eyes almost bleed, "I saw with my own eyes that it was you who killed Hongxing, and you kicked her with a quilt on her head, and she died, I saw it with my own eyes." ”
Lin Qi pursed his lips indifferently and laughed indifferently, "Yes, yes, what my sister said is that I killed Hongxing, covered her with a quilt, and kicked her to death......"
Fool, it was originally an easy thing, but if you say this, who will believe you.
Lin Qi laughed secretly in his heart, he was also a person who survived the rain of bullets in his previous life, and this psychological quality is still there, if you want to defeat the enemy, you must first win yourself, and you will not be chaotic, and you have more than half of the chance of winning.
Sure enough, when everyone present heard this, they all looked at each other, where is the truth that a woman can kick a dead person? Besides, it's still separated by a winter quilt, which is simply incredible.
Besides, looking at the death of the maid on the ground, it is obvious that she was covered to death.
The Jiang family was uncertain in her heart, but at present, whether Luo Qingwan killed her or not, she had to seal the news so as not to fall into the mouth, "It was the third lady who killed Hongxing!" Do you hear me? If anyone dares to go out and say half a word, don't blame me for cutting off his tongue! ”
"Yes, I hear you." Everyone was shocked when they heard this, but they could only nod obediently in response, otherwise, they would be the next to die.
Lin Qi's cold eyes narrowed slightly, "Auntie, is this planning to detain the black pot to the end?" Do you know what this murder is? ”
"Haha...... That's why I know it. Jiang turned his head faintly, turned his back to the door, and laughed.
"It's already cheap for you to live for so many years, as long as you die today, my Wan'er can take advantage of the situation to marry the fifth prince and become a royal man."
"You are a little bastard who has died of your mother, you have a mother and no mother, you deserve to die, dare to carry it with me, you can't do it!"
As he spoke, Jiang raised his hand and wanted to give Lin Ji a slap.
"Who said that my young lady from the Prime Minister's Mansion has a mother and no mother?" A male voice suddenly sounded in the darkness of the night, unhurried, with the majesty of force majeure.
Lin Qi's heart moved, and it came at the right time.
