Chapter 440: Husband and Wife, Father and Son
Wei Qian sighed, returned to the official school to take leave, and then followed Shuangxi back to the back office.
The back office and the official school are only separated by one street, and it only takes a few words to arrive.
Lord Wei was still in the front office, and Li was sitting alone in the hall, sulking.
Xiao Li went out yesterday afternoon, saying that he was going to her local product shop, and he didn't even bring a maid, let alone take the carriage in the house, so he didn't come back.
It just so happened that Wei Qian didn't go back to the house last night, and Li knew where Wei Qian was, thinking that Xiao Li had knocked over the vinegar jar and stayed at her brother Li Wu's house, after all, that local product shop was now managed by Li Wu, and Xiao Li's going there was equivalent to returning to his parents' house.
In the morning, when the Li family learned that Mrs. Wang had not returned, they were angry, and they all rebelled with their masters.
The Li family asked people to go to the local product shop and bring the little Li family back, and when they went, they realized that the little Li family had never been there at all, and Li Wu had not seen her for several days.
Li didn't believe it at first, thinking that the sister and brother had colluded to take Qiao, so they asked Shuangxi to call Wei Qian back, this bad thing was caused by Wei Qian, why let her clean up the mess?
Unexpectedly, Wei Qian hadn't come back yet, but Lord Wei came back in a hurry, because he was in a hurry, he tripped over the threshold when he entered the door, stumbled, and almost fell.
"What's wrong with you, frizzy."
Li glanced at Lord Wei in disgust, this man became more and more unpresentable.
"What about my daughter-in-law, is she not in the house?"
The weather was already hot, and Lord Wei hurried back, sweating even more, and the official uniform on his body had already penetrated with sweat.
The Li family knew that the Wei family's father and son didn't like the little Li family, so neither Wei Qian nor the Xiao Li family returned home last night, and the Li family only talked about Wei Qian in front of Lord Wei, and never mentioned the matter of the Xiao Li family.
Lord Wei is a father-in-law, even if he doesn't see Xiao Li, he won't take the initiative to ask, so before that, he didn't know that Xiao Li didn't return overnight.
Now hearing Lord Wei ask like this, Li scolded secretly, and he didn't know which-stirring stick had stabbed him in front of him.
She asked angrily: "You have something to do with her?" ”
Lord Wei glared at her, panting, he was just a scholar, now that he is middle-aged, his physical strength is exhausted, from the front to the back, not a far road, he ran out of breath.
"I'll just ask you, she's not in the mansion!"
Lord Wei raised his voice, he was gentle, even when he talked to his subordinates, he was humble and gentle, and when he spoke loudly like this, there were not a few times in a year.
Li Shi was startled and looked at him suspiciously: "What's wrong, what's wrong?" ”
Remembering that Master Wei asked Xiao Li, Li added a few words: "She was not in the house, originally I thought she went back to her parents' house, and asked someone to pick her up today, Li Wu said that she didn't go back, and I don't know if it's true or not, I asked Shuangxi to call Ah Qian, his daughter-in-law, let him coax." ”
"Huddle? Still want to coax? How to coax? Master Wei said sarcastically, he took out an envelope from his sleeve and threw it in front of Li, "Look at it." ”
After saying that, Master Wei pulled a chair and sat down, and his hands on his knees were clenched into fists.
Li Shi glanced at him, and then looked at the envelope thrown in front of him, the words on the envelope were pavilion style, square and dull.
The letter was addressed to Lord Wei, and Li took out the letterhead inside, and as soon as he read a few lines, he stood up from his chair in shock.
She looked at Lord Wei in disbelief: "This, who sent this letter?" ”
"Sent by a beggar." Lord Wei's tone was sad.
"Beggars? Can a beggar's letter be delivered to you? Who handed it in? Go and check, there must be something wrong with that person, it's a mole, it's a mole! ”
Li's voice grew louder and louder, and as he spoke, he slapped the table, and the two maids in the room were all frightened and retreated.
The lord and the wife are going to quarrel, and of course they can't be there.
Master Wei glanced at the backs of the two maids and said mockingly: "What about your demeanor, let me remind you?" ”
Li Shi glared at Master Wei viciously, and was about to have a seizure, when a maid's crisp voice sounded outside the door: "Childe is back!" ”
Li snorted coldly at Lord Wei, and said to the outside of the door, "Let him in!" ”
Wei Qian pushed the door and went out, giving a salute to Lord Wei and the Li family, polite and detached.
Li looked Wei Qian up and down, and saw that he was neatly dressed and his hair was combed neatly, but it was dark right now, obviously he didn't sleep well last night.
Also, I heard that the child was lost, and later found it back, I'm afraid I'm busy coaxing the child.
Li pushed the letter forward: "Look at it, your father brought it back." ”
Wei Qian glanced at the expressionless Lord Wei, did not speak, and silently picked up the letter.
He read it very carefully, and for a long time, he read it several times, folded it carefully, and put it back in the envelope.
"What do you think?" Lee asked.
Wei Qian tugged at the corners of his mouth and showed a strange smile: "This letter is addressed to my father, not to me, and the person who blackmailed the letter is my father, not me." ”
Li Shi was furious: "But she is your wife, the mother of your daughter!" ”
Wei Qian seemed to have heard something interesting, he smiled, looked at Li, and said word by word: "My wife, she has long been dead." ”
Li's face changed greatly, and he slapped his palm on the table: "It's the opposite, you're going to be the opposite!" ”
Wei Qian glanced at her mockingly, ignored her, but looked at Lord Wei, who had been silent: "Father, do you also want me to deal with this matter?" Aren't you afraid that those people will kill people without blinking an eye and slash me with a knife? Yes, I almost forgot, you now have a little one, more obedient than me, and more at your mercy than I am, you ......"
"Enough!" Master Wei interrupted him in a cold voice, looking at Wei Qian meaningfully, but the words were said to the Li family, "She is your person, and if something happens to her, it should be handled by you." ”
Li was furious, and the person surnamed Wei ate the bear's heart and leopard gall, and dared to talk to her in such a tone.
"The surname is Wei, you don't care about your son?"
Hearing this, Lord Wei was stunned, and then, his gaze fell on Wei Qian's face again: "My son is here." ”
Li Shi was stunned and sneered: "The surname is Wei, don't regret it!" ”
Master Wei smiled bitterly: "There are too many things that I regret in this life, and it's not bad this time." ”
Li's gaze swept over the faces of the two of them, snorted coldly, flicked his sleeves, slammed the door and walked out.
Seeing her leave, Wei Qian looked at Master Wei and suddenly asked, "This letter says that the woman told your secret, aren't you afraid?" ”
Master Wei laughed at himself: "My biggest secret is you, you are not afraid, what can I fear?" ”
"Me? I don't want to live for a long time, you don't have to compare yourself to me. Wei Qian said coldly.
