The fire is in full swing, with a slight 'sizzling' sound, and the hot tea exudes a fresh fragrance, which is very pleasant.

"I don't know what happened to my nephew's visit this time?"

Li Zifeng smiled, took a sip of tea casually, and then looked around at Li Quan and the two servants who were waiting in the inner hall.

When the door of the inner hall was closed, and the hall was so quiet that there was only the sound of two people breathing, Li Zifeng asked unhurriedly, "I wonder if there is a suspicious person in the village recently?"

Li Muyang's heart was empty, and his face was slightly surprised, "What does the virtuous nephew mean?"

"Of course, the one who makes the owner feel uncomfortable, this man wears a black cloak and often moves in the dark. ”

Li Muyang smiled embarrassedly, "The virtuous nephew is joking, where can there be such a person, like a ghost." ”

Li Zifeng took in all the emotions that Li Muyang reflected, and said with a smile, "Ghosts are not terrible, what is terrible is that ghosts have a strong background, waiting for an opportunity to use you or force you to do something shady." ”

Li Muyang trembled, looking at Li Zifeng's knife-like eyes, a trace of cold sweat broke out on his forehead, he was so young that he spoke so powerfully, and he didn't even let him have a moment of respite. He was even wondering if Li Zifeng was a ghost.

After being silent for a long time, Li Muyang raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead, and pretended to be calm, "According to the words of the virtuous nephew, this ghost has a strong background, and my Hongyuan Villa Temple is small, so he can't look down on it!"

Li Zifeng is good at picking out the key points from other people's words, hearing Li Muyang say this, his pupils constricted, and his brows furrowed slightly, who is that 'he'? Although he doubted, he didn't ask any further, and he had to stop knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger, otherwise it would be counterproductive.

Thinking of this, Li Zifeng put down the teacup, "That's good, depending on the great business of the owner's family, if you let people with ulterior motives use it, I'm afraid it won't end well." ”

Li Muyang was relieved when he saw that Li Zifeng didn't pursue it any further, "That's what the virtuous nephew said." ”

At this time, a breeze was blowing around him, and Li Zifeng looked around again and didn't find anything wrong. When the atmosphere was silent, the door was pushed open, and a good aroma wafted in, followed by a sweet voice, "Uncle, I heard that there is a guest with an extraordinary temperament, can the little girl see it?"

In a serious atmosphere, this voice was extremely abrupt, Li Muyang didn't expect Su Kexin to come over at this time, Li Zifeng looked up, and saw a girl in a pale pink dress slowly entering, looking only sixteen or seventeen years old.

No matter how much he loves, appearing in an inopportune place at this time, Li Muyang is still a little angry in his heart, and then he glared at him, and his voice was slightly higher, "It's hearty, don't be rude!"

"Kexin?" Li Zifeng's expression froze, and he vaguely remembered the name Kexin in his memory, and then asked curiously, "Owner, may I ask who this is?"

"Oh, this is my niece Su Kexin, who is eighteen years old, and has no father and mother since she was a child, so she was taken to the villa to be raised, and she also complained to me, she was too arrogant to her, and she didn't know how to be polite, which made the virtuous nephew smile. ”

"Su Kexin..."Li Zifeng stared at the girl in front of him, and his thoughts couldn't help but drift back to eleven years ago...

On that day, after a day's work, he had time to read and write, when a little girl rubbed beside him and asked with a little curiosity, "Brother Shiying, you still work hard!"

"Miss, you better stay away from me, in case I get hurt again, I will be beaten again. ”

"I don't," the little girl said coquettishly, "I'm going to stick to you, unless you call me sister." ”

"It's getting late, so let's go and rest!"

"You're so boring!" complained the little girl, and then her eyes lit up, as if she had thought of some bad idea, and shouted at the door, "Come and see! Brother Shiying has bullied me." ”

"Shut up..."Li Shiying hurriedly covered the little girl's mouth, "I think I'll have a long life!"

The little girl bit his hand away, "If you call me sister, I won't shout." ”

"Sister... Sister... Go to sleep, I want to read more!"

"That's pretty much it. The little girl turned away satisfied, and when she walked to the door, she did not forget to be complacent, "Good brother, my sister will protect you in the future." ”

This sister did what she said, and when she was punched and kicked by Li Muyang many times, it was terminated because of her coquettish crying, and at that time, he was also very grateful for her care, although the way of care was a bit noisy...... Thinking of this, Li Zifeng couldn't help but smile.

"Virtuous nephew?"

With a light call, cutting off his contemplation, Li Zifeng suddenly came back to his senses, only to realize that he had been staring at Su Kexin rudely for a long time, smiled awkwardly, and said to Li Muyang, "Miss is really fresh and refined, beautiful and lovely." Then he hurriedly stood up and saluted Su Kexin, "Under Li Zifeng, I hope Miss will forgive me for the rudeness." ”

Su Kexin didn't seem to mind, and still approached Li Zifeng with a smile and looked up and down, "It turns out that you are a distinguished guest! It's pretty good. ”

Li Zifeng has a black line on his face, since he was a child, it is the first time he has heard someone say that he is good-looking. Seeing that the atmosphere was stiff, Li Muyang stood up angrily and patted Su Kexin's arm, "How do you speak?!"

"Uncle, isn't it okay for the little girl to make a joke? Why are you so serious all day long?!"

Li Muyang frowned and nodded Su Kexin's forehead, "Be careful of getting into trouble one day because of your gaffe!"

"Oh, uncle, you think too much, what trouble can the little girl cause if she stays at home all these years......"

When the words landed, Li Zifeng's heart twitched, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, it seemed to be an ordinary joke, but he felt that something was wrong! There seemed to be a sense of déjà vu, but what he was sure of was that this feeling of déjà vu did not originate from the warmth of getting along with him when he was a child, but there was a kind of chill, which made people uncomfortable, but what was wrong?

The verandah zigzags, and the stones under the steps are spread into a road. The courtyard above is quiet, the house is spacious and atmospheric, as soon as you enter the door, there is a quiet room, the bed is idle, the bookshelf leans against the wall, the screen separates the inner and outer rooms simply, the screen burns the incense burner, exudes a faint Buddha incense.

An older woman sat in front of the tea table, leisurely enjoying the refreshments, she was Li Muyang's wife Ke Zhen'er, Ke Zhen'er was in her early forties, dressed in dark green clothes, black hair combed in a slightly complicated bun, the hair bun was obliquely inserted with gold-trimmed jasper hairpins, the faint wrinkles at the corners of the eyes were almost invisible, a pair of eyes under the willow eyebrows, bottomless, skin like snow, bright red lips slightly raised, outlining an elusive smile.

Green Stone, who was serving closely, stood beside Madame for a long time, his eyes restlessly looking for the movement outside, and finally asked Ke Zhen'er tentatively, "Madam, there is a distinguished guest in front, are you really not going to see it?"

Greenstone is Ke Zhen'er's dowry girl, compared to other maids and servants in the house, when she talks to Ke Zhen'er, she is more casual, as long as it is not too excessive, Ke Zhen'er will not mind.

After drinking a cup of tea, Ke Zhen'er said quietly, "This is their man's business, what do I do as a woman? To be a man, you must understand the rules and etiquette, the former cheap maid Liu Xiujuan, and the evil obstacles she was born with, just listened to what she shouldn't have heard, and finally ended up with blurred flesh and blood, and no bones remained." ”

Liu Xiujuan was also Ke Zhen'er's dowry maid, but because she was not as smart and clever as Greenstone, she was never allowed to see Ke Zhen'er, and later slept with the drunk Li Muyang, and was pregnant with a child, and finally had to accept her as a concubine. But afterwards, because Li Muyang was sober, he regretted it a little, so he beat and scolded their mother and son like servants. This made Ke Zhen'er's heart a little happier.

"They brought it on themselves. But the slave heard that the distinguished guest who came this time was a powerful master, and in a few words, the old man had nothing to say, and only the only thing left was to be submissive, and nodded yes. and Uncle Quan, the housekeeper, was also so angry that he had nothing to say, and he wanted to attack but didn't dare to attack. ”

"You deserve it! Li Muyang just owes a collision! And that Li Quan, it's just that he relies on Li Muyang's power to run rampant and domineering on weekdays, and this time he didn't know how to bump into the people sent by the Hengshan faction, he really didn't feel happy!" Ke Zhen'er said hatefully, and then breathed a sigh of relief, "But fortunately, Shijie took advantage of some trivial matters to hide out, or if he ran into it again today, he would have to be troubled again." ”

Greenstone sighed, "But this time it's really difficult for the young master, the weather is cold, and I have to run around, I could have come back in two or three days after those trivial things, but now I ......"

"It's also strange that Shijie is too reckless, it's not good to hurt anyone, but he hurt the apprentice of Ouyang Ze, the head of the Hengshan faction, and he was also approached. ”

"Madame, don't worry, most of the Hengshan factions are here to make a good mouth, and they can't set off much storm, no matter how powerful they are, they can't stand the secret decree in the master's hand. ”

"That's right. ”

After talking about simple matters, Li Zifeng was led by the servants in the village to rest in the residence that had been prepared, and just a few steps away, Su Kexin trotted to catch up, Bin retired the servants, and said with a smile, "Little boy, I'll take you there!"

Li Zifeng couldn't help but wonder, "The eldest lady is hearty, not as delicate as the young ladies of other big families, but it makes me look impressed." ”

Su Kexin pouted, "Are you laughing at me?"

"Where's that, how can there be a reason for a guest to laugh at the host?"

"It doesn't have to be explained. I know that you don't look down on me, especially those of you who are from a martial arts family, just because I'm a woman. But what's wrong with women? Wu Meiniang ascended the throne as emperor before, Mu Guiying went to the battlefield to kill the enemy, and She Lao Taijun was 100 years old and in charge, aren't they all women......!

Li Zifeng listened patiently to her chatter, and couldn't help laughing, after so many years, it really hasn't changed at all, and she always has to pretend to be very strong, for fear that others will look down on her. Su Kexin looked at Li Zifeng's distraction, and patted his arm angrily, "Hey, are you listening to me?"

Li Zifeng smiled helplessly, stopped and bowed deeply to Su Kexin, "What the eldest lady said is that she has been taught." ”

"That's pretty much it!" Su Ke smiled with satisfaction, and then pointed to a courtyard not far away, "Oh, do you see that courtyard? That's Cuizhu Garden, I live there, if there is anything to do in the past two days, just come to me, I will take care of you." ”

"In this case, thank you very much, Miss. ”

When the words landed, Li Zifeng felt as if there were eyes staring at him, and when he turned his head, he saw a lady in a dark green robe looking at him not far away. ”

Kochk... Of course Li Zifeng remembers her, when she was a child, although she didn't beat or scold herself like Li Muyang, she was not less angry with her, one sentence after another still echoed in her ears, the smile on her face was gentle, but her mouth was like a knife, which can be described as killing people without seeing blood.

was thinking about whether to go over to see the salute, Ke Zhen'er had already walked towards her accompanied by Greenstone, since she had taken a photo, it would be too rude to hide again. Before Li Zifeng could speak, Ke Zhen'er took the lead and said with a smile, "This is Li Shaoxia? ”

Li Zifeng hid his cool breath in a polite smile, folded his hands and saluted back, "Madame has won the award." Mrs. is graceful and luxurious, with an extraordinary temperament. ”
