Chapter 281 No Change

For Mr. Leng, although he had to face a new start when he left his hometown, at least he was in a comfortable mood, and no one would bother him in front of him and make him upset.

But who knows, the situation didn't seem to improve much after coming to Jiaoye City, because the things that bothered him changed from people to things.

In the past, it was those blood-sucking relatives who were annoying, but now it's often things that don't go well.

But no matter how bad things got, he never doubted the people around him...including Liu Shi.

Thinking back now, what kind of attitude did Liu Shi show when he left home?

like……

"My lord, if you are a family, how can you have an overnight feud? If you argue with them like this, those who know will know that they are greedy, but won't it be said that you don't care about family affection, are cold-blooded and selfish?"

It's been too long, and he can't remember the original words, but that's roughly what they mean.

At first, Mrs. Liu had been persuading him, saying that everything would be prosperous only when the family was in harmony, but Mr. Leng knew that the matter between him and his family could not be resolved simply. If he took a step back, they would only intensify their demands.

So he didn't listen to Liu's words, and insisted on moving out by himself.

Afterwards, Liu Shi didn't try to persuade him any more, and was always serving him seriously, but occasionally she would act coquettishly and say that she wanted to buy some clothes and jewelry, and she would just wave her big hand and ask her to pay him casually from the warehouse.

When Jiang Chu's words reminded Master Leng, he immediately had a guess in his mind——

She tampered with the fruit ice in order to let her business decline, so as to vent her anger for those in the family?
And the money she asked for from herself and the money she got secretly were probably given to her family, right?

Yes, Master Leng has always known that Liu Shi loves money, not only would he ask him for money to buy things on the surface, but secretly he likes to pick good things from the warehouse for his own use.

Manager Shao had told him about these things long ago, and he had always known about them, but he just acquiesced and condoned them.

She placed some things in the room, and he would see them when he went in, and some things he couldn't see. What she said herself was that she kept all the valuables, and keeping the money in her hand made her feel at ease.

Regarding this, Mr. Leng has been turning a blind eye to it. Anyway, the family does not lack her money. Isn't his own woman just to be pampered? It is not a problem to love money. Don't you love money too? Otherwise, why do you work so hard to make money in business.

but now……

"Master Jiang, are you sure?"

Master Leng put down the complicated thoughts in his heart and asked Jiang Chu.

"Master Leng's family should have an alchemist, right? Even if he doesn't have one, he can invite an alchemist, why not ask Liu to make a bowl of ice and send it over, just check it out." Jiang Chu said.

She didn't miss the entanglement on Master Leng's face, this kind of behavior of being betrayed and doing things for more than ten years, let alone him, even she felt cold when she heard it.

What kind of concubine is this, this is clearly a snake and scorpion!
Of course, the premise is that it is indeed related to the fruit ice, and there are no other reasons that Master Leng ignored.

"Okay, master, wait a moment."

Master Leng nodded, and opened the door, "Daqing, go tell Mrs. Liu to make two bowls of fruit ice, and I want to share it with the distinguished guests."

"Yes."

The servant at the door promised to go quickly, and Master Leng also went to find the alchemist.

Jiang Chu found out that there are really few servants in the Leng family, the reason why there are servants everywhere is that they are following Master Leng, and there will always be at least one servant by Master Leng's side at all times.

And these subordinates don't seem to only do one job, they almost go wherever there is a job.

This is also quite good, making the best use of people, saving money, and the atmosphere at home is also good.

Jiang Chu sat down and closed his eyes to rest his mind. After a while, Master Leng brought his servants over.

"Master Jiang, look, this is fruit ice."

There were two bowls of green porcelain cups in the small basket, which contained some cut fruits and some ice-cold soup. When they were served, I felt a burst of coolness, and there was also a sweet smell from the fruits.

But Jiang Chu discovered that the two bowls were different.

Although they are all green, one has a pattern on it, which adds elegance, and the other is a solid color with no extra decoration.

"This is my usual bowl."

Master Leng pointed to the bowl with patterns.

Jiang Chu nodded.

"The alchemist will be here soon, here are the strange spirit flowers and the Yunling liquid."

Master Leng took out two items from his sleeve and handed them to Jiang Chu.

Jiang Chu was taken aback.

"Spiritual Yun Liquid can quickly fill up all spiritual energy, and it can also remove fatigue. Master, please use it."

Compared with the elixir, this Yunling liquid is much more precious, because after taking the elixir, it can only be added once or twice, but this Yunling liquid can directly replenish the state.

Not only the state is completed, but also the fatigue of the body after repeated divination can be completely eliminated. It can be said that it is a must-have magic medicine for divination masters.

Jiang Chu herself has Yunling Liquid, which was given to her by Uncle Gu.However, she felt that the things were a bit expensive, and usually they could be solved with pills, and there was no need to take Yunling Liquid, so she kept them all the time and never used them.

but now……

After finishing divination, he was indeed very tired, Jiang Chu was not polite to Master Leng, and swallowed it after thanking him.

The liquid is obviously cold, but when it is taken into the mouth, it turns into a warm current, and the whole body is nourished and comfortable.

Afterwards, hot air surged up to the forehead, and the warm feeling soothed the discomfort after exhaustion of spiritual energy.

"Thank you, Master Leng, I have used this Yunling Liquid, but it will not be too late to give the Qilinghua after the truth is revealed."

Jiang Chu refused to drop the strange spirit flower.

She did come here because of the strange spirit flower, but the truth has not been revealed yet, and she is not in a hurry.

Anyway, she is confident that this thing will be hers in the end.

But Master Leng shook his head, with a slightly gloomy expression, "There's no need to wait, just accept it now."

Jiang Chu looked at him in surprise, but after Master Leng put the box in her hand, he turned his head and went to the chair, keeping his head down.

Jiang Chu's heart moved——

Why did he seem to know that the fruit ice and the Liu family had something to do with it, even though the result hadn't come out yet?

Jiang Chu looked at him, and silently put away the strange spirit flower.

After a while, the alchemist came over, holding something like a silver needle in his hand, first inspected the bowl of solid color, the silver needle did not change, and then inspected the bowl of patterns...

Jiang Chu stared at the silver needle, but was surprised to find that it remained unchanged.

Why is this!

Jiang Chu suddenly felt strange, if there were other things added here, the silver needle would definitely change color.

But now it hasn't changed color, does it mean Liu's innocence?
However, when Jiang Chu went to see Master Leng, he found that his expression was very calm. After seeing that the silver needle did not respond, he picked up the bowl, then picked up the spoon and started to eat.
