Marrying into a poor family

Xiao Chenyu walked in wearing light clothes like a straw-white Taoist robe, with a drop of ink on his sleeves.

After sitting down, he asked, "You came here to discuss something important with me?"

Uncle Qi nodded and said: "That day, when you asked about the sphenoid bone, I didn't want to say more, just because it's best for you not to involve these people."

After a pause, he frowned, and then said: "But, I thought about it, since you have asked, it means that you have been exposed to or heard about the sphenoid bone. So, it is better to tell you in detail , after knowing it, it’s best to stay away.”

The sphenoid bone is actually not that complicated, it is just a very powerful killer tissue.

When Uncle Qi was young, he also encountered several cases of sphenoid killing, and he did it so neatly.

Moreover, as long as you give enough money, Sphenoid Bone will definitely help you complete the task. Even if the person sent out dies without completing the task, the next person will continue until the task is completed.

Another point is that Sphenoid Bone recognizes money but not people. As long as the money is enough, he will not hesitate to kill the person in the palace.

In other words, this is a place where there is no moral restraint, no law and no emotion, only ruthlessness and killing. If you fail to complete the task, death is the lightest punishment.

One thing that is certain now is that Qin Xiang and Xiao Chenyu have not been targeted by the sphenoid bone, so they are still safe.

After all, if no one offers money, the people of Sphenoid Bone will have nothing to do but kill people.

But Qin Xiang thought about her grandmother. What did her father's letter to her mean?

Was my grandmother really killed by the sphenoid bone? Or did the father lie?

If grandma was really killed by Sphenoid Gu, was Sphenoid Gu's original order to kill just one person or kill them all? If it's the latter, once someone discovers the relationship between their grandmother and them, what should the mother and herself do?

Qin Xiang's hand shook slightly, Xiao Chenyu handed her a cup of tea, and patted her gently on the back.

What should I do with this person? Qin Xiang glanced at Xiao Chenyu, with a flash of guilt and distress in her eyes.

Uncle Qi immediately noticed the strangeness of the couple, but did not ask. He had a strong sense of propriety: "Don't provoke excessive enemies, but it's unlikely that someone will spend a lot of money to find people from the Sphenoid Bones to kill you!"

Qin Xiang took out a piece of paper with an address on it and handed it to Uncle Qi to read.

"This is it?" Uncle Qi glanced at it, raised his head and asked.

"Uncle Qi, we have a favor to ask of you. I can only entrust this matter to the person I trust most. Moreover, this matter must be hidden, and this person needs to have some skills."

"What's going on?" Uncle Qi looked at the address again, becoming more confused.

"Let me tell you!" Xiao Chenyu held Qin Xiang down and looked at Uncle Qi: "The main reason why we moved out of Fushui Town was because I got into trouble."

With that said, he told Uncle Qi everything about the fire and getting the account book.

This was what the couple had discussed last night. They must have an alliance, and Uncle Qi was the most suitable candidate.

"Yesterday, people from the government came to the door. We don't know what their intentions are, but we are also worried that it has something to do with the account books."

Uncle Qi nodded and raised the note in his hand: "What does this have to do with it?"

Xiao Chenyu glanced at Qin Xiang and then said to Uncle Qi: "Qin Xiang couldn't sleep a few nights ago and found this in the mezzanine when he was looking at this account book under the light."

"Then what?" Uncle Qi still doesn't understand what it means?

Qin Yu said: "Li Siniang is going to the capital. I would like to ask Uncle Qi to help escort her. Of course, the most important thing is to ask Uncle Qi to see if he can take out the things from this place while ensuring safety. If..."

"If the quantity is large, hide it in the capital. If the quantity is not large, bring it back." Qin Xiang's words were very vague, but Uncle Qi understood. He asked: "You mean, this is where all this money and property is hidden?"

"We don't know what it is exactly, but we have discussed it for a long time and both think it is probably the case. Well, there are some things that we can't tell Uncle Qi clearly, but I am in urgent need of money now."

The matter between her grandmother and the sphenoid bone was like a sharp knife weighing on her head, ready to fall at any time, so she made plans for the fortune in the capital.

In her previous life, this money gave her an opportunity to not have to accompany guests with her body. In this life, she wanted to use the money to build herself a strong armor.

The most important thing is that they are now in Qijiang County. The money in the capital has been lost, and they cannot find it in Qijiang County no matter what.

Uncle Qi glanced at the room and frowned: "You didn't value these external things so much before. Why have you changed so much in just over half a year? How many things have you encountered?"

After saying that, he looked at Xiao Chenyu pointedly, with an obvious hint of complaint.

It feels really good to be protected. Qin Xiang glanced at Xiao Chenyu and couldn't help laughing when she saw the helpless look on his face.

Then, she said sternly: "Uncle Qi, my life has never been as simple as it seems. It's just that I was stupid before. We, husband and wife, do not have the protection of our family or the help of powerful forces, so we have to work step by step. , However, once something happens, we will be helpless, and I don’t want that, so we have to be strong and be able to protect ourselves without relying on others."

Uncle Qi's frown seemed to be like three chasms, which contained countless past and unknown emotions.

Mrs. Su walked in from outside, holding a bowl of moist pear soup in her hand. She was stunned when she saw Uncle Qi was there.

Putting the pear soup in front of Qin Xiang, he first said to Xiao Chenyu: "I thought you were in the study, so I called Lu Mei to bring you a bowl."

Xiao Chenyu hurriedly stood up and asked Su to sit down and talk.

After Mrs. Su sat down, she looked at Uncle Qi: "You have some too, and they were sent to the outer courtyard. If I had known you were all here, I wouldn't have bothered Lu Mei and the others to make a trip."

Uncle Qi's brows softened slightly and he handed the account book to Xiao Chenyu calmly.

Then he smiled gently at Su: "I'm here to talk to them about the security at home. Since you are here, I will also tell you that I will be away for a while. Don't worry, I will be back soon."

Xiao Chenyu and Qin Xiang looked at each other and both looked at Su.

Mrs. Su did not see the eyes of her daughter and son-in-law, and was looking at Uncle Qi with a frown: "You have only been back for a few days, why are you leaving again? How long will you be gone this time?"

There was a gentle smile in Uncle Qi's eyes, and he said, "I won't be away for too long this time. I'll be back in a month at most."

There was obvious disappointment on Su's face, but she still forced a smile and warned: "When are you leaving? I'll help you pack in advance. You men don't take anything with you when you go out. It's not cost-effective to spend money on shopping outside." .”

After saying that, he stood up and left regardless of his daughter and son-in-law.

Uncle Qi touched his chin, stood up and followed out.

Qin Xiang pulled Xiao Chenyu: "What are they?"

"Hey hey hey!" Xiao Chenyu smiled knowingly but not in words.
