After drinking the medicine, Yuan Qi asked the driver to take the mother and son back.

Two yellow points of light flew into Yuan Qi's spiritual platform, and she smiled slightly: Is there any merit that can be earned?

When Yuan Qi returned to Jiang Mansion, he met Li Qingkui at the door, who was Li Gui's brother and the eldest son of the Li family.

Li Qingkui was talking to the concierge angrily: "Let me in, my sister is Li Gui's concubine, something happened to my family."

Although Li Gui is a concubine, she is more favored than his wife, and she is Jiang Zhengqing's only serious concubine, so she has a good status in the house.

The concierge also knew Li Qingkui, so he led him inside.

Yuan Qi entered the door quietly, almost following Li Qingkui.

She ate the melon in silence and eavesdropped for a while outside Li Gui's courtyard door.

As soon as Li Qingkui entered the yard, she shouted: "It's terrible, our house has been robbed. A lot of things in the warehouse have been stolen. Miao'er, everything you sent has been lost." Jingzhao The people in the government are just working hard, and they can’t find any clues.”

Yuan Qi was happy when she heard this. As she expected, the Li family's misfortune began.

She returned to Shaoyaoju and had just taken a sip of water when Luzhu asked about what was going on, which was exactly what she had overheard.

"Concubine Li Gui has taken the uncle of the Li family to find Mr. Hou, saying that she wants Mr. Hou to come forward to put pressure on Jingzhao Mansion so that Jingzhao Mansion can retrieve the lost property of the Li family as soon as possible." Lu Zhu also said Some gloated, "I heard that the Li family lost more than 30,000 taels of things this time, including cloth, jewelry, calligraphy and paintings, and a pair of Ruyi jade, which the Li family planned to use for their grandson's engagement. They also lost it. The loss was heavy... …”

Yuan Qi listened with great interest, and especially liked to hear other people's bad luck. She urged Lu Zhu: "Go and inquire more. If you have any news, tell me quickly."

As soon as Lu Zhu left, Wen Zhuyun complained: "Why don't I feel distressed at all when I look at you? Looking at you, do you think the Li family has lost enough things?"

Yuan Qi chuckled and showed a sly face: "You don't know, the reason why the Li family has taken advantage of them over the years is because there is a koi that became a spirit in the lotus pond at his house. That koi was taken advantage of by Li The family has fed her for many years, and in return, she has blessed the Li family with smooth sailing and rapid growth. On the day I went to the Li family, Li Huilin caused trouble for me and accidentally fell into the lotus pond, crushing the koi carp."

Wen Zhuyun exclaimed, "So the Li family is starting to be unlucky?"

Yuan Qi nodded exaggeratedly: "Yes, losing some property is the beginning of bad luck. The Li family will suffer in the future. The most important thing is that the koi carp is right to protect the Li family, but she should not take advantage of it. Start on the same road. The Li family is spoiled by her, and their appetites and courage are getting bigger and bigger. The Li family bullies others outside and does many bad things. The injury to the koi or even being eaten is her retribution."

Wen Zhuyun understood that Yuan Qi had seen that the Li family's fortune was going downhill that day, but did not remind the Li family. It seemed that she was doing something and not doing something. He's not the kind of person who does anything for money.

She asked curiously: "Aren't you going to intervene?"

Yuan Qi glanced at her sideways and pouted: "If I intervene, the consequences will be on me, and I don't care."

Li Qingkui's incident alarmed Xiangli Mingzhu.

Jiang Zhengqing went to the Yamen on errands at this time and was not in the mansion. Li Guiconcubine and Li Qingkui had to wait in the front hall. Li Huilin also went to the front hall when she heard the commotion. There were also Li Guiconcubine's two sons and one daughter. exist.

It didn't take much effort, but the pearl in the picture was waiting for her. Xiangli Mingzhu knew why Li Qingkui came and was very angry.

As soon as they entered the door, they scolded Li Gui and his sister:

"Li Miao'er, I don't care if you use your private money or your son's money to support your parents' family. I can turn a blind eye to how much advantage the Li family has taken from Jiang Mansion over the years, but you can't treat me like Doesn't exist. The Li family has money and is showing off outside as a master. I don't know how many bad things have been done under the banner of the Jiang family. The Marquis has also wiped the Li family's butt. This time, the Jiang family will not interfere in the Li family's affairs. , you tell her to leave quickly."

Concubine Li Gui didn't listen to her words. She usually behaved well when seeing Xiangli Mingzhu, but that didn't mean she was afraid of Xiangli Mingzhu.

"Madam, the Li family's affairs have nothing to do with you, right? I used money to subsidize my mother's family, but I didn't use the public money, and I didn't ask for a copper from the Marquis. It was all my own private money, and I My son earned it. You have no control over this matter."

Xiangli Mingzhu was furious and glared at Concubine Li: "Everything that comes out of this house belongs to the Jiang family. What happened to your son's money? Your son still has to call me mother. His Money is also Jiang Mansion's money. If someone comes, kick them out!"

A guard immediately responded loudly outside, came in aggressively, picked up Li Qingkui and walked out.

Li Gui's concubine became anxious: "Xiangli Pearl, don't bully others too much! Although our Li family is a small family and not as big as the Xiangli family, we are not easy to bully. If you make me anxious, I will follow you... …”

Before she finished speaking, Xiangli Mingzhu smiled: "How about following me? My Xiangli family will crush you to death as easily as crushing an ant to death."

Jiang Junjing and Jiang Junyu are very big-headed, and the last thing they want to see is a fight between these two women.

Jiang Junyu studied under Master Yunyi and was full of strategies, but he was helpless about the affairs between the women in the back house.

The two of them stepped forward together to salute Xiangli Mingzhu: "Mom, calm down."

Xiangli Mingzhu usually doesn't like these two people. As a concubine, he is too good. How about being stupider?

"You two, stop fooling me here. I won't agree to anything today. Just kick him out." Xiangli Mingzhu gave the order forcefully, and also asked the concierge not to let the Li family in in the future.

Xiangli Mingzhu also complained: "I'm really fed up. I use our family's money to support my mother's family. Now my mother's family has lost something, but I still have the honor to do it, so I don't feel ashamed."

Li Qingkui was forked out like this, and Li Gui's concubine could do nothing. Although Xiangli Mingzhu was not favored, her words were still very useful in the house, and the servants did not dare not listen. Jiang Zhengqing also gave her some respect on weekdays.

In the final analysis, she did not handle this matter well.

Li Qingkui was furious: "This vicious woman dared to kick me out. When I meet the Marquis and see how I will complain to her, she must come out and kneel down to apologize to me, otherwise this matter will not be over."

Li Gui concubine scolded irritably: "Okay, are you done yet? Can you afford to offend the Xiangli family?"

Li Qingkui was spitting out words: "You still don't want me to talk to you? She is too bullying, and you didn't use her money to subsidize your parents' family. What kind of business is she meddling in?"
