Clear clothes and immortals

Chapter 257 Miss Li

"No danger? Then what was that thing I just did? Could it be that I couldn't hit it myself?"

When Liu Wenhao heard the man's words, he glared at him angrily and said.

"Master, really, don't you think I'm all right?"

While talking, the man poked the non-existent barrier with his hand, as if to prove Liu Wenhao that what he said was the truth.

"You, you go and try again."

Seeing his appearance, Liu Wenhao believed it in his heart, but out of vigilance, he pointed to another person.

"Yes, sir."

Because the previous person has tried it, so now this person has much less fear of that unknown existence.

Now that Liu Wenhao asked him to go there by name, he just responded respectfully and walked over there.

"Master, I'm fine."

He walked over to touch the invisible barrier carefully, and found that there was no other threat other than blocking him and preventing him from going out.

So he turned his head and said to Liu Wenhao, "Master, you should have hurt yourself by walking too fast just now. You see, if you go a little slower now, we'll be fine."

"Do you need to say that? I can't read it myself?"

Seeing this scene, Liu Wenhao became even angrier. His foolishness was seen by so many people just now, and he was so angry that he wanted to kill someone to silence him.

Just looking at so many people here, did he think about it or give up?

"What are your expressions now? Don't you think that that thing didn't hurt you now, so you are safe? Don't forget that no one can get out because it is blocked, and everyone will be waiting here to starve to death. Bar."

Seeing everyone's relaxed expressions because there is no danger now, and thinking about his embarrassing performance just now, Liu Wenhao was a little unhappy again, he thought for a while and said to everyone.

Sure enough, upon hearing Liu Wenhao's words, everyone panicked again.

Seeing this scene, Liu Wenhao nodded in satisfaction.

...

"Miss, this is here, this is Xiaomi's residence, but now is the time for her to work, she should not be here."

Shuxuan led the servants down to the servant's room. He pointed to a room in a corner and said to Shuxuan.

"Hmm! I'll go in and have a look!"

Shuxuan nodded expressionlessly, then stepped forward to open the door.

"Miss, why did you come here?"

It's just that when Shuxuan pushed the door, another person was walking outside. She obviously didn't know that Shuxuan had returned, so after seeing Shuxuan, she asked in disbelief.

"What? Do I need to report to you where I am going?"

Shuxuan saw a flash of panic in the eyes of this person when he saw her, and guessed that she might be the Xiaomi in his mouth, and she must have done something wrong to do this, so Shuxuan didn't do her any favors. tone.

"Miss, she is Xiaomi."

Just in time, the servant who brought her here also came up to Shuxuan and said to her, "She is a little girl who helps in the kitchen. Normally, she should be in the kitchen at this time. I don't know her." Why are you still here?"

"No, miss, I didn't mean that. It's just that if there's anything, you just need to send someone to notify you. There's no need to come here in person."

When Shuxuan was at home, she was always kind to her servants. This person had never seen Shuxuan's appearance before, and she had a ghost in her heart, so she was a little timid when she spoke. shrunken.

"You are Xiaomi?"

Shuxuan raised her eyebrows and looked at the maid in front of her and asked.

"Yes, I'm Xiaomi, I don't know what the eldest lady wants from me?"

Xiaomi nodded in response, but her eyes were wandering and she didn't dare to look at Shuxuan.

"It's okay, let me go, and I'll go in and have a look."

Shuxuan looked at Xiaomi who stood in front of her, and didn't want to talk to her, so she directly explained her reason for coming.

"Miss, this is the servant's room, the inside is very dirty, how can you go in, miss?"

When Xiaomi heard Shuxuan's words, she obviously panicked. She stood straight at the door, refusing to move half a step away.

"Is there anything you can't go in? Is there something shady inside you? If you are like this, I have to go in and have a look. You said you should get out of the way, or should I ask someone to help you?"

Seeing her appearance, Shuxuan became even more suspicious.

"No, no, miss, there's nothing in it, it's just..."

Xiaomi shook her head hurriedly, explaining incoherently, but due to panic, she couldn't even speak clearly.

"In that case, let me go in and have a look."

Shuxuan looked at Xiaomi's flustered appearance, there was obviously something wrong, Shuxuan didn't want to waste any more time with her, so she said directly to the person who brought her over, "Then who, come here and pull her away."

"Yes."

Hearing Shuxuan's words, the man smiled flatteringly, and stepped forward to pull Xiaomi away.

"What are you going to do? Let go of me quickly, let go!"

Xiaomi was pulled by that man, desperately trying to struggle, but her strength was obviously not comparable to a big man, even if she didn't want to, she could only watch herself being pulled out.

"Don't make noise! ​​I'll disturb the eldest lady in a while, can you?"

Although Xiaomi's strength is not great, her voice is not low. When the servant who pulled her away saw Shu Xuan frowned because of her voice, he threatened her in a low voice.

"Let go of me, woo woo woo..."

Xiaomi ignored the servant's threat and wanted to continue shouting, but the man covered her mouth with his hands, making her unable to shout again, and could only stare at him with resentful eyes.

"What is this, can you explain?"

Shuxuan walked around Xiaomi's room, and finally found a small white porcelain vase under the bed. Shuxuan came over and signaled the servant to let Xiaomi go, and brought the porcelain vase in front of Xiaomi and asked.

"This, this is, this is the medicine to repel rats."

When Xiaomi saw the thing Shuxuan was holding, her eyes widened involuntarily. When she heard Shuxuan's question, she faltered for a while before speaking.

"Yes! That's it. I found out that there were rats in this room before, so I entrusted someone to buy me this rat-repelling medicine."

After finishing speaking, Xiaomi nodded seriously, as if affirming what she said.

"Hehe! There are rats? Rat repellent medicine. Are you telling the truth?"

Shuxuan looked at Xiaomi mockingly and said with a smile.

"Miss, how dare I lie to you? I guarantee that everything I say is the truth."

Xiaomi nodded desperately when he heard Shuxuan's words.

"In this case, can you explain why my mother was poisoned?"

Shuxuan calmly dropped such a sentence, but it sounded like a bolt from the blue to Xiaomi. If it wasn't for that servant holding her up, he would have collapsed on the ground long ago.

"Miss, this, madam, I, I don't know."

Xiaomi really panicked at this time, she was still taking chances when Shuxuan came to find him, thinking that Shuxuan just listened to someone and was a little suspicious of her.

It's just that she didn't expect that Shuxuan could find this thing so accurately, and even told about Mrs. Liu's corpse being poisoned to death, so she couldn't say anything.

"You don't know? This is your thing, don't you know? Could it be that this thing can still grow legs, and he ran on my mother's body by himself."

Shuxuan has now basically concluded that Xiaomi is definitely related to her mother's death, but she doesn't know who is instigating her behind this scene.

"Miss, I don't know, I really don't know anything, miss, don't ask me!"

Xiaomi was originally just a little girl, and her mental capacity may be relatively weak. Now that she was questioned by Shuxuan, she looked like she was about to collapse.

"Don't know anything? Do you think I will believe it? You should tell me honestly, who ordered you to buy this thing?"

Shuxuan doesn't care if she breaks down or not, and doesn't care what your original intention for doing this is?Since you have done something wrong, you must bear the consequences of this matter.

"Miss, I'm sorry! I really don't know, they forced me to do this, and I don't know there is poison in it, they just said that this thing will make the lady weak for a while, so let me take this thing out Come to find a chance to put it in Madam's meal, if you know it's poison, even if you kill me, I don't dare to do it!"

Xiaomi was originally terrified because of Mrs. Liu's death, but now that Shuxuan came to her door, she didn't resist at all, she knelt on the ground and confessed everything to Shuxuan crying.

"According to what you said, as long as it is not a lethal drug, you can give my mother whatever you want, right? My mother has always been generous to the servants in the mansion. Even if you made a mistake, she didn't punish you much. I didn't expect you to Is this how you repay her?"

Shuxuan almost laughed out loud at Xiaomi's answer. She was the one who poisoned people first, but who is she crying for now? Those who didn't know thought she was bullying her!
"Miss, Madam is very kind to us, I know it all! If I could choose, I wouldn't want to do it, but I have no choice, my family is in their hands, if I don't do what they say, my My family members will die. After the death of my wife, I have been living in regret. I just want to wait for the eldest lady to come back and confess all this to the eldest lady. I only hope that the eldest lady can let my family go. I did it alone and they didn't know anything."

Xiaomi knelt on the ground and looked at Shuxuan, as if she really regretted it.

"You mean someone threatened you with your family, that's why you poisoned my mother?"

Shuxuan looked at Xiaomi incredulously, and didn't fully believe what she said. After all, when she came here just now, the first time this person saw her was just thinking about how to deal with it, but she didn't have any thoughts of repentance. Now that she changed her attitude only because she had found evidence, Shu Xuan wouldn't be fooled by such a simple trick!

"Yes, they arrested my family and asked me to find a way to feed this thing to my wife. I really didn't know it was poison..."

Xiaomi was still crying and defending herself, but she didn't feel that she had done anything wrong in her words, she just pointed out that she was threatened.

"Okay, since you said that someone threatened you, then you should know who that person is! Take me to him now, as long as you can confirm that you didn't lie to me, then your family will be fine."

Although Shuxuan felt that there was something wrong with Xiaomi, she didn't want to expose it. She wanted to see what the person behind the scenes was trying to do!
"Yes, miss, I will take you to find her right away. I just hope that miss can keep her word and let my family go."

After listening to Shuxuan's words, Xiaomi got up from the ground and hurriedly led the way for Shuxuan without wiping off the tears and snot on her face.

"It's here. The one who sent me the letter is Bai Shao, who is next to Miss Li, and she lives here."

Under the leadership of Xiaomi, Shuxuan wandered around, and finally came to a small quiet courtyard and stopped. Xiaomi pointed to the courtyard and said with a trace of resentment in his eyes.

"Miss Li? What is her status in the mansion?"

Shuxuan was a little puzzled when she heard this name. This person lived in the backyard of the Liu Mansion, and was brought back by Liu Wenhao, so he didn't know what his background was.
"Miss, this Miss Li was picked up by the master from outside some time ago. No one knows her identity, but the master asked us to call her Miss Li, and the master likes her very much, because Miss Li is quiet, So the master specially asked someone to build this yard for her to live in."

Hearing Shuxuan's question, the man stepped forward to explain to Shuxuan with a wink.

"It seems that my father really cares about Miss Li!"

The corner of Shuxuan's mouth curled up into an inexplicable smile, she stared at the yard for a while, and then said, "Let's go in and see what's so special about Miss Li, that my father cares so much."

After Shuxuan entered the courtyard, she realized that Liu Wenhao had spent a lot of thought on Miss Li.

Although the yard is not big, it is very elegantly arranged. When you open the door, you can see a path paved with blue stones. The two sides of the road are full of weeping willows. The lush branches just cover the road, making people even You don't have to worry about getting sunburned when you walk on the road in summer.

The left side of the road is full of all kinds of rare flowers, and many of them are in full bloom at this time. Occasionally, a breeze blows, bringing bursts of flower fragrance, which makes people feel refreshed in this sultry weather.

On the right side of the road there is an artificially dug stream, the water is so clear that even the pebbles on the bottom of the stream can be seen clearly.

Moreover, this stream is still fresh water brought in from outside. Shuxuan doesn't know how much effort Liu Wenhao has spent on this stream, but even the nearest river is so far away from Liu's mansion. The money needed is definitely not a small sum.

But this can also prove that Liu Wenhao attaches great importance to this girl Li. It is estimated that even the former Aunt Zhao who is suspected to be his true love has never been treated like this by him.

So Shuxuan became even more curious about this Miss Li who had never met before, and she also wanted to know who this Miss Li was, so she had such a great charm.
