Chapter 10 (1/2)
Go to the room.
Xie sat on the couch with a gloomy expression.
From time to time, there was a grim look in his eyes.
Chunhe brought a bowl of health soup, ”madam, it's time to drink soup!”
”Keep it
”Yes
Chunhe put the porcelain bowl on the small table, and then squatted down to beat Xie's legs.
Xie's eyes closed slightly, as if asleep.
Chunhe did not dare to relax, the strength of his hands was not light or heavy, just good.
A moment later, Xie suddenly opened his eyes and asked, ”where is the master now?”
”Tell my wife, the master will be in the study outside the courtyard.”
Chunhe carefully observed his wife Xie's expression, but his wife's joy and anger did not form in color, she did not see anything.
After thinking about it, Chunhe asked, ”madam, would you like to invite the master over tonight?”
Xie slowly shook his head, ”not tonight.”
The master is still angry. She has to find a way to calm him down.
Then, Xie asked, ”where is Mrs. Li?”
Chunhe whispered: ”still kneeling in the courtyard outside.”
Xie Shi snorted coldly, without concealing his anger, ”a group of fools!”
”Don't be angry, madam. I think Aunt Li already knew she was wrong. ”
”You don't have to speak for her. Have you heard from Gu Quan? ”
Gu Quan takes people to copy Li Pozi's home. Xie's family has been worried about it. He is afraid that Gu Quan will copy out illegal things from her home.
Over the years, she has been leading her party, making her more and more daring.
Xie has no doubt that this damned fool must have hidden things in his home.
”Go and ask Mrs. Li, how much ink has she been greedy for these years? Does Shun have anything from him
Spring grass heart a jump, ”is the wife worried?”
”Well!”
Xie's face had a worried look, ”let Gao Sanfu stare at a point and report to me as soon as there is news.”
Gao Sanfu is the foreman and the confidant of Xie.
”Chunhe takes orders,” I will ask you
Chunhe gets up and goes outside the door.
Mrs. Li and all the women in the storehouse are kneeling in the courtyard.
Li Po Tzu got 20 boards and was badly skinned. She had no rest and had to kneel. I'm sick to death.
She would be regretful and afraid, see Chunhe come out, looking longingly.
”Chunhe, do you have any orders from your wife?”
Chunhe stepped forward and lowered his voice, ”madam, let me ask you if there are any prohibited things in your house, such as those from the master's study?”
Li Po Tzu's eyes were wide and her face was frightened and uneasy. ”What does madam mean?”
Chunhe stares at her, ”you just answer, have or not?”
Mrs. Li quickly waved her hand, ”no, absolutely not.”
Chunhe suppressed the sarcasm in his heart and said calmly, ”it's better not to. You go on kneeling. Don't make any noise, and make your wife rest. ”
”Yes, yes!”
……
The study in the outer courtyard.
Hand over the account book with care.
He took out a few baskets and put them in his basket.
”Sir, everything is here. Please have a look.”
Mr. Gu flipped over the account book and said, ”copy clean?”
”Yes. The copy is clean! ”
Bang!
The account books were left on the desk by Mr. Gu, ”confiscate these.”
Hesitant and considerate.
He thought that the master would be very angry when he saw the account books and learned that Mrs. Li was greedy for thousands of taels of property, including half a root of ginseng.
But I didn't expect that the master was so calm.
He couldn't help asking, ”master, where is Mrs. Li?”
