After she came out, Xu Qing found that lezhou was really poorer than she thought. The situation here was not much different from that of kunzhou before.

After they returned to lezhou, Li Changting sent people to inquire about Li Changyan's whereabouts.

Xu Qing and Li Changting take Tan yang to find Li's family directly.

Although the second lady can't hand over the Li family in vain, she has been showing off her prestige for so many years. It's time for her to know that she has no free time.

To put it bluntly, Xu Qing used to scare them.

Li Changting's face looks as if Li Luocheng is alive. Unfortunately, there is no one in Li's family for a long time. Now all the people in Li's family are from the second lady's family. Younger people don't know Li Changting at all.

"Our wife won't see you without a post or a salute." The housekeeper seemed polite, but he was too proud.

Also, standing in front of such a magnificent house, even a housekeeper seems to have a detached position.

Here the emperor is far away. The more powerful people are, the more they live like a local emperor. They even ignore the laws and do whatever they want.

Xu Qing can write a post on the spot.

"Xu Qing, the owner of Qingting square in Jizhou?" The housekeeper looked at the post, then at Xu Qing, and finally at Li Changting next to Xu Qing, with an expression of something on his face.

Xu Qing sighed: "Alas, the countrymen are really ignorant."

Comparing the Li family to a countryman, the housekeeper's face suddenly became ugly. He said coldly, "wait, I'll report to my wife."

When he turned around, he gave a cold hum.

Xu Qing and Li Changting waited for a while before they saw the housekeeper come back.

"My wife, please." The housekeeper's face is full of smiles now, and his attitude changes too much. Xu Qing suddenly wonders what happened.

Entering Li's house, he was led by the housekeeper all the way to Li's main courtyard.

The second lady is chatting with a guest. The guest doesn't live in lezhou often, and it's rare to invite him here today. However, no one knows his reputation in Jiangnan. The second lady has long wanted to make friends, but she was interrupted unexpectedly.

I wanted to ask the housekeeper to drive this unknown workshop away, but the guest was very surprised and asked if the person who came was Xu Qing. He also said that Xu Qing was a famous person in Hezhou. Today, I'm very lucky to see him!

Seeing that the guests valued Xu Qing so much made the second lady embarrassed. Fortunately, she didn't say anything. Otherwise, she seemed ignorant. Even such a big man didn't know it, so she would be despised for nothing.

Xu Qing and Li Changting come in from the door.

What the second lady saw at first sight was Li Changting, who was bigger and more striking. However, when she saw Li Changting, she suddenly gave a strange cry and knocked over all the tea cups beside her.

Looking at the frightened appearance of the second lady's eyes, the housekeeper and the guests couldn't help looking at Li Changting.

The man was so handsome that the second lady was so scared that she was still shivering.

Xu Qing looked at an old woman sitting in the throne. She was elegantly dressed. She just wanted to decorate herself with all the jewels to show her dignity.

But now she lost all her manners, and the wrinkles and fat on her face were shaking and shaking, which made her face a little twisted.

This just saw one eye, was frightened like this, also too can't help but frighten.

The guest didn't care to take care of the second lady. Instead, he straightened his sleeves, saluted Xu Qing and Li Changting, and said, "it's a great honor to meet Xu Sutong, the Xu family in the capital, who is in charge of Qingting square."

Who is the Xu family in Beijing?

Xu Qing didn't know him, so he nodded politely: "hello."

But Xu Su Tong was very excited: "that day, in the pastry competition, you beat the yupinzhai with one kind of pastry. I really admire you! I've also had the honor to buy cakes from qingtingfang in Hezhou. Your craftsmanship is well-known and the best in the world. It's a pity that I haven't had the honor to meet you all the time. I'm so lucky today! "

Xu Qing, he he he, is a little embarrassed. The other party is too warm. She doesn't know how to return.

Li Changting's face sank and his body was filled with cold air.

Xu Sutong was very observant and stepped back: "please forgive me for my abruptness. I'm so excited to see them here. I just adore them and have no other intention. Er Please don't be surprised, Master Li. "

Xu Qing originally came to find fault, but she killed Cheng Yaojin halfway. Now she wants Xu Sutong to disappear.

"You Who are you? " The second lady stared at Li Changting and asked uneasily.

Xu Qing and Li Changting didn't speak, but Xu Sutong couldn't wait to introduce them: "this is Li Changting, one of the leaders of Qingting square, who is also our big..."

Xu Qing coughed. Xu Sutong's voice suddenly stopped and looked at her.

Xu Qing smiles politely: "can you Why don't you step back and let's talk later? "

Xu Sutong looked at Xu Qing, then at the second lady, and suddenly realized: "Oh, it's my presumptuousness, then I'll leave first, and see you later."Xu Sutong came out of the Li family and realized that he might be rejected by Xu Qing. He was very disappointed.

But what is the relationship between Xu Qing and Li Changting and the Li family? Li?

His father asked him to take down the Li family in lezhou, but it seems that there is no participation from him. It's a pity.

In the living room.

Xu Qing himself found a seat to sit down and looked at the housekeeper askew: "it's been a long time, don't you give me a cup of tea, but I heard that the Li family is the first tea merchant in lezhou. They came specially to ask for a cup of tea."

The housekeeper came back and went out respectfully.

The housekeeper didn't dare to neglect Xu Qing just because of the noble guest's attitude towards Xu Qing.

The second lady murmured to herself: "Li Changting Li Chang How is that possible? "

The second lady looked at Li Changting sharply and said, "who are you from Li Luocheng?"

Li Changting calmly replied, "my father."

The second lady immediately exclaimed, "it's impossible!"

She didn't know whether she was scared or angry. She trembled all over: "he has an illegitimate son outside!"

Xu Qing almost sprayed, "what the hell is an illegitimate child? When Li Luocheng ran away from home, he wrote a letter to every wife and concubine. What's the problem with him getting married and having children outside? "

Two madams smell speech, a pair of eyes peep at Li Changting to see: "how old are you?"

Li Changting: "twenty eight."

The second lady's face suddenly changed and she was only twenty-eight. This also means that Li Changting was a child born outside with other women after Li left home.

When she thought of something, the second lady said, "even if you are the son of Li Luocheng, you are not in the family tree of Li. You are also an illegitimate child!"
