Chapter 791： Disaster coming

Chapter 791: A sudden disaster

The two dead men today changed their faces, pretending to be the mother-in-law of the Zheng family and the maid of the Chu family.

They must explain the matter to the two of them now, otherwise the two will find that their slaves are missing when they go home, and they may cause trouble if they make a fuss.

Li Laoer is good at communication. He did not go around the bush at this moment and said directly to the two of them: "Brother Zheng, Brother Chu, we are busy at home today and some small things happened. I plan to talk to you, so I will delay your return for a while."

Mr. Zheng and Mr. Chu were confused and didn't understand what the "little things" of the Li family had to do with them.

But the two of them still nodded, Master Zheng said: "Uncle, if you have anything to say, feel free to say it."

Li Laoer said: "Today, a woman from Brother Zheng's family sneaked into the kitchen courtyard and wanted to poison the soup pot.

“A maid in Brother Chu’s family brought a ring that can shoot poisonous needles, and wanted to murder the princess.”

“What?!” Mr. Zheng and Mr. Chu stood up in horror at the same time, almost knocking over the tea bowls in their hands.

“Impossible!” Master Zheng was the first to retort, “My uncle and I have no enmity and have never instigated anyone to poison!”

Yuan Chu also waved his hands wildly and explained: "That's right. Zhensheng and I have been friends for many years and have always gotten along very well. How could he possibly murder the princess?!"

Li Laoer quickly comforted Mr. Zheng, "Brother Zheng, don't worry, I haven't finished speaking yet."

Li Zhensheng also took Mr. Chu to sit down outside and advised: "Brother Chu, please be patient and listen a few more words."

Even though Master Zheng and Yuan Chu sat down, they were still worried.

Their families are not without foundation, but they are still far behind compared to today's Li family.

Whether it is the holy family, or power and fame, the Li family is superior.

If the Li family determines that they were responsible for the murder, then the life of the two families will definitely be difficult in the future!

Li Laoer saw that they looked bad and said quickly: "I asked someone to check it. The woman and the maid were both fake.

“In other words, the slaves in your house are probably in bad shape.

"We will find out who killed our family, but we also ask you two to help cover it up after you go back and don't make too much noise."

Disguised as a fake?

Mr. Zheng and Mr. Chu breathed a sigh of relief at that time, and the cold sweat on their backs stopped.

As long as you don’t really have an enmity with the Li family, that’s fine.

Mr. Zheng was the first to express his opinion, "Don't worry, uncle, in the final analysis, this matter was caused by our family's carelessness and someone took advantage of it, which almost caused trouble for your house.

“When I get back, I will handle it properly so that no one will be suspicious and I won’t make too much noise.”

Yu Yuan immediately expressed his opinion, "Me too, uncle, don't worry."

Li Zhensheng smiled and held his hands in his hands, thanked him, and said one more word, "Our family has not investigated clearly yet, and we don't know who is behind such a complicated plan. Therefore, I would like to ask you two to help keep it secret."

"When the matter is over, I will hold a banquet to apologize to you two. After all, it is because of our family that we let you bother."

“No, no, Yuanwai is too polite.” Mr. Zheng and Chu Yuanwai said in unison.

In fact, the two of them were not happy about such an unexpected disaster.

But the Li family was so polite, and the little discomfort in their hearts disappeared.

After chatting for a few more words, the two of them left.

There must have been someone watching outside the door. The two of them went out one after another. Their walking was not smooth. Anyone who saw them thought they were delayed for a while because they drank too much.

Sure enough, their wife at home was sitting in the carriage frowning.

Mrs. Zheng has a cold and solemn temperament, and her relationship with Mr. Zheng is not very good. She ordered the carriage to leave without saying anything.

Mrs. Chu, on the other hand, had a soft temper and relied on her husband in everything. She finally looked forward to the master's return, and hurriedly said: "Master, one of the maids I brought here is missing. "What can we do about this? Do you want to talk to the Li family and ask someone to help? Look for it to see if it fell into the water, or if it was secretly drunk and slept somewhere? "

Mr. Chu waved his hands, pretended to be impatient, and said in a rough voice: "If you lose a slave, just throw it away. Why are you so anxious? Maybe you went somewhere to be lazy, and you will come back later."

“Go home quickly. I drank a few too many glasses and my head hurts. Make me a bowl of hangover soup!”

Mrs. Chu didn't dare to say anything more, so she quickly took care of her husband and went home.

The carriages in front of the Earl's Palace were cleared one after another, and a vendor selling groceries on the street corner finally cleaned up his stall...

The dishes at noon were very rich, but in order to entertain the guests, the young and old of the Li family did not eat well.

At this time, Shuiyun cooked some small wontons, and everyone had a bowl. After eating, they felt warm in the stomach, and they felt a little energetic.

Mrs. Li had been entertaining guests in the house. She didn't know that someone was causing trouble today, so she asked, "Where are Zhensheng, Laoer and Jiaren? Are they drunk too much?"

Tao Hongying and Zhao Yuru didn't know what to say to the old lady, so they looked at the good news.

In Jiayin’s heart, grandma is an extremely reliable mountain. She has never experienced any big storms. How could she be scared by such a small thing today?

So she said directly: "Grandma, there are indeed bad people coming to cause trouble today.

“One was about to poison the soup, but the second sister-in-law knocked her out and caught her with a lot of effort. Unfortunately, she committed suicide by taking the poison.

“One took advantage of the opportunity when I was alone to take action, so I sprinkled a handful of powder and caught him alive.”

“What?!” Mrs. Li was startled.

Just now she was thinking that today's banquet went smoothly, but she never imagined that there were so many things behind it.

Mrs. Wen and Wan'er also changed their expressions.

Tao Hongying only knew what happened in the kitchen, but she didn't know that there was a maid who almost made a move on her daughter.

She pulled her daughter into her arms and looked at her carefully, "Fu Niu'er, are you hurt?"

Jiayin quickly shook his head and comforted his mother: "Mom, don't worry, Shui Ling was also there at the time, and I didn't hurt a hair."

At this time, Li Zhensheng, Li Laoer, Li Laosan, Mr. Wen, and brothers Jiaren Jiahuan all came in from outside.

Seeing everyone looking at them, their faces full of anxiety, they obviously knew that someone was coming to cause trouble, and there was no need for them to hide it.

 Li Laoer said: "The two women and maids were replaced by disguises. The real women and maids may have been killed. I told their masters.

“In addition, the maid that Fu Niuer took the risk to capture was also sent back to the village. We will go back in a while, and the miracle doctor Zhang is here, so I think she can get a lot of useful information.”

Li Zhensheng also said: "I would like to hear why you want to be so cruel to our family and Fu Niu'er!"

The more Mrs. Li thought about it, the more flustered she became. She had made many arrangements at home in the past few days, but someone still sneaked in.

It was poisoning, and it was done in person. No matter which one succeeded, it would be a disaster for the Li family.

It is too unsafe in the city, so it is better to go to the village. Hundreds of villagers gather together, and anyone who wants to take action has to think about it!

Especially now that the family consists of old and young people, with women and children accounting for more than half.

If someone comes to the door at night to cause trouble, he will be concerned about one thing and not the other, and everyone will feel sad if he is hurt.

"Let's go home. Let's all go back to Suijintan together. It's not comfortable to live in the city. The wedding banquets have been finished, and there's nothing else to do." Mrs. Li immediately started organizing.

The sun has not yet set outside, so it is not too late to set off at this time.
