Afraid that Huang Ru would ask more, the wet nurse quickly replied, "To be honest, my two lords, that year … Indeed... There really was a guest with the surname Ji. "
However, that guest only stayed for two hours, and from beginning to end, he truly did stay for two hours. Not even a moment more, that guest truly came and left, and this old servant did not even see his face, and only after listening to the servant girl did I find out.
Rong Ling drank a mouthful of tea and placed the teacup down. The sound was neither light nor loud, but with a "ge deng" sound, it hit on the wet nurse's chest, causing her to not dare to talk anymore.
"Little …" The wet nurse gritted her teeth. "Young Miss."
"Crack!" Liu Wei used his fingers to break the armrest of the wooden chair.
The hall fell into a momentary silence.
Huang Ru looked at everyone in confusion.
The nurse lowered her head and prayed for the safety of her family.
Glimmers danced in Liu Wei's eyes as a myriad of emotions swirled through his mind and he was unclear of what was going on …
Only Rong Ling. He only grabbed Liu Wei's hand normally, opened her fingers which were tightly pulled, and threw the half of the armrest away. Using his sleeves, he rubbed at the center of Liu Wei's palm, in an attempt to erase the red mark that was obviously made from wood armrest chrome.
After a long while, Liu Wei tightly pursed his lips, stared at the wet nurse, and asked: "What happened next?"
"Later?" The wet nurse shook her head. This old servant had never seen that guest's face from the start, and these words were all spoken by the servant girl below. At that time, the old servant was also curious and wanted to ask the madame, but the madame said that her body was not feeling well and went back to her room to rest. After two days, it was forgotten. If the two of you do not believe me, you can ask the other people in the mansion. Back then, mother Su and mother Ma were there to serve the old lady, but the two mothers have long since retired and returned to their son's manor to take care of their family. They are not in Qinshan Prefecture. "
If he was not in the Qinshan Prefecture, what was the use of being pushed out by the wet nurse?
In the end, it was all because of the wet nurse's delay.
The wet nurse really wanted to drag things out so that she could transfer the silver in time!
At that time, if he bit his own lips to death, he would not say another word. The family would be saved, and the Madam wouldn't be able to find her fault, killing two birds with one stone.
Thinking about this foolproof plan, the nurse lowered her head in anticipation, waiting for the two lords to find trouble with someone else.
However, reality was often not what he had hoped for.
Liu Wei could tell that this wet nurse was an old cunning, he did not need to use ruthless means to dig out things from her mouth.
Liu Wei's mind was wandering, whether to force or to tempt, yet Rong Ling had already decided on an idea for Liu Wei.
"Bam."
A long heavy sword was placed on a nearby table.
Liu Wei looked at the sword that Rong Ling had casually unsheathed, and paused for a moment before turning back to look at his mistress.
Sure enough, the nurse's expression changed again.
The wet nurse's face was filled with regret and pain. After struggling for a while, she finally spoke again, "Sir, it's useless for you to take out a sword. This old servant really doesn't know, but … "Later on, some chattering girls started to gossip. It sounds like they were …"
"Speak." The cold, low voice of a man was filled with steadiness and boldness.
The nurse swallowed the blood that had rushed to her mouth and said, "Girls, that customer not only served the old lady once, but also brought many treasures with him. He even gave one of them to the old lady."
Liu Wei blurted out, "Where's the next person?"
There was no need to think to know what kind of treasure it was, it was the real treasure map. Liu Wei only cared about his mother's location.
The nanny thought that they were going to ask about the treasure, so she was really thinking about what to say. After all, in the warehouse, she had never seen the rumored treasure.
However, hearing that they did not ask for treasure and only for their whereabouts, the wet nurse did not say anything more. She said, "That guest only came for a short while and then left as soon as he said. As for where he went, this old servant truly does not know."
Liu Wei pondered for a moment, and took a deep breath: "That guest, have you come over since then?"
"No, no." The nurse shook her head. "I've never seen it before."
"Do you remember the guest's appearance?"
The nanny was just about to say something when she suddenly thought of something and continued to shake her head. This old servant has never even seen that guest before, so how would I know his appearance? "
Liu Wei narrowed his eyes, "The corners of your eyes are wandering, your legs are slightly spread, your body is inclined five percent, and your eyeballs are moving at twice the normal speed.
The wet nurse could not understand Liu Wei's words, but she could understand the last sentence!
What does this lord mean by saying this? Does he mean that he is lying?
However, lying was not something that could be seen so easily.
Liu Wei did not care about the doubt in his wet nurse's heart, and only said stubbornly, "Tell me, what does the guest look like?"
The wet nurse wanted to shake her head and insist that she had never seen this person before, but her eyes mistakenly saw that the sword-wielding lord had actually unsheathed his sword.
Rong Ling's slender hand held onto the sword hilt, only hearing a "whoosh" sound that pierced the air, before the wet nurse could regain her senses, she felt a cold wind blow past her ears, and she heard a "ding" sound from behind her.
When the wet nurse turned around, she saw the long sword sticking out of the wooden pillar behind her. The sword was still trembling slightly as it let out a sharp and loud cry.
The wet nurse could not bear it any longer. Her legs went soft and she fell to the ground. Her calves felt numb.
"Milord, please spare me, this old servant said, this old servant will say anything …"
How could a dirty slave not be afraid of death.
Liu Wei looked at Rong Ling.
Rong Ling, however, just picked up his teacup once again and took a sip of tea. It was as if he did not feel that it was inappropriate for him to make a move at someone else's house.
Liu Wei took a deep breath once again.
Alright, no matter what the process is, the outcome is still satisfactory. I did agree with the old saying: When you are able to make a move, don't say anything. Troublesome.
Liu Wei asked Madam Huang for some paper and coal. After he finished covering the paper, he looked at his mistress and said, "Speak."
The longsword was still hanging above the wet nurse's head. Although she wanted to hide a little further, her legs and feet were not under her control. She was actually unable to move at all.
