Jiang Si shrugged: "It's not bad, it's almost gone."

"Where's Xunli?"

"He is my friend. If you do anything to him, I will make you regret it."

Wei Qing curled his lips and said, "Don't worry, we will serve that boy with delicious food and drinks."

"It's just that he's a little ignorant and keeps talking about looking for you."

"And those Gu insects on him are also troublesome."

After he finished speaking, he paused and then looked at Jiang Si: "So I used some methods."

"You do not mind right."

Jiang Si rolled her eyes at Wei Qing and said it as if she said it would be useful if she didn't mind.

As expected, Wei Qing's next sentence was: "It's useless to mind."

"Who made that boy restless?"

At this time, Xunli, who was mentioned, was being tied up tightly.

It was wrapped around and around with hemp rope, and even the person who went to deliver food to him was wrapped tightly, with no skin exposed, for fear of accidentally being infected by the poisonous insect.

Wei Qing grinned: "Actually, I think you are quite interesting."

"It's just a pity."

"If you weren't in this situation, maybe we could be friends."

Jiang Si glanced at him with disgust: "I don't like to be friends with people like you."

Wei Qing's expression changed, and then he snorted coldly: "Just show off your words."

Although Wei Qing didn't look angry on his face, the way he waved his sleeves and left proved that he was angry at Jiang Si's words just now.

On the other side of the capital, Zhou Jingxuan was busy investigating Jiang Si's past.

Everything is as everyone knows, an unloved concubine is living strong in the house.

Zhou Jingxuan didn't believe it. If this was really the case, Jiang Si would ask him to investigate.

He began to keep looking for the old man who had served the original owner and her aunt, and finally he found something wrong.

The old man is now in his fifties.

He once worked as a servant in the Jiang family for twenty years.

She was not the one who served Jiang Si and her aunt closely, so naturally she had been ignored before.

When Zhou Jingxuan found the old woman, she was mending her clothes in the room.

When he saw the person who came in suddenly, he stood up in panic and the clothes in his arms fell to the ground.

She looked at Zhou Jingxuan in horror as he didn't seem to be an easy person to get along with, and asked in a panic: "Who are you?"

Zhou Jingxuan arrived in such a hurry and with such great momentum that everyone in the village saw it.

A woman hurried into the field and shouted to two men and a woman who were working: "Chen family, something happened to your family!"

"A group of vicious people rushed to your home just now. You should go back and take a look."

The three of them were stunned for a moment, dropped the farm tools in their hands and ran towards the house.

These three people were the husband, son and daughter-in-law of the old woman.

They walked to the yard and suddenly ran out and into the neighbor's house as if they had thought of something. Then the three of them held kitchen knives, shovels, hoes and other tools in their hands. At that time, they took a deep breath to embolden themselves.

The three people rushed in and when they saw Zhou Jingxuan and his party, they were so frightened that they couldn't pick up the weapons in their hands.

Although the old woman's son was scared, he still stood up and said: "Who are you? Let my mother go quickly, otherwise I will be rude to you!"

"I will report it to the official and ask the official to arrest you all."

Wu Tieniu is a prosperous farmer. The biggest official he has ever seen in his life is the village chief.

But the village chief is afraid of Mr. Guan. He thinks that using the name of Mr. Guan will definitely scare away the people in the future.

Xia is the only knowledgeable person among these people. This is also due to the fact that she has been a servant of the Jiang family for several years.

At first glance, this group of people is not ordinary people, they are her head family, and the Jiang family master does not look as majestic as these people.

She repeatedly stopped him: "Shut up Tieniu."

Xia took a step forward and blocked Wu Tieniu and his party behind her. She was also scared, but she still wanted to protect her family.

She bowed to Zhou Jingxuan: "My lord, why did you come to our house?"

Xia asked cautiously. Those powerful people were always moody. She had felt it in the Jiang family before.

Now she was afraid that Zhou Jingxuan would be unhappy and drag their family out and beat them to death.

Xia knew that in their eyes, human life was the most worthless and despicable thing.

Just like livestock, they can be killed casually and thrown into the mountains.

Zhou Jingxuan didn't say anything. She became more and more frightened, and her legs could not stop trembling.

After a long while, Zhou Jingxuan finally made some move. He took out a bag of silver and threw it on the table beside Xia.

This clang sound scared the three of them and their hearts suddenly jumped.

Just listen to Zhou Jingxuan: "If you answer honestly what I ask you, the money will be yours."

Xia Shi paused and then felt ecstatic.

This is not a bad thing, this is money falling from the sky.

She quickly and humbly replied: "Ask me, old lady, I will definitely tell you everything!"

This is the only word Xia knows, and she uses it now.

After saying that, she quickly said to Wu Tieniu beside her: "Why don't you go bring chairs for the adults."

Wu Tieniu immediately picked up a chair and walked up to Zhou Jingxuan fearfully. Wu Tieniu didn't know why, but he was always extremely afraid of this man, and could tremble uncontrollably whenever he got close.

He said in a trembling voice: "Sir, please sit down."

Zhou Jingxuan took the opportunity to sit on the chair. Wu Tieniu wanted to move chairs for others, but Zhou Jingxuan stopped him: "No need."

Wu Tieniu then stood honestly in front of Mr. Xia.

Zhou Jingxuan looked at Mr. Xia and asked, "Did you work as an errand for the Jiang family back then?"

Mrs. Xia nodded quickly: "I did work as a servant in the Jiang family. My family was poor at that time, so I sold it to Mr. Jiang's family for one tael of silver."

"Because I look ordinary and have never read a book, I can only work as a rough girl outside the hospital. I was assigned to my aunt's yard."

Zhou Jingxuan asked quickly: "Then do you remember the second young lady of the Jiang family?"

Mrs. Xia nodded: "I remember, there were only two young ladies in the house at that time."

"And I am serving the aunt who gave birth to the second young lady."

"Although I am a rough girl outside the hospital, I have met the second young lady many times."

Zhou Jingxuan suppressed the emotions in his heart. He was afraid that it would be the same as what he found before, so he said calmly: "Tell me everything you know about the second lady."

"The second lady's character, or something else."

When Mrs. Xia heard Zhou Jingxuan's words, she felt a little confused. She didn't know why this person was asking about the second lady, but she didn't dare to ask, and she didn't dare not to say anything. After all, it was nothing to talk about the past, and she could still get a sum of money. Why? What about enjoying it but not doing it?

She thought for a while before speaking: "The second young lady is the smartest girl I have ever met."
