Nongmen Shenjue

When he reached the teahouse, Mu Lin led him directly to the second floor.

The chivalrous story was being told in the teahouse, and there were quite a lot of customers. The most central place on the second floor was reserved by the young master of the Ge family. He Chuan and Chen Shiliu listened to books while drinking tea, with great interest.

The young master of the Ge family is surnamed Li, Li Liangji.

Li Liangji is nineteen years old, wearing a blue shirt and holding a folding fan. Although he is not handsome, he has a gentle appearance and a humble and gentle speech.This person came to Ge's family a year ago, not only was Ge Dafu accepted the marriage contract, but he also had a good reputation among his servants.

Some things are not secrets. Li Liangji said he was the cousin, but he was not related to the Ge family.

In his early years, Ge Dafu ran a business outside and met Li Liangji's father, Li Wang.At that time, both of them hadn't made a fortune yet, and they got acquainted with each other. They often joined each other's small caravans on the road together, mainly for safety, because there were many people and strong people, and robbers would not dare to plunder easily.

However, once again, they walked together again and encountered bandits on the way.Those bandits were extremely vicious, not only looting goods, but also killing people.Ge Dafu was fatter, so his reaction was slow. The bandit slashed at him with a knife, and he raised his hand to block it.Seeing that he was about to die under the knife, Li Wang grabbed him when he was in danger, chopped down the robber, and fled with him on horseback.

Escaping from the dead, receiving the grace of saving their lives, and the two of them had a good relationship in the past, Ge Dafu was excited and proposed to form brothers with different surnames.He also heard that Li Wang had a four-year-old son, and his wife was pregnant, so he proposed that if it was a daughter, the two families would marry each other.

Li Wang also admired Ge Dafu's heroism, exchanged tokens with each other, and said that he would visit Fenglin County in the coming year.

How do you know that the sky is unpredictable.

After this farewell, the two never saw each other again.

Ge Dafu was still running back and forth between the north and the south, but there was no sign of Li Wang. When he asked someone to inquire, he said that Li Wang was dead.Ge Dafu was very surprised. After finishing his business, he went to visit the Li family to express his condolences, but when he arrived at Pingshan County where the Li family was located, the Li family was gone.

It turned out that the two parted ways last year, and when Li Wang returned home, his father died of illness.During the funeral, the negligence of the servants caused a fire at night, which not only burned down the Li family's house, but also turned a batch of hoarded goods into fly ash.To make matters worse, Li Wang was hit in the back by a beam in order to save his belongings, and died in the flames.

After that, the Li family completely declined, and the remaining savings were used to pay off debts.

Li Wang had no close relatives, only orphans and widows, and left Pingshan County one day without a trace.

Ge Dafu felt a lot of emotion, and then turned around.

Who would have thought that more than ten years later, the son of an old friend would come to propose marriage with a token?

Mu Qingyan looked at Li Liangji calmly, guessing a little bit about Ge Dafu's thoughts.

"This is Mu Kuai's second brother?" Li Liangji smiled gently, looked Mu Qingyan up and down, frowned slightly, and then let go. "Since everyone is here, come with me. If you can find Uncle Ge's lost finger, in addition to the reward given by Uncle Ge, Li is also interested in it. I will thank you all this time."

"Okay, please ask Young Master Li to take us there." Seeing that he didn't trust Mu Qingyan very much, He Chuan didn't say much.

A group of people left the teahouse.

Li Liangji had a carriage, but the carriage could not accommodate too many people, so He Chuan Mulin simply walked and asked Mu Qingyan and Chen Shiliu to ride with Li Liangji.

In Li Liangji's eyes, Chen Shiliu was a fun-loving rich man. After all, he would inquire about many things when dealing with these police officers. Chen Shiliu's matter was not a secret, and there were various speculations from the outside world.However, looking at Mu Qingyan recommended by He Chuan... he has a calm demeanor, but he is only fifteen years old, how can he really have the ability?

Li Liangji had heard about the case of the flower picker, and thought it was probably luck.

But it doesn't matter, the result is not important, he just wants to show his attitude to the Ge family father and daughter.

The Ge family's house is very big, and the carriage didn't stop until it entered the gate.

Li Liangji looked at several people: "I think you all know the cause and effect of this matter, so I won't go into details. I greeted Uncle Ge about your visit today, but Uncle Ge is in a bad mood recently, so I won't see you all."

He Chuan and others said, "Don't dare to disturb Master Ge."

Mu Qingyan looked around casually, and said, "Young Master Li, I probably know the matter, but I want to hear more details. Please tell me about Master Ge's actions that day in detail, and make sure to pull your fingers at the banquet where guests are invited." Still there? Where is the banquet place? Where did Master Ge go after that? When he found that the finger was missing, when exactly? What did the servants say?"

Li Liangji was stunned for a moment, but he answered cooperatively.

As Mu Qingyan listened, he unleashed his spiritual power to cover the entire Ge family, peeking into the layout of the house clearly.

"Go to the flower hall where the guests were entertained first." Mu Qingyan has not gone back in time at this time, so in addition to looking at the layout of the house, the focus is to observe the expressions of the members of the Ge family and their conversations, trying to find clues.

Was the wrench stolen?Or was it dropped somewhere by Ge Dafu's negligence?

Or...Ge Dafu deliberately arranged to test Li Liangji?

Many speculations flashed one by one, without revealing anything on the surface.

The flower hall for banquets is built in the garden.

It's the end of spring now, but there are many flowers and plants in the garden of Ge's family. The spring flowers are not exhausted and the summer flowers are enough. It is very interesting to sit in the flower hall to drink and enjoy the flowers.Ge Dafu can read and write, but he can't be called a scholar, he doesn't know poetry, and naturally he doesn't know elegance.This garden is a place where Miss Ge's family often comes. Ge Dafu is fond of his daughter and has collected many famous flowers and herbs.

"The banquet was held here that day." Li Liangji pointed to the flower hall and said: "During the banquet, Uncle Ge accompanied the guests to stroll around the garden, and basically walked through this garden once."

Afterwards, looking for the thumb, the garden is naturally the top priority, but unfortunately nothing is found.

Chen Shiliu leaned over: "Second brother of the Mu family, how can we find him?"

Mu Qingyan didn't speak. He seemed to be walking around the flower hall at a slow pace, and then came out to walk along the path in the garden. In fact, he had activated his supernatural ability and began to travel back in time, recreating the scene of the banquet.

In an instant, the scene in front of him was already different from the reality——

Ge Dafu entertained old friends from the shopping mall, with delicious food and wine, and a small show. The people at the table chatted and laughed, and went out of the flower hall to enjoy the flowers in the garden.

Mu Qingyan locked onto the wrench in Ge Dafu's hand, it was green with white, and the color was just average.Following the pace of Ge Dafu and others' actions, after visiting the garden, the finger is still on Ge Dafu's hand.Until the guests were sent away, Ge Dafu was drunk and was escorted back to his room by his servants to rest.

It's no wonder that the servants of Ge's family didn't search carefully, the finger puller didn't fall in the garden at all.

Mu Qingyan stepped out of the garden.

Chen Shiliu and the others saw him walking around the garden without checking carefully, and then went out.A few people were confused, but he seemed to be very focused and didn't bother him hastily.

Mu Qingyan stopped in the middle of his journey.

During the time period of the retrospective, there happened to be two maids coming towards them. Since there was no one else nearby, the maids didn't hesitate to speak.It stands to reason that what they said had nothing to do with him, but the mention of Li Liangji was a bit interesting.

"Just now, Young Master Li sent something to the young lady again, but the young lady still didn't see her, so she just accepted the things."

"Master Li is very good, but he is a bit poor, but our master is going to invite his son-in-law to come to the house. It's not just a coincidence that Master Li has no relatives for no reason. He is a poor relative who has never come to fight the autumn wind. I think the master likes Li very much. Young master, let him take care of the business, but our lady seems to look down on him."

"I heard that Miss has someone in mind."

"Don't talk nonsense! It's worth spreading the word."

"I don't dare to talk nonsense. Although I don't know who it is, several people know about it. I'm afraid that after a long time, Young Master Li will also know about it."

The reason why Mu Qingyan paid attention to Li Liangji was not because of anything else, but from the moment he saw Li Liangji, he felt that this man was scheming.It's not great, and it can fool some people, but people like Ge Dafu may not be able to see Li Liangji's true temperament, but perhaps because of this, Ge Dafu is attracted to this baby.

Li Liangji acted like a humble and gentle person, who was able to find everything, but in fact he had calculations and tricks in his heart.In the eyes of Miss Ge's family, he may be a hypocrite and annoying, but in the eyes of a businessman like Ge Dafu, he is a worthy businessman.

Mu Qingyan saw ambitions, desires, and secrets in Li Liangji's eyes.

His senses had always been sharp when it came to capturing secrets.

Converge your miscellaneous thoughts and continue to explore.

Ge Dafu was not in the bedroom, but he sent someone to tell him that he could go in and take a look.

Standing in the bedroom, he saw that Ge Dafu was drunk and asleep that day, during which all the maids were outside the door, and only one person came in.The identity of this person was really unexpected, and what was even more surprising was her behavior.

To cover up, Mu Qingyan deliberately asked: "Young Master Li, Master Ge went back to his room to rest that day, did anyone enter the room?"

"No, Uncle Ge doesn't like servants to gather around, especially when sleeping." Li Liangji replied without thinking.

Mu Qingyan smiled, and asked the servant girl here: "No one really came in that day?"

The servant girl looked hesitant: "Just, Miss came in."

Li Liangji smiled and said: "Yes, the eldest sister came here. She heard that Uncle Ge drank too much and was worried, so she came to see it and gave him a bowl of hangover soup. Only the eldest sister can't take Uncle Ge's finger wrench. "

Under common sense, Ms. Ge would not take her father's finger, but an accident happened that day.

Ms. Ge fed her father some hangover soup, and wiped his face and hands with a handkerchief. When she was wiping his hands, she accidentally slipped her finger and broke it when it fell on the ground.

Things like jade can't touch hard objects, but whether it breaks or not depends on luck.Ge Dafu used to block knives with his fingers before, and he wore it for many years, and it slipped twice, but at most there was a small crack, and Ge Dafu used gold to trace it.

The floor of the bedroom was paved with blue bricks, and the finger fell and broke into two with almost no sound.

Miss Ge was dumbfounded.

Ge Dafu was still sleeping soundly. After hesitating, Ms. Ge wrapped the finger with a handkerchief and left the bedroom.

Mu Qingyan thought for a while, then smiled lightly: "I roughly know the whereabouts of Tengzhi, but I want to tell Miss Ge personally. Please, Young Master Li, send someone to pass on a message."
