In the next few days, Leng Moran often met with Mrs. Xiang. Although he brought Xiao Xixi and Gu Xian with him every time, Gu Xian was still worried that Leng Moran was attracted by Mrs. Xiang.
Gu Xian even told Xiao Xixi that she should be prepared to return to Beijing alone. If Leng Moran was taken aback, it might be difficult to escape.
Xiao Xixi was speechless and was about to ask Leng Moran carefully about the purpose of staying in the Liang Mansion when Mrs. Xiang was suddenly assassinated.
The person who assassinated her was the male favorite that Xiao Xixi saw that day with a strange look in her eyes.
Mrs. Xiang was well prepared, so she only suffered some superficial injuries.
Mrs. Xiang covered her arms and asked in confusion: "How in the world am I sorry for you?"
The male pet who was pinned to the ground by the servant saw that he could not escape, and looked at her with a look of death: "You killed my sister, you vicious-hearted woman!"
Mrs. Xiang was confused. Although she had been warned by Leng Moran in advance and was prepared, she still did not believe that the person who had been with her for three years would want to harm her, and she did not know his purpose.
"Who is your sister?"
When the male favorite said a name, a sneer immediately appeared on Mrs. Xiang's face.
"For a woman who was raised outside by Liang Shifeng, calling her an outsider is considered a compliment. Moreover, I never harm anyone. It was she who wanted Liang Shifeng to take her back to his house, and she did not hesitate to use the fetus in her belly to plot, but let herself
He lost his life."
The male favorite's eyes were red: "It's not because you don't tolerate her!"
Mrs. Xiang shook her head and sneered: "There are thousands of good men in the world, but she chose to degenerate into an extramarital affair. After being discovered by her original wife, she tried to trick her into getting in. In the end, she suffered the consequences. It can only be said to be retribution."
The male favorite gritted his teeth, obviously unable to listen to Mrs. Xiang's words, and said angrily: "Vicious woman! You have raised countless faces, what is the difference between you and Liang Shifeng?"
Mrs. Xiang disagreed, "I'm much better than him. I don't have a husband. I treat everyone the same. And as long as I like anyone, I will take him back to my house. I don't have an outside wife."
"Shameless!" the male favorite roared angrily.
Mrs. Xiang caressed her temples nonchalantly and told the housekeeper: "He wants to assassinate me. Send him to the county government office."
She would not abuse lynching.
The housekeeper agreed and asked his servants to kidnap the male pet away.
After they left, Mrs. Xiang asked Leng Moran: "What is your purpose in approaching me?"
Leng Moran's expression was normal: "Of course it's to relieve Madam's worries."
Mrs. Xiang looked at Leng Moran and suddenly smiled and said: "You are a good person, but I am not interested in you."
"I know a man who my lady is interested in."
With that said, Leng Moran motioned to Feng Yan to bring him over.
Not long after, a well-proportioned middle-aged man walked beside Feng Yan.
Mrs. Xiang's originally calm face suddenly lit up when she saw the middle-aged man.
"Brother Zheng?"
The middle-aged man nodded: "It's me. How have you been over the past few years?"
Mrs. Xiang, who was strong and arrogant outside, suddenly felt shattered. She shed tears and said, "No, Liang Shifeng, the man who suffered a thousand cuts, has found so many women outside. He has died in the past few years. I
It means you have a happy birthday. Is Brother Zheng married?"
Zheng Rongdao: "After you got married, I also married a wife and had children, but she was not blessed and left after giving birth to Brother Qi."
Mrs. Xiang sighed: "Brother Zheng, it's not easy."
Xiao Xixi was listening to the chat between two childhood sweethearts who had not seen each other for many years, and accidentally heard that they both had feelings for each other. Unfortunately, due to family arrangements, they could only marry someone they didn't like.
After the two of them finished talking about what was in their hearts over the years, Mrs. Xiang looked at Leng Moran.
"You brought Brother Zheng here, but for what purpose?"
Leng Moran did not hide it this time and said: "I want to ask Madam if she knows about the remnants of Dayin."
Only then did Xiao Xixi understand Leng Moran's purpose. Was it because of the remnants of Dayin that she had been close to Mrs. Xiang? But Mrs. Xiang didn't seem to be a treasonous person.
No, if Mrs. Xiang was treasonous, Leng Moran would never come to her door like this.
Mrs. Xiang's eyes were as calm as water, and she nodded: "You really found the right person. Liang Shifeng did a lot of treasonous things in order to make money. I have a list here, which may be related to the remnants of Dayin. You can look through it."
He added: "These things have nothing to do with me. I only found out about him after his death. And although I am a businessman and profit-heavy, I will not do anything treasonous. Please help me find Brother Zheng, and this list will be
Consider it a thank you gift."
Mrs. Xiang asked someone to bring the roster. Leng Moran took it and looked at the names on it. They were all people who had done business with Liang Shifeng.
Mrs. Xiang added: "I can't guarantee that they must be related to Dayin. I just have suspicions. You have to identify them yourself."
She guessed that Leng Moran's identity was unusual, so she chose to give him the roster and get rid of such a hot potato, so why not do it.
Leng Moran cupped his hands and said, "Thank you madam for your help. In that case, I won't continue to bother you until it's inconvenient."
Mrs. Xiang waved her hand without holding back, "Let's go. I've been raising noodles for so many years and it's fine. Someone wants to assassinate me as soon as you come here. It really scares me to death."
Zheng Rong noticed the blood marks on Mrs. Xiang's arm and asked quickly: "Are you okay? Does it hurt?"
Mrs. Xiang shook her head: "It's nothing serious, just some superficial injuries."
Zheng Rong was still worried, so Mrs. Xiang had to ask the maid to get the medicine box.
Leng Moran and the others packed up their things and continued on their way on the second day. He found in the roster that many people were from Qing'an County, and Qing'an County was not far from here. He planned to go and see for himself.
Mrs. Xiang dismissed the masked men very quickly. The external explanation was that she was afraid that these people would harm her.
Of course, this is only one of the reasons. It has never been her purpose to raise a good face. She also knows that these people do not treat her sincerely. They never think about her but keep people who want to harm her life.
The person next to me must understand his character, otherwise he would not know how he died.
Xiao Xixi was lucky enough to witness with her own eyes the tragic scene of the men leaving the house.
A group of men stood in front of the Liang Mansion with their luggage and cried heartbrokenly, looking as desperate as a little daughter-in-law who had been abandoned by her husband.
Most of them had no intention of harming Mrs. Xiang. They would at least have enough food and clothing to stay in the Liang Mansion. Although some people felt that it was not good to eat soft rice, they gradually became immersed in debauchery and extravagance.
Although Mrs. Xiang gave them severance pay, it is almost impossible for them to live better after leaving Liang Mansion than they did in Liang Mansion.
The men's voices were also loud, and their cries echoed throughout the sky, so loud that people's eardrums were about to burst.
Only then did Xiao Xixi realize that it was so scary for a man to cry.
She urged the escort driving the carriage to leave quickly. If she stayed any longer, she might become deaf.
Leng Moran looked at her with a smile, shook his head, and ordered Feng Yan to set off.
