Mingwei picked up the tea cup and touched his lower lip, a little disgusted: "It's already cold."
Ji Xiaowu automatically and consciously boiled water.
Mingwei then put down the tea cup and said, "We went to Lanxinyuan and found a thief. That's what happened."
The veins on Tang Xi's forehead twitched.
"Why did you go to Lanxinyuan? Miss Mingqi, you live in the inner courtyard and cousin Ling lives in the outer courtyard. Why did you appear together in Lanxinyuan? Doesn't this need an explanation?"
"As you can see, my cousin sneaked in, and I sneaked out, so we met in Lanxinyuan." Mingwei answered very insincerely and confidently, as if he didn't seem to feel at all that he was breaking into someone else's house in the middle of the night.
Walls are a thing.
Tang Xi took a deep breath, suppressed his emotions, and said, "Miss Mingqi, please speak human language!"
The pronunciation of the word "please" is particularly strong, which shows that Mr. Tang Shi has reached the limit of his patience.
Mingwei couldn't help but laugh.
"Then please let me start, Mr. Tang Shi. I haven't read much, so I don't know where to start."
What does this have to do with reading...
Tang Xi didn't want to ask her to avoid it, so he had to follow her topic: "First, tell me why you met in Lanxinyuan, have you made an appointment?"
Mingwei shook his head: "No, this was an accident."
"oh?"
"To be honest, after today's ritual, I had doubts about Lan Xinyuan, so I asked my cousin to keep an eye on her. Then my cousin found out there was a problem, so he called me out..."
"Wait a minute." Tang Xi raised his hand and asked her, "How did you get in touch with Mr. Ji?"
Ming smiled insincerely: "It's a small trick, Master Shi, don't go into it too much. It's just a little trick that our cousins usually play."
She quickly ignored it: "We found out that there was something wrong with Lan Xinyuan, so we climbed over the wall with Haiyan, and met a man. This man was very skilled in martial arts, and Haiyan was no match, so I called to catch the thief. This is
All that happened."
Tang Xi twitched the corner of his mouth.
This way of speaking clearly omits the most crucial things.
"Miss Mingqi!"
Hearing his warning tone, Mingwei smiled sincerely: "Master Ten is not a member of Xuanmen. This is really hard to explain. Now, one of our cousins has lost all his skills and the other is seriously injured. This is a fact. Ten
If you don’t believe it, you can ask Haiyan if we didn’t take action just now? Because we really can’t fight, we can only call people over.”
Tang Xi realized that if he continued to entangle with her, the matter would become unclear, so he made a prompt decision, returned to his own rhythm, and took the lead in the topic.
"So, you suspected something was wrong with Lan Xinyuan during the day?"
"Yes." Mingwei looked cute and answered whatever he asked. "As soon as the nightmare escaped, I felt that someone might be lurking in the Tang family."
"And it's Lan Xinyuan you're suspicious of?"
"right."
Tang Xi frowned and said, "This is impossible. My mother had this disease several years ago, but Miss Ling just got it."
Mingwei said: "This thing doesn't need someone to guide it all the time. It just needs to be attached to the old lady. Maybe they did it a few years ago. It's like spreading a seed and waiting for it to sprout."
A day of twigs.”
Tang Xi still felt it didn't make sense: "What reason did the Ling family have to do this to the old lady? Even if it was the eldest brother or anyone else, it would make sense. Mother is just an old lady enjoying her old age, and she doesn't even care about the family affairs."
Mingwei said slyly: "I only said that the person guiding him is most likely in Lanxinyuan, but I didn't say that he must be a member of the Ling family. Besides, many things are not revealed until the moment they are exposed. Who can say the exact motive?"
Tang Xi glanced at her and thought, there is no one else in Lan Xinyuan except the Ling family. How is this different from blaming the Ling family?
"And the facts have proven that I was right." Ming Wei continued, "The person who attacked Haiyan just now, even if he is not the real murderer, is at least an accomplice. This person is in Lanxinyuan, so Mr. Tang Shi should be more careful.
Your wedding is coming soon, and it will be terrible if something goes wrong for the bride."
"..."
Tang Xi pondered for a long time and said, "Is that person hiding in the Ling family's funeral procession?"
"It's possible." Mingwei smiled reassuringly, "After all, the Ling family has quite a few people, including more than a dozen maids. Although the master has a better chance of attacking the old lady, he can't say for sure.
Was it the maid and servant who did it?"
"...What are you implying?"
Mingwei blinked: "Why do you think so much, Master Shi? I'm just telling the truth."
Tang Xi thought to himself and said in a roundabout way that the master of the Ling family is more likely to take action. Doesn't this imply anything?
However, if you think about it carefully, that seems to be the case.
My mother had been manipulated a few years ago, and it was also a few years ago that the Ling family and the Tang family decided to get married...
etc!
Marriage, how many years ago?
If you say that... is the other party just waiting for this opportunity?
Opportunity to send your bride off!
What do they want to do? What do they do to the Tang family through the marriage?
Haiyan's voice came from outside the door: "Master Ten, the midnight snack is here."
"Come in!"
Haiyan came in with a food box and saw that the atmosphere in the house was peaceful.
Ji Xiaowu was lazily lying on the table playing with the wick, Mingwei was drinking tea elegantly, and Tang Xi looked thoughtful.
Haiyan put all kinds of hot food on the table, and Ji Xiaowu immediately came to life.
"Silver noodles! I want to eat this. Cousin, what do you want to eat? Hey, these five-color dumplings are beautiful, and hey, the fish ball soup is also delicious!"
"Cousin, please eat less. It's so late and you can't feel your appetite after eating."
"I've been busy with so many things tonight, I'm starving to death, and I still don't think I have enough to eat!"
"Why don't you just climb a wall? The fight is for Haiyan."
"Oh, I've been staring for so long, what's wrong with eating more?"
In the midst of the quarrel, Tang Xi finally figured out something and let out a breath.
"It's already so late, you two should go back and rest early!"
After saying that, he called the boy and said, "See you off!"
Ji Xiaowu was dumbfounded: "Hey, I only took two bites!"
The boy doesn't care whether he eats or not. Anyway, Master Shi said so, so please go out!
Ji Xiaowu could only pick up the remaining steamed dumplings to cushion his stomach.
Why is this Mr. Tang so stingy? How can he not ask for food but refuse to eat it?
Eat alone and suffocate him to death, hum!
Mingwei lazily walked out of the house and said to Haiyan: "Let's go back. If the snow parrot wakes up and can't see us, we will definitely be in a hurry."
Ji Xiaowu was unhappy: "Well, you Ming Xiaoqi! You got through this, are you happy? No matter what, I haven't eaten enough and I feel uncomfortable!"
"Cousin, I'll teach you a trick and you'll definitely be full."
"What method?"
"You go out from here to that intersection, then stand with your back to the wall and open your mouth."
"What?"
"Drink the northwest wind! I'm sure you'll be full!"
"Ming Xiaoqi!"
"Hahahaha, it's so late, go to bed quickly, won't you be able to eat it tomorrow morning?"
