Yun Ying opened Manager Xu's closet and took out a porcelain vase with a shadow blue glaze from it, she handed it to Huo Qingming, and said softly, "Yesterday he secretly hid this porcelain vase, and after I found it, he said that he would return it, and he would also make it clear to you, and promised me that he would never do these things again in the future, but I didn't expect that he would run away," Yun Ying cleared her throat, "Master, do you want to report to the official, there have been a lot of things missing at home recently, and even the black jade bracelet you gave to Mrs. is gone, I think it may have been stolen by Mr.
Xu, and now that he is gone, he has to be chased back by the government. ” Huo Qingming slammed his fist on the table, "This scoundrel, I trust him so much in vain, and I am going to tell him about his family affairs after the year, but I didn't expect him to be the thief of my Huo Mansion, Yun Ying," he took her thin white hand, "You will go to Xin'an Mansion early tomorrow morning to report the case, and you must arrest this villain." ” "Okay, I'll go over early tomorrow morning."
Yun Ying stretched out her other hand and put it on the back of Huo Qingming's hand, "Master, it's not early, you should rest early, just leave everything in the house to me." ” Her voice was very smooth, and there was a vague fragrance emanating from her body, Huo Qingming felt dizzy, and in the candlelight, he stared at her smooth little face and slender neck, and a sudden burst of burning heat in a certain part of her body.
"Yunying," Huo Qingming gently stroked the hair on her sideburns, "If it weren't for you, I really wouldn't know how to survive." ” Yun Ying leaned her body into Huo Qingming's arms, her lips came to his earlobe little by little, and her voice was tactful like a kingfisher, "Don't think about anything, just think about me alone now."
She held Huo Qingming's hand, her lips slid over his fingers one by one, and then slowly put that hand into the placket of her clothes.
When touching her soft and warm chest, Huo Qingming couldn't hold back any longer, he had suppressed his emotions and desires for many days and urgently needed to find an outlet to vent, he didn't even bother to return to his bedroom, so he blew out the candle, picked up the soft body and fell on the bed of Manager Xu.
"It's great, I've finally come to this point, all those hardships have passed, and I'm no longer rootless."
Yun Ying smelled the male scent in his hair, slowly closed his eyes, and let two lines of tears slide down his cheeks.
"Sir, sir, Madame is back."
A hurried shout suddenly sounded outside the door, and before Yun Ying could react, she felt a sudden lightness on her body.
Huo Qingming got up quickly, tidied up his clothes slightly, and then said to her coldly, "Put on your clothes and get up", then pushed open the door and walked out without looking back.
Mrs.
Huo stood in the courtyard and looked coldly at the two disheveled people in front of her, although they tried their best to tidy up, but the discerning person knew what the two were doing just now.
Jiang regretted that it was inconvenient to participate in the Huo family's family affairs, so he hurriedly conveyed Cheng Muyou's meaning to Huo Qingming, and then stood aside with a little embarrassment and waited for his reaction.
"That is......
Was she killed by someone else, not infected with an epidemic?
So, who else is her killer?
Huo Qingming muttered this sentence repeatedly, and after a while, he suddenly rushed over and held Mrs.
Huo's hand, "Great, it's great that you came back, so that I don't have to face these alone, do you know how painful I have been these days, Mr.
Xu is also ...... him" "Let's talk about it tomorrow," Mrs.
Huo withdrew her hand, her voice cold and polite, "I see that you are also quite tired, it is better to rest early." ” "Also......
It's okay, in this case, I'll send Miss Jiang first, and you also go to the shower and change clothes, and I'll find a doctor to check your body later." ” Jiang Xixi glanced at Yun Ying after saying goodbye to Mrs.
Huo, but found that she was far less flustered than Huo Qingming, she stood next to her as if she was frozen, and looked coldly at the man who had just hugged her into his arms and was courteous to another woman.
Jiang Xixi's back suddenly jumped on a chill, although she had only seen Yunying once, but the woman in her impression was a weak and gentle person, and this figure standing in the shadows with a gloomy face was almost like two people.
It seems that jealousy can turn a gentle and amiable person into a devil, Jiang Xixi shivered, squeezed out the chill in his heart, and then followed Huo Qingming to the door.
Cheng Muyou knocked lightly on the door, "Miss Yan, you also come out to avoid it, that monster may hurt you when it comes in a while." ” "No need, I'll just guard in the house, Lord Cheng is heavily defended, how can that thing get close to me."
Yan Niang replied while gently propping up Zhu Xiaosi's body and feeding her a spoonful of decoction.
"I'm still not at ease, it's better for me to go in and be with the girl, in case there is any accident, I can also have a care."
Cheng Muyou added.
"It's okay, Master Cheng, please come in."
Yan Niang put down the medicine bowl and smiled lightly at Cheng Muyou who pushed the door in, "My Jihong Embroidery Village has just opened, and it seems that it is about to become famous in Xin'an City." ” "The girl is really calm, she still has the heart to tell jokes at this time," Cheng Mu said and walked to the side of the bed and tested the temperature of Zhu Xiaosi's forehead, "The heat has dropped a little, and I will prepare a few calming recipes after the incident, and she should be cured after eating it." ” "Hmm."
Yan Niang replied with a match, picked up scissors and cut on the wick.
The candlelight stretched and shortened her shadow, Cheng Muyou stared at the shadow for a long time, and finally couldn't help asking, "The origin of that monster, the girl and I already have a general understanding in our hearts, but there is one more thing I don't quite understand." ” "Your Excellency, please speak."
"She killed those children to raise Gu, but why would she eat people's brains after they die?"
Yan Niang cut the wick a few more times, and now the light of the candle completely dimmed, covering her in a shadow.
"I went to Dali a few years ago, and I happened to hear a story about Gu poison there."
Her voice was calm, as if she was recounting an ordinary experience, but Cheng Muyou leaned forward and made a deferential look.
"According to the local villagers, the Gu worms were made by the Grass Ghost Woman, whose appearance was no different from that of ordinary women, but their real faces were of different shapes, sometimes they were a poisonous scorpion, sometimes they might just be a big bird.
There was only one way to tell them apart, and that was, "she looked at Cheng Muyou intently, "all the prototypes of the grass ghost woman are like cinnabar, with red, green, blue, and yellow stripes on the back of their belly and arms. ”
