One touch and one silence

"Should we call Aunt Zhao to question her?" Li looked at Yuan Shaoqing anxiously.

"Excuse me!"

There was no change in Yuan Wuqing's tone, so others naturally couldn't notice anything.

Li immediately ordered the maid beside her to call Aunt Zhao over.

Nanzhi and others followed them and looked around the courtyard.

It looks exquisite everywhere, and it is better than where Nanzhi lives now.

It is also better than the ones the princes live in the imperial palace.

I guess the Li family must be quite well-off.

"How is the relationship between Madam and Li Jiang?" Yuan Wuqing suddenly asked.

As soon as these words came out, the woman's face showed some sadness, which made people feel a little distressed.

"To answer your question, it was fine for the first two years after my marriage, but my husband rarely came back after that."

"Madam, aren't you angry?" Yuan Wuqing continued to ask.

Nanzhi pouted on the side. Are you angry? So what if you are angry? It is not you grown men who have the final say here.

Does she dare to be angry?

One word of jealousy will make you lose your skin!

"Your Excellency, that's not true. Before I got married, my parents taught me to obey my husband after marriage. Naturally, I dare not be angry."

The woman's voice was gentle and powerful, and she was not angry at Yuan Wuqing's excessive questions.

Nanzhi couldn't help but look at her twice more.

It was not a big deal to just glance at him, but out of the corner of her eye she saw a hint of pity in Li Yue's eyes.

This!

Could this be the reason why he schemed to kill his brother?

"Second Master Li, are you married?"

Nanzhi's words interrupted what Yuan Wuqing was about to ask.

Yuan Wuqing didn't understand what Nanzhi meant.

"In reply to Shaoqing Nan, we have been married for several years and our son is now four years old!" Li Yue answered Nanzhi's question honestly.

"Oh~" Nanzhi's "Oh" sounded a little strange.

Not to mention Yuan Wuqing didn't understand, even Liu Yue was puzzled.

For some reason, Liu Yue felt that the master seemed to know something.

And it’s not an ordinary thing.

"I think Mr. Li and your wife are very affectionate." When Nanzhi said this, he glanced at the woman out of the corner of his eye.

Seeing that the woman was still the same as before, with no other expression, she turned her eyes to Li Yue.

"Of course! My wife is also a good and virtuous wife, and we are naturally in love."

"Oh~"

Again!

Again!

Her master's tone came again!

At this time, Aunt Zhao came over led by her maid.

With the lady's signal, Aunt Zhao understood who the person in front of her was.

Aunt Zhao bowed to Yuan Wuqing and Nanzhi.

Yuan Wuqing asked the same question again: "I heard that Li Jiang left your room the day before yesterday? Did he say anything to you? Or did he tell you where to go?"

"To answer your question, sir, no, he left happily after taking care of the eldest master's meal that day."

"I didn't explain anything." The woman thought for a moment before replying to Yuan Wuqing.

"Is there anything unusual?" Yuan Wuqing asked seriously.

"Abnormal things?..." The woman thought about it seriously.

"Does happiness count?"

"I have never seen the eldest master so happy. Is this abnormal?" Aunt Zhao asked doubtfully.

"Oh!" After hearing this, Yuan Wuqing pondered for a moment.

"Li Jiang should have a servant who serves him personally, right? Who is that servant? Why wasn't he there that day?"

"To reply to your question, sir, the servant's mother passed away, and he asked for leave and went back, and has not returned yet." Li Yue suddenly answered.

"Oh! Did the servant's mother die suddenly? Or did she die after a serious illness? How long has the servant been on leave? Why didn't he find a personal servant to follow him? Aren't they afraid of something going wrong?"

Nanzhi's long string of words made Yuan Wuqing look sideways.

"In reply to this gentleman, I heard him say that his mother was seriously ill and he had asked for leave to go back several times before. It was the same every time. My brother didn't like strangers following him, so he didn't find anyone to serve him personally. As for how long the leave will be, I don't know."

"Oh! I see! Second Master Li really cares about your brother! He knows everything about this little thing."

Nanzhi's words made Li Yue's face look a little ugly for a moment, but it soon became better again.

"In reply to Shaoqing's words, my brother and I have had a good relationship since we were young, and we can talk about almost anything. My brother has told me about this several times before, so I just knew about it." Li Yue explained patiently.

"Oh~"

again!

again!

Her master must be up to no good.

Nanzhi's eyes suddenly turned and fell on Li Yue's hands.

"Hey! Mr. Li's hands are so beautiful. Can I take a look?"

Nanzhi's sudden words made everyone present frown in discomfort.

Even Yuan Wuqing's face turned black.

Li Yue looked at Nanzhi's expectant eyes and felt unhappy, but there was nothing he could do.

Helplessly, I could only extend a hand.

Nanzhi looked at Li Yue's hands, which were long and slender without any calluses.

Nanzhi reached out and held Li Yue's wrist, looking at it carefully, and unexpectedly saw a faint mark.

"Mr. Li's hands are quite different from Mr. Li's hands. There are calluses on his fingertips. I guess he must be playing some musical instrument!"

After saying that, Nanzhi let go of his hand.

This question left everyone present puzzled, except Liu Yue who had an expression that said "I know what I mean".

She knew that her master would touch her again, and sure enough, it happened.

"Young Master's eyesight is truly amazing." Although Li Yue was dissatisfied in his heart, he had a respectful look on his face.

Nanzhi smiled but didn't say anything. She gave Yuan Wuqing a look, signaling him to quickly continue the conversation.

Yuan Wuqing: ...

Should I answer the call? How should I answer the call? What should I ask?

Just one sentence, "Your hands are so beautiful," will make him stunned, okay?

Nanzhi couldn't help getting angry when she saw that Yuan Wuqing didn't show any regard for her.

"Then I have something I want to ask Mr. Li and his wife. Is that okay?"

Li Yue felt a little embarrassed, and everyone else looked at Li Yue.

Nanzhi cursed inwardly, "Why don't you tell me now! You're making me so anxious. If it weren't for the sake of legitimacy, I would have arrested you long ago."

A grown man always procrastinates. No wonder your parents are unwilling to give you their family business.

If I were your parents, I wouldn't agree to that either.

Perhaps it was Nanzhi's somewhat impatient expression that Li Yue saw.

With no other options, Li Yue could only take a few people to look for his parents.

Yuan Wuqing: ...

Am I done asking?

I haven't even finished asking you any questions yet? You're leaving?

Nanzhi was already familiar with the route and was walking in front. The people following behind him looked confused, except Liu Yue.

She knew that her master would never do something without a purpose.

Soon they arrived at Mr. Li's residence. When they arrived, the two men were sitting sadly on the couch, drinking the black medicine.
