what is my husband

This was a blatant bribe. Lu Ting looked at Mr. Shi meaningfully, and raised an eyebrow.

Mr. Shi was stunned by the young man's upright and clear eyes. He wiped his forehead in embarrassment, and actually broke out in cold sweat.

"Mr. Lu, I really have no choice but to make such a request." He let out a miserable "Hey" and frowned, "My family's business is really going to die, but there are still thousands of mouths in the factory. Waiting to eat... As long as the house can be sold smoothly and the financial difficulties are alleviated, I can take out some more and give it alone..."

Lu Ting interrupted, for an irrelevant question, "Does Mr. Shi make drinks?"

Mr. Shi hurriedly said: "Yes, xx mineral water is produced by our family."

Lu Ting suddenly realized that he remembered this company. It had donated a lot of money to a local disaster before, and it was the top taxpayer in the province a few years ago.It's just that I didn't expect that the once brilliant enterprise has gradually come to an end.

Lu Ting asked: "As long as you have money?"

Mr. Shi was taken aback, and wanted to get to the bottom of why the other party asked such a question, but under the quiet gaze of the young man, his brain seemed to be stuck, and he could only react instinctively, "Yes, money can solve all problems."

Lu Ting carefully observed Mr. Shi's face. After a while, he suddenly smiled and said, "I see."

Looking at the leaving figure of the young man, Mr. Shi looked puzzled. Did he agree, or did he not?

Without getting a definite answer, Mr. Shi felt uneasy and hurriedly chased him out, only to find that Lu Ting had already sat back on the sofa, whispering something to his partner surnamed Lin.

Lin Gui's cold eyes fell on Mr. Shi, and he nodded slightly.

Mr. Shi didn't want to pull Lu Ting out alone, and walked back awkwardly and sat down again.He put his hands on his knees and swallowed slightly nervously.

Bribery is not something glorious. If Lu Ting tells it, what will these people think of him?This is not bad, if Mr. He's profiteer finds out, will he hit him hard?

Mr. Shi is desperate now. If Mr. He really threatens him with this, in order to get money and relieve the pressure, he can only agree.

Now he is a trapped beast whose muscles and bones have been broken, in a dilemma, and can only be slaughtered by others.The more he thought about it, the more desolate he became. Mr. Shi's back bent, and his whole body looked like a dog in the water.

He was a bit self-defeating and thought, or else he would declare bankruptcy, and those workers would be laid off when they were laid off. What does it have to do with him?But when I think of many of them who have been working with me for more than ten years, I feel guilty again.

"Mr. Shi."

Mr. Shi quickly adjusted his expression, looked up at Lu Ting, "Is there anything else you want to ask, Mr. Lu?"

Lu Ting: "How much do you know about the housekeeper?"

"Ah?" Mr. Shi was still guessing the other party's intentions a second ago, but he didn't listen carefully for a while, showing a confused expression.After hearing Lu Ting say it again, he withdrew his mind and told himself not to judge the heart of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.

Mr. Shi: "I heard from Mr. Shen that he is the son of a driver in the Phils family, but his parents died early. The Phils family felt sorry for him, so they let him stay in the old castle to do odd jobs. He has some pocket money. I heard that he didn’t go to school, but because he was brought by the old housekeeper, he already knew how to manage the castle when he was ten years old.”

Lu Ting: "He looks very cold-tempered and doesn't like to talk."

Mr. Shi: "It is true that the butler is a relatively introverted person, but he is very reliable in his work."

"Then have you seen him standing downstairs in a daze before?" Qin Yue asked this question, the butler looked really weird that day.

Mr. Shi was stunned, and nodded: "Yes, I was standing under the tower on the west side, staring at the direction of the city."

Lin Gui opened his half-down eyes, "Where does Mr. Shen live?"

"That's right, it's in the city center." Mr. Shi didn't understand why he brought up Mr. Shen. In his opinion, the "haunting" happened after he bought the house, and Mr. Shen and Fields couldn't be involved.

Lu Ting put his lips close to the man's ear, and his breath sprayed over the ear, leaving a burst of itching.Lin Gui turned his head to hide, but immediately felt a sense of disappointment in his heart, put his ear to the young man's mouth again, and said without changing expression, "What did you just say? I didn't hear clearly."

Lu Ting looked at him suspiciously, and whispered in his ear again: "I also think Mr. Shen has a problem, and his reason for breaking the contract is a bit far-fetched."

Mr. Shen and the Fiers family have long been friends, and they must have been to the castle more than once. They should be very clear about the staff expenses in the castle.It is impossible for them not to consider these situations before buying a house.The behavior of paying the deposit shows that the Shen family has considered it clearly.

In this case, why did you suddenly tear up the agreement after living for half a year?

Lin Gui enjoyed the intimacy of being bitten by the young man's ear, and after hearing the words, he had a clear expression of "I finally heard what you said clearly".

He turned his head and whispered into Lu Ting's ear: "The fact that you can think of this shows that you are not too stupid."

Lu Ting's auricles are round and the earlobes are beautiful, looking so soft that one can't help but want to pinch them.

Lu Ting rolled his eyes at him, turned his head to face the man with the back of his head, and asked Mr. Shi: "After Mr. Shen gave up buying the castle, did you go in and see it?"

"Of course I saw it. Mr. Firth flew over to show me the house just for this matter." Mr. Shi recalled, "And I could feel that he was very annoyed by Mr. Shen's dishonesty. I just scolded Fark in front of me. Because I had done enough research before this, it only took me a week to pay the full house payment."

Wang Pengze looked at him in surprise, thinking that Mr. Shi was rich enough.It's just that I have bad eyesight and misread the investment project, so I can't sell it if I drop it in my hand.

"Since the house is yours, why don't you change the housekeeper? Is it just because he is familiar with the castle? But he was only ten years old at that time." Lu Ting was puzzled.

Mr. Shi said: "You are right. There are indeed other reasons. First, he is unwilling to go abroad with the Phils family; second, it was Phils who recommended me to keep him, saying that this kid has good abilities. Of course , and there is a third reason, my wife and I feel sorry for him, and he himself wants to stay in the manor."

"What abilities can a ten-year-old child have?" Lu Ting wondered, could it be that he is still a buried genius.

"He is very diligent and familiar with the structure of the castle. He can memorize the architectural drawings of the entire house. No matter what goes wrong, he is the right person to find." Mr. Shi was full of praise for the housekeeper, "After buying the castle, I I originally wanted to send him to study, but he didn’t go, and sneaked back after sending him to school. Later, I let him go. He is a grateful person, and he has been diligently helping me take care of the castle. When he was about 15 years old, I completely handed over the castle to him."

It can be seen that Mr. Shi has a deep affection for the housekeeper.

Lu Ting asked: "After buying the castle, how long did Mr. Shi live in it?"

"Less than half a year." Mr. Shi said, "It was fine at first, but one day it rained suddenly, and I started to hear rustling. Later, sometimes I could hear rustling even when it wasn't raining, as if there was something It’s like planing rice and beans.”

Qin Yue opened his mouth in amazement, "Didn't we hear it this morning too!"

Mr. Shi hurriedly took out his mobile phone, which he had secretly recorded before, "Listen, is it the same as this?"

Except for Lin Gui, the rest of them approached together, tilted their heads in unison, and turned their ears to the receiver of the mobile phone.

Probably because the distance was far away during the recording, and there was noise in the audio, but they still heard the familiar rustling sound. The difference this morning is that the rustling sound has always maintained a volume, not getting louder as it did this morning.

Mr. Shi put away his mobile phone and said "strange", "Has it rained this morning? I remember that it usually only appears when it rains."

"Next." A soft female voice came, it was Mrs. Shi who had been resting in the room.

Mr. Shi glanced at his wife's pale face, "What's wrong with you?"

Mrs. Shi shook her head, rubbed her forehead with one hand and said, "Headache."

Lu Ting looked at the woman's eyes and frowned slightly, "Mrs. Shi has been to the castle recently?"

Mrs. Shi sat up straight in surprise, "I've been there, just the first day you came here, I'll go and see what's missing inside."

Mrs. Shi's body was full of resentment, but the smell was not very strong, it was very mild.Just bask in the sun, or endure it for a few more days, and it will naturally disperse.

Lu Ting suggested: "Go and bask in the sun, it will be fine in a while."

Mrs. Smith has never been very timid, especially after the castle is haunted, it is often surrounded by grass and trees.Because she knew that her husband didn't believe in ghosts and gods, she secretly went to the master for advice.I have consulted a lot, and I understand a little bit.

Her face turned pale, and she had to face Lu Ting squarely again.

When Horror Tour first contacted her husband, Mrs. Smith was disdainful, thinking that the show crew just wanted to use the reputation of the ghost castle to attract audiences.In her opinion, old age and experience are equated.These young people who are active on the screen are either actors invited by the program group, or they have two talents but are not good at learning.

What she didn't expect was that Lu Ting could tell at a glance that he had been to the castle.

And he might see that he's got something else wrapped around him!

Mrs. Shi became incoherent with excitement, "I had a nightmare yesterday. I dreamed that someone used a pickaxe, and the pickaxe dug directly into my face! It's the kind of mining tool used by miners!"

Seeing that his wife was in a bad mood, Mr. Shi stretched out his hand to stop her body from rushing forward.

Mrs. Shi froze for a moment, stopped struggling, and followed her husband's strength to sit beside him.

Mr. Shi remembered that his wife didn't like outsiders visiting the house very much, so she chose to go out early in the morning to avoid it. Why did she suddenly appear at home again?

He asked, "Didn't you say you will come back at night?"

Mrs. Shi: "The twitching pain in the forehead was really uncomfortable, so I came back." She tucked her hair behind her ears, and looked at Lu Ting hesitantly.

Lu Ting smiled at her, "Just ask Mrs. Shi whatever you want."

Mrs. Smith: "Am I haunted by a ghost?"

Lu Ting: "It's not a ghost, it's the grievance of the old castle, it doesn't matter even if you don't care about it."

Mrs. Shi thought it was okay, and completely forgot her previous suspicions about these people. She went back to her room, took a pair of sunglasses, put them on, and lay down on a chair on the balcony to bask in the sun.

The moment the sun touched her body, she couldn't help shivering, her headache intensified, as if a hand had grabbed a certain nerve of hers and was pulling it out forcefully.

But soon, the pain eased and gradually faded away.

Mrs. Smith took off her sunglasses and turned her head to look at the group of people in the living room in disbelief. Unlike her husband, she had always believed that there were ghosts roaming the castle. Now that she knew that they were not liars and actors, she rushed into the living room with a happy face.

"I'm fine, my head doesn't hurt anymore." Mrs. Shi was excited. Lu Ting is much better than the fortune teller who only talked to her verbally before. She took out her purse to buy decorations at home, and she refused to invite them to the castle to take a look.

Thinking about it now, they probably didn't refuse, but dared.

Mrs. Shi hugged her husband, "Da Zhuang, our family is saved!"

The nickname of Tu Daojia was suddenly made public, and Mr. Shi wished he could find a crack in the ground to sneak in. He covered his wife's mouth and said embarrassingly to everyone: "I'm laughing."

Lin Gui: "Good name."

Lu Ting secretly pulled his sleeve: "If you can't comfort him, don't comfort him." Didn't you see that Mr. Shi's face turned red?

God knows that the continuous decline of the historians over the years has broken the hearts of the couple.Now that she sees hope, Mrs. Shi's eyes are moist with joy.

She couldn't remember how long it had been since her husband had slept soundly.I don't know when, my husband often felt his head in the middle of the night and worked overtime at his desk. In the past ten years, his hair turned gray little by little, and his physical fitness became worse and worse due to staying up late for a long time.

Lin Gui glanced at the young man's hand that was still tugging at his sleeve, it was a size smaller than his own, and when he stretched out his palm, it could just wrap it around.He pulled his mind away from Lu Ting, and looked at Mrs. Shi with cold eyes.

A kind of fear from the depths of the soul made Mrs. Shi lean closer to her husband.

Lin Guidao: "The prerequisite for solving the problem is that both parties must first establish sufficient trust. Mrs. Shi, what do you think?"

As for the couple, Mrs. Smith is obviously better at attacking.Lin Gui glanced at Lu Ting's hand, and turned his gaze back to the Shi family and his wife. He found that Mrs. Shi's face was rather embarrassed, and Mr. Shi was visibly on guard.

Just as Mrs. Shi was about to say something, Mr. Shi suddenly grabbed her hand.

Lu Ting, the spokesperson for the little uncle, went online and said with a smile, "If it was just because of the rustling, you probably wouldn't have moved out of the castle. Mr. Shi, you still have something to hide from us."


Mr. Shi's back stiffened, while Mrs. Shi showed a surprised expression. She was right, maybe they already knew everything before they came, and they came here just to improve the content of the program.The more I think about it, the more I feel that Lu Ting and the others are very powerful. Mrs. Shi pushed away her husband's hand trying to stop her, and said quickly: "The first few years when we lived in, we didn't think in the direction of being haunted. I didn’t pay much attention to the small animals in the nearby woods. But when I lived in the fifth year, I wanted to build a wine cellar. After I invited architects and designers to look at it, I suddenly heard a bang.”

Mr. Shi originally wanted to hide some things, and he didn't want to deepen the terrifying image of the castle in everyone's mind.Who knew that his wife would be coaxed into telling the truth by a few words.

What he said couldn't be stuffed back, so Mr. Shi gave up and continued to hide it, and patted his wife's hand to signal him to say it.

"Since that day, there have been bang bang sounds every night. The sound frequency is tight, like..." Mr. Shi was thinking about what words to use to describe it, "Yes, it's like digging a stone wall with a sharp tool."

Lu Ting: "I remember Mrs. Smith said before, I dreamed that someone attacked you with a pickaxe in a nightmare?"

"Yes." The nightmare was too real, and Mrs. Shi still feels chills when she thinks about it now, and the warmth from the sun seems to have disappeared again.

Lu Ting turned his head to look at Lin Gui, guessing: "Could Mrs. Shi's dream have something to do with the sound of chiseling the stone wall?"

Lin Gui tacitly asked back: "Do you suspect that the abnormal noise was made by the pickaxe?"

Qin Yue said "ah" on the side, wondering: "But why is it a pickaxe? Could it be that the evil spirit that scares us used to be a miner?"

The seemingly unreliable guess made everyone suddenly silent, because they all thought of the second buyer, Mr. Shen who was in the mining business.

Qin Yue said in his heart: No way, I just said it casually.

The cameraman shook his hand holding the camera, his heart was even more surging than the guest's. If this matter is really related to Shenli Minerals, this episode of the show will be a big hit.But at the same time, there is also the danger of being banned.

He wasn't sure whether to continue shooting, so he temporarily turned off the radio and the lens cap, quietly exited, and called Mr. He.

When Mr. He saw that it was the number three cameraman's call, he immediately picked it up, "Okay, why didn't you take pictures all of a sudden! The walkie-talkie didn't answer your questions, what are you going to do!"

The cameraman squatted on the balcony and whispered: "I'm afraid they will say something that is not good for Shenli Minerals. After all, you are not the only one in front of the monitor. If someone else hears it and spreads it..."

Mr. He was taken aback. He was too focused just now to ignore these things.

After thinking twice, Mr. He held the phone and said to the other people in the room, "You go out first."

The staff looked at each other and guessed what Mr. He was thinking, so what is really wrong with Shenli Minerals?In terms of time, if Shenli Minerals was really involved in the murder, it probably happened during the half a year when the Shen family lived in the castle.

Mr. He sat back in front of the monitor again, and told cameraman No. [-] to hurry back and continue shooting, staring at the screen thoughtfully.

Mr. Shi and Mr. Shen also have a little friendship. The most important thing is that because of the company's financial problems, he once borrowed money from Mr. Shen in his own name.

He really couldn't doubt the person who gave him help in a timely manner, "These are just unfounded associations, please don't take them seriously. And I believe that Mr. Shen is a good person."

Lu Ting looked at Mrs. Shi strangely and said, "Why did Mr. Shi say that?"

When she was looked at by those eyes, Mrs. Shi's heart would be very peaceful, and for some reason, she couldn't lie to Lu Ting, so she told them about Mr. Shen lending them money.

"Just because you met a few times when you bought the castle, he is willing to lend you such a large sum of money?" Lu Ting thought, if Mr. Shen had no other plans, then he must be a living Bodhisattva.

An IOU, without any collateral, and never demanded.

Such a good creditor cannot be found with a lantern.

Mrs. Shi glanced at her husband and nodded, "That's true, that's why my husband said he is a good man."

Mr. Shi didn't have any bad feelings towards Lu Ting at first, but because of this rhetorical question, he felt a little disgusted. He even blamed his wife in his heart for mentioning a pickaxe so gracefully that his benefactor was suspected and slandered.
