Aunt Lin saw that the expressions of these two people didn't seem to be very angry, so she acted pitifully again, saying that her only son had smallpox when he was young, and died before he got through it, and then said that she had got gold, silver and jewelry, but she didn't dare In recent years, he can only do starch washing and mending work in the temple to make ends meet, and he has not lived a good life.

Sheng Li was impatient to listen to her, and interrupted: "I just want to ask you, Sheng...do you know where the bones of my father and mother are now?"

Aunt Lin shook her head tremblingly. When she saw Sheng Qingsong slashing at her brother and sister-in-law with a knife, her face was splattered with blood, she looked like the evil ghost Shura crawling out of hell. Her gold and silver jewelry ran away, and these years she deliberately did not seek information about Sheng Qingsong, deluding herself into thinking that if she didn't know, no one would come to her.

But who would have thought that today, he bumped into Sheng Qingyun's father and son who looked similar to his father!And that "female" happened to be wearing a moon-white dress, which was exactly the same as the night when the eldest lady was killed. Of course, Aunt Lin thought it was a ghost taking her life, and told all she knew.

Aunt Lin just works in the kitchen and doesn't know a single big character, so she naturally didn't know the word "Sheng" was engraved on the emerald necklace that the Second Madam gave her back then, otherwise she would never have worn it day and night because she was fascinated by the emerald. with.

But it was precisely because she wore the emerald necklace around her neck at all times that she gave Sheng Li a chance to investigate deliberately, otherwise no one would be able to do it just because of her thoughtless words and never naming names. He will link it with Prime Minister Sheng.

Locking Aunt Lin in the firewood room, Xia Tian volunteered to "watch over" her. Sheng Li saw that such a helpless old woman had no chance of winning against his little fox, so he went to the kitchen with confidence.

Because Xilin County is close to nomadic grasslands, the food in the county is mostly grilled meat and spirits. For the people in the capital, such things feel fresh after eating once or twice. Bieyuan cooks by himself.

Sheng Li picked up a bunch of green vegetables and washed them. His hands that held the knife and gun were also very meticulous in doing such a job. While he was arranging the vegetables, Xia Tian came bouncing around from the door and ran in the small kitchen. He ran forward and back to attack Sheng Li.

This kind of situation has become a routine during these days. Although they have lived a period of pampering, they are not people who can only enjoy food and open their mouths. Meal——If this greedy little fox is hungry, he will stuff his mouth with raw food to fill his stomach. If he is allowed to handle the spoon, the food will be eaten before the fire is even started.

It's just that the little fox's mind is obviously not on eating tonight, so he has to visit Sheng Li from time to time, and when the leftovers are all processed, he simply moves a small bamboo stool and sits by the stove, resting his chin on the ground with one hand Look at your owner.

Sheng Li asked him while cooking: "What's wrong? You've been looking at me. Is Xia Xia hungry?"

"Not hungry." Xia Tian replied without thinking.After finishing speaking, he pressed his stomach and shook his head, and glanced at Sheng Li with a guilty conscience, "No... I'm hungry."

"You don't even know if you're hungry?" Sheng Li laughed, picked up a washed fruit and threw it over, "Eat one first."

Xia Tian took three or two bites and ate them all. Seeing that he covered the lid to cook the soup and stopped working, he walked forward, hugged Sheng Li from behind, and put his cheek against the generous Rubbing on his back, "Master is not happy."

"...probably a little bit." Sheng Li was stunned for a moment, sighed very lightly, wiped his hands on the cotton napkin, and then took hold of the little fox's hands folded around his waist, with a rare sense of humor in his tone. A little dazed, "Sheng Qingsong is not my father."

He has always been puzzled why the prime minister and his wife hate him so much. The prime minister's family has a great career, but there is nothing a fool can afford to support. If they really don't like it, it is not impossible for someone to deal with it secretly, but they want Raising that stupid eldest son, and treating him almost as harshly as possible.

In the previous two lives, Sheng Li had never felt the warmth of affection from his family and parents, and he was indifferent to what the prime minister and his wife did, but on the day of his wedding with Xia Tian, ​​he sincerely knelt down in front of Concubine Duan and shouted: From that "mother concubine", everything changed.

This is the first time that Sheng Li perceives and even receives love from his "mother". This emotion is undoubtedly novel, but it is also warm.Because Concubine Duan is the mother and concubine of the little fox, Sheng Li is willing to try to accept the feedback, and then he can't help thinking, if he has such a mother, will he care about him like Concubine Duan, and care for him and his beloved? Someone is so happy to cry when he gets married, why not make a wedding dress for him?

Therefore, when Aunt Lin said that Sheng Qingsong and his wife were not his biological parents, Sheng Li actually had a feeling of "it really is so", and he was slightly relieved. , Naturally, he would not have any feelings for his nephew.

At this time, Xia Tian blinked and said, "Sheng Qingsong is that bad, of course not, I know the master's father is a good man!"

Sheng Li thought he was comforting himself, his heart softened, and he felt that the little fox had blown away all the frustrations. He pinched Xia Tian's fingers and joked, "How do you know? Could it be Xia Tian?" Can Xia see the past and see the present?"

"I just know," Xia Tian saw that he didn't believe him, and eagerly argued: "Sheng Qingyun... is the master's father, and he is the most friendly in dealing with people. When you caught Zhou, he once said that he didn't ask you to catch anything. Wealthy and rich, as long as this life is happy, as long as he is an honest official, he did a lot of things when he was the magistrate, otherwise, no matter how rich Sheng Qingsong is, he would not be able to use his merits to advance all the way. The prime minister will go."

When Sheng Qingsong was mentioned, the little fox was obviously very disgusted. He frowned and changed the subject, "Also, the master's mother is also good. She sewed your clothes when you were a child. She never sewed by others. And when you were young, you liked egg custard the most, and the master's mother cooked and steamed custard by herself, and the custard you made was delicious!"

Hearing the little fox rambling on about these things, Sheng Li was stunned for a moment, "Why do you..." After thinking about it, he understood, "You asked Aunt Lin?"

"I'm sorry, I know you don't like her..." Xia Tian was a little guilty. He didn't like that old woman who was greedy for money and afraid of death, but this person was the person they could get in touch with who knew Sheng Qingyun and his wife the most. Xia Tian couldn't bear it. Zhu took his own initiative and asked Sheng Qingyun and his wife about the past, but Aunt Lin didn't often get in touch with the old lady and the old lady, only when the old lady came to the kitchen to steam egg custard for her son.

He wanted to know whether his master had been loved by his parents when he was a child. When he first asked, the little fox felt a little uneasy. He was afraid that Sheng Qing and his wife would not love their children, so he secretly decided that if that was the case, then no matter what, he would let Lin Aunt recalled one or two things that showed their love for their master.

He was also afraid that if he asked rashly, it would upset Sheng Li, but he just realized that the owner was depressed, so he just wanted to say something to make him happy, so that he would know that the real Sheng Qingyun and his wife are very happy. Love this child.

After he really said it, Xia Tian was grateful for the excellent parents of the owner in this life, and at the same time hated Sheng Qingsong and his wife more and more. Guillotine, the whole world must watch them die.

"Thank you, Xia Xia." With a gentle smile in Sheng Li's eyes, he turned around and hugged Xia Tian in his arms, buried his head on his neck and took a deep breath. It turned out that he...wasn't born to be rejected by his parents of.

The small kitchen was filled with the smell of food and smoke, and the two hugged each other quietly. Xia Tian imitated Sheng Li's appearance of comforting him, patted Sheng Li's back lightly, and whispered: "My master is the last Well, don't be sad, I'll be with you."

While the two were enjoying this quiet time, the prime minister's mansion thousands of miles away had changed.

The prime minister's wife is crazy.

Sheng Yue withdrew from her mother's yard, and there were still three bloody scratches on her face, which were scratched by her mother. Ever since he asked her about Sheng Li's words that day, her mother has gone crazy.

Sheng Yue once wanted to ask a doctor to treat her, but his father didn't agree. Instead, he trapped his mother in the yard and refused to let anyone out.
