1258 Xia Ming
The Guo family doesn't like this third son-in-law very much. I heard that the third wife of the Guo family even has a good friend, and even a child may...
Master Zhao thought of this and was about to speak when suddenly a yamen servant hurried in: "My lord, there is a man outside who claims to be from the Guo family in the south of the city and wants to see you!"
The Guo family in the south of the city?
How come here at this time?
Master Zhao was very curious: "Please!"
Gu Xiaowan pursed her lips and smiled, the Guo family's speed is really fast enough!
After a while, a man about fifty years old wearing a blue robe walked in, walking with wind, this person came from the capital, this person may have traveled a lot, but he didn't see any dust from his face here.
The man strode in with his head held high, with a majestic expression on his face. When he saw the visitor, Lu Tao was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground, looking at the visitor in horror.
Hearing the man's deep voice, he cupped his hands and saluted Mr. Zhao: "Master Zhao, Xia Ming, a grass-roots man, is the housekeeper of the Guo family in the south of the city! This time, I'm here to pay a visit to Mr. Zhao!"
call?
Mr. Zhao sneered in his heart. He is not an official in Liujia Town. Besides, he has been in Rui County for so long, and he has never seen anyone from the Guo family come here. Mr. Zhao does not think that this summer is really for him Come.
"Butler Xia, you're very polite. The capital is far away from Liujia Town, and it's dark. Why did Steward Xia come here in such a hurry?" Mr. Zhao was very curious. Something happened to Lu Tao just now. , Why did the Guo family come here?
Could it be that the Guo family already knew about Lu Tao, so they sent someone here?
But, it doesn't look like it!
"My lord, there's no need. Caomin is here to listen too. My master and the third lady have said that if my uncle does something that I'm sorry for my third lady, I'll leave the Guo family immediately!" Xia Ming's eyes were a little cold, just looking at it like this Lu Tao, who had been limp into a puddle of mud.
Lu Tao was busy laughing with him, and was about to flatter Xia Ming: "Butler Xia, long time no see! How are you?"
"A handful of old bones, there is nothing wrong with it! It's just that your lord has a lot of style. After becoming a ninth-rank mansion, he didn't even return to his own home, leaving his beautiful wife alone for so many years. I don't want to go back to visit, and I don't know if the third uncle has too many things to go back, or if there is a beautiful woman who is pregnant again, he has completely forgotten about the third girl?"
A charming woman who was kneeling in Xia Mingchao Hall looked at her, and then pointedly spoke to Lu Tao, who was so frightened that Lu Tao hurriedly swore to the sky: "Housekeeper Xia, no, no Yes. Liujiazhen has a lot of affairs, so I didn't go back to visit Madam, is Madam okay?"
Xia Tian understood him with a glance: "Uncle Lao still remembers, Madam is very good!"
"That's good, that's good!" Lu Tao repeated excitedly: "Housekeeper Xia, you just came from the capital, and the journey has been exhausting. Why don't I ask my subordinates to take you to rest? What's the matter?" Let's talk about it tomorrow?"
Lu Tao wanted to get Xia Ming away, he was not someone to mess with.
Gu Xiaowan saw Lu Tao and this man who claimed to be Xia Ming, and when they talked, they had a flattering look on their faces. How could this be a master and a slave? He kept flattering his master Xia Ming.
This housekeeper is actually flattering Lu Tao, and looking at the disgusted and disgusted look on Xia Ming's face when he looked at Lu Tao, it is not difficult to see that Lu Tao's status in the Guo family is simply a servant. Not as good!
That Xia Ming showed disdain on his face: "No need, third uncle, there are still many things at home. The master ordered his subordinates to finish the affairs here as soon as possible. There are still many things waiting for the subordinates to deal with in the Guo family! My uncle Why don't you just give me a chair!"
At Xia Ming's family, Lu Tao, the real Guo family, had no reason to refute anything, so he could only say awkwardly: "Hey, hey, okay, come here, help Steward Xia get a chair!" There was a hint of viciousness and jealousy in his eyes!
A yamen servant lifted a chair, and that Xia Ming sat down as if no one was around.
It seems that although this person is a housekeeper, he is favored by the Guo family a lot!
Gu Xiaowan could see Lu Tao's expression.
The housekeeper of the Guo family was nothing more than a servant, and he yelled at Lu Tao all the time. It seemed that Lu Tao's status in the Guo family was very low.
"Master Zhao, I'm here, what did you say just now, continue!" Xia Ming said proudly.
Lv Tao broke out in a cold sweat again from fright, and hurriedly winked at Mr. Zhao.
The housekeepers of the Guo family are all so arrogant, they all look arrogant in front of Mr. Zhao, and the status of the Guo family is not low.
Before Gu Xiaowan had time to guess, Lu Tao said anxiously: "My lord, the cause of Li Si's death has not yet been found out who is the real murderer, and it's getting late, otherwise, let's retreat first!"
"Retire?" Xia Ming looked puzzled: "Third Uncle, I just came here, and I haven't heard anything yet, so why do I have to withdraw?" It was Lu Tao who rushed forward to explain to Xia Ming: " Steward Xia, Steward Xia, it’s just that a villain has died, and we’re looking for a murderer! But it’s just trivial things, Steward Xia has worked hard all the way, go back and rest early!”
Xia Ming took a look, then looked around, and looked at the people kneeling in the hall, there were men and women, Xia Ming pointed to one of them and asked, "Where is this person? Is he also a suspect? "
"Girl, do you know who killed someone?" Xia Tian said.
Suddenly asked, that half-old lady Wan Shi was startled by his question, and ahed: "I...I...don't know!"
"Then what are you doing here?" Xia Ming asked her again.
Wan's face was at a loss, and he didn't know how to answer this person's topic: "I just...
"Since you don't know anything, why did you come here?" Xia Ming asked with displeasure on his face, "You don't know anything and you come here to delay the trial of the case. What a bold person!"
