The worried old man took a bite of the stir-fried vegetables for Mianzi and felt that it tasted good and he felt better.

After drinking half a bowl of porridge, eating a salted duck egg, and several plates of stir-fried vegetables, the old man felt sixty full and gained strength.

Putting down his chopsticks and picking up a handkerchief to wipe the corners of his mouth, the old man looked out the window and saw a few snakes on the branches, "Butler, let me ask you, what would you do if a foolish child in your family did something evil for personal gain, causing the family to suffer retribution.

"

The old housekeeper lowered his head when he thought of something, and said in a solemn tone: "We can't let a fool ruin the family. If you do something wrong, you should be punished. The inheritance of the Li family has not been easy."

Yes, it is not easy to take root in the capital. Several generations of Li family ancestors have worked hard so that their descendants can live a comfortable life. The old man thought of the hateful look in the eyes of the big snake in his dream and sighed deeply.

"I'm just an ordinary old man. I don't care about anything in the future. Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. Whoever does something wrong should bear the responsibility alone. I can't bring bad luck to the whole family."

The old housekeeper remained silent, guessing that there would be changes in the Li family next, and the head of the family might find the culprit who brought harm to the family.

Jiang Chenqi stopped at the end of the corridor and greeted Li Nianci.

With a false smile on her face, Li Nianci asked Jiang Chenqi where her hometown was, "Is there any beautiful girl in your village? Being able to marry this young master as a concubine is a blessing earned by a girl from the mountains in eight lifetimes. As long as she gives birth to a son for me, I will

You can make her an equal wife, and your family can move to the capital, which means that the mother is more valuable than the son."

Looking at the well-behaved Xiaocao, Li Nianci regretted that this was not his child. When he was traveling when he was young, he passed countless small mountain villages. Why didn't he fall in love with a girl from the mountains?

Young Master Li is really thick-skinned, and he is not a member of the royal family. Marrying him seems like such an honorable thing. In her heart, Jiang Chenqi despises arrogant people and feels that the Young Master is not as lovable as the Third Young Master.

Regrettably, he said that his hometown is thousands of miles away from the capital, and the small mountain village of Jiangchenqikou is hidden in the mountains and old forests. "The girls in the mountains are rough and don't know etiquette. The third young master didn't like his sister at first, and he just wanted to have fun with her. The eldest young master wanted to find her."

What kind of girl doesn’t have one? If she doesn’t have any heirs for the time being, it means her fate has not yet arrived.”

Noticing Jiang Chenqi's delicate appearance, Li Nianci took a few steps forward and said in a frivolous tone: "This little brother is not married, so why not hang out with me, the eldest young master? I guarantee that you will enjoy endless glory and wealth for the rest of your life."

Bai Guo pulled Jiang Chenqi back and said angrily: "Young Master, please respect yourself and don't tease the guests of Li Mansion."

He was not an honored guest, he was just a scholar from a small mountain village. Li Nianci felt that Jixiang would have a better life if he stayed with him.

The flower snake emerged from the flowers, climbed onto Jiang Chenqi's shoulder, and stuck out its tongue fiercely at Li Nianci, warning Li Nianci to stay away from its little brother.

Jiang Chenqi felt the protection of Hua She and Ging Guo, and felt warm in her heart. She looked down on Young Master Li even more, "Thank you for your respect, Young Master. I will not stay in the capital forever. I will leave when Xiaocao adapts to the life here. Although the capital is prosperous

, the mountains in my hometown can make me feel at ease. I just have no ambition."

Not afraid of Ginkgo, who was in the way, Li Nianci was afraid of Flower Snake, and looked at Flower Snake with disgust, "You are really ignorant, go back to the small mountain village and be your farmer, and spend the rest of your life in the small mountain village eating and waiting to die."

Watching Li Nianci leave, Jiang Chenqi reminded Xiaocao to stay away from the young master in the future, "Bing Guo is right. Young Master Li is not a good person. Don't listen to his lies."

After returning to the small courtyard, Jiang Chenqi sat in the main room and invited Ging Guo to drink tea. She asked curiously: "I found that other people in the house respect the flower snake, but the eldest young master seems not to like the flower snake. Why is that?"

Dissatisfied with Li Nianci's rude behavior, Bai Guo said straightforwardly: "Although the eldest young master is a direct descendant and the first child of the master, he has not inherited a special bloodline. The snakes in the family don't like him. My grandfather said privately that snakes don't like people.

He is not a good person. Somehow seven or eight years ago, the eldest young master's aura suddenly changed, his cultivation level increased a lot, and then he was rejected by all the snakes."

Jiang Chenqi thought about something in her heart, looked at the flower snake on her shoulder, and decided to ask the flower snake secretly when no one was around.

Logically speaking, domestic snakes should not exclude the Li family. Why did Li Nianci's aura change? The timing was too coincidental, and it reminded her of the defeat of the General's Mansion.

Bai Guo advised the guests not to be afraid of the eldest young master and to reprimand him directly next time. The eldest young master is a hypocrite who bullies the weak and fears the strong.

Jiang Chenqi smiled and nodded, and said cheerfully: "Before coming to Li's Mansion, I heard that the third young master was hypocritical and thought-provoking. I didn't expect that the eldest young master's character was even worse."

She was afraid of comparison in everything. With comparison, Jiang Chenqi felt that Mr. Li San was not bad. Spreading rumors made her angry, but at least he did not tease anyone rudely.

Li Nianci's narrow eyes made people sick to his stomach, and Jiang Chenqi almost couldn't hold back her temper and punched him.

Bai Guo and Xiao Cao were asked to get familiar with the Li Mansion. Jiang Chenqi did not follow him. She held the flower snake and asked, "Do you know who Young Master Li is? He is the person who blocked the way in the corridor just now. You don't like him, right? Why don't you like him?"

Woolen cloth."

The flower snake shook its head, tail, and hissed, criticizing Li Nianci for his low moral character.

Jiang Chenqi somehow understood what the flower snake meant, and smiled and touched its little head, "You said Li Nianci smelled bad, why didn't I smell the smell? It must be because you are gifted with a keen sense of smell. You are indeed a powerful flower snake.

, maybe you can detect bad people through your sense of smell, bad people smell bad, and good people smell good."

Hua She nodded and said that Jiang Chenqi was right, this little brother is very smart.

Jiang Chenqi found out that she had become Hua She's younger brother, and felt dumbfounded, "I am a guest of the Li Mansion. I will stay here for a while and then leave. I will not stay here forever. Maybe not long after, I will become the enemy of the Li Mansion."

, No matter how useless Li Nianci is, he is still the eldest grandson of the Li family."

She is not afraid of enmity with the Li family. Revenge allows Jiang Chenqi to make continuous progress. She is not afraid of the enemy being strong, but she is afraid that she cannot find her enemy.

Now that we have finally found clues, we naturally cannot let go of the suspicious Li Nianci. Li Nianci is plotting against the General Mansion and will not let him continue to live.

Hua Snake recruits Commander Jiang, who is well-spoken and clever, and promises that if he follows him, he will have a prosperous and prosperous life, and he can take his younger brother to practice in the deep mountains and old forests.

Jiang Chenqi thanked Hua Snake for his respect and said in a melancholy tone: "I don't know where the future will lead. I want to avenge my family, even if I die on the road of revenge, I will be willing to do so. As for you, continue to be a carefree little snake.

Stay away from Mr. Li, he doesn't look right at you."

Not understanding the complex emotions of human beings, the little flower snake patted Jiang Chenqi's hand with her tail to comfort her lost brother.

In the afternoon, Jiang Chenqi followed Ging Guo out as an excuse to go shopping, not forgetting to take Xiaocao with her.
