The Golden Age Chapter 496: The white shadow under the plane tree
Wei Bi heard that Qin Xiao went to see the water well and his face changed color. Butler Wei felt something was wrong and whispered: "He just looked at the water well and didn't say much."
The steward Wei observed his words and expressions, and saw that Wei Bi's expression was wrong, and immediately he dared not tell Qin Xiao's words by the well.
"What did he not say?" Wei Bi asked.
Steward Wei felt a little guilty in his heart, and faintly felt that there seemed to be some problems with him taking Qin Xiao to see the well. At this time, he could only bite the bullet and said: "Nothing to say."
On hearing this, Wei Bi's cold expression eased.
"Qin Xiao suddenly came to the mansion with Gu Qiuniang, what are the plans?" Wei Bi frowned, "He has no relationship with our Wei family, and has no relationship with the Song family. How can he come forward?"
"Master, the old slave feels that the relationship between Qin Xiao and Gu Qiuniang is quite close." The steward Wei thought for a while before whispering: "If the old slave is right, Qin Xiao might have fallen in love with Gu Qiuniang. Master. I just said that Qin Xiao rushed to Qingyitang alone just for a Gu Qiuniang. If he didn’t mean Gu Qiuniang, how could he give up his life and go to Qingyitang?"
Wei Bi nodded slightly and said, "Naturally, these two people have something to do with each other."
"The old slave thought that after Gu Qiuniang told Qin Xiao about his wife, Qin Xiao took the initiative to help Gu Qiuniang in order to please Gu Qiuniang." Steward Wei's analysis said: "Qin Xiao may really know some medical skills, I feel that If he can diagnose and treat his wife, Gu Qiuniang will definitely be grateful to him, so the relationship between the two will be closer. It is just that his medical skills are mediocre. After he comes, he knows that he can't heal, so he uses mystery. All the purpose is nothing but Gu Qiuniang. ."
Wei Bi hesitated for a moment, and then said: "What you said is not unreasonable." His expression became stern, and he whispered: "I have come to this point. Don't lose money. This matter concerns me. If the future of the Wei family is successful, I will also be able to shine and shine. In the future, my Wei family will also be able to stand out."
"Master, don't worry, there will never be any problems." The housekeeper Wei smiled: "After some more time, you will be done. The latter will be handled cleanly by the old slave."
"You must be cautious about that person's whereabouts, and you must not let anyone see the clues." Wei Bi whispered: "Song Shilian is not a wine bag and rice bag. I think his words today should be a bit suspicious, so this is the case. It must be foolproof. If Song Shilian sees the flaws, the consequences will be disastrous."
Guardian Wei nodded and said: "Master, that person's whereabouts are extremely secretive, and no one will know."
Wei Bi's brows stretched slightly, and he whispered: "After Gu Qiuniang comes over, she must treat her face well, but always pay attention to this woman's movements and don't let her see anything. Also, if Qin Xiao comes over again, Don't let him come into contact with his wife, let alone walk around in the house. If he wants to ask anything, don't say a word to him." Raising his hand and stroking the beautiful little beard, he said coldly: "It's not at the last moment. The horse stumbles."
The steward Wei nodded again and again, thinking that fortunately, he didn't tell the master what Qin Xiao asked about him, otherwise the master would definitely be a bad curse.
"Don't prepare my meals tonight." Wei Bi whispered: "I won't be in the house tonight, and I won't be back tonight."
"The old slave understands." Steward Wei respectfully said, leaning closer and whispering: "Master, would it be troublesome if you really let Gu Qiuniang take care of your wife? Should you just refuse?"
"Naturally not.
" Wei Bi immediately shook his head, and said solemnly: "Gu Qiuniang and his wife had a very deep personal relationship. Song Shilian knew everything about it. Gu Qiuniang took the initiative to take care of it. If we refused, Song Shilian would be suspicious. Let Gu Qiuniang stay in the mansion, and then she will also see the resentful spirit, but it can prove that there is indeed a resentful spirit in the Wei mansion. "
The steward Wei's eyes lit up and said: "Master is wise, Gu Qiuniang saw the resentful spirit, and Song Shilian felt no more suspicious." A sly smile appeared at the corner of her mouth: "Even if Gu Qiuniang really cares about friendship with his wife, if she I saw the resentment around my wife, so I definitely didn’t dare to stay."
Wei Bi calmly took a sip of tea, his eyes deep.
When Qiuniang came to the Wei Mansion, the sky was still dark. When she saw the steward Wei, the steward Wei was very polite and said: "Gu Niangzi, the master is going out, and the old slave has already told the master about your affairs, master. I am very grateful, let the old slave thank Lady Gu on his behalf."
Qiu Niang came today, so naturally she would not bring Qin Xiao over again.
"Master Wei promised me to take care of Sister Hui in the mansion?"
"That's natural." The steward guard smiled and said: "We have cleaned up a house next to Mrs. Gu. Ms. Gu lives next to him and can take care of Mrs. Madam's personal maid Hanxiang in the wife's room. If Lady Gu has any needs, if she can't find me, she can always order Hanxiang to do it."
Qiu Niang breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that Wei Bi had agreed.
The steward Wei helped Qiuniang find a way out. The sky was already dark. Qiuniang asked the kitchen to prepare a bowl of porridge and fed Madam Wei personally. Although Madam Wei was still emaciated and weak, and did not say a word, Qiuniang Feeding the porridge, Mrs. Wei also took a few bites.
The steward of Wei is a member of Wei Bi’s tribe. He may not have moved into the temple at the beginning. There are naturally a lot of servants, and there are still many trivial things to deal with in the house. To manage the servants and deal with many trivial matters, a steward must be needed. With Mrs. Wei taking care of it, he invited his clan uncle from his hometown in Guangling.
The steward Wei is well-rounded, and he is his uncle, so he is naturally trusted by Wei Bi.
His status in the Weifu is not low, so there is a courtyard to live in. On weekdays, except for Wei Bi and his wife, they can enter without notice. The rest of the Weifu has no instructions from the steward of the Wei, so no one dared to step into the courtyard. Half a step.
In the dead of night, everyone in Weifu had already rested. The steward Wei finished his last sip of tea and went to bed to rest.
Since the mansion has been haunted, many people have slept unsteadily, but the housekeeper has been sleeping well, and there is no special situation. He goes to bed on time every day.
It’s just that I didn’t know how long I slept this time, but I heard the sound of "pap pap" from the window. It seemed that someone was knocking on the window outside. This rapid knock on the window immediately awakened the guardian and sat up. The room was pitch black and there was a moon tonight, and the moonlight projected in from the window, glowing with a lonely gloomy light.
The steward Wei looked out the window, only glanced at him, frightened, almost screaming.
Only saw a white shadow dangling outside the window. It appeared from the bottom of the window. With the breeze, it swayed from side to side. There were embroidered shoes on both feet, just like a hanged ghost. generally.
Guardian Wei boldly said: "Yes...who is it?"
The two legs of Bai Ying were just hanging in the air outside the window, looking eerie and weird under the moonlight.
Steward Wei's heartbeat speeds up, lifts the quilt, and looks around
I just saw a pair of scissors on the table, reached out and touched it, held it in his hand, and said to the window: "Who are you? I'm pretending to be a ghost here...!" Holding the scissors, it turned out to be strong Courageously walked to the window.
I didn't get close to the window, but I saw that white shadow suddenly rose up, as if flying into the sky, disappearing in an instant.
The steward Wei was shocked, and then he heard a strange noise coming from the courtyard. He leaned to the window and looked outside, only to see the white figure standing behind his back under the sycamore tree in the courtyard. There.
Guardian's heart sank.
The white shadow disappeared from the window and appeared under the sycamore tree now. It was just a momentary matter. If it were a human, it would never have been such a speed. His forehead was sweating coldly, staring at the white shadow, the white shadow was like A stone sculpture stood motionless in the shadow under the plane tree.
Suddenly heard the sound from the small window behind, the housekeeper was shocked, and immediately turned to look over, but saw that the window was empty. When he turned back and looked under the sycamore tree, he found that the white shadow had disappeared. not see.
The steward guard broke out in a cold sweat.
In a short while, the white shadow disappeared without a trace.
He held the scissors, walked quickly to the outer hall and opened the door. The courtyard was empty, indeed there was no trace of the white shadow. The surrounding walls were all high courtyards, and the gate was locked. The guardian remembered to enter by himself. When you are in the yard, bolt the yard door so that it is impossible for outsiders to push the door and enter.
The walls of this courtyard are extremely high. Without ladders, it is impossible for ordinary people to get out of the wall.
He got furry in his heart, walked into the courtyard, looked around, and indeed there was no trace of that white shadow anymore.
He had a solemn expression, stood there for a moment, and suddenly walked back to the house quickly, put on his clothes, holding the scissors in his hand, leaving the yard, and quickly passed to the southwest corner of the Weifu.
It was late at night, and the whole of the Wei mansion had already stopped, but the steward Wei was walking and observing the surrounding movement, and even looked back from time to time. After walking for a long time, he finally arrived outside the courtyard in the southwest corner of the mansion and looked back. After looking at it, it was confirmed that there was no one around, and then he raised his hand to clap the door.
After a while, I heard a voice from the courtyard: "Who knocked on the door in the middle of the night? And let people not sleep." Then there was a "crunch" and the courtyard door opened. An old man who was over fifty years old Wearing a coat and sleepy eyes, butler Wei was outside the door and was startled, but butler Wei was quickly admitted to the hospital and whispered: "Close the door!"
The old man hurriedly closed the door and turned around and said, "Master Cheng, why are you here?"
This courtyard is the stable of the Weifu. The yard is not big. Four or five horses are raised. There are two houses in the corner of the yard. Naturally, this is the place where the horseman lives. This old man is naturally the horseman of the Weifu.
"I made you look good on people, can you look good?" The guardian asked in a very low voice: "Is the person still there?"
The groom said in surprise: "Naturally, Lord Cheng, are you going to take someone out tonight?"
The steward guard didn't say much, and walked quickly to the corner room. The groom looked confused, but quickly followed.
Entering the house, the housekeeper walked to the back of a room door, saw that the door was locked, frowned, and said to the groom behind him: "Open!"
The groom took the key and unlocked the lock. The housekeeper opened the door. The room was dark, but he saw someone sitting up on the bed in the room. The voice was full of horror: "Who is it?" Hearing the voice, it was clear. Is a woman.
