Chapter 583 Interrogation
Li Yan understood in seconds, and immediately closed his mouth tightly.

In fact, Mrs. Li also had many questions in her heart, and she couldn't wait to speak at this moment, "Girl, tell me, what happened in Tan Tuo Temple today, the girl of the Sun family said that a thief came from the back mountain, That bad girl from the Lu family said that you were kidnapped by bandits, which ones are true and which ones are false?"

Li Meier had already prepared a draft in her heart. In order not to scare her grandmother, she had already compiled a set of excuses, and now she said: "Actually, it's not as dangerous as your grandmother said. There is indeed a group of bandits passing by." The trail in the back mountain got mixed up in the back mountain, but Baozi and I were alert at the time, and we escaped through the window before they came, and later met Xiao Wu who also escaped, and I cooperated with Sun Xiaowu to let her escape first Go out and report the letter, and I've been hiding in hiding since then, but those bandits never caught me at all."

Li Meier's words are full of flaws. How could Mrs. Li believe such a fine person? She snorted softly and said, "Don't lie to my old woman. Since you have never been caught by bandits, the wound on Baozi's neck What's going on, it looks like it was cut by a sharp knife."

"Oh, grandma, you said that, it was Baozi who hurt herself, didn't I always wear a dagger for self-defense, I gave Baozi the dagger, she didn't know how to use it herself, so she hurt herself .” Li Meier opened her eyes and spoke nonsense.

Mrs. Li was so angry that she slapped the table heavily with her palms, "You think I'm a fool, don't you? If you say this, do you believe it yourself?"

Li Meier spread her hands with an innocent face, "Whether you believe it or not, I believe it anyway."

After hearing what she said, Mrs. Li was about to roll up her sleeves and come over to beat someone up.

Li Yan rushed forward to stop her, and persuaded in a good voice: "Mother, don't be as knowledgeable as Mei Meier, she is a girl, she has been frightened enough today."

Mrs. Li is just pretending, she didn't really want to fight at first, she was just angry with her granddaughter for being unreliable, she took a few breaths, and she was not in the mood to continue asking, anyway, it's fine if people are fine, but this Tan Tuo Temple will not be able to do it in the future I went there, and I really saw a ghost. Such a big temple can still let bandits sneak in.

Mrs. Li was persuaded by Mrs. Lin and Li Yan to go back to her room to rest.Her old man was also quite frightened today, and with her age, her energy was low after all, after arguing with Li Mei'er for a while, her head hurt again.

Seeing that her mother-in-law was gone, Mrs. Jiang sent a few children back to rest. Brother Kang was obviously not happy. He felt that he was already an adult and was qualified to stay and listen. Besides, he was also very curious about the elder sister's presence. The encounter in the temple.

However, he didn't dare to make a mistake when Jiang Shi gave him a stare, and went back to rest in desperation.

When only Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Li Meier were left in the room, Mrs. Jiang straightened her face and asked, "Tell me, what's going on today? Don't fool me like you fooled your grandmother. I know that you were really taken down the mountain by those bandits."

Jiang is very scared when she thinks about it now. Although she was safe and sound when she found her daughter, and she didn't see any bandits herself, she knew that her daughter must have been hijacked by bandits.

Li Meier suddenly cried out in her heart, she knew that the old lady was as easy to deal with as a grandmother, but she really couldn't explain many things to Jiang Shi, so she could only sigh helplessly: "Mother, it's actually not as complicated as you think, Didn’t the day lilies come to save me later, we took advantage of the unsuspecting bandits and escaped by cooperating internally and externally.”

"Those bandits didn't catch up when they found out that you had escaped?" Mrs. Jiang obviously didn't believe her words, and asked with a frown.

"It's also our luck. There was something wrong with the bandits' stronghold. They didn't care about us, so they hurried back to the stronghold." Li Meier said half-truthfully.

Jiang always felt that there was something wrong, but couldn't tell.

"Okay, it's fine that Mei Meier is safe and sound, there's no need to get to the bottom of everything." Li Yan suddenly spoke for his daughter, and held his wife's hand to comfort him.

Mrs. Jiang glared at her husband angrily, "Aren't I afraid that Mei Meier will be retaliated by those bandits in the future!"

"Don't worry, mother, it won't happen. This is the capital city. How could those bandits have the guts to act wild in the city." Li Meier said very firmly, he can guarantee this matter.

"And that girl from the Lu family, didn't she want to harm you..." Jiang thought of Lu Zhiwei again, frowning worriedly.

Li Meier just sneered, "You don't have to worry about this mother, even though she is gone now, but I think Laibo's mansion must be more anxious to find her than we are. Stormy."

And she still has the trump card of Ju Rui in her hand, so naturally she is not afraid of her even more, but she hopes that Lu Zhiwei will show up earlier, so that they can settle the old and new grudges together.

Seeing her daughter's calm appearance, Mrs. Jiang finally just sighed helplessly.When her daughter grew up, she didn't tell her mother everything like she did when she was a child. Although she felt a little lost in her heart, she knew that her children would one day grow up and leave the protection of their parents.

She looked at Jiang Shanqing, and said slowly: "Shanqing, Mei Meier is still a little unsteady after all, I hope you take care of her more on weekdays, what's the matter, you and your husband have discussed it more, our family does not want to be rich Gui, as long as you are safe, your husband, wife and grandmother and I can rest assured."

Jiang Shanqing felt guilty when he heard Jiang Shi's words, because if it wasn't for him, the Li family would not have been involved in these palace disputes.

At this moment, he can only firmly promise Jiang, "Mother, don't worry, as long as I am here, Mei Meier will never make any mistakes."

With Jiang Shanqing's guarantee, Jiang's heart finally felt more at ease, and nodded to the young couple: "It's getting late today, you should go back and rest early."

Only then did Jiang Shanqing pull Li Meier out of the side hall.

Seeing the two leave, Jiang still couldn't help complaining to her husband, "I always feel that these two children are hiding something important from us."

Li Yan has actually felt this way for a long time, but he has always been open-minded. He feels that his children and grandchildren have their own blessings. If his daughter and son-in-law don’t talk about it, he will naturally not ask, so he still comforts his wife, “Children will always have their own The secret, Shan Qing and Mei Meier are not fools, we have to trust them and they will handle everything well."

"You can think about it. I always feel that what happened in Tan Tuo Temple today is not a simple accident." Jiang Shi gave her husband another look and said worriedly.

"Whether it's an accident or not, it's good that you're fine." Li Yan hugged his wife's shoulders and comforted him softly.
