Chapter 289
"Miss Biao, the younger one is also worried about your safety. I heard that the old house in the county was sold, so I thought you were the reason why I came here in a hurry to make sure Miss Biao is safe."

This grey-haired Guanshi Li knows how to speak well, and keeps half of what he says.

Lianyi had already sat down, but she didn't intend to let Guanshi Li sit down. Holding the handkerchief in her hand, she said with red eyes:
"I asked the housekeeper to sell the old house in the county seat. Just after my father passed away, there were rumors in the city that my father had left me a family property of ten thousand. I was a 12-year-old girl. After finishing my father's funeral in fear, I could only hide in Zhuangzi.

If there is really so much money in the family, even a ginseng plant per day can hang my father's life, why would my father leave me early?

I even sent someone to report the funeral to Li's Mansion in the capital. I thought that my uncle would come to support me, but it turned out that it had been three months since my father's funeral was over, and you were the only one who came to the door. When you came, you said that my Wu family's housekeeper was incompetent, but you still wanted to add to the rumors. What kind of ability is it to bully me as an orphan? "

After speaking, he began to wipe his tears with a handkerchief.

Li Guanshi's expression changed after hearing this, and he immediately knelt down to plead guilty.

"Damn the little one, I didn't see Miss Biao, I don't know if you are all right, my words are out of control, I made Miss Biao feel sad, I will receive my punishment when I go back.

Miss Biao has wronged the master, and when he learned of your father's death, the master sent the young master to bring people to the south of the Yangtze River to attend the funeral."

"really?"

Ripple stopped her tears, asked in surprise, then frowned and said:

"What about others? Why didn't I see them?"

After speaking, he turned his head to look at Butler Wu.

"Miss, if Master Biao comes to the funeral, how dare I hide it? Besides, Miss is in the mourning hall, and you have seen all the mourners."

"Yes! I haven't seen my cousin."

Lianyi threw the question to Guanshi Li again.

"That's why I came this time. The young master disappeared on the way here for the funeral. We have already reported to the authorities."

"And other things?"

Lianyi opened her mouth slightly, pretending to be surprised, and then said suspiciously:

"Is what you said true? Did you coax me? Did my cousin go somewhere else?"

Li Guanshi immediately cursed and swore that what he said was true, but both Lianyi and Wu Butler were skeptical.

Lianyi didn't want to listen to Li Guanshi's nonsense, so she coughed directly, Luo Ying raised her eyebrows, and said with some displeasure:
"Guard Li, you also met my lady. She was already sick and tired. My lady came out in person. What if the wind evil gets worse?"

"It's not mine."

That's all Li Guanshi can say.

"Luo Ying, help me go back and rest!"

"Yes, miss!"

Lianyi waved to Steward Li, and was escorted away by two maids, leaving Steward Wu and Steward Li staring wide-eyed.

Li Guanshi also had self-knowledge, people obviously didn't want to see him, and he didn't even mention staying overnight, so he could only take the initiative to say goodbye and leave.

I wanted to ask the people in Zhuangzi, but although these people were very respectful to him, they didn't ask anything useful. They only said that Miss Wu was kind and treated them well.

Back in her boudoir, Lianyi immediately returned to her original appearance, and Minmin, who was following beside her, asked curiously:

"Miss, why are you being so polite to that steward Li?"

"He represents the Li family in the capital. Although the Li family is a family that has gone downhill in the capital, they still have some effect on the small counties in the south of the Yangtze River. They will deter some young people. Although the young lady doesn't want to get too close to them, it is far from the point of tearing her face."

Luo Ying patiently explained.

"Luo Ying is right. After the three-year filial piety period is over, maybe they will come to pick me up and enter Li's residence in the capital."

Lianyi wiped off the white powder on her lips and said with a smile.

"Since you know that the other party has bad intentions, why do you want to go?"

Zhou Minmin frowned and asked.

"Your lady, I'm going to be old in three years. This needs to be done by the elders. It's just right to leave here, and I will take you to the capital to see."

Ripple said with a smile.

Luo Ying shook her head, but she also knew that her young lady had a good idea, so she didn't say much.

When Steward Li came back the next day, Steward Wu's face was so embarrassing. Before the other party could speak, he said first:
"Guard Li, if you have anything to say, just say it. Yesterday you insisted on seeing the miss, but the miss dragged her sick body to see you, but she caught the wind and developed a fever this morning."

Li Guanshi had black lines all over his face, so he could only pretend to be concerned and asked:

"But did you invite the doctor to come and see?"

"I invited you early in the morning. Miss just drank the antipyretic medicine and fell asleep, so I don't want to disturb you now."

Butler Wu said lightly.

"That's good, there's nothing else to do. On behalf of the Li family, I invite the young lady to live in the capital, so that I won't be lonely here, and people still miss me."

"That's not necessary. The lady said that this place is close to the master and wife, and she can go to the grave at any time. Besides, it's not appropriate to keep filial piety and not stay with relatives!"

Guanshi Li knew that the proposal had been rejected, so he didn't bother anymore. He came this time mainly to find the young master, so he left after a while.

Li Guanshi left, and Zhuangzi returned to his former calm. While learning martial arts, Lianyi also had to take care of other skills, and never took time off.

Wen Lu, on the other hand, became more active as she taught her. She found that her young lady was very powerful. She only taught her sword moves once, and the other party could remember them. When she taught her the second time, she could already draw like a cat drawing a tiger. Although she didn't have internal strength, she could still bluff people just by looking at the sword moves.

Min Min also encountered the same situation when she taught her young lady to learn boxing. She once suspected that Miss Lianyi's boxing was the authentic Vajra Fumoquan, except that it was weaker in strength.

Of course, this is the reason why Ripple has some reservations, she won't let people know all her hole cards.

In the second month after moving to Zhuangzi, she had already used the spirit essence of space to draw Qi into her body. Originally, she also had the attitude of giving it a try. After all, this is not the realm of cultivation, but to deal with the evil spirits that came out of nowhere, she felt that she still needed a certain method of restraint.

After drawing Qi into her body, Lianyi felt the suppression of Heavenly Dao, but it seemed to be lenient to her.

"Nineteen, the way of heaven here allows me to cultivate."

"This is an agreement reached between our Space-Time Administration and Fang Tiandao. We send someone to eliminate the threat of entering this interface through the space gap. He turns a blind eye and allows you to have matching strength.

It's like you have entered the ancient interface, but the enemy has guns and ammunition. In order to eliminate this enemy, you also need matching weapons, but in order not to disturb the entire interface, you can only and only have weapons that exceed the development of the plane. "

Shijiu explained it very clearly.

"Understood!"

Now that she was approved by the Dao of Heaven, she began to practice with all her heart. Three years later, she successfully cultivated to the late stage of Qi Refining, but there was no Lei Jie to help her break through the foundation-building stage.

At this time, the people sent by the Li family in the capital to pick her up also arrived at the villa.
