Chapter 38 The Seven-Colored Hero of Shangshu Mansion
There was a big case in the Dali Temple, so everyone became busy again. Yesterday, the Shangshu Mansion promised that they could question the people who reported the case yesterday, so Gu Qingyun and others arrived at the Shangshu Mansion early in the morning.
This time, there was no situation of being delayed and not being allowed to meet. It was just that the young lady from the Shangshu Mansion probably read too many picture books on weekdays, and her words were very complicated. Even Zhao Huaiqing felt that she was exaggerating a lot.
Miss Jiao, who said she was frightened yesterday, is gesticulating and talking today, totally unlike an ordinary lady.
"Speaking of which, yesterday I went to the street with Lotus Leaf and Lotus Flower. I thought that it had been a while since I, the Seven-Colored Hero, had helped the poor in the martial arts world. Unexpectedly, we just bought some lotus cakes and ate a few golden cakes. We were just about to buy some lotus root powder, which is the most delicious in summer." Seeing that she had seriously deviated from the topic, Zhao Huaiqing could only cough twice, "Miss Li, you have deviated from the topic."
Unexpectedly, Miss Li didn't care whether the topic was off topic or not, and continued to dance and said, "Sir, please don't interrupt my thoughts. We thought that there was a grandmother Wang in Anning Lane who made the most delicious lotus root powder. This grandmother Wang..."
Zhao Huaiqing's face was full of black lines, but he had to listen until Miss Li finished introducing how Granny Wang raised her family with lotus root powder, how she helped poor children nearby, and finally talked about how pitiful the little beggars in Anning Lane were.
Only after she had talked about the many people in Anning Lane did she get to the point.
"Hehua and Heye and I bought some food and distributed it to the poor children in Anning Lane. This hero had already distributed all the kindness he had given yesterday, so he sent Hehua and Heye away. One of them bought me some cakes and sugar cakes, and the other called a carriage for me. Yesterday's rescue really made me too tired, and the hero inevitably let his guard down. Who would have thought that I would be knocked unconscious by a big and strong man? Although I know some kung fu, I was too tired and was knocked down before I could display it.
I was so quick-witted that I fell asleep. Guess what, the big man really thought I had fainted, so he didn't even put a sack on me, but just picked me up and left.
That was a good feeling. I marked the way with the lotus crisps left over from the morning, thinking about lotus and lotus leaves all the way. This was too slow. I was carried back to the yard, and the big man put me directly in the basement. The basement was stinking and it really stained my clothes.
As soon as I entered, I heard the big man say that we should wait until the boss came before we could play slowly, and he said I was a newcomer. I was speechless. Is this the reward for traveling the world with a sword? It really makes me angry.
Later, I saw the big man and several other men, also big and strong, start to sharpen knives. The little girls in the cell next to me just kept crying and crying, and they cried when they heard the sound of sharpening knives. I saw that they were all disabled, and I knew what was going on. I was still thinking about how to get out, and then Lotus Flower and Lotus Leaf came, and brought people from the government office.
Those big men walked up while cursing, but I didn't see where they were going or how they came up. I just heard them cursing, in Chinese and other languages. It seemed like they were speaking northern languages, and I had no idea what language they were speaking.
Later, my old lady and old man came and cried and begged to examine my health, so I left. "
Miss Li finally finished telling her wonderful story of yesterday. Zhao Huaiqing also felt that he had recorded a sketchbook. He didn't know how much he had to delete before putting it into the collection, so he could only let Miss Li sign and seal it first.
Miss Li read it, nodded with satisfaction, signed her name and asked, "Brother Guanye, can I write this as a picture book?" Her eyes were bright and she looked energetic.
Zhao Huaiqing's face was full of black lines, but under the pressure of these eyes, he nodded.
Miss Li jumped up excitedly, twirling and leaping, not looking frightened at all. Zhao Huaiqing thought she was just a cheerful little sister.
After asking Miss Li, it was almost afternoon. The Shangshu Mansion invited them to dinner. Even though Gu Qingyun refused several times, the Shangshu's wife refused to let them go, so they had a simple meal.
He kept glancing back and forth at a few people during the meal, and even Xinhai noticed the unusual heat.
"Sir Shaoqing, are you going to get married?" The Shangshu's wife finally couldn't help asking.
"Ahem - thank you Madam Li for your concern. My marriage will be decided by my grandmother. I don't know anything about it." Gu Qingyun immediately used his grandmother as a shield. Everyone knew that his grandmother was a princess, and no one could say that his grandmother had problems with her decision-making.
The Shangshu's wife naturally didn't dare to ask more questions, and turned to ask the others, "Are you married?"
Several people choked on their food and coughed a few times, saying, "We are still young, there is no rush."
The Shangshu's wife took her daughter's hand and said, "Our Qing'er is unmarried and still young. Our Qing'er is good in every way except that she loves to go out and uphold justice. I think you guys are also upholding justice, right? Why don't you just talk to our Qing'er?"
Miss Li, who had just been eating with Kuku, immediately jumped up and said, "I won't marry. I am the chivalrous and righteous Seven-Colored Knight, and my mission is not yet complete."
The Shangshu's wife twitched the corners of her mouth slightly and acted speechless, but then she remembered that she was her daughter, so she just shut up.
This girl is good in every way except that she has a bad temper. She always seems to be ready to run out of the house. The danger she encountered yesterday was because she often climbs over the wall to go out and play without telling anyone in the mansion. Otherwise, how could she be in danger?
Yesterday, everyone in the family was almost scared to death, but Li Qing seemed to be completely unaffected. If I had known this would happen, I would not have sent her to be raised by my brother, General Zhenyuan, when she was a child. After being raised for several years, she didn't have much real skills, and only learned some mediocre fighting skills. It was really enough.
After lunch, they asked about He Ye He Hua and the driver who came later.
He Ye said that her young lady liked to go out and play, and that place was not a secluded place, so she would come back as soon as she left. Who knew that she would not be there when she came back? She thought that she was playing around again. She waited for He Hua for a while, but when she saw that the young lady did not come back and He Hua did not come back either, she walked along until she reached the corner, and then she saw the mark left by the young lady. She thought to herself that it was not good, so she followed the mark and wrote a new mark for He Hua.
He Hua said that He Ye and the young lady were both a little directionally challenged, so she called the driver to come and follow the trail. Who knew that the marks along the way were often repeated, and it felt like the man was going in circles, so she caught up with He Ye before he reached the mansion. When they arrived at the mansion, He Ye wanted to report her identity directly, but she thought it was not possible. If they were bad guys, not only would they not be able to save the young lady, but they would also get themselves killed. So she asked the driver to go to the Dali Temple quickly, one person reported the case, and the other went home to report the news.
