Chapter 16

"Nephew, I have known your father for more than twenty years."

"When we met at the beginning of the year, Chao Ge was very embarrassed, hungry and hungry. I saw him pitiful, so I promised to let him work as a long-term laborer at home, plowing and weeding for me."

Chai Yuanwai mentioned Li Chaoge, and his words were quite emotional: "Although your father is not working hard, he is not a qualified farmer, but he has a bright mind. In a short time, he redeemed himself in my house, and he still has money to marry a wife and have children. industry."

"Your father is grateful. He has maintained his life. He often gave me gifts and kept in touch with him. I saw him go from being poor to having both children and a happy family. But I didn't expect him to leave so early."

Hearing that Chai Yuanwai mentioned his father, Li Jingji remained silent.

Although my father often has dreams and is still in touch with his family, the difference between life and death is not so easy to forget.

"Now, I'm dying too. On Huangquan Road, maybe I can meet him and talk about the interesting things about swimming with my arms when I was young."

When he spoke, his breathing was rapid, and he seemed to be a little out of breath.

Dad didn't go into reincarnation, so it's impossible to meet after death.

Of course, Li Jingji could only think about these words in his heart, and did not say them in person.

"Your family and I are old friends. You came today just in time. If you have anything you like in the Chai family, you can take it."

"I just ask you one thing, after I die, take care of my little girl for me."

Chai Yuanwai said weakly.

Although Chai Yuanwai and his first wife have been married for twenty years, they only have a young daughter Chai Fang under their knees, far inferior to Li Chaoge who has three generations under one roof, so it is normal to have some worries.

But what Li Jingji wondered was, why did Chai Yuanwai want to entrust it to the Li family?

In terms of relatives and estrangements, besides the Chai members, there are also family ties and wives, how could it be the Li family's turn?
Seeming to see Li Jingji's doubts, Chai Yuanwai laughed at himself: "If Fang'er is a boy, the clan is still reliable, but she is a girl, and in front of those clan relatives, she is not qualified to enter the ancestral hall. Take care."

"Madam is also suffering from a serious illness, and she will die soon. As for Mrs. Xu... Mrs. Xu"

He muttered a few words about Xu Shi, but he didn't continue.

Li Jingji's attention was not on Mrs. Xu, but on Mrs. Zhou.

"Mrs. Zhou is also seriously ill?"

He was a little astonished, why did this loving couple suddenly become sick and consumptive.

Li Jingji chatted with Chai Yuanwai for a while, and promised that if Chai Yuanwai really died young, he would help take care of Chai Fang if the Li family could do it.

After chatting for a long time, Chai Yuan couldn't hold on anymore, and Li Jingji didn't bother him anymore, and walked out of the house.

"Why are Chai Yuanwai and Mrs. Zhou both sick?"

Li Jingji was very puzzled by this question. He had been chatting with Chai Yuanwai before, but he kept avoiding talking about it. When he left the house, Li Jingji found a servant at random and asked.

"I don't know that."

The servant shook his head again and again: "How can we servants dare to inquire about the affairs of the master's family."

"Then, when did Chai Yuanwai get sick?"

Li Jingji continued to ask.

"It seems that it hasn't been long since I married Mrs. Xu."

The servant recalled it for a while, and finally affirmed.

Xu!

Thinking of all the weird situations between the Xu family and Chai Yuanwai before, Li Jingji couldn't help having a ridiculous guess.

All of this may have something to do with Xu!

Reminiscent of the news of the fox demon riot in Nanshan Village a few years ago, and thinking about the foul smell he smelled from Mrs. Xu, Li Jingji felt that he was about to solve the case.

Sitting on the railing and meditating for a quarter of an hour, he took the bronze mirror from a room in Chai's house.

There is a method of illuminating demons in the world, which is called Pusaliva.

According to Buddhist etiquette, human body fluid and saliva are called Jinjinyuye, where the nectar of vitality is located, and it has miraculous effects on sneaky things.

The so-called spit spit technique is to spit out a mouthful of saliva, cover it on the copper mirror, and then smooth it with the palm of your hand.

It can apply spirituality to the bronze mirror, distinguish the true from the false, and show the original shape.

What Li Jingji wanted to use was exactly this spit-pushing technique.

According to the legend, he spat out a mouthful of saliva and rubbed it on the entire surface of the bronze mirror.

"If it's really a fox demon and wants to kill Uncle Chai's family, I will find a way to get rid of you!"

He muttered, and with the bronze mirror imposing the ancient method, he found Mrs. Xu in the middle hall.

"Ms. Xu, when you entered Chai's house, none of the Chai members invited us to drink, and we were not able to congratulate the newlyweds. I hope you will forgive me."

Li Jingji pretended to talk to Mrs. Xu, but hid his palms behind his back, playing with the bronze mirror.

"Where, I will walk around frequently in the future."

Xu's smiling face was full of courtesy.

Taking advantage of the gap, he quickly glanced at the bronze mirror.

In the bronze mirror, the graceful Xu had a fluffy fox face, with a long tail floating behind him.

What a fox!

Li Jingzhi was terrified, and his body froze, only feeling cold all over, as if falling into an ice cave.

"What's the matter, Li Erlang, are you uncomfortable?"

Xu didn't notice it, and asked with concern.

"No, no, my nephew and I still have something to do, we need to go home early, so don't bother me."

"I'll just ask Xiaoyu to come home with me!"

Li Jingji suppressed his smile, quickly hid the bronze mirror, and went to look for Li Yu.

"Let's go, hurry home with me!"

Li Yu and Chai Fang were cutting the kite with their own hands, so they pretended not to hear that they were willing to go back.

"Come back with me"

Li Jingji's face was livid, and he grabbed Li Yu's ears and dragged him out abruptly.

"I'm leaving now? Let me see you off."

Seeing that he was in a hurry, Mrs. Xu couldn't help but offered to send them out.

This remark sent chills down Li Jingji's spine, how dare he let the fox demon see him off?
"No, we will visit again next time."

As he said that, he quickly ran out of Chai's house with Li Yu.

It wasn't until he ran a mile away from Chai's house that Li Jingji heaved a sigh of relief and put down his little nephew from his shoulders.

"I'm going to tell grandma when I go back, the second uncle is bullying!"

Li Yu was a little annoyed: "You don't let me play with Xiaofang, and you even pull my ears."

He finally met his playmate, but was forcibly separated. He felt that he could no longer be as happy as before.

"Stinky boy, I will settle accounts with you when I go back!"

Li Jingji was so distraught that he didn't care about him, so he rushed home while the sun was still shining.

In Li Zhongtang, a family of four gathered around the dining table without moving their chopsticks.

"We're back."

Hearing the voices of Li Jingji and Li Yu, Chen Qingqian and his elder brother and sister-in-law all went up to greet him, but Li Ru didn't care about it so much, and just started eating.

In order to wait for Li Jingji to come home, she was so hungry that her chest was pressed against her back.

For the delicious fish soup with rice, Li Ru cooked the rice extremely fast, and kept sending it to his mouth.

Afterwards, she was choked with a single sentence by Li Jingji, who was still in shock.

"The Chai family, there is a fox demon, both Chai Yuanwai and Mrs. Zhou were killed by it!"

Li Jingji's first words after sitting down shocked the whole family.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Li Ru coughed a few times, and then managed to suppress the discomfort of choking: "Second brother, what are you talking about?"

"Fox demon, Chai Yuanwai Xinna's concubine Xu, is the fox demon!"
