The mature and prudent Kuang Hongyi noticed something strange and lowered his voice and asked: "With all due respect, even if the second young lady gives birth successfully, how can you guarantee that it will be a boy?"
As soon as these words came out, Mr. Feng was stunned for a moment, and then coughed twice in embarrassment, "You don't need to worry about this. We found the best doctor in the city and prescribed many secret recipes for Zhitong. As long as the birth goes smoothly, it will be It’s a baby boy.”
"Cough...cough cough..."
Perhaps because he had said too much, Mr. Feng coughed violently, and then waved his hand. Upon seeing this, Butler Liu stepped forward, with his hands facing outward, making a gesture of invitation, "Dear guests, Mr. Feng needs to rest. The remaining If you have any questions, just ask me."
The group of people left, and Butler Liu's attitude on the way was much more sincere than before, "Fellow guests, don't worry, the third young master's death is still going strong. The most important thing now is to save the last bloodline of the Feng family, and the second young mistress' belly." The children inside.”
"Let me tell you the truth, neither the eldest nor the third young master is the most important to me. Only the second young master is my favorite."
At this point, Butler Liu pursed his lips and fell into memories: "The master protects the second young master the best. This is why the second young master is the last of the three children to have an accident. The master gave repeated orders to take good care of the second young master. But who would have thought...Hey!"
"The second young master is the heir to the family business in my heart. On the day of the accident, I originally arranged for the second young master to practice swordsmanship with the martial arts master in the house, but the second young master was playful and secretly slipped out of the house on horseback."
"The master regretted this matter so much that he even vomited blood several times. He regretted countless times that it would have been better if he had left the second young master under his knees."
Yang Xiao and Kuang Hongyi's expressions changed slightly as soon as these words came out. This did not correspond to the second sentence in the ancient saying: the second son is left behind.
"Master Feng only has three young masters?" Kuang Hongyi asked casually, "Don't you have a precious daughter?"
"No." Butler Liu shook his head, "The first lady left early, leaving only three young masters. The master was deeply devoted to the first lady, and he never refused to continue their relationship, nor did he take any concubines."
"Maybe Mr. Feng was a prodigal in his early years, but you, the housekeeper, don't know it." Yang Xiao and Kuang Hongyi sang in harmony.
Butler Liu frowned when he heard this, "Don't talk nonsense. My master is famous for being infatuated. Besides, the old master is extremely strict with me. My master has never been to those romantic places. This can be said by everyone in the city." Confirmed.”
Yang Xiao wasn't angry either. He cupped his hands to Butler Liu and said, "Sorry, sorry, I just made a joke because the atmosphere was tense. Butler Liu, please don't take it seriously."
Yang Xiao's move made Butler Liu a little embarrassed. After all, he still had to ask for help from these people, so he stepped down and said, "It doesn't matter, I'll have to worry about you all next."
The first two sentences of the old saying are that the first daughter should not marry outside, and the second son should be left behind. The second sentence should refer to the second young master of the Feng family.
Thinking this way, Yang Xiao and Kuang Hongyi judged that the fact that this girl did not marry outside was probably related to Mr. Feng. Could it be that he also had a daughter?
Of course, this sentence may also refer to Xi Yao, but Yang Xiao always felt that things were not that simple.
At this time, it was probably around 10 a.m. at most, but the sky was as gloomy as the evening, with light rain falling from the sky, and the raindrops felt surprisingly cold on my body.
Returning to the backyard, the scene on the lake was even more horrifying. From a distance, one could only see the body of the third young master floating in the black water of the lake, face down, motionless. There was still mist on the lake that had not dissipated.
Shi Dali's face was solemn, "It's so evil."
Seeing such a scene, Butler Liu couldn't hold himself back anymore and turned around and said: "Everyone, you have seen that Xi Yao will definitely attack the master or the second young lady tonight, so we must attack first. After nightfall today, I have to ask a few of you to go to the lake again."
"You want to bring back the third young master's body?" Shi Guanming instinctively shrank his neck. He didn't even have to think about it. Now the third young master was just a bait. Whoever got close would die.
But Butler Liu shook his head, "I won't worry about the third young master's body. What you have to do is go into the water and find Xiyao's body."
Everyone was shocked when these words came out, and Su Tingting almost cried, "Are you serious when you say this?"
"Don't worry, I don't ask you to do anything to the body. I just need to find the body and close Xiyao's eyes. After all, she will die with her eyes closed." Butler Liu speeded up his explanation, "And we have plans for tonight. All you have to do is follow the plan. Act according to your abilities, and you will definitely not make any mistakes."
"Come on, tell me first what clever plan you have?" Yang Xiao didn't tolerate Butler Liu at the moment. Letting them go into the water under such circumstances was clearly asking them to die.
Butler Liu thought for a moment, reorganized his words, and said slowly: "That's it, I have already arranged it. Tonight we will set up the soul summoning array in the hall, and then arrange a lot of incense, candles, paper money, as well as the opera robes and costumes that Xi Yao once wore during his lifetime. Jewelry, use her birth date to summon her soul!”
"As long as her soul is summoned, then Xiyao under the water will be an ordinary corpse. What's the difficulty in closing the eyes of a dead corpse?"
Butler Liu's words sounded nice, but everyone didn't buy it. Shi Dali laughed and said: "Since it is an ordinary corpse, then Butler Liu can just arrange for the servants in the house to do it, so why bother looking for us? ?”
"You are all well-known lucky guests from ten miles and eight towns nearby. You have never seen any big winds and waves. You are blessed with good luck. The servants in the house are all cheap. If you let them go, I am afraid it will cause unnecessary trouble. On the contrary, It’s not good for you.” Butler Liu smiled, “Besides, you all received money.”
After going back and forth several times, Butler Liu's attitude became increasingly tough, and everyone had no choice but to give up.
Kuang Hongyi's face stiffened and he stared at Butler Liu, "Okay, then you can first tell me what's going on in tonight's soul summoning ceremony. Is it reliable?"
Putting his hands flat and inserting them into his cuffs, Butler Liu looked confident, "You can rest assured on this. We bought the magic circle from a Taoist cultivator on Qingzhe Mountain at a huge price."
"Xiyao likes to sing most in her life, so we built a stage and let her sing to her heart's content. We also brought many paper figures to serve as her audience. In conjunction with the magic circle, we only had to trap her here for a moment and three seconds. The other team goes into the water and closes the eyes of the corpse, and it’s done!”
When the conversation changed, Butler Liu glanced at the few people little by little, "But this magic circle has a requirement, and it needs to borrow the body of one of the several people."
Butler Liu's eyes finally stayed on Su Tingting's face. After a moment, he smiled strangely: "It's best to be a woman."
