Si Ning was baffled by Li An's words.
"Uncle, I have said it many times. I have never met the second young master, and I have never done anything to him. You keep asking me whether it makes sense or not."
"You seem to believe that I am plotting to murder the second young master, but why is that? I have no enmity with him, so why should I attack him?"
Li An was holding his breath, but if he accompanied Si Ning and pretended to be stupid, Li Honglin would be in trouble.
He felt that Si Ning was just still angry and wanted an explanation, so he would give her an explanation.
"Honglin did what he did because he was confused. He didn't really want to harm you, he just wanted to make a joke with you."
"Harm me?" Si Ning stared, looking like Li An in disbelief, "Why did he want to harm me? When did it happen?"
She was still pretending to be stupid, and Li An was so angry that he wanted to slam the table.
But his son's life was in Si Ning's hands, and he couldn't really get angry.
He didn't say why Li Honglin wanted to harm Si Ning. His dirty thoughts should only be kept in his heart and not put on the surface, which would only make people more angry.
He just kept apologizing to Si Ning, who looked innocent.
"On that day, only the second wife and I were in the room, and the maids were not there either. We were also wondering how those maids could be so lazy on the big day. Later Qiu Ju told me that it was the second sister-in-law who drove them away. "
"Uncle, in addition to me and the second wife, the second sister-in-law also came to the new house. Could it be that she took the second young master out to play? We really have never seen him. If we really do, or do you think he is going to die? I, I will definitely tell my mother about this."
"Uncle, I don't bully people, but I also won't keep things in the dark."
Si Ning looked very angry, and Li An fell silent.
He nodded, said a hasty apology, stood up and left.
Si Ning looked at his hastily escaping back, pursed his lips and smiled.
It seems that he listened to her words!
Li An did take Si Ning's words to heart.
After Li Honglin's accident, his sister Li Xutang didn't worry at all. She just said that Si Ning and Wu Qianqian must have done something to Li Honglin and tried to find a way for him to deal with them.
There was also the matter of him bringing people to the capital. He only mentioned it to Li Xutang. How did Lu Zhiyuan know about it?
The more Li An thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. He went to Li Xutang and asked her if she was hiding anything.
Li Xutang had just been beaten by Lu Zhiyuan, and now he was questioned by his own brother, and he was furious.
"You all doubt me. You are all fascinated by those two vixens. What's wrong with me? Why are you targeting me!"
Li Xutang was on the verge of collapse. She hated Lu Zhiyuan, Wu Qianqian, Si Ning, and now she also hated her eldest brother.
The people who should believe her the most have to doubt her.
She looked a little crazy, and Li An didn't say anything.
The next day, a big pot was parked in front of the Ning'an Hou Mansion.
The concierge came to report and said that someone named it to give to Li An.
Li An felt strange, who would come here?
He went to the front door to check the situation. There was a pot of hot white soup, nothing unusual.
"Who sent this?" he asked the concierge.
The concierge didn't know, "I put it here as soon as we opened the door."
Si Ning was taking Qiu Ju out when he saw this scene and asked the concierge indifferently.
"Why is there a pot blocking the door? Why don't you move it quickly?"
The pot is placed in the middle of the door, which is too annoying.
The porter did not dare to go against Si Ning's words and hurriedly moved the pots.
I just didn't expect the pot to be so heavy, so I stumbled and half of the soup in the pot spilled.
Qiu Ju hurriedly protected Si Ning behind her and scolded.
"What did you do? If you hurt the third young lady, you just wait to be betrayed!"
The concierge turned pale with fright and kept apologizing to Sining.
Si Ning frowned and wiped the soup stains on his dress, but did not argue with the concierge.
"Who sent this? What kind of soup is it?"
She glanced into the pot, frowned and exclaimed.
"Bone...bone..."
The other three people who yelled looked puzzled, and Li An glanced at the pot.
The soup was full just now, so I didn't pay much attention to it, but now half of the soup was missing, and the contents inside were also exposed.
That's a long bone...
bone!
Li An quickly stepped forward, reached out and fished the bones out of the pot.
The bones looked smooth and flat in the sun. It could be seen that someone carefully shaved off the skin and flesh bit by bit and polished the bones carefully.
The concierge looked at the shape of the bones and was so frightened that he sat down on the ground.
"Humans...are human bones..."
It was a very complete human arm, with the humerus, radius, and ulna intact, and even a small indentation on the ulna could be seen.
Li An looked at the bone blankly, and his hanging hands slowly tightened together.
The news that the Ning'an Marquis Mansion received human bones soon spread in the city.
The government sent a messenger over to inquire about the ins and outs of the matter.
Li Honglin disappeared, and the Ning'an Marquis Mansion reported the case, and now human bones have been found, which are likely to be Li Honglin's.
The official took it seriously, but to everyone's surprise, Li An flatly denied that the bone was his son's.
"It's absolutely impossible. My son was playful when he was a child. He broke his arm and then reconnected it. There's no way there's no trace at all."
The bone really didn't look like it had been injured. Li An refused to recognize it, and the government official had no clues, so he could only file a case first and investigate slowly.
When the old lady heard that someone had left human bone soup at her door, she was so frightened that she fell ill.
She was originally in poor health, and after several blows, she was completely bedridden.
She asked Si Ning to come and wait on her. Si Ning went, but fell ill after only two visits.
Qiu Ju came to the old lady to reply, "The third young lady is worried about taking care of the old lady. Yesterday she caught wind and cold when she returned home. I'm afraid she won't be able to take care of the old lady today. If the old lady doesn't mind, I will take care of you."
The old lady threw her pillow angrily and asked someone to call Li Xutang.
How could Li Xutang be in the mood to serve the old lady? Lu Zhiyuan was disgusted with her, and even Li An was alienated from her. She was trying to find a way to save the situation.
Lu Zhiyuan was so obsessed with Wu Qianqian that he couldn't get out of bed all day long, and there was no one around the old lady to take care of him.
She was so angry that her condition worsened again.
Si Ning listened to Qiu Ju's report casually in the room, writing prescriptions while listening.
Qiu Ju was aggrieved on her behalf, "You go take care of her, she is good, but she is looking for opportunities to waste your time, this is not okay, that is not okay, and she even deliberately scalded you with tea, she deserves to have no one to serve her."
Si Ning didn't care, "How can I keep serving her without him tossing her a little bit? It's better now, no one will say anything."
The emperor values filial piety most, and one word of filial piety is enough to crush Si Ning to death.
The old lady wanted to torture Si Ning, but little did she know that she had done him a big favor.
Si Ning's hand is still wrapped in a bandage. Everyone in the house knows that Si Ning was injured while serving the old lady. If she doesn't go to serve him, no one will say anything.
Si Ning was enjoying his leisure time and was too lazy to talk to the old lady.
The old lady is just a grasshopper after autumn, and there is no threat to her.
The person who should pay attention is not the old lady, but Ang Lee.
