After Dressing Up As a Stepmother, I Transformed the Whole Family Into Working In the Fields Chapter 382

In order not to disturb Qin Yao's sleep, Liu Ji came to the inn lobby early in the morning with his books and ate breakfast while rubbing himself against the charcoal fire.

The shopkeeper saw that he was quite hardworking and good-looking, so he gave him an extra bowl of hot mutton soup.

This soup has been simmered with mutton bones over low heat all night, and the best part has already been integrated into the soup. It is fresh and fragrant, and it is so delicious that Liu Ji's whole body feels like floating in the air.

While enjoying this bowl of fragrant mutton soup in winter, there was a commotion outside the inn.

Liu Ji suddenly thought about gossip. He walked to the door of the inn with a soup bowl and saw a group of grocery shopping ladies gathered together, talking excitedly about the murder case in the south of the city last night.

　homicide? Is it so exciting?

Liu Ji immediately became interested, stepped forward to join in the fun, and curiously asked: "Sisters, who was killed?"

Qiu Yan was startled, and immediately asked someone to remove the wine and get some tea. The tea she made was the finest black tea that had just been shipped off the cargo ship this morning.

The two of them led Qin Yao to the back hall, where a banquet had been set up. The dishes were warmed on a porcelain warming plate. The food was steaming and the aroma was overflowing.

Liu Ji shook his head, put down the empty bowl, packed up the books on the table, thanked the shopkeeper politely, and prepared to go back to his room.

Qin Yao nodded lightly and told him: "We will return tomorrow. I will go out to do some errands in a while. After that, we will go buy new year's goods together in the afternoon. See if you want to go to Gong Liangxiao in the morning. Say something else."

The chubby-faced lady was the most well-informed of the group, and she was also the first to initiate the topic. She was interrupted just now by Liu Ji, and now she continued:

“The person who died is Guo Lin, the owner of Jingyun Trading Company, the same Guo Dafu who spent a lot of money to buy the top brand of Yihongyuan and spent money without blinking an eye!”

Jiang Wenxu helped her sit down and sat on the main seat. Qiu Yan and Jiang Wen sat beside her, one on the left and one on the right.

“Oh my god, how cruel is this murderer? His actions are too scary. Could it be that Guo Dafu has made an enemy and the other party paid for the murder?”

Qin Yao had just had breakfast, and now seeing such a sumptuous banquet, her appetite was aroused again.

Qin Yao hummed, finished the last bite of the meat buns, and reminded him unsatisfied: "The soup is good, but the buns are not as delicious as the meat porridge you made."

Because he is so familiar with that technique!

The couple separated at the door of the inn. One went to He's house to say goodbye to his teacher and senior brother, and the other went to the branch of Fulong Commercial Bank to continue the order of 5,000 book boxes that had not been signed yesterday.

The fat-faced lady shook her head and sighed, "Who knows, this fate is really hard to predict. Nowadays, disasters are coming. It doesn't matter if you have a fortune. Once a person dies, everything is gone."

Qin Yao has gotten up and is washing up in the house.

Jiang Wen added from the side: "Black tea is the best for women to maintain their health."

Who among ordinary people would use such means to kill people?

As soon as Qin Yao walked into the trading house, Jiang Wen, who had been waiting for a long time, had never met the other Qin Yao, but he guessed at a glance that he should be a smart man from Jiang Wendong's family, and he greeted him enthusiastically.

Qiu Yan poured the wine and Qin Yao raised her hand, "I want to drink tea today."

“What's wrong?” Qin Yaohu asked.

As he said that, he did not forget to secretly observe Qin Yao's reaction. When he saw her nodding, she sat down, picked up her breakfast and started eating, frowning suspiciously.

Jiang Wen introduced: "Ms. Qin, this is our boss, Qiu Yan."

“What are you curious about? What's so strange about having your head twisted off!”

Of course Liu Ji understands, he cooks it himself in the evening!

This evil woman's appetite is really getting bigger and bigger.

The onlookers shrank their necks one after another and subconsciously touched their own necks, feeling scared.

Even if you really want to twist the person's neck, most people cannot do it so quickly, decisively, and with such strength in such a short period of time.

Take two steps out, then step back, ask the shopkeeper for a bowl of mutton soup and five big buns, carry them together, and return to the guest room.

Liu Ji only hesitated for half a second and then replied with a smile: "It's nothing. Madam, please continue eating and eat more."

Qiu Yan hurriedly clasped her fists and saluted, "Hello, hello, Mrs. Qin, please come in quickly!"

As soon as the name Guo Dafu came out, everyone else looked over and nodded in agreement to show that they knew this man. Unexpectedly, he was actually dead or killed in the street. Everyone was shocked.

Liu Ji nodded, "This is definitely necessary. I will go after you finish eating and go out."

“Mr. Liu, are you okay?” the shopkeeper asked with concern.

Did he think too much?

But, he seemed to have heard the sound of the door opening and closing last night, so it was just a coincidence?

“Madam, aren't you curious?” Liu Ji suddenly asked. Qin Yao was enjoying her meal, but Liu Ji was talking about murder. She really felt very disappointed. She put down the soup bowl with a bang, raised her eyebrows and asked:

Unexpectedly, Liu Ji's expression changed and his breathing became rapid for a moment.

So he hurriedly asked: "Good sister, how did he die? Aren't these wealthy businessmen carrying many guards with them? How could he be killed in the street?"

So, do you understand what she means?

The focus of the discussion gradually shifted to the inheritance of Guo Dafu's large inheritance. Liu Ji returned to the inn with the empty bowl he drank from. The shopkeeper called him, and he looked a little dazed.

Liu Ji shook his head hurriedly, walked into the room and put down the breakfast for her, then took a stool, sat in the corner, and whispered tentatively:

He didn't even mention how the man died, but she did tell it herself!

　　　"Madam, why did you..." kill someone again?

Qin Yao nodded lightly to Qiu Yan, "Hello!"

“What else?” Qin Yao grinned and asked kindly.

　　Liu Ji's breath was suffocated, and his eyes suddenly widened, "It's really you!"

Liu Ji loves to hear the news about the tragic deaths of these wealthy businessmen. This can give him, a poor and low-class scoundrel, a moment of spiritual victory.

Although she did not admit that she killed Guo Lin, Liu Ji was already convinced that she was the murderer.

Being called "good sister", the fat-faced lady's heart melted, and she said with regret:

"There must be guards, but I heard from the girls in Yihonglou that the killer is so powerful. In the blink of an eye, he flew past the guards and got behind Guo Dafu who was escaping. Then he grabbed his head with both hands and twisted it hard. , with a squeak, the person lost his breath and his head was cut off, so you can tell me it's scary or not.”

“I just heard someone say that there was a murder in the city last night”

Several ladies looked back and saw a handsome young scholar with a sweet mouth who even called them sister. They immediately waved to welcome him to join.

Wiping her mouth with a handkerchief, Qin Yao got up and went out.

The door opened and Liu Ji brought breakfast, and he gave him a sunny smile in a good mood.

The boss and the second shopkeeper of the big business were so attentive and careful. Qin Yao thought to herself while sipping the black tea that the taste of power can easily make people get carried away.

However, she is not a fool who has never enjoyed the taste of power. Now this flattery cannot cause the slightest fluctuation in her heart.

Happy New Year!
