After they opened it and read it, they heaved a sigh of relief. "It's still alive. "
After that, they took the gunny sack and got into the car. They drove in a completely different direction from the previous car.
The night's rain miraculously stopped the next day.
The temperature had risen quite a bit, and there was even the bright sunshine. It was warm and comfortable.
When the family gathered for breakfast, Zhou Lingfang was especially happy. She started chatting and laughing early in the morning, and her steps were light as a feather. She felt like she was going to heaven.
Xia Jinqi naturally knew what she was happy about. She didn't point it out and just watched her enjoy a short period of happiness.
She thought that since second sister-in-law Xu was dead, no one would know her secret anymore. That was why she was so unbridled and happy.
Stupid people always celebrate their success before they fail.
Xia Jinqi's red lips curled slightly. She turned around to look at Yan Jun and deliberately said, "the West Lake Vinegar Fish that second sister-in-law Xu made yesterday was really amazing! "
Her voice was neither loud nor soft, just enough for everyone at the table to hear.
The rest of the people did not have much of a reaction, except for Zhou Lingfang.
She suddenly tightened her grip on her knife and fork, and the smile on her face froze as she stared at Xia Jinqi.
Yan Jun understood the meaning behind Xia Jinqi's words, so he tactfully played along with her and put on a small show. "You like it? Then have this for lunch too. "
"Okay! " Xia Jinqi nodded with a smile.
Then, di Qu, who was serving at the side, stood up and looked at Xia Jinqi with some difficulty. "Young Madam, this... Second sister-in-law Xu didn't come today. Why don't you change your taste? "
"She didn't come? " Xia Jinqi raised her eyebrows and deliberately looked at Zhou Lingfang. "Why? "
"She left quite early yesterday and didn't apply for leave. Her family also said that they couldn't contact her, " di Qu replied.
When di Qu finished speaking, Yan Jun, who had been eating peacefully, suddenly narrowed his eyes and looked at him.
As the head Butler of the Yan family, the most important thing he usually did was to serve Yan Youcheng.
Even Yan Sheng and Yan Jun couldn't be ordered around casually.
But now, he deliberately went to investigate a maid who was absent from work?
Yan Jun averted his gaze and looked at his grandfather.
Yan Youcheng had been eating his breakfast calmly. He did not say a word, not even a glance.
Even so, Yan Jun could see the clues.
His grandfather, who did not seem to care about this matter, might have been secretly investigating it.
Xia Jinqi did not notice that di Qu was not right. Her interested gaze did not shift away from Zhou Lingfang. "Why did he suddenly leave? Could it be... that someone deliberately did it? "
These words clearly had a hidden meaning.
Zhou Lingfang immediately began to struggle like an animal whose neck was being strangled!
"How can you say that? She's just a worthless servant. If she doesn't come, she won't come. Seriously! Why did she do it on purpose? " It was obvious that she was too excited.
Everyone at the table looked at Zhou Lingfang in surprise... ...
Even Yan Qing seemed to have noticed something. He frowned slightly. "Mom, why are you so excited? "
"Ah? Excited? No... " Zhou Lingfang came back to her senses and hurriedly shook her head to explain.
Then, when she turned around, she just happened to see Xia Jinqi leisurely smiling at the corner of her mouth. She was so angry that she gritted her teeth!
This wretched girl She went against her in every way! ! !
However, due to Yan Youcheng's death stare, she shrunk her neck again and didn't dare to say another word.
Xia Jinqi also knew when to stop. She immediately smiled and said, "I was just casually saying it. "
