"They're all asleep, just like my second brother. Except, I knocked my second brother out, but as for them, hehe, I won't tell you."
That must be from insect bites!
The wet nurse didn't react immediately upon hearing this.
Aunt Ji couldn't hold on any longer.
With the guards gone, what will Erlang do?
Erlang's head and face are covered in blood, we need to find a doctor right away.
She reached out to pull Qi Wenlang, but when she tried, she found that her body was also limp.
The girl returned, dragging her knife, and picked up the full moon lantern.
His cheeks puffed out, and he blew air into the lantern.
The light inside the lantern didn't go out; instead, the faint fragrance of winter plum blossoms became even stronger.
Aunt Ji finally realized what was happening.
"Granny Jiang, Third Sister has poisoned us!"
Her words made the dizziness even more pronounced.
My body felt limp, my heart was pounding, and my feet felt like they were walking on cotton.
However, he remained conscious.
Granny Jiang leaned against the doorway and looked at Qi Su.
The girl put the lantern down, a faint smile on her face.
"Thanks to you, this restaurant is now very quiet. I can do whatever I want. Even if you shout until you're hoarse, no one will hear you."
She had a smile on her face, and her voice was also smiling.
Those who listened to her were terrified.
Granny Jiang closed the door, concealing Qi Erniangzi inside.
Then Aunt Ji pleaded, "Third Sister, I know you've been wronged. That man surnamed Duan deceived you, you lost your reputation, and were hastily married off to Jincheng, where you've suffered endless torment. If you want revenge, that man surnamed Duan is right here!"
Aunt Ji realized that she could no longer understand this girl.
She looks almost the same as when she got married last year, but her behavior is like that of a completely different person.
She raised her, and San Niangzi was like her little wooden puppet.
She always knew which thread to pull and how it would control her.
However, now all those lines seem to have malfunctioned.
Qi Su smiled and said, "Yes, Auntie is right."
Having already sensed that something was wrong, Duan Ting, whose body was becoming strangely weak, and who was talking and confronting them, was already trying to sneak downstairs.
But he was very close to the lantern just now, so he smelled even more of its scent.
Now he's slumped over by the stairs, unable to lift even a finger.
Duan Ting: "Third Sister, I didn't mean to kill you just now. I've always been doing this for your own good, and I never wanted to hurt you."
Aunt Ji cursed, "You hypocritical bastard! If you hadn't seduced my third mistress, how could she have become a widow?"
Qi Su raised her hand.
"Don't argue or make a scene. Line up, everyone gets a share."
She looked around.
Qi Erlang was closest to her.
"Let's start with my second brother."
.
Qi Su dragged her knife and walked towards Qi Wenlang.
The knife tip carved a deep mark on the wooden floor.
Aunt Ji reached out to grab Qi Wenlang.
But he was powerless to do anything about it. "Third Sister, what do you want to do?"
Under their watchful eyes, Qi Su grabbed Qi Wenlang by the collar and pulled him up.
Just like he initially wanted to make Qi Su.
"Watch closely, everyone. Next, I'm going to demonstrate how to dismember someone into eight pieces."
As he spoke, he slashed the blade across Qi Wenlang's body, first cutting open his cloak.
Qi Su raised the knife above her head again.
Aunt Ji cried out in horror: "Third Aunt, Third Aunt—no! This is your brother."
Qi Su: "But Aunt, he wants to kill me."
Aunt Ji cried, "I only have this one biological son."
Qi Su: "I understand, Aunt. I'll try to be as clean as possible so that Second Brother's body looks nice, and it will look better when he lies in the coffin."
Aunt Ji cried out, "Third Aunt, I beg you!"
Qi Su lowered the butcher's knife she had raised.
His gaze swept around the room.
Everyone felt their hearts tremble as they were swept by that gaze.
This isn't some Qi San Niang, this is clearly a living Yama!
Qi Su grinned.
"Forget it. It's not good to kill with a knife. It'll leave blood everywhere, and I'm too lazy to clean it up."
As she spoke, she threw the knife on the ground.
The atmosphere in the air visibly relaxed.
Then Qi Su lifted up Qi Wenlang, who was lying on the ground, with one hand.
They dragged him from the ground to the window easily, without much effort.
Then, with a push of his arm, he actually lowered Qi Wenlang down.
Haha, you're getting too excited too soon.
Even without a knife, I have a hundred ways to kill someone.
.
Aunt Ji stared straight ahead.
No one could have imagined that a young woman could possess such strength.
Is she crazy?
Or maybe something's wrong.
Before she could speak, Qi Su said, "That day, my second brother said he wanted to drown me. I also think drowning is better; at least I'd have a complete body, clean and unstained. Let's start with him!"
Qi Wenlang, who had already awakened, could no longer pretend to be dead.
He struggled to move his fingers to reach Qi Su's arm.
Being held by your clothes and suspended in mid-air is not a pleasant experience.
But when exactly was that damned sleeping potion applied?
Little did he know that the more he struggled, the weaker his body became. Before, he had been hitting and smashing Qi Su; wasn't he the weakest person in the whole room?
"In the past, if I fell in, I could just swim back out. But now I can't swim anymore."
The river mouths on both sides were blocked by stone railings; it would probably take an incense stick to burn for someone to drown.
Qi Su was deep in thought, looking very serious.
"However, I survived being thrown into a pool by the Sun family of Jincheng. You can take a gamble; perhaps you can also survive and become even stronger."
Qi Su turned around and smiled, a sinister smile.
"Third Sister, what exactly do you want?" Aunt Ji cried out.
"Let me die in his place, just kill me!"
After all, the knife wasn't hanging over his head.
The others just watched silently, trembling.
But Aunt Ji was truly chilled to the bone.
She realized that Qi Su really wanted to kill someone.
…
Qi Su sighed.
"What do I want to do? I've just realized that none of you like me. You want me dead, but I don't want to die, so I'll just have to trouble you to die instead."
If you really don't want to die, I can be lenient. For example, you could buy your lives back from me.
"...Buy it back?"
Qi Su smiled brightly.
“Yes, Aunt. Second Brother is your own son. For your sake, how about two hundred and fifty taels of gold? Not a penny more.”
Aunt Ji was somewhat incredulous.
"You mean, you'll release your second brother if I give you two hundred and fifty taels of gold?"
Qi Su nodded.
"Yes, this is the price for Second Brother alone."
Aunt Ji: "Do other people also have prices?"
Qi Su: "That's right. Like Aunt, you are my dear mother, so you should be a bit more expensive, five hundred taels of gold."
five……
Aunt Ji was speechless.
She looked at Qi Su with teary eyes.
Qi Su shook her head at her.
"Don't cry. If you cry, you might get ten taels more."
