Chapter 197 Qi's Story

Ever since he sensed that there was going to be a storm in the capital a few days ago, Jiang Youning specifically told Ah Qi to find a safe place to hide and not go out for the next few days.

"A few days ago, Ah Qi told me that he might have a family. The next day, he made up his mind to go and see them. He also promised me that he would come to see me when he settled down. But he has been gone for three days and has not returned yet."

The little beggar spoke slowly.

There was worry in his eyes, and it didn't seem fake.

"Okay, thank you for telling us this. Get up and we will help find someone."

Jiang Youning spoke slowly.

Ah Qi and Xiao Fan Tong are both sources of gossip for Jiang Youning. As long as they are friends, she is still willing to help them with a small favor.

The little glutton is the lovebird, because it eats all kinds of grains and is still alive and kicking after eating and cannot die at all, so it is given the title of little glutton.

Xiaofantong has met Ah Qi.

After returning home.

Jiang Youning used a bag of spicy strips as a lure to let the little glutton out.

Afterwards, she went to find Jiang He again. Jiang He had enough people under his command, so it was very convenient for him to find people.

Before dark.

The little rice bucket flew back.

"Second brother has found the beggar! Second brother has found the beggar!"

Jiang Youning instantly perked up.

"Where are the people?"

"Guest room in the front yard!" The little glutton flapped his wings twice, "Spicy strips, I want spicy strips!"

"Okay, okay! Here you go!"

Jiang Youning had no choice but to take out a bag of spicy strips and give it to it.

Afterwards, she quickly ran to the front yard.

Ah Qi didn't seem to be injured. He washed himself and changed into clean clothes, revealing a handsome face.

Seeing a doctor checking Ah Qi's pulse, Jiang Youning walked over quietly.

When Jiang He took the doctor to prescribe medicine, Jiang Youning looked at Ah Qi who had been quiet from beginning to end.

When Ah Qi saw Jiang Youning, his cloudy eyes became noticeably clearer.

It was quiet all around. The corners of his mouth moved for a long time before he finally uttered a few words: "Sixth Miss, thank you for saving me."

"Tell me, don't you have no relatives in the capital? Where did your family come from?"

Jiang Youning poured himself a cup of tea, said this, and waited patiently.

Since they were at home anyway, Ah Qi remained silent and she was not in a hurry to urge him.

Jiang He knew that Ah Qi was very wary, so he did not come in to disturb him after prescribing the medicine.

Finally.

Ah Qi simply lay down on the bed.

He looked up at the roof aimlessly, and was indecisive for a long time before he spoke.

"Sixth Miss, I told you before that I have an aunt. Her family left Beijing more than ten years ago, but they came back a few days ago.

My aunt went to my dilapidated little yard for several days in a row and told the neighbors that she just learned that my mother had passed away and wanted to find me and take me back to live a good life.

"So, did they lie to you? I remember that you said at the beginning that you had never met your aunt?"

Jiang Youning was a little surprised.

"My aunt looks a lot like my mother. At first I thought it was my mother who came back to see me."

When talking about this, the corners of Ah Qi's eyes turned red.

"She is as gentle as my mother. She doesn't mind my dirtiness. She will hug me and cry. She will tell me about my mother's past. She also cooks for me and sews clothes for me.

Sixth Miss, I haven't felt that kind of care for a long time since my mother passed away.

So...when my aunt said she wanted to take me home, I was moved."

"But... I didn't expect that when I got up in the middle of the night after returning to the little house with her, I accidentally overheard her conversation with my uncle.

It turned out that they had a son, and in recent years, their son had contracted a strange disease. A witch told them that they needed to draw blood from a close relative of similar age to make medicine, and drink the blood for 49 days before their son's disease could be cured.

"I wanted to escape, but I didn't expect to be watched closely by them. I couldn't go anywhere except that house, but I didn't dare to confront them head-on."

After saying this, Ah Qi turned his head and looked at Jiang Youning.

"Sixth Miss, thank you, thank you for saving me from that prison."

After listening to the bedtime story, Jiang Youning got up.

"Well, have a good rest. I'll come to see you tomorrow."

"Sixth Miss!"

However, when Jiang Youning was about to leave, Ah Qi called her back again.

She turned her head and saw Ah Qi who seemed to have made up his mind: "Sixth Miss, don't you like to hear gossip in the capital? I have an old story in the capital here, which should be considered as the capital's secret now. Are you willing to listen?"

As soon as Ah Qi said this.

Jiang Youning's legs automatically fell back and he sat down without hesitation.

The appeal of the word "secret" is so great that it is tempting enough for a melon-eating expert.

"This old story started more than ten years ago..."

Ah Qi's eyes became blurred again.

"My father's death in the palace was not accidental...but he accidentally overheard a secret conversation.

He knew he was in danger of death, so he secretly left a farewell letter for his mother and asked a good friend to take it out of the palace.
