"Call your wife out," Huo Yunlan said irritably.
The reason Huo Yunlan didn't ask Li Zhiwei to come out was because she felt that Yao Shi was easier to talk to than Li Zhiwei.
Moreover, seeing Li Zhiwei would remind her of her younger brother's intention to marry Li Zhiwei, making her even more uncomfortable. It would be better to simply not see her.
The gatekeeper wanted to say something, but seeing Huo Yunlan's aggressive demeanor, he quickly went inside to find someone.
Just as Li Zhiwei and Xu Qingshi sat down, the gatekeeper rushed in.
"What's going on?" Uncle Zhou asked, quickly pulling the gatekeeper aside.
"Steward Zhou, Madam Qin has brought a group of people outside the door, demanding to see you!" the servant said anxiously, glancing at Li Zhiwei beside him.
After all, the lady was in poor health and rarely saw outsiders.
But she was Madam Qin, and the servant dared not offend her.
"I'll go check." Li Zhiwei frowned, thinking that it was indeed unsafe for her mother to be alone in Li'an County.
It seems we still need to bring them to the capital.
And isn't that Madam Qin the eldest daughter of the Huo family?
Could it be that she came because of my meeting with Huo Yunxuan today?
“Pretty sister, I’ll go with you,” Xu Qingshi quickly stood up and said.
"No need, you just wait here for your mother." Li Zhiwei shook her head and followed the gatekeeper and the steward outside.
"Mo Yu, call the guards, let's go check the situation together," Xu Qingshi said quickly, worried about Li Zhiwei.
As soon as Li Zhiwei arrived at the gate, she saw Huo Yunlan leading a group of people surrounding the Li family mansion.
Those who don't know the situation might think the Li family owes the Qin family money.
"Miss Huo, you've brought so many people to the outside of my Li family mansion. Is there something you need?" Li Zhiwei asked calmly.
After all, Li Zhiwei wouldn't do anything until she figured out Huo Yunlan's intentions.
"Why is it you? Where is Madam Li? Tell your master to come out." Huo Yunlan said with displeasure when she saw Li Zhiwei come out.
“My mother is not in good health. I can make decisions about the Li family. Miss Huo, or should I call you Madam Qin? Please speak frankly!” Li Zhiwei did not want to beat around the bush with Huo Yunlan.
The relationship between the two people on either side is already strained, and it probably won't get any better.
It's better to get straight to the point.
Let's see what she's up to.
Huo Yunlan frowned upon hearing this. She wanted to ask Li Zhiwei this question, but she couldn't bring herself to ask it.
However, if she didn't ask, she felt she couldn't get justice for her daughter.
“We are looking for someone in your household. The person is a four or five-year-old child who is very handsome. Today, that child injured my young lady! As long as you hand over the child, our Qin family will not hold your Li family accountable!” Deng Hong stepped forward quickly after receiving Huo Yunlan’s instructions and said.
Upon hearing this, Li Zhiwei's heart skipped a beat. She wondered if they were talking about Xu Qingshi.
Thinking about what happened today, Li Zhiwei felt uneasy.
"Is your Qin family's intelligence network really that bad? Who in Li'an County doesn't know that my Li family has no children?" Li Zhiwei was worried, but she spoke sarcastically, thinking that as long as she didn't agree, they wouldn't dare to rush in to look for her.
“I didn’t see wrong, that person went into your Li family!” Deng Hong insisted.
Li Zhiwei frowned, about to refute again.
"Pretty sister!"
A sudden voice came from behind.
