When the eldest young master of the Li family said the last sentence, the fierce light in his eyes was like that of a hungry wolf, ready to pounce and bite someone at any time.
Liu Xi swallowed.
This is the capital, not Jiangnan where the Li family is the leader.
There are many powerful people in the capital. If you investigate casually and get discovered, you will probably be in trouble.
"Master, this is the capital!"
The eldest son of the Li family turned around and glared at Liu Xi.
"So what if it's the capital? Can't I investigate someone if I want to?"
The eldest young master of the Li family knew that this was the capital. But even if this was the capital, what did it matter?
I've been looking for this person for so long, and finally I've met him here. I want to let myself give up like this, but I really can't do it.
Liu Xi lowered his head, looking embarrassed.
If it were Jiangnan, it would be easy for the young master to investigate someone. But it was different in the capital.
"Young Master, why don't we just forget it? Although our Li family's influence is influential in Jiangnan, in Beijing, our Li family..."
The meaning of Liu Xi's words was very clear.
The Li family is a prominent family in Jiangnan, but what is the capital? The capital is under the feet of the emperor!
There are many people who are more powerful than the Li family. If you offend someone you shouldn't offend, let alone your own eldest son, even if you bring out the entire Li family, it may not be of much use.
"You mean, just let it go?"
Liu Xi lowered his head and said nothing. The meaning was very clear: this was what the eldest young master of the Li family said.
"Impossible! This young master has been looking for Xue'er for so long, and finally met her in the capital. How can I just watch her suffer somewhere else?"
When Liu Xi heard this, he couldn't help but retort in a low voice.
"Well, Master, I see that Li Xue is living a good life now. She doesn't look like she's suffering at all."
In fact, it seems that life is better than at the Li family.
"Liu Xi, you don't even listen to what I say? Doesn't my words carry any weight anymore?"
Liu Xi quickly lowered his head and begged for mercy.
"I dare not. Sir, please calm down. Sir, please calm down."
The eldest young master of the Li family took a deep breath.
"Liu Xi, you also know how important Xue'er is to me. I finally found her, so how could I let her go?"
"It was because of my negligence that I allowed that bitch to take advantage of me. This time, I will never let Xue'er suffer any injustice again."
When Liu Xi heard what the eldest young master of the Li family said, he sighed inwardly.
My eldest young master is serious about this.
"Master, I understand. I will check it out right away."
After listening to this, the eldest young master of the Li family nodded.
"Well, remember to check it out."
If, if Xue'er is not living well now, I will avenge her even if I have to do my best.
Lin Jiuyue didn't know yet that because of Xiyue's incident, she had been targeted by the eldest young master of the Li family.
Even the eldest son of the Li family had already thought about how to deal with him in the future.
On the way.
Xiyue sat on the shaft of the carriage, driving it, while Lin Jiuyue sat in the carriage, with her head sticking out.
"Xiyue, is that man really the eldest young master of the Li family?"
Xiyue hesitated for a moment before nodding.
"Yes, ma'am."
After Lin Jiuyue bought Xiyue, he didn't ask much about Xiyue's previous master.
At this moment, on the way back to Shangbei Village, Lin Jiuyue was bored and started gossiping.
Although it was gossipy, Lin Jiuyue still spoke in a relaxed manner.
"Xiyue, can you tell me about the Li family and your time there?"
Xiyue was silent.
After a long time, there was no sound from Xiyue. Lin Jiuyue thought that this matter was hopeless, but unexpectedly Xiyue spoke.
"Miss, there's actually nothing much to say. If you want to hear it, I'll tell you."
"The Li family is from the Jiangnan region, where rice is produced abundantly. It's known as the land of fish and rice. Even the rice consumed by the royal family is shipped from Jiangnan."
"As a major family in Jiangnan, the Li family's financial resources cannot be underestimated."
"My parents were servants of the Li family. From the day I was born, I was destined to be a servant of the Li family."
"However, I am quite lucky. I grew up with the young master and we have a very good relationship. With the young master's protection, I have a comfortable life in the Li family. Apart from my status as a servant, the treatment I receive in the mansion is no different from that of the master."
"Before the eldest young master got married, he once told his wife that he wanted to marry me. When his wife heard what he said, she decisively refused."
Xiyue said this and smiled self-deprecatingly.
"Indeed, I am a servant, and the young master is the master. How could the Madam allow her son to marry a servant?"
Lin Jiuyue didn't say anything.
In ancient times, the social class system was strict. It was impossible for a man from a wealthy family to marry a servant. If he liked her, he could take her as a concubine. However, a concubine might not even be qualified.
But Lin Jiuyue traveled from the 21st century, and the idea that all men are created equal has long been rooted in her heart.
Although he believed that all men were created equal, he would not interfere with the system of this dynasty.
After all, the system of a dynasty is not something that a small person like me can change.
"Not long after, the Madam arranged a marriage for the Young Master. Under the Madam's persuasion, the Young Master had no choice but to marry the Young Master's wife."
Hearing this, Lin Jiuyue snorted in his heart.
If the eldest young master of the Li family really liked Xiyue that much, he wouldn't have married so easily.
Ultimately, it’s because I don’t like it enough.
"Not long after the eldest young lady came to the mansion, she learned about the affair between me and the eldest young lady from the servants. Since then, the eldest young lady has been picking on me from time to time."
"From the initial sarcasm and ridicule, to later selling my family to a man behind the young master's back."
Having said that, Xiyue shed tears sadly.
"The eldest young lady couldn't stand me and sold me off. I can understand that, but she actually sold my parents as well."
Lin Jiuyue patted Xiyue's shoulder.
"The Li family's eldest young lady sold your family out. Do you feel resentful?"
Xiyue thought about it.
"I definitely felt resentment at first, but later I realized that it would be better to sell me off rather than endure the torture of the eldest young lady in the Li family."
"Fortunately, I was lucky. The people I met were all kind and didn't separate my family."
After Xiyue finished speaking, she looked up at the sky, as if thanking God for his favor.
"I don't know what good deeds I did in my previous life, but after being sold, I met the young lady again."
When Xiyue said this, a smile appeared on her face.
