After the mistress of the Marquis's Mansion awakened, she no longer wanted to be the mistress o

"Su Yunshan?"

Hearing this, Lord Li looked at her in astonishment, "Qingwan, how did you know?"

"Uncle, listen to me. This man is not an honest businessman. He is smuggling opium privately. This matter will be investigated soon. You'd better stay away from him!"

"what?"

Lord Li was naturally very surprised to hear this. He wanted to remind his niece to be careful of Sima Yue, but he didn't expect that she would know that he knew Su Yunshan and even investigated Su Yunshan thoroughly?

"Qingwan, how do you know these things? Boss Su is a serious businessman."

"Uncle, please take a look at this first."

In fact, Li Qingwan had been looking for these clues in private for a long time, with the purpose of seeing her uncle in person today to tell him the truth and avoid the tragedy of her previous life from being discovered again.

When Lord Li took the letter from her hand and read it carefully, he looked at Li Qingwan in disbelief, "Qingwan, you..."

"Uncle, I just want the Li family to be well, you must believe me!"

Just as Lord Li was about to say something, he heard an anxious voice behind him, "Qingwan, Qingwan!"

Sima Yue was worried that Lord Li had already known his secret, so he immediately came over to stop him, but unexpectedly, he saw Li Qingwan and Lord Li looking at him with complicated expressions.

This made Sima Yue even more nervous, as this was what it was like to be a guilty thief.

"Sima Yue pays his respects to his uncle!"

He was very nervous, but still calm. When Lord Li saw that he had come, he immediately put the envelope away and smiled brightly, "Ah Yue, Qing Wan and I have already talked. Come and sit down."

"Ayue, why don't you come over?"

Sima Yue saw that Lord Li was not angry. Could it be that he was overthinking it?

"Yes, I'll be right there."

Sima Yue also came over and sat down. Because there were outsiders present, Lord Li spoke politely, "Ah Yue, you survived a disaster. You must treat my Qing Wan well in the future and not bully her. Do you understand?"

Seeing that Lord Li cared so much about Li Qingwan, Sima Yue knew that this stepping stone of theirs was very useful, so he naturally smiled and said, "Uncle, don't worry, Qingwan is my wife. I owe her a lot, and I will treat her twice as well as I can."

After hearing all this nonsense, not only Li Qingwan didn't believe it, but Lord Li didn't believe it either. He had long known what kind of person Sima Yue was. How could a man like this treat his wife well?

But Qingwan said that she was living very well in Sima Mansion, and it was not easy for him to break them up. After all, they were married, so what else could he do?

"That's good!"

"Qingwan, have you mentioned this to your uncle?"

Sima Yue saw that his affair had not been exposed, so he wanted to ask for the result. However, when he heard this, Lord Li pretended to be puzzled, "Qingwan, what's the matter?"

Li Qingwan coughed and said, "Uncle, this is what happened. Ah Yue has been back for quite some time. He has no interest in doing business. I would like to ask you to lend him a hand and find him a job to do first."

"Yes, uncle, I will do my best!"

Hearing this, Lord Li understood something and said, "I will keep this matter in mind!"

Sima Yue: “…”

Is this a promise or not?

"In that case, thank you very much, uncle!"

Sima Yue was a little embarrassed, but after all, he was asking for help, so his attitude was still very good, and Li Qingwan coughed, "Ayue, go and invite your aunt."

She deliberately sent Sima Yue away. When Lord Li saw Sima Yue leave, he sighed and said, "Qingwan, don't worry. Now that you have asked, your uncle will definitely help you."

"No, uncle, I hope you will take care of yourself."

"cope?"

Lord Li frowned when he heard this. What did Qingwan mean? Didn’t she come here to seek a career for her husband?

"Qingwan, what do you mean by this? Uncle doesn't understand?"

It was noon and the sun was high in the sky.

When Li Qingwan and Sima Yue were about to leave, Lord Li personally saw them off and said, "Qingwan, come often in the future."

"Uncle, take care of yourself."

"Goodbye, uncle!"

Sima Yue was in a good mood. Lord Li finally agreed to his request. He was about to become an official!

When they went out, Li Qingwan happened to see a carriage parked in front of the Li Mansion, and the person who got off was Su Yunshan, the murderer who killed her uncle's family in the previous life!

Su Yunshang is about forty years old, a wealthy man. On the surface, he is in the porcelain business, but secretly he is smuggling opium. He is a cruel and ruthless person.

After Su Yunshan came out, he also met Li Qingwan, but Li Qingwan ignored him and got into the carriage with Sima Yue. After they left, Su Yunshan asked the servant next to him.

"Who was that girl just now?"

The attendant thought for a moment and bowed slightly, "My lord, it seems to be the wife of the Sima family, the niece of Lord Li."

"Li Qingwan?"

Su Yunshan knew Li Qingwan's name. Was she the one who stole the Su family's business?

"Go see Lord Li first!"

Unexpectedly, Su Mingshan hit a wall. The housekeeper said that Lord Li was not in the Li Mansion, which made Su Mingshan a little unhappy. Not there?

Didn’t he just meet his niece? Why did she disappear when he arrived?

"Master, what should I do?"

Su Mingshan could tell at a glance that it must be that Li Qingwan who said something in front of Lord Li. A fierce look flashed across his eyes, "Go back first!"

After Su Yunshan left, the couple was still standing behind the door. Madam Li didn't understand why the master refused to see Su Mingshan. "Master, Boss Su brought us good fortune, why did you refuse to see him?"

"Madam, there is something wrong with Su Mingshan. I don't want my reputation to be ruined by him!"

"Master, did Qingwan say something to you?"

In the luxurious carriage, Sima Yue saw that Li Qingwan was silent, so he coughed and said, "Qingwan, what did your uncle say? Which government office does he plan to assign me to?"

Seeing Sima Yue so anxious, Li Qingwan shook her head and said, "My uncle said he would arrange it, but as for where and when, I don't know."

"How many days?"

"Ayue, you have to know that your uncle is an honest official. He would not bother to do those things. If it weren't for my face, he would not even see you!"

These words made Sima Yue feel a little embarrassed. He didn't understand. Since Li Qingwan married him, she was his. Wasn't it natural for her to come forward to help him?

But he still coaxed Li Qingwan. After all, he had to rely on her to embark on his official career, and he couldn't offend her now.

"Qingwan is right. You are the one who helped your husband in his career..."

"Okay, Ah Yue, there's no need to say those polite words. We are husband and wife, isn't it my duty to help you?"

Sima Yue: “…”

Li Qingwan had said everything he wanted to say. What else could he say? He was about to continue to coax Li Qingwan, but suddenly, a scream came from outside...

"what!"

"What happened?"
