"Yes." Liu Qi replied.
Wu Song sorted out his thoughts and slowly said,"Now that your only brother is dead, if you don't mind, you can acknowledge me as your brother in the future. I will definitely treat you as my biological sister!”He thought for a long time and finally said his thoughts. He thought,"Although Liu San is hateful, his crime is not worthy of death. Doing this kind deed can also be considered as a little compensation for him."”
Liu Qi was suddenly stunned, as if he didn't believe it. He looked at Wu Song excitedly and asked after a long time,"Butler Wu, did I hear wrongly just now? Are you taking me in as your sister?"
"That's right." Wu Song said," I'm just afraid that you'll despise me as your brother."”
"I don't mind! How can I dislike it? I'm afraid that Butler Wu will despise me!" Liu Qi could not suppress the excitement and joy in his heart. He spoke incoherently. If it was any other time, he would have been stunned. However, because he had drunk wine, he became bolder. Suddenly, he knelt down and said,"Big brother above, accept little sister's bow!”So he kowtowed.
"Ah!" Wu Song hurriedly helped her up and said," Between siblings, we are of the same generation. Why are you giving me such a big bow?”
" Brother, brother," Liu Qi called out softly, his eyes glistening with tears." Brother, I really didn't expect that you would acknowledge me as your sister. This is really a blessing that I have cultivated for many lifetimes…" As he spoke, he threw himself into Wu Song's arms and cried.
Wu Song caressed her hair. Even he felt strange. Logically speaking, this Liu Qi was Liu San's younger sister. Although Liu San did not have a grudge against him for killing his father, he hated him for stealing his wife. However, for some reason, he felt a sense of pity for this little girl who he had only been with for two days. She couldn't help but think of her niece, Ying 'er. She wondered if she was doing well at home and if the people from the Zhu family's casino were bullying her again. It seemed that he had to go back and visit soon.
The two of them hugged for a long time before Wu Song came back to his senses. He slowly pushed Liu Qi away. He expected that Aunt Wu would leave, so he said,"It's getting late. Let's go back to our room!”Thus, Liu Qi hooked his arm around Wu Song's, and the two of them returned to their room to rest. They did not speak that night.
The next morning, after washing up, Wu Song bade farewell to Wei Luoquan and the others from the county government, then brought Liu Qi back to Li Village. Because Wu Song captured Lai Cheng and Fire Silver Fox Duan Yichun the day before yesterday, he did not sleep all night; Yesterday, he drank until late into the night, and then was tormented by Wei Luoquan's fifth aunt until midnight. He then took a walk and chatted with Liu Qi. By the time he fell asleep, it was almost dawn. He was really tired after returning to the manor, so he gave a few simple instructions and went back to his room to catch up on his sleep.
Wu Song had solved the murder of Liu San overnight, and then captured the rapist Duan Yichun of Qinghe County. News of this had spread throughout the streets in a day. The people of Li Village naturally heard about it and celebrated. Minister Li was even happier. He praised Red Aunt for her knowledge and invited a powerful figure back. In the future, she would not have to fear the Zhu family's gambling den.
When Wu Song came back, everyone wanted Wu Song to explain in detail, but Wu Song went back to his room to rest. He grabbed Liu Qi and refused to let go, asking her to explain the cause and effect. Liu Qi originally admired Wu Song, so he couldn't help but embellish it, making everyone fascinated. From then on, everyone in the village admired Wu Song.
After Liu Qi finished speaking, he hurriedly went to Hui Zhen's room. Hui Zhen also heard of Wu Song's chivalrous act and thought to herself,""I thought Brother Song killed Liu San to vent his anger, but it wasn't. I was wrong about him!”He recalled that he had married Liu San in order to save Wu Song from the county government. In the end, he had nothing left. He could not help but sigh.
"Sister-in-law!" Liu Qi called out as soon as he entered the room. Then, he pulled Hui Zhen's hand and sat by the bed." Have you heard about Brother?”
"Brother?" Huizhen was puzzled and said," Isn't your brother's case closed? I've heard a little about it."
Liu Qi blushed and said," Actually, I have an older brother. He is Butler Wu. He has already acknowledged me as his younger sister."”He was a little embarrassed, but he was quite proud. "In the future, when I say brother, I'm referring to Butler Wu. Everyone in the manor knows.”
Hui Zhen was startled. This was something she had not expected at all. She let out an 'oh', and said,"I see."
Liu Qi then recounted in detail how Wu Song captured Lai Cheng and the Inferno Silver Fox Duan Yichun, and then said,""Sister-in-law, brother is still deeply in love with you. When he is drunk, he calls your name in his dreams. I think there must be some meaning behind him acknowledging me as his sister!”
Huizhen closed her eyes in pain, tears seeping out of the corners of her eyes. She slowly said,"So what if they are deeply in love with each other? Now that I'm already a wife, do I still have the right to talk about this?”
"Why not?" Liu Qitian said innocently," Now, my brother is dead. Pei, my brother is not dead! I'm saying that Brother Liu San is already dead. You can't stay by his side forever, right? You and Brother Wu Song were originally a couple, but Brother Liu San snatched your love away. Now, why can't you return it to its original owner? Moreover, I only have Butler Wu as my brother now, and you're still my sister-in-law!”
She spoke like a tongue twister, and even she herself did not understand what she was trying to express. She was in a hurry to explain, but Huizhen said,"Stop talking. I know what you mean. It's just that things have changed. I really don't know where to go.”"Seventh Sister, I can see that you admire Steward Wu very much. If you are interested, I will speak for you!"”
Liu Qi's face immediately turned red as he argued,""How am I interested in him? He's my brother now. How can he mess up our relationship? Her brother was chivalrous and had extraordinary abilities. All women would admire him. They couldn't all marry him, right?”
Huizhen smiled and said," Don't lie to me. I'm also a woman. How can I not see through a woman's thoughts?"”
Liu Qi's face turned red. Just as he was about to relieve himself, he heard footsteps. The guard, Cheng Ziang, rushed in and shouted,"Miss Huizhen, bad news! Your father is being held hostage outside the Zhu family's casino. They want 10,000 taels of gold to redeem him!”Because Huizhen lost her husband when she first married, the servants in the manor still called her Miss Huizhen.
Huizhen stood up in shock and said anxiously,"Quickly bring me there!"”
"I think we should inform Steward Wu about this matter first," Guard Cheng asked. The people from the Zhu Family Casino are powerful. Who can deal with them?”
Huizhen pondered for a moment and said,"No need. I will handle my own matters!"”As he spoke, he left the room and followed Cheng Ziang to the manor gate. Liu Qi also followed and said,"Sister-in-law, Guard Cheng is right. This matter must be handled by brother!"”She was bent on matchmaking Wu Song and Hui Zhen and thought that this was an opportunity.
Cheng Ziang echoed," That's right. Butler Wu is famous. Even if he didn't do anything, he scared the people from the Zhu family's casino away!" I went to ask Old Master for instructions just now. Old Master replied that he would discuss it with you first. After all, it is your family matter and needs your opinion.”
"Don't say anything more. Let's go and take a look at the situation first!”It seemed that even if Wu Song did not care about her betrayal, she wanted to draw a line with Wu Song and never interact with him again. In fact, who knew the pain in her heart? Wu Song, this perfect man, had once stirred up a huge wave in her heart. Even now, although she was already a wife, she still missed Wu Song all the time, but what was the use?
