Chapter 48 The mantis stalks the cicada, but the oriole follows behind

The strange fragrance quickly dispelled the stench coming from outside, but it also made Xie Xiu and others change their expressions!

And Xie Ying was numb!

Xiangxiang got her into trouble again!

But forget it this time. The stench coming from outside is comparable to that of a biological weapon. No wonder Xiangxiang was so irritated.

As Xu's prison van drove away, the stench in the room was completely dispelled. Xie Ying immediately suppressed Xiang Xiang to prevent it from releasing any more fragrance.

At the same time, Tu Jiaojiao nervously held Xie Ying in her arms, like a tigress protecting her cub, afraid that someone would come to snatch her away.

Xie Xiu and the others came over and smelled the lingering scent on Xie Ying's body, their expressions becoming solemn.

Only the young Xie Tang opened his eyes wide and looked at Xie Ying in surprise.

He even leaned over to smell Xie Di to make sure he didn't have that smell.

Xie Rou frowned, and seeing the serious expressions on Xie Xiu and the others' faces, she also became nervous.

"Dad, sister, she..."

Just as Xie Tang opened his mouth, he saw Xie Xiu raise his index finger and gesture for silence.

Then he said, "Don't be afraid, your sister just had diarrhea, it's okay. Didn't Dad just open the incense pill? It doesn't stink now, does it?"

Xie Ying widened her eyes in frustration: "!!!"

Dad is so good at smoothing things over!

But why do you say she pooped!

Doesn’t she have any face?

Xie Tang was also surprised: Dad, when did you squeeze open the incense pill?

However, he vaguely realized that the fragrance emanating from Xie Ying was a big deal, so he wisely did not ask this question.

Xie Xiu waited for a while, making sure the prison van had gone far away, and then he opened the window to let the smell in the private room dissipate completely.

After the smell completely dissipated and could no longer be smelled, he nodded to the others and said, "The prison van has gone far away. Let's go back."

Tu Jiaojiao and others nodded cautiously and had no objection.

Xie Tang secretly touched his stomach, but didn't dare to say that he was hungry.

Originally, they had planned to go to a nearby restaurant for lunch before returning, but after what happened to Xie Ying, how could they dare to stay outside any longer?

I was afraid that something unexpected would happen again, and people would realize that Xie Ying was born different.

Xie Ying also secretly warned Xiangxiang not to release fragrance at will!

Fortunately, both times were indoors and the duration was short. Otherwise, if it had been outdoors, attracting a swarm of bees and butterflies in full view of everyone, she would have been doomed on the spot!

Oh, it's good to attract bees and butterflies.

If she attracts wasps, moths, cockroaches and flies, she will be in even more trouble.

She doesn't want to experience the same thing as in her previous life, where she was chased by a swarm of mutant wasps, mutant moths and mutant cockroaches!

Liu Zhichun walked over and opened the door. Xie Xiu and Tu Jiaojiao followed closely behind him, holding their children, with Xie Rou and Xie Tang beside them.

Tu Yong walked at the back, responsible for covering the rear.

As soon as Xie Xiu and others walked out, they were stopped by a well-dressed man.

"Did you use any incense just now? I seem to smell a particularly pleasant fragrance. What is that incense? Where did you buy it? I want to buy some too!"

Xie Xiu smiled slightly and said naturally, "I didn't buy it from outside, I just made some incense pills.

Unfortunately, the raw materials are too rare. I only got a small piece by chance and experimented many times before I got a satisfactory taste.

If it weren't for the foul smell that hit me earlier, I wouldn't have been willing to use the incense pill."

After saying this, he shook his head with regret, and walked away with the child in his arms, feeling very distressed.

The man didn't feel comfortable stopping them anymore, so he quietly stepped aside and watched Xie Xiu and the others leave.

When the figures of Xie Xiu and the others disappeared around the corner, the door of the private room next door suddenly opened, and a man in black walked out.

The man who had just stopped Xie Xiu from asking questions walked up to him and reported quietly, "It sounds like there's nothing wrong. I never thought Xie Xiu had the ability to make perfume."

"Go in and take a look."

The man in black said this lightly, and strode into the private room previously used by Xie Xiu. He sniffed carefully inside and checked the incense burner.

There was still some ashes in the incense burner, but it had been processed and nothing could be seen now.

The smell in the room had long since dissipated, leaving nothing behind.

The man in black picked up the incense burner and smelled it carefully, and felt something was wrong: if the incense ball had been burned in the incense burner, there should be residual fragrance on the incense burner.

Could it be that what Xie Xiu used was not a scent pill, but a scented lotion?

Then why did he lie?

The subordinates carefully checked the private room, but found nothing suspicious.

Seeing the black-clad man's face full of suspicion, he couldn't help but ask, "What are you suspicious about, sir? Is there something wrong with that fragrance?"

"That smell is a bit peculiar, like some rich floral scent. But there are only some bonsai trees here, and those people didn't bring any flowers, so it can only be some special incense.

But spices were expensive, and specially prepared incense was even more valuable than gold. The Tu family was just a small country landlord and could not possibly afford Xie Xiu's lavish purchase of spices.

How could he have such a special incense in his hand? If he really had mixed the incense pills himself, it would mean that he was an expert in perfumery and probably also had some knowledge of pharmacology.

If that's the case, how could Xu poison someone so easily?"

The subordinate was shocked: "Are you suspecting... that Xu didn't poison anyone, and that Xie Xiu is making a false accusation?"

The man in black chuckled sarcastically, "Whether Xu poisoned someone or not is none of my business. She offended that person, and even if she was wrongly accused, it's just bad luck. I'm just curious, how capable is Xie Xiu?"

The subordinate secretly studied his expression and tentatively asked, "Then... shall I check on him right away?"

"Go ahead, but be careful and don't let him find out."

"I obey my orders!"

The subordinate quickly took the order and left.

After he left, the man in black stood at the window, looking down at the street below, recalling how Xu's prison van passed by here.

Xie Xiu was standing here watching at that time, right?

Oh, he should be holding a child in his arms.

This person was quite lucky; after disappearing for eleven years, he not only settled down in the countryside but also had two sons and two daughters.

It really makes people jealous of this guy's luck.

It’s a pity that his good luck has probably run out.

Once Xie Xiu's identity is exposed, he will no longer have the good luck he had before.

Who made him a thorn in the eyes and flesh of others, making people want to get rid of him as soon as possible?

He was just entrusted by someone, so Xie Xiu couldn't blame him.

The man in black smiled strangely, turned around and strode out of the private room.

A transparent thread hung down from the door frame, and the moment he walked out of the private room, it buried a seed as fine as dust into his hair.

At the same time, on the carriage.

Xie Ying also raised the corners of her mouth, smiling a little strangely.

It's just that others didn't notice.

Tu Jiaojiao nervously asked Xie Xiu, "Why did you say that in the private room just now? Did you suspect someone was eavesdropping on our conversation?"

"I don't know if anyone was eavesdropping, but I'm just being cautious."

Xie Xiu spoke in a low voice, and glanced at Xie Ying in Tu Jiaojiao's arms again. Thinking of the strange fragrance that burst out from her body not long ago, he couldn't help but feel worried.

Xie Ying noticed his worried look and pinched the fragrant little bud in frustration: It's all your fault! You made me take the blame! You really screwed me over!

Xiangxiang twisted her body uncomfortably, curled up her little bud timidly, not daring to show her head, feeling aggrieved.

It clearly followed its owner's instructions and gave small gifts to the enemy, so why is its owner still angry?

Shouldn't it get some trophies to please its owner?
