Chapter 112: Secret Letter
"If Fourth Sister says so, this young brat Han really has some ability!" Second Mistress Li frowned slightly and said slowly.
"Actually, not to mention anything else, his composure is much stronger than the impostor last time. I remember that Young Master Wu was fascinated by my Heavenly Fox Charm for a whole day before recovering. But this Han person only felt a bit fascinated at the beginning, but immediately cleared up, which shows that his mental power is extraordinary, not an ordinary person!" Third Mistress hesitated for a moment, sighed, and still said what was in her heart.
As soon as this sentence came out, the three of them were silent, each thinking about something, and it seemed there was something they couldn't speak out.
After a while, Madam Yan smiled bitterly and finally took the initiative to speak first: "This person is so powerful, I don't know if it's a disaster or a blessing for our Mo Mansion?"
"Take out the secret letter and look at it, and you will understand!" Before Madam Yan's voice fell, the voice of the cold young lady, Fifth Mistress, came from outside the house, and she walked in slowly.
"I have already checked, there is absolutely no outsider within two hundred meters, and the sentries and guards have been strengthened by another fold!" Fifth Mistress said without any expression.
Madam Yan lowered her head and thought for a while, and finally opened her mouth.
"You must all remember what my husband said when he left. After he left, if the letter brought by someone was an open letter without a secret letter, it meant he was safe and sound, and we could rest assured. If the letter brought indicated that there was a secret letter hidden, then it was very likely that bad news would be transmitted, letting us be mentally prepared. As for this letter..."
"We have all seen it. This letter indeed indicates that there is a secret letter hidden. Whether it is good news or bad news, this is something we have to face sooner or later. Let's make the secret letter appear." Third Mistress's voice was no longer charming, but full of pain.
"Alright! Since everyone is prepared, let's make the secret letter appear!" Madam Yan said decisively.
She didn't hesitate anymore, took a teacup from the table nearby, picked up a water pot, and poured half a cup of cold water into it. Then she twisted the dragon-shaped ring on her finger a few times, and actually twisted the ring into two halves, revealing the white medicinal powder hidden in the interlayer.
Madam Yan carefully poured the medicinal powder into the teacup, and then looked at the others.
Under Madam Yan's gaze, Second Mistress Li stood up first.
She walked to the table nimbly, raised her hand slightly, and there was a same ring on her white finger.
Li also took out quite a bit of medicinal powder from the ring and poured it into the teacup. Only the color of her medicinal powder was red, looking different from Madam Yan's.
Then Third Mistress and Fifth Mistress made the same move one by one. They also had a dragon-shaped ring, and the medicinal powder hidden inside was yellow and black respectively.
After everyone had done what they should do, Madam Yan picked up the teacup and shook it gently. As a result, the colorful liquid in the cup became clear and transparent in the gentle shaking.
"Alright, the revealing water has been prepared. Second Sister, you are the most skillful! This matter of applying it to the letter should be done by you, Sister!" Madam Yan said modestly to Second Mistress Li.
Li heard Madam Yan's words, smiled slightly, and didn't decline, taking the medicinal water and the letter, and began to work with her head lowered.
For the next period of time, except for Li applying the medicinal water to the letter, the others were silent, making the atmosphere in the room even more tense.
"Done, the letter paper has been applied all over. Next, Fifth Sister should help, use internal power to dry it!" Li straightened up, wiped the fragrant sweat from her forehead, and said to Fifth Mistress with a smile.
The cold young lady nodded, took the wet letter paper nimbly.
She then stretched out her other hand, operated her power slightly, letting her palm emit a faint heat, and then placed the letter paper two or three inches above her palm and stopped, baking it slowly like this.
After a while, the letter was completely dry, and the black ink on the letter had vanished, instead revealing some faint red characters. This was the letter Doctor Mo had spent his efforts to let Han Li bring to his wife and daughters—the secret letter.
Han Li didn't know what happened in the room after he left. At this moment, he was having a headache because of the little demon in front of him!
This Mo Third Young Lady actually openly asked him for a so-called "Senior Brother meeting gift" halfway.
"What gift does Junior Sister want?" Han Li had no choice but to pinch his nose, preparing to satisfy the other party's request.
"Anything like jewelry, fun or interesting things will do, I'm not very picky! If it really doesn't work, giving seven or eight thousand taels of silver is also barely acceptable, that also counts as you passing the test!" Mo Mo Caihuan blinked her black eyes, saying innocently.
"Seven or eight thousand taels of silver?" Han Li almost fell to the ground upon hearing this. "This little demon is really opening her mouth like a lion. She's not afraid of strangers at all!"
Han Li didn't have that much silver on him even if he counted every bit. And even if he did, he couldn't really give it to her. She really took him for a sucker! And she didn't even know that he was poisoned by her father and could lose his life at any time!
In a fit of anger, Han Li simply looked up at the sky without changing his expression, motionless. He wanted to see how this little demon could take advantage of him!
Mo Mo Caihuan was also clever to the top, seeing through Han Li's thoughts at a glance.
She pouted her small mouth, deliberately shouting in surprise: "Han Senior Brother, you wouldn't give any gift to a cute Junior Sister you're meeting for the first time, right! You must know, that Young Master Wu who came the year before last gave me a bank note of more than ten thousand taels as pocket money as soon as we met!"
Han Li was furious upon hearing this! That was the Wu person plotting to take your family's wealth and beauty! I don't have any such thoughts at all, and now I'm still poisoned by your father, and could lose my life at any time!
Han Li, in a fit of anger, simply looked up at the sky without changing his expression, motionless. He wanted to see how this little demon could take advantage of him!
Mo Mo Caihuan saw that this country-looking black kid was actually playing dumb and not saying a word, not paying any attention to her at all. She couldn't help but feel a bit anxious in her heart!
Ever since she swindled a large sum of private money from that impostor a year ago, she had dreamed every night of having another big sucker come to her door for her to knock hard.
Now that she finally had another chance, this guy who looked like he should be her father's true disciple was soft and hard to eat, and his skin was thicker than a city wall. How could he be so stupid and play dumb to such a cute girl like her! Didn't he see that her tears were about to come out! But he was still unmoved, really infuriating!
