The next day, Xu Mao was summoned away by the people of Wuxi Village early in the morning.

It is said that Zhao Laowu's house is haunted, causing panic among the villagers of Wuxi Village.

This ghost is really strange. Zhao Laowu insists that his leg was broken by a ghost.

Those watching from the sidelines were holding their breath for him. By the time he put his leg down, Zhao Laowu had already fainted.

Hearing Xu Mao's description, Xu Yi frowned slightly. "I only broke his leg."

"Huh?" Xu Mao's smile froze instantly.

"Then this..."

After hesitating for a moment, Xu Mao finally said, "Then could this really be haunted?"

Otherwise, there's really no way to explain why.

"Miss, the young master is inside. Why don't you go in?" Shuangxi saw her young mistress shrugging her shoulders and quietly backing away when she brought over the snacks.

"Shh!" Fu Man'er raised her index finger to make a shushing gesture, and pulled Shuangxi outside.

She just heard something incredible, so she definitely can't move closer.

Otherwise, given my brother's shrewdness, he would definitely have sensed something different.

She was terrified, just like when she cured her father's leg as a child; she was used to keeping her achievements hidden.

"Sister, sister!" Someone called out before I had even taken a few steps back.

The sound also attracted the two men inside the room. Fu Man'er immediately turned around and stood up straight.

The person who called her was Xu Genshu and Huang Si'an's son, Xu Zheng. This child is already seven years old this year, an age that even dogs would dislike.

"Sister, what are you doing?" Xu Zheng especially liked this sister. When they were young, the two siblings had done a lot of mischief.

Unfortunately, Xu Zheng is someone who knows how to protect his older sister, and Fu Man'er is also a good older sister.

It was as if the two of them had planned it together: this time you take the blame for the mistake, and next time I'll take the blame for the mistake.

In the end, one person took the blame while the other stood by crying and pleading, leaving the Xu family helpless.

Later, they simply stopped arguing and decided to punish both of them regardless of who was right or wrong.

The Xu family ancestral hall always keeps two prayer cushions, which are specially prepared for these two people.

"Hehe, I..." Fu Man'er laughed awkwardly, her mind racing as she tried to come up with an explanation.

Just then, Xu Mao and Xu Yi came out. Fu Man'er glanced at Xu Yi and then quickly looked away guiltily.

"Man'er, your second brother has something interesting to tell you." Xu Mao couldn't wait to tell you what had happened to Zhao Laowu.

This is so that everyone can think about whether this matter is really haunted.

Fu Man'er quickly shook her head, "Second brother, I don't want to listen." She was afraid that her second brother's explanation was not detailed enough, so she couldn't help but add to it herself.

"Why aren't you listening? Don't you usually love listening to these kinds of things?" Xu Mao looked at her in confusion.

Xu Zheng also said, "Sister loves hearing interesting things the most, Second Brother, please tell us quickly."

"I just saw my sister too..."

"This silly child!" Fu Man'er quickly covered his mouth, afraid that he might say something.

"I won't listen today, I'll listen another day."

"Brother, if you have nothing to do today, why don't you come with me to the shop and read some books?" Fu Man'er suddenly remembered this.

The younger generation in the family all had their own things to do. Xu Yi and Xu Wen joined the army, while Xu Mao helped manage the family's fields.

Xu Wu is quite the same kind of spirit as Xu Genshu back then. He is now a Xiucai (a successful candidate in the imperial examinations) and is preparing for the exams three years from now.

He had moved into the academy when he started preparing for the exam, and he couldn't come out easily except during the ten-day holidays when he could come back to stay for two days.

Fu Man'er has some talent in her studies, but girls are not like boys.

She studied diligently and was able to pass the imperial examinations. After graduating from school, she opened a small bookstore.

When she was very young, the Xu family had saved money for her, so the money used for this bookstore was all her own savings.

Liu Fang originally intended to fund the arrangements for her, and then save the money for Fu Man'er's dowry.

But Fu Man'er refused. Clutching her little treasury, she took out a few silver ingots and worked for several days until her little bookstore finally began to take shape.

Her bookstore was different from the others in town; generally speaking, it embraced a wide variety of ideas.

Students may not use many books for serious studies, but they have plenty of leisure books and miscellaneous notes.

Moreover, the bookstore was very large, with two floors. Books were only for rent, not for sale. Downstairs were bookshelves with books arranged by category.

Upstairs are private rooms, equipped with tea, snacks, and incense. Most women are willing to spend some money to reserve a private room upstairs to read a book and enjoy tea.

When Fu Man'er brought Xu Yi over, he looked up and saw the two big characters on the door.

Fu Kee

Well, how should I put it? This character is clearly the work of Fu Man'er; it's neither delicate nor grand.

Looking at the round and plump characters, Xu Yi was reminded of Fu Man'er's appearance when she was little, even cuter than these two characters.

"Brother, please come in." Fu Man'er stood beside Xu Yi, bowed slightly, and gestured for him to come in.

Her family thought her bookstore was just a small business and didn't expect her to make much money.

The Xu family's current wealth is enough to ensure she will never have to worry about food or clothing for the rest of her life.

However, except for the first month, her little bookstore was profitable the rest of the time.

So far, all the private rooms on her second floor have to be booked in advance. Some young ladies from wealthy families have even paid monthly fees to reserve their rooms.

Xu Yi followed Fu Man'er inside, saying, "Your bookshelf here is quite ingenious."

Ordinary people's bookshelves are square and orderly, but Fu Ji's bookshelves are all different shapes, some even crooked and twisted.

You might find one of them jarring on its own, but when they're lined up together, they just look novel.

"Hehe, a lot of young ladies in town have asked me to change the blueprints for this bookcase."

Fu Man'er raised her chin slightly with a hint of pride. From the lobby downstairs to the private rooms upstairs, every single place was the result of her racking her brains.

Books can be found everywhere, but a unique reading environment is hard to find, which is why this is one of the biggest features of Fu Chi.

“Our Man’er is really amazing, brother admires her very much.”

Xu Yi withdrew his gaze from the surroundings and began to praise the young girl generously.

Just a few words of praise and her invisible little tail will wag; she's incredibly cute.
