Chapter 192: Neither robbery nor rape
Hu Lili quickly waved her hands: "I won't."
Su Nuobai asked her to find a room to stay in, and she lay down under the peach tree. When she opened her eyes, she saw Ziqi's face.
"It seems that the body has become much more solid, and it is not far from transforming."
Ziqi fell from the tree and looked at the Lingling grass beside him: "Thanks to it, I have benefited a lot during this period."
Feng Zhi came out of the room with two talismans in his hands: "Miss, take a look."
Su Nuobai reached out and took the talisman from his hand. It was the simplest insect repellent talisman. Although the spiritual power control was not very good, it was already considered a success.
"It seems like he's made a lot of progress recently."
Feng Zhi rarely smiled. "The spiritual energy in this courtyard is abundant. If I don't make progress, Master will probably regret accepting me."
"Feng Zhi should smile more, she looks so good." Su Nuobai looked at Feng Zhi's face with a daze.
Feng Zhi saw her blushing cheeks and asked, "Did you drink?"
Su Nuobai stretched out two fingers and gestured: "A little bit."
Ziqi shook his head helplessly: "Shall I make you a cup of peach blossom tea?"
Su Nuobai stretched out her hand and waved it weakly: "No, I'll just lie down for a while."
After saying that, she lay down on the recliner.
Feng Zhi went back to the room to get her a blanket. When he came out, he saw Lu Heyu already holding a blanket and ready to cover her.
He smiled and put the blanket in his hand back into the cabinet, then sat at the desk and continued practicing drawing talismans.
Lu Heyu looked at her pink face and smiled helplessly: "I don't know why you drank there for so long."
"I'm drinking with my mother and the others." Su Nuobai murmured.
"I'll go with you next time." Lu Heyu said as he gently covered her with the blanket.
Just as he was about to leave, she grabbed his wrist. He looked down and saw that she was still asleep.
He tried to pull his hand back but failed, and he didn't dare to use too much force for fear of waking her, so he simply sat on a chair beside her and let her pull him.
When Lu Lingyan heard that Su Nuobai had returned, she was about to run to find her, but before she entered the yard, she saw the two of them sitting together.
She quickly stopped, turned around and pulled away her mother and grandmother who were about to ask Su Nuobai if she wanted a midnight snack.
"Old man, you are so stingy. I just want to eat pork elbow, but you are so stingy."
"I just can't touch money, otherwise why would I ask a stingy old man like you to buy it for me?"
Su Nuobai was talking in his sleep angrily.
It was the first time that Lu Heyu saw this side of her: "I'll buy you whatever you want to eat. I'll also buy you anything you like."
Su Nuobai rubbed his hand with satisfaction: "This is more like it."
Ziqi looked at Mobao and Xiaojiang beside him, and the three of them finally chose to look up at the sky.
When Su Nuobai woke up, she saw Lu Heyu holding one of his hands and sleeping leaning against the back of the chair.
It took her a moment to realize what had happened last night.
She gently released the hand that was holding Lu Heyu, but Lu Heyu woke up as soon as she released it.
Lu Heyu turned to look at her, his voice hoarse from just waking up: "Awake?"
"Did I sleep holding your hand all night last night?" Su Nuobai asked after hesitating for a while.
"Well, I didn't break free because I was afraid of waking you up." Lu Heyu reached out and rubbed his sore cervical vertebrae and numb arms.
"Miss, Madam Lu prepared breakfast. Let me ask you and Lord Lu if you want to eat it?" Hu Lili put on a normal look.
"Eat. Madam Lu's cooking skills are very good. I would be stupid not to eat it." Su Nuobai cast a cleaning spell on himself.
He didn't forget to throw one for Lu Heyu as well, and then he pulled him to have breakfast.
This was the first time that Lu Heyu experienced the cleansing technique, and now he felt like he had just taken a shower.
Even the wrinkles on the clothes disappeared. The metaphysical method is really magical.
When Mrs. Lu saw the two of them running over hand in hand, her face almost broke into a smile: "Nuonuo, come quickly, I made scallion steamed buns and pumpkin porridge today."
As soon as Su Nuobai entered the room, he let go of Lu Heyu's wrist, ran to the table and sat down obediently waiting to be fed.
When Mrs. Lu saw her like this, her heart softened. The girl's obedient look of waiting for dinner made her happy every time she saw her.
Lu Heyu could only shake her head helplessly when she saw this. Food must be the first thing in her mind.
After eating and drinking, Su Nuobai prepared to set up a stall.
Lu Heyu was going to the yamen to work, so the two of them went out together, but one went to the yamen and the other went to set up a stall on the street.
Uncle Jia was no longer surprised to see her not come occasionally, and he just pulled Xiao Jiang aside and waited for him to tell him stories.
When the people nearby saw Su Nuobai coming, they all came over, whether they had something to do or not, and did not forget to buy some from Brother Zhou who was selling melon seeds and peanuts.
When Su Nuobai saw their posture, she knew that they were lining up to eat melons again. Could she shout: Please welcome the first melon to come on stage?
"Miss, there is a guest introduced by the Wu family. When are you free?" Wei Ling's voice came to her ears.
"Just ask him to come to my stall over here. I'm setting up my stall now." Su Nuobai said and ended the voice transmission.
An elderly couple had already sat down opposite her. They looked anxious and quickly took out three buns and handed them to Su Nuobai.
Old Man Wen's hands were covered with calluses, and his clothes, though without any patches, were a little pale from being washed.
"Master Su, please save my son! He didn't kill anyone!"
As he spoke, he burst into tears and wiped his tears with his sleeves.
Su Nuobai looked at the two men's faces but couldn't tell anything: "Tell me your son's birth date and time."
Old Man Wen quickly told her his birth date and time.
"Old man, what's wrong with your son?" Uncle Jia couldn't help but ask when he saw Su Nuobai calculating.
"They said my son killed his daughter-in-law. I couldn't believe it. Although my family is poor, my son is not the kind of person who would beat or scold his wife."
"The day before yesterday, my husband and I went to visit relatives. When we returned home, we heard people say that my son had killed his daughter-in-law at night."
"He has been arrested and taken to the government office, but we really can't understand why our son killed his daughter-in-law. Although they often argued, they never fought."
"Now we can't find anyone else. My son and daughter-in-law were the only ones at home at the time, so he has become the biggest suspect."
At this time, Su Nuobai withdrew his calculating hand and sent a message to Qi Yu, asking him to bring Lord Wei over.
Wei Lixian also felt that there was something strange about this case. According to Wen Zhao, he had been carrying heavy bags at the dock all day and fell asleep as soon as he got home.
He had no idea what happened in the backyard, and only found out when he woke up that his wife had been murdered.
The neighbors around did not hear the two people arguing.
If it wasn't him, who else would attack a woman, neither robbing her of her money nor raping her?
