Chapter 46: Corpse Chaser
Miao Jiang looked at them and said, "Now the news has spread in Shengjing that the body was found by a fortune teller."
Miao Miao said with some regret: "We were curious and wanted to meet this master, but when we arrived, she was gone."
Wei Lixian and the others all looked at Su Nuobai.
Su Nuobai blinked innocently, pretending not to know.
Miao Jiang rubbed Miao Miao's head and said, "Maybe we can see each other next time. Let's get down to business first."
Su Nuobai looked at the faces of the two people. The Palace of Illness was shrouded in dark clouds, and he was afraid that he would encounter danger if he went out this time.
"Are you two the only ones taking the body back?"
Miao Miao had never seen Su Nuobai before, but she found her deceptive appearance very funny: "Yes, this time it was my two senior brothers who transported her back."
Su Nuobai knew they had their own methods, but he still reminded them: "Be careful when you go out this time."
Miao Jiang looked at Su Nuobai and was a little surprised why she said that, but he still remembered it in his heart: "Thank you!"
Wei Lixian asked the yamen runners to take them to collect the body. This time, the journey back to send the body of the deceased in a foreign land was not far, and the round trip might take seven days.
Su Nuobai looked at the backs of the two people and fell into deep thought.
Lu Heyu asked, "Do they have any problems?"
"I'm afraid we'll encounter danger when we go out this time." Su Nuobai said lightly.
Lu Heyu frowned: "Corpse drivers encounter a lot of things on the road. If you don't have some skills, you probably can't do this job."
Su Nuobai nodded and said nothing more.
Lu Heyu looked at the time and saw that it was getting late: "Do you want to go back to the mansion to eat, or should I treat you?"
Su Nuobai regretted not putting two space talismans on his two little paper figures so that they could hide the food in their stomachs.
If they don’t go back now, they may not be able to prepare lunch.
"Forget about lunch today, but we can consider the afternoon meal."
Lu Heyu looked at her with a smile: "Okay, I'll wait for you at the entrance of Jiaosifang."
Su Nuobai saw Feng Zhi coming back and walked towards him: "I'm going home."
Lu Heyu looked at the direction the two people left, with some ambiguous look in his eyes.
On the way back, Su Nuobai said to Feng Zhi, "Feng Zhi, you don't have to follow me this afternoon. Go find someone to clean up the store."
Feng Zhi nodded: "Miss, what are you going to sell?"
"I haven't thought about it yet. It seems that Wei Ma's daughter has nothing to do now. I'll ask her to help look after the store when the time comes." Su Nuobai thought for a while.
Feng Zhi had no objection: "Miss, are you planning to take in those little beggars?"
Su Nuobai looked at him in surprise: "You are the roundworm in my stomach, you know such things."
Feng Zhi: "I guessed."
Su Nuobai smiled faintly and went to Aunt Luo's room.
Nanny Wei was still the same, but the worry in her eyes was hard to conceal.
After finishing her meal, Su Nuobai said, "Madam Wei, my friend has a shop that needs help. Does your daughter want to go?"
When Wei Mama heard this, she was delighted: "Miss, I wonder where you are and what you do?"
Su Nuobai told her the address, but didn't say what it was for.
Nanny Wei felt the address sounded familiar, and after thinking about it, she was shocked: "Miss, you can't go to that shop!"
"I know what you're worried about. I've had the shop looked at by a master, and it's all right now."
"We'll hire someone to clean up in the next few days. You can ask around and see if anything else will happen."
Su Nuobai was not in a hurry to ask her to agree immediately.
Nanny Wei couldn't help but feel a little worried: "Is everything really okay?"
"You'll know if you ask around these few days." Su Nuobai just smiled.
Feng Zhi gave Madam Wei five taels of silver: "Madam Wei, take this silver. If there is anything missing in this yard, just go and buy it back."
As soon as Aunt Luo saw the silver, she knew it was her monthly allowance: "Seventh Miss, this is your monthly allowance. If you give it to us, what will you do?"
"Auntie, don't worry, I have money on me." Su Nuobai pulled her and comforted her.
"How can you, a young lady who never leaves the house, get the money?" Aunt Luo definitely didn't believe it.
Feng Zhi took out some silver from his bag and showed it to her: "Auntie, look."
Aunt Luo was also shocked when she saw so much money: "Where did all this money come from?"
Su Nuobai smiled and said, "Auntie, I asked Feng Zhi to help me sell the paper figurines."
"Can a paper figurine be sold for so much money?" Aunt Luo looked incredulous.
Su Nuobai nodded seriously: "The paper figurines I made are good."
Aunt Luo did not refute this time. The paper figures she made were really good, but could they really be sold for so much money?
Su Nuobai held her hand tightly: "Auntie, I don't steal or rob. I earn my living with my own hands. You can expect a good life in the future."
Aunt Luo's eyes were filled with relief and pride, but these emotions were mixed with guilt.
Su Nuobai knew that his concubine was soft-hearted and kind to him sincerely.
When I came out of Aunt Luo's yard, I saw that it was getting late.
She put space talismans on the two little paper figures and left the yard with Feng Zhi.
This way, even if they don’t come back for dinner in the afternoon, there’s no need to worry about being exposed.
Su Nuobai changed her appearance and waited at the door of the Jiaosifang. She was not worried at all that Lu Heyu would not recognize her.
When Lu Heyu got off the carriage, he saw the young man squatting in the shady corner.
He walked towards her helplessly: "Have you been here for a long time?"
Su Nuobai looked up at him: "How did you recognize me?"
Lu Heyu just smiled and didn't intend to tell her the answer: "Let's go!"
Su Nuobai knew that she would not get an answer, so she simply stopped thinking about it and followed him towards the Jiaosifang.
When Liu Siye saw the post, he thought he had seen it wrong. It was from Lu Heyu, the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice.
Is this red rain from the sky?
He actually came to teach Sifang?
You should know that he is not only handsome and has a prominent family background, but his wealth and intelligence are also amazing.
But the master predicted that he would not live past the age of twenty, so even though he was past the age of marriage, he was still alone.
There wasn't even a maid or concubine.
All the women in Shengjing sighed, wanting to love him but not daring to.
He was really confused that such a person would come to teach Sifang.
But no matter what, it is not something that a mere official like him should offend.
Lu Heyu saw Liu Siye and said, "Master Liu."
Liu Siye quickly returned the greeting: "Lord Lu, your presence today has truly brought honor to our humble abode."
"I'm not here to have fun today. I'm just here for routine work." Lu Heyu didn't want to deal with all the beautiful girls.
Liu Siye was sweating profusely and stammered, "No, I didn't know it was the one in the Jiaosifang who had committed the crime."
Lu Heyu smiled faintly: "Don't be so nervous, I just came to take a look."
Liu Siye wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Then please, sir."
Lu Heyu glanced at Su Nuobai who was following behind him.
Su Nuobai walked into the teaching hall and saw a ghost flash by.
