Chapter 64 I thought Lord Lu had gone back to rest

Su Nuobai looked at the child who ran in. After washing and changing into clean clothes, she could hardly recognize him.

“I almost didn’t recognize him.”

The child scratched his head a little embarrassedly and said, "Sir, thank you for taking us in, giving us a place to stay, and giving us food."

Su Nuobai found a place to sit down. The shop only had simple gold ingots and candles. "Aren't you afraid that this is a haunted house?"

"We don't know whether this house is haunted or not, but nothing strange has happened since we moved in!" A group of little beggars stood opposite her.

"Do you have names?" Su Nuobai looked at the older beggars.

A group of little beggars shook their heads: "We don't have a name."

"Excuse me, can I come in?" Wei Ling stood outside the shop and asked nervously as she looked at the people inside.

Su Nuobai turned to look outside the door: "Come in quickly!"

When Wei Ling saw someone familiar, her eyes widened: "Master, why are you here?"

Su Nuobai said with a smile: "I bought this shop."

Wei Ling's anxiety disappeared instantly. With such a capable person, there should be no problem here.

Su Nuobai looked at her: "You were introduced by Miss Su Qi, you are quite courageous."

Wei Ling smiled a little embarrassedly: "I just didn't expect this shop belonged to the master."

"I'll give you two taels of silver every month. You'll be in charge of managing this shop and helping these children make paper figurines."

Su Nuobai thought for a moment and asked, "Can you read?"

Wei Ling nodded quickly: "Yes, my father was a steward in the Su Mansion when he was alive, and he taught me some."

Su Nuobai nodded: "Then these children and the shop will be handed over to you from now on."

She pointed at the group of children and said, "They are all beggars and have no names. The task of naming them is also left to you."

"Ah!" Wei Ling looked at a group of children looking at her eagerly, and felt under great pressure in an instant.

Su Nuobai patted the small bag on her back and said, "Mobao, come out and hand the purse to Wei Ling."

Mobao came out of the pocket with a purse in his mouth.

When a group of children saw it, their eyes widened. They looked at the palm-sized bag on Su Nuobai's body, and wanted to know how it got in.

Wei Ling reached out and took the purse from Mo Bao's hand. When she opened it, she saw that it was full of silver notes worth hundreds of taels, totaling several thousand taels.

"Master, this is too much."

"It's okay, take it. When you have time, use the money to help me do charity work. Don't let these children suffer. If they are talented and can go to private schools, send them there."

"If they can learn a craft, send them there. In short, don't save money for me. But I have one thing to remind you."

"Money should not be used carelessly, for extravagance, or for any other purpose, or you will be unlucky!"

Wei Ling wrote down her words: "I remember them."

"My last name is Su. You can call me Master Su or Boss Su." Su Nuobai said and let her arrange it herself.

Wei Ling had never seen such a boss before. He gave her such a large sum of money without even caring whether the store made money or not.

But since the master trusts her, she has to do these things well.

Su Nuobai sat aside and watched.

Wei Ling arranged these children in an orderly manner, separating the boys and girls and re-planning their living quarters.

They also have to consider the issue of feeding so many mouths. Before she came, these children would buy two meat buns every day to eat at noon and dinner.

Seeing that Wei Ling had arranged everything well, Su Nuobai quietly left the store.

"Master Su, I'd like to invite...the cook." When Wei Ling came out, she found that everyone was gone.

It seems that she has to make the decision on her own. Since she is doing charity, she will find people who need help and help them.

Su Nuobai came out of the shop and stretched, and saw that everyone in the shops on this street was secretly looking at her.

She quietly returned to the Su Mansion.

Feng Zhi felt her presence and went to her room, where he saw her flipping through the files in her hand.

He quickly closed the door and asked in a low voice, "Miss, why are you back?"

Su Nuobai said without raising his eyes: "If there is nothing, I came back to see you. Is there anything going on in the mansion?"

"As soon as you left, your mother asked someone to wait at the door, as if waiting for us to go out." Feng Zhi thought of the person squatting outside.

Su Nuobai flipped through the files: "She's quite quick."

Feng Zhi leaned against the door beside him: "Aren't you going to take care of her?"

"Don't worry about her. As long as you don't let my aunt and Nanny Wei go out, she can't do anything to me." Su Nuobai saw a very strange case in the file.

Feng Zhi saw her frowning, walked over to her and took a look: "There are several similar cases, but they didn't happen in the same place."

Su Nuobai asked Feng Zhi to help find all these files.

The two of them found all the similar files.

Feng Zhi looked at the relevant people in the file: "They all died suddenly, and they all had smiles on their faces when they died, as if they had had a beautiful dream."

Su Nuobai compared these files. A nightmare? A demon? Or some other reason?

Although it was strange, she had never seen the deceased and could not be sure how they died.

"I'll ask Lord Lu to check later to see if they have any overlapping trajectories." Su Nuobai closed the file and looked at the sky outside.

She looked at Feng Zhi and asked, "How's your training going?"

Feng Zhi was a little depressed: "I can only understand the first sentence."

"That's pretty good. Once you understand everything, you'll be considered an entry-level expert." Su Nuobai said, then stood up and stretched his body. "Don't worry about the store. Wei Ling has already taken over."

Feng Zhi nodded: "Miss, are you going back? How about I buy some food and you can eat it before going back."

Su Nuobai smiled and waved her hand: "No need. Lord Lu has already ordered food for me at Fuju Restaurant, so I won't be hungry."

Feng Zhi was slightly stunned, then said: "Miss, please be careful."

Su Nuobai took out a folded paper crane from her bag and handed it to him: "If you need anything, just blow into it."

Feng Zhi took the thousand paper cranes and put them away carefully.

Su Nuobai left the Su Mansion and went directly to Fuju Restaurant. The waiter delivered a table of dishes to the private room and was a little puzzled.

Why would my young master prepare so much food, and it’s just for one person?

Su Nuobai didn't care what the waiter was thinking, he picked up the chopsticks and prepared to eat.

The door of the private room was pushed open at this time.

Su Nuobai didn't even turn his head. He reached out and picked up the food he wanted to eat with chopsticks and put it in the bowl: "I thought Lord Lu went back to rest."

Lu Heyu smiled and walked over to sit down opposite her: "Miss Su Qi, can you bear to let me go back hungry to rest? That really hurts my heart."
