Chapter 84 Teacher Lin Xi
Su Nuobai did not find any useful clues in the manor. After letting Xie Gungun take Lvliu away, she also returned to the Su Mansion.
The Su Mansion was filled with gloom and sorrow; even in the distant Qinxin Garden, one could hear the servants crying softly.
Aunt Luo could not leave Qinxin Garden without permission, and she waited anxiously for Nanny Wei to come back with news.
Su Nuobai walked out of the room: "Auntie."
Aunt Luo saw her come out, walked over to her and held her hand: "I don't know what's going on, but the house suddenly feels very strange. I asked Wei Ma to find out the news."
Su Nuobai looked at her: "Auntie, have you ever thought about leaving?"
Aunt Luo held her hand, which trembled slightly: "Why, why do you ask?"
Su Nuobai pulled her to sit on a stool in the yard: "That person has been waiting for you."
Aunt Luo quickly reached out and covered her mouth: "Seventh Miss, there are some things you can't say carelessly. If outsiders hear it, I'm afraid it will cause trouble again."
Su Nuobai pulled down her hand and looked at her seriously: "Auntie, answer me carefully, do you want to leave?"
Aunt Luo's eyes trembled slightly as she looked towards the high wall in the yard.
How could she not want to leave? She dreamed of leaving this cage. If she had not gone to the mansion to deliver fish, would nothing have happened?
Thinking of this, she looked at Su Nuobai and suddenly felt that God was fair. At least he gave her a well-behaved and filial daughter.
Although she can't call her mother, she is very content to be able to be with her now.
Su Nuobai looked at the changes on her face and said, "Auntie, let's leave together!"
Aunt Luo looked at her in surprise, then smiled bitterly and said, "Silly child, Auntie can't leave just like that."
Su Nuobai naturally knew that since she wanted to leave, he would find a way.
Nanny Wei ran in anxiously, and when she saw Su Nuobai in the yard, she felt at ease for some reason.
"Auntie, Miss Seven, something happened on the farm."
Aunt Luo's heart skipped a beat: "What happened?"
"Everyone in the manor is dead, and the fourth young lady is missing. The Ministry of Justice has summoned the master for questioning. When the mistress heard this, she fainted."
"The whole house is in chaos now. I don't know where the Second Young Master has gone. There's not even anyone in charge."
Aunt Luo was thinking in her heart, if her daughter had not returned from the farm, would she have encountered the same thing as today?
She held Su Nuobai's hand a little tighter.
Su Nuobai patted her hands: "Auntie, I'm here perfectly fine, aren't I?"
When Aunt Luo heard her words, she felt a lot more at ease.
Butler Mu came to Qinxin Garden in the evening and said, "Seventh Miss, the master asked me to tell you that you must not be late tomorrow."
Su Nuobai was a little surprised and thought that because of this incident, her studies might have to be postponed.
Butler Mu looked around and saw no one around before he whispered, "The fourth young lady is someone the master can dispose of."
Su Nuobai understood, so her fourth sister was an abandoned person, and it would not have any impact whether she disappeared or not.
Even if she is found, it is impossible to let her return to the Su Mansion.
"Thank you, Butler Mu. I will be there on time tomorrow."
Butler Mu bowed and left.
Su Nuobai looked at the golden light of luck above his head, which was not as bright now.
It seemed like she hadn't drawn on the Su family's luck for a while, and it looked like they were on their way down.
Feng Zhi came to call her early in the morning: "Miss Qi, you should get up."
Su Nuobai opened her eyes reluctantly, turned over and sat up to wake herself up a little.
Feng Zhi waited until she was dressed before going into the room to do her makeup: "Do you want me to go with you?"
"No need, I should be back soon." Su Nuobai still had some confidence.
The female teacher went directly to the inner courtyard. She was supposed to pay a visit to Cai, but when she heard that she was ill, she had to give up.
A maid took her to the study room that was previously used by the inner courtyard ladies: "Mr. Lin, Miss Seven is already waiting inside."
Lin Xi thanked the nanny who led the way, took a deep breath, and pushed the door open before walking in.
Su Nuobai looked at the woman who came in. She was wearing a long black gown, her hair was combed neatly and pinned behind her head with a wooden hairpin. She was only about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, but she looked old and solemn.
"Nuobai has met sir."
Lin Xi had heard some rumors about Su Nuobai, so he felt a little reluctant to take on this job.
Her husband has been in poor health for the past two years and has spent a lot of money on medicine and medical treatment.
Now even the elderly and children at home are sick. If the Su family hadn't offered a high salary, she really wouldn't be willing to come.
"Miss Seven, you're welcome. Let's get started!"
Su Nuobai noticed a faint yin energy around her, and her marriage palace was a little dark: "Is anyone in your family sick?"
Lin Xi wasn't surprised she would ask that: "I'm feeling a little unwell."
Su Nuobai: "It probably started in the last two years. At first, I was a little weak, and then it became a long-term illness. It's gotten worse recently."
"Even in the past two years, nothing you do has gone smoothly, and there have been so many troubles."
Lin Xi's hand that was about to put down the book paused. How could Miss Su Qi know all these things?
Su Nuobai sat on a stool nearby: "I suggest that you move to a new room, sir."
Lin Xi looked at Su Nuobai and saw that she didn't seem to be joking. "Seventh Miss, what do you mean by that?"
"Sir, if you believe me, just rent a place to stay for a while. After all, it's not as expensive as the medicine. If you don't believe me, just ignore what I said." Su Nuobai said with a smile.
Lin Xi was a little surprised and confused, but still a little excited. Could it really be a problem with the house?
Su Nuobai sat down, picked up a brush and wrote a poem on the paper, then stood up and put it on Lin Xi's desk: "Sir, how about we work together?"
"You still come to teach me every day, just for the sake of formality, and you take the money. When others ask you about it, you just say I'm dull."
Lin Xi lowered her head to look at the paper on the table. The handwriting on it was vigorous and powerful, with a sense of freedom. This poem made people feel her broad mind.
This is definitely not the illiterate person that others say she is, she is clearly a talented and well-educated woman.
The little knowledge I have is just a mere showing off in front of her.
"Miss Seven is hiding her incompetence."
Su Nuobai smiled faintly: "I am just a concubine's daughter. It is not a good thing to show off my talents."
Lin Xi understood immediately: "Miss Qi, you can do as you please from now on. If anyone asks about it, I will also excuse you."
Su Nuobai took out a few folded amulets from her bag and put them in her hand: "Let me try this, sir. If it works, remember to give me some silver! One hundred coins each."
After saying that, he waved goodbye and left the study.
Lin Xi looked at the amulet in his hand, which was exactly the number of people in their family.
She felt the coldness in her body dissipate and she felt warmth.
Now I am thinking about whether I should move to another house.
