Chapter 387 Shopkeeper Zhu
The Hu family has been in Canxin City for so many years, how could they be so unfamiliar with Wangliu's affairs?
Mo Jiuwei was secretly shocked, but just as she was feeling disappointed, she let Ruojiu speak again, "However, you can go to Zhanxin Hall and ask. The shopkeeper Zhu there is from Wangliu, and it seems that he has a high status in there."
"Zhanxintang?" Xueying spoke up at this time, "Master, I went to that shop to ask, but they didn't have what we need."
After going to the black market, Mo Jiuwei asked the maids to go to various big shops in the city to inquire about the remaining materials. Xueying had been to Zhan Xintang.
Because this shop was quite grand and occupied a large area, and the customers in the shop were obviously wealthy, and there were no poor casual cultivators, so Xueying had a very deep memory of it.
"Are you asking about Shopkeeper Zhu?" Ren Rujiu asked.
Xueying shook her head. "No, I didn't see any shopkeeper at that time, only clerks."
"That's it. We can only ask Shopkeeper Zhu himself to get some results. But... this man has a bad reputation. He is greedy and lustful."
Ren Rujiu's gaze swept across the faces of the seven maids, with worry in his eyes.
The shock is doubled when a group of beauties appear together. Mo Jiuwei's seven maids are more beautiful than each other, and the most important thing is that they are not dull and polite wooden beauties, but lively and smiling all the time. Who wouldn't like them?
No wonder my son couldn't help but approach and chat with them when he saw them. If my son is like this, what about the lustful Shopkeeper Zhu?
"How about this, Ruojiu, you take the servants from the mansion to accompany Miss Mo to Zhanxin Hall. Her maids can wait at home or outside the shop. They should not go in together to avoid any trouble."
Hu Lian also thought of this and proposed it directly.
Ren Ruojiu nodded, looked at Mo Jiuwei and asked for her opinion.
"Okay, then I'll have to trouble you, auntie. You can go with me in my animal cart." Mo Jiuwei nodded in agreement, "Huang Ye, you guys wait for me at the Hu family first, I'll be back soon."
The animal cart couldn't hold so many people, and there was no point in taking so many people with it.
And considering the safety of the maids, Mo Jiuwei didn't want them to catch the eye of Shopkeeper Zhu and cause trouble.
The maids were a little reluctant, but they had to agree.
They knew that all they could do were some daily chores, and they were more useless than each other in protecting their master's safety.
If you insist on going, you might become trouble for your master.
Mo Jiuwei and Ren Rujiu got on the beast cart, along with four servants.
Hu Xiu also clamored to come along, and Mo Jiuwei was casual about such small matters, so she nodded.
As soon as Ren Rujiu entered the car, he was amazed at it. "It's really something special. You can't tell from the outside that it's so big inside. This is the first time I've seen a car like this. I'm afraid it's hard to find even if you have millions of dollars!"
It is so exquisite and comfortable, with no sense of bumps at all. It is obvious that both the beast pulling the cart and the beast cart are first-rate.
Ren Ruojiu was almost having his occupational disease act up. When he saw this good stuff, he subconsciously thought: If this were put in his own auction house, how much would it fetch?
"This was tailor-made for me by my relatives and friends. It took some ingenuity to make it." Mo Jiuwei said with a smile.
I see. It seems like it won't work to buy a few more cars for auction.
Ren Ruojiu understood the elegant meaning of the song from the music, and after he had a clue in his mind, he did not open his mouth to offend others, but changed the subject naturally.
As Mo Jiuwei expected, Ren Rujiu asked about her origins.
"Don't blame me for being nosy. If it's convenient for you to talk, then tell me. If it's not convenient, then just pretend I never asked." Ren Rujiu patted her hands and spoke sincerely.
Mo Jiuwei did not hide it, "Auntie, have you heard that there is an abandoned baby in the Xianlai Sect?"
“Abandoned baby?” Hu Xiu’s eyes widened. “I heard that it was thrown on the roadside last winter, and Elder Liu from the Xianlai Sect passed by and took pity on it, so he picked it up… Wait, that’s you?”
Ren Ruojiu was so angry that she wanted to twist a piece of flesh off her son's leg!
As soon as she heard her son speak, she knew something was wrong. This silly son really has no control over his words. How could he say such things? !
She quickly reached out to pinch him, hoping to block her son's mouth in time, but Hu Xiu had thick skin and seemed to feel no pain. No matter how she pinched him, he had no reaction!
It's over now, everything has been said, this is going to hurt Jiuwei's heart!
"It's okay. It's not a sad thing. I'm very happy in Xianlai Sect, and my senior sisters are also very nice to me." Mo Jiuwei saw the reactions of the two and just smiled. She didn't feel embarrassed or sad.
She did not tell Hu Xiu her full name and background at first, as she did not know whether this person was worth making friends with.
Today, I met the Hu couple. I felt that although they were shrewd as businessmen should be, they were also sincere to her and there was nothing wrong with their nature. That was why I was willing to tell them my identity.
After all, the Xianlai Sect might have opportunities to interact with the Hu family in the future, so it would not be justified to keep it secret.
"You have suffered so much. I don't know which parents are so cruel to abandon their own child..." Ren Ruojiu's heart softened. She reached out and touched Mo Jiuwei's head, looking at her with motherly pity.
Hu Xiu was also very angry. "That's right, this is too much! Sister Mo was born with a disability, it's not incurable, why are they... Ouch!"
Ren Rujiu gritted her teeth and pinched him again, and this time Hu Xiu felt the pain.
"Ignore him. My son is not very talkative and has a slow brain." Ren Ruojiu comforted Mo Jiuwei, "But how could the Xianlai Sect let you know about this?"
As the Xianlai Sect became more and more famous, many people had heard about Mo Jiuwei.
For example, the Xianlai Sect had a little sister who was a favorite of the group. She was once abandoned because of her disability. Later, she was adopted and cured by the Xianlai Sect. Everyone in the sect loved her very much.
What Ren Rujiu didn't understand was that since the Xianlai Sect loved her so much, the matter of the abandoned baby should have been kept secret from her. How could she know the inside story at such a young age?
How sad it must be for such a young child when he finds out!
"Such a big thing, even you have heard about it, how could you hide it from me?" Mo Jiuwei said with a smile, "I don't care about these things. I just know that my senior sisters love me and protect me, and I am living a good life."
"Good boy, thank you for your help..."
Ren Ruojiu's eyes turned red and he almost cried.
No wonder.
No wonder this child is so precocious, it turns out it is related to his special experience!
Her life was so rough, and she had suffered so much when she was just over one year old. Compared with other young and ignorant children, she was too pitiful.
