Chapter 7 Her "Ghost" Friend



"Miss...do you have any good business opportunities?"

The head of the gang was surprised and suspicious.

Jiang Jiaojiao tossed the heavy silver bag onto the man and walked straight into the next room, saying, "Come in and let's talk."

Instead of going to open, crowded places, Jiang Jiaojiao, feeling emboldened, went into a dark little house.

The head of the gang began to value Jiang Jiaojiao even more.

A-Yuan was so frightened that she clutched Jiang Jiaojiao's sleeve tightly, her voice trembling, "Miss... Miss..."

"fine."

Having been a ghost for over ten years, how could she be afraid of the dark? In this world, people are far more terrifying than ghosts.

The head of the gang followed in with admiration. The "servants" outside the door looked at each other in surprise. It was the first time someone had known their head of the gang's identity and remained calm.

This young lady is ruthless!

Half an hour later.

Jiang Jiaojiao led the radiant A Yuan out and drifted away.

Then……

A security escort agency called "Qianjin Escort Agency" was quietly established in the west of the city.

Jiang Jiaojiao's eyes and brows were full of smiles.

She remembered that when this leader first became a ghost, he howled so pitifully that he kept rambling on about how his dream was to be a bodyguard, but he was forced to become a bandit because of life's hardships. He said that he was killed because he didn't want to lead his brothers to do those murderous and thieving things. The leader of the neighboring mountain was after him.

After he howled so much, the ghosts would drift away when they saw him.

Jiang Jiaojiao was bored and stopped to listen a few times. Moved by his actions, he stayed by Jiang Jiaojiao's side and protected her for a full year before being reincarnated.

This time... let's repay the protection he received that year and fulfill his dream of becoming a bodyguard.

Seeing the leader, she couldn't help but think of her ghost sisters.

I wonder how those girls are doing?

wrong--

Jiang Jiaojiao's eyes lit up. They became ghosts after her, which meant... they were still alive?

Thinking of this, Jiang Jiaojiao's feet seemed to fly, wishing she could immediately rush to the mansions of those ghostly best friends. But after taking only a few steps, Jiang Jiaojiao realized what was going on.

Those women are now either highly sought-after noble ladies in the capital or unmarried.

If she goes there rashly... she probably won't even be able to get in the door.

Jiang Jiaojiao and the head of the gang had just left.

Dao Hong followed the clues to the dilapidated temple, but it was already empty and without a trace. This made Dao Hong even more certain that the person who stole the medical book was no ordinary person.

Inside the clinic.

Jiang Liu grabbed the shopkeeper by the collar, "What do you mean the medical books and the person are gone?!"

The shopkeeper was so frightened that he kept begging for mercy.

"I told you to steal the book! And you've lost both the book and yourself!"

Following Jiang Xue's directions, Jiang Liu soon encountered the man. The man wanted to exchange a medical book for thirty taels of silver, but the clinic claimed that the book was a forgery made after being stolen from the clinic's ancestral book.

He had originally planned to sell the book through the clinic and get a free copy.

Unexpectedly, someone intercepted them halfway, stealing both the person and the book.

"Tell me—how should we compensate my losses!"

Jiang Liu remembered Jiang Xue's instructions, and his eyes lit up. "Since you lost my book, consider this ancestral book as compensation!"

"Yes, yes, yes—that's right, that's right."

The shopkeeper had already witnessed the young master's arrogance and dared not refute him.

Jiang Liu swaggered away with his ancestral certificate.

The shopkeeper wiped the sweat from his brow and looked at the head of the clinic, "Are you sure that medical book is exactly the same as the medical records in our ancestral home?"

The head of the clinic wiped his sweat and said, "The medical cases in that book are almost identical to those in our ancestral home, but the prescriptions and medications are completely different. It's utter nonsense! It's obviously made up by someone who doesn't know anything about medicine!"

The shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

"Fortunately, we have already made dozens of copies of this ancestral book as teaching materials, otherwise we would have suffered a great loss today!"

Jiang Liu returned to the Marquis's residence.

He immediately sent the medical book over, saying, "I went through a lot of trouble, even turning upside down the clinic, to find this for you!"

Jiang Xue took the medical book and quickly flipped through it.

It contains numerous medical records, including detailed prescriptions.

According to the storybook, all the medical cases in this medical book will come true. When the time comes, she only needs to take the medicine according to the prescriptions in the medical book, and she will be cured! She will then be known as a medical sage!

Jiang Xue carefully put the medical book away.

Jiang Liu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

That's considered getting away with it.

He took a sip of the tea from Shuer's cupboard, almost spitting it out, and complained, "When will the manor's expenses be restored? Didn't that fatso already come out of the little Buddhist hall?!"

"It's just some tea, what's the big deal?"

Jiang Xue put down her teacup. They weren't the only ones feeling uncomfortable. "I heard that your eldest and second brothers are back. Aren't you going to see them?"

Why should I look at them?

Jiang Liu was very disdainful. One was crude and ignorant, and the other was a pedantic scholar. Humph, once he inherited the Marquis's mansion, he would kick them both out.

"Alright, Shu'er... Pack two plates of the pastries we bought today, let's go see our elder brother."

Jiang Xue took Shu'er to the front yard and heard shouts and cheers from afar.

Jiang Jingtian held the enormous bronze cauldron in the courtyard tightly with both hands, his legs slightly apart, and he firmly assumed a horse stance.

"The time has come—"

With a shout from the servant, Jiang Jingtian took a slight step back, and with a loud "boom," the massive cauldron, weighing two hundred pounds, was slammed back onto the ground. The surrounding servants, seeing this, immediately began to praise him enthusiastically!

"The eldest young master is truly blessed with superhuman strength! He was able to hold a horse stance with such a heavy cauldron for half an hour!"

"Yes, yes! The eldest son of our Marquis's mansion truly lives up to his reputation! If he were to go to the battlefield in the future, he would surely be unstoppable and invincible!"

Hearing the servants' flattering words, Jiang Jingtian's face revealed a smug smile, finally regaining his confidence.

snort!

Yesterday, he must have been in a hurry, thirsty, and tired, which is why that idiot Jiang Jiaojiao dragged him down. Once he gets some practice, he'll immediately drag her to his brothers' place to sever their sibling relationship and save face.

With such a notorious sister, he really had no face to be the senior brother of the martial arts school.

"Big brother—"

Jiang Xue walked over with a smile. These servants were specially selected and sent by her to keep her eldest brother from being physically strong but mentally weak.

Jiang Jingtian was delighted to see Jiang Xue. "Second sister, what brings you here?"

"My sister had someone buy some pastries today. They look exquisite and taste delicious. When she heard that my brother was coming back, she brought them over for him to try."

Jiang Jingtian looked at him with doting eyes and said with a smile, "Big brother is a rough man, it would be a waste for him to eat it, you can keep it for yourself."

Looking at Jiang Xue's gentle and obedient appearance, Jiang Jingtian thought of Jiang Jiaojiao. They were both younger sisters, but look at his second sister... This is how a younger sister should act!

Unlike Jiang Jiaojiao, who only knows how to embarrass him and make him angry!
