The man who received the money weighed the storage bag in his hand and clicked his tongue, saying, "Zhao Pianran is really lucky. First, a kind-hearted shopkeeper took pity on her and helped her pay back a lot of spirit stones. Now she has met a rich but foolish person. I am a little envious of her."
"Boss, don't mention Zhao Pianran again. Every time she sees us, all she does is cry. She's ruined the reputation of our Zhu family."
Another person chimed in, "That's right, that's right. It was clearly her own initiative to take out the loan. Mr. Wang was kind enough not to charge her interest, but every time it's time to pay back the money, she cries her heart out. She always goes to crowded places to cry, making us look like we're trying to abduct a woman."
"Who says otherwise? Let's make a bet, she'll have to go to Mr. Wang to borrow money later, you believe it or not."
"Only a fool would bet with you. Do you really think she's found a way to buy the Rejuvenation Pill?"
"Who knows? The Rejuvenation Pill is a third-tier pill, extremely rare and hard to come by. I've never even seen one. If she really has the ability to buy the Rejuvenation Pill and revive her half-dead mother and sister, I will truly admire her."
"It's a pity about the Zhao family's house and shop. They were really nice, but they were redeemed again. Sigh, it's delayed Mr. Wang from making money. Actually, Zhao Pianran is really pretty. If she hadn't paid back the money this time, she would have become a maid in the Zhu family. It wouldn't have been so bad."
...
The group walked further and further away, and stopped talking about the debtor who was giving them a headache.
They were just a few errand runners at the Zhu family's money shop. As long as they did their jobs well, that was enough. They didn't have many other pursuits. After all, their cultivation aptitude was limited, and they were destined to never reach the Foundation Establishment stage. They might as well just live a carefree life.
On the other side, Zhao Pianran, holding the storage bag she had just received, ran to the second-floor private room and kowtowed with gratitude. The female cultivator inside sighed, opened the door, helped the poor girl up, and comforted her, "There's no need for that. I'm just doing what I can. Anyway, a few hundred spirit stones are nothing to me, so you don't need to worry too much."
Ye Sisi smiled at Su Jiuli with narrowed eyes: "Senior Brother, is this little sister talking to me?"
Su Jiuli's lips curled up slightly: "She's not a little sister, she's older than you."
Ye Sisi nodded: "Senior Brother's observation is very insightful. Junior Sister still has a lot to learn."
The female cultivator in light blue robes comforted Zhao Anran and then left with her companion. Judging from their similar clothes, the two were disciples of a sect.
"Senior Brother, if we had gone around doing charity like this back then, wouldn't you have felt bad?"
Su Jiuli shook her head: "We people of the Heavenly Spirit Sect are not that stupid."
Ye Sisi thought about it and agreed. In any case, she would not help people recklessly without fully understanding the situation, nor would she kill or harm people indiscriminately.
Well, it's not that what those two people did was wrong. Maybe they just don't need the money and don't care about throwing it away, or maybe they just felt sorry for Zhao Pianran and wanted to lend a hand. People are just different.
Zhao Pianran wiped away her tears as she went downstairs, repeatedly bowing and thanking the shopkeeper before running out of the teahouse with her storage bag in her hands.
Ye Sisi tilted her head and said, "Senior Brother, I want to follow them and take a look."
Su Jiuli nodded, placed a high-grade spirit stone on the table, and the two left silently.
The two concealed themselves and followed Zhao Pianran slowly. Ye Sisi laughed and said, "Senior Brother, so you are the one who is good fortune! Do you know how many low-grade spirit stones one high-grade spirit stone is equal to?"
Su Jiuli smiled and took out a spatial ring, shaking it: "I have money."
Ye Sisi fell silent upon seeing it. This spatial ring was the one she had given to Su Jiuli yesterday. The feeling was truly...
Why is Senior Brother getting more and more mischievous as he gets older? "Senior Brother, you've changed."
Su Jiuli put the spatial ring back on her finger and looked at it carefully: "I used to take care of you all, now it's your turn to take care of me, it's not too much for me to be proud, is it?"
Ye Sisi was speechless. There was nothing wrong with that. Just yesterday, she said that her senior brother should be a dashing young man at his age.
"Senior Brother, how about this: I'll be the Senior Sister from now on, and I promise to arrange everything perfectly. You can just be a playboy without worry. Isn't this a brilliant idea?"
Su Jiuli couldn't help but slap her on the head: "You have no manners, do you want me to practice swordsmanship with you?"
Ye Sisi pursed her lips and didn't say anything, but she quietly raised her middle finger, which was full of provocation.
Su Jiuli smiled slightly. Actually, she was quite tired. She didn't want her divinity to overpower her humanity, so she could only let her see more and have more emotional ups and downs. She missed her junior brother so much. If he were here, the two of them would start fighting without anyone else stirring things up. No amount of divinity would be of any use to them.
"You've been watching for so long, do you have any insights?"
Ye Sisi nodded: "Yes, although Zhao Pianran cried pitifully and beautifully, who am I? Am I someone who can be manipulated by a white lotus? So I feel a bit disgusted and annoyed by people who like to play tricks, especially when she said that I definitely don't lack money. Pfft, my money doesn't grow on trees. Why should I give it to her just because she begs me? Even if I want to do a good deed, there are so many people who are worse off than her. Why should I help her? She even tried to morally blackmail me. Humph, dream on."
"Then there's that Sudhana, oh no, I should say Sudhana's wife. If she wants to be a living bodhisattva, fine, but she has to keep making veiled accusations. If it weren't for the vast difference in our spiritual levels, as a senior, I wouldn't bother arguing with her. I'd even wish I could help her grow a brain."
"As for the others, they were all quite nice. No one took advantage of their misfortune. The shopkeeper is a good person, but good people are rewarded, aren't they? As for those debt collectors, they were perfectly fine. It's their job. Besides looking a bit fierce, they behaved very well. But looks are innate. People who do debt collection have to be a bit fierce."
Su Jiuli nodded in satisfaction. This was good; all the work hadn't been in vain.
Following Zhao Pianran to a very grand mansion, Ye Sisi looked at the two stone lions at the entrance and really wanted to spin the round ball in their mouths. She had thought about it when she watched TV, but she never had the chance.
Thinking this way, she did just that. It was a rare opportunity. Her senior brother had said that this trip was for sightseeing, so it wasn't unreasonable for her to have some fun. Yes, not at all.
Su Jiuli didn't stop her. She looked up at the plaque of the Zhao residence, which was shrouded in wisps of black energy. In fact, she didn't need to look any further to guess what had happened.
