Chapter 359 Cousins Settle Accounts Clearly
Su Yuanzhi glanced at the teahouse across the street...
Hmm! It looks pretty good.
He walked straight to a seat by the window where he could see the sugar figurine stall and sat down.
As for Ningbao, he wasn't worried at all that she would get lost.
Only the Mu family and his aunt's family were constantly worried that someone would steal their little girl away.
Su Yuanzhi felt that if someone really wanted to steal Ning Bao, he would definitely burn three sticks of incense for that person first.
…………
In the blink of an eye, Ningbao had already run three streets.
Ningbao ran out earnestly with the small compass in hand, while her third senior brother had lost his purse a while ago.
That thief was so skilled that, to be honest, she didn't even notice.
After turning a corner, you enter a secluded alley. Inside, three men are gathered together.
"Lai Zi, how did it go? Did you succeed?"
Lai Ziyang waved the purse in his hand, his eyes narrowing with delight.
"Got it! This fish is really fat today."
I thought I'd come away empty-handed, but I never expected to run into a silly young man who carried so many silver notes with him.
"You're lucky today, kid. You've got such good luck."
This stack of taels is worth at least ten thousand taels. Let's go to the brothel, Little Peach Blossom's night owl, to pay the bill today.
Lai Zi, who was counting silver notes, looked at his two good brothers with some difficulty.
"No! Houzi, Xiao Taohong is the top courtesan at Wan Hua Lou, her price is too high. How about we find someone else?"
The monkey shook its head.
"With Xiao Tao Hong in this brothel, all the other women have to step aside. Since we don't have to spend our own money, we should definitely go for the best."
Lai Zi was in a bit of a dilemma.
"Brother Hou, I promised to help Mudan redeem herself, and this amount of silver is just enough to do so."
How about next time? I'll definitely invite you next time.
How about I treat you to drinks this time?
The monkey shook its head.
"Just drinking? No girls? No fun."
Lai Zi had a sudden inspiration.
"That's easy. We'll go to Widow Cao's place. I don't know if the food and wine there are good or not, but I do know that Widow Cao welcomes all customers..."
"Widow Cao?" The monkey pondered for a moment.
"Alright, then it'll be Widow Cao. Although Widow Cao is a bit old, she's still got a good kick. Let's go, let's go now..."
"Big brother, where are you going?"
As soon as the monkeys turned around, they saw a beautifully sculpted little girl blocking their way.
Oh my, this is business delivered right to my door.
The monkey took a step forward and made what it thought was a very handsome smile.
"Little sister, have you gotten separated from your family?"
How about I take you home?
Ning Bao shook her head.
"No need, thank you big brother, I can go home by myself."
"By the way, big brother, you're in for some bloodshed lately."
The monkey's expression changed immediately upon hearing this.
"Bloodshed? You little brat, you're quite the bluffer. I've been in the martial world for so long, and bloodshed is the last thing I'm afraid of."
"Once Monkey King sells you for a good price, you'll know how powerful he is."
Seeing that the other party showed no sign of backing down, Ning Bao nodded helplessly.
"All right."
Ning Bao didn't want to waste words with a man who was about to die. She turned to Lai Zi, took out a sugar figurine, and waved it in front of him.
"Brother, look what this is!"
Lai Zi was instantly drawn to the sugar figurine in Ning Bao's hand. Taking advantage of his distraction, Ning Bao quickly snatched the silver notes and purse from Lai Zi's hand.
Ningbao was very happy to see the thickness of the silver notes.
"Hmm, not bad, my third senior brother is indeed wealthy."
Ning Bao put the silver notes into the storage talisman right in front of everyone, then said to Lai Zi, who had just realized what was happening.
"Big brother, you haven't killed anyone, so there's still hope."
If you stop now, repent and do more good deeds, you'll be fine after a few years of bad luck. As long as you start anew, you can live a peaceful old age.
Otherwise, there might be bloodshed.
After Ningbao finished speaking, she waved her little hand and disappeared on the spot...
Actually, Ning Bao just wanted to maintain an air of mystery, so she simply used an invisibility talisman.
But all of this was a terrifying event in the eyes of the monkey and the lazybones...
"A ghost! There's a ghost!"
"Little fairy!"
People with different natures will have different perspectives on problems.
Ningbao's disappearances were seen as ghosts by the monkey.
In Lai Zi's eyes, however, they were gods, which may have foreshadowed their fate...
Ning Bao left the alley and headed straight for the teahouse where Su Yuanzhi was.
Su Yuanzhi was drinking tea and listening to music in the teahouse…
"Smack!"
Seeing the little boy slamming his fist on the table, Su Yuanzhi quickly poured Ningbao a glass of water.
"Junior Sister, did you get the silver back?"
Ning Bao glared at Su Yuanzhi with dissatisfaction.
"Third senior brother, shouldn't you be concerned about whether your junior sister is tired or hungry first? Instead, you're concerned about money. You're not acting like a responsible senior brother at all."
"Tch!" Su Yuanzhi said smugly.
"I refuse to believe that there's any money that can't be recovered if my junior sister takes action."
"Here you go, the silver notes!" Ning Bao was very satisfied with Su Yuanzhi's answer, and she placed the silver notes directly on the table.
Just as Su Yuanzhi thought Ning Bao had forgotten about "dividing the spoils," a small hand pulled out two silver notes and handed them to Su Yuanzhi.
"There are twenty bills in total, each worth one hundred taels. This is your ten percent and this is my ninety percent."
Under Su Yuanzhi's watchful eye, Ning Bao solemnly put the silver notes into her small handbag.
Then Ning Bao kindly handed Su Yuanzhi his purse.
"I found the purse for my third senior brother. There are still some loose silver coins inside, so I won't share them. But don't forget to treat me to something delicious, third senior brother."
Su Yuanzhi put away his purse and glanced at the smug little girl. Junior Sister is still Junior Sister, she never suffers a loss.
but…………
"We can buy some fun things, but we can skip the good food. My uncle just sent someone to deliver a message saying that the Prefect's wife is hosting a banquet for guests today, and there's a big meal at the Prefect's mansion that we can come and freeload."
"Okay, okay, let's go!" Ning Bao picked up the water glass on the table, drank it all in one gulp, and then stood up and walked out.
Su Yuanzhi paid for the tea and quickly followed.
The prefect's residence wasn't far from here, and the two siblings walked there without even taking a carriage.
Of course, Ningbao wouldn't just walk the whole way; she would definitely browse the shops when she came across them, since her third senior brother would pay for everything.
They walked and strolled along, and when Ningbao got tired, they arrived at the Prefect's Mansion.
As soon as Ning Bao arrived at the entrance of the prefect's mansion, she saw a man and a woman getting off a carriage.
Ning Bao was stunned when he saw the faces of the man and woman; they had killed more than one person.
