Chapter 236 First Hearing of Japan



“Okay!” Su Jiaoniang replied.

I gained four pounds on the eleventh day of the lunar month while I was away from home.

When Chu Jiu returned, he said to Su Jiaoniang, "Doctor Liu said that there are indeed poppies in there, and the young master said that Cai Yi was taken out of the county magistrate's prison and his whereabouts are unknown."

The Cai family business has run into some trouble. The old lady of the Cai family has taken her family and left Lucheng; their whereabouts are currently unknown. The young master said they might be coming. The provincial governor is asking you to be careful.

After finishing his sentence in one breath, Chu Jiu gulped down a bowl of water.

Traveling is an extremely tiring thing.

After drinking the tea, I saw some very pretty pastry figurines on the table and couldn't resist putting one in my mouth, then another.

Feeling no longer hungry, I went back to my room and lay down on the bed to sleep without even washing up.

Su Jiaoniang looked at Eleven: "Cai Yi ran away!"

"Madam, would you like to send some more people over? Cai Yi is locked up in prison, yet he managed to escape. Does the county magistrate of Lucheng really not know, or are they pretending not to know?" Eleven's words were filled with suspicion towards Magistrate Hu.

Su Jiaoniang had a plan in mind: "No need to send anyone over, your master will be here soon."

That person has been gone for almost two months.

Without realizing it.

Time really flies.

After saying that, Su Jiaoniang glanced at Eleven's figure and said, "You need to hurry up and lose weight, in case someone sees you."

In just five or six days, her belly has almost grown out.

They'll probably be thrown into a snake pit to lose weight.

The pastries that were picked up on the eleventh day were slowly put back into the plate.

Looking down at his own figure, he was still strong and powerful, but he did seem a bit rounder.

After thinking for a moment, he went out into the yard and started chopping firewood.

One by one, each strand was of uniform length and thickness.

This kind of firewood would probably fetch a higher price than regular firewood if sold elsewhere.

Indeed, capable people have advantages over ordinary people in everything they do.

Su Jiaoniang got up, changed her clothes, and walked towards the Immortal Abode.

She suspected that the manager behind Xianrenju was still Cai Yi.

After fleeing Lucheng, he immediately opened an even more popular shop. Poppies are addictive; while they deplete a person's vital energy, they also accumulate wealth.

To live in this world, you need money no matter what you do.

Rebellion is also an option!

...

The person behind Cai Yi is Song Qian, who is currently half-dead at Doctor Liu's house.

Cai Yi was rescued.

Su Jiaoniang was slightly disappointed; Song Qian had indeed been abandoned.

My fingers tap on the table, waiting for the night to fall.

As night fell, Su Jiaoniang changed into black night clothes and headed towards the Immortal's Abode. She had to take a risk to find out if the person behind the immortal was Cai Yi.

When Shiyi saw Su Jiaoniang go out, he hesitated for a moment, then followed her out.

Dark clouds obscured the moon.

The night was pitch black.

Walking on the street, it was pitch black.

Stray cats and dogs are looking for a place to sleep.

Su Jiaoniang paused for a moment, grabbed a cat and placed it in front of her. She then nimbly slipped into the kitchen of Xianrenju, where there was no one.

The empty kitchen was spotless; even the knives and cutting boards were thoroughly washed.

From a hygiene perspective, Xianrenju meets the standards.

But... as long as there are poppies inside, hygiene doesn't matter that much at that moment.

After all, a little dirt won't make you sick, but if you get involved with opium poppies, you'll develop health problems.

Su Jiaoniang stood in the kitchen, searched around but couldn't find poppies. Just as she was about to leave, she met a pair of bright green eyes.

Woof...

With a thud.

The sound of dogs barking echoed here.

Su Jiaoniang quickly left, and even took a stray cat out of her clothes.

I hid myself and heard someone walking towards the kitchen.

She breathed a sigh of relief as she watched the stray cat being thrown out.

The cat slowly approached, its emerald eyes staring at her as if accusing her. Su Jiaoniang reached out and touched the cat's ears, stroked its neck a few times, and then led the cat home.

Boil some hot water and wash the orange cat thoroughly.

Then I trimmed the cat's paws and prepared cat food.

Seeing that the kitten was a male, and thinking that spring was approaching...

She's a reasonable person. The cat helped her today, so she naturally wouldn't let the kitten continue to wander. But it's springtime!

Su Jiaoniang checked the stray cat's physical condition.

The castration surgery is scheduled for a few days.

The next morning, on the 9th and 11th, they began daily training exercises, demonstrating self-discipline and perseverance.

Otherwise, they would have been eliminated in one mission after another long ago.

Su Jiaoniang then exercised her muscles and bones before heading towards the kitchen.

After preparing breakfast, she poured out a portion of the lighter fare to feed the stray cats separately, then looked at Chu Jiu and Shi Yi: "This is one of the family's little ones; please take care of them in the future."

"..." Who is related to cats?

As Chu Jiu stared at the orange cat, a strange feeling arose in her heart as she thought of the dog in Sweetwater Village.

Cats are the new favorites; dogs are outdated and no longer pampered.

He nudged Eleven with his elbow: "This cat looks a bit fat!"

"I wonder if the meat will taste good!" Eleven swallowed hard.

...Su Jiaoniang almost kicked Eleven out. Cats are so cute, can they be eaten?

Although she prefers dogs, she won't dislike cats if she feels a connection with them.

"You heartless person, get out, get out." Seeing Eleven eating a steamed bun without any reaction made me feel uncomfortable.

Shiyi stared at the breakfast laid out on the table.

Take another look at the orange cat lying quietly in its bowl, eating its food.
