Chapter 408 Rumors

Wu Mian took a look at the content written by Mu Jiu. It was filled with information about Li Juren's family. Judging from these sheets of paper, this family is really innocent. No matter how you look at it, it is no problem. Wu Mian is relieved that Shao Yujie can marry this person.

At this time, the butler who followed Wu Mian and Gui Bugui came over. Taking advantage of the time when they were talking, he walked to the old guy and said, "Butler Jiao has also arrived in Nanjing City. He has now gone to Shao's house to deliver the goods. He said that he would finish the matter you explained, and I would like to pay my respects to you..."

After being reminded by the housekeeper, the old man remembered it. After laughing, he patted his forehead gently and said to Wu Mian: "Old man, I almost forgot Dalang. I have already received a batch of spices from Nanyang and said that it is OK. I asked Dalang to bring some to the women of the Shao family. When you said you were going to change your way back to Nanjing, I felt something was wrong. It turned out that I forgot Dalang."

At that time, Gao Rubai and Jiao Dalang were two great housekeepers of the Sishui family. Later, Gao Rubai followed Liu Xi and Sun Xiaochuan to overseas. The Jiao Dalang, who was somewhat similar to Master Xu Fu, continued to serve Wu Mian. But he usually stayed on the God of Wealth Island and dealt with the Sishui family's business on the sea. After the shops on land ended, the entire Sishui family's transactions were pressed on Jiao Dalang's shoulders.

At this time, several monks who had explained the matter saw the butler of the Sishui number arrived. They were very tactful and found excuses to leave here. Don’t wait until Jiao Dalang came and said something secret, and then they were heard by them. If something unexpected happened because of this incident in the future, they would not be able to explain it clearly.

After a while, Jiao Dalang came to Wu Mian and Gui Bugui. After giving a smile, Jiao Dalang said, "Boss, I came here this time. I didn't expect Miss Sifang to pass away. If I had known it, Persian Xixiang would not give it to..."

"It's not your fault. We only heard about it when we entered the city, and we caught it off guard." Gui Bugui nodded and continued, "You are here just in time to inquire about Li Hexian, the eldest son of Li Ju, the Li family in the east of the city. Mu Jiu is a cultivator, and he can't compare to you inquire about the news. If you confirm it correctly, Mr. Li will be the new son-in-law of the Shao family."

"Just teach me this. I'm still a little confident in checking such things." Jiao Dalang took out a thick stack of books and then said to Gui Bugui: "This is the account book sent by Liu Xi and Sun Xiaochuan. It is the account of the trade with the Thirteen Banks over the years. I heard that they had fought with the East India Company several times, and now the porcelain, tea and silk markets are already open."

"The Sishui number is a deal between his brothers. I am just sending their money. Why are these brothers so polite?" Gui Bugui didn't look at the account book and continued to say to Jiao Dalang: "Rubai is by their side, I'm relieved. Dalang, please write a letter to tell them that if you are bullied in foreign countries, you should hold back this tone. When we have enough time, go and vent our anger."

"Old man, you mean we are going abroad, right?" After hearing Gui Bugui's words, Little Rensan jumped happily. It was going abroad more than 60 years ago, and it almost turned against Bai Wuqiu. Now when he heard the old guy's words, the little guy smiled so hard that his mouth couldn't close.

"Then you have to wait until the land is nothing big." Gui Bugui smiled and looked at Wu Mian and Bai Wuqiu again, then continued: "The demon mountain has been calm all these years. Let the fool find a successor to the demon king. We will leave when it comes out of free."

"Old guy, I didn't say I wanted to give up the position of the Demon King." After hearing Gui Bugui's words, Bai Wuqiu kept shaking his head. After pausing for a moment, he continued to say: "The Demon Mountain cannot be separated from me. I have only been safer in the past few years. I finally recovered from this tone. When I walked in chaos, who can you and the third brother Ren take care of it?"

I originally thought that Guigui was tired of staying in the Demon Mountain, and when I mentioned going abroad, the silly boy would not have any objections. Now it seems that he is determined to do the Demon King to the end and will not give up the throne easily.

Seeing that farce sixty years ago was about to reappear, Jiao Dalang suddenly said: "A few bosses, let me say something. Just now, you asked me to check Li Juren's house in the east of the city... I just remembered something. Three years ago, when I came to Nanjing once to deliver foreign desserts to the Shao family's mistresses. I heard that the Li family was haunted for a while, and someone had seen ghosts in the mansion in the middle of the night. He also scared Li Juren, a concubine, and the noise was quite big at that time..."

"Hey? There's this thing..." Gui Bugui looked at Wu Mian with some surprise, and then the old guy personally took the content written by Mu Jiu himself. The above wrote all the things that Li Ju's family had big and small, but it did not describe the haunted part. However, that incident was still rumored after all, and Mu Jiu must have seen through the flaws. It was just a way for the women in the mansion to be jealous. If you can't really say it, it's not certain.

"Although it's not a big deal, it's better to be cautious about Miss Shao's family." Jiao Dalang said this, nodded at Wu Mian, and then continued: "And the Shao family is now the blood of Prince He Shuoyi. What kind of descendants of the rank-in officials can't be found. Why is a small juren cheaper? Their ancestors were the ministers of military affairs, but now they are just a small juren. In fact, since the Yongzheng Dynasty, the son-in-law selected by Miss Yujie is the most unsatisfactory one."

"Don't worry about this Dalang. The princesses of the Shao family and the son-in-law are tired of being a wealthy family." Gui Bugui laughed and continued, "You are not a worm in the belly of the Shao family's woman. How do you know that Master Li is the most unsatisfactory one? Go and check what happened to the haunted back then? If you really did something unethical and attracted the evil ghost to seek his life, then Yujie would not be able to enter this fire pit..."

Jiao Dalang nodded, and he saw that Wu Mian had some doubts. He immediately left Liu Xi and Sun Xiaochuan's account books here, and then Jiao Dalang went straight to Li Juren's mansion to find out what happened here that year, whether the ghost he had seen had been reincarnated or was hiding somewhere in Li Juren's house.

After Jiao Dalang left, Gui Bugui was worried that the two monsters would turn against each other again. He immediately ordered the housekeeper to start dinner and call Bai Rulong and the monks to accompany him during the meal. After all, when they were not in Nanjing, the Shao family still had to rely on these people. Unfortunately, it was their turn to guard the Shao family and they didn't have time to come back for a drink...

After three rounds of drinking, a smoke came out of Gui Bugui's body, who was urging him to drink. After seeing the smoke, Wu Mian and Gui Bugui's face showed a surprised expression. The two stood up at the same time, in front of the two monsters and the monks, they used the escape technique to disappear without a trace in front of them.

Just when everyone was surprised that something had happened, Gui Bugui, who had just disappeared, appeared in front of them again out of thin air. But unlike when he disappeared, the old guy was carrying a man covered in blood on his shoulder. This man was Jiao Dalang, who had gone to investigate whether Li Juren was haunted not long ago...

A broken wound appeared in Jiao Dalang's back heart. If it weren't for his immortal body, the wound would have taken his life.

"Fortunately, I have Dalang's natal talisman paper on me, otherwise, he would be immortal and die at this time..." After looking at Jiao Dalangde's wound, Gui Bugui said to the stunned monks around him: "It seems that there is indeed a problem in Li Juren's family. Even Dalang is injured."
