I have a supermarket system, shocking the whole court
Chapter 40 The Money-burning Master
Liang Muzhou was quite interested: "I haven't seen such an interesting young lady for a long time, let's wait."
As he said this, he walked towards the teahouse in a leisurely manner.
The servant was shocked. He thought that his master might have fallen in love with a mortal again. Of course, it was nothing to fall in love with a mortal. The master should find someone who was more considerate. But... could he not always find someone with a much lower status than him? The late princess was a lesson for him.
However, what could he, a small servant, say?
In the end, he could only hide his anxiety and follow his master silently.
On the other side, Ning Ning quickly ran to the dance troupe. There were some hot sesame cakes in her basket, which was just the right time to serve them to everyone.
They really didn't eat well in the prison these two days. When they saw the sesame cakes, they didn't care about chatting. Everyone grabbed a piece and started to eat it in front of the yamen.
Ning Ning quickly comforted him: "Don't worry, I called the inn before I left, and they have prepared the food. Let's eat something to fill our stomachs and then go back to the inn to have a good meal and rest before we go."
"Uuuuuuuuah...that's great."
"Boss, are we really safe now? The constables won't arrest us again, right?"
The troupe owner was not sure either, but facing the members of the dance troupe, he could only comfort them: "Don't worry, we are upright and honest, and the government will not wrongly accuse us."
As he was speaking, the lawyer hurried out of the yamen with a document in his hand.
"Here are your acquittal letters. Another release letter won't be ready until tomorrow. You can come back tomorrow to get it and then you can leave."
The class leader looked at the heavy document, and his excitement was beyond words. Yesterday, he thought that he might end his life here. At night, he looked back on his life carefully, regretting that he had not made a name for himself earlier and had lived a mediocre life.
Who would have thought that nothing would happen after waking up from a good night's sleep?
The troupe leader thanked the master profusely, and then everyone withdrew.
"Mrs. Chu, I want to thank you very much this time. If you and Mr. Chu hadn't helped us find a noble person to guarantee us, our future would be uncertain."
Ning Ning heard some clues from the class owner's words: "Then did the prefect say who this noble person is?"
"I was just about to ask Madam Chu, who is the distinguished person you invited? The prefect did not reveal it, but seeing how respectful he is, he must be someone of high status. Could it be Prefect Xiao?"
Ning Ning smiled awkwardly: "Since nothing happened, that's the best outcome. It doesn't really matter who it is."
Although the class owner claimed that he had not accomplished much in his life, he was not stupid. Looking at Ning Ning's expression, he knew that the name of the nobleman could not be revealed casually, and he tactfully did not ask any more questions.
But after turning around and looking around, the class owner couldn't help but wonder again: "By the way, I haven't seen Master Chu for such a long time, I wonder where he went?"
"Oh, he... is preparing food for everyone at the inn."
If the two of them had not had to conceal their identities, Ning Ning would not have bothered to cover up his lies, but at this moment she could only succumb to her "dream".
When she brought people to the inn, the food was indeed prepared, and the entire living room was empty.
She was just wondering when the waiter came over with a smile and said, "Madam Chu is back. Master Chu has booked this inn and prepared drinks for everyone. You are all tired from the journey. Please come this way."
Everyone in the dance troupe was very happy, but Ning Ning had a bad feeling.
"What about others?"
Ning Ning was naturally asking about Shang Wenqi.
The waiter pointed to the backyard and said, "Uh... Master Chu just returned to the backyard."
"Okay." Ning Ning asked the class owner and the others to eat first, and then she quickly returned to the backyard.
At this time, Shang Wenqi was washing his hands with water, and his slender white hands looked even more transparent in the water. It was really strange, how could a person who held a knife and killed people be so white?
His appearance is no worse than the peach blossom eyes, but the cold aura surrounding him makes people ignore his beauty.
But Ning Ning didn't care about these. She ran up to him and asked seriously, "Where did you get the money?"
Shang Wenqi tilted his head slightly, as if thinking about Ning Ning's question.
"Don't play dumb. Where is the 100 taels I left with you?" Ning Ning frowned.
She had been rewarded 100 taels of silver for saving Xiao Qingqing. She spent more than 100 taels on jewelry and had more than a dozen taels left. Later, before leaving, Xiao Zhizhou gave her another 10 taels. She used 102 taels to bribe people, and the two together left her with taels.
All this money was kept by Shang Wenqi, but now Shang Wenqi suddenly booked the inn, and Ning Ning suspected that he was going to use these 100 taels!
At that time, Shang Wenqi indeed curled his lips and said, "I used it to book an inn."
"!!!" Ning Ning felt her eyes go dark. Her money!
"It was you who wanted to save people. Since you are the one who has to take on so much responsibility, you have to do it from beginning to end." Shang Wenqi answered as a matter of course.
Ning Ning wanted to cry but had no tears. She asked with trembling lips: "How much...how much did it cost..."
"One hundred taels, no more, no less."
"so much!!!"
"100 people can stay in a private room at the inn for food and lodging, taels is already cheap."
Ning Ning felt resentful, but although what Shang Wenqi said was ruthless, there was nothing wrong with it. She did want to save the person, so there was naturally nothing wrong with spending her money.
Thinking that there was someone waiting for her in the teahouse, Ning Ning gave Shang Wenqi a middle finger: "I'll talk to you when I come back!"
"Where are you going?" Shang Wenqi frowned.
"Of course I'll find the sucker and get the money back!" Ning Ning said and ran away without looking back.
Shang Wenqi pursed his lips and took a while before he took a step to follow her out.
Liang Muzhou had already changed a pot of tea in the teahouse, and the servants were getting a little impatient: "Master, this woman won't take advantage of us and run away, will she?"
"Why rush? The monk may run away, but the temple cannot. The worst that can happen is that I will go to Kyoto to block her." Liang Muzhou was very calm.
"Don't worry, sir. You have done me a favor, and I won't be so ungrateful."
As they were talking, a clear female voice came from behind them.
Liang Muzhou turned around and saw Ning Ning appearing, exhausted. Maybe she had run too fast, her cheeks were flushed. The red added a bit of color to her already pretty face, which was quite pleasing to the eye.
Liang Muzhou's eyes lit up involuntarily.
Ning Ning bowed to Liang Muzhou and sat down naturally.
Seeing this, the servant stood up and kept watch for the two of them.
Ning Ning didn't wait for Liang Muzhou to speak, and started talking on her own.
"To be honest, sir, I got this recipe for taming beasts from the Western Regions, but there is no written record. It is only passed down orally. Please forgive me."
Liang Muzhou stared at Ning Ning with his eyes slightly sideways, making sure that she was not lying, and then he nodded slowly: "Okay, go ahead."
Ning Ning nodded: "No problem, Master, please remember this."
So Ning Ning began to talk about the animal taming plan in her mind.
