Hu Qingyang and Gu Yixuan squinted their eyes at the same time, looking at the back view that gradually became distant. After a long while, they finally stopped looking.
The two of them looked at each other, and the graceful Gu Yixuan smiled lightly towards Hu Qingyang, as if she was quite interested in him, and asked: ”Brother Hu, in your opinion, what kind of background does this brat have?”
”Are you guys dead? If you're not dead, then scram over to this young lord. Hurry up and track that brat's whereabouts. Also, find out who he is for this young lord. If you can't find out, then don't come back!” Hu Qingyang's face was gloomy, as he shouted at his men.
It was unknown whether he was truly angry, or whether he was intentionally putting on an act for Gu Yixuan to see.
In short, when Gu Yixuan saw his current appearance, the corner of his mouth curled up slightly in a very obscure manner.
Wu Hao wandered around in the middle of Royal City, and in the meantime, he entered a slightly larger medicine shop. He used the silver notes he had previously obtained from Hu Qingyang to purchase a few low rank medicine ingredients to assist his cultivation.
One hundred gold coins wasn't actually that much. Buying a Tier 1 spiritual medicine would at most be able to buy ten of them.
In the future, Mu Qian and Xiao Cui would take care of his daily living, there would be a lot of areas that she would need money for, so he had to leave a portion of the money for them.
All these years, he had been living in poverty with Mu Qian, Xiao Cui and the others. First Lady's family had been secretly oppressed by their family, but he did not care about whether they lived or died as a result, making his life very difficult for them.
He desperately needed money right now. As long as he had money, he would be able to sustain his cultivation. Since ancient times, experts were made up of countless resources.
However, everything needed to be done step by step. He couldn't be too hasty.
Returning back to his own courtyard, he greeted Mu Qian and Xiao Cui and handed over the remaining 50 gold coins to them.
Dryopterygium, Xiao Cui, we need money for our daily living, these are 50 gold coins, take them and take care of the courtyard. I am the dignified second young master of the Wu family, from now on, I will not be in such dire straits!
The two took the gold coins, and revealed a surprised expression towards him. Mu Qian tremblingly asked him: ”Two … Second Young Master, where did you get this money? ”
”Could Second Young Master have done something that doesn't go well?” Xiao Cui weighed the heavy gold coins as she suddenly had this thought.
In their opinion, it was impossible for him to earn so much gold in one afternoon under normal circumstances since he had an unknown origin.
Based on their previous lifestyle, these gold coins were more than enough to last them two years.
”Dryopterygium, don't worry, this money is coming from the right source, don't worry, just spend it, there will be more money in the future!” Wu Hao seemed to understand what he was worried about and immediately revealed a relieved expression, but did not explain further.
After giving them a few words, he found a large black pot in the courtyard and brought out some clear water. After boiling it with firewood, he threw the few pieces of Tier 1 spiritual medicines he had bought into the boiling water.
Pow!
Pow!
Pow!
In the City Lord's Mansion, inside the Wu manor, a few servants were ruthlessly thrown in a luxurious hall. In front of them, Jiao Ruhua stood there with a gloomy face, staring at them with sharp eyes.
”First Lady, it's these three people who were sneakily wandering around the back gate of our Wu family. They even tried to break in and got captured by us!”
Jiao Ruhua's middle-aged manager knelt to her and reported everything to her truthfully.
Jiao Ruhua's gaze swept past the three of them like lightning, and said coldly: ”Speak... Who exactly are you all, and why are you all sneaking around the outskirts of my Wu manor? ”
Hearing that, the three of them trembled, this was a woman who was famous for being sinister and ruthless in the Royal City, it would definitely not end well for them if they ended up in her hands.
”Mercy in First Lady, mercy in First Lady, we are servants of the Hu family …” The three of them were so scared that their faces turned pale. They hurriedly got up from the ground and kneeled down before her, kowtowing continuously.
”Hu family?”
”First Lady, I am here on the orders of my master and have no intention of trespassing into the Wu family …”
”What's going on? Tell me the truth, or else …” A cold light flashed across Jiao Ruhua's eyes, causing the two of them to shudder.
”First Lady, this is what happened …” To protect their lives, the three of them hurriedly told the truth about what happened in Xuexuan Medicine Company in the Rain at noon.
When Jiao Ruhua heard about this, his pupils immediately shrank, as a peculiar expression flashed across her face.
An hour later, three of the Hu servants were sent out of the Wu family.
And at this time, in the Wu manor's luxurious hall, Jiao Ruhua was sitting in front of the tea table with her legs crossed, drinking the tea in the cup. Her middle-aged manager was standing in front of her with her head lowered, her face indecisive, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.
