Chapter: 029 out of 513 – The honorable pestilence G.o.d is here (2)
Marquis Moyu had the day off on the next day. Instead of leaving to go somewhere else, he stayed in Feiwan Courtyard to read books. Ji Man had originally planned to invite Miss Shui over to discuss the store’s pertinent matters. However, she didn’t dare to do anything with this great Buddha sitting here.
Various varieties of wild roses were quickly brought over and planted in her courtyard until the place was full of these pink and white flowers.
Ji Man was recovering from her cold and couldn’t go outside. As she looked at those flowers through the window, she felt a burst of joy. Next time, she would be able to make wild rose cold cream. These raw materials were entirely free. Other than these free flowers, the other ingredients cost five silver coins per large box. Each large box sold for ten silver taels. She would be able to earn a crazy amount of money.
When Marquis Moyu looked up, he saw a side view of Nie Sangyu slightly smiling and somewhat lost in thought. When this girl was quiet and not causing trouble or clinging to him, she was actually quite beautiful.
Noticing his gaze, Ji Man turned her head and their eyes met. The eyes across from her suddenly showed a slight amount of interest.
Ji Man twitched her lips. This
promiscuous and fickle man was like a stud horse. Only foolish women from ancient times would be able to tolerate him.
“I heard that your older brother recently received the emperor’s appreciation and received three days of vacation. Do you want me to invite him over to see you?” Ning Yuxuan suddenly said.
Startled, she instinctively said, “No need.”
The interest in Ning Yuxuan’s eyes deepened. “En? Why not? Whenever you suffered grievances in the past, your favorite thing to do was to invite Sir Nie over to visit you.”
Was he suspicious about something? Gooseb.u.mps rose on Ji Man’s back. She felt that his smile looked far too sinister.
“This servant hasn’t suffered any grievance.” Ji Man quickly thought of an excuse, “This servant just doesn’t want my older brother to worry by seeing my current unfavorable situation.”
“Sir Nie should already know about your current situation. There’s nothing for you to worry about.” Ning Yuxuan closed his book and said with a light smile, “I happen to be free this afternoon. I’ll send a messenger to invite him here now. He can also drink wine with me while he’s here.”
Oh no.
Ji Man’s face stiffened. She turned around to continue looking at the outside scenery. She had no idea how Nie Sangyu used to interact with Nie Qingyun. Ning Yuxuan was already suspecting her. If Nie Qingyun also felt that there was something wrong with her, would they
they think she was a demon? Were they going to tie her up and burn her to death?
While Ji Man thought of a way to respond to this problem, she turned her head to look at Muxu through the window. That girl had been standing outside the door this entire time in order to give them privacy.
She shouted, “Muxu, come inside and help me outside to look at the wild roses.”
“No, you’re not allowed to go outside.” Marquis Moyu opened his mouth to stop her, “You’re still sick. You can’t be exposed to the wind. If you want to look at the flowers, you can see them from here.”
