Chapter: 082 out of 513 – Vigilance must be maintained to avoid being harmed (1)

Although her recent days had been going well, Ji Man still felt a faint uneasiness . She didn’t know what would happen later on, but there was always a sense of danger coiling around her .

When Ji Man returned to her senses and looked up after dazedly staying in her room for a while, she noticed that Muxu was gone . She stretched her waist and walked outside to look for her .

There wasn’t anyone in the courtyard either . She had sent the other servant girls to Shuiji store to see if its business was good and to also buy five boxes of cold cream . Muxu normally stood outside of Nie Sangyu’s room, but for an inexplicable reason, Ji Man didn’t see her today .

Ji Man walked to the side room and notice that Muxu’s door wasn’t closed . She suddenly had a playful impulse and wanted to startle her . And so, she quietly tiptoed into her room .

Muxu’s back was facing the door, and she was stuffing something inside her wardrobe .

Ji Man suddenly jumped over to her and patted her shoulder, “Muxu . ”

“Ah!” Muxu’s entire body sprung up as if she had suffered a great fright . Her eyes were extremely wide . She stopped breathing and fainted straight away .

Ji Man was also startled . She inwardly scolded herself; she shouldn’t play around like this . There

really were incidents when people died from fright . She hurriedly carried Muxu to the bed, went outside, found a servant that was pa.s.sing by, and told him to send Doctor Li over .

After Ji Man returned to the room, she saw that the wardrobe’s door was still open, so she went over there to close it . But, when she went over, she saw a cloth bag that was bulging with small objects . It seemed as if it was stuffed full of silver ingots .

Where did Muxu get a bagful of money? Last time, she had given her a banknote worth fifty silver taels . Even if it was changed into silver ingots, there shouldn’t be this many, ah .

Ji Man furrowed her brows . She cast a glance at unconscious person on the bed and opened the bag .

There were twenty silver ingots that were worth two hundred silver taels in total . There was also a banknote underneath them . Ji Man looked at it . It had a large value of one hundred sixty silver taels . On the top, it was marked with Feng Hui Union’s stamp . It was exactly the same mark as the ones on the banknotes that Miss Shui brought over every month .

Ji Man looked at it for a while, then she carefully

carefully wrapped up the money, put the bag back in its original position, and closed the wardrobe .

Doctor Li arrived quickly . His face looked very thin, but there wasn’t much worry showing . It was only when he saw that Muxu had fainted that he became somewhat anxious .

“She was perfectly fine before . Why did she faint?” Doctor Li sat down and checked her pulse .
