Chapter 369: Hungry and Desperate (Supplement) [Thank you! Thank you again! words to be updated]

Men's Courtyard,
After talking to the servant, Han Chengyun frowned with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

Not knowing what he was thinking of, Han Chengyun said "No" while shaking his head.

At this time,

At the moon gate of the villa, a servant from Duke Lu's family came over holding a jar of wine.

Even though the Lingguo Mansion is now in decline internally, the children of the Lingguo family still like to show off how rich and powerful they are externally.

Some people who don't know the inside story can easily be fooled by such actions.

But it’s not the fault of the Duke’s son.

Because if they show any sign of wanting to save money today, debt collectors might come to the Duke's Mansion to demand money in the evening.

Han Chengyun thought about this and looked towards the bustling house again.

His eyes lit up and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Subsequently,

Han Chengyun took out a piece of silver from his waist pouch, took a few steps and stood in front of the Lu family servant. He took the wine jar with one hand, threw the silver in his hand over, and said:
"Go, buy some more meat and sweet fruits, and the rest you can buy yourselves some food."

"Yes! Yes! Thank you, Goro."

Looking at the silver in his hand, the servant of the Lu family hurriedly bowed and thanked him.

After the servant turned around and left, Han Chengyun put the wine jar in the hand of his own servant, and took out a porcelain bottle from the pouch on his waist.

After uncorking the bottle, five pills poured out.

Han's servant: "Sir, what are you doing?"

"Shut up!"

Han Chengyun scolded in a low voice.

After thinking about it, Han Chengyun took back two pills.

Then he raised his chin and said, "Open the wine jar."

After the servant opened the seal on the wine jar, Han Chengyun clenched the three pills in his hand.

Then he slowly moved the porcelain bottle in his other hand towards the mouth of the wine jar and shook it.

When the porcelain bottle was empty, Han Chengyun put the three pills in his hand back and said to himself, "Before getting married, I will indulge myself these three times!"

"Sir, have you forgotten? There are still two bottles of the medicine Qin Dalang sent in your study!"

"Shut up! Shake it well and send it in!"

After the Han family's servant went in, he heard the chattering inside. Han Chengyun waited for a moment and then pushed the door and walked in.

"Wu Lang, why are you here so late? Is it because you can't pee cleanly?"

"Go to hell! I just heard the Taoist boy talking about the hall where the spirit tablets are to be worshipped tonight."

After the conversation,

There was another sound of wine bowls colliding.

"Come on, drink this bowl of deer antler wine!"

Inside Yuqing Temple,

The sky is already dark,

The autumn rain stopped for a while and then started again.

I know there is a noble person in the temple.
The stone lanterns along the way were lit up early, dimly illuminating the wet ground around the stone lanterns.

In front of the main hall,
Down the stairs,
The maid Yunmu held up a large oil-paper umbrella to shield the rain from her daughter Chai Zhengzheng's head.

Amid the "tapping" sound of rain falling on umbrellas, several maids from the Chai family walked around the hall. After confirming that there were no outsiders, they came to the hall door and nodded to indicate that it was safe.

Seeing this scene, Yunmu hurriedly followed the girl in front of him and walked into the palace.

The maids Fuyi and Ziteng behind her held up their umbrellas to shield the rain for Zhu's sister-in-law, who was holding a basket of paper money.

Climb up the stairs and enter the temple.

Inside the hall, there were three rows of candles on the large lampstand in the middle of the wall. Normally, only the top row was lit, but today all three rows were lit.

The interior of the hall was very bright.

In the candlelight, I came to the wall where the spirit tablet was enshrined.
Chai Zhengzheng looked at the bright lamp in front of the spirit tablet, while Yunmu and others were busy placing the cushions and arranging the offerings.

When Fu Yi was about to take the incense sticks from the altar, Chai Zhengzheng said, "Fu Yi, I can do it myself!"

Taking the incense sticks handed over by Fu Yi, Chai Zhengzheng lit them and said, "Tell the nanny outside the door later and ask her to find someone to buy some food. In the evening, please have some wine with the Zhu family's sister-in-law who helped."

"Yes, girl!"

After a while, the altar was set up.

Chai Zhengzheng came to the table, inserted the incense stick in his hand into the incense burner, bowed, and stood aside.

The paper money in the brazier was ignited.

Yunmu supported Chai Zhengzheng on the side, while Fuyi and Ziteng knelt on the mat in front of the brazier.

Fu Yi used a fire stick to pick up the paper money that Zi Teng had put into the brazier, muttering to herself:
"Sister Qingxue, last month, Miss and we went to Daxiangguo Temple to worship. We saw that not only were the nuns in charge of offering sacrifices not attentive, but the place was also a bit cramped, so Miss decided to move your and the nuns' spirit tablets to Yuqing Temple."

"Everything is fine, girl, please rest assured."

Yunmu looked at Chai Zhengzheng, whose eyes had tears, and sighed secretly.

The temples in Bianjing City,

I don’t know if it was because he had seen too many wealthy families offering sacrifices, or because he thought that his daughter would only go to worship around the Ghost Festival like she did last year, so he didn’t take good care of it.

However, since the anniversary of Qingxue and others' death was in late June, the girl did not make a big fuss and took people to the temple at that time.

The result was that before July, all the spirit tablets were moved to the Yuqing Temple.

When the things in the basket were half burned, there was a sudden noise outside the hall.

When Yunmu saw his girl nod, he let go of her hand and walked out of the hall.

"what happened?"

Not hearing anyone's response, Yunmu came to the door of the hall and looked outside.

Yunmu could not see clearly as he walked from the bright hall to the somewhat dark outside.

After recognizing that the people standing at the door were Qing Zhi and Zhu's sister-in-law sent by the Gu family, Yun Mu raised his voice and shouted:
"What about people?"

"Miss Yunmu, they are over there! I don't know where this drunkard came from, but he keeps coming to the main hall!"

As soon as Qing Zhi finished speaking,

A male voice came: "I am just passing by here. Why can't you let me go forward? Do you know who I am?"

Chai's nanny said, "Sir, there are women ahead! And this is not the way!"

"Why do you care about me? How dare you not put my Ma family in your eyes??? Hiss! Let me hug you!!"

In a blur, Yunmu saw someone hugging Chai's nanny and moving around.

"Ouch! Dirty, scum! Get out of here!!"

The extremely annoyed and terrified voice of Nanny Chai was heard!

Yunmu frowned, walked forward, and after going down the stairs, he shouted, "Mr. Ma, please respect yourself!"

The young man from the Houma family of Jinxiang was gasping for breath and was pushed to the ground by the nanny from the Chai family.

He stood up with the help of the servant beside him. In the light of the stone lamp on the roadside, the young man from Jinxiang Hou's family saw Yunmu's appearance clearly.

"Finally, a younger guy has come. He's really handsome! Let me treat him well."

As he said that, the Ma family member stood up and rushed towards Yunmu.

Yunmu narrowed his eyes and was about to kick the Jinxiang Hou family's lad in the crotch when someone stood up beside him.

“It hurts, it hurts~ Let go!”

The young man from the Jinxiang Hou family cried out in pain, but his waist and hips were still twisting uncontrollably.

The sister-in-law of the Zhu family beside Yunmu twisted the arm of the young man of the Ma family and said, "Miss Yunmu, you can't kick him in the vitals, otherwise there will be endless troubles."

Before Sister-in-law Zhu finished her words,

Not far away, three more people were supported by servants and staggered over.

"I can't stand it anymore. I remember I didn't take any pills!"

"Lu Sanlang, you bastard! How come your wine is so strong!"

"Where is my cousin?"

As they were talking, the three of them saw Qingzhi and Yunmu standing in front of the hall.

"Two beauties!"

After saying that, Duke Lingguo's Lu Sanlang untied the silk belt around his waist with a lewd smile and ran over here.
