Rebirth of the scholarly lady

Chapter 244 The Last Meal

After hearing Nan Surou's words, Dongliu responded: "Yes, maidservant, go and tell Manager Xiang."

After Dong Liu exited the door.

Nan Surou's gaze turned to the dark place behind her, and Qu Lanyi appeared from there at some point.

Nan Surou didn't know when he came, but she subconsciously believed that although Qu Lanyi was very silent, she had the same habit of secretly peeping like Yun Ai.

Nan Surou said nothing, waiting for him to speak.

After a while, Qu Lanyi said expressionlessly: "I have found the place where the Taoist priest is staying. Are you sure you don't want to use your adoptive father's power to deal with this matter?"

Mentioning Kanehu, Nan Surou got a little upset, she said with sarcasm in her tone, "He is very narrow-minded, after I knocked him a sum of money last time, he wouldn't just lend me those things Well, if I ask him for help, then I have to exchange it with equal value, I don't like to exchange with someone like him, so let's talk when we have to."

"Are you going to wait for that crazy woman to show her flaws?" Qu Lanyi raised her dead fish-like eyes.

"Isn't this safer?" Nan Surou said indifferently.

After saying this, Nan Surou suddenly had a strange thought in her heart. So far, she seems to be relatively passive in everything she does. She always waits for things to happen before trying to figure out a solution.

Qu Lanyi lowered her eyes and said, "No, if that's the case, the second lady behind her will have time to make a new plan..."

Nan Surou glanced at him, and said: "Yes, even though that's the case, the matter will never end when soldiers come to cover up water and soil. Even if they are caught off guard this time, there will still be a new round of conspiracy. Don't stop, keep tossing."

She will not refuse Qu Lanyi's benefits, because she has no way to control Qu Lanyi, she might as well do as she pleases, anyway, when Yun Ai comes back and sees, let them make trouble on their own, she doesn't want to care about anything.

"Yu Ru, you still want them to calm down in your heart, but this idea is really negative... If you want them to put away their tossing thoughts forever, you have to make a quick decision." Qu Lanyi still lowered her head, making people Can't see his expression.

"But..." Nan Surou hadn't finished speaking, but was interrupted by the scene in front of her.

At some point, Qu Lanyi came behind her, approached her ear, and whispered something.

Nan Surou narrowed her eyes slightly, squinted at him, and finally exhaled, "Try it."

After saying that, Nan Surou went back to the house to tidy up for a while, and then took Dong Liu, who had just gone to the accountant to spread the word, and boarded the carriage to Wanbaozhai.

Arriving at Wanbaozhai, Qu Lanyi carried a wooden box, passed Nan Surou, and walked directly to the counter.

The shopkeeper is sharp-eyed. He immediately saw that Qu Lanyi got off Nan Surou's carriage, so he hesitated: "Miss... this..."

Before Nan Surou could respond, Qu Lanyi said with a blank face: "Shopkeeper, is there any man here who is eating and drinking, or who has finished eating but is not leaving? Also, I want to put this box , placed at the front desk."

"...This." The shopkeeper looked at Nan Surou with some hesitation.

Nan Surou raised her eyebrows, and finally said: "Shopkeeper, do as he says."

"Yes, miss." The shopkeeper secretly wiped off his sweat, and took the box that Qu Lanyi handed over.

Then, the shopkeeper ordered a waiter to lead them the way, and the servant took Qu Lanyi to Song Ruoshui's private room as a matter of routine.

Qu Lanyi walked lightly like a ghost, walked up to the only figure in the room, and asked expressionlessly, "Is it delicious?"

"That's right..." Song Ruoshui was sitting in a corner of the room in casual clothes, pouring wine into his mouth, wiping the corners of his mouth and saying, "Can these empty plates be taken away? By the way, there is still time." Order the next dish and bring it up."

The wine seemed to be made by Wanbaozhai, and the contents inside were basically wiped out, replaced by a hairy object, which seemed to be the carcass of some kind of animal.

Qu Lanyi gave him a sideways glance, and said coldly, "Do you still want to eat?"

Hearing this, Song Ruoshui woke up half a minute, and began to look at the young man in front of him. He only felt that the young man exuded a lonely aura, filled with a more decadent and more beautiful body than the sixteen or seventeen-year-old. Melancholic impression.

"Aren't you the maidservant of Wanbaozhai? Who? Who are you? What are you looking for?" Song Ruoshui asked while putting down the wine bottle.

Qu Lanyi was the only one who entered Song Ruoshui's private room, while Nan Surou was hiding in a place where she could see the situation inside the room. Seeing Qu Lanyi's unscrupulous, seemingly silly behavior, she couldn't help it Frowning, he thought to himself: That guy Qu Lanyi, what on earth is he trying to do...

"Eat slowly." Qu Lanyi remained expressionless, and sat down across a table from Song Ruoshui.

Hmm... Song Ruoshui stared at him with wide eyes, a little puzzled.

Unexpectedly, Qu Lanyi squinted her eyes and said, "This is your... last meal."

Qu Lanyi concealed the fearless emotion in her tone with disgust.

At this moment, the other side.

The back door of Wanbaozhai ushered in an old man covered in blood—the prince's biological grandfather, Lianchi, and Wanbaozhai's accountant Mr. Lianchi.

The two lazy boys leaning on the door looked at the bloody old man with surprise in their eyes.

"It's so sharp, it's the first time I've seen an old man with such a sharp posture..." A servant scratched his head.

"Shhh, that's the accountant hired by Miss recently. I heard that he is the former Minister of the Household Department, named Lianchi." Another servant immediately stopped him.

The boy who was warned stuck out his tongue, and then he exclaimed again, "Hey, he has blood on his body."

"Oh my god, hurry over and have a look." Another servant also noticed and ran over quickly.

Seeing them coming, Lian Chi smiled kindly: "Please rest assured, I'm not a suspicious person."

His whole body exuded the smell of tide and fish, and his eyes were full of light that seemed to be inhaled.

After the two servants approached him, seeing Lian Chi's appearance, they immediately shivered.

Isn't this honor too scary?

"Sir... what's the matter with you? When did you come back?" The boy who found him first hurriedly took a clean tablecloth to cover Lianchi, and said, "What's going on here? ? Why are you covered in blood?"

Lian Chi sized himself up, then laughed again: "Blood? That's what you're talking about, it's just chicken blood..."

A suspicious light appeared in the eyes of the two servants at the same time, chicken blood?It's fishy!My God, what kind of weird old man did Miss hire to be the accountant?
