Chapter 392 The Person She's Taken a Chance Of
Shen Long and Shen Hu's expressions became even more strange.
"What are you doing?" Yunlu couldn't stand it anymore and kicked each of them. "You're so reluctant to talk, it's really unpleasant to watch."
"Little Greenie, why are you hitting people?" Shen Long muttered, rubbing his bottom. "And you even spanked me? Are you even a woman?"
"I hit you because you were so slow and indecisive. I don't care whether I'm a woman or not, but your slow and indecisive behavior is not like that of a man at all."
"Little Greenie, you hit me, and you even curse at me? Do you know if I'm a man or not?" Shen Long glared at him.
Upon hearing this, everyone was suddenly stunned.
There was an awkward silence for a second.
Yunyi couldn't help but chuckle: "Why don't you two find a place to test each other? See if she's a woman, and see if you're a man?"
Yunlu and Shenlong both blushed.
“Young Miss, you…” Yun Lu stomped her foot, then glared at Shen Long, turned to leave, but stopped after taking two steps. It wasn’t just her who was embarrassed, so why should she leave?
Shen Long scratched his head, secretly glanced at Yun Lu, and his face turned even redder.
Shen Hu rolled his eyes at his younger brother, thinking he was such a blockhead, but he couldn't care less about that at the moment. He quickly stepped forward and asked, "Eldest brother, do you know what happened at the Earl's mansion?"
"What is it?" Yun Yi raised an eyebrow slightly. Even if she knew, she couldn't tell you, since she did it herself.
"The Earl's mansion has been emptied out." Shen Hu lowered his voice, but his gloating expression was too conspicuous.
"Oh?" Yunyi smiled. "What happened?"
"I don't know, the key is..." Shen Hu glanced at Shen Long again, "You tell me."
“Boss, wasn’t I assigned to the North City? Strangely enough, today many poor families in the North City inexplicably received clothes and food, and some even received silver.” Shen Long didn’t care about being embarrassed at this point. “I took a look, and they are all good things. They should all have been lost from the Earl’s mansion.”
"Is this...someone robbing the rich to help the poor?" Yunlu's attention also shifted. "I wonder which divine being has appeared." As she spoke, she glanced at Yunyi. Yesterday, it was the young lady who had strolled into the Marquis's mansion. Although she found it unbelievable, her intuition told her that it was the young lady who did it.
Yunyi chuckled: "So, people should do more good deeds."
Although the group found it strange, they still nodded in agreement.
Shen Hu was even more adept at flattery: "Don't worry, boss. Since we started following you, we've all learned to behave better. Really, since I became a yamen runner, I've never bullied any ordinary people."
"Hmm." Yun Yi nodded. "The officialdom is very complicated. It would be best if you could stay true to your original intentions. Don't worry, I will stand up for you if anything happens in the future. But if one day I find out that you are bullying men and women and are still acting like thugs, I will kill you first."
Hearing Yun Yi's gentle voice, Shen Long and Shen Hu felt a chill inexplicably run down their spines and hurriedly shook their heads: "No, we're determined to be good people."
"Alright, let's eat."
Yunlu turned around to help set the table, but ended up face-to-face with Shen Long, who had also turned around. The two of them froze for a moment, then blushed for some reason, and hurriedly tried to move away, but the more they rushed, the more mistakes they made.
Yunlu went to the left, and Shenlong also went to the left.
Shen Long moved to the right, and Yun Lü also moved to the right.
The person made way for the others three times, and finally they passed each other.
Yunyi was amused by what she saw, and finally nudged Shen Hu: "Ah Long is obviously going to find a girlfriend, what about you? Anything going on?"
“I…” Shen Hu swallowed hard. “Boss, you’ve really hurt my feelings. Nobody’s interested in me yet.”
"Have you found someone you like? If they're a good person, I'll help you propose."
“I used to think the daughter of Old Liu, who sells tofu at the West Gate, was quite nice, but when I inquired, I found out she was already engaged.” Shen Hu sighed, “So now, neither of them has taken a liking to me, nor do I have a liking for them.”
"Haha." Yunyi laughed. "Poor Tiger Head, but don't worry, there are plenty of fish in the sea. Take your time."
……
At this moment, the atmosphere in the Chengen Earl's mansion was still gloomy. No one expected that overnight, the mansion's storerooms would be emptied, and there would be no food left. How were they supposed to survive?
"My lord," Fang Zhong said, trembling with fear, "I've heard that some sects in the martial world are incredibly powerful. For example, they have the Five Elements Transporting Technique, which can move things away silently. There are also those who communicate with ghosts and spirits, who can use ghosts and spirits..."
"Enough!" Fang Tang shouted sharply. "Confucius said, 'You should not talk about strange phenomena, physical prowess, disorder, or spirits.' Don't go out and say such things, lest you implicate the Earl's family."
Fang Zhong was so frightened that he quickly shut his mouth.
"Dad, sob..." Fang Yunduo ran over, crying, "There's really nothing left, sob, what am I going to do? My dowry..."
"Alright, stop crying." Fang Tang rubbed his temples. "Su Mu, is there any news from the yamen?"
Su Mu shook his head: "I searched everywhere but couldn't find any clues. These things seem to have... vanished into thin air." However, he remembered the shadow he saw last night, and when he connected it with what happened in the manor, he shuddered inexplicably. Could it really be that he had been haunted by a ghost? For the first time, he, who had never believed in ghosts and gods, wavered.
In the corner of the courtyard, Wu Qiusheng nudged Fang Xiao: "Old Fang, what do you think this is all about?" The two of them got seasick and vomited together on the boat, and were almost killed by river bandits. Later, Yun Yi healed Yun Chen and saved them. So after they came back, their relationship seemed to have improved a lot, and they became friends who could talk about anything.
"I don't know." Fang Xiao shook his head, but for some reason, he kept having this thought in his mind: this matter must be related to the young lady who ran away from home. As for why he thought that... well, he just felt that the young lady was no ordinary person.
"Do you think it might be the young lady?" Wu Qiusheng looked around, then leaned closer and spoke in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
"Don't talk nonsense."
“That’s just a guess.” Wu Qiusheng’s eyes were bright. “After all… nothing like this has ever happened before. The young lady just left and this happened… Anyway, I think the young lady is no ordinary person.”
Fang Xiao curled the corners of his lips, thinking the same thing. However, this matter was of great importance, so it was best not to express his opinion: "We are just servants. How our master behaves is not something we can say."
"Old Fang," Wu Qiusheng's expression turned serious, "I know you dare not say it, but we have been through thick and thin together. Although I have no ties, I still want to have a better life and a home of my own in the future. So, I want to seek refuge with Miss."
