Chapter 29 The extra money will be calculated as interest
Lu Chengjing’s handsome face with sharp edges was suddenly turned into a doughy face by her, and he struggled to spit out four words between his teeth, "Full of flaws."
Shang Wan: "..."
So, blame her for not acting well?
The pain on his face was getting worse and worse. Lu Chengjing couldn't help but raise his hand to grab Shang Wan's wrist. His cold black eyes were watery with pain, and a touch of red appeared at the end of his eyes. His face, which had been healed by the spiritual spring water, was already red.
Shang Wan clicked his tongue, reluctant to let go of this face.
She let go of her hand and looked at Lu Chengjing looking like he had been bullied. She suddenly felt that she was at a disadvantage, so she stretched out her hand and rubbed Lu Chengjing's face twice, thinking about how to add some meat to her vase so that it would feel better when rubbed.
Lu Chengjing was pinched, pulled and kneaded by her like dough, and he felt very annoyed in his heart. Why did this woman always like to touch him?
He was annoyed, and Shang Wan calmed down. He reached out and grabbed a handful of black hair scattered beside him and played with it.
Lu Chengjing lowered his eyes and frowned, "You... like playing with your hair?"
"Correction, I like to play with beauties' hair." Shang Wan raised his eyes, his eyes fell on Lu Chengjing's slightly scattered clothes, and his tone was very regretful, "Who makes beauties shy and don't let me play with other things."
Lu Chengjing was stunned for a moment. When he realized what he meant, he blushed to the roots of his ears. He couldn't lie down anymore and tried to sit up with his left hand. Unexpectedly, Shang Wan suddenly turned over and pressed him down. The two of them met each other instantly, their eyes intertwined.
From Shang Wanqing's clear and bright eyes, Lu Chengjing saw his embarrassment clearly, and the blush on his face suddenly became even brighter.
He turned away, exposing his red ears.
Shang Wan just wanted to tease him.
This man was as unmoved as ever, he hadn't done anything, and he was almost turning into a cooked shrimp.
"Your ears are so red, what are you thinking about that is not suitable for children?" Shang Wan leaned closer, and all the heat of his words was sprayed on Lu Chengjing's ears.
"No." Lu Chengjing was so flustered that he even started to stutter when he spoke, "You, you, you, go down."
"Right away." Shang Wan pinched his chin and turned his head around. Under Lu Chengjing's nervous gaze, she leaned her fair right face closer and pressed her pale lips against his, and then again.
Lu Chengjing's eyes widened in shock when he felt a warm and soft touch that belonged only to his skin on his lips, and he forgot to react.
"The extra money will be calculated as interest." Shang Wan, who had successfully played rogue, pulled him up with a smile and helped him straighten his hair while asking, "Why did you go to the inn if it wasn't to catch an adulterer?"
Lu Chengjing pursed his lips. The soft touch seemed to still remain on his lips, with a hint of the fragrance of vegetation.
He half-lidded his long eyelashes and said slowly: "The servants from the Qiao Mansion came to send a message, saying that Yuan drank too much at Fuyuan Inn and had a conflict with others. They couldn't stop him and were worried that Yuan would be punished when he returned home. Let me go to Fuyuan Inn to help persuade."
"Is that boy really from Qiao Mansion?"
"Yeah." Lu Chengjing nodded, "When I was a guest at Qiao Mansion, I met him once in Yu'an's courtyard."
If he hadn't been sure that the boy was Qiao Yu'an, he wouldn't have rushed to Fuyuan Inn in a hurry, and what happened next wouldn't have happened.
Shang Wan asked: "Have you informed Qiao Yu'an about this?"
"No." Lu Chengjing's voice was very soft.
Shang Wan held his chin and raised it, staring into his eyes, "Do you suspect that Qiao Yu'an is the one who sent the anonymous letter to Tian Sheng?"
Lu Chengjing was noncommittal and just said: "When Li Wenhua drunkenly confided Tian Sheng's secret, Yu'an happened to come looking for me. I don't know how much he heard."
Shang Wan frowned, "You didn't tell Mr. An about this."
Declarative sentences she used.
"It's just speculation, no evidence." Lu Chengjing said, "I have known Yu'an for many years. He is not a villain with a knife in his sleeve. I...I don't want to doubt him." "It shouldn't be him." Shang Wan felt that Qiao Yuan was not Like a deep-seated person in the city, "You have known each other for many years. Even if an innkeeper comes to tell you that something happened to Qiao Yu'an, you will rush over to take a look. There is no need for Qiao Yu'an to use people around him to send the message, otherwise it will make you suspicious in vain."
Lu Chengjing also thought of this.
Shang Wan said: "Then you still have to tell Qiao Yu'an about this. If that boy is really bribed, it will be a disaster to stay around."
"I'm writing..." Lu Chengjing paused, then remembered his unconscious right hand, and changed his words, "I have to return the oxcart tomorrow, and I asked Shitou to stop by Qiao's house and send a message to Yu'an."
Shang Wan glanced at his right hand hanging on the edge of the kang, said nothing, and turned around to go out.
In the kitchen, Shi Shi was guarding the stove making medicine. When he saw Shang Wan walking in, he couldn't help turning his head away and snickering.
Shang Wan patted him on the head and said, "I was bitter and resentful just now, but now I am laughing happily."
Shitou rubbed his head. Isn't he happy for his young master?
He saw just now that the two of them were lying on the kang and talking quietly. It seemed that their relationship was better than when they were in the mansion.
After being happy, he couldn't help but worry, "Sister, is it true that the young master can't get better?"
Shang Wan put down the water glass, "I'm not a doctor, you ask me?"
Shitou immediately sent a rainbow fart, "I think sister is better than doctor."
Shang Wan: "My intuition is pretty accurate."
"That's right, my intuition has always been..." Shitou paused, looked at Shang Wan, and opened his mouth wider and wider. Was this what he understood? Is it is it?
"Sister, sister...do you have a way to cure the young master?"
Shang Wan chuckled and nodded. The boy's reaction was quite amusing,
"Sister! You are my biological sister!" Shitou jumped for joy, his eyes shining with admiration.
Xiaohuan came in after feeding the wild ducks and asked doubtfully: "Stone, why are you jumping around?"
You were secretly crying just now, why are you so happy now?
Stone couldn't wait to tell Xiaohuan the good news, and then another one went crazy in the kitchen.
Shang Wan held his forehead, he had known better not to tell these two.
She warned the two of them, "Only our family members know about this, and no one is allowed to tell it."
The two nodded repeatedly.
Shitou couldn't help but ask: "Sister, what medicine do you need? I'll go to Brother Yuan's house to buy it."
"No need for now." Shang Wan pointed at the medicine jar, "The medicine is almost gone."
"My medicine!" Shitou hurriedly rescued his own medicine, while Shang Wan took Xiaohuan out and asked Xiaohuan to talk about the progress of the house's repairs.
Xiaohuan was about to mention this matter to her.
"Uncle Zhang said that our house was renovated from an old house, and no one had lived in it for several years, so rats gnawed many places. Brother Zhang also found two termite nests on the beams, and I don't know if there are any in other places. If the wood is eaten away by termites, the house will no longer be inhabitable.”
"Uncle Zhang thinks that instead of repairing the old house, it is better to tear it down and build it again. There will be less hidden dangers. At present, they have only replaced the new tiles for us and filled the big holes in the wall. The rest of the place has not been touched, so we will wait. You and the young master are back to make up your mind."
Xiaohuan asked: "Sister, should we repair the house and continue to live in it, or tear it down and build a new house?"
Shang Wan looked around at the thatched houses with only new tiles, and asked, "How much money does it cost to build a new house?"
