Chapter 65: The Bold Nun
In the next few days, Hai Tingzhou would come to the courtyard to look for Sang Ying from time to time.
Sang Ying, who was wary of the Hai family, did not let him in again, which made the other party angry. Instead, she bought the yard next door to Sang Ying and waited for Sang Ying to go out so that she could try her luck and communicate with her.
But I didn't expect that Sang Ying would stay in trance for days and nights without going out at all.
After waiting for three or four days, Meng Luosheng tried to persuade him to give up, but Hai Tingzhou still persisted. Fortunately, he finally let him wait.
After learning from Meng Luosheng that the courtyard next door was open, Hai Tingzhou hurriedly went out, only to bump into another group of people who came to look for Sang Ying.
The other party was dressed exquisitely and looked arrogant. He was holding a wooden plate covered with red cloth, which seemed to contain something important.
When Hai Tingzhou arrived, the leader of the other party was talking to Sang Ying: "I should have come to see Fairy Sang Ying a long time ago, but the fairy hasn't been out and about in the past few days, so we didn't dare to disturb her rashly.
"
The man who looked like a butler actually spoke beautifully, but his arrogance made Sang Ying see his hidden arrogance.
"I wonder who you are?" Sang Ying asked softly.
The other party smiled: "I don't know, fairies, but that's right. I am the housekeeper of Master Hai Pingge of the Hai family. I am here today to repay a sum of spiritual stones for him."
Repay the spirit stone? She didn't lend the spirit stone to anyone else. The only person who owed her something was...
Sang Ying's eyes sank: "Did your young master help a girl Su to return the spirit stone?"
The housekeeper naturally smiled again: "Fairy is indeed smart. I am indeed here to help Fairy Su return the spirit stone."
He waved, and the man holding the tray behind him immediately walked up. As soon as the red cloth was lifted, more than a hundred middle-grade spiritual stones were revealed.
"There are a total of one hundred and ten middle-grade spiritual stones here. My young master said that the extra ones should be regarded as rewards for the fairy. Seeing that the fairy is living in poverty, he is so worried about even a hundred medium-grade spiritual stones.
It’s really not worth the loss to ruin the relationship between the senior sisters because of this!”
Even Hai Tingzhou, who didn't know the cause and effect, could clearly hear the butler's sarcasm, let alone Sang Ying.
Of course Hai Tingzhou couldn't stand it when his brother's housekeeper humiliated the master he wanted to become. He was about to step forward to help him speak when Sang Ying glanced over and Hai Tingzhou immediately stopped.
"Hey, Young Master Tingzhou is here, I didn't notice it just now. If Young Master Tingzhou doesn't practice well at home, why would he come to a place like this?" These few words of his made a lot of people scold him.
.
Sang Ying seemed not to hear his yin and yang aura, she took the tray with a nonchalant expression, pinched a spirit stone and looked at it: "I thought the Hai family was a rich family, and even the servants were so luxuriously dressed, so I should take action.
You should be more generous. How dare the Hai family reveal the reward of ten middle-grade spiritual stones? Are you trying to deceive me, the Liuguang Sword Sect, that everyone can succeed?"
The tray was overturned by Sang Ying, and the full of spiritual stones slammed into the middle-aged housekeeper. The housekeeper was startled by her sudden attack, and the spiritual stones that came from the head hit the man who was still very proud.
He yelled and jumped and his feet were no longer as pretentious as they were at the beginning.
Because the master he served was very favored, the housekeeper had never been treated like this before in Haizhou City. He immediately pointed at Sang Ying's nose and cursed: "You are such a bold female cultivator, how dare you insult our young master Ping Ge."
! Be careful that our Hai family makes it impossible for you to stay in Haizhou City!"
"It's strange. I heard that the next city lord hasn't been chosen yet? Why do you think that what the housekeeper said is like offending the young master Ping Ge you call, and you are offending the entire Hai family? Why, your master is already
The appointed head of the Hai family?" If it had been someone else today, Sang Ying might have been merciful, but the one who came was just a young master's housekeeper, so naturally she didn't need to be so polite.
Sang Ying's words were like a heavy hammer falling on the housekeeper's head. The housekeeper's furious expression suddenly froze, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes.
He finally realized how big a mistake he had made, and he was actually caught in such a serious way!
The housekeeper swallowed hard, and when he spoke to Sang Ying again, the arrogance on his face at the beginning was gone, and there was an extra hint of flattery on his face: "Fairy, please don't misunderstand me, I was just joking with you before.
Well. My young master is very happy to make friends with fairies, and the ten extra spiritual stones are just interest. I misunderstood the young master’s meaning and said the wrong thing. Fairy, please don’t take it seriously!”
As he explained, he called for people to pick up all the spiritual stones, wiped them clean and put them back on the tray.
Hai Tingzhou on the side was surprised and admired when he saw Sang Ying calming down the housekeeper alone.
When the butler was carrying the tray and wanted to serve it again, he even came up to join in the fun: "Butler Li has been with my second brother for so many years, but there are times when he doesn't guess what he is thinking? Tsk, tsk, tsk, then you really have to be good.
Remember this lesson, Fairy Sang Ying also has a good temper, if it had been anyone else, I would have beaten you out long ago."
Hearing this, the housekeeper laughed apologetically.
How could he have forgotten that there is a direct descendant of the Hai family standing here? If the other party tells the head of the family what he just said, not only will he be unlucky, but also Master Ping Ge will be implicated.
The housekeeper only had regrets in his heart at the moment, and he also had opinions about Su Fuyun. If she hadn't borrowed the spirit stone and refused to return it, how could he have suffered such a misfortune?
After silently lamenting a few times in his heart, the butler held the tray and spoke again: "Fairy Sang Ying has a lot of them. I made a mistake and said the wrong thing. I will definitely apologize to my young master when I go back. But I still ask the fairy to collect these spiritual stones."
Get off!"
The tray he served diligently was pushed away by Sang Ying.
The young female cultivator could already see the elegant demeanor of the future, and she was quite imposing when she had a solemn face: "You'd better take this spirit stone back, and tell my senior sister by the way. I want her to return the spirit stone to me.
Instead of asking her to pay me back with other people's money. If she can't afford it, it's better to return the demon pet to the seller."
These words have only one meaning in everyone's ears - why would you buy a demon pet if you don't have money?
It was clear that Su Fuyun had nothing to do with him, but after hearing this, the housekeeper felt ashamed.
Afraid of making the two of them lively if they stayed any longer, the housekeeper did not dare to force Sang Ying to accept the spirit stone. He could only say a few more good words, and then went back obediently with the spirit stone and the servants.
Hai Tingzhou watched the group leave with unconcealable joy on his face: "Fellow Taoist Sang Ying, you are so awesome. You scared Butler Li away with just a few words."
"This is nothing." He just borrowed the name of Liuguang Sword Sect. No housekeeper would dare to provoke Gu Huaiwei's direct disciple at will.
She looked at Hai Tingzhou, who still had a smile on his face, suppressed the complexity in her eyes, and asked with half doubt and half confusion: "Have you ever thought about being the next head of the family?"
"Wha, what?!" Hai Tingzhou was so frightened that he dropped the fan in his hand.
