Cultivating Immortality Begins with Selling Oneself

Chapter 120 Something happened
Shen Mengwu picked up the gun and looked at it curiously.

Shen Fuyu also picked up a gun and demonstrated it to them, "Miss, Miss, have you seen this thing?"

"Just gently trigger the trigger and the marbles will shoot out. You can practice your aim."

Shen Fuyu handed it to Shen Mengning.

Compared to Shen Mengwu, Shen Mengning needs this thing more.

Shen Fuyu taught it several times, and seeing that Shen Mengwu and Shen Mengning had mastered it, he fell asleep.

Time flies.

In the blink of an eye, it was time for the day off.

Madam Shen sent Nanny Li to wait outside, and Shen Fuyu and Shen Mengning were just about to get on the carriage.

Unexpectedly, Shen Mengwu stopped them and spoke to Li Ma with a smile.

"Mammy, we want to go out and play for a while. We promise to be home before dark." Shen Mengwu showed a flattering smile, fearing that Mammy Li would not agree.

Shen Mengwu was still thinking about the small teahouse. If she couldn't find a suitable opportunity, she would have wanted to sneak away from the school.

"You."

The Second Young Miss always loved to play, and Madam Shen had specifically warned her against it, so Nanny Li didn't stop her. "Second Young Miss, you can go out and play, but you must pay attention to safety and return home before nightfall."

"The carriage and the driver are in the care of the Second Miss. If you need anything, please let her know."

Nanny Li hurried back without saying a single extra word.

Shen Fuyu narrowed his eyes dangerously. If it were any other time, Nanny Li would definitely give Shen Mengwu more instructions before letting her leave.

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation.

Although Shen Fuyu noticed something was wrong, he didn't say much.

After all, Shen Fuyu was just a servant, and Mrs. Shen didn't want Shen Fuyu to know.

Even if Shen Fuyu noticed something was wrong, he had to pretend not to know.

Shen Mengwu and Shen Mengning walked excitedly on the street.

Shen Mengwu stuck out her tongue playfully and explained to Shen Fuyu, "Shen Fuyu, I want to go to the teahouse. Please come with me."

Shen Mengwu put her arm around Shen Fuyu and acted coquettishly towards her.

"it is good."

Shen Fuyu smiled, knowing that Shen Mengwu was still thinking about what happened last time and wanted to go to the teahouse to listen to some latest gossip. Coincidentally, Shen Fuyu also wanted to know how the matter between Shen Mengyan and Shen Yingfeng was going.

teahouse.

The small teahouse was still crowded, with tea and some melon seeds on the tables.

The storyteller on the stage was so wonderful that he drew cheers from the audience.

The noisy chattering sounds came into my ears, filled with the atmosphere of human life.

Shen Fuyu found a corner seat by the window. Just as he and the Shen sisters sat down, Cheng Ziqi and Lu Mingtang came over.

Shen Mengwu rolled her eyes and before Shen Fuyu could say anything, she shouted, "Senior Brother Cheng, Senior Brother Lu, are you guys coming to the teahouse too?"

"Could it be that he came with us?"

It’s no wonder Shen Mengwu has such thoughts. Ever since they met on the mountain, Cheng Ziqi and Lu Mingtang have shown a close attitude towards Shen Fuyu and the Shen sisters.

Cheng Ziqi chuckled and didn't feel embarrassed at all.

"What a coincidence, this is fate. Senior Brother Lu and I just happened to meet you and came here together."

"Shen Mengwu, you're welcome. We'll cover the tea and snacks."

Cheng Ziqi called the waiter and ordered some snacks. Shen Mengwu was a little angry, "Who cares? We don't need this little money."

"We are all classmates, so it's better to be friendly. Shen Mengwu, we came here this time because we have something to tell you."

Compared to Cheng Ziqi's nonchalant character, Lu Mingtang is much more reliable. Even if Shen Mengwu is unhappy, she will not get angry at Lu Mingtang.

Shen Mengwu became cautious and quietly patted the back of her hand, indicating that Shen Mengwu should listen to the storyteller.

"Senior Brother Lu, is there anything I can help you with?" Shen Fuyu spoke much more politely.

Shen Mengwu and Shen Mengning pricked up their ears.

A sigh escaped from Lu Mingtang's lips, "I heard that the head of the Shen family encountered some problems."

"He fell ill for no apparent reason. It is said that this is because there is an evil spirit in the family."

"I think someone deliberately planned it. Madam Shen didn't send the two young ladies back home right away. She probably didn't want them to face this kind of thing."

"What!?"

Shen Mengwu was the most direct in her emotions. She slammed the table and stood up.

Just as she was about to speak, Shen Fuyu pulled her down.

"Shen Mengwu, this has already happened. Only after understanding the whole story can we come up with a perfect solution. Don't be impulsive."

"Awu, be obedient." Shen Mengning was also comforting her.

Lu Mingtang opened his folding fan and sighed softly, "I also heard about this."

"I didn't want to say anything, but seeing how straightforward the Shen sisters are, I couldn't help but remind them."

While speaking, Lu Mingtang's eyes fell on Shen Fuyu.

He raised his hand, picked up the teacup and took a sip, then looked away to avoid Shen Fuyu noticing anything was wrong. "Misses, don't rush back home. Perhaps you can listen to more in the teahouse."

Sometimes, public opinion can best detect the direction in which things are developing, and whoever the public opinion is most favorable to is the biggest suspect.

"Is the patriarch in good health?" Shen Mengning focused her attention on the patriarch of the Shen family.

My mother is in charge of the big family and relies on the support of the head of the Shen family. If the new head cannot distinguish right from wrong and has a closer relationship with the second branch of the Shen family, her current position will become precarious.

Shen Mengning's eyes were filled with worry, and she looked at Shen Fuyu unconsciously.

Unknowingly, Shen Fuyu has become the backbone.

When encountering problems, the Shen sisters will subconsciously follow Shen Fuyu's opinions.

"The clan leader's life is not in danger for now, but it's hard to say what will happen in the long run."

The Lu family is also one of the three major families, and Lu Mingtang is the eldest son, so he naturally knows more information than outsiders.

"Thank you, Senior Brother Lu."

Shen Fuyu thanked Lu Mingtang on behalf of the Shen sisters.

No matter what the reason was, at least Lu Mingtang really reminded them.

At the same time, voices could be heard from the surrounding tea tables.

"Strange things really happen frequently in the Shen family. A while ago, weren't they saying that Shen Mengyan and the third young master of the Shen family were evil spirits? How did they become the eldest and second young ladies now? It's said that they even killed the head of the Shen family."

"Hush! You're so brave to say such things. The head of the Shen family is alive and well. However, if you ask me, the evildoer should be Shen Mengyan. After all, Shen Mengyan can bring down heavenly punishment."

"Some areas have been experiencing droughts year-round. Could this be due to evil spirits? If Shen Mengyan were burned to death, would that appease the wrath of Heaven? Would the drought problem in the south be resolved?"

"That shouldn't be the case. Shen Mengyan has already been punished. If Shen Mengyan is really a demon, she shouldn't be causing trouble now. I think the demon must be someone else. Tsk tsk tsk, the Shen family is really lively. It's enough for me and my old sisters to talk about for several days."
