Traveling through the Republic of China, I married a dead person

It is appropriate to describe Su Bai as distraught at this moment.

After half a month of bargaining and struggle, with Zi Yan and Yuan Yuze as helpers in the Kong Mansion, and Kong Dai as one, and Zhou Beiwang and Liu Yiyan outside the Kong Mansion, the good situation that had just been developed was suddenly destroyed.

impossible!

I won’t be so unlucky!

I remembered an old saying that dreaming about people dying actually increases their life span. Last night I dreamed that Zhou Beiwang and Liu Yiyan died so many times, their life spans must have increased to over 100 years old, right? Why did they both die today?

She asked Yuan Yuze to go to the guard camp again to find Captain Bai, or perhaps it was God's will, and find out the details before coming back.

Just a few minutes after Yuan Yuze left, the eldest daughter Kong Man and the second daughter Kong Yun arrived.

As soon as she entered the backyard, she started shouting, as if she was here to cause trouble for Su Bai: "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, we have wiped out the bandits' lair in Panlong Cave!"

"We?" Su Bai asked unhappily, "Are you going to bring it, or am I going to bring it?"

The two were surprised: "Why is the sister-in-law unhappy?"

"It's not a matter of being happy or not. It has nothing to do with our Confucius Mansion."

Kong Man told Su Bai that Kong Chen had already instructed the kitchen to prepare a table full of delicious dishes to reward the meritorious soldiers.

Su Bai became even angrier. Wasn't it the money of our Confucius Mansion that was used to buy all this delicious food?

"That's true," Kong Man came to his senses, "We have already divided the money with the Seventh Army. We should pay for Second Uncle to come home and have some home-cooked meals, but it's not appropriate for him to eat and drink so much, right?"

Su Bai pointed at the new cheongsam Kong Yun was wearing: "The army commander will have one meal, and the division commander and brigade commander will have another meal in a few days. Do we still have anything to wear?"

The second lady Kong Yun was well comforted by Su Bai these days. With the help of Kong Man, she made two new sets of clothes and bought some jewelry for her. This also aroused the jealousy of the fifth concubine. Because of this, the eldest lady Kong Man and the fifth concubine had a quarrel.

This is exactly the result Su Bai wanted. He used money to cultivate his own direct lineage in the Confucius Mansion and let them fight among themselves.

The second young lady also spoke up for Su Bai in the Kong Mansion, but this was only temporary. She would eventually have to be given an explanation for the matter between the second wife and Wang Yutian.

The only good news is that Kong Chen will return to Tianlong County after finishing this feast today.

With this ferocious god pressing down on me, I felt suffocated in my chest.

According to Zhou Beiwang, as soon as Kong Chen leaves, the man named Gao Hu will take over the defense of the Kong Mansion. From now on, no matter where he goes, there will be someone following him closely.

But no matter what, as long as Kong Chen was not there, he would not feel as depressed in the Kong Mansion as he had in the past few days. He had to walk quickly when passing by the Second Hospital, for fear that Kong Chen would ask him to go into his room.

Every time he comes to see me, nothing good happens, without exception.

Kong Man and Kong Yun proposed to have dinner with their sister-in-law. Su Bai asked Zi Yan to notify the kitchen to send the meal that should be delivered to the two young ladies' rooms here.

Zi Yan came back soon. She called Su Bai to the yard and told her quietly that she met Captain Bai Ying in the front yard. He was also among the soldiers who were being entertained and rewarded by Kong Chen. For fear of attracting attention, he only said a few words to Zi Yan in a hurry. During the banquet, he would find an excuse to stroll around the moon gate between the second and third courtyards and tell the eldest young lady something.

"You are stupid. Time is tight. Can't you first ask whether Zhou Beiwang is dead or alive?" Su Bai poked Zi Yan with a finger.

"He was talking while he was walking, and I couldn't stop him, right?" Zi Yan looked aggrieved.

The food was served, and Kong Yun sat next to Su Bai, with a sister-in-law on his left and a sister-in-law on his right. They held hands from time to time and smiled on Su Bai. The second lady's innocence made Su Bai at a loss. She felt that she might never be able to do anything to her.

The move was certainly not to kill her, but to follow Zhou Beiwang's idea to forcibly send her to a certain place to control her and temporarily wrong her for a while.

Although this method was rejected by Su Bai at that time, she considered it many times after returning from Jingxuan Teahouse. This was indeed a last resort.

"Sister-in-law, how about my sister and I move in with you?" Kong Yun was still not being honest while eating, and put his arm around Su Bai affectionately.

She said that Su Bai was too lonely living in the backyard. Her mother was not around, and she was also lonely living in the east backyard, and sometimes she was scared.

"Don't you have a maid?" Su Bai asked her.

Kong Yun said that ever since his mother gave Zi Yan to Su Bai, the new maid she got was too stupid, like a fool, and had no vision at all.

She moves when you tell her to, but she doesn't like to order people around.

The eldest daughter currently lives with the sixth concubine in the West Second Courtyard. After the master passed away, the house has been empty. It would be better for the two sisters to move next door to Su Bai.

Kong Man saw from Su Bai's hesitation that Su Bai was not enthusiastic about this matter, so he said to Kong Yun, "Okay, then let's make a deal. I'll live upstairs and you'll live downstairs, or I'll find you noisy!"

"Up, down?" Su Bai was puzzled. Are there bunk beds here?

The "down there" Kong Man was talking about was not the bunk beds, but the basement.

A few years ago, when the Kong family army retreated back to Longxing, they expanded the Kong Mansion on the basis of the old house and specially built this basement for future use. The entrance is in the master's west room, which is the room separated by a wall from Su Bai's bedroom.

This basement is very large, extending from the backyard of the Confucius Mansion to the bottom of the ancestral hall in the west backyard.

After the Confucius Mansion was built, this basement has not been used and has remained empty.

"You don't know yet?" Kong Man pointed to the ground: "It's empty underneath too."

How could Su Bai know that before the master passed away, she had only been to the bedroom to the east of the master's main hall.

Kong Dai never told himself that there was a basement in the Kong Mansion.

It’s not his fault. The basement has never been used since it was built, so Kong Dai probably didn’t take it seriously.

Su Bai thought of the batch of gold bars. Could they be hidden in the basement?

This idiotic guess was denied in a second. Everyone knew about the basement and it was impossible to hide the gold bars there.

Kong Dai also said that the master had wiped out one of his guards on the grounds of rebellion, so how could it be here? Even Kong Chen thought it might be somewhere in the Kong Mansion, but Su Bai felt it was completely impossible. This batch of gold bars must be outside the Kong Mansion.

However, when he starts making medicine himself, he now has a good place. According to Kong Man's description, even if the area of ​​this basement is not enough for a small factory, it can definitely be used to build a large workshop.

The future is bright, but the reality is annoying.

The current troubles made Su Bai feel that he had no mood at all, and he had no time to start his pharmaceutical business.

Kong Man made the most appropriate decision. She moved out of the West Second Courtyard and lived with the Second Miss in the East Backyard.

The east backyard is separated from Su Bai's middle backyard by a door, making it convenient to move around.

Although Kong Man is only two years older than Kong Yun, she is much more sensible. After dinner, she said that her sister-in-law wanted to rest, and took Kong Yun to her east backyard, where they discussed which room she would live in after moving in.

Zi Yan hurriedly ate a bite of food and went to the Third Hospital to wait for Bai Ying. It had been almost an hour since she left, but she still hadn't come back.

Su Bai stood in front of the door and waited but there was no sign of Zi Yan. She was so anxious that she didn't care about anything else and went to the moon gate between the third and second courtyards in person.

Zi Yan was strolling back and forth non-stop.

Seeing Su Bai coming, she shook her head, but Bai Ying never came out.

She comforted Su Bai, saying that there would be a lot of wine at the banquet and it would not be over in a short time. Bai Ying would probably find a chance to come out when everyone had almost finished drinking.

“It’s been a long time.”

"They eat later than us. Madam, you should go back. I think it will take a while." Zi Yan advised Su Bai.

As soon as Zi Yan finished speaking, Bai Ying flashed out from the corner of the main room of the second courtyard and trotted a few steps to the two of them.

As expected, something happened to Zhou Beiwang.
