The Story of a Plane Merchant Selling a House

Chapter 124 The Old Lady Meets a Ghost

When the old lady returned home, Qiwu had to go to the door to greet her immediately. Qiwu quickly found a crown and put it on, changed his clothes in a hurry, and went out to greet her.

When the old lady returned home and lifted the curtain to see her, she raised her hand perfunctorily in response to her greeting and went straight back to her own courtyard in the sedan chair.

Qiwu did not go with them. Instead, he found various managers and pretended to handle the matter, waiting for the incident to break out.

As a result, when the old lady wanted to eat white fungus at dinner time, the maid went to the storehouse to get it, only to find that the storehouse was empty.

The maid came crawling in. The old lady was about to scold her when she suddenly heard what the maid said, "The storehouse is empty... all... gone..."

The old lady frowned and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? Why don't you drag her away?"

The big maid Ning'er frowned and grabbed the little maid's ear, "You bitch, you've been acting crazy all day, why don't you get out of here right now."

After they were out of the door, she let go of the maid's ears and pulled her to a corner, "What's the matter? You are not usually an unstable person. Why did you go to the old lady and say such things?"

The little maid looked panicked, "Sister Ning, it's really gone. Not even a hair has disappeared from the warehouse. I didn't lie to you. How could I lie to you?"

The head maid Ning'er still didn't believe it, but she didn't go back into the house immediately. She hid aside and saw the old lady sent another head maid to the warehouse.

After a while, the head maid ran back in panic. The old lady pushed her aside and took the maids to check the storeroom.

The head maid Ning'er thought about it and decided not to follow them. She found another excuse to leave the yard.

The old lady pushed open the half-closed door of the storeroom herself. The storeroom was empty.

It wasn't what she thought, that some things might have been stolen, but there was really nothing left, even the large furniture was gone.

The old lady walked in, looked at the empty storeroom, and wanted to curse, "Which bitch..."

The words came to her throat, but she swallowed them back.

Suddenly, a female ghost in white appeared in the warehouse, and slowly approached the old lady at the door.

He stopped one meter away from the old lady, his feet floating in the air, and looked down at the old lady. A bleeding eye was revealed in the hair covering his face.

"Where are my things... Where are my things... Give them back to me... Give them back to me..."

The old lady was so frightened that she sat down on the ground.

The female ghost passed over the fallen old lady and floated towards the maids behind her, "Give me back my things..."

The maids were more agile after all, and they rushed out of the storehouse one after another.

The old lady thought the ghost would follow the large group of people and tried to get up and run away.

The ghost floated to the door, stopped moving, and turned her head.

"Where are you going...give it back to me..."

The old lady rolled her eyes and fainted.

The door of the storehouse creaked automatically without any wind, and the maids did not dare to open the door. When a few people finally mustered up the courage to take a look through the crack in the door, they were met with a bloody eye.

"Give it back to me."

"Ah~" Everyone fled in all directions. No one cared about the old lady who fainted on the ground. They just ran for their own lives.

Qi Wu, who was invisible on the roof and riding a skateboard, smiled and used the system to control the spirit stone to leave the mirage.

He quickly flew back to his own courtyard and waited for changes in the mansion.

After a while, the old lady on the ground woke up slowly and found herself lying on the floor of the warehouse. She squinted her eyes and looked around quietly, but did not see the figure of the female ghost.

But he didn't dare to stand up, so he squatted and crawled out of the warehouse secretly.

When the old lady returned to the room, her clothes were soaked with cold sweat. She lay on the bed for a long time before she could catch her breath. Then she found that there were only a few maids left in the room. She was about to lose her temper again.

Just as he sat up, he saw the shadows of the trees outside the window out of the corner of his eye and shivered again, "Pull the curtains, quickly."

The head maid Ning'er came back with ginseng tea. She had already found out what happened. But since she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she wasn't that scared.

The old lady was hiding in the quilt with her head covered. When she heard Ning'er's voice, she asked Ning'er to lower the bed curtain for her.

Ning'er comforted the old lady softly, "The prince will be here soon, don't worry."

When the prince arrived, he found that there were few people in the yard and frowned.

When he heard his mother in the room shouting at him to come in quickly, he didn't have time to scold the servants.

When the old lady in the room heard his voice, she suddenly became determined and dismissed everyone, "What should I do, my son? That bitch seems to have become a ghost and is asking me to return my things."

The prince frowned, "Are you talking about the ex-mother, the aunt, or Wang Yun?"

The old lady hugged the quilt tightly, "Of course it's that bitch Liu Yun. What right do those concubines have to blame me? I'm a trader. That bitch Liu Yun..."

She saw the wind blowing up the curtains, and they moved, so she quickly huddled under the quilt.

"Liu Yun, that person, seems to have become a ghost. The old marquis also took a share of her dowry. Why did he only look for me? Don't come to me~ My warehouse has been stolen."

The prince also heard that the warehouse was empty, but he was so busy during this period, going out early and coming back late, that he didn't even notice this matter.

He told the maid to take good care of the frightened old lady, and he went to the storehouse with a large number of people. He was cautious and did not enter the door, but just told people to open the door.

The door was open and the situation inside was clear at a glance: it was empty and there was nothing.

The prince waved his hand, and the guards behind him went in to investigate and came out after a while.

"Sir, there are no signs of a mechanism."

The prince frowned and asked, "Have you looked at the beams?"

"There are no marks on the beams. There are no marks on the ground either."

The prince moved away from the warehouse without leaving any trace.

He turned around and was about to go to the old lady's room, but then he thought of something, "Send more people to my private vault, and also send someone to check the public vault."

Qiwu waited in the room for a long time, and half an hour had passed before the prince sent someone to ask her to go to the old lady's yard.

The prince took the initiative as soon as he came up, "How do you manage the family? You didn't even know that the old lady's storehouse was robbed."

Qi Wu was prepared. He acted like he was not trusted and said angrily, "My Lord, I have been busy with the invitation of Marquis Zhan's wife. I have no free time every day. I may not have enough energy. I will not be in charge of the warehouse in the future. I just went to see the warehouse. There is no trace of dragging or moving. Maybe it is the work of ghosts and gods as the servants said."

The prince interrupted anxiously, "Nonsense!"

He was also afraid that Qi Wu would really give up and stop subsidizing Gong Zhong. "I don't mean to blame Madam. Madam has always managed the mansion in an orderly manner. I mean, Madam should tidy up the mansion. Don't let the thieves hide in the mansion."

The prince directly transferred all the guards to the inner courtyard, guarding the courtyard layer by layer. He asked all the wives and concubines to come and wait in the old lady's courtyard. He wanted to investigate the storehouses of each courtyard overnight and catch the hidden thieves.

Qi Wu smiled secretly, "Tsk, the mouse pretending to be a cat is just a trick. The prince is going to steal her storehouse again.

There are some good things in her warehouse, he must not miss them.
