Chapter 26: Being Sick
Since crossing over, Ling Chu has been busy to save her life, and she has not checked the system carefully.
Now in the dormitory, when no one is around, she just wants to check it out.
When she saw two unread messages, Ling Chu clicked on them and found that they were rewards for completing the task.
One was that a total of 1.23 million taels of property were seized from Wu Yuanji's house, and the system rewarded 123 taels of silver.
Another reward message was that a property worth about 2,193 taels was seized from Aunt Hu's house, and the system rewarded 193 coins.
Ling Chu was a little surprised. She didn't expect that there would be rewards for completing the tasks issued by the system.
It's just that the amount of this reward looks not only willful, but also a little casual.
She clicked to receive the reward and found that the silver money could not only be withdrawn, but also stored in the system. This function is not bad. If it is kept in the system, there is no need to worry about loss or theft.
However, after she crossed over, the system issued three tasks, but I don't know why there were only two rewards.
Could it be that because the first time she copied the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Revenue, because it was her home, there was no reward?
Although there was no reward of silver, the system helped her scan out the hidden stolen silver and prevented the emperor from beheading the Minister of Revenue, which was already the biggest reward.
Ling Chu also found that there was a mall in this system, with all kinds of things in it, and each item was marked with a price. Curious, she tried it with the silver she had just been rewarded, and found that she could really buy things in the mall.
Although she now had a place to live, there were still many things missing in this house. Ling Chu looked around her bedroom. In addition to a wooden bed, there was only a table and two brocade stools.
There was not even a thin quilt on the bed. There were quite a lot of things in the mall, but they all needed money to buy. Ling Chu took a look at the more than 100 taels that the system had just rewarded, and sighed in her heart.
In addition to this little money, she only had more than 200 taels of silver notes left by the original owner.
This house had no other furniture except a few pieces of furniture, and there were many things that needed to be added.
Apart from other things, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, grain, oil, rice, noodles, pots, pans, and other necessities of life are indispensable, after all, she also needs to eat.
After crossing over, although the original owner brought some items from Xuanqing Temple, they were all destroyed when encountering landslides. After returning to Shangshu Mansion, the house was searched again. Now she only has this set of clothes on her body.
Tomorrow, I have to buy some more clothes. The bed is empty. I have to prepare a set of bedding such as mats, mattresses, quilts, pillows, and curtains.
Thinking about it this way, there are still many things to buy, and they are all necessary things, and there is no way to save them.
Because the original owner has yin and yang eyes, maybe because she can see ghosts since she was a child, she will fall ill every two or three days, so she is weak. Although she grew up slowly and learned to control the use of yin and yang eyes, she got sick less.
But her body is only a little better, still much worse than her peers.
If the original owner's master had not prepared health-preserving medicine for her since she was young, she would have died long ago, and how could she have grown up to the age of 15.
In her memory, the health-preserving prescription used by the original owner was prepared with many precious medicinal materials.
Although there were many inconveniences in ancient times, Ling Chu didn't want to die young at such a young age. In this case, she had to find a way to make more money and take care of this body.
She didn't know how many days she could last with such a small amount of money.
Ling Chu sighed.
Poor.
While sighing, she suddenly found that the temperature around her was much lower. Ling Chu frowned and turned her head towards the door, just in time to see Li Lingmu's ghost floating in through the wall.
"Miss Ling..."
As soon as Li Lingmu opened his mouth, Ling Chu sighed and pointed to the door and said, "If you have anything to say, just stand over there and say it."
In the middle of the night, she was weak and didn't dare to let the ghost get too close.
Li Lingmu had been a puppet for many years, so he naturally knew that if humans were often approached by ghosts, their bodies would be damaged.
Hearing Ling Chu's words, he didn't mind. He stopped at the door of the dormitory and said to Ling Chu with gratitude, "Miss Ling, I'm here to say goodbye to you. The emperor has vindicated my case, Wu Yuanji has been beheaded today, and my great revenge has finally been avenged...
But, for your great kindness, I'm afraid I can only wait until my next life to repay you."
Ling Chu shook her head, "Although I helped you, the emperor also let our family off because of this, and you don't owe me anything."
Although this is the case, Li Lingmu knows that if he hadn't met Miss Ling, he would not be able to expose Wu Yuanji's true face, let alone take revenge.
He was full of gratitude to Ling Chu, but it was a pity that he was now a ghost and couldn't repay her. He could only kneel on his knees and kowtow.
"Miss, you are a good person. You helped not only me, Li Lingmu, but more than a hundred lives in my mansion.
Miss, I cannot repay your kindness. I only wish you a healthy and long life..."
As Li Lingmu knelt down and kowtowed, an electronic sound rang out from the system.
"Ding, congratulations to the host, you have obtained 136 merits."
Ling Chu was surprised when she saw the information from the system. Although she knew from the original owner's memory that if she helped the ghosts to fulfill their last wishes before their death, the accumulated merits would be good for herself.
But she didn't expect that she would get so many merits by helping Li Lingmu. It seems that this is not just for Li Lingmu alone, but for the 136 people in his mansion who were chopped.
"Girl, it's time for me to go."
Ling Chu saw the Black and White Impermanence coming from a distance, and knew that it was indeed time for Li Lingmu to go. He had stayed in the human world for so long, and now that his wish had been fulfilled, his soul would naturally return to the underworld.
Li Lingmu's ghost couldn't wait to follow the Black and White Impermanence. Wu Yuanji went to the underworld after his death, and he wanted to go and see him suffer the punishment of the underworld with his own eyes.
Seeing Li Lingmu leave, Ling Chu exchanged merits from the system, and his whole body was surrounded by hidden golden light.
Ling Chu felt it carefully, and his soul and body had further merged, and he seemed to be more stable, unlike before, when he always wanted to leave this body uncontrollably.
He breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he accumulated more merits in the future and insisted on taking good care of himself with the health-preserving prescriptions prepared by his master every day, he should not have to worry about this little life dying at any time.
After getting so many merits from Li Lingmu, Ling Chu decided to burn more sacrifices for him tomorrow so that he could live better in the underworld.
That night, Ling Chu slept well.
But soon after waking up the next day, he was told that the Madam was ill.
The Second Madam didn't sleep well last night, her eyes were dark and she looked haggard. Seeing Ling Chu in good spirits, she was angry.
This bad luck star, the Madam was also sick, but she herself was not only fine, but her spirit looked better than when she just returned home.
The Second Madam was angry, although she didn't curse like yesterday, but she said with a sullen face, "Miss, your fate hasn't been cracked yet?"
