My God of Wealth is a Short-lived Ghost

Zhao Jinghua chuckled nonchalantly, took Wan Sutong's hand and walked towards West City. Only after they were far away did Wan Sutong dare to ask, "Why do I feel like he has something else in his words?"

"Tsk tsk tsk, that bricklayer was mocking him openly and secretly." 0533 After he finished speaking, he looked at Zhao Jinghua, "Is he thinking that you are a gigolo? You are so generous that you can just laugh it off."

Upon hearing this, Wan Sutong immediately turned around and angrily went to ask the mason for an explanation, "How could he say that to you!"

Seeing this, Zhao Jinghua quickly raised his hand to stop Wan Sutong. "Sutong, I don't care."

When Wan Sutong heard this, she looked at Zhao Jinghua with helplessness in her eyes, "But I care!"

Zhao Jinghua chuckled and touched Wan Sutong's puffy cheek. "It's better to have less trouble than more. If you offend him, he may be short of bricks and tiles in his house, and you don't know it."

Wan Sutong could only turn around angrily after hearing this, and asked in a puzzled tone, "Why does he think you are a gigolo?"

Zhao Jinghua lifted the gauze to cover Wan Sutong. He bent down and kissed Wan Sutong's forehead. "Because, no man in Zhao country wears a veil. What they wear is a veil made of black gauze. Unless the people in the martial arts world want to cover the magic weapon on their waist to hide their identity."

Wan Sutong was stunned when she heard this. She looked up at Zhao Jinghua with a guilty look on her face. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't know. I was wondering why I always called you girl." At this point, Wan Sutong looked at 0533 with a surprised tone. "Why didn't you tell me?"

0533 shrugged innocently, "This system didn't know that Zhaoguo's clothing was so particular. This system thought they had poor eyesight. No wonder people on the street were secretly looking at him. Some men's eyes were almost glued to him."

Wan Sutong held her forehead in her hand in silence, "Where is the 1.8 meter tall woman?"

Zhao Jinghua held Wan Sutong in his arms with a smile on his face. "They may think that I have a high bun. Besides, my Sutong is beautiful, so they are naturally curious about me in the curtain."

Wan Sutong raised her head proudly when she heard this. "That's right, I am as beautiful as a fairy." After that, Wan Sutong began to search in the spiritual sea and finally found the black mask that Zhao Jinghua had worn on the Qixi Festival.

She raised her hand and gently put it on Zhao Jinghua's face. Seeing Zhao Jinghua's silver hair turn black in an instant, Wan Sutong smiled and said, "Next time if something like this happens, just tell me directly. I don't know much." Then she raised her hand and took off the curtain on Zhao Jinghua's head, and put it into the spiritual sea.

Zhao Jinghua nodded slightly, his eyes full of pampering "Okay"

Wan Sutong raised her hand and took Zhao Jinghua's hand. "In our world, the curtains and veils do not distinguish between men and women, so I don't know, is there still a distinction between men and women?"

Zhao Jinghua shook his head and said helplessly, "It is said that the founding emperor of Zhao State was five feet tall. During a private visit, he wore a veil on his head. He was mistaken for a woman. In a fit of anger, it was decided that women should wear veils and men should wear veils. Since then, the people of Zhao State have believed that those who wear veils are women and those who wear veils are men."

Wan Sutong nodded, not quite understanding, "How much is five feet?"

0533 covered his mouth and laughed secretly, "It's only a little taller than you, the host."

"Hahahahahahaha, so only Zhaoguo is like this?" Wan Sutong covered her stomach and laughed until tears streamed down her face.

Zhao Jinghua nodded slightly and took Wan Sutong back to the West City Academy. Wan Sutong couldn't stop laughing all the way until she entered the dilapidated academy.

Wan Sutong frowned as she looked at the courtyard full of sand. "Tsk, system, do you have any stone bricks that are one meter long and one meter wide? It would be best if they were dark-sided."

0533 searched carefully for a while and then showed Wan Sutong a photo. The gray stone bricks had no patterns and the matte stone surface was smooth and flat. "Is this the kind of courtyard brick?"

Wan Sutong nodded repeatedly after reading it. "How many pieces do you think it will cost?"

Before 0533 could speak, Zhao Jinghua frowned slightly and said, "Thirty-four bricks. If there is no gap, three and a half bricks are needed." After hearing this, 0533 clapped his hands and exclaimed, "Great!"

At this moment, a carriage suddenly stopped behind the two of them, and the next moment, the steward of the Seventh Prince's Mansion came out of the carriage and asked, "Are you the Prime Minister's daughter?"

Wan Sutong heard the voice and turned to see the anxious-looking steward. "Who are you?"

Seeing that it was indeed the steward Wan Sutong, he quickly bowed and said, "I am the steward of the Seventh Prince's Mansion. The Seventh Prince heard that you had returned and specially asked me to come and look for you. I originally intended to go to Lan'an City to look for you. Just now, the coachman said that he saw your back and said that you looked a bit similar. I thought you were in Lan'an City, so I got off the carriage to try my luck. I didn't expect it to be you!"

Wan Sutong nodded calmly and said, "That's why I came here, but I was delayed by something just now."

Upon hearing this, the steward immediately signaled Wan Sutong to get on the carriage. "Please get on the carriage."

Wan Sutong smiled slightly and then took Zhao Jinghua's hand and walked into the carriage. After the two of them sat firmly, the housekeeper hurriedly walked into the carriage and sat beside the driver, "Go back home!"

"Gee!" After the carriage started to move smoothly, the steward turned around and looked at Zhao Jinghua, "Who is the person next to Miss Prime Minister?"

Wan Sutong looked at Zhao Jinghua wearing a mask and immediately thought of how to answer "He is my senior brother"

Zhao Jinghua clasped his hands and lowered his voice and said, "I am Mingye. Thank you for your courtesy."

The steward hurriedly returned the greeting and then looked at Wan Sutong, "So you are Ming Ye, the disciple of the miracle doctor. You should be over a hundred years old, right? I'm so sorry." The steward deliberately emphasized the words "over a hundred years old" and sighed. He turned and looked into the distance, thinking, "An old cucumber painted green and wearing a mask. I'm afraid his face is full of wrinkles. He's over a hundred years old and still wants to eat young grass. He doesn't even care whether the Prime Minister agrees or not. I hope Miss Prime Minister can understand what I said just now."

Wan Sutong frowned and looked puzzled when she heard this, thinking to herself, "Why is there always someone being so weird to you today?"

Zhao Jinghua chuckled and raised his hand to smooth Wan Sutong's frown, then shook his head slightly to indicate that Wan Sutong didn't need to worry.

Soon the carriage arrived at the Seventh Emperor's Palace, and the steward hurriedly ran down the carriage and said, "Your Highness! The Prime Minister's daughter is here."

Zhao Jinghua slowly stood up and stepped down from the carriage, then turned around and let Wan Sutong hold his hand and jumped down from the carriage. He looked up into the mansion and saw Zhao Jingyu walking out with the help of a maid. He looked pale and kept coughing after walking a few steps. Soon his face flushed abnormally. It took a long time for him to stop coughing, and the flush on his face gradually faded away.

Wan Sutong grinned unconsciously, "This disease is comparable to yours before." Zhao Jinghua chuckled and said nothing.

At this time, Zhao Jingyu came over with the help of the maid and the steward, and her voice was hoarse when she spoke, "How did Miss Prime Minister know that I wanted to invite you?"

Wan Sutong shook his head and smiled inscrutablely, "Your Highness, you don't need to know. You just need to take me to see the lady."
