My God of Wealth is a Short-lived Ghost

At this time, Jiang Hanzhong rushed back to the government office. He walked quickly to the desk and sat down. He just heard the constable say that Jia Fugui killed people for money. If Xiao Liuzi's mother hadn't stopped eating the food, she would have died! At this moment, he was ferocious and full of anger. He picked up the gavel and slammed the desk. "You are so good, Jia Fugui! You came up with such a vicious method for money! What! If Xiao Liuzi's mother ate all the three buckets of rice, you still plan to pretend to be kind and give him money to hold a funeral!"

Jia Fugui was in tears at this time and regretted it very much. He kept kowtowing and said with a tone full of regret, "Master! Please forgive me! I was blinded by lard and thought of poisoning the food. The poison is not fatal and can be cured by taking three doses of medicine! Please forgive me!"

Jiang Hanzhong got even angrier after hearing this. "Do you know that the silver you used for the three prescriptions is Xiao Liuzi's twelve-month salary? It's enough for an ordinary family to use for six years! Just for this, you should be punished with eighty strokes of the cane!"

"Master, I am almost fifty years old, how can I bear eighty lashes of the cane?"

Jiang Hanzhong sneered, "You sent your men to disrupt Wanfulou's business and smashed the tables, chairs, and dishes in the building! I went to Wanfulou to check it out myself, and the ground was full of broken tables, chairs, and dishes. It was a horrible sight!" Jiang Hanzhong sighed heavily after he finished speaking, and gritted his teeth when he spoke again, "Jia Fugui, what's the use of regretting now! Do you know who owns the title deed to Wanfulou? She is the daughter of the right prime minister! And she is the apprentice of Emperor Jingren! You don't even need to use your pig head to think about who dares to use the word Wan as a signboard! Did your head get kicked by a donkey!" Jia Fugui couldn't stop shaking all over after hearing this, and at this time he was crying out to the sky and the earth for help, but no one would help!

At this time, Wan Sutong had already brought Gu Ming back to the Wan Mansion. "Daddy and Mommy! Come out and see who your daughter has brought back." Wan Yanzhong, who was in the study, heard Wan Sutong's call and quickly put down his brush. Su Qinghui also put down her teacup, and then the two of them walked out of the study one after the other.

Su Qinghui walked forward and bowed slightly but did not speak. When Wan Yanzhong saw Gu Ming, he froze in his tracks. Then he tilted his head and whispered, "Madam, why do I feel that this old man looks familiar?" As soon as he finished speaking, Wan Yanzhong immediately remembered who the person in front of him was, "Doctor Gu!"

Gu Ming nodded slightly and said, "It's me, Prime Minister Wan, long time no see."

Wan Yanzhong quickly stepped forward and grasped Gu Ming's hand. "Thanks to you for saving my daughter back then. I heard that you lived in seclusion in the mountains. I never thought I would see you today."

Gu Ming laughed when he heard this. "In my dream, an immortal told me that the owner of a restaurant in Kyoto was willing to learn medicine from me. Now I have found him."

Wan Yanzhong nodded and released Gu Ming's hand. "I see. I wonder why you are here?"

Su Qinghui raised her hand and patted the back of Wan Yanzhong's head, then smiled at Gu Ming and said, "Doctor Gu, please follow me and sit down." Gu Ming nodded and followed Su Qinghui to the main hall. It was not until Gu Ming was invited to sit in the main seat that Wan Yanzhong suddenly realized.

At this time, Su Qinghui poured Gu Ming a cup of hot tea and said slowly, "My daughter has had this wish since she was a child, but it has never been realized. Now it has finally come true."

Gu Ming nodded slightly after hearing this. "Tongtong has also told me, but I want to take Tongtong with me. I wonder if you two can rest assured that Tongtong will leave Kyoto with me?" After saying this, Wan Sutong kept blinking her big eyes and looked at Wan Yanzhong and Su Qinghui.

Wan Yanzhong and Su Qinghui looked at their daughter's expectant look. The couple looked at each other, and then nodded with hesitation and reluctance in their eyes. "If my daughter is naughty when she is with you in the future, I hope you will forgive her." Wan Yanzhong sighed, raised his hand, held Su Qinghui's hand, and then patted the back of her hand. "Tongtong is not a child anymore, it's time to let her go out and explore."

Su Qinghui shook her head after hearing this and said, "But what if Tongtong is in danger?"

Gu Ming smiled and comforted her, "Don't worry, Madam Prime Minister. Tongtong is an outstanding person in the martial arts world. Besides, I am here. I will stay here to wait for someone who is destined to be with me, so that I can inherit my skills and save more people."

Wan Sutong was stunned when she heard this. "Didn't you teach Emperor Hongyu medical skills?"

When Zhao Hongyu was mentioned, Gu Ming sighed heavily and took a sip of tea from the teacup. "Your senior brother had a miserable life. He became ill due to overwork and later became a little forgetful. He almost didn't recognize me, let alone the inheritance!" At this point, Gu Ming put the teacup on the table beside him angrily. "He was my most disappointing disciple. He was a boy until his death. Look, your second senior brother is also an emperor! His great-great-grandson is already thirty years old!"

After hearing this, Wan Yanzhong and Su Qinghui were stunned. Wan Yanzhong frowned and said, "Ah? You mean Emperor Hongyu never consummated his marriage with Empress Xianzhuang?" Gu Ming closed his eyes and sighed without saying anything else.

Wan Sutong opened her mouth in shock. "System, my master seems to have accidentally revealed a big secret. Emperor Hongyu is not really impotent, is he?"

0533 Laughed, "This system thought Zhao Hongyu was impotent from the beginning. Otherwise, as an ancient emperor, how could he not have many concubines and be willing to raise other people's sons?"

At this time, Rowling's voice came from the courtyard. "Miss! Miss!" She sounded very excited, as if she had great news.

Wan Sutong heard the shout and hurried to the courtyard, only to see Luo Lin running towards her in two steps at a time. "Miss! Look what this is?" While speaking, Luo Lin had already come to Wan Sutong. She handed a signed guarantee letter and a purple purse to Wan Sutong. "Jia Fugui committed murder for money and was beaten with a hundred boards. He will pay ten taels of silver to Xiao Liuzi, and the remaining twenty-eight taels will be paid to us. All the things used in his restaurant will belong to us. He said in person that there are one thousand taels of silver in the cellar."

After hearing this, Wan Sutong immediately hugged Luo Lin with both hands, and then kissed Luo Lin on the left cheek, "Sister Luo, I love you so much." Feeling Wan Sutong's soft lips kissing her cheek, coupled with what Wan Sutong said, Luo Lin's cheeks instantly became hot and she stuttered a little, "This, this, this... is what a servant should do."

Wan Sutong burst out laughing, then loosened her arms around Luo Lin and put the purse back into her spiritual sea. Then she transformed into a gray purse and hung it around Luo Lin's waist. "Keep this thirty-five taels. It's for subsidizing the restaurant when business is bad." After that, she produced a five-hundred-tael silver note. "This is for you, Sister Luo. I don't know how long I can be back. From now on, Sister Luo will have to help me run the restaurant."

Luo Lin was about to take it, but when she saw that it was a silver note for five hundred taels, she froze in her tracks. "I can't take it! It's too much! This is five hundred taels!"

Wan Sutong put the banknote in Luo Lin's hand and said, "Sister Luo, please keep it. I can't let you help me run the restaurant for nothing. I will feel so guilty if you don't get anything when I come back." Then she whispered in Luo Lin's ear, "I'll give you the one thousand taels as well."

Luo Lin was horrified after hearing this, "How can this be possible!" Su Qinghui walked over with a chuckle, "Luo Lin, keep it, this is also a token of Tongtong's love."

Luo Lin hurriedly shook her head and said anxiously, "But the lady also wants to give me the 1,000 taels of silver in the cellar."

At this time, Gu Ming nodded with satisfaction and looked at Wan Yanzhong beside him. "I saw at a glance that Tongtong is a calm and kind-hearted child. It would be great for her to learn medicine."
