Lord Chu’s Wife is Wild

Chapter 144: It Doesn’t Matter If There’s One More

“A cultivator with strong powers?”

Yun Ting frowned. He did not know anyone like her. Where could he find this someone?

“Actually, you don’t have to be troubled.” Lu Sheng smiled and said, “You can find my master for help.”

Yun Ting was elated. “Miss Lu, you’re saying that the Third Prince has returned to the capital?”

Lu Sheng nodded. “If I’m not wrong, he set off last night.”

“If this soul cannot meet the other souls, what will the consequences be?” Chu Sihan asked curiously.

“Nothing much. It’s just that General Ji will remain a wandering ghost without a soul. That soul will automatically dissipate after a few decades.”

After speaking, Lu Sheng drank a sip of tea and continued, “Do the three of you have other matters?”

“When should I collect that soul?” Yun Ting asked.

Lu Sheng said, “I still have some matters to attend to tonight. Why don’t we go tomorrow night?”

She still had to summon her soul tonight and did not have time to find that soul.

Moreover, it had been five years. She did not know if that soul was still there.

If it was no longer around, it would take some effort to find it.

Yun Ting nodded. “Then, we’ll go back and wait. We’ll come and find Miss Lu again tomorrow night.”

“What’s this?”

Shi Yi pointed at the crayfish shell and asked.

Lu Sheng followed his gaze and saw a pile of crayfish shells in the bamboo basket she used to collect garbage.

Lu Zhou must have thrown them in last night.

“That’s a crayfish shell.”

“Blind and deaf?” Shi Yi frowned. “What’s that?”

Why did it have such a strange name? Why had he never heard of it before?

Chu Sihan and Yun Ting were also very curious.

Lu Sheng smiled and said, “It’s a type of freshwater prawn.”

“Oh, so they’re called Small Deaf Prawns!”

Shi Yi was suddenly enlightened. He had thought it was referring to something blind and deaf.

“Do we have this good luck to try it?” he asked with a smile.

Lu Sheng shrugged and said regretfully, “I’m afraid we have to wait till next year.”

She had gone to take a look this morning. The pond was already covered with a thin layer of ice, and the crayfish had probably gone back to their respective holes to hibernate.

If Lu Zhou had arrived only today, he probably would not have the chance to eat them as well.

Shi Yi said regretfully, “Then we’ll wait till next year.”

“What’s that?” Chu Sihan asked, pointing at a potato.

Lu Sheng explained, “Those are potatoes. If the three of you want to eat them, I can make some for you to try. Since we haven’t eaten lunch yet, we can go back after eating together.”

Shi Yi’s eyes lit up. “Is that possible?”

Lu Sheng smiled and nodded. “Of course!”

Shi Yi chuckled. “Thank you, Miss Lu!”

Chu Sihan glanced at him and did not speak.

“Take a seat. I’ll go and buy some things.”

Lu Sheng stood up and prepared to go to the village to buy some meat and vegetables.

Chu Sihan had treated her to so many meals. She should reciprocate his kindness.

Chu Sihan stood up. “I’ll go with you.”

Lu Sheng smiled and nodded. “Okay!”

There were a lot of rumors about her anyway. It did not matter if there was one more.

She could ask Chu Sihan about the jade hairpin.

Shi Yi and Yun Ting were sensible people. From the moment Chu Sihan suggested traveling together, they sat obediently and did not say anything.

The weather had been very cold recently. Even though the sun was shining brightly, the cold air was still very strong.

Lu Sheng wrapped her cloak tightly around herself. When she was some distance away from the house, she asked, “I saw the jade hairpin that Lord gave me. It’s beautiful.”

Chu Sihan glanced sideways at her fair-skinned face and replied softly, “As long as you like it!”

“I like it very much. Thank you, Lord!”

Lu Sheng smiled and thanked him. She lowered her head and stepped on the dead leaves on the path. Pretending to be innocent, she said, “Lord, where did you buy that hairpin from? I have a cousin who’s getting married. I want to buy one for her as her dowry too.”
