Chapter 384 - 378 Third Bro, Long Time No See



Zhao Chuchu smiled and replied with the question. “What do you think?”

“I don’t know.” After Madam Ma said this, she turned around and hastened back to the house. She looked like she was fleeing in defeat.

When Zhao Baolin and his wife passed away, Madam Ma suspected the cause of their deaths before. However, she didn’t dare to voice out her suspicion. She thought that since Old Man Zhao could have his way with Zhao Baolin, she would surely be able to control Zhao Chuchu as well.

Now that she thought about it, Madam Ma also felt she had overstepped her boundaries and bullied an orphaned young maiden.

Now, she was facing karma!

Fortunately, her son was not like her. Otherwise, she would only be able to sit at his grave each day and mourn his early death.

Zhao Chuchu watched as Madam Ma left and revealed a pensive look.

Afterward, she went to the kitchen and informed Madam Zheng that she was leaving to get the Xie brothers.

Xie Heng was practicing the words that Zhao Chuchu taught him.

She went over to take a look and discovered that he was improving at lightning speed. He had actually picked up the foreign characters reasonably well.

He could write any character that Zhao Chuchu picked at random.

It was also indescribably pleasing to see foreign characters written using a calligraphy brush.

As expected, anything they wrote appeared like art for those with beautiful handwriting.

“When we come back tonight, I will teach you how to pronounce these characters. The Chen clan invited us over for dinner tonight. By the way, we seem to be eating with them very often. Why don’t we bring a few dishes over as well?”

After all, her carry-on space had plenty of food stored away.

Zhao Chuchu’s stomach had been groomed by Xie Heng, so she did not enjoy

the food stored in her carry-on space as much anymore. However, those dishes were not really bad and were considered good in this era.

“Sure,” Xie Heng agreed. After all, his culinary skills weren’t bad. No matter what dishes they brought over, they could just say that he had made them. No one would suspect Zhao Chuchu.

Zhao Chuchu took out some shredded chicken and some twice-cooked pork. These two dishes had ingredients that the Xie clan could produce.

After they had replated the dishes, Xie Heng took out a basket and placed the two dishes inside. He then covered them with a clean cloth and went to the Chen residence with Zhao Chuchu.

As for Xie Jun, they did not need to look for him.

When it was time to eat, he would be drawn over by the smell of food.

Due to being asked by Zhao Chuchu in the evening about the death of Zhao Baolin and his wife, Madam Ma did not leave her room when it was time for dinner. It was because she was afraid to meet Zhao Chuchu’s gaze.

After all, she knew what had transpired back then. However, she had not said anything and had always been bullying Zhao Chuchu all these years.

She initially believed that after this period of time, she no longer feared Zhao Chuchu as much. In reality, her fear of Zhao Chuchu was already deeply rooted in her soul. It would most likely haunt her for the rest of her days.

The topics discussed at the dinner table were either about the crops or the matters of the watermill workshop.

Even though Chen Dashi was exhausted from working at the watermill workshop, he enjoyed every day of it and maintained the place well. Zhao Chuchu listened to the conversations at the table, but her mind was elsewhere.

Outside of the Chen residence, a suspicious person appeared again.

Even though the other party attempted to be stealthy, Zhao Chuchu could tell it was Zhao Baotian.

Zhao Baotian still had not given up. Was he planning on hiding till they returned home before he applied the poison?

After Zhao Baotian found a good hiding spot, he did not move anymore.

It was already freezing at night this time of year.

Zhao Chuchu wanted to scare Zhao Baotian. She was more than happy to let him wait outside in the cold before she acted.

After dinner, she stayed at the Chen residence and did not leave, discussing the business of tofu skins with Old Mrs. Chen and Chen Dashi.

They talked until around midnight.

The later it was, the colder it was outside

Zhao Baotian was already frozen stiff, and shivering. Each time he thought that Zhao Chuchu was about to leave, she stayed longer.

Zhao Baotian was afraid that if he continued to stay outside, he would be frozen to death.

He gritted his teeth and waited for another 15 minutes. When he saw that Zhao Chuchu had no intention of leaving, he had no choice but to leave empty-handed.

Zhao Baotian’s teeth were chattering because he had been standing out in the cold. His body was frozen stiff too.

Not wanting to alert the others of his presence, he could only curse under his breath. He was enraged.

Zhao Chuchu bid farewell to Old Mrs. Chen right after Zhao Baotian left.

“No matter what happens tonight, just ignore it,” Zhao Chuc.hu reminded Old Mrs. Chen before she left.

Old Mrs. Chen had also felt something was off with Zhao Chuchu tonight. However, she did not question her instructions.

After Zhao Chuchu left, Chen Dashi yawned and asked, “Mother, what do you think Chuchu meant by that?”

“How should I know? These are Chuchu’s personal affairs. Just mind your own business and remember what she instructed.”

“Alright. ”

Chen Dashi thought to himself, “I was just simply asking you a question. I wouldn’t dare pry into Chuchu’s affairs.”

Zhao Chuchu and Xie Heng tailed Zhao Baotian.

From the Chen residence to the Zhao residence, they had to pass by a bridge and a path with no houses on either side. The journey did not take long.

Old Mrs. Chen told Zhao Chuchu before that the voice of the father of the original owner of her body was similar to that of Old Man Zhao.

When Zhao Baotian was passing through the uninhabited area, Zhao Chuchu mimicked Old Man Zhao’s voice and called out softly, “Baotian, I’m cold down here. Can you burn me two blankets as an offering?

Zhao Baotian was scared out of his wits when he heard this voice.

Zhao Chuchu took the chance to hit the meridian on his leg, making his body numb.

Zhao Baotian sensed that his leg was suddenly touched by something cold, then he lost control over the lower half of his body.

He was petrified as he glanced at the surroundings with a look of terror. Even his voice changed as he said, “Who is pranking me? Show your face now before I get angry!’

“Third Bro, did you forget about me?” Zhao Chuchu gently sighed and continued, “I’m cold down here. Can you come and keep me company?

Xie Heng assisted Zhao Chuchu by fumbling with the dry grass with his hands. Rustling sounds could be heard.

To Zhao Baotian, the rustling sounded like someone from the underworld coming after him.

He wanted to run away, but he couldn’t move.

“Third Bro, come and keep me company, will you? “Third Bro, it’s really cold down here.”

“Third Bro, I miss my daughter. Can we switch places?

“Third Bro…”

The ghostly calls continued.

“Help!” Zhao Baotian could no longer withstand the stress and called out for help. To his dismay, he actually could not make a sound!

At the same time, Zhao Chuchu took out a black trench coat from her carry-on space and put it over Xie Heng’s head. She gestured to him to stand in front of Zhao Baotian.

Xie Heng was speechless.

Even after two lifetimes, he had never attempted dressing up as a ghost to frighten others before.

However, what choice did he have?

Zhao Chuchu was his beloved darling. He would oblige whatever she asked of him.

He was even ready to turn Zhao Baotian into a ghost if that would please her.

Meanwhile, Zhao Baotian was terrified to the point of wetting his own pants.

He was overwhelmed by fear.

He recalled the begrudging gaze of Zhao Baotian when the latter died. He also thought of Zhao Chuchu’s dream, where her parents told her that they had died unjustly.

Could it be that because he planned to kill Zhao Changrong, Zhao Baolin had come back to seek revenge?

Zhao Baotian had lost the ability to think straight due to fear.

An even scarier scene appeared right after.

He saw a man, covered from head to toe, suddenly popping out in front of him. It might be a ghost because the other party was floating in midair.

“Third Bro, long time no see!”
