Chapter 156: I’ll Wash For Him
“Miss Lu, what did you prepare? Why does it smell so good?”
Smelling the fragrance, Shi Yi could not help but poke his head into the kitchen to ask.
Lu Sheng served the egg fried rice to Lu Jiang and Lu Xin before smiling. “This is crab roe egg fried rice. There’s still a lot left. Young Master Shi, would you like a bowl?”
“No.”
Shi Yi shook his head. “I ate at the Chu Mansion before coming over.”
He just felt that it was very fragrant, and his gluttony lured him over.
Lu Sheng asked Chu Sihan and Yun Ting if they wanted to try it. Both of them shook their heads and rejected her.
Yun Ting smiled lightly and said, “Miss Lu, go ahead and eat. We’ll just drink some tea to quench our thirst.”
Since they didn’t want to eat, Lu Sheng did not force them either. She returned to the kitchen to have dinner with the two children.
During dinner, Lu Sheng boiled water for the bath. After dinner, the water was just done.
Lu Sheng prepared the clothes for the two children and was about to bathe them when Chu Sihan suddenly stood up and walked over.
“What’s wrong, Lord?”
Lu Sheng looked at him suspiciously.
Chu Sihan coughed lightly and pointed at Lu Jiang. “I’ll wash him.”
“Huh?”
Lu Sheng looked at Lu Jiang, then back at him. She blinked and looked confused.
Chu Sihan explained awkwardly, “I said, I’ll wash him and you can wash Xiao Xin.”
“Oh, sure.”
Lu Sheng passed Lu Jiang’s clothes to him and asked worriedly, “Lord, have you bathed a child before?”
“Yes.”
When his brother, Chu Siyun, was still around, he was the one who bathed him.
Lu Sheng’s eyebrow raised in surprise. Then, she pursed her lips and smiled.
She asked Lu Jiang, “Ah Jiang, can this brother bathe you?”
Lu Jiang glanced at Chu Sihan and nodded nervously.
“Then, follow Brother into the house to wash up.”
After speaking, Lu Sheng brought Lu Xin to her room to wash up.
When she finished washing Lu Xin and came out, Chu Sihan and Lu Jiang also came out from next door.
When Shi Yi and Yun Ting saw this scene in the room, they smiled meaningfully.
They did not expect the cold Chu Sihan to take care of a child’s bath.
No one would believe them if word of this got out.
“Wait for Big Brother to come back at home. Second Sister still has some matters to attend to and will go out with these three brothers.”
The two children nodded obediently and even sent the four of them to the door.
The three of them rode the carriage and reached the shore of Qingshui River.
Lu Sheng scanned her surroundings and frowned.
It looked alright in the day, but there was a lot of Yin energy at night.
She walked along the riverbank and searched for the soul.
Chu Sihan strode forward and followed her silently, holding his lantern.
Holding the lantern, Shi Yi carefully followed Yun Ting.
He accidentally stepped on a pit and shuddered in fear.
Yun Ting glanced at him speechlessly. “You’re a man. How can you be so easily shocked? You can’t even compare to Miss Lu in terms of boldness.”
“How can it be the same?”
Shi Yi bent down and said softly, “Miss Lu is in this line of work. Of course she has guts.”
Why would people catching ghosts be afraid of ghosts? Unless they were swindlers.
Yun Ting rolled his eyes at him and decided to ignore him for now.
Lu Sheng walked and stopped, but her frown became tighter.
“What’s wrong?”
Chu Sihan asked softly.
“General Ji’s soul should have already left Qingshui River.”
After all, it had been five years and he only had one soul.
Be it a human or a ghost, they would face other problems if they lacked a soul.
For example, if a person lacked a soul, there would be some problems with their intelligence or other aspects.
Ghosts were similar. Without a soul, its ghostly aura would fade and its ancestors would not recognize it. It would even be mocked and bullied by the wild ghosts outside.
