A Girl and Her Best Friends Time Travel to Ancient Times

Yu Yifan saw that he couldn't move Wu Ying, so he immediately turned to Su Mo and said, "Sister Su Mo, you are quite capable, why don't you take me as your disciple! I will definitely repay you well in the future!"

"I..." Su Mo was stunned for a moment.

Take a disciple? It seems like an interesting thing to do! With a disciple, wouldn't she have someone to run errands for her? She could also experience what it's like to be a master!

Su Mo was just about to agree, when Wu Ying grabbed her hand, "I forbid it!"

"Ah? Why? Look how sincere he is, kneeling and kowtowing!" Su Mo said.

"I said no, so no!" Wu Ying said solemnly.

Su Mo looked at him dissatisfied, "Wu Ying, even though you're my boyfriend, isn't your control a bit too wide? Even who I take as a disciple is under your jurisdiction?"

"......"

Wu Ying let go of her hand angrily and looked at Yu Yifan, "You want to be my disciple, right? Then I'll take you in!"

Su Mo: "......"

Blatantly snatching someone!

Yu Yifan kowtowed to Wu Ying happily, "Thank you, Master!"

Then he turned around and kowtowed to Su Mo, "Thank you, Master's wife!"

Su Mo: "......"

Hearing Yu Yifan call Su Mo his master's wife, Wu Ying really couldn't help but smile.

The three onlookers also couldn't help but laugh into their hands.

This Yu Yifan really has some insight!

......

Next, Yu Yifan took them to Bei Street in Lan City.

The group surveyed the area in the morning and took a liking to one shop.

The shop was originally a tea house, but because there were quite a few tea houses around here, the competition was fierce and business wasn't good.

It had two floors total. The first floor was the hall and the second floor had private rooms.

There was a small stage in the hall where they could occasionally watch operas and storytelling.

They all felt the shop was pretty good, so they quickly agreed on a price with the boss and signed a contract, officially leasing the premises.

Seeing that they were so decisive, the boss treated them to lunch since it was already noon.

After the meal, the group went back to take another look at the tea house.

"I didn't expect we'd rent the premises so quickly. I thought we'd have to look for a long time!" Xia Miaomiao said happily.

"We'll have to redecorate the place. Miaomiao, go back and draw up plans today. It's best if we can open for business within five days," Sang Li said.

"Sister Li, just order us straight if you need anything!" Su Mo said.

Sang Li smiled. "Don't worry, I definitely won't stand on ceremony. I'll leave the tasks of buying things to you and Wu Ying when the time comes."

"No problem!" Su Mo laughed.

They immediately started discussing plans to decorate the tea house.

They also changed the name to Four Beauties Pavilion.

The tackier the name, the better the business!

That night, Xia Miaomiao and Sang Li made a list of supplies that were needed.

"Some things can be bought readily made while you and Wu Ying can go buy them tomorrow. Some things need to be customized so Miaomiao and I will go place orders. Xiaohan can stay here and take care of the interior design."

"Ok."

"What about me?" Yu Yifan asked earnestly while hugging Xiao Hei. "I can help too!"

Sang Li looked at him, "Weren't you injured in the shoulder? Just stay home and take care of Xiao Hei."

"It's just a small injury, it won't get in the way! I'll go with my Master and Master's Wife. I know Lan City's vendors well and where to get supplies cheap. Besides..."

Yu Yifan looked at Su Mo and Wu Ying. "Master and Master's Wife clearly don't know how to haggle. You'll surely suffer losses..."

Su Mo and Wu Ying: "......"

Sang Li thought about it. Su Mo did indeed not know how to bargain. As for Wu Ying...needless to say, he definitely wouldn't know either.

"Alright, go with them then." Sang Li said.

And so responsibilities were divided clearly.

Early next morning, Wu Ying called Su Mo up as usual to practice lightness skill.

Yu Yifan also got up to practice martial arts with them.

It was only after breakfast that the group headed out again.

Sang Li and Xia Miaomiao brought the drawings to a carpenter to place orders for mahjong tables, card game tables, etc.

The two had just finished communicating specifications with the boss and came out, already feeling parched.

"Sister Li, let's go get some tea. I'm really thirsty," Xia Miaomiao said, fanning herself with her hand.

Summer was approaching and the weather here was sweltering already. The two were wearing ancient garments and felt like they were in a steam room.

"Alright, let's go to a roadside stand for some tea."

The two arrived at a roadside tea stand nearby and ordered a pot of tea.

These types of roadside tea stands were different from tea houses.

They were located in areas with high commercial activity and existed mainly to quench the thirst of workers here, so they weren't very high-end.

Sang Li had just drank a few mouthfuls of tea when she saw a few burly men dragging a man in red clothes towards them from not too far away.

Sang Li frowned slightly, feeling that the man seemed very familiar.

Her heart sank as she looked towards the red-clothed man.

It was that youth called Gu Zhi from Fu Hua Building!

"Disgusting! Such inauspiciousness! What the hell is this? He actually contracted a terrible disease and still hasn't recovered after four or five days. He even infected Qingfeng. I think you're just asking to die!"

The thug kicked Gu Zhi down with one foot! 𝐟𝗿ee𝘄𝗲𝗯𝐧o𝘃el.𝐜o𝚖

Gu Zhi's hands were tied behind his back. He fell to the ground, the skin on his wrists torn and bloodied from being dragged.

"Since you've become like a ghost, we can only sell you to the arena!"

The thug proceeded to drag Gu Zhi by the rope. Gu Zhi was dragged painfully on the ground, looking extremely miserable.

Seeing this, a surge of anger rose in Sang Li's heart. She immediately stood up and strode towards them.

"Sister Li!" Xia Miaomiao didn't quite understand but still hurried to catch up.

"Stop!"

Sang Li's cold voice rang out. The few thugs looked towards her.

"Oh, it's this young lady again?" One of them had seen her at Fu Hua Building before.

Hearing Sang Li's voice, Gu Zhi also lifted his head. Seeing Sang Li gave him a glimmer of hope.

"What are you doing? Why are you treating him like this?!" Sang Li said angrily.

"Miss, aren't you prying too much into our affairs? This kid contracted a terrible disease and broke out in red rashes all over his body. He still hasn't recovered after many days and has already infected others. We can't keep him at Fu Hua Building anymore!"

Sang Li looked at Gu Zhi. His face was indeed covered in frightening red blotches.

She knew it was due to the medicine she had previously given him, but it wasn't contagious.

"Where are you going to bring him?" Sang Li asked solemnly.

"We spent money buying him! Of course we can't take a loss. We're going to sell him to the arena!"

Sang Li's eyes darkened before that trace of pity rose in her heart again, lingering and hard to dispel.

If she watched as Gu Zhi was sold to the arena today, she would definitely feel guilty!

Sang Li hesitated briefly before saying, "How much? I'll buy him from you!"

The thugs were surprised. "Miss, are you sure? With the way he looks half-man, half-ghost now, you like that?"

"Stop wasting words. Just name your price!"

Gu Zhi stared unwaveringly at Sang Li, never expecting that she would buy him.
