Rebirth: Ghost Exorciser

Chapter 1210: Dinner at the Jiang Residence

Chapter 1210: Dinner at the Jiang Residence


On the way back to the capital, Chi Shuyan told the boys when she would restock her Taobao shop, but didn’t make any promises.


If they really wanted the things, they could just buy them themselves when the time came. Chi Shuyan wouldn’t do them any favors. When it came to the effects of the good stuff, Chi Shuyan couldn’t be bothered to talk it up.


Quality goods didn’t need advertising.


She wasn’t worried about not being able to sell them.


Jiang Duo was fine. He had already bought a lot of good stuff before. He was used to staying up all night to stalk Master Chi’s online shop. In addition, because of the Nourishment Pills and spirit rice which he had bought from Master Chi’s shop, his grandfather and parents were now in good health, so he wasn’t greedy for other good stuff.


If it wasn’t for this sudden incident, he would still be browsing the online shop for his family. He hadn’t been home for the past few days, and his parents called him every day because of this.


It was a good thing that Master Chi hadn’t had time to restock her online shop lately. It would have been hard for him to snap stuff up, and it would be over for him if his father found out; he probably wouldn’t get any pocket money then.


Truthfully speaking, Jiang Duo was sincerely grateful to Master Chi’s online shop. First of all, Master Chi’s Nourishment Pill directly saved his grandfather. If it wasn’t for the Nourishment Pill, something would have happened to his grandfather long ago.


This wasn’t him cursing his grandfather; it was the truth.


Now, his grandfather would sigh feelingly at home every now and then and say that he was lucky to have met such a benefactor.


Secondly, not only did Master Chi’s online shop change the tense family atmosphere, it also completely changed Jiang Duo’s status in the family.


How much his father disliked him in the past was how good he was to him now.


His parents’ relations.h.i.+p had also become very good.


......


Didn’t that make Master Chi his benefactor? No, she should be considered his entire family’s benefactor. Jiang Duo made up his mind to invite Master Chi to his house for a meal sometime. If Master Chi went to his house, his grandfather and parents would be so happy.


His father would probably be in a good mood, and Jiang Duo would get extra pocket money again.


Thinking this, Jiang Duo looked at his friends beside him. The only pity was that if this hadn’t happened, he might have been able to mobilize this group of people to help him snap up good stuff. Now, however, his friends all knew that the things in Master Chi’s online shop were good stuff, so it was unlikely that he would be able to ‘use’ these guys.


He suddenly missed the time when the boys didn’t believe that Master Chi was an expert at all and even suspected that her online shop was shady.


At that time, he had silently reaped the gains and didn’t have so many compet.i.tors. In the future, it would be much harder to s.n.a.t.c.h up good stuff from Master Chi’s online shop.


The others hadn’t tasted the benefits of what Master Chi sold online. If they did, their intestines would probably turn green with regret.


His seriously ill grandfather didn’t just take a turn for the better after taking the Nourishment Pill; the Nourishment Pill and spirit rice also helped to treat his father’s internal injuries. If any of these things were casually taken out, they would definitely cause a stir.


In any case, it was obvious how his grandfather and father treasured the things from Master Chi’s online shop.


Every time Jiang Duo bought something from Master Chi’s online shop, he would see his grandfather and father carefully put it in the safe which used to house jewelry.


They also checked the safe three times a day.


He really felt that not only was Master Chi superb at catching ghosts, she was also superb at making good stuff.


Although he wasn’t greedy, everyone was selfish. Of course, Jiang Duo wanted to s.n.a.t.c.h up more good stuff for his family. While Jiang Duo was deep in thought, Xiao Ningjin, who was the sharpest and calmest of them all, seemed to have thought of something. Taking advantage of the moment when Master Chi was resting, he quietly asked Jiang Duo, “By the way, Ah Duo, I heard that your grandfather was seriously ill. Did you buy some Nourishment Pills from Master Chi’s online shop for him to take? Is that why he got better?”


In fact, they had long heard of this matter, but they hadn’t believed it at all back then. Now that they knew of Master Chi’s abilities, however, they felt that it made sense.


Xiao Ningjin’s voice was very low, but the others still p.r.i.c.ked up their ears.


Jiang Duo wanted to continue pretending to be ignorant and say that he didn’t know, and continue to silently reap his gains, but his friends more or less knew the truth now. He had also revealed some of the truth in order to convince them before. Even if he deliberately duped them, it wouldn’t be long before they went to Master Chi’s online shop themselves.


If he lied again, he would probably provoke their anger. Maybe his friends would remember that he had cheated them of their Nourishment Pills, and they would settle old and new scores together. Thinking this, Jiang Duo was a little uneasy.


Moreover, he felt that his friends already believed what he had said before. The things in Master Chi’s online shop were all good stuff, and that Nourishment Pill had saved his grandfather’s life. By suddenly asking this now, Ningjin was likely trying to drag details out of him.


If Jiang Duo tried to cover things up, no one would believe him, so he might as well do them a favor. Besides, his real compet.i.tors weren’t his friends, but everyone else who wanted to snap things up from Master Chi’s online shop.


Maybe they could still cooperate!


Thinking this, Jiang Duo no longer hid anything. He talked in detail about how his seriously ill grandfather had immediately improved after taking the Nourishment Pill, and how the Nourishment Pill and spirit rice had healed his father’s old injuries.


Of course, the most shocking thing was that after Jiang Duo’s grandfather started taking the Nourishment Pill, his originally white hair was now half-black, and he looked much younger. His grandfather was no longer as depressed as in the past. He now went to the square every morning to either do Tai Chi or dance with the old ladies. His health was excellent.


Jiang Duo’s father also had less white hair and looked very good. His mother also looked much younger.


Speaking of which, the main reason why Chi Shuyan deliberately limited purchases of the Nourishment Pill back then was that though it was just the most basic and ordinary medicinal pill, it still contained a lot of spiritual energy, and was very good for the bodies of ordinary people.


The spiritual energy in the Nourishment Pill was only inferior to the first few bags of spirit rice which Chi Shuyan had washed; it had a better effect than spirit rice which was only washed once.


An ordinary bottle or two could improve the body to a certain extent, but if one continued taking the Nourishment Pill, becoming younger wasn’t a problem.


Back then, Chi Shuyan had been afraid that this matter would cause too much of a stir, so she deliberately limited purchases so that no one could buy Nourishment Pills all the time. However, she probably didn’t expect Jiang Duo’s luck to be so good. She had limited purchases of the Nourishment Pill several times, but he always got a share.


Grandpa Jiang had been taking the Nourishment Pill, so not only did his hair turn black, he also looked much younger. Chi Shuyan didn’t expect that.


Jiang Duo didn’t hide anything this time and explained the effects of the Nourishment Pill and the spirit rice in detail. Xiao Ningjin, Wei Panyang and the others were moved when they heard this.


Jiang Duo also said that his friends could go to his house to see his grandfather and parents if they didn’t believe him. In any case, he himself could sense the changes in his family members whom he saw daily, let alone other people.


Jiang Duo felt that his grandfather had changed the most. After all, his grandfather took the most Nourishment Pills. Because he was older, the benefits he obtained were greater, and the changes were also greater.


Jiang Duo felt that he wasn’t exaggerating or promoting Master Chi at all. Xiao Ningjin and the others felt that he was going overboard, but they couldn’t help but believe it when they saw Jiang Duo’s expression.


Not to mention, the boys now had a deep understanding of Master Chi’s abilities. What Ah Duo said might really be possible.


Xiao Ningjin was more thoughtful. He suddenly said in a low voice, “Ah Duo, we’ll probably all be free later. After we send Master Chi back, why don’t we go to your house to visit your grandfather and parents?”


Jiang Duo knew what Ningjin was thinking and naturally agreed. However, he still had his own thoughts. His eyes kept s.h.i.+fting to Master Chi, who was resting with her eyes closed. He suddenly wanted Master Chi to go to his house.


But it was late and Master Chi looked a little tired. Jiang Duo didn’t know if he should invite her to his house or not.


An hour later, when Master Chi woke up and opened her eyes, Jiang Duo still couldn’t help but say, “Master Chi, we’ll probably only get back at seven or eight in the evening. Everyone will be going for dinner later. Master Chi, are you coming?”


Without waiting for Chi Shuyan to refuse, Jiang Duo wheedled for the first time in his life and said solicitously, “Come! Come! Master Chi, if you come to my house, my grandfather and my parents will definitely be very happy! It just so happens that no one has eaten yet. Come to my house for dinner before you go back.”


Seeing that Master Chi didn’t speak for a long while, Jiang Duo gritted his teeth and said, “Master Chi, if it wasn’t for you, all of us might have died. Also, you probably recognize me, right? I’m that Jiang Xiaoduo from your online shop. If it wasn’t for you, something might have happened to my grandfather long ago. Master Chi, no matter what, you must come this time. Ningjin, Panyang, Luoying, Ah Hao, don’t you think so?”
