It was also good luck for the three Lice; just when they were at their wits' end, they saw the old beggar stumbling while walking, looking like he was in bad shape. Later, when he hadn't gone out for two days, they thought to come in and check on him.
Who knew they'd find the old beggar unconscious, looking deeply ill.
Shu Yu frowned, "Who was it that looked for you?"
"I-I don't know."
"Then how did he give you money?"
The three Lice said, "That person said, five days later, oh, that's the day after tomorrow. He told us to wait for him at the Yuelai Restaurant in the prefecture, and if the matter was handled, he would give us money."
The day after tomorrow?
Shu Yu nodded; she had asked nearly everything she needed to, so she let Ying Xi watch over the three Lice while she went to the room.
Just as she was about to enter, Meng Yunzheng was about to come out, and the two almost bumped into each other.
Meng Yunzheng quickly steadied her, asking, "How did it go?"
