(I offer it with both hands, please accept it ~)
Yi Xiaodong put on his clothes, his heart as dead as a ghost. Originally, he was going to beat Hou San up, but now, he didn't even have the strength to curse, let alone beat him up.
"Master," Hou San carefully explained,"I saw that you were too tired and just wanted to make you comfortable and relax."”Seeing Yi Xiaodong's gloomy head and silence, the astute Hou San knew that he could not continue to dwell on this matter. He changed the topic and said," The matter that Old Master instructed Hou San to do yesterday, Hou San has already done it. Old Master Li has agreed to transfer the Li Residence. As for the price, it's three hundred taels."”
As expected, when he heard Hou San say that he had already settled the deal with the Li Residence, Yi Xiaodong suddenly felt more energetic and spoke more energetically.
" Hmph," Yi Xiaodong snorted coldly." At least you have some ability, kid. Otherwise, I'll make you pack up and leave right now."”
After seeing Yi Xiaodong's complexion turn from gloomy to sunny, Hou San, who thought that he would be blessed after surviving a great disaster, quickly used his special skill and said," Originally, that Master Li wanted seven hundred taels. He wouldn't do it if it was a penny less. I specifically picked his weakness. In the end, I took it for three hundred taels. Master, look."”As he spoke, Hou San took out a piece of paper as if he was performing magic." I have already drafted the agreement with Master Li. As long as you pay the silver, the Li Residence will be surnamed Yi from now on.”
Yi Xiaodong took the agreement from Hou San's hands and nodded as he read it. To be honest, Hou San's ability to do things was not bad. It was just that sometimes he could not take his mouth.
"You did well. Originally, Old Master should have rewarded you heavily, but you just ruined Old Master's innocence. The merits and demerits offset each other, so there's no reward or punishment.”After saying that, he pointed to the three words on the table and said," This is the masterpiece that I, the master, put in my heart and soul last night. Later, find someone to frame it and hang it on the Prosperous Casino. Remember, no matter who it is, as long as you can answer it, you will be rewarded with 50 silver."”After saying that, he waved his hand to signal for Hou San to leave quickly. Yi Xiaodong did not want to hear any more words of comfort and satisfaction from Old Master Bao.
After brushing his teeth, washing his face, and eating the fragrant buns, Yi Xiaodong began to think about his schedule for the day. Liu Xian Er and Hou San had already taken care of the lottery. The most important thing now was to meet Uncle Lin first. It wouldn't be too late to talk about buying the Li Residence later. Well, when I'm done, I'll go to the prison to see my concubine. I wonder if she misses me!
Before he left, Yi Xiaodong went to the bank to exchange the copper coins and silver coins he had earned yesterday into silver notes. He felt bad when he saw the big bag of money turn into four pieces of paper.
After asking around, Yi Xiaodong roughly knew the exact location of the Lin Residence. However, as he walked, he felt that something was wrong.
Eh, this road is so familiar, as if I've been here in a dream.
Gosh, isn't this the Li Residence? No wonder he felt so familiar. It turned out that the Li Residence and the Lin Residence lived on the same street.
After passing through the Li Mansion, the two large signboards of the Lin Mansion greeted his eyes.
Heh, what a coincidence. He didn't expect the Li and Lin residences to be neighbors. That's good. After I'm done, I'll go straight to the Li residence. I don't have to run around and ask people.
Since he was asking for help, Yi Xiaodong did not come empty-handed. Considering that the other party was older, Yi Xiaodong bought some tea leaves and crispy pastries.
Seeing that the door was open, Yi Xiaodong walked in and shouted," Is anyone home?”Seeing that no one answered, Yi Xiaodong took the opportunity to size up the Lin Manor.
The courtyard was very big. It was obvious that only people with status could afford to live in it. There was nothing else in the courtyard, but there were many flowers and plants. The maintenance was also very good. The owner must be a person who loved flowers and understood flowers.
"Who are you looking for?"
Just as Yi Xiaodong was lost in his thoughts, the sweet voice of a woman came from behind him.
Her voice was not bad, but she wondered what she looked like. Yi Xiaodong turned around.
What the hell, why was it another peerless beauty!
If Liu Xian Er was said to be a beauty that could sink the fish and sink the geese, and Ma Qing Qing was a beauty that could shut the moon and shame the flowers, then this person in front of him could be described as a beauty that could topple a country.
Her beautiful face, graceful figure, and pleasant voice were simply perfect.
Seeing that the person just stood there and didn't speak, the beauty had to ask out of courtesy," Young Master, who are you looking for?”
" Ah, oh, I'm looking for Uncle Lin," Yi Xiaodong replied.
"Grandfather is practicing calligraphy in the study. Please wait a moment, Young Master.”After saying that, he bowed and left.
Hearing this beauty address Lin Fugui as grandfather, Yi Xiaodong could guess that she was Lin Bufan's daughter, Lin Shishi, even without the beauty introducing herself. Hehe, not only is she beautiful, but she's also polite. It's really rare!
After a while, an old man with a ruddy face and high spirits came over. Seeing that Yi Xiaodong was fully focused on admiring his masterpiece, the old man laughed and said in a loud voice," Haha! I wonder if my flowers and plants are worthy of your attention!”
Yi Xiaodong turned his head again. When he saw who it was, he revealed a harmless smile and replied," Uncle Lin is too humble. Although I'm not an expert, I know that these flowers and plants are extremely precious." It was their honor to be taken care of by Uncle Lin.”
Lin Fugui's smile grew wider when he heard Yi Xiaodong's words. It was rare to meet someone who knew flowers. Just as he was about to have a good spar, Lin Shishi came over with tea.
"Come, come, little brother, let's sit down and talk slowly.”Lin Fugui called out.
"This is my first visit. Please accept this small gift.”Yi Xiaodong said as he placed the gift on the stone table.
Unexpectedly, Lin Fugui, who was still smiling, suddenly looked gloomy. He snorted coldly and said," I have something to do. I'm sorry I can't accompany you. Shishi, send the guest out!"”
Yi Xiaodong was dumbfounded. Weren't they chatting nicely just now? Why did he suddenly turn hostile?
It was said that a woman's heart was a needle in the sea. Why did this old man have a woman's heart?
No, he turned hostile when he saw me giving him a gift. In that case, he should be worried that accepting the gift would affect his son's career, so he turned hostile. It seemed that Lin Bufan was a good official.
After figuring this out, Yi Xiaodong quickly explained," Uncle Lin, these gifts are just pastries. They're for you to taste. They're not valuable. If they hurt Uncle Lin's eyes, I'll throw them out."”
" Pfft!" Lin Shishi could not help but burst out laughing.
(To be honest, I originally wanted to make Lin Shishi's character a little fiercer and specifically go against Yi Xiaodong. However, thinking about her identity and status, I had no choice but to give up. I'll set it up when the next female lead appears!) Today's third update is complete, please come early tomorrow for 3Q)
