He didn't expect Feng Baobao to agree so readily. This was out of Lin Fan's expectations.
However, she then revealed a brilliant smile and said,"Okay, then we'll buy a new house tomorrow. This house is no longer livable!”
As he said that, Lin Fan pointed at the thatched cottage behind him that was already in tatters and had been destroyed by the wild boar.
"Yes!"
Feng Baobao nodded and didn't say anything else.
Then, he walked back to the bonfire.
He hugged his legs and rested his head on his knees. No one knew what he was thinking.
Meanwhile, Lin Fan was lying on the other side of the fire.
She slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep.
......
Early in the morning, the Ren Residence, as the largest family in Ren Town, could be said to be quite lively.
The servants woke up early and began to clean the courtyard. Red silk and lanterns were hung everywhere.
It was as festive as the New Year.
Everyone knew that the eldest daughter of the Ren family, Ren Tingting, who lived in the provincial capital, was coming back today.
"Butler Liu, it's getting late. Go to the station to pick Tingting up!”
In the main hall of the Ren residence, the head of the Ren family was tidying up his Tang suit.
He looked at himself in the mirror with his shiny hair and nodded in satisfaction. He then instructed the middle-aged man beside him.
"Yes, Master. I'll go and personally fetch Eldest Miss back now!”
Butler Liu smiled and nodded in agreement, his face full of humility.
"Mmm, Tingting, that fellow, she didn't even tell me that she came back early. If it wasn't for Second Uncle's call yesterday, I wouldn't have known that this girl was back!”
Ren Fa stroked the beard on his chin and muttered unhappily.
However, Butler Liu could see that although Ren Fa pretended to be angry, there was still a happy look in his eyes.
After all, which father wouldn't like his daughter by his side?
"Master, didn't Eldest Miss want to give you a surprise? It's understandable!"
"Surprise my ass. What if something happens on the way? Who knew what would happen in this chaotic era!”
Hearing Butler Liu's explanation, Ren Fa shook his head helplessly and turned around.
"In a while, I'm going to the western restaurant with Ninth Uncle to discuss the matter of moving the old master's grave. After I pick Tingting up, let her go home first.”
"By the way, tell Aunt Wu to prepare some food for Tingting in advance. She likes osmanthus cakes and mung bean cakes.”
"Haha, don't worry, Old Master. Aunt Wu prepared these things early in the morning and was waiting for Young Miss to come back!”
"Mm, very good! Very good!"
Ren Fa nodded in satisfaction, then looked at the pocket watch in his hand and continued,"
"Alright, go ahead. The train should be arriving soon!”
"Alright, Master, I'll go now!”
Butler Liu agreed and turned to leave the hall.
She walked quickly and jogged out of the Ren residence.
"Let's go to the station!"
At the door, there were already servants waiting for Butler Liu to go to the station.
Seeing the other party's instructions, the servant hurriedly stood up and helped Butler Liu into the carriage.
"Butler Liu, Butler Liu!"
However, just as Butler Liu was about to get into the carriage.
At the intersection not far behind him, a young man called Butler Liu's name cautiously.
He did not dare to speak too loudly, as if he was afraid that others would hear him.
"Hmm?"
When he turned around and saw the young man, the butler couldn't help but frown.
However, he then walked over to the other party with a displeased expression and said with a dark expression,
"Why are you here? Did something happen to that house again?"
"Yes, Butler Liu!"
Hearing this, the young man hurriedly nodded and said with a fearful expression,
"This morning, I found out that Uncle Zhang, the gardener, was also dead. He died a tragic death! He was hanged in the courtyard!"
"After I found out, I quickly got someone to send his body to the mass grave in the suburbs and bury it. No one else found it!”
After saying that, the young man moved closer to Butler Liu's ear and whispered,"Butler Liu, why don't we get Ninth Uncle to deal with it? Otherwise, no one would dare to continue living in the house!”
"Bastard, if we get Ninth Uncle to deal with this matter, won't we be able to hide the matter of the residence?”
Hearing the young man's words, Butler Liu immediately berated him.
He had used the money from the Ren family's expenses to buy this house for himself over the years.
If Ninth Uncle knew about the haunted house, it was very likely that Old Master Ren would also know about it.
How could Ren Fa, who was so shrewd, not see through the background and tricks of this courtyard?
If he found out that she had secretly moved so much money from the account, she would probably lose her life and leave the Ren residence.
After all, Ren Fa was like a local tyrant in the entire Ren Family Town.
Even the mayor had to be polite in front of him and did not dare to neglect him.
Butler Liu believed that no one would care if Ren Fa punished him according to the family law.
Seeing Butler Liu reprimand him angrily, the young man was a little afraid. He shrank his neck and said,
"Then... Then what should he do? Now we don't dare to stay in the house anymore! I'm scared too!"
"F * ck, trash, what use do I have for trash like you!”
Butler Liu raised his hand and slapped the young man heavily. Then, he glared at the young man and ordered in a low voice,
"Fortunately, not many people know the truth about the house. Later, find someone who doesn't know the truth and sell the house. When the time comes, I'll give you 10% of the profit!”
"Sell? Sold?"
The young man was a little surprised that Butler Liu would take the initiative to sell the house.
"Nonsense, I can't live here, why should I keep it?”
"I'll give you three days. If you can't sell the house, I'll break one of your legs!”
After saying that, Butler Liu no longer paid attention to the young man in front of him. He turned around and returned to the carriage, driving to the station.
"Three days…Three days…How can we sell this!"
The young man helplessly covered his cheek that was slapped by Butler Liu and muttered in a low voice.
Back then, Butler Liu had spent a lot of money to buy this house and decorate it. It could be said to be very luxurious.
The young man understood Butler Liu's character. If he did not sell this house for a higher price, he was afraid that he would have to bear the consequences.
Now, the trees and flowers in the house had withered, making it look very desolate.
Especially when they stood in the courtyard during the day, they felt cold all over, as if a ghost was blowing cold air beside their ears.
Who would be willing to buy such a house?
Wasn't this a pure and innocent great injustice!
"Sigh…"
However, despite his worry, the young man still sighed helplessly and turned to leave.
After all, if he couldn't sell this house, his fate might be even worse.
