Jin Qianqian never imagined that merely inheriting an estate would mysteriously grant her a spatial dimension. Unsure of where the space led—to an apocalypse, transmigration, or endless survival ...
Chapter 332 333. Asking for help
Kuang Tianman seemed to be frightened. He quickly hid behind his father but said nothing.
"Little sister, what are you doing? Look how scared Tianman is.
I haven't even come to you to settle the score yet. You brought my daughter to your house for so long. Did your boy seduce her?"
Hearing her elder brother say this, Kuang Yunqiao almost fell backwards in anger, "She and Jing Yang have only met a few times, why would my Jing Yang flirt with her?
I didn't expect my niece to be so capable. She couldn't seduce Bai Jinglie, so she actually set her sights on Jing Yang."
Kuang Tianman felt increasingly cold in her heart. This good aunt had not said this before, and she did not dislike her as much as she did now.
Fortunately, she made up her mind yesterday, otherwise, even if she was kicked out of the Marquis' Mansion, her aunt would probably not feel guilty.
So what if he is my cousin? As long as I can achieve my goal, I may be able to become a marquis like my aunt.
This dispute lasted for several days. Finally, when Kuang Yunqiao agreed to give her the title of concubine, the Kuang family gradually calmed down, which also gave everyone a lot of topics to talk about.

Jin Qianqian couldn't help but give a thumbs up to this cousin. For the so-called glory and wealth, she even schemed against her own relatives.
But these are other people's choices, and she has more important things to do now.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs confiscated so many people, and some of the better shops and farms in the capital were also confiscated.
Some of the better locations had been reserved, so Jin Qianqian asked her housekeeper to ask around and only then was she able to purchase four shops and a small farm.
The location of this farm is even more remote than the one that was promised to be sold to her before, but many conditions are much better than that farm.
Jin Qianqian made the decision to use the place as a soap workshop, and has been renovating it in full swing these days.
"Madam, Li Zhuangtou came to see you." Lixia thought Jin Qianqian had forgotten, so she reminded her, "I wonder how the little boy is doing now? How is his wound healing?"
Xie Ermao, Jin Qianqian immediately remembered the name. She was so busy today that she actually forgot about this child.
Soon, Jin Qianqian found out the follow-up, and Liu Qingmei quickly reported all the news she had just learned.
The child named Xie Ermao was lucky. He happened to meet Jin Qianqian that day and was sent to the doctor as quickly as possible. Finally, his life was saved.
However, because he was bitten in many places, he is now completely disfigured.
Today, Li Zhuangtou came here because of the child. He wanted to ask the master to give the child a chance to live.
Jin Qianqian could only go to the side hall to meet Li Zhuangtou, "Since you have saved the man, then you can take him back. I think his father and brother should have left him some assets!"
All the clinics here have had money sent to them by Butler Fu, so they shouldn't be left without a job.
Li Zhuangtou had a bitter face, "Although Brother Xie and his family left some wealth, but with a half-grown child like this, every household in the village is in trouble, and no one can help."
A trace of displeasure flashed through Jin Qianqian's mind. What did this mean?
Li Zhuangtou's voice trembled, and he mustered up the courage to finish his words, "I was thinking that Madam's farm must need people to work, can you give Ermao a chance? His face is ruined, and people will definitely be scared if he goes out. I have been thinking about it for a few nights, and I can only come to ask you, Madam. I want to find him a job in the backyard and let him help out."
Jin Qianqian, "Are you trying to get him to sell himself?"
"No, no, Ermao can't sell himself." Li Zhuangtou shook his head very quickly. "Brother Xie certainly doesn't want Ermao to sell himself as a slave. Madam, Ermao is a good child, and he has a lot of strength and can do a lot of work."
Li Zhuangtou really had no choice. Ever since Ermao returned to the village, the children in the village would be scared and cry when they saw him. Now everyone walked around him. Li Zhuangtou was afraid that if this continued, the originally lively and lovely children would be ruined.
Seeing that he didn't want to sell the child, Jin Qianqian's expression softened a little, "Does he look scary now?"
Even in the present or future world, people still judge by appearance. Although they may not express disgust, that look of disdain is often the most hurtful.
What's more, they are just a few years old. If they continue to waste their time for a long time, even adults may not be able to bear it.
Li Zhuangtou gestured on his face a few times and said, "There are some particularly ugly scars. The doctor said that even if we get a panacea, there is no way to remove the marks."
Jin Qianqian thought about the fact that Gu Wenheng had taken in some more children recently, and thought about putting them in there to let them learn something.
"Wait until he is fully recovered, bring him to the mansion, and then we can make the arrangements!"
"Thank you, ma'am." Li Zhuangtou was naturally happy when he got the promise. This was the last thing he could do for Brother Xie. The future depended on the child's luck.
After the people left, Qingmei said angrily, "I heard that Ermao's father and his brothers took good care of these people before. I didn't expect that now that he is gone, these people want to throw the child away."
When Butler Fu went to deliver the silver, he took her along. At that time, he was curious and asked the villagers about her.
Jin Qianqian, "Isn't this normal? Not everyone knows how to repay kindness, and we saw it on the farm the other day. Those tenant farmers probably only have enough to support themselves, and they really don't have the spare energy to raise other people's children.
That Li Zhuangtou is also cunning, thinking of pushing the child to us, and taking a gamble, but it is just a trace of pity in our hearts. "

Gu Lehuan received this month's wages from Xu Nuo. Looking at the extra silver in his hand, Gu Lehuan looked up at her and said, "This is too much."
Xu Nuo, "Not much, this is the reward for helping me sell the farm last time. Thanks to your help, I have some income this month."
Although this is the inheritance left to me by my mother, I can still earn more money. Who would complain about having too much money?
Xu Nuo actually couldn't figure out what Gu Lehuan was thinking. Lord Gu was his uncle, and the family was also preparing to return home. There was no need for him to spend so much time here just for a few coins.
Gu Lehuan was about to refuse, but Xu Nuo glared back at him, so he could only retract his hand.
"This should be the last time we meet," Xu Nuo said with a smile, "After you go back, I guess you won't have to work odd jobs everywhere like you do now, right?"
Gu Lehuan, "I don't know what the situation will be like when I go back, Mr. Xu, please take good care of yourself."
Xu Nuo nodded, packed up his things and walked back into the house. He vaguely heard, "Wait for me..."
