Zhou frowned. Although it had been sold to someone else, the house and shops were still the property left by her Cui family ancestors. How could they be destroyed?
She never imagined that her family's business would be ruined after being sold to someone else.
"Who is this buyer?"
The old butler shook his head, a look of apprehension on his face.
"I don't know, but the owner of this buyer has never appeared. When the name was changed and the property was transferred, it was handled by his subordinates. It seems that the government officials really respect this big buyer."
"They're probably from Islaile's side, not ours from Tianqi. Otherwise, why would the government be so accommodating?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou was taken aback, and her expression froze for a moment.
Is he from Islail?
That makes sense.
Otherwise, at this point, who among her people from Tianqi would dare to buy houses here?
"Forget it, let's leave it at that. After all, even this land doesn't belong to Apocalypse anymore. We won't be coming back here in the future, whether it's destroyed or not, we won't see it again."
"Yes, Madam, the other shops that were rented to merchants, except for the two given to the young master of the He family, have also been acquired by this buyer."
We also need to make it clear to these merchants that when it comes to the handover, the buyer should go and negotiate with these merchants themselves.
"We've pretty much finished picking everything here."
Zhou looked up at the sky and sighed.
"In the future, I will have little to do with this Jincheng."
As soon as Zhou finished speaking, Hualian, supported by her nanny, slowly swayed over, her slender waist swaying gracefully, her face beaming with smiles.
"Sister, you'll have to rely on your family for support in the future. It's so good to have a strong and well-established family."
"We're just drifting duckweed, with such lowly lives, unlike you, sister, who has someone to rely on wherever you go." Hualien's words carried a hint of bitterness.
Because of He Yusheng's affair, the person Zhou can't stand the most lately is Hualien, who came up with this bad idea.
When the master was alive, she vied for his favor; after his death, she continued to cause trouble for him. She's practically left a menace in the household.
On the way to Baicheng, she devised a plan to sell that little bitch off.
Anyway, the master is dead, and as she herself said, she's just a drifter, with no one to back her up anymore.
This little slut, she seduced the master into the manor at such a young age, and she's still incredibly delicate and can still fetch a good price.
However, I need to find a way to avoid that little bitch's children, lest they hold a grudge against me.
She was still hoping that her children could help her build connections with the Cui family and win over people's hearts.
Zhou had her own agenda, and she had already made arrangements for Hualien's life.
Hualien was unaware that at such a young age she had followed a decrepit old man, only to end up gaining nothing and now being sold off like trash.
She thought the Cui family was finished. Her original plan was to take some money, run away, and find a new family to rely on for a long-term meal ticket.
Unexpectedly, the Cui family is going to Baicheng. Wouldn't they be able to rise to prominence again and revive their family fortune?
Then there's no need for her to leave. Staying with the Cui family means she can enjoy endless wealth and luxury.
If you can appease this haggard old woman, she'll be set for life. Her future will be secure, and even her children will have someone to rely on.
With the Cui family's reputation, she can probably find a good family to marry into.
Thinking about this, I feel somewhat relieved.
Back then, she failed to marry into the He family and become their legal wife; that little bitch beat her to it. Now, she still lives a life of comfort and ease, though her status is somewhat less appealing.
If it weren't for He Yusheng's mother interfering, she believed she could have entered the He family and become their legal wife.
She didn't want to become a concubine for some old geezer.
Even after marrying into the He family and becoming their legal wife, she would still have plenty to eat and drink. The He family was extremely wealthy, and that was the life she wanted.
But because of that brat's mother, her promising life was ruined.
Instead of marrying into the He family, she was carried into the Cui family in a sedan chair and became that little slut's concubine.
Even if you kill that little bitch, she can never become a wife of the He family again.
She could only live a life of darkness in the Cui family, being suppressed by this haggard old woman and made a concubine, inferior to everyone else!
However, things are different now. If the Cui family really goes to Baicheng, their status will rise.
Even if she remains a concubine, she will be a different kind of concubine.
The families I met and came into contact with were all truly distinguished and prestigious families.
The thought of everything she would see in the future was completely different, and Hualien couldn't help but feel excited. If she could find a good family for her child, her social standing would rise, and she might even be able to outshine this old hag.
The more she thought about it, the more likely it seemed, and Hualien's thoughts began to wander.
When the time comes, we must teach Ying'er and the others a good lesson. At their age, they should learn how to win a man's heart.
As long as she finds a prestigious family with an even higher threshold than this plain-looking woman's family, she'll be able to hold her head high.
However, with Cui Zhiling around, she will definitely become a stumbling block for her Ying'er, Fu'er, and Rong'er.
When she entered the Cui family mansion, she was still quite young, about the same age as the old man's sons. By the time she had children, they were already about the same age as her grandchildren.
Although her children are a generation older than Cui Zhiling and are considered her elders, they are roughly the same age, and at this age, they could all be choosing partners from the same generation.
When a good candidate comes along, this old hag will definitely choose the one that best suits her granddaughter. Only the ones left over will end up with her children.
Therefore, if Cui Zhiling gets in the way of her children, she wouldn't hesitate to ruin her.
Thinking of this, a hint of ruthlessness flashed in Hualien's eyes.
She would rely entirely on her children for the rest of her life. Once she arrived in Baicheng, she would do her best to find them excellent families to marry into.
Who says that having a daughter means you're not successful or have no support?
As long as you marry well, that's all you need!
Perhaps, she could even step on this haggard old woman's head, stand above her, and become the head of the Cui family.
If you go to Baicheng, it's not impossible.
In Hualien, the two Zhou sisters each harbored their own schemes and secretly plotted against each other, but on the surface, they appeared to be getting along harmoniously, creating an atmosphere of sisters enjoying each other's company.
