Yang Niannian looked back at the military wives in the rearview mirror. Although she couldn't hear what they were saying, she knew they would definitely not say anything nice.

She looked away speechlessly, looked at Du Weili and asked, "Why are you here? I don't think I told you that I live here, right?"

Du Weili looked very proud. "I want to know where you live. It's just a matter of moving my fingers. Didn't I tell you a long time ago that I have a wide network of contacts?"

Yang Niannian rolled her eyes and said, "Speak human language."

Du Weili: "Boss Zheng said so."

Before Yang Niannian could say anything, he continued, "No wonder you are so confident, your man must be of a high rank, right?"

Yang Niannian, "Don't ask about things you shouldn't ask about."

Du Weili freed one hand to touch his nose and asked with a guilty conscience.

"I think those military wives seem to have misunderstood our relationship. Will it have any negative impact on you?"

He had made an appointment with someone else and it would be inappropriate to be late, so he came to pick up Yang Niannian. He didn't expect to be watched by so many people.

"What?" Yang Niannian raised her eyebrows and asked, "Are you planning to die as an apology?"

"You are such a vicious woman."

Du Weili suddenly became curious about the identity of Yang Niannian's husband. What kind of man could control Yang Niannian's mutant strain?

Although Du Weili usually looks sloppy and unruly, he is very serious when it comes to doing his work. He is never late and always arrives early when he makes an appointment with a client.

It is precisely because he knows his limits that Zheng Haitian thinks so highly of him.

He drove Yang Niannian directly to the relevant department. Since Du Weili had consulted in advance and understood the procedures, he took Yang Niannian directly to go through the process. Everything went quite smoothly and the procedures were completed in the morning.

Yang Niannian was so excited when she held the house deed. She now owned a house.

Seeing her greedy look, Du Weili proudly put his hands on his waist and asked for credit, "How are you going to thank me?"

"Let me show you my new house."

Yang Niannian opened the car door and sat directly in the passenger seat.

Du Weili sat in the driver's seat and said unhappily, "You are really the best at repaying kindness with enmity."

Although he said this, he still drove Yang Niannian to see the house.

Because no one has lived here for a long time, the keys are long gone. Even if there are keys, they are useless. The old-fashioned locks are rusty and can no longer be used normally.

Du Weili found a brick on the roadside and smashed the lock with it. He pushed open the door, and dust flew everywhere. The door panel creaked, making a somewhat creepy sound.

Du Weili was terribly frightened and refused to go in.

"If you want to go in, go in by yourself. I won't go in anyway. I am a principled person and I usually don't go to places like this."

Yang Niannian glanced at him and said, "I have never seen a man as timid and afraid of ghosts as you. Do you have the guts to do that? My husband is not as scared as you when he sees a ghost."

Du Weili retorted unconvincedly, "Your man is a soldier, he has a strong yang energy, how dare demons and ghosts show themselves in front of him? How can a businessman like me compete with him?"

Without waiting for Yang Niannian to speak, he raised his chin and said, "It's no use trying to provoke me this time. I won't go in anyway. If you don't dare to go in, ask your man to come with you. He is a soldier, and demons and monsters have to give way to him."

Yang Niannian said with a 'huh' sound, "Humans are much scarier than ghosts."

After saying that, he walked straight in.

The house had been abandoned for too long, the electrical circuit had long been broken and the lights could not be turned on. In addition, the windows of the old house were small, so the house was a bit dark, full of dust, and the furniture was tilted to one side.

I guess everyone knows that someone died in this house, and they find it unpleasant. Even though the furniture inside appears to be made of high-quality wood, no one comes to steal.

It is not difficult to tell from the decoration and layout of the house that this family was once a wealthy family. The wall clocks look very valuable, and such clocks are no longer available now.

Yang Niannian visited downstairs for a while, then slowly went upstairs. The stairs were covered with spider webs.

She bent down and picked up a small wooden board to clear a path in front of her. When she reached the corner, she found that there were traces of knife cuts on the wooden handrail of the stairs, and there were some unknown stains on it.

There were more unknown stains as she went upstairs, so she avoided them and slowly went upstairs.

Although I'm not afraid of ghosts and there won't be such things in broad daylight, this is a haunted house after all, and it's the kind where everyone is killed, so I'm still a little scared.

The curtains on the second floor had fallen down, and two windows were broken. The living room was brighter than downstairs, but also a little messier. Furniture and clothes were scattered all over the floor, and there were knife marks on the furniture, which showed how tragic what happened here was.

The daily necessities in the master bedroom and the second bedroom were still there. Many of the items were things that could not be seen in the 21st century. However, there were no particularly valuable items, so they were probably taken away by the murderer.

Perhaps because it had been abandoned for too long, the house was gloomy and filled with an unpleasant musty smell. Yang Niannian looked around the rooms, understood the layout, and then went downstairs.

Du Weili paced back and forth at the door with his hands on his waist. When he saw Yang Niannian coming out, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"My dear aunt, you finally came out. I thought you fainted in there and was going to find someone to carry you out."

To be honest, Du Weili really admired Yang Niannian from the bottom of his heart this time. She looked very thin, but she was not afraid of even ghosts.

Just because of this courage and bravery, he would never believe that Yang Niannian would not become rich in the future, even if he was beaten to death.

Yang Niannian understood what she heard. Even if she was really scared to death, Du Weili would not go in. This guy is really afraid of ghosts!

She had no mood to argue with Du Weili, so she spoke seriously.

"I'll find someone to clean up the inside later. I think the house is built very solidly. Apart from the broken door panels and windows, there are no other problems. It can be renovated and people can still live in it."

Originally, Yang Niannian wanted to leave the house idle, but she found that the structure of the house was very solid and the overall frame was not damaged at all. It would be a pity to leave it vacant.

Du Weili bared his teeth and asked, "Are you kidding me?"

He clasped his hands together and said, "I've discovered that you really have the potential to be a businessman. You are bold and ruthless. I can't compare to you in this aspect. I admit defeat."

Yang Niannian crossed her arms and said in a proper tone, "As long as I don't hide the fact that a murder had taken place in the house when someone else comes to rent it, it's considered a legitimate rental. Why would I feel guilty about that?"

Changing the subject, she asked, "Is this as scary as a hospital bed? How many years have humans survived? From ancient times to the present, is there any land where there has not been a death? Maybe even more terrible things have happened where you live now."

There are many people who do not believe in ghosts and gods, are brave and are willing to live here.

Besides, it happened more than 20 years ago.

As long as she tells the tenant the truth about the house, and if the tenant is willing to rent it, then it is his freedom.

Du Weili was speechless and compromised.

"Okay, okay, okay, I can't argue with you. You are free to do whatever you want with this house. You are the owner anyway, so you decide. Let's go now! Okay, auntie?"

He didn't want to stay here for a moment.

Yang Niannian turned around and closed the door. "Take me to buy a new lock first. This door is broken and it will open easily if the wind blows. It would be bad if a naughty child goes in and something happens."

Du Weili had just put his hand on the car door when he heard Yang Niannian's words. He pointed to the left and said, "There is a hardware store just ahead."

"Then wait for me here for a while." Yang Niannian raised her foot and walked to the left.

Du Weili quickly followed, "I'll go with you."

The corner of Yang Niannian's mouth twitched. It was broad daylight and she had no idea what this guy was afraid of.

She bought a padlock, locked the door, and at Du Weili's urging, took a car to the scrap yard.

Jiang Yang was talking to a man. When he saw Yang Niannian and Du Weili come in, he asked loudly.

"Niannian, did you introduce this uncle?"

Yang Niannian looked at the man next to Jiang Yang and recognized him as the worker who delivered the refrigerator to her. "Uncle, is that you?"

When the worker saw Yang Niannian, he smiled and nodded honestly, "I came here last time, but I didn't find you, so I came here again today to take a look."

Hearing this, Yang Niannian said to Jiang Yang, "Aren't you quite busy recently? Discuss your work schedule with uncle and see how to arrange it."

Jiang Yang had just learned about the uncle's free time, so he arranged working hours for him from 7:30 to 9:30 in the morning and from 4:30 to 6:30 in the afternoon.

The uncle had no objection, as this would coincide with the time he spent shopping at the mall.

After the uncle left, Du Weili went to the well to wash his hands, then asked Yang Niannian, "Do you want me to send you back to the army?"

Yang Niannian shook her head, "No, I'll ride my bike back."

Du Weili felt relieved and turned to look at Jiang Yang. "Do you like wearing suits? I don't want this suit anymore. It would be a pity to throw it away. How about giving it to you?"

This suit brought too much bad luck when it was placed in front of a haunted house, and he no longer wanted it.

Jiang Yang looked disgusted and said, "No."
