Chapter 90 Visiting the Guo Family



“Bang!”

"Why are you hitting me again!" Han Yilian screamed.

Han Yuanwai said angrily, "You still say you haven't caused any trouble. I've loved and pampered you since you were little, and this is how you repay me?"

"So what? It's you who made me fatherless. You owe me, so you should take care of me."

"Just now, I think you were planning to get me out of the Han family!"

"How dare you do that? Aren't you afraid that my father will find trouble with you if he finds out?"

Han Yilian didn't care about anything else at this time. She covered her face and growled at Mr. Han.

Han Yuanwai covered his chest in anger and said angrily: "Well, well, I actually raised an ungrateful wolf."

"Forget it. As you said, your father saved my life."

"I haven't treated you badly. I've pampered you and raised you in luxury. Once you get married, you'll have no connection with my Han family anymore."

"Master Guo, please be a witness."

Mr. Han bowed to Guo Youcai, and the housekeeper also came over with Qiu Hanyan and Qiu Hanchi, who were unharmed.

Seeing that his brother was safe and sound, Qiu Yinong had no intention of getting involved in the Han family's affairs.

"Mr. Jie Yuan, this is an apology. I hope you will accept it." The mistress also asked someone to bring the things over.

One hundred taels of silver and some precious medicinal herbs.

Qiu Hanyan looked at Qiu Yinong, and Qiu Yinong nodded, saying that it would be a waste not to take it.

"Mr. Jie Yuan was frightened." Han Yuanwai also hurried forward to apologize, and Qiu Hanyan looked at him calmly.

After a while, he said, "Since we have apologized, we will take our leave."

Mr. Han didn't dare to stop them and could only watch them leave.

Guo Youcai looked at Mr. Han and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Han, if you keep a wolf, be careful of the wolf's backlash. Cut it off when necessary."

"I understand. Thank you very much, sir." Mr. Han understood what Guo Youcai meant and bowed to express his gratitude.

After everyone left, Han Yuanwai took the first seat and said to the housekeeper, "Go and invite the elders to come and draw the family tree."

"Dad!" Han Yilian panicked and looked at Mr. Han in horror.

The butler hesitated for a moment, then turned and left.

The mistress sat in the main seat on the right, so she could leisurely observe the panic and fear on her face, and felt very happy.

Han Yilian met the mistress's gaze, and resentment spread in her eyes.

"Yier, let's go visit Uncle Guo's house."

Guo Youcai walked out of the Han family and saw Qiu Yinong standing at the door waiting for him, so he walked up to her and greeted her with a smile.

Qiu Yinong looked at her two brothers and asked, "Third brother, fifth brother, are you feeling unwell?"

"No, those servants left us in the woodshed, and the woman left before she could do anything to us."

Qiu Hanchi nodded and said, "Since Lord Guo invited you, you should go!"

"I'm wrong, I'm inviting you to be my guest." Guo Youcai said cheerfully.

"Come to think of it, Qiu Hanyan can be considered my disciple."

Qiu Hanyan smiled and bowed, it was indeed so.

"Let's go!" Guo Youcai greeted with a smile, and several people followed him and went to Guo's house with him.

The Guo Mansion was actually not far from the small courtyard they had bought. Qiu Yinong pointed at the newly bought courtyard and said, "Uncle Guo, I didn't expect that you and my third brother are neighbors."

"Oh? So you guys bought the Qian family's house."

Guo Youcai looked at the Qiu family courtyard and stroked his beard.

"Is there something wrong with this house?" Qiu Yinong turned around and looked at her own yard, asking curiously.

Guo Youcai laughed out loud: "No, that's not the case. His son became the top scorer in the imperial examination three years ago, and he followed his son and daughter-in-law to take up the position."

"Since this house once produced a top scholar, why doesn't anyone buy it?" Qiu Yinong was really curious now.

Guo Youcai looked into her curious eyes and said after a while, "Do you really want to know?"

"Yeah." The three Qiu siblings nodded at the same time.

Guo Youcai was amused and said, "Okay, since you want to know, I'll tell you. I just hope you won't be scared."

"I am a martial artist and I am very brave." Qiu Yinong patted his chest, looking ambitious.

Guo Youcai laughed so hard that he threw his head back, then he restrained his smile and said, "This house has produced a top scholar, so students naturally flock to it."

"But as it happened, a few days before the Qian family left, Mrs. Qian accidentally fell and hit her head on a big rock in the yard and died."

"That old lady is not very popular. She is a bit mean and skinny."

"Plus, he could have gone there to live a good life, but he fell to his death before leaving."

"The scholar who bought this house always felt like someone was standing by his bedside. He was probably going to get sick from being scared in a few days."

"After the rumor spread, no one was interested in this No. 1 Scholar's house, no matter how good it was."

Qiu Yinong rolled her eyes after hearing this. It was obvious that they were just scaring themselves and imagining it.

She had just asked the small system to scan it, and there was no such mess at all.

I can only say that these scholars are really weak.

"Third brother, are you afraid?" Qiu Yinong looked at Qiu Hanyan.

Qiu Hanyan smiled and rubbed her head, saying happily: "Third brother is not afraid of these things, don't worry, besides, don't cousin Shanda live with me?"

"You're just scaring yourself. Even if there really is a ghost, I have nothing to do with the old lady. I didn't harm her, so she has no reason to harm me."

There is nothing wrong with what he said.

"That's good. I was worried that you would be scared, Third Brother."

"Let's go, my home is just ahead." Guo Youcai called out.

Qiu Yinong nodded, and the few of them walked towards Guo's house again.

The Guo Mansion is not as big and spacious as everyone imagines. It is just a courtyard with two entrances and a simple gate - Guo's House.

"You guys go back first. Take this money and let the brothers who are not on duty go to the restaurant for a meal. The brothers who are on duty today will take over tomorrow."

Guo Youcai gave instructions to the four yamen runners who followed him and put some silver in the runner's hand.

The bailiff smiled and thanked him, took the silver, said goodbye to Guo Youcai, and left.

"Come on, please come in."

Guo Youcai personally went forward and knocked on the door. Soon the door opened and the servant saluted respectfully: "Master, you are back."

"Well, go and ask the butler to come to the hall to see me." Guo Youcai nodded and then gave the order.

The servant immediately obeyed the order and disappeared from sight.

"Hey kid, come on, don't be polite, just treat it as your own home."

Guo Youcai shook his head helplessly, then turned and greeted Qiu Yinong and his siblings.

As soon as we sat down, a maid brought us tea and snacks, which were the common ones available in the market.

"Go and call the lady over."

Guo Youcai gave an order to a maid, who took it, handed the tray in her hand to another maid, and went to the backyard to call people.

"Master, are you looking for me?" Soon a tall and thin middle-aged man came to the hall.

"Well, inform the cook that we're having a dinner tonight and ask her to prepare it."

Guo Youcai nodded and gave instructions to the housekeeper.

The housekeeper left quickly. Guo Youcai looked at Qiu Hanyan and said, "Hanyan came to Wen County this time to continue his studies at the county school, right?"
