nice one.
He approached without hesitation.
Seeing his movement, He Youyou quickly reached out to stop him: "Brother Sun, you mustn't lift this cloth! Underneath is an ancestral treasure, which has been placed in the main hall for decades to absorb the yang energy at noon, ensuring the safety of the house and the prosperity of the family. But now the house is too yin, and if it's not covered, it might not be able to suppress it."
Sun Er smiled, reached out and lifted a corner of the handkerchief, revealing a crystal-clear glass ball inside.
His eyes suddenly lit up.
What a wonderful baby!
It's clearly a priceless treasure.
He chuckled and quickly scooped up the glass marble wrapped in the handkerchief.
“Since your residence is filled with yin energy, I will reluctantly help you keep this item safe for now. My home is full of yang energy, which is perfect for keeping it.”
Without further ado, she grabbed her baby and ran out the door.
He Youyou feigned panic and lazily chased after him for a few steps.
Seeing that he had already left through the gate, she stopped pretending.
She was gambling, betting that this person had never seen anything good before, and was greedy and ignorant.
The housekeeper, Qian, who was standing nearby, witnessed all of this and was puzzled.
"Madam, this..."
So many things have changed in such a short time that he doesn't even know which one to ask first.
He could tell that He Youyou had done this on purpose regarding the crystal ball.
What happened with selling land to merchants from other places?
Is that true?
Who is Lin San?
If Sun Er finds out he's been tricked, he'll probably come back and give him a piece of his mind.
"Madam, about the sale of the land..."
He Youyou knew exactly what he wanted to ask, so she beckoned him to come closer.
He whispered something like this in his ear.
When Butler Qian heard this, he was dumbfounded.
He's really not the kind of person who hasn't seen a lot of ups and downs.
But why does the mistress act in such an eerie way?
Is this something a normal young lady from a respectable family could possibly figure out?
Shocked as he was, he still had to do as his mistress instructed.
My feelings were a mix of disbelief and anticipation.
He immediately summoned a few trusted subordinates and relayed He Youyou's instructions.
When Sun Er returned home, he held the glass marble and played with it with great affection.
He had long heard that the Han family was of great importance, with their ancestors having followed the founding emperor in conquering the country and having rendered meritorious service.
Their family is indeed very wealthy.
He had never seen such a crystal ball before.
Remembering what He Youyou had said, that this treasure needed to absorb yang energy to ensure the safety of the home, he placed it on a sunny table near the window.
He still had his mind on the deed to those thousand acres of land.
Not daring to delay, he had a horse-drawn carriage prepared and headed towards Jizhou City.
He was used to a dissolute lifestyle and often associated with the ruffians in Jizhou City.
After entering the city, they contacted a group of scoundrels they knew and cast a wide net throughout the city to search for the person.
Not long after, news came back.
Found it.
At Tianfu Inn in the east of the city, there is a traveling merchant named Lin San.
Sun Er was overjoyed: "Let's go take a look."
He blocked the door of Tianfu Inn, stopping the tall, thin man named Lin San.
Sun Er was shrewd in his calculations.
He is confident.
As a local strongman, he had a large following.
With such a menacing appearance, any outsider who saw it would feel uneasy and wouldn't dare to confront it head-on.
Unable to withstand his threats, they would readily hand over the land deeds to him at the original price.
Acquiring five taels of fertile land for three coins of silver is enough to make one laugh in their dreams.
Unexpectedly, Lin San did not panic when he heard the purpose of his visit.
He looked regretful and clasped his hands in a fist salute, saying, "My lords, it's a pity you're too late. My thousand acres of fertile land were sold yesterday."
Sun Er was stunned: "Sold?"
