Chapter 243 Buying a House



Chen Ganzi got a beautiful wife, but he didn't expect that she was such a hot-tempered girl. He picked up a pair of scissors and pointed them at her throat, ready to die.

There are many beauties in the house, but few have such a strong temper. Just thinking about how such a woman would look when she surrendered on the couch makes my heart restless.

Anyway, there is a long time to come, so Chen Ganzi was not in a hurry and returned to the house happily. The maid beside him brought him calming tea and pinched her butt before she left.

"You look like a dead person!" the maid said angrily.

Chen Ganzi chuckled, but still did not keep the maid.

Just as he was humming a little tune and unbuttoning his outer robe, suddenly, a chaotic noise was heard outside.

"What's going on?"

When Chen Ganzi ran to the yard, he saw flames rising from the west room. Everyone rushed over with buckets of water to put out the fire. The personal servant hurried over and said, "Master Chen, let's get out of here quickly, otherwise it will burn over here."

"Isn't the west room empty? How did it catch fire out of nowhere?" asked Chen Ganzi.

The servant couldn't explain it clearly, so he quickly pulled the man up and said, "Master, wait until the fire is out and let the people from the government come to investigate and we'll know what happened. Let's go quickly."

Chen Ganzi returned to the house, took some things and left with the servant. Unexpectedly, just as he was jogging out of the house, he was shot in the hair by a long arrow.

"ah!"

Chen Ganzi let out a wail and fainted.

"Assassin! There's an assassin!"

The servant was so scared that he ran into the house and shouted.

Just at this moment, a gust of wind blew, and the things Chen Ganzi was holding were scattered all over the ground. Several pieces of paper were blown away by the wind.

When the family guards arrived, there was no sign of the assassin nearby. Because there was a shortage of staff in the yard, most of the women who were locked up in Chen Ganzi's backyard took advantage of the chaos to escape.

When the fire just started, Ah Xing, who was locked in the east wing, heard the people guarding the door leave, so she took advantage of the chaos to smash the window. When she was about to escape, she came back, knocked over the candle, and then jumped out of the window and left.

She ran along the wall all the way. Just as she ran to the back door, she saw a servant running in hurriedly and shouting for help, so she quickly hid.

After the man left, she ran out from the back door and saw Chen Ganzi lying on the ground with papers scattered around him.

She still held the scissors in her hand and was angry, but she gritted her teeth, kicked Chen Ganzi who was lying on the ground, and then ran away.

After setting the fire, Duan Yidao broke the locks of several rooms where people were locked up and quickly fled. He went to a high-rise building and brought Song Yuehua down.

Song Yue just happened to see Ah Xing running back home and thought, she had done her best and now it was up to them.

Duan Yidao was asked to return the longbow borrowed from the Ma family. It was already the second half of the night.

Having stayed up all night today, Song Yuehua planned to take a day off before leaving.

The next day, she slept until noon and felt hungry as soon as she opened her eyes. She didn't know where Duan Yidao had gone. When she came to the market to find something to eat, she happened to meet Xiaotao buying food.

"Xiao Tao."

"Sister Liuwan." Xiaotao lifted up one corner of her headscarf.

Song Yuehua asked casually, "Isn't there a stall today?"

"No," Xiao Tao said with a roll of her eyes, "There are still some fish balls at home, do you want some, sister?"

Song Yuehua swallowed and said, "I do want to eat something."

Xiao Tao chuckled and said, "Sister Liuwan is the best girl at eating fish balls that I have ever seen."

Song Yuehua said shyly, "It's not that great."

The two talked as they walked.

After knocking on the door, Grandma Zhang was stunned to see Xiao Tao and Song Yuehua, then smiled awkwardly and asked, "Miss, are you here to eat fish balls again?"

Seeing Grandma Zhang's expression, Song Yuehua finally realized that Ah Xing had just come back yesterday, and Grandma Zhang definitely didn't want strangers to come to her house, so the fish balls might not be eaten.

Song Yuehua nodded, and when she was about to be rejected, Xiao Tao said, "Grandma, we still have so many fish balls at home, just cook them for Sixth Sister."

Granny Zhang smiled helplessly and said, "Young lady, please come in."

It seems that Ah Xing is not at home, Song Yuehua thought.

Xiaotao helped Song Yuehua over the threshold.

Grandma Zhang cooked her a bowl of fish balls and said, "There are a lot of fish balls today, so you can have as many as you want, young lady."

Just then, a fat man with big ears came to the door and knocked.

"Girl, you eat first. I'll go take a look." After saying that, Grandma Zhang went to the door to talk to the man.

The man whispered, "Grandma Zhang, I'm here to buy this yard from you."

"Who said I was going to sell my house?" Grandma Zhang said sternly.

Shen Dahai laughed and said, "I saw you looking for Liu Yaren this morning, and I overheard what you said. We are neighbors. I bought this house from you, too. Why did you hide it from me?"

Seeing that Granny Zhang was a little interested, Shen Dahai struck while the iron was hot and said, "Granny Zhang, how about 100 taels? We'll go to sign the contract this afternoon."

Granny Zhang said angrily, "100 taels? Shen Dahai, are you crazy? Even in a small county town, the price is much higher than this. How dare you ask for this?"

"There's nothing I can do about it," Zhang Dahai said with a chuckle.

"You know my family's situation. 100 taels is the limit we can get. Since we have been neighbors for so many years, please sell it to me at a lower price."

Xiao Tao suddenly came over and interrupted, "We won't sell that house for less than 200 taels."

"Why do you, kids, interrupt when adults are talking?" Shen Dahai scolded, then lowered his voice.

"Grandma, I know you're in a hurry to sell this house. There was a big fire at Chen Ganzi's house yesterday. I heard that many people ran away. I guess Ah Xing was also there. Are you planning to sell the house and run away?"
