Lin said it with a bit of regret. The most valuable thing in the house now is the yard, but the most important thing now is that everyone is okay.

The few people in front of him were unmoved. Their eyes glanced from Lin to Chu Yunli with evil intentions, and their eyes lit up, "Actually, there is another way."

"What can I do?" Lin asked hurriedly.

The leader smiled, showing his yellow teeth, "You've been talking about this for two days, but we still have to believe it. Why don't you put something on deposit?"

His eyes fell on Chu Yunli, making no secret of his coveting, and said with a deep smile, "Put someone as a deposit. We will get the money in two days, and we promise not to embarrass her."

"No!" Zheng Yanming stood up and refused without hesitation.

"So stubborn?" The man sneered, "Then there's only one way left." With a wave of his hand, the man with the big knife slashed hard.

Zheng Zhi's screams rang out in the yard, and the hand with half of the arm and its fingers still moving rolled to the side. There was no adhesion at all, and it had actually been chopped off.

"You said two days, if you still can't get the money out after two days..." He looked at Zheng Zhi's legs, "It will be his legs by then." After that, he led the others and left.

Mrs. Lin was already speechless, her face turned pale, and she sat softly on the ground. Zheng Yanming did not expect that his casual refusal would anger him and directly attack him.

It was Zheng Zu who reacted first and hurriedly ordered, "Help the master up and go find the doctor quickly!"

A group of frightened servants over there reacted and started getting busy.

Zheng Yanming reacted and went to help him, but Lin shook him off and said, "Asshole, that's your father!"

Chu Yunli crossed her arms, "Does my aunt mean that I should be traded for my uncle's hand?"

Ms. Lin glanced at her with disgust, "It's useless at all. It can't even hold a banknote. It's a waste of food."

Oh, I really don’t pretend anymore.

Perhaps seeing Zheng Zhi's hand being chopped off, Mrs. Lin was so frightened and angry that she was too lazy to pretend.

Chu Yunli was not angry, "My father gave you five hundred thousand taels of silver. If I waste it, I will also waste his money. Why do you worry?"

The money had been given to her for nearly ten years, and Ms. Lin had long since used it as her own money. However, her banknotes were indeed gone, and she was still waiting for the money to repay her debt three days later. She really had no intention of talking to Chu.

Yunli struggled, and when she saw Zheng Zhi screaming in the chair, she hurriedly shouted, "Where's the doctor, is he here?"

The Zheng family lived close to the street, and the doctor arrived soon, but he was helpless with the severed hand. "I am not good at medical skills, but I have read in ancient books that a doctor sewed the severed hand back up, which would affect the sensitivity of the hand... But

I can definitely pick it up..."

Mrs. Lin hurriedly asked, "Do you know any doctor in the capital who can take me?"

The doctor shook his head, "I have been practicing traditional Chinese medicine in the capital since I was a child. I heard that an imperial doctor tried it but failed."

Zheng Yanming and Mrs. Lin's faces instantly turned pale. If the imperial doctor failed, who else could they count on?

He could only say, "Doctor, please bandage it up."

When bandaging, Zheng Zhi screamed like a pig being slaughtered, and it took three or four servants to hold him down before the doctor could take action.

Chu Yunli had already gone out. Before going out, she went back and took the box with her. At this time, everyone in the family was looking at Zheng Zhi in the front yard, so she didn't meet anyone when she left. Lin

There were so few servants invited that even the porter went to help hold Zheng Zhi down.

Amid the screams in the yard, which were like slaughtering pigs, Chu Yunli left in a carriage and entered the inner city. It was the same restaurant as yesterday. As soon as she entered, a waiter took her directly to the third floor.

Today's room is much larger and more comfortable than yesterday's. Shao An sat on a chair in front of the window. After hearing the knock on the door, he opened the door himself, with a smile in his eyes, "Yanlan, are you here?"

Chu Yunli sat down after entering the door, "How long have you been waiting?"

"It didn't take long." Shao An sat across from her. In fact, he wanted to sit next to her, but this way, he would be a little intrusive.

Shao An put the snack in front of her, "I told my parents about you."

Chu Yunli paused, "What did they say?"

Shao An was a little nervous, "They want to meet you and then talk about marriage."

That's right, it would be too unreliable to agree directly without even meeting her. Besides, as for her status, her father is a Jinshi, but he has not entered the official career, so it is really not that good. "What if they don't agree?" she asked.

.

"I just want to marry you." Shao An said seriously, "The first time I saw you, I felt familiar, as if... we are very close and familiar..."

Her eyes were clear, but the clearness was full of vicissitudes of life. He especially remembered these eyes that concealed the vicissitudes of life. He had often dreamed of them since he was a child. He suddenly reached out and held hers.

Chu Yunli didn't move. Shao An was delighted when he saw this, "You treat me the same way, right?"

Generally, when a man holds a girl's hand, if the man is unmarried and the girl is not familiar with him, the girl's first reaction is to refuse, and then she will be shy or angry, but Chu Yunli did not move and did not refuse his approach.

Chu Yunli burst into tears suddenly, and Shao An became anxious, "What's wrong with you? Did I pinch you?"

"I'm fine." Chu Yunli wiped her eyes, "I'm happy."

——I'm glad you can remember me, it makes me feel that all the expectations and waiting have been lived up to.

The two of them had a meal together. Shao An told some interesting stories about the county prince's palace. After that, Chu Yunli stood up and said, "I have to buy a yard."

Shao An looked at her suspiciously, "Aren't you staying at your aunt's house?"

Chu Yunli smiled, "We won't be able to live here for long, so we have to prepare a way out."

She thought of something and took out the seal, "Do you recognize this?"

Shao An took it and looked at it carefully, "This is the token of Wan'an Bank." He pointed to the small words on it, "Here, Sun Shao."

Really, Chu Yunli took it and asked, "Do you know where it is?"

Shao An pointed to the opposite side and said, "There is a family over there."

The two of them went downstairs and went straight over. The shopkeeper was a young man in his thirties. He took the seal and looked at it for a long time, then looked at Shao An, leaned down and said, "You two, wait a moment."

After saying that, he entered the backyard. Soon, a steady old man in his sixties came out and looked at Sun Yanlan with squinted eyes. "What's your name? Who is he?"

There might as well be a problem. Chu Yunli raised his eyebrows and said, "Sun Yanlan is his daughter."

"That's not the name." The old shopkeeper waved his hand, "Is there anything else?"

That's not it?

Chu Yunli lowered his eyes, maybe Wan'an Bank didn't want to give it?

However, a bank that can start with a ten thousand character should not be run by someone with no identity at all. It has been in business for many years and has a strong backend. It should not be a secret... She thought about it carefully. When Sun Shao was a child, he often called

Daughter... She asked tentatively, "Lan Bao?"

The old shopkeeper looked slightly relaxed, "Girl, can I see your arm?" Shao An, who was next to him, looked ugly. The old shopkeeper looked at him and said, "Sorry, this is a necessary process."

There was a light brown birthmark on Sun Yanlan's arm, which was not conspicuous. After reading it, the old shopkeeper took out a box and put it on the table, "This is what Mr. Sun Shao put here."

Being so strict, Chu Yunli asked curiously, "If someone else comes, can they take it away?"

The old shopkeeper handed over a piece of yellowed paper, "The age, name, birthmark, and the shopkeeper's judgment, if any of them don't match up, this thing cannot be taken."

Therefore, even if this thing is taken by Mrs. Yan or the Lin family and the Lin family, they will not be able to get it.

In her previous life, Sun Yanlan didn't know there was such a thing from the beginning to the end. Later on, it was just meager food that might not be enough to fill her up. Mrs. Yan didn't even come up with this, so it seemed like it was useless.

Chu Yunli stood up and said seriously, "Thank you."

The old shopkeeper smiled and said, "No, if the girl needs it in the future, you can leave it to us again."

Chu Yunli, "..." is quite good at doing business.

There were a lot of things in the box, most of which were land deeds and banknotes. Earlier she said she wanted to buy a yard, but she didn’t need it now. Among them was a land deed for three courtyards in the inner city. It seemed that the Sun family’s former wealth was not a lie. The sky was bright and clear.

It was still early, so the two of them went straight to the yard without delay.

The first of these three courtyards was much larger than the one outside the Zheng family. After entering the innermost inner room, Chu Yunli put things away. It was already getting late. When he came out, he saw Shao An standing in the front yard with his hands behind his back.

middle.

He turned around and pointed to the deserted yard and house, "Do you need someone to help you take care of the yard?"

"Okay." Chu Yunli smiled, winked and said, "But don't clean up the main courtyard."

Shao An understood immediately, "I will watch it for you."

Chu Yunli left the inner city at the last moment before the city gate was closed. When she arrived at Zheng's house, it was already dark outside, the candlelight in the yard was not bright enough, and it was lifeless. She went straight back to her yard.

Just as she was washing up, Mrs. Lin came, sat down and said, "Yan Lan, you grew up with Yan Ming, are you really not able to help us?"

Chu Yunli looked at her haggard face, and it was obvious that this was not what Mrs. Lin wanted to say. By this time, Mrs. Lin had long believed that she had no banknotes around her, otherwise she would not have clearly said that she was a waste in the morning.

She asked directly, "What does aunt want to say?"

Mrs. Lin looked at her for a while and said, "I want to find a match for you."

Chu Yunli was surprised, "I won't marry!"

Mrs. Lin frowned, "But Yan Ming already has a good match. If you continue to stay in the Zheng family, it will cause unrest in the family."

Seeing the impatient expression on her face, Chu Yunli was suspicious, "You haven't already found someone for me, have you?"

Mrs. Lin avoided her eyes and said, "I'm raising you for a life, not as a biological mother but as a mother. I'm devoted to you, can't I decide on your marriage?"

"No!" Chu Yunli stood up and looked at her condescendingly, "You coveted my Sun family's wealth and brought me to the Zheng family. What have you taught me over the years? If you give me a bite of food, you are being kind to me?"

"It's impossible for Yan Ming to marry you." Mrs. Lin said angrily, "Because of you today, your uncle's hand was cut off..."

"Wait a minute!" Chu Yunli raised her hand to stop her, "How did my uncle's hand get chopped off? Tell me again? Do you want me to ask someone on the street outside to comment?"

Lin was silent, naturally this matter cannot be made known to everyone.

So, because of Zheng Yanming's words, Zheng Zhi's hand was cut off, and now it is her fault. Is the Lin family unable to tolerate her?

Chu Yunli thought of the malicious look in his eyes today and asked, "Could it be that the person you helped me find is the person who brought someone in today?"

Lin didn't speak, which was regarded as acquiescence. When she met Chu Yunli's clear eyes, she frowned and said, "What's wrong? Although he is a bit fierce, but that is to outsiders. You can eat and drink with him without any worries.
