Yamazaki went through the market to see the seller, Mrs. Li, at her home. She secretly looked at her from a high place and found that she was indeed a beauty.
She has a pretty appearance and is quite fair.
In such a comparison, the seller next to her, Mrs. Li, really has a bit of a yellow-faced attitude. No wonder she is not pleasing to the eye.
Yamazaki thought about it and discussed it with the seller, Mrs. Li, and bought it together with the servants in the courtyard, including clothes and jewelry, and packed them for 150,000 taels.
The seller, Mrs. Li, has no objection. It is always good to raise more money.
Yamazaki Yanming didn't have his house in order, so he paid a deposit of 30,000 taels through the market, and the matter was settled.
…
Yamazaki returned to the house and went to the landlord Liu Xuan, thinking about how to tell him to let him clear the yard first.
The landlord Liu Xuan said it first. It has been three days now. He has packed his things and found a house. He will move out today.
Yamazaki held up his hand and said, "Then I'll give you my best regards."
…
While they were moving here, Yamasaki sent the property deeds to a pawn shop for mortgage, took out 150,000 taels of silver, and went to pay for the house.
Just pay the deposit and then give it to the seller, Mrs. Li, 120,000 taels.
However, out of the transaction of 150,000 taels, 1,500 taels were sold to the public, so I had to get more.
Dong Fenglin had no idea about being sold.
When I saw Yamazaki and listened to the doctor's cheerful explanation of the situation, I was so frightened that my face turned pale and was about to collapse.
Yamazaki handed over his hand and said, "Ms. Dong, you don't have to be like this. I haven't married yet, and I don't plan to marry a real wife to take care of it. The family's property of 400,000 taels will be managed by Mrs. Dong from now on. Whatever we get, we will share it in half."
Dong Fenglin was startled again. She couldn't tell whether what fell from the sky was a disaster or a blessing.
Yamazaki motioned to the maids and slaves to pack their things and move everyone together.
When I was busy until the afternoon, it started to rain, and the atmosphere became sad.
Landowner Mr. Li also came running, "Lian'er!"
"Master!" Dong Fenglin immediately burst into tears.
Okay, Yamazaki feels like a bad guy.
But someone else took over the bad guy's job, and that was the landlord's wife.
"Get out of here, you prodigal son, what's so good about this woman? No matter how good-looking she is, she's just a dead flower in a flower house!
"Back then you were desperate to take her in, and you promised in front of your parents that she could give birth to a son for the family!"
"As a result, she has been given the infertility drug for a long time and cannot give birth to a child at all!"
"Also, since she came in, everything has been going wrong at home. We have been losing money every year, and we don't know how much money we will lose this year!"
"Such a spendthrift thing like this, if we don't sell her now while she can still get money, how can we keep her until she grows old?
"If you dare to leave her at home today, I will ask your parents to come over and judge her and ask you to kneel in the ancestral hall!"
"Go away! Go away! Go away!"
The shrew showed off her power, bared her teeth and claws like a tigress, and pushed and beat her husband out of the yard, telling his cronies to keep an eye on him and not let him come and cause trouble.
Yamazaki was shocked by the waterfall. Sure enough, marrying a wife is also a skill. If you marry the wrong one, you will really suffer for the rest of your life.
It's hard to say, but he'd better not marry a wife.
…
Dong Fenglin was crying sadly, and Yamazaki couldn't comfort her in front of the seller, so she could only tell the slave to pack her things and leave.
As a result, we actually moved a lot of things.
There are ten boxes of clothes, ten boxes of bedding, one box of jewelry, one box of tea sets, one box of utensils, three boxes of books, two boxes of small items, and another box of musical instruments.
There were twenty-eight boxes in total, four boxes per carriage, and it took seven carriages to load them.
Dong Fenglin went out and got into the carriage with tears in her eyes. Her personal maid Xiyu came with four slaves in the courtyard to ask Yamazaki for instructions, saying that everything was fine.
Yamazaki said goodbye to the seller, Mrs. Li, and led the team away.
After leaving the door, Xiyu showed a sweet smile to Yamazaki, "Master, the young lady is weak, I hope you have mercy on me."
Yamazaki laughed, "I'm talking about you."
"Naturally, I also hope that the master will be kind to you. The four servants, plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum, are also counting on the master."
"Okay, get in the car quickly, there will be plenty of time to talk nonsense."
"yes."
…
It was already dark when we got home, and the yard was completely dark.
The girls got out of the car and looked at the unlit yard, their hearts froze.
Yamazaki was also very embarrassed, he was really busy and forgot.
"Well, the yard was just bought. When the landlord Liu Xuan left, he took all the servants with him."
"I have fallen in love with Madam Dong and am in a hurry to buy someone. I have forgotten about this."
Madam Dong saluted, "Thank you very much for my love, sir."
"No need to be polite, why don't you go to our own restaurant to stay tonight."
"It all depends on the master's instructions."
"But you have to wear a veil, otherwise it will easily cause trouble."
"That's what the master said."
…
Yamazaki took the people to a restaurant, took the banknotes to the shopkeeper, exchanged them for some silver, rewarded them to the carriage drivers, and sent them back.
Then he asked the shopkeeper to open a courtyard for Dong Fenglin and the others, saying that she was the proprietress.
The shopkeeper didn't dare to neglect and personally led him to check in.
He also called for the nursing home to help guard it.
Yamazaki asked him to find more people to patrol the yard and watch the night.
There is a big courtyard over there without even a light. Maybe a gentleman from Liang Shang will come to visit.
…
Yamazaki settled down with Dong Fenglin, and then left without staying for dinner, using the excuse of a date to leave.
Dong Fenglin was doubtful, but Xiyu went to ask the shopkeeper, and then came back with a happy face and reported that the master had recently bought a lot of properties, and he was really a rich man.
Dong Fenglin finally felt at ease and breathed a sigh of relief.
To be honest, she was very grateful to her former master for taking her out of the misery of Hualou.
It's just that the lady is too difficult to get along with, so now that the owner has changed, she doesn't think it's a bad thing.
As a woman, she also wants to stay together forever.
But as a weak woman, she was unable to resist fate and could only go with the flow.
She had already thought about it, everything about her was not her fault, it was all her fate.
…
The other side.
Yamazaki went to the archway to look for Shandai, and he found her after searching three places. She was still at the card table and had not come down.
Blushing and thick-necked, he was yelling at someone. Looking at the pile of money and banknotes on the table in front of him, it goes without saying that he probably didn't eat dinner either.
Yamazaki waited for her to finish this round, waiting for more than half an hour.
Finally, when someone had lost all his money and had the opportunity to replace him, he quickly went up to accuse him and said, "Everyone, something happened at home. I'm really sorry!"
Amid everyone's dissatisfied complaints, Shan Dai was taken away.
Originally, it would be unethical to just run away after winning money!
…
It's almost Hai hour (almost nine o'clock in the evening).
The brother and sister found a roadside barbecue stall, cut a rack of roasted lamb chops, added some roasted vegetables and bread from the sheep's belly, and ate at the roadside stall.
What I drank was coarse tea, which was just right to get rid of the greasiness.
It was dark and rainy, and the wind penetrated the lantern, causing the firelight to sway, adding to the eerie feeling.
Of course, this is from Yamazaki's perspective, and perhaps from the perspective of others, the shadows are an interesting thing.
…
There were a lot of people in the shed, and they talked a lot.
Yamazaki did not tell the plan, but wrote it on the back of Shandai's hand.
The more Shandai listened, the happier she became. Jianghu was more fun than at home.
By the time I finished eating, it was already late at night.
The rented-back courtyard was given a makeover and put on night clothes.
When I came out after waiting for a while, there were no more pedestrians on the street.
Rain affects hearing, but if you are affected, others will be affected as well.
And when dark clouds accumulate, the moon is dark and the wind is high, it is advantageous for people like them who do bad things secretly.
