Chapter 166 Change

An hour later, Master Xian'er closed his eyes and slowly exhaled.

Xian'er stepped forward with great expectation: "Master, what did you see?"

"A young man with a handsome face."

"A handsome face? A man?"

"Something must have happened to Yue Haitang in that cottage. There is a part in this person's memory that Yue Haitang was seriously injured. She must not know kung fu. Everyone in the cottage thought that Yue Haitang didn't know kung fu! She must have been there for a while

She doesn’t know martial arts! But that night she suddenly recovered!"

Xian'er heard this in confusion and was filled with doubts, but when she saw her master's brows furrowed and silent in his own world, he didn't ask any more questions.

The master was still talking to himself: "It's that little man. Yue Haitang has a close relationship with that little man. There is a section in this person's memory where he saw that little man exchanging martial arts with Yue Haitang. It's probably

Something is wrong here! That little man..."

Master Xian'er was locked in a deep frown and kept emphasizing the three words "little man".

At night in Xiaoqingshan, Master Xian'er may not have noticed Xia Shang, but Xian'er did.

That night, only Xia Shang was worthy of the word "little man".

"Could it be him?" Xian'er couldn't help but murmured.

"Who?!" Master Xian'er was very serious.

"Master, I'm not sure. If that person is really... No, no, that person doesn't know kung fu at all. How can he help Fairy Shuiyue recover her kung fu?"

"This matter is not trivial. Even if there is a one in ten thousand chance, we cannot let it go. Since you know that person, you should go and find out. I have other things to investigate."

Xian'er's eyes lit up: "Master, do you mean that I don't need to be confined anymore?"

"If you can make a great contribution in this matter, I can let go of the troubles you caused in the past, and you will be rewarded heavily!"

"As you command!"



"Ms. sir, what did you tell grandpa? What deal did you make? Is there really no problem with dad?"

In the car, Qin Huairou finally couldn't help the doubts in her heart and asked.

Xia Shang had a short conversation with the old man in the small bamboo house. No one knew what they said in the house, but they heard that the conversation was very pleasant and they seemed to have reached some kind of consensus.

Xia Shang lifted the curtain, looked at Yulin County getting closer and closer, and chuckled: "It's just an ordinary transaction between families. It's just that I think your Qin family is weird... I have heard some history,

I heard that seventy years ago, when the Hua Dynasty was established, some of the founding fathers gradually passed away, but your Qin family is still alive. This cannot be explained by the old man's long life. The old man lived five or six years longer than other founding fathers.

Ten years, don’t you think this is weird?”

"strangeness?"

Qin Huairou didn't understand. She said to herself that she had grown up in the Qin family for more than ten years and had never seen anything strange in the family.

Before Qin Huairou could recall it, Xia Shang spoke again: "You don't have to think about this carefully. Maybe I'm overthinking it, maybe there's nothing behind it. The old man's mouth is very strict and he didn't say anything. But I'm still willing

Let’s take a gamble. Huairou, do you know how much money your family makes from selling books and wine?”

Regarding the accounts, Qin Huairou was not confident and always felt that there would be errors in them: "There are 70,000 taels of silver notes in Tonghui Bank, three boxes of gold in the winery's treasury, and 78,000 to 80,000 taels of silver in cash in the family warehouse."

"What about one hundred thousand taels?"

"I made a lot of money and saved a lot at home."

"After I get back, I'll put together one hundred thousand taels and send it to the Qin family. It's said to be a thank-you gift from the Xia family to the old man of the Qin family."

"Ah?" Qin Huairou's eyes widened, "Ms. sir... there is no need to thank you for Xiao Qingshan, even if you say thank you, it won't be enough..."

"You don't understand, just do as I say."

"But……"

"It's nothing. What do we make money for? Isn't it just for spending? Your husband-in-law is good at making money, but relying on your own connections is not enough. Our family lacks a network and a big enough relationship.

Network. It costs money to build this network. If you want this network to be strong, you need a lot of money."

Qin Huairou nodded in understanding: "Oh."

During the conversation, the driver had already entered Yulin County, and the familiar air with the aroma of wine came into their nostrils, making the people in the county drunk.

The emergence of Wuliangye has brought many changes to Yulin County, attracting a group of wealthy businessmen and a group of drinkers, and also bringing more jobs to the people of Yulin.

Development is happening right before our eyes, and Yulin County is getting better and better day by day.

There are no longer so many beggars in the county government office. The county government office has built new walls and the government offices are also being renovated. Many vendors who come from nowhere have added a lot of scenery to the streets and alleys of Yulin County. The people on the streets are also

There are more people in the county no longer go straight to Yangzhou when going out for fun.

Of course, the biggest change is the pedestrians always carrying drinks on the road, which is a unique symbol of Yulin County.

Xia Shang looked at the scene along the way, and Qin Huairou also looked at it.

The young couple's expressions were exactly the same, one proud and the other happy.

After a while, we arrived home.

When Xia Shang saw the front door of his house, he almost thought he had gone to the wrong place. The courtyard wall that used to be only a high fence was gone. A ten-foot-high red lacquered courtyard wall made of jujube burnt bricks surrounded the courtyard tightly and brand new.

There is a large gilt plaque hanging on the open courtyard, with the word "Xia Mansion" on it. There is a couplet engraved on the doorposts on both sides -

“A gentleman is good at drinking and drinking well.

Drunkards are greedy for drink and shameful reputation."

At the door, a servant dressed as a servant was sweeping the floor. Xia Shang vaguely remembered that he was the servant who had just arrived.

Xia Shang and Qin Huairou got out of the car, and Xiaoyue came out to welcome them. She looked at the young master with tears in her eyes, and for a while she expressed her bitter hope.

Being pestered by the little maid, Xia Shang entered the courtyard.

The changes in our home have been so drastic that people are speechless.

The ground of the rubble-filled courtyard has been paved with oversized three-foot-square blue bricks, which are laid flat and neatly. Two rows of potted plants are neatly arranged, all the way to the main hall door. There are gardens on both sides of the main hall along the road, bypassing the hall and entering the backyard.

The living room is divided into east and west wings, facing each other from a distance. There are layers of hanging flower doors in the middle, and there are hand-painted verandahs connecting each other. The layout of the courtyard has been properly arranged, and it has the appearance of a large family, but some details are still there.

It needed to be added, but it looked perfect, which made Xia Shang stunned.

Looking at her husband's expression, Qin Huairou smiled sweetly: "I was worried about my husband a few days ago and hoped that my husband would be in a good mood when he saw the new house when he came back, so he anxiously hired some workers to do the work, but it's a pity that it hasn't been completed yet. No.

Do you know if your husband likes it?"

"I like it! I like it very much! But I wonder if there is a big bed in the wing?"

"..." How could Qin Huairou not know the evil in Xianggong's belly? She was so ashamed that she blushed and said for a long time, "Xianggong doesn't have a concubine, so what do you want with that big bed? Besides, I don't allow Xianggong to do anything random.

.If there are younger sisters in the family in the future, if the younger sisters are willing, my husband will come and play with them."

"Madam, where are you talking about? What are you talking about? I only want you."

"My lord, I am serious about this! When my lord is away, I have been making arrangements for myself, and I have promised my lord a house and a concubine."

Xia Shang's jaw dropped to the ground: "What?" (To be continued)
