153 Spirit Treasure Rat
The Wang family had bought a house in town, and the family was also divided into several groups.
Wang Chuanfu did not intend to go to town. There were still so many plots of land at home, and someone had to manage them.
It was not like the family would have to starve after moving to the town. Someone had to provide the food at home.
Old Madam Wang planned to accompany Little Ah Yu in the town and help to set up the shop at the same time. Otherwise, if she let those silly boys at home do it, they would probably lose money.
Wang Chuangui was going to the town as well. Old Madam Wang was exerting the greatest pressure on him now, asking him to participate in the junior Imperial Examination next year.
The students of the Dachang Kingdom would take the Imperial Examination once every two years. Coincidentally, this was a non-exam year. He could take this time to prepare for next year’s exam.
Wang Chuangui expressed that he was really under a lot of pressure.
Wang Chuanyuan wanted to go to the shop in town to try running it. In the past, he did not have the guts to think about it. Now that the shop belonged to his family and there was no rent, even if the shop did not do well, they would not suffer a lot of loss.
He’d always wanted to give it a try.
As for Wang Chuanman, he actually wanted to stay in the village, but his daughter was about to go to the town, so Wang Chuanman naturally wanted to follow.
In the end, everyone discussed and let the brothers take turns to stay in town. In the first year, they let Wang Chuanfu stay at home. Wang Dalang was also at home to help learn how to manage the fields.
Wang Chuangui was preparing for the exam, and Wang Chuanyuan would manage the shop. Wang Chuanman planned to find a job in town. If he couldn’t find one, he would return to the village.
Other than Wang Dalang, the grandsons all followed them to town.
Actually, Wang Sanlang and Wang Silang originally wanted to stay in the village and learn martial arts from Chi Jia. In the end, Qin Huai also wanted to go to town. Wasn’t this a coincidence?
In a short moment, the Wang Family home became deserted.
The originally lively family was only left with a few people.
Of course, they were not ready to go over yet.
On the second day, Old Madam Wang brought all her daughters-in-law and sons to town to get to know the townsfolk and clean the house and shop.
The shop was fine, but no one had lived in that house for a long time. It would be a little difficult to clean it.
Madam Ma was a neat person. After packing up the dirty things in the house, she brought them outside to throw them away.
When she returned, her face was pale.
Old Madam Wang asked her, “What’s wrong? Did you see a ghost outside? That face looks like it has been painted. It’s so pale. Who are you trying to scare?”
Madam Ma stammered, not knowing if she should say it.
“If you have something to say, just say it. Don’t stutter with me here.” Old Madam Wang pounded her waist. This job had tired her out, and even her temper was bad.
Madam Ma said in a low voice, “I went out to throw something just now and met an old lady. She’s a neighbor. She said that this house is a little strange. It seems that some people have drowned here...”
Old Madam Wang’s expression did not change. “Why? Did she say that someone had died here?”
She didn’t say that.
But that was what it meant.
Wouldn’t this make the new house look very unlucky?
“From 800 years ago, every inch of the ground you stepped on was stained with human blood. If you dig deeper, who knows how many bones you can dig out. Are you afraid just like that?” Old Madam Wang sneered. “You’ve never done anything wrong in your life, so you don’t have to be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door in the middle of the night. If others want to talk, let them. Just don’t listen.”
Old Madam Wang did not believe in haunted houses the most. If those wealthy families also cared about the death of someone in a house, they could forget about living there.
Which house had not had a few deaths?
Then if thousands of people died in the palace, wouldn’t the Emperor and Empress have to leave?
Initially, Madam Feng was panicking, afraid that they had bought a haunted house. Her heart was still thumping.
In the end, hearing what her mother-in-law said, it seemed to make sense.
Then why was she panicking?
Madam Feng waved away the uncomfortable feeling in her heart and hurried back to work.
On the other hand, Old Madam Wang went to the courtyard to take a look. The pool was indeed a little deep. She didn’t know what had been planted inside. The water was dark and didn’t have any aesthetics.
Old Madam Wang instructed Wang Chuanfu, “Eldest, come over and clean this pool. Dig a hole and let the water out first.”
Little Ah Yu naturally followed. She originally wanted to see where Qin Huai lived, but Qin Huai refused to tell her, so she could only return home.
After Little Ah Yu left, Qin Huai looked at Chi Jia. “Where’s the house?”
Chi Jia was a little embarrassed.
Unexpectedly, when Young Master heard that the Wang family was moving yesterday, he immediately expressed that he wanted to move too. Where could he find a suitable house in a short period of time?
Since they were buying a house, they naturally had to buy something slightly more comfortable.
The house they had built in Old Wang’s house was still quite exquisite.
Unfortunately, they had yet to live there for long.
Chi Jia wiped his sweat and could only bring Qin Huai to the Nanhe Inn.
“Let’s make do here for the night first. I’ll ask a few more agents tomorrow.”
That was the only way.
After a while, Chi Jia heard the Young Master whisper, “Don’t tell her.”
Don’t tell what? Tell who?
It took Chi Jia a long time to react. Oh, he couldn’t tell Little Ah Yu. The Young Master had followed her over eagerly and did not even have a place to stay.
Chi Jia thought to himself, “From the looks of it, Young Master’s body has recovered. Then will he be following Little Ah Yu around in the future?”
...
The Wang Family was developing very quickly. Perhaps they would have to go to the county city, prefecture city, or even Wanning City in the future.
What if Little Ah Yu wanted to travel around in the future? What if she wanted to live in this city a little and in another city for a while? What would happen if they followed her without fixing a place of residence?
He had to prepare the houses for the Young Master early.
He did not want to be in a situation as awkward as today.
Hence, Chi Jia decided in his heart that he would buy a few houses for Qin Huai in other places.
Chi Jia told Qin Huai this thought.
Qin Huai thought for a moment and asked, “How much money do I have left?”
“I’ve kept everything that Madam and the others have given you all these years for Young Master. It should be enough to buy a dozen houses.”
A dozen or so was too little. The Dachang Kingdom had 16 counties, and each county controlled 24 cities. Every city had 10 to 15 towns. In that case, there were many houses to buy.
Who knew if she would go to those towns in the future?
As for the problem of money-
...
Qin Huai raised his hand. “Give me the brush and ink.”
It was time to write a letter to his mother.
Half a month later, a beautiful woman received a letter with only a few words.
“I’m short of money. Requesting help.”
The beautiful woman: ???
Where had he gone? Had he spent all that money?
The Wang Family’s house was between Nanhe Main Street and Nanhe Second Street. It was about seven minutes away from their shop. It was not bad.
As soon as Little Ah Yu stepped into the courtyard, she was pounced on by the lamb and rolled on the ground.
“Little lamb, I’m going to be angry!” Seeing that there was actually a lot of mud on her body, Little Ah placed her hands on her hips and looked angry.
Every time Ah Yu went out, the little lamb would follow her, but it would also be called back by Old Madam Wang. This time, it followed her.
The lamb was especially excited and ran around the courtyard. In the end, it accidentally fell into the pool.
Everyone was about to save her when the little lamb felt that Little Ah Yu had returned. It jumped out of the pool and pounced at Little Ah Yu, its entire body wet.
Little Ah Yu was really about to cry from anger.
Her bag was dirty!
Little Ah Yu quickly took off her bag and placed it aside.
In the end, a fruit rolled out of her bag.
Before she could pick it up, something suddenly ran over from the pool and snatched the fruit away. In an instant, it disappeared.
“Ah, my fruit!” Little Ah Yu exclaimed.
[It’s a Spirit Treasure Rat. Kid, tell everyone to catch it!]
[It’s hiding in a rat hole and nibbling on your fruit.]
