483 Narrow Road Encounter

lood Are you hurt!""Here, just a scratch." My brother lifted his left hand.He had a cut on the back of his left hand, made by a dagger. It wasn't deep and had already stopped bleeding. It was probably...As soon as Aunt Lin mentioned introducing us to potential patrons, I quickly shook my head and said, "No thanks. We're young and new here, and we don't want to draw too much attention to ourselves. If we become too prominent, it might offend the local elders."

Aunt Lin curled her lips into a smile and said, "Don't rush to refuse. In this imperial capital, some people you meet could be very helpful. Help this person, and when it comes to seeing the 'Grand Elder,' things might be arranged sooner."

Who is this big shot anyway

I feel like the water is deep in Beijing, I'm a little hesitant.

Auntie Lin smiled and said, "Rest assured, I won't ask you to do something like stand on the wrong side... You have to know, in this imperial capital's upper echelon, the most important thing is not to stand on the wrong side. Otherwise, you'll never see the light of day."

She pulled out a cigarette, and her bodyguard immediately came over to light it for her. Her gestures revealed an air of rebellious high society.

To be honest, I didn't expect you to solve it. I was a bit negligent towards you before and hid some things, so I apologize for that... But I don't have any ill intentions, you can rest assured about that—Yan Qin and Yan Huan are on good terms with you, and I have no intention of offending those two little ancestors... especially Yan Huan."

She smiled wryly: "Yan Huan, that boy, I wouldn't dare to offend him. He's the real face-thick and heartless one. If he doesn't want to harm people, he's like a spring breeze and rain, a good friend worth befriending; if he wants to harm people, well... I certainly don't want to be on his bad side."

I was a little surprised. How come even my own aunt is afraid of Lin Yanhuan

Lin Yanhuan isn't scary, it's just that his mind is too deep, making it hard to know what he's thinking. He's somewhat unfathomable.

Our ancestors said that wealth and honor are sought in danger. We now dare not seek wealth and honor, only to step by step have the ability to protect ourselves, but we didn't expect that climbing up would be so difficult.

“You can ask Yan Huan about this, he definitely supports you doing it... With his status, it’s inconvenient for him to help anyone with connections, because he’s the Crown Prince now~ Helping anyone make connections will make people think he's receiving huge bribes.” Lin Gu Gu muttered.

"Just consider this as an apology and compensation. I'll connect you with someone, and this could be a huge favor for you to sell."

I hesitated and said, "Let me discuss this with my brother. Most of the family matters are handled by him. He's smarter than me."

"Well, he is quite clever... I heard he dared to provoke my sister-in-law in public Hahaha, she's going to be the First Lady one day, he's awfully bold, I like that." Aunt Lin gracefully brushed off some ash.

"He didn't provoke anyone, he just made it clear to Mrs. Lin that he wouldn't do anything that would harm their family relationship." I quickly explained, stressing that my brother wasn't being rude. He handed Lin Yanqin over to her mother properly after all.

“That's why Mu Yunfan is smart,” Aunt Lin said with a smile, squinting her eyes. “What kind of person is my sister-in-law She has seen all kinds of people: wealthy young masters, industry tycoons, scholars and literati, royal nobles, and even super-rich businessmen. Most of these young people are confident and arrogant. It’s rare to see a young man like Mu Yunfan who is both bold and understands the difference between right and wrong.”

“So she remembered Mu Yunfan, whether she acknowledged this matter or not. Yan Qin liked him herself, and the young man was good at measuring his words and actions. That was enough... Come on, being the son-in-law of the Lin family isn't easy, but once you become one... hehe... you know.” Aunt Lin smiled at me.

I muttered to myself: We didn't want to climb the Lin family tree, but Lin Yanqin just happens to suit my brother's taste, and she suits him more and more! That's why my brother likes her so much.

History is always astonishingly similar. I see that the unruly and dissolute young men from prestigious families are almost always subdued by a charming and intelligent heiress.

"Just bury this thing directly in a hole and be done with it." My brother frowned at the urn. "Do I have to set up an altar for her now"

I asked, "What about the fox head"

"In the backpack."

"Her ashes should be kept in the cemetery first, it's just a matter of money." I advised. "At least she was a national hero of that era."

My brother grumbled and went to find the cemetery manager. He found the cheapest corner on the columbarium wall and rented it for ten years.

"Ten years is considered the utmost kindness. Even if her bones turn to ashes, she'll still be able to cause trouble! Even as a ghost fairy, she only has one brain as her true self." My brother grumbled in a low voice.

I purse my lips, Jiang Qiyun still doesn't know what he has up his sleeve. The cunning of the immortals is too advanced, we can only figure it out step by step.

We chatted with Lin Yan in the car for a long time. Aunt Lin said that the person she was introducing us to was the son of a certain office director, and this young man was developing a high-end villa area. It is said that the feng shui here is very good, but he has encountered some troubles.

After we figured everything out, we got home just as the sky was lightening. My brother took me slowly to a breakfast stall at the mouth of our alley and bought us some food. He said to me, "Ordinary people are pretty good, especially those of us who don't lack money..."

We were carrying steamed buns and soy milk fritters, just about to reach our front door when something jumped down from above it and landed straight in my arms!

"Little imp! I'm holding the soy milk!" I quickly covered it with one hand.

Little Nibbles got all puffed up, and he didn't know what was going on. My brother reached out, grabbed him by the back of his neck, and carried him inside.

"What are you doing You're here" My brother asked with a smile.

Little Ni snarled, "Why do I have to sit in the warehouse and be locked in a cage!"

Pff...

“Who made you a pet Be content! Do you know how much effort it took to get you here! One slip-up and you'd be at the animal shelter!” My brother laughed, tossing it onto the ground: “Be good, don’t make a fuss. Next time when my brother-in-law comes back, I'll let you use the VIP channel!”

This morning, grandma and Dadabao came with the two children.

Dabo said to me, "Little Lady, I heard you've been getting bullied here"

“…a little, the local snake hasn't moved yet, just waiting to see us make a fool of ourselves.”

Dabao grumbled softly, "Little Lady, when a living person arrives in a new place, they have to first pay respects at the land temple and the City God Temple. I'm going to inquire around now and see what the customs are like here!"

> the earth, it would be a relief for both of us! I'm just afraid she'll be caught by our enemies or someone with ulterior motives!""...Are you worried about the centipede venom on her"Zhao Jie widened...
