HCB Chapter 142 The Dirty Yard...
Chapter 142 The Dirty Yard...
After a while, Xiao Jue, holding Xiao Tangxin, took a look around and found that there seemed to be not enough rooms, so it was not feasible for him to move in.
He also discovered that the woman not far away was staring at him with resentment, as if she could eat him alive in the next second!
Faced with two difficult problems, Xiao Jue was caught in a dilemma for a moment. He didn't dare to take any more risks, because if he wasn't careful, it would easily backfire and end up with nothing.
He also planned to marry the woman into the Marquis of Jingyuan's Mansion within a month!
So he can't make any mistakes and must act with caution.
"Don't worry, Ah Cai... everything that happened in the past is over. If you don't want to mention it again, I won't ask. I only care about our future. As long as you are willing to give me a chance, I will definitely treat you and the child twice as well..."
Xiao Jue's words were so sincere that even he was almost moved. However, Lin Acai remained unmoved and kept a stern face: "Before I swing the broom again, you'd better get out of here quickly. Do you think you are filming a Qiong Yao drama? Get out now!"
Qiong Yao drama! ?
What kind of drama is it?
I've never heard this woman humming before. Could it be that this song is only sung by people from Xinghua Village?
Xiao Jue's thoughts wandered a little, but he was soon pulled back by the reality before him.
Seeing that her warning had no effect on the man, Lin Acai simply picked up a broom and waved it angrily to chase the man away.
"...Acai, calm down and don't be so rude. We'll leave now..."
"..."
What's happening here?
I've been with the general for so long, but this is the first time I've experienced this kind of treatment.
More than a dozen strong soldiers who fought bravely on the battlefield did not dare to fight back. They retreated step by step and directly retreated to the gate of the courtyard.
It's kind of funny and amusing.
But there was no other way. Even the prince had to endure it, so how could they dare to act rashly?
I just saw it with my own eyes. This woman is the mother of the Crown Prince's child. She will marry into the Marquis's Mansion and become the Crown Prince's Consort soon.
What an incredible identity!
After the huge crowd was driven out of the gate, Lin Acai waved her hand and ordered Tian Xi to close the door quickly.
After an exciting operation, the bolt was finally inserted.
As a result, when Lin Acai turned her head, she found Bai Jing, the fish that had escaped the net.
There was nothing else to say. She didn't even need to open her mouth. The next second, the royal sister stepped forward and pushed the man out of the yard.
The master and servant finally met outside the courtyard gate. They stared at each other for a while, neither of them willing to give in.
At this moment, I suddenly heard the voice of a woman scolding a child not far away.
"You're not listening again, are you? Mom has told you so many times that this yard is not clean and you shouldn't go in. Why can't you listen to me?"
While scolding, the woman caught up with the boy in front, grabbed his ear and pulled him out from the gate of the next courtyard.
"Mom, I get it, please let go!" When the boy begged for mercy, the mother and daughter had already walked up to the crowd.
In a daze, he suddenly noticed the attire of Xiao Jue and his group. Thinking they were police officers investigating a case, he curiously glanced into Lin Acai's yard.
"Bai Jing...did you hear that?"
"What did you hear? ...Master?"
Xiao Jue looked at Bai Jing with disdain. Isn't he usually quite smart? Why is he so stupid now?
"I'll go to the nearby real estate agency and ask how much the owner of this yard is willing to pay. I want to buy it right away!"
"..."
Is the prince crazy?
Didn’t he hear the woman just say that the yard was not clean?
While Bai Jing was speechless, Xiao Jue had already pushed open the door and led the soldiers into the unclean yard that the woman had mentioned.
Because no one has entered this yard for several years, the door lock and bolt have long become decorations.
The group looked around the yard inside and out in a short time.
It was indeed in a dilapidated state.
The layout of the yard was similar to that of the one next door, but the situation inside was simply unbearable.
"Young Master... do you really want to buy this yard? Would you like to reconsider it?" Bai Jing still refused to give up.
Xiao Jue: "Stop making noise! Hurry up and do as this prince wants..."
"Yes...Young Master." Bai Jing sighed, accepted the order, and walked away dejectedly.
The remaining soldiers finally got their chance to use their skills. Some fetched water, some swept the yard, and they were all busy under the general's orders.
Not long after, Bai Jing and a few soldiers found the pawnshop they had been to before. The owner and manager of the pawnshop were confused and terrified, thinking that this group of people failed to find the yard and came to cause trouble for them!
As a result, after listening carefully and learning that their master wanted to buy the courtyard with a legend, the nerves in their hearts that had just relaxed became tense again.
He shook his head and refused to sell it no matter what.
"Sir... please be kind and don't make things difficult for our little shop. I've already told you that this yard is not clean. You should check other yards!"
If this yard was taken a fancy by other customers today, as the owners of the dental clinic, there is no way they would turn down such a business that came to their doorstep.
The problem is that the owner of this courtyard is too noble. He is the eldest son of Marquis Jingyuan and the brother-in-law of the current emperor. If something really happens after he moves into this courtyard, he will no longer be able to run this dental clinic.
We really can't take this risk!
As a result, after Bai Jing found the prince and explained the situation, the prince went directly to the owner of the pawnshop.
"How much is this yard worth? I'll pay double the price!"
"Bai Jing, prepare the pen and ink!"
"In addition, I, Prince Xiao, have made this clear today. I bought this courtyard willingly and it has nothing to do with anyone else. If any problems or accidents arise, I will bear them alone and will not implicate anyone else."
After Bai Jing finished writing, Xiao Jue signed and sealed it directly, and put his own fingerprint on it.
The owner and manager of the pawnbroker shop didn't dare to breathe the entire time. When had they ever seen such a scene before? But to be honest, this Prince Xiao was worthy of being the only son of Marquis Jingyuan. His style of doing things was comparable to that of Marquis Jingyuan when he was young, or even worse.
"Okay! Since Master Xiao has said so, I have no worries. However, I cannot accept this double amount of money.
It is said that this yard is not clean. It has been listed in my shop for five years and has not been sold. Usually, no one even asks about it. So, my lord, you just need to give me the original price. "
Although the owner of the pawn shop was looking forward to making a fortune every day, he did not forget the original intention of doing business - a gentleman loves money but gets it in a proper way.
He won't take a single cent that isn't his.
"Okay... In that case, let's do everything according to your instructions, Boss."
Xiao Jue made the final decision, and in less than a quarter of an hour, the sales document was completed, which he put in his arms with joy.
"Bai Jing... bring back the craftsmen who previously renovated the small building and have them repair the courtyard and build a small building exactly the same as the one in our mansion."
"..."
"Okay... My Lord, I will do it right away."
The Crown Prince is indeed the Crown Prince.
There are endless ideas and they are so varied!
However, Master, are you really sure that you can marry Miss Lin into the Marquis' Mansion by doing this? ? ?
I'm really worried about the prince.
