Hu Kuidou stopped drinking and listened very carefully. Finally, he encouraged Manager Zhang and praised him for handling the matter properly. He was given ten days' leave and a hundred taels of silver, and he went to the accounting office to withdraw it. Manager Zhang knew that this was hush money, so he thanked his master for the reward and bowed down.
Hu Kuidou pondered for a long time and said to the maid who was pouring wine in his right hand: "Yueyaer, go and take a look -"
The maid put down the wine pot, stepped forward and picked up a piece of red gold, looked at it once, then picked up the golden bean and looked at it carefully, and reported to Hu Kui: "It is pure gold, not adulterated in the slightest, and the royal tribute is slightly smaller than this." It's not as good as this, it's the result of the magical power of the Immortal family, it's extremely rare."
Hu Kuidou raised his eyebrows and said, "Midas turns stone into gold? Isn't that a loss-making business?"
Yue Ya'er said: "Master, don't worry, Yinu maid It seems that the person who touched the stone has great magical powers. He must be a first-class earthly immortal. Even if these red gold have been circulated for hundreds of years, , still scorching and beautiful, and will not turn into stone."
Hu Kuidou said with a "haha" smile: "Yue Ya'er has a sharp eye and a golden tongue. It seems that this deal is very profitable... But will that other courtyard in the south of the city cause trouble?"
Yue Ya'er said: "Gongs and drums are playing in front of each other. Since I asked about the fox fairy and ghosts, he must have noticed it. However, the other party relies on his own methods and does not care about these trivial matters. I think it is appropriate to wait and see what happens. Turn stone into gold. Since it is so rare, if the master wants to form a good relationship, he might as well send someone to give him a generous gift and give him a few tips."
Hu Kuidou nodded and said: "That's right, that's right! Yue Ya'er, I'll leave this matter to you. Earthly immortals are not uncommon, but this "turning stone into gold" spell shouldn't be missed easily. "
Yue Ya'er agreed, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "I also ask the master to give me a 'cramp lock' to ensure nothing goes wrong." "
Hu Kuidou said "Hmm" and flicked his fingers, and a ray of green light flew out, circled several times, and fell into her palm obediently. Yue Ya'er recited a spell in a low voice, put away the "cramp lock", and returned to his master. He folded his sleeves and poured wine, greeting the master with all his heart, and never mentioned the matters discussed just now.
During the long night, Hu Kuidou went one after another and drank a thousand cups without getting drunk. He didn't have enough fun until the east turned white. Yue Mei'er and Yue Shao'er supported him into the inner house to rest. Although they are two delicate beauties, holding on to a rickety mountain of meat, they are walking extremely smoothly step by step.
Stable, unyielding. Yue Ya'er watched the three people leave, called the servants to clean up the leftovers, and sat alone on the railing of the flower hall, looking at the lotus flowers in the lake and thinking for a moment, and came up with an idea.
After tossing all night, Yue Ya'er showed no signs of fatigue. Seeing how bright the sky was, she ordered a little maid to go to the front house and invite Butler Du to come to the flower hall for a while. The three maids beside Hu Kuidou were of high status and were said to be given by the Rakshasa royal family. Their origins were quite mysterious. Butler Du did not dare to neglect them and hurried to the flower hall to obey his orders.
Yue Ya'er told him to prepare a good banquet on the table. The dishes did not need to be many, but they had to be exquisite and neat, with all colors and aromas. They were packed in food boxes and accompanied by two steady servants to a separate courtyard in the south of the city to greet the guests. . When Butler Du heard the word "Chengnan", his heart suddenly skipped a beat. He was an old member of Hu. Naturally, he knew the real reason why his master moved his family to the north of the city. The reason is that the other courtyard in the south of the city is the key that cannot be circumvented.
Although he is the great butler of Hu House, in charge of all internal and external affairs, and his family and life are tied to his master, and he will suffer both losses and prosperity, but Butler Du always feels that Hu Kuidou does not trust him, at least he does not confide in him. However, he was still loyal and had never had the idea of "traitoring his master". Others might not know, but he guessed that his master was inextricably linked to the Rakshasa royal family.
At three o'clock in the morning, Yue Ya'er took a carriage to the villa in the south of the city. He revisited his old place, and his heart was filled with waves.
When the four of them were ordered to come to Pingchuan City to serve the young master, Yue Long'er suffered a misfortune and her remains were buried underground in another courtyard. Over time, they actually caused trouble and became more and more serious. They alarmed the city lord and gave him a talisman to suppress it for the time being. Every half a year You must feed yourself with blood to ensure temporary peace. The city lord took action, originally thinking that he could get away with it once and for all, but he didn't expect that Yue Long'er was very picky about blood food, and would not touch cattle, sheep, or livestock. He blindly asked for human sacrifices. If he didn't get what he wanted, he would cause trouble and make peace in the south of the city.
Hu Kuidou secretly collected people and animals to sacrifice to Yue Long'er. After all, it was not a long-term solution. Yue Ya'er gave him an idea and bribed Ya Long'er.
People, rent the other courtyard in the south of the city to outsiders, and then buy people and animals from other places. The rent will be offset by the expenses. The business of the house will not be damaged, and the city owner can also have an explanation.
But I didn't expect that the person who rented the courtyard in the south of the city this time would be an Earth Immortal.
There is "cramp lock"
In hand, Yue Ya'er has no respect for the earthly immortals. Although immortals can gain immortality through cultivation, the means of killing may not be as satisfactory as expected. The Rakshasa Kingdom is fighting in all directions, and its only opponent is the Yaksha Kingdom. Both sides have a winner and a loser. After a fierce fight, it was not uncommon for the Earth Immortal to fall, and the Rakshasa royal family even enshrined several immortals.
Yue Yaer ordered his servants to carry the food box and wait nearby. He calmed down and went to knock on the door. After a while, a porter came out and agreed, but he was a simple-looking Xia man with gray hair, dark skin, and a gold seal on his cheekbones. Judging from the seal, it is a coolie brought back from the mine, who narrowly escaped death and had good luck. When the porter saw the flower-like beauty, he felt ashamed and stammered a few questions. Yue Yaer explained his intention, and he hurriedly entered to report.
After a while, a maid came out to greet her. Her clothes and decorations were ordinary. Although she didn’t have a very good appearance, she still had some touching colors. She clumsily welcomed Yue Yaer into the living room and saw her. Arrived at Bixiazi. Yue Ya'er ordered his servant to put down the food box and retreated to the courtyard to wait. He smiled and presented the master's congratulatory card and looked at it secretly. The more he thought about it, the more he couldn't see through it. He unconsciously became more vigilant in his heart.
Bixiazi read the congratulatory note, accepted the food box, was too lazy to write a reply, replied with a few words, rejected the person thousands of miles away, gave her a few golden beans, and sent her away. Yue Ya'er suddenly realized that she thought highly of herself, but in the eyes of the other party, she was just a humble maid. Even if she was favored by the master, even if she was above the steward, the maid was still a maid after all. After leaving Hu's house, she was still looked down upon by others, almost Just throw away a few golden beans, just like a hawker selling business.
Yue Ya'er gritted her teeth and endured it, then said goodbye and left. The maid sent her all the way out of the other courtyard, peeking at her dress in silk and satin, pearls and flower jewelry, and she was envious. Yue Ya'er patiently chatted with her for a few words and made up a routine. It turned out that she called her "Xia Fen", that the concierge was her father, and that there was an old woman working as a cook in the back kitchen. The three members of the family were taken care of by Mrs. Mi. Become a servant in another courtyard.
Yue Ya'er mentioned it intentionally or unintentionally. She heard that this villa is a famous "haunted house" in the south of the city. There are ghosts on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month. People who are not rich and powerful cannot suppress them. The owner must be careful. It is best to ask a guru to pray for blessings and eliminate disasters. Xia Fen was so frightened that his face changed. Finally, he met a kind master who was willing to pay the "ransom tax" for them. He must not let ghosts cause trouble and ruin their good life.
