Chapter 479: Living to Eighty
The residence of Minister Chen.
After waking up, Chen Jiakun wanted to fight Yunyi, but he was scolded by his grandfather Chen Guodong, who always doted on him. In the end, he could only hate Yunyi even more in his heart.
Yunyi didn't know, and even if she did, she wouldn't care. So many people hate her, who does Chen Jiakun think he is?
"What a tragedy!" Madam Chen Huo was heartbroken over her eldest grandson, holding Chen Jiakun and wiping away her tears. "What kind of person is Fang Yunyi? How dare she hit my Kun'er? Old man, it's one thing not to avenge Kun'er, but why are you being so mean to him? He's the only remaining member of our Chen family."
Although the second wife's brother-in-law also has sons and grandsons, they are all mentally challenged. In the end, wouldn't he have to rely on her, his precious grandson?
Chen Jiakun nestled in his grandmother's arms, tears streaming down his face, and said, "Grandma, you have to stand up for me!"
Chen Guodong frowned: "Don't spoil him."
"How could you spoil my precious grandson?" Madam Chen rolled her eyes at Chen Guodong. "You're really getting worse with age. You, a dignified Minister, are actually being manipulated by a little girl. What can I say to you?"
"That girl is really strange."
"Even if she's wicked, she's still just a girl. If she were really that powerful, would Sun Qingli have sold her off?" Chen Huoshi said dismissively.
"But Ruier..."
“Chen Rui is just a coincidence.” Chen Huo interrupted her husband. “She was probably already in bed long enough to wake up even without treatment. She just happened to be lucky.” Even if she didn’t wake up and died, it wouldn’t have anything to do with her. She was just a minor relative.
Chen Guodong fell silent. After all, Confucius did not speak of strange phenomena, physical prowess, disorder, or spirits, and he did not believe in the concept of summoning spirits. As for the other party's claim of having ghosts around him, he now thought it was probably a prank.
"Alright, my birthday is in a few days. I'll throw a banquet and invite that girl over too. I'll give her a good talking-to then," Chen Huoshi decided.
A wicked glint flashed in Chen Jiakun's eyes. Once that wretched girl arrived, he would take her to bed, then have a few servants gang rape her, and see what she would have to be so smug about.
In the guest courtyard, after Yu Lan returned, she found Chen Bo Niang and told her what Yun Yi had said: "Master, what do you think?"
"Father, Mother." Chen Rui entered at that moment.
Since we were staying at someone else's house, we didn't have our own courtyard; instead, we all stayed in the guest courtyard, and there were enough rooms anyway.
"Why did you get up?" Yu Lan hurriedly went over and supported Chen Rui's arm.
Chen Rui, who had been full of energy, quickly became weak: "Mother, I've been lying down for too long, and my body is stiff. Eldest brother... Yunyi said that I can slowly get up and move around, so I can recover faster."
"Don't be reckless."
"Mother, I know, I won't act recklessly." Chen Rui sat down. "Father, Mother, what were you talking about just now?"
"us……"
"Don't ask questions like a child," Chen Bonian interrupted his wife.
"Alright, I'm getting married soon, I'm not a child anymore." Chen Rui pouted, feeling a little aggrieved. "Besides, Boss Yun is really amazing. Do you know what I saw? I saw a ghost messenger. He's very close to Boss Yun, otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to come back."
Chen Bonian frowned. How come this is getting more and more outrageous?
"Really?" Yu Lan's eyes widened in surprise. "Is she really that amazing?"
"It's true! I was about to be reincarnated, and Meng Po even handed me the soup. She went over and snatched the soup away, then pulled me back. The ghost messengers kept calling her 'Your Highness the Princess' when they saw her."
"A princess?" Yu Lan's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. "She's... a princess from the underworld?"
"Anyway, as soon as she told me to come back, the Night Wanderer crossed my name off the Book of Life and Death and even extended my lifespan, saying that I would live to be eighty years old."
In this day and age, it's rare for people to live to seventy; she'll be content if she lives to eighty.
"That's wonderful." Yu Lan was even more convinced now.
Although Chen Bonian still had doubts, they were not as strong as before.
"Brother Nian, hurry up and find our sons and tell them to go back immediately." Yu Lan looked at Chen Bonian anxiously.
"But……"
“Brother Nian, it’s better to believe it’s true.” Yu Lan grabbed Chen Bonian’s hand. “I would rather my sons be unsuccessful than not be healthy.”
Chen Bonian sighed, "Alright." Then he ordered someone to call his two sons.
“I was thinking that even though we’re not leaving for the time being, it’s still inconvenient to live here. The yard I bought is already tidied up, so let’s move out today.”
Yu Lan was the eldest daughter of the Yu family in Yanzhou Prefecture. When she got married, she had a grand wedding procession with a large dowry. Moreover, she received a share of the Yu family's shops, and her annual dividends were substantial, so she was not short of money.
Otherwise, Yunyi wouldn't have received a shop as a thank-you gift in addition to silver notes.
You should know that even the worst shop in the East Market costs tens of thousands of taels, let alone a medium-sized shop, which would cost at least thirty thousand taels.
“Okay.” Chen Bonian nodded. “I’ll go tell my brother right away.”
Chen Rui smiled. It was good that her parents were so sensible. However, she was also a little disappointed. She had originally planned to compete with the eldest son in dealing with difficult people, but there was no room for her to show her skills. Fortunately, she was about to marry into the Third Prince's mansion, and then she would probably be able to put her talents to good use.
Chu Family Village.
An Xingze looked at Hua Manlou, somewhat bewildered: "What did you say?"
“Young Master, Master said you should come to my place to recuperate, it’s not convenient here.” Hua Manlou looked at the unharmed young master, his eyes reddening with emotion. “But to outsiders, you’ll be one of our henchmen.”
"Big brother?" An Xingze could only look at his older brother.
"The eldest young master is going too. From now on, the eldest young master will be the doctor in our brothel."
An Xingmian's lips twitched slightly: "The young lady must have her reasons for making such arrangements, we should just obey." They didn't have a better place to go at the moment.
An Xingze could only nod: "Okay." Anyway, he had been Han Lian'er's bodyguard before, and now he was just a thug in a brothel, so there was nothing he couldn't adapt to.
While everyone was out preparing the carriage, Yun Hong found the two brothers and said, "My young lady said that she can't save you for nothing. She needs you to do things for her. You certainly don't want to eat for free, right?"
"What is it?" An Xingmian immediately became wary.
"Don't be so nervous, we're definitely doing something meaningful." Yun Hong smiled. "How about learning about the Flying Eagle Intelligence Team?"
"What team?"
“It’s a spy team,” Yun Hong said in a low voice. “They help my young lady gather intelligence. It’s newly formed, so if you join, you’ll be considered veterans.”
