Reborn as a Merchant Girl, the General's Beloved

It was only at this moment that Annan realized that when Yuan Yi told Yuan Fu to be at ease, it was not just a polite reminder.

His sister is really gifted. She is not only quick in action but also extremely bold.

She guessed that Xiaofu would do something strange, but she didn't expect it to happen so soon. She had just told Anan last night that she had heard that Master Jinyun was in Xinyun Manor on a small island outside the city, but she dared to break into someone's mountain gate at night before dawn.

Speaking of Xinyun Manor, Annan had some impression of it.

This matter has to start with the placement of the dowry. Su Cheng was ordered to purchase farms, and he was indeed quite skillful in doing things. In just half a year, he bought quite a few farms around Yongning Wei.

Xinyun Manor is far away from the city, built around the mountains, covering an area of ​​more than a hundred acres. Su Cheng liked the best farmland in the manor, which was suitable for growing rice, so he was willing to exchange it for two fertile manors in the city. His sincerity was great, but the head of the manor was a stubborn person and refused to agree.

Su Cheng was thinking that he still had to grow food to be self-sufficient, so he promised a lot of money. However, the more money he offered, the more stubborn the other party became. In the end, he even kicked Su Cheng and his people out.

During this year, Su Cheng was traveling in Yongning Guard. Almost everyone knew that he was from the Governor's Office, and everyone was polite to him. However, the people from Xinyun Villa not only attacked him directly, but also showed disdain and refused to pay any attention to him afterwards.

Anan guessed that there must be a reason behind this, so when Su Cheng wanted to report to the police, she suppressed the matter.

Although Su Cheng was a little confused at first, he gradually let it go.

Yesterday she only thought that no matter which manor, Su Cheng would be able to help. Now she heard from Banxia that Yuan Fu went to Xinyun Manor and found an empty place to climb over the wall, but she was caught and tied up while she was still on the wall.

She had a splitting headache.

This Xinyun Manor is not simple. Originally, they lived in peace with each other with gods behind them, but now, they have to clash head-on.

Although Yuan Fu is not an expert, she is smart and agile.

Then again, considering the huge Xinyun Manor, there was no negligence at all that night, and the speed with which Xiaofu was caught was really eye-opening.

Bai Shao was the only one left in the room. She was so frightened when she heard what was said that she trembled all over and cried along with Ban Xia. She kept talking but could not come up with any idea.

Annan ordered his men to ask the two housekeepers at the second gate who claimed to be "know-it-alls" about Xinyun Manor and Jinyun, but after waiting for a long time, there was no news at all.

Seeing that the sun was getting dark, Annan knew he could not wait any longer, so he changed into light clothes, went to the city gate, paid for a small carriage, and went straight to Xinyun Manor.

The sky was high and the wind was strong, making the path steep and difficult to walk on.

The carriage had only reached halfway point after its bumpy ride when it suddenly started to rain. The rain got heavier and heavier, so the carriage had to stop.

The driver's raincoat could not keep out the heavy rain, and the horses were also panicked. He looked pale and said with a trembling voice, "Girl, don't dare to go any further! In this weather and on this journey, I'm afraid that not only will my livelihood be ruined here, but I'll also lose my life!"

Then he refused to drive the car forward no matter what, but just helped her point out a corner where Xinyun Manor seemed to be in front of her, and kindly left a paper umbrella for her.

The rain was pouring down and the paper umbrella was easily broken. Annan barely held up the half-broken paper and walked along the muddy path, one foot high and one foot low.

She underestimated the speed of the mountain road. The farm that seemed right in front of her took her two hours to walk to. When she finally reached the door, it was already nightfall.

The gate of Zhuangzi was not big, only about two meters wide. There were no stone lions or plaques in front of the gate. A group of servants gathered in front of the gate and were eating dinner in an orderly manner.

Each person was eating a bowl of hot tea and a portion of wheat cake.

This meal is strangely familiar.

She put away her broken umbrella, huddled under the eaves, rubbed the mud off her shoes on the grass, and squatted down to squeeze the water off her skirt with her hands.
