Chapter 276: 276, your young aunt is a girl, huh? Chapter 276: 276, your young aunt is a girl, huh? “This estate belonged to a concubine from the previous County Magistrate’s family. The previous County Magistrate must have offended soone because he was stripped of his office and beheaded. This concubine, relying on the County Magistrate’s power, used to not hesitate in bullying others. Now, soone deliberately trapped them. Their son lost several thousand taels of silver in the gambling house, and with their family business targeted, they could only redy their deficit by selling the fine estate for a low price,” Ye Wenzheng explained, and only then did Ye Jiu understand.
As long as the land was fine, Ye Jiu was imdiately interested. She got up from the ground, dusted off the dirt from her clothes, and said, “Where is this place? Let’s go take a look.”
“It’s not far, that concubine is from our town, just a couple of villages away,” Ye Wenzheng responded.
“Right,” Ye Jiu had walked several steps before she rembered that she needed to make up an excuse to report to Mrs. He.
“Wait for a mont, I’ll go tell my mom before we leave,” Ye Jiu said.
“Alright, go ahead, I’ll sit here and rest my feet,” Ye Wenzheng said.
Ye Jiu ran towards Mrs. He, “Mom, I’m going ho now.”
Mrs. He thought Ye Jiu was just tired and wanted to go ho, she didn’t think much of it and said, “Alright, be careful on your way, don’t run around.”
“Got it,” Ye Jiu said as she turned back.
As she passed by Old Man Ye, he stopped her, “I saw Wenzheng sitting there whispering with you for quite so ti, what were you guys talking about?”
“Talking about land for dad,” Ye Jiu playfully responded, then as she ran she called back, “Dad, I’m leaving first, you guys go ho for lunch by yourselves.”
“This girl just delivered one al and she’s already lazy,” Old Man Ye couldn’t help but complain.
He didn’t believe Ye Jiu was actually going to check the land. What would a little girl know? Even if they were to buy land, it should be soone like him, an experienced farr, who needed to inspect it.
Ye Jiu returned to the spot and saw Ye Wenzheng sitting on the ground, “Let’s go,” she said.
Ye Jiu’s clothes were dirty, and to look appropriate, she went ho to change into the male attire she had bought previously.
She wasn’t considered very attractive, and dressed in n’s clothing, she actually looked better than in won’s attire.
Without any ans of transport, the two had to walk. Although it wasn’t far, it still wasted a good half-day’s ti.
“That’s the estate right over there. I’ve already checked the land; it’s all good, just too much of it, so nobody was able to swallow it whole at once,” Ye Wenzheng pointed to the estate ahead and explained.
As he was speaking, a young, dark-skinned boy ran towards them, his face full of urgent concern that seed genuine. He said to Ye Wenzheng, “Brother, soone else just went in to see the estate, and the land broker is also inside. I sneaked a peek, and that master seems quite satisfied with the estate; I don’t know if they have made a deal yet.”
With Ye Jiu present, Ye Wenzheng did not dare to decide alone but turned to Ye Jiu to introduce him, “Young Miss, this is Erdan from the neighboring village, we t carrying goods at the town dock. I asked him to help keep an eye on this today.”
Ye Jiu nodded at Erdan and then questioned, “And the land broker is…?”
“The land broker is soone from the Dentist Office in town. Young Miss, we rarely sell land privately here, it’s almost impossible to buy, so I had to go to the Dentist Office to inquire,” Ye Wenzheng explained.
Ye Jiu understood now; a broker is essentially an interdiary, responsible for the middleman role.
“Let’s go in and take a look,” Ye Jiu suggested and proceeded ahead.
Following behind, Erdan asked Ye Wenzheng, “Brother, is your cousin a girl?”
