Chapter 1198: 1198 Beautiful Woman 3 from Grandpa (Asking for Monthly Tickets) Chapter 1198: 1198 Beautiful Woman 3 from Grandpa (Asking for Monthly Tickets) Her eyebrows perked up, “Oh?”

His expression was grave, “To be honest, my family’s old estate was once haunted, which is why my father decided to move our entire household to Liuan Town.

If there’s a suitable offer for the old estate, we were indeed looking to sell.

However, I need to escort my Grandpa’s remains to the new grave in Liuan Town for burial, which will take three days for the round trip.

Choosing an auspicious day for Grandpa’s burial will probably cause a further delay of about ten days.

Why don’t we talk about this deal after the new year…”

“It’s not like I have to buy your Gao Family old estate at all costs,” said Su Qingyue.

“I’m afraid you might not be able to wait that long.”

“What do you mean by that, young Lady?”

“You don’t seem like an idiot.

Let me give you a hint.

Come over here…” Su Qingyue walked to the back of the carriage.

Gao Shen followed her.

In just a few words’ time, Su Qingyue had returned from the back of the carriage and said to Xiao Yuchuan, “Husband, there’s something going on with the employer; let’s head back.”

“Alright.” Xiao Yuchuan opened the carriage door, and Su Qingyue stepped inside.

Gao Shen unfurled his folding fan, looked at the youthful and beautiful face of Su Qingyue, and said incredulously, “young Lady, you really got married.”

“I’ve always been with my wife.

Do you have a problem with your eyes?

Can’t you see a living person?” Xiao Yuchuan was frustrated.

Gao Shen smiled sheepishly, “I thought your wife was the beautiful woman my Grandpa sent as a gift; I automatically ignored your presence.”

“You’re sick in the head!” Xiao Yuchuan responded icily, “Aren’t you already married with several concubines?”

“My wife and concubines are not as beautiful as this young Lady.

For her, I could renounce my wife and concubines…”

“I couldn’t possibly accept such a generous offer, young Master,” Su Qingyue interjected before Xiao Yuchuan had driven the carriage towards the direction of our town.

Gao Shen stood there, watching the carriage disappear into the distance, then suddenly exclaimed, “Oh no, I forgot to ask for the lady’s name!”

“Her?…” said one of the sturdy men transporting a coffin beside the horse-drawn cart.

“young Master Gao, I know who she is.

She is the ‘first ugliest’ wife Su Qingyue of our town, famous everywhere.

Her face used to be covered in sores and pus.

After those healed, she became such a beauty.”

“So, it’s her!” Gao Shen’s eyes filled with admiration.

“I heard she just helped County Magistrate Zheng solve a strange case.

Had I known it was her, I would have chatted with her more…”

The Feng Shui Master had tied up the coffins and shouted, “young Master Gao, we can go now.”

Gao Shen cast a cold glance at the Feng Shui Master but then boarded his lavish carriage, all pretense as the family servants loaded the coffin onto the horse-drawn cart behind him…

Su Qingyue and Xiao Yuchuan took the carriage back to Longyuan Inn in town.

There weren’t as many people as before, but there were still plenty waiting, just to catch a glimpse of Su Qingyue’s beauty.

Su Qingyue felt a headache coming on.

When had she become so eye-catching?

In a private room at the inn, Xiao Yuchuan brewed a cup of hot tea for Su Qingyue, “Wife, are we still buying the ‘haunted house’?”

“Don’t worry.

Within ten days, Gao Shen will come to thank me in person,” said Su Qingyue after sipping her tea.

“I am determined to acquire the ‘haunted house’.”

…

Next to the haunted house, there were four households, two of which also left their houses empty and uninhabited due to fear of the heavy yin energy from the proximity to the haunted house.

The other two households had scant family members living in them.

Over the next seven days, Su Qingyue had Xiao Yuchuan go out to purchase these four households’ properties.

It wasn’t exactly a prime location, but the Xiao Family offered enough silver taels for them to buy another estate elsewhere, so they all sold their lands and houses to Xiao Yuchuan.
