Minglan is reborn, this time with no regrets!

Madam Zhou: "What the hell is wrong with you!"

Mr. Xu: "It's really none of my business. But I value loyalty when doing business. Since my wife is in trouble, I can't just stand by and watch her die. If you want me to buy all the businesses, I can, but I want to see the truth."

"What's the truth?"

"Of course he is the real master of these things."

"Don't think about it!"

"My lady, look, I have shown my sincerity and am willing to spend a lot of money to buy them all for you. Shouldn't you also show some sincerity? I just want to see the real deal so that I can buy it with peace of mind. You get money and solve your difficulties. What's wrong with both getting a good deal?"

Madam Zhou was angry at his cunning and treacherousness, but she had to exchange all the private property for silver as soon as possible because of Lin Xiaoniang's death order. After hesitating for a long time, she said, "Then you wait a moment. I will go back and discuss it with my master. If my master agrees, I will come to find you again."

Mr. Xu: "Okay! If my lady gets the news, go back to the shop on the corner and buy three bowls of tea. I will come here to look for you when I see you. We can then discuss a place to meet."

Madam Zhou: "Why bother? If my master agrees, I can just bring her to you to discuss it, right?"

Mr. Xu: "Alright, then, I will buy a table of good food and wine at Fanlou tomorrow to welcome the guests."

"No need. My master doesn't like to show off. If we meet, it's best to be secretive."

"Oh... that's right. Then I'll book the private room at the west gate of Fanlou facing the street for the whole day, just waiting for your distinguished guest to come."

After the two men finished their discussion, they left the alley, one on the left and one on the right.

Man Niang hid in a pile of chicken coops and was not discovered, but she heard everything they said.

[Isn't this Madam Zhou someone from Madam Lin? Why is she in such a hurry to sell so many properties? ]

Zhu Manniang became more and more certain that something had happened to the Sheng family.

"No wonder you haven't come to my place for a month or two. This damn Sheng Changfeng didn't even tell me about the accident at home. Did he want to drag me to die with him?" Man Niang kept cursing as she walked back.

"No, I can't just sit there and wait for death. If the Sheng family is unreliable, I have to find another way to make a living!" She ran towards Tianshui Lane, but when she reached the entrance of the lane, she did not go inside. Instead, she turned sideways and entered another alley. After walking a few steps, she stopped in front of a door and knocked five times in a row, "Dong Dong, Dong Dong Dong".

After a while, the door creaked open and a tall man walked out.

The man stepped back and covered his nose as he was greeted by the smell of chicken shit. He asked, "Why do you stink so bad?"

Zhu Manniang stepped in, closed the door, and said, "Keep your voice down!"

"Why did you come to see me at this time?" The tall man held up an oil lamp to shine on her, "Why are you so dirty?"

"Brother, something terrible has happened. Something has happened to the Sheng family!" Man Niang pushed her elder brother into the corner and quickly explained the whole story.

"Damn it, you haven't even entered the Sheng family yet, and their family is about to fall?" Brother Zhu was so angry that he punched the door.

"Fortunately, we didn't go into his house. If something serious happened, wouldn't we be implicated?" Zhu Manniang pulled down her brother's ear and said in a very low voice: "Brother, don't you know that Madam Zhou? Tomorrow, you will wait near the Sheng family. If you see Madam Zhou alone, take the opportunity to rob her and search for all the land deeds and house deeds on her. There is no name on the deeds, so we can sell them later. Even if we discount the price, that much silver is enough for us brothers and sisters to eat and drink!"

"It's broad daylight, and this is Bian Jing!" Brother Zhu shook his head.

"Don't worry, brother. What she did was shameful. Even if she was robbed, she would not dare to make a sound." Zhu Manniang's eyes were firm.

"But if the Sheng family is still here, wouldn't this block your way in?" Brother Zhu hesitated.

"Brother, you are stupid. In Sheng Changfeng's eyes, you are already buried. Madam Zhou has never seen you. Who would have known that it was my own brother who went to rob the mother-in-law of the Sheng family?"

Brother Zhu slapped his thigh and agreed immediately. He didn't even sleep, went into the house, put on his clothes, and rushed to Jiying Lane.

When Zhu Manniang returned to the room, it was already dawn. Mei'er was sleeping soundly, completely unaware that the person she was watching had been hanging out outside all night.

Zhu Manniang changed her clothes and lay back on the bed, beginning to look forward to the good days when she would get countless silver.

……

Brother Zhu pretended to be a porter waiting for work at the door of Sheng's house. When it was bright, he saw Madam Zhou sticking her head out of the door.

He and Madam Zhou looked at each other. The other party obviously didn't realize who he was. Madam Zhou walked out of the door carrying a basket. Behind her appeared a woman in plain clothes. She looked old, but had fair skin and tender flesh, not like an ordinary servant.

Brother Zhu remembered what Zhu Manniang said at night, and guessed that this person should be the "master" that Madam Zhou mentioned, that is, the young lady surnamed Lin from Sheng Changfeng. He immediately put his mind at ease, "Two powerless women, haha, it seems that the ancestor of my Zhu family has appeared today!" Brother Zhu rubbed his hands and followed.

The master and servant deliberately chose to walk through remote alleys. The longer they followed, the happier Brother Zhu became, thinking that he would soon get countless silver coins. He covered half of his face with a handkerchief as he walked forward. When the three of them turned into another alley, Brother Zhu suddenly jumped up and pushed Madam Zhou and Madam Lin to the ground.

The two of them shouted, and Brother Zhu kept working. He quickly searched a stack of documents from Madam Zhou. He turned around to leave, but Madam Lin grabbed the other end of the documents tightly.

"You bastard! How dare you steal in broad daylight? Do you know who I am?" Lin Xiaoniang cursed in a shrill voice.

Brother Zhu didn't waste any time talking to her. He just kicked her. Mrs. Lin felt the pain and fell to the ground with a cry, but she still held the document tightly in her hand.

There were footsteps coming nearby, and Brother Zhu cursed inwardly, "Damn it!" He loosened his grip slightly, allowing Lin Xiaoniang to fall to the ground holding a few deeds, and then he took the remaining deeds and fled for his life.

Several nearby men turned out from the alley and rushed forward to help Lin Xiaoniang. Lin Xiaoniang slapped their hands away and said, "Whatever you want to do!"

"Hey, lady, we are trying to save you with good intentions, why are you being so rude?" a man said unhappily.

"I'm fine, why do I need you to save me?" Lin Xiaoniang continued to scold.

"Okay, we are the ones who are meddling. Let's go, let's go. This is really unlucky!" Several men returned the same way they came.

On the upper floor of the inn next to the alley, the servant of the Sheng Mansion who witnessed the whole process hurriedly called a replacement to continue watching, then rushed downstairs and ran to a carriage, saying, "Mrs. Lin was robbed. Should we go catch the robber?"

"What was stolen?" Mother Liu's voice came from the carriage.

The servant said, "It looks like a pile of documents, but I can't see clearly."

"Documents? Who are we going to exchange documents with at this critical moment?" Mother Liu thought for a moment, "Send someone to follow the thieves. Don't rush to arrest them. Wait and see if they are in the same group. Keep a close eye on Miss Lin and report any signs of trouble."

The servant left in response.
