Everyone was waiting for Minister Fang to come to the palace and let the emperor make the decision for them. Not only did the emperor not come, but the master also fell into a coma again.

After finally helping the old master to lie down, Eunuch Li arrived. They thought it was the Emperor who came to make the decision for them, but they didn't expect that Eunuch Li just said a few words of comfort, then checked the mansion and left.

"Mother, what should we do? Father is in a coma now. Our house is in this condition and even food has become a problem." Fang Zhirou was extremely anxious. The Shangshu Mansion was her stepping stone to marry into the royal family. Now that the mansion had been robbed, the prince would definitely not like it.

Thinking of the handsome and suave prince, she felt an inexplicable pain in her heart.

"Rou'er, don't panic. Over the years, I have helped your father run the shop, and your father also gave me one. No matter what, I will not let you suffer."

Aunt Lin rubbed Fang Zhirou's head, but her eyes were extremely cold.

Thinking that her current situation was caused by Fang Shiwan, a flash of murderous intent flashed in her eyes.

"Mom, are you telling the truth?"

Fang Zhirou was very excited after hearing this. She immediately grabbed Aunt Lin's hand and asked happily.

"Rou'er, when did mother lie to you?"

"Mom, you are so kind."

Fang Zhirou threw herself into Aunt Lin's arms and burst into tears. She was crying for joy. Fortunately, her mother was smart and knew to hold back. Otherwise, with the current situation in the Shangshu Mansion, it would be difficult for her to make friends with a few noble ladies.

"Come on, let's go visit your grandmother."

"Yes, mother,"

The two of them came to Qingxin Courtyard and told the old lady what Eunuch Li had told them. Eunuch Li mentioned that Concubine Liu had miscarried, but she did not mention a word about it.

The old lady felt heartbroken when she thought about the silver bills she had hidden for many years were gone.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She now hated Zhou and Fang Shiwan to death. If it weren't for them, how could she have lost all these things.

So, she said vaguely:

"Yu Shuang, Rou'er, I have nothing left in this old yard. You should go back to live in your own yard."

"Mom, what did you say?"

"I'm telling you, there's nothing left in this yard now, you should go back to your respective yards and see what you can do now that Zhengxiang has woken up."

Fang Zhirou was anxious: "Grandma, but no one can live in my granddaughter's yard now."

"Can people live here? I have nothing here. I feel sad when I see you. You should go back. It's better to clean up the yard than to leave it empty here."

"Grandma..." Fang Zhirou wanted to say something, but she saw that her grandmother had already lay down to rest.

Aunt Lin didn't expect the old lady to turn against her so quickly. She had no choice but to obey. Now the master is the one who has the final say in the mansion, and the master listens to the old lady the most. If she offends him, she will not have a good ending.

"Yes, mother, my wife knows."

The two of them had no choice but to go to the courtyard where Zhou and Fang Shiwan used to live, but when they arrived at the courtyard, they felt sad and cold every time they looked at it.

"Mom, what should I do? My daughter cannot live in this yard."

Aunt Lin also thought so. She originally wanted to live in the courtyards of those concubines, but now she was pregnant, so how could she go there casually? What would she do if something happened?

"Rou'er, don't be afraid. That bitch has lived here for ten years. We have sent people to clean up the things in this yard. After a few days, let your father find a way to tidy up this place. It will definitely not be inferior to our previous yard."

"Mom, I don't. This yard looks like a haunted house. Look, it's so spooky."

After Fang Zhirou finished speaking, a gust of wind blew over, scaring the two of them so much that they trembled.

A quarter of an hour later.

Biluoyuan.

Fang Zhirou took Aunt Lin's hand and walked inside, followed by several maids.

"Mom, what's the difference between cleaning up the yard and not cleaning it up?"

Aunt Lin was extremely devastated at this moment. This place was no better than the servants' courtyard. But if the noble ladies in the imperial city knew that she lived in the servants' courtyard, they would definitely laugh at her. She couldn't do that.

"Rou'er, it's okay. We'll stay for a few days. When your father wakes up, we'll ask him to help us repair the house." When she said this, even Aunt Lin was unsure.

"Mom, will Dad really make the decision for us?" Fang Zhirou still didn't believe it. Now that the house had become like this, her father's behavior showed how much he cared about it.

"Don't worry, mother is pregnant with a child, your father will definitely consider it."

Looking at her mother's flat belly, Fang Zhirou suddenly smiled. Yes, she had a younger brother, how could she have forgotten him.

The night sky was silent, the lone figure stood proud, the entire imperial city was plunged into darkness, and the night at the Shangshu Mansion was filled with a layer of gloom.

"Mom, mom, there's a ghost."

Fang Zhirou suddenly woke up from her dream, and was so frightened that she sat up and hugged Aunt Lin who was already sleeping.

After hearing this, Aunt Lin suddenly opened her eyes and all sleepiness disappeared.

"where is it?"

Fang Zhirou pointed toward the window fearfully.

Aunt Lin looked in the direction of her hand.

There was no movement at the window, and it was completely dark.

Aunt Lin rubbed her eyes and said, "Rou'er, are you seeing things? Where is the shadow? A ghost..."

Before she could finish her words, a figure suddenly floated out of the window. Aunt Lin widened her eyes in fear, while Fang Zhirou screamed in fear.

"Ah - help, help, there is a ghost."

Fang Zhirou hid directly in Aunt Lin's arms, trembling with fear. Aunt Lin realized it later and fainted from fright.

The maid guarding the door heard the screams from inside and hurried in. When she saw Aunt Lin fall to the ground, she was shocked.

"Second Miss, what happened? Why did the Second Madam fall to the ground for no reason?"

Fang Zhirou seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw. She looked at her personal maid Caiwei and quickly pulled her hand.

"Caiwei, there is a ghost, there is a ghost."

Caiwei was also scared to death after hearing this. She sat on the bed with her body huddled up and asked Fang Zhirou, "Second Miss, where... where are you?"

"It was right by that window. My aunt and I saw it just now. It was a female ghost with her hair loose."

After hearing this, Caiwei's whole body suddenly relaxed a little. Today was her turn to keep watch. She had been standing at the door the whole time and had not dozed off.

"Miss, I have been standing at the door. No."

"No? How is that possible? Caiwei, take a closer look..."

Fang Shiwan, who was on the roof, looked at Fang Zhirou, whose face turned pale with fear. He brushed the dust off his body and left with brisk steps.

After Mo Qitian came back from the palace today, he has been secretly observing the entire Shangshu Mansion. Even Fang Shiwan's every move is under his eyes.

Now seeing the little girl out for a ride again, he smiled slightly. It seemed that the wind was particularly strong tonight.

Feeling someone following him, Fang Shiwan turned around, but found no one.

"Strange, I clearly felt it, why is there no one here?"

Suddenly, she slipped and fell off the roof. Fang Shiwan was so frightened that she suppressed her screams.

This scene that she had arranged with great difficulty tonight must not be exposed, otherwise Fang Zhirou would get the advantage for nothing.

But...what if she hits the ground with her head? Wouldn't it be over if she gets a headshot?
