"What do you want to do? I'm not... afraid of you." Xue Qingqing pulled the quilt and looked at Yangyang, and there was indeed a hint of panic in her eyes, and she herself didn't even know why.

Yangyang grabbed her wrist and warned her, "If you don't want to die, stay away from the Feng family."

Yangyang just didn't want to be dragged into this quagmire because of Zuo Xiang for various reasons.

As for whether Xue Qingqing was dead or alive, she didn't care at all.

After the warning that day, Xue Qingqing stayed at home quietly for a long time because of the injury on her face.

Yangyang also took advantage of this free time to sort out the Xue family's household affairs.

Apart from the portion that Xue Qingqing took away, the rest of the accounts were pretty even.

only……

"My lady, the old lady asked you to go to Dawn Hall."

It was almost lunchtime, Yangyang was lazily dozing off on the toffee chair, when Xiaotao suddenly came in and said.

Yangyang half closed his eyes, "What could possibly happen at this hour?"

"It is said that someone has come from Master Xue's place, so the old lady will ask you to go over there!"

Xiao Tao was not very clear either. In recent days, the people from Mr. Xue's family never came to the Zuo Xiang's residence because the Zuo Xiang was an honest man and would not give anyone the favor of using the back door.

But today, it seems that a lot of good things were brought into the Zuo Xiang Mansion. "Miss, you should go and take a look! I wonder what medicine the second master's family is selling today."

Yangyang woke up as if from a dream, remembering that he had seen Xue Duanhua in Nisangfang some time ago, but he did not recognize him. Could it be that the old lady had informed him and let him know?

Without giving it too much thought, Yangyang asked Xiaotao to fix her makeup and headed straight for Chenxi Hall.

As soon as his right foot stepped over the threshold, before he could see clearly who the visitor was, he heard the old lady's cheerful and refreshing introduction.

"Come, come, our Yangyang is here." The old lady glanced at Yangyang, and her eyes stayed on Xue Duanhua who came from Mr. Xue's house. "We are all family."

Yangyang followed the old lady's gaze. Unlike the greasy look on Xue Duanhua's face that she saw a few days ago, today Xue Duanhua acted like an elder.

Seeing the old lady introducing Yangyang, Xue Duanhua picked up the teacup and drank with disdain on his face.

The old lady, on the other hand, tried her best to please him, without any of the dignified demeanor of a grandmother. "Yangyang! This is your second uncle. Go and meet him."

Although Yangyang didn't like this opportunistic uncle, he was an elder after all, so he listened to the old lady's request and politely stepped forward to pay his respects.

"Hello, Uncle!"

When he looked up again, Xue Duanhua became even more arrogant and looked Yangyang up and down.

Seeing the situation was cold, the old lady said, "Hua Ge'er! The deed is now kept by Yangyang. You see, it's not that I don't want to give it to you, but I'm too old now..."

When Yangyang heard this and saw Xue Duanhua snorting coldly, she realized that the old lady was using her as a shield.

Before the old lady finished speaking, Xue Duanhua raised his hand and waved it impatiently, "Aunt, please don't try to make excuses with me. Today, I have done my best to show my sincerity."

As he spoke, he waved his hand to indicate the large nanmu boxes neatly arranged in a row outside the Chenxi Hall, each box was delicately tied with red silk.

"The finest silk, I'm afraid the old lady has never seen it before when she was running the business. It's worth a fortune."

Xue Duanhua looked like a nouveau riche showing off. Although the old lady was unhappy, she still smiled dryly for the sake of appearance.

Xue Duanhua took a sip of tea and continued,

"As for the land deed, it was agreed that if we manage the business well, Second Aunt will give it to us."

"Second aunt has taken a good look at this account. Now, let alone other businesses, the revenue of this Nisangfang store is probably equal to that of all the stores in Jingwei City. Naturally, the land deed should be given to us."

Yangyang stood aside and finally understood all the reasons.

The old lady was tricked into killing the second master's new concubine by the second master's family. The second master's family used this as a threat to force the old lady to hand over the management rights of several shops in Jingwei City.

But the old lady was unwilling to give the deed, so she posed a difficult problem to make them earn money. She originally wanted to make things difficult for the Second Master's family, but she didn't expect that they could actually accomplish it. This shows that there is no reason to give it.

No wonder the old lady was easily persuaded by Yangyang and handed over the land deed. It turned out that the old lady herself had her own ideas.

The old lady was somewhat speechless after hearing this, so Yangyang stepped forward and said in a friendly manner, "Second Uncle, Yangyang finally understood. Logically speaking, the land deed should be returned to Second Uncle."

Xue Duanhua had just treated Yangyang with disdain, but when he heard Yangyang say this, he immediately changed his attitude, "This niece is sensible, so bring it out quickly."

"It's just..." Yangyang said, looking at the worried old lady, and then at Xue Duanhua, "It's just that what kind of business did Second Uncle do to increase the revenue several times? Doesn't Second Uncle know it himself?"

Fortunately, Yangyang went to Nisangfang a few days ago and did not introduce himself, so I learned about what Xue Duanhua had done.

But Xue Duanhua dared to do it and was not afraid of Yangyang's threats. After all, he had someone behind him.

He laughed and taunted, his eyes sweeping over the old lady, "What do you women know? Who cares if I can earn this money?"

Yangyang coughed lightly and understood the hidden meaning behind his words, but the old lady was a little confused now.

Yangyang didn't care about the old lady, she raised her voice and said with a smile, "Second Uncle, we can't do anything about it. Second Uncle dared to do this, there must be someone behind him!"

"You!" Xue Duanhua thought in his heart, but he didn't expect Yangyang to answer directly. There was a hint of panic in his tone, "That's right, so, give me the deed quickly!"

"Is the family behind my second uncle the Gao family or the Feng family?" Yangyang continued to speak frankly.

With a clatter, Xue Duanhua was so scared that he knocked the cup in his hand to the ground, his face turned green and red, "You little girl, you are not afraid..."

"Second uncle is scared?" Yangyang stepped forward and approached Xue Duanhua, "Didn't Second uncle look righteous just now?"

The more nonchalant Yangyang spoke, the more frightened Xue Duanhua felt, because he didn't know why Yangyang had guessed it, and he didn't know what else Yangyang knew!

But Yangyang only relied on analysis, and the reason was the land deed.

Ke wanted the land deed because he was instigated by the Gao family. Now that he has failed to get it, he naturally has to find another way.

Then there is the Feng family. Seeing Feng Ronger's domineering and arrogant attitude, which other family in the capital would dare to so openly sponsor the sale of royal fabrics.
