"It's the person who came back from last time."

The neighbor's sister-in-law recognized Yin Yunting at once.

After all, such a noble and handsome young man came to their poor place and left a deep impression on them.

"Didn't you say before that they might be targeting Zheng Xian? Didn't you say that they might be using Zheng Xian as a toy to rub against her?"

"Oh, if it's a person like this, I don't know who will bully whom. Look at his features and body, I don't mind not paying him money..." An auntie said in a low voice with a bit of greed.

Looking at Yin Yunting, she felt that her old man was too disgusting.

The neighbor's sister-in-law looked a little embarrassed.

It is really unconvincing to say that a man like Yin Yunting is one of those eccentric masters who played with Zheng Xian for money.

For someone like him, if he said he didn't want any money, all the women would be happy with it.

"You have really dirty thoughts."

A young bride who had just married into the family spat at these people.

Really shameless.

Yin Yunting pretended not to hear these words, but in fact he did hear them.

The environment here is not good, but he walks slowly in the alley, as if he can blur out the dirt, mess and narrowness around him.

Arriving at the door of Zheng’s house, Mo Qi knocked on it.

This courtyard door seems to be easy to break apart with a little force. I wonder how long the door panel has been used.

The neighbor's sister-in-law couldn't help but come closer.

"Excuse me, distinguished guest, are you here to see Zheng Xian?"

Yin Yunting glanced at her.

Talking too much is a sin of speech.

"We are here to look for Zheng Asi." Mo Qi turned around and answered.

"Is it that Zheng Asi owes you money?" the neighbor's sister-in-law guessed again.

Mo Qi smiled like a little fairy boy and his tone was quite nice, but the words he said were not very kind.

"Oh, this sister-in-law, how much money does she owe for my master to come to her house in person to collect the debt?"

The neighbor's sister-in-law paused.

Not really.

How could Zheng Asi's family owe so much money given the situation they faced?

"Sister-in-law, can you please give way?" Mo Qi pointed to her house again, "That uncle is your husband, right? I can smell the alcohol from such a long distance. There are many taverns in the alley not far ahead. The alcohol there is of very low quality. Drinking too much is harmful to the body. Why don't you go and persuade him to stop drinking?"

The neighbor's sister-in-law turned around and saw what was happening. She was immediately furious.

"You're drinking again, damn!"

She rolled up her sleeves and rushed home.

"Sister-in-law, ask around. I heard that many people who often go there to drink owe money for drinks. Don't owe too much."

Mo Qi raised his voice to remind him again.

The neighbor's sister-in-law almost tripped.

How did this kid know that her damned son owed money for wine?

"Hmph, you come to me and talk nonsense, but you don't even see what I do." Mo Qi raised his chin proudly as he listened to the quarrel between the couple.

Yin Yunting tapped his head lightly.

"Don't be proud."

The door was only then opened from the inside.

Mo Qi took a look and almost took three steps back with a "ouch".

This young lady’s face is whiter than a ghost.

But it would be rude to say that, so he held it in.

Zheng Xian looked at them and was stunned.

"Who are you looking for?"

"Zheng Xian, Miss Zheng?" Yin Yunting asked.

"Yes, you guys..."

"Can we go in and talk?"

Zheng Xian felt that before she could react, she had already stepped aside to let them in.

Yin Yunting walked in, stopped to take a look, and then walked towards the main room. Mo Qi smiled at her and quickly closed the gate as if taking the initiative.

He also said to Zheng Xian, "Miss Zheng, please go in. I will stay in this yard."

Guard? What is there to guard?

Although Zheng Xian felt a little puzzled, she still subconsciously followed him to the main room.

After Yin Yunting came in, he looked around the room and heard someone coughing twice from the room behind a curtain.

And there were people chopping wood in the back.

It was already dark, and the lights in the main room were still on. Once you come in, it's so dim that it makes you feel extremely uncomfortable and depressing.

Didn’t you say that you were going to Daxing Village to find a job?

The three members of this family went there, but in the end they didn't get any money back?

He turned and looked at Zheng Xian, frowning slightly.

Because Zheng Xian looked like she was missing half her life.

"Miss Zheng Xian, can you light a lamp?"

"Light the lamp? Oh, okay."

It seems like one instruction and one action, but the reaction doesn't seem right.

She didn't have the normal reaction to a stranger like him suddenly entering her house. But Zheng Ying once said that her sister had a bad temper, and she was worried that her sister would go to the Marquis' Mansion to find Zhu Minghao regardless of everything after knowing what happened to her.

She also said that her younger sister was prettier than her and was worried that Zhu Minghao had taken a fancy to her younger sister again.

But the Zheng Xian in front of him was so thin, too thin to be normal, and her face was so pale that her lips were unnaturally white. She was really different from the sister that Zheng Ying had described.

It is said to be lighting a lamp, but in fact it is just lighting half a candle.

But there is finally some light.

"Can you invite your parents over?" Yin Yunting said again.

Zheng Xian looked at him, moved her lips, nodded, and went to call for help. She called Zheng Ah Si, then went back to the inner room, and soon helped a sickly and weather-beaten woman out.

Zheng Asi also entered the main room.

The couple were stunned when they saw Yin Yunting.

"Sir, are you here to see me?" Zheng Asi felt like he was stuttering as he spoke.

His wife looked at Yin Yunting with some caution and held her daughter's hand tightly.

She had no good feelings towards such a noble man.

Because her daughter, Daya, was harmed by such a man.

"Yes, I came to see you." Yin Yunting said, "My last name is Yin, and I came to see you before."

"The neighbor is talking about you, but we don't know you." Zheng Asi was very nervous.

He had a worried look on his face, his hands were covered with cracked calluses, his body was slightly hunched, and he was at a loss in front of Yin Yunting.

"It's like this. Your daughter sold me a hairpin for a hundred taels of silver. I'll give it to you."

Yin Yunting’s words shocked the three members of the Zheng family.

Zheng Xian didn't react much at first, but after hearing this, she couldn't help but say, "I didn't sell you any hairpins. I don't have any hairpins."

She had no hair ornaments on her head, not even a flower made of rags, so where could she get a hairpin to sell? And one that could be sold for a hundred taels.

Zheng Asi and his wife also found it a bit ridiculous.

"Sir, are you mistaken? Even if we sell our entire family, it's not worth a hundred taels." Zheng Asi said.

Even if they sold their entire family together, they still couldn't get this price.

"It's not you, it's your sister." Yin Yunting said to Zheng Xian.

Zheng Xian was shocked.

"What did you say? My sister?"

"Correct."

"My sister is dead!" Zheng Xian finally became excited.
