Chapter 232 Just an ordinary child
The train police leader was surprised that this young girl had such abilities.

Of course, the way she dislocated the human trafficker's wrist was also quite shocking.

"Then remove the human trafficker's wrists."

Yun Jiao: "I'm strong."

Yun Linhe grinned and nodded: "That's right, officer. You don't know, our Jiaojiao is just a little more sensitive in terms of her nose, ears, and eyes, a little stronger than the average person, a little better in terms of memory, a little smarter, and a little prettier. That's about it. She's just an ordinary child."

Everyone:…………

No, is that how it's said?
Is this just you being modest or showing off?

The train police officer patted Yun Jiao on the head and left.

But he came back quickly and asked Yun Jiao if she could put it back since she could remove it.

Yun Jiao nodded.

Her family went with her this time, fearing that something might happen to her again.

The sheer size and scale of it made it seem like they were about to start a fight.

When they arrived at the place where the human traffickers were being held, Yun Jiao and the others heard a familiar voice before they even went inside—a heart-wrenching wail.

Is it because the gold jewelry couldn't be recovered?
That's wonderful!

Yun Xiaowu and the others don't hide their expressions; their lips are upturned and they can't suppress it.

Yun Jiao went inside, twisted the human trafficker's wrist back, and said this amidst the astonished gazes of the train police.

"Okay, I'm going back now. Bye-bye, Uncle."

They're actually quite polite.

As for the wailing couple and the unruly child rolling on the ground and howling, Yun Jiao didn't even glance at them.

"Okay, okay... little friend, take care."

After Yun Jiao left, the people inside immediately started chatting.

"How can there be such a big difference between people? This little kid can bravely fight off bandits."

Then look over there, that little brat lying there howling, his voice a cacophony of wailing.

It's not that they're biased; any normal person would like someone like Yun Jiao.

She's well-behaved, good-looking, and capable.

Now that the real thief has been caught, there's no need to open and inspect Yun Jiao and the others' luggage.

Wu Lan got off at the next stop. She was reluctant to leave and kept hugging Yun Jiao, telling her to remember to write to her.

The rest of the journey was peaceful. Without that family of three, they arrived in the capital quietly.

There were also many people at the Capital Railway Station.

Although it's a sleeper train, taking the train is really tiring.

Old Wu invited them, "Come stay at my place for now, have a meal and rest, and I'll send you the money tomorrow."

"That's too much trouble. Let's go to the guesthouse."

If there are only a few people, it's fine to stay at someone's house.

But with so many of them, how could we possibly accept that?

Old Mu, with his hands behind his back, suddenly said, "Come to my place."

Everyone looked at him.

The other person walked ahead: "Why are you all looking at me? Let's go."

The place where Old Mu lived was also a courtyard house.

The three-courtyard siheyuan exudes a rustic charm even from the outside.

But some of the corners of the walls are broken.

After entering through the main gate, you enter the courtyard, which is overgrown with weeds. Some pieces of furniture, missing parts, are scattered on the ground. The door and windows are broken, and some bricks and tiles have large holes.

Many spiders have made their home here. Everyone stood in the yard, enjoying the breeze, and no one spoke. It felt like a flock of crows flew overhead.

"Grandpa Mu, is it still safe to live here?"

There was no furniture, and the place was overgrown with weeds and covered in dust, having been neglected for a long time.

When you put your luggage down, dust flies up and gets all over your face.

Old Mu: …………

Having been away for so long, he never imagined that his courtyard house would turn out like this.

Those people are bastards! They came into an empty house to steal things and vandalize it!
Old Wu chuckled: "Let's go to my place. I have two houses here. Let's go to the one that no one lives in."

Old Mu touched his nose and led his men back to Old Wu's place, looking rather dejected.

On the way, he couldn't help but complain, "We're all brothers, can't you just ask someone to help me tidy up the house?"

It made him lose face so badly today.

Old Wu chuckled: "I thought you were never coming back. What's the point of cleaning the house if you're not coming back?"

The two old men were arguing.

Old Wu's courtyard house on the same street was very well maintained. There were many flowers and plants in the courtyard, as well as a rockery and a pond with carp in the pond. It looked very stylish.

"You guys rest first, and I'll take you out to eat after you've had a good sleep."

After arranging rooms for them, Old Wu left a message and hurriedly ran off with the ambergris incense.

They had eaten on the train, so they weren't hungry now, but they were really tired.

Lying in bed, I fell asleep in no time.

When Yun Jiao woke up, Grandpa Mu was showing her grandparents and father around the courtyard house.

"These courtyard houses vary in size from two to five courtyards. Generally, four-courtyard houses were where high-ranking officials lived in ancient times. They were not only spacious but also made of the finest materials and included gardens."

"House prices were cheaper a couple of years ago; you could buy a two-courtyard house with four courtyards for six or seven thousand. But recently, house prices in the capital have risen quite quickly. A two-courtyard house is now estimated to cost more than ten thousand, and three-courtyard and four-courtyard houses are even more expensive, costing at least fifty or sixty thousand. However, it also depends on the degree of damage to the house."

Grandpa Yun and the others gasped in shock: "This house is so expensive!"

A house costing tens of thousands of yuan is something they wouldn't even dare to dream of.

But I have to admit, this house is really beautiful.

Old Mu said with his hands behind his back, "This is just the money for buying the house. The maintenance of this kind of old house with historical significance will cost a lot of money. There's also the furniture, the flowers and plants in the yard, the pond, the fish, and so on. All of these will cost money."

Yun family: After hearing this, we don't even want to buy it anymore.

Yun Jiao's voice rang out: "Don't worry, we have money. If we run out, we can make more!"

That ambergris costs nearly ten million, so buying a house for tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands, isn't expensive at all.

Even if she runs out of money, she can go back to the sea to look for ambergris or other valuable treasures.

Old Mu admired Yun Jiao's little temper.

"Look at you all, you're not even as generous as a child. Money is meant to be spent, isn't it? Now that you have a few million, are you planning to keep saving it instead of spending it? What's the point of saving it?"

"Spend it when you can, and you can always earn more when you run out. You can't take this stuff with you when you die."

Yun Linhai and the others scratched their heads.

This is something I've never spent so much money on before.

Old Wu returned after putting away the ambergris.

"Come on, let's go wire the money and have a meal!"

Yun Jiao was hungry, so she immediately responded.

"Grandpa Wu, what's the best thing to eat here?"

"There are many delicious foods, but if you ask which ones are the most well-known, it would definitely be Peking duck and douzhi (fermented mung bean juice)."
