Chapter 10 Five Ghosts Bringing Wealth
"Wow!"
Suddenly, the messenger appeared in her ear, baring his teeth and claws and shouting, "Master, don't listen to his nonsense! He's thinking that he'll keep you calm for now, and then marry you off in a few days so he can interfere in your family's affairs."
"Then he'll make his wife stay wherever he wants!"
Yin Liuli scratched her itchy ear and chuckled inwardly.
"I know, but do you think I'm stupid?"
Yin Jingtang, speaking through the window with a forced smile,
"My lady, I know you have always loved bamboo. When Xiaoxiang Courtyard was built, I had it planted with the finest Xiaoxiang bamboo."
I originally planned to move there to recuperate once you were better, but I've been so busy that I forgot.
Why don't you and Liuli move over first, and we'll add anything else you need...
"Wah-yah-yah," she whispered in Yin Liuli's ear.
"Wow... Master, what he said sounded so nice! He's giving that courtyard to his concubines!"
The shadow of Zhen Shi on the window paper trembled slightly.
She has never liked the vibrant colors of flowers and willows, but she adores the simple green of bamboo.
During their honeymoon, Yin Jingtang coaxed her into giving him a thousand taels of dowry money, saying he would find a quiet place in the mansion to plant bamboo, just for her to enjoy.
Two years later, the Xiaoxiang Courtyard, filled with green bamboo, was indeed built, but unfortunately, it was occupied by Yin Jingtang's concubine, who liked to pretend to be cultured and considered herself aloof.
Yin Liuli slightly lowered her brows.
In her letter, her mother mentioned that she liked bamboo, but the courtyard in the mansion that was full of green bamboo had been occupied, and she had to be careful about her appearance even if she went in to take a look.
A sharp glint flashed in Yin Liuli's eyes as she asked casually,
"Is what you say true, Lord Marquis?"
"Of course it's true!"
Yin Jingtang thought she was interested, and quickly said with a beaming smile, "Father will have someone clear out the courtyard and clean it thoroughly, then you can move in, how about that?"
Yin Liuli scoffed lightly, "My mother doesn't care about courtyards that other people have lived in! I only want those bamboos."
Yin Jingtang was taken aback. "Liuli, what do you mean? I don't quite understand..."
"Literal meaning."
Yin Liuli raised an eyebrow with a cold smile, "Since Your Excellency agrees, then I won't stand on ceremony."
"Well, that's fine, but even if we move all the bamboo in that courtyard, it will take some time."
A sense of foreboding suddenly welled up in Yin Jingtang's heart.
"There's no need for you to worry about that, Lord Marquis."
Yin Liuli drew a "Five Ghosts Transporting Wealth" talisman on her palm with her slender fingers, then pointed with her other hand, "Go!"
The five ghosts summoned were five Yin generals, who possessed the ability to move worldly wealth and possessions invisibly.
A flash of light appeared, and from the five directions—east, west, south, north, and center—a faint wisp of dark mist rose. Five strangely shaped Yin generals, each less than a foot tall, slowly materialized in the air, clasped their hands in a salute to her.
"What are your orders, sir?"
Yin Liuli recited intently, "Move all the bamboo from the Xiaoxiang Courtyard within this residence here!"
"Yes, sir!"
The five Yin generals responded in unison, then turned and disappeared.
When Yin Jingtang saw her raise her hand to draw a talisman, his head spun a little.
Before I could even react, a lush green scene suddenly appeared before my eyes, with rows of verdant bamboo magically filling the entire courtyard.
Yin Jingtang slowly opened his mouth...
Is this girl trying to intimidate us?
At the same time, a terrified scream rang out from Xiaoxiang Courtyard, "Bamboo...where are all the bamboo in my courtyard?"
……
After a long silence, Yin Jingtang swallowed hard. "Liuli, this is..."
Yin Liuli interrupted him with a cold laugh.
"As you can see, my lord, you can give me what I want, or I'll take it myself!"
Yin Jingtang's lips twitched violently, forcing out an ugly smile.
"Snap"
A crisp sound of a covered bowl being poured came from inside the room. After a long while, Zhen's voice drifted out softly.
"My lord, there's no need to say anything more to me. I'll listen to my daughter in everything."
She didn't necessarily want to go back to the courtyard of Fengqiwu, but the children's bed, various tables, chairs and wardrobes that her parents made for her when she got married were all left there and were taken over by Wang Shi.
These pieces of furniture are the result of my parents' hard work!
Although her father wasn't a high-ranking official, the family was quite well-off and enjoyed collecting various precious woods.
A few years before her marriage, her parents used rosewood and sandalwood, which they had collected over many years, to create an extremely valuable dowry for her.
The father said that he and his mother couldn't be with their daughter for a lifetime, but these pieces of furniture could be with her every day.
Yin Liuli also gave them the order to leave without any hesitation.
"My lord, you should head back soon and have someone make room for you."
The air seemed to freeze.
Yin Jingtang's face turned ashen, but he forced himself to speak.
"Then, Father, please try your best..."
"My lord, why don't you make the arrangements right away? My mother and I will be staying here tonight."
Yin Liuli raised an eyebrow slightly. "Granny Jin, call some people to move things."
"Oh? Young Miss, can we really move back to Phoenix Perch?"
The surprise came so suddenly that Granny Jin's voice trembled with excitement, "This old servant, this old servant will go and fetch someone right away!"
……
Yin Jingtang circled the door a few times before finally bracing himself and going inside.
……
"What?! You're letting that bitch live in the Phoenix Perching Tree?"
Wang sat bolt upright in bed, clutching her throbbing head, and yelled, "Jingtang, have you lost your mind? Why should I, Baozhu, and Yuzhu move out?!"
Yin Jingtang said irritably, "What are you yelling about? This courtyard originally belonged to her, it was you who insisted on..."
Wang slapped the bed and angrily cursed.
"We've been husband and wife for so many years. I've borne you children and managed this large family in the Marquis's mansion for you. Even if I haven't done anything meritorious, I've certainly worked hard for you, haven't I?"
That wretched woman is sickly all the time, and she even gave birth to a nemesis that everyone hates!
Now that her daughter is back, you're abandoning us, the mother and children?"
Yin Jingtang glanced nervously outside and roared,
"Alright! Keep your voice down, or that troublemaker will cause trouble again if he hears you!"
Wang puffed out her cheeks and said resentfully,
"Do I care if she hears me or not? Her daughter has been acting arrogantly in the mansion since she came back, and now she wants to take over my courtyard. What does she take me, her wife, for?"
"Jingtang, if you agree to her today, will Baozhu, Yuzhu, and I still have any face left in this mansion?"
Yin Jingtang clenched his fists, his face darkening as he spoke.
"Do you think I want this? Madam, you've seen that scourge's methods before, and you don't know what skills she's learned."
Just looking into her eyes sent chills down my spine!
"If she wants to live in this courtyard, then let her live there. What can I do?"
Thinking of Yin Liuli's methods, Madam Wang couldn't help but shudder, covering her face and sobbing.
"I don't care, is she going to kill me if I don't move? Jingtang, you have to stand up for me!"
I can't swallow this anger. Is there really no other way?
Yin Jingtang waved his hand impatiently.
"If I could control that scourge, would I let you move out?"
We can figure out a solution after we get rid of her.
"Hurry up and have someone pack their things; they're moving in tonight."
"What?! Tonight?! This is outrageous! She's trying to kill me!"
Wang was furious. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. In a fit of rage, she threw herself into Yin Jingtang's arms.
