"Hey, shorty, do you think this kid might be the extraterrestrial mentioned in the imperial edict?" A tall, thin man with a sallow complexion squeezed next to the shorty.

The short, stout man's eyes lit up, and he snapped his fingers, saying, "Very likely! Such a young age, yet possessing god-like medical skills!"

"Then? Hmm, you know!" The tall, thin man with a sallow face narrowed his eyes, raised his eyebrows, and said in a somewhat lewd tone.

"Hehe..." the short, fat man chuckled sinisterly, "The imperial edict said there would be a thousand gold pieces as a reward for finding the extraterrestrials. It seems our decision to try our luck in Ancheng was indeed correct!"

"Then I'll go to the capital to collect my reward. You keep an eye on him!" The tall, thin man chuckled.

……

"Hurry up! Hurry up!" Han Xingyu stood with his hands on his hips, acting like a big shot, directing the three burly men pushing the cart.

Upon entering the Yuelai Inn, the innkeeper greeted us, looking at the three carts with some confusion.

The carts were covered with cloth, but judging from the three burly men's sweaty faces, the load must have been extremely heavy.

"Young master, what's going on?" the shopkeeper asked, looking puzzled.

"It's Uncle Shopkeeper!" Han Xingyu laughed heartily. "My sister said she knew where to buy courtyard houses, so I just brought these things here."

Han Tianci and Han Wuxie heard Xingyu's voice downstairs and rushed down as well.

Han Xingyu made a cool gesture to Han Tianci, who was coming down the stairs, and then suddenly pulled all the cloth off the three carts.

"Wow!" the guests downstairs exclaimed.

The golden light illuminated the entire lobby.

Three whole cartloads of gold, all in large silver ingots!

Han Tianci rubbed his eyes, checked again, and found he hadn't misread it. He looked at Han Wuxie beside him and asked blankly, "Sister, where did this kid get so much gold?"

Han Wuxie frowned slightly, also puzzled.

Han Xingyu ran over, raised her head, and said arrogantly, "Han Tianci, you'd better admit defeat! I only spent an hour, but I brought back three cartloads of gold! And you? You went for an hour and brought back nothing!"

"How did you get it? Did you poison someone again?" Han Tianci asked unhappily.

Han Xingyu waved his hand and said, "I am a miracle doctor with miraculous healing skills! Why would I harm people? I went to save lives!"

Upon hearing this, Han Wuxie suddenly realized that she had forgotten that Xingyu also had a talent for medicine!

The shopkeeper snapped out of his daze, staring at the three carts of gold, and murmured to himself, "What is the background of these three children?"

At this moment, because of the commotion outside, the female boss also came out.

She narrowed her captivating phoenix eyes slightly and walked to Han Wuxie and the others, saying, "If you don't mind, the courtyard next to my house has been empty for a long time. It's also part of my property. Would you like to stay there?"

"Your neighbor's? Is it yours too?" Han Tianci's interest was piqued, but like a little miser, he asked, "How much? Too expensive, please!"

Han Xingyu rolled her eyes at Han Tianci and said, "Han Tianci, this isn't your money, why are you being so stingy! I don't care about the price, as long as it's big enough, comfortable enough, and the flowers in the yard are beautiful enough, no matter how much it costs, I can afford it!"

Han Wuxie looked at his two younger brothers and said with a wry smile, "Tianci, price is not a problem. You don't need to be such a miser. Xingyu, although you are good at making money, you can't be too wasteful. It's just for a short stay, so it doesn't need to be too luxurious. Just a secluded spot will do."

After lecturing her two younger brothers, she turned to the female shop owner and said, "If you really have a place to recommend, we don't want to look any further. Thank you for taking us three siblings in yesterday. As long as your house isn't in a too busy area, we'll buy it."

The female boss smiled and said, "Alright, I'm a businesswoman, so of course I have to make money. As you all know, land prices in Ancheng are rising. I won't give you too much of a discount just because you're children, but I won't be too greedy either. It will be 10% cheaper than the market price."

"Then thank you very much, boss!" Han Wuxie smiled politely, naturally exuding a noble aura.

The guests who saw Han Wuxie, Han Tianci, and Han Xingyu in the lobby all started discussing it.

"This young lady is truly beautiful and has such a refined air about her. Could she be related to royalty?"

"Possibly. Look at that kid, casually throwing around three cartloads of gold, and talking so arrogantly, he must be someone important!"

……

The rain of magnolia blossoms falls, fluttering through my heart, each speck like a star, each petal like a thought.

The falling magnolia blossoms seem to announce the departure of a young girl's heart, washing away the traces left by love.

The female boss looked at the magnolia in the courtyard with a somewhat sorrowful gaze.

This is where the female boss used to live. He chose this place for her, but after he left, she never dared to live here again, nor dared to look at the magnolia flowers.

When he was here, the magnolia blossoms bloomed; when he left, the magnolia blossoms fell like rain.

Seeing the magnolia blossoms fall seems to remind me of the time of parting.

She dared not live here, but she was also reluctant to go too far away, so she could only buy a courtyard house next door.

Last night, she was not spared at all.

Thoughts lingered all night.

Perhaps it was because of the arrival of these three children that I let them stay in that room.

It's time to let go of everything about him, little by little.

It's been three years, three whole years. It's time to forget.

Looking at the withered magnolias in the courtyard, Han Xingyu said with some dissatisfaction, "Is there nothing else besides these flowers? This courtyard is not festive at all, just a bunch of white flowers that keep withering, like rain, making it look like a funeral."

A funeral? The female boss smiled bitterly, thinking to herself: Perhaps it is a funeral; the falling of the magnolia flowers also buries love.

Han Tianci scoffed, "Han Xingyu, you lovesick fool! What's wrong with being fair and clean? Why do you have to be all red and garish? It's so tacky!"

Han Wuxie smiled slightly and asked, "What kind of flower is this? Although it's beautiful, it inexplicably carries a sense of desolation."

The female shop owner smiled faintly and replied, "You're not from Ancheng, so you don't know this flower. It's very famous in Ancheng; it's called the Qionghua (Viburnum macrocephalum)."

"Poor Flower? What a terrible name! I'm so rich, why would I plant a poor flower!" Han Xingyu said unhappily.

"It's not the poverty of the poor, but the magnolia of the magnificent palaces." The female boss looked up at the magnolia tree and gave a bittersweet smile: "Magnificent refers to beautiful things."

The words he often said flashed through her mind, and the female boss couldn't help but murmur: "I want to ride the wind and return, but I fear the jade palaces and towers are too cold at such heights." Realizing that she had unintentionally uttered these words, the female boss explained somewhat awkwardly: "These are words that my benefactor often says. I just suddenly remembered them, so I said them out loud."

Han Wuxie narrowed his eyes and repeated, "I long to ride the wind and return, yet I fear the jade palaces and towers, where the cold is unbearable at such heights?"

Han Tianci also frowned as if he was touched.

Han Xingyu asked in confusion, "Sister Wuxie, what you mean is strange. Does it mean that I want to ride the gentle breeze back to the heavens, but I'm afraid that if I return to the jade-built palace, I won't be able to withstand the loneliness and cold of the towering heavens? Could it be...?"

Haha~ Chenchen really likes the viburnum flower. I wonder if you all like it? I heard that the viburnum flower is the city flower of Yangzhou. I wonder if any of our readers are from Yangzhou?
