“She doesn’t quite seem like an orphan who has lost all her family members!”

This was Yin Suwen’s final conclusion.

Xie Zhinuan looked at Yin Suwen.

Thinking back to what Yuanbao had told her that day about Yin Suwen’s background.

Some things Yin Suwen hadn’t lied about; her father had indeed passed away, and the deceased was her mother, but there were things Yin Suwen still concealed, such as having silver, selling herself to bury her mother was just a ruse to evade her enemies’ pursuit, and her natural beauty, which she simply disguised with certain substances.

Xie Zhinuan went to have a look at Yin Suwen.

The color of her face was indeed different from the color of her neck.

As a weak woman, hiding with her brother and mother from pursuers, thinking of ways to protect herself was the right thing to do.@@novelbin@@

“What you’ve said makes sense, although I had my suspicions, there was no proof. What does she actually want to do? I have many things to take care of next, you help me keep an eye on her!”

Yin Suwen and Xiaoyue, she still trusted Yin Suwen a little bit.

At least, she knew where Yin Suwen came from. Yin Suwen was just lying low to avoid her family’s enemies, whereas Xiaoyue…

She had to grasp Xiaoyue’s tail properly.

Yin Suwen nodded.

She didn’t say anything further.

Xie Zhinuan made a few more arrangements and went to see Xie Yi.

She also spoke with Xie Rong for a while, discussing how to plan and act next. Speaking with Xie Rong, she didn’t feel any pressure and didn’t hold back, saying everything outright.

Xie Rong was really good at giving her advice.

For all the matters she had planned, he agreed without hesitation whether he knew how to do them or not, “Alright, don’t worry, I’ll make sure to get it done!”

Xie Zhinuan smiled, “Then you should also rest early!”

“Mmhmm!”

Xie Zhinuan yawned.

And went back to her room to sleep.

The next day, when Madame Lian from the pawnshop came over, Xie Zhinuan had just finished breakfast, “Sister Lian has come really early!”

“…”

Madame Lian was slightly taken aback.

She hadn’t expected Xie Zhinuan to call her “big sister.”

“If you want to make money, you have to come early. Didn’t you want to buy a manor last time? I do indeed have a few, all located as you mentioned, next to the river. The advantage is convenient access, but the downside is that the fields may flood if there’s heavy rain, which is why people are considering selling,” said Madame Lian softly.

“What’s the price?”

“The price is reasonable; the acreage isn’t large, but the location is truly convenient. For you, who run a restaurant, it’s perfect for growing vegetables. Why not go have a look first?” asked Madame Lian.

She believed Xie Zhinuan must have silver.

And was willing to engage in business dealings with her.

“Alright, I’ll get ready and head out with you!”

Xie Zhinuan informed Dumb Uncle, asking him to take Xie Yi to Auntie Chen’s, and then went out with her to look at the fields.

Upon hearing the news, Xie Rong insisted on joining, so Xie Zhinuan brought him along as well.

The three of them left together, leaving the restaurant in the care of Silly Niu.

Xiaoyue stood at the door watching, then went to find Silly Niu, “Sister Silly Niu, where do you think Sister Xie is going?”

“…” Silly Niu looked at Xiaoyue, “If you’re calling me sister, you should refer to the lady properly, don’t forget your status!”

“…”

Xiaoyue was stunned by Silly Niu’s words.

She genuinely hadn’t expected Silly Niu to speak that way.

“Sister Silly Niu, do you not like me?”

Silly Niu raised her eyebrows, “Why should I dislike you? If you don’t have anything else, you should leave. I have a lot of things to busy myself with!”
