The retired man went into the wrong book, and his beautiful husband loved him
Chapter 63 If I let you spend all your wealth to get a chance to meet your daughter, would you be
In the main courtyard of the Yun Mansion, Lord Yun was sitting in the study, feeling a little uneasy, waiting for the assassin's outcome.
Suddenly, a lingering fragrance wafted over, making him feel dizzy.
Then, his eyes went dark and his body fell to the ground involuntarily.
Yunhai, who had just sent Lord Qi off, quietly walked into the study with a large sack.
Yun Hai looked at Master Yun lying on the ground and smiled smugly. He quickly put Master Yun into a sack and carried him out of the main courtyard.
As for the guards in Yun Boyu's courtyard, they were treated the same as the assassins. Yun Hai even gave them a special medicine that caused them to have crooked eyes, slanted mouths, and drool, while also allowing them to sleep soundly in this strange position.
Yun Hai carried Yun Boyu all the way and jumped out from a lower place on the city wall. He threw him into a carriage waiting in a hidden place and told the people who came with him to keep an eye on Yun Boyu.
The carriage moved slowly forward towards the hot spring residence.
Wenquanju was a property given to Yunqing by his grandfather. Its location was very secluded and no one in the Yun Mansion knew of its existence.
Moreover, although it is not far from the capital, it is very difficult to find because it is hidden in the valley.
This place has not been open to the public since Yun Qing took over at the age of twelve, so almost no one thinks of it now.
Since it is a strategy of sowing discord, of course it is necessary to ensure that Lord Yun is properly "protected" in order to make it appear more realistic.
The master has instructed that Master Yun be provided with good food and drink, and when he is released in six or seven days, he must be in good health and preferably a few pounds heavier. He has taken a leave of absence, so he can go to the hot springs for a vacation.
Yunhai watched the carriage slowly disappear, thinking about the fact that his master had asked him to urgently recall Yunchuan and Yunhe during the day.
The four guards grew up with their master and were given the surname Yun. However, since seven years ago, the four of them have hardly ever gathered together. This time, two of them were suddenly recalled, and I'm afraid something big is going to happen.
It’s time to intensify your training! Yun Qing secretly shook his hands. After refining the Purple Leaf Sky Star last time, he felt that he had touched the threshold of internal strength breakthrough. Soon, he would become stronger.
Golden light fills the earth, making everything shine.
The next day at noon, when Lin Qiqi woke up, she saw that the yard was warmed by the sunlight.
"I accidentally slept until noon again, and A-Qing didn't even wake me up." Lin Qiqi rubbed her eyes and muttered, "I still have to go to Yong'an Pawnshop this afternoon."
However, the Yun Mansion has been really quiet these past few days, except for the assassin last night and the kidnapped Yun Boyu.
It was as if Lin Xiner and Madam Yun didn't exist at all, and Lin Qiqi was still not used to it.
"Qiqi must be exhausted after all the noise last night. She should get some more sleep." Yun Qing walked to the bed with clothes and spoke as he dressed Lin Qiqi.
"Has anyone discovered that Yun Boyu is missing?" Lin Qiqi asked curiously.
Yun Qing smiled and said, "No, the news will probably reach Madam Yun only after the guards are fully awake and can't find anyone. I've already arranged for someone to be hospitalized. If anyone from the assassin organization comes to investigate, we'll fight them off."
"Hmm," Lin Qiqi rubbed her eyes. "Those people aren't important. The main purpose is to lure out the people behind Yun Boyu. I don't know if it has anything to do with Qingfeng Tower."
Lin Qiqi was really sleepy. She felt as if she was enveloped by an invisible force of fatigue, and her eyelids were so heavy that she could hardly open them.
This wasn't just physical fatigue; it was a mental burden. She couldn't help but sigh. Things kept coming one after another, leaving her no time to breathe. There was no hope for retirement.
After lunch, the two went to Yong'an Pawnshop together.
As soon as he entered the room, Xiu Xia came out to greet him: "Master! Mr. Liu is already waiting in the private room on the west side of the second floor."
Lin Qiqi frowned slightly and asked in confusion, "You're here so early?" She held out her hand. Xiuxia immediately understood and handed the box containing the head ornament to Lin Qiqi.
Lin Qiqi and Yun Qing went upstairs together. As soon as they opened the door of the wing room, they saw the middle-aged man sitting behind the table suddenly stand up.
His face was so full of excitement that he even knocked over the teacup in front of him.
Lin Qiqi had already heard Liu Anyu's sobbing in the space. Her consciousness quickly penetrated the space, gently patted Liu Anyu's back, and whispered comfortingly, "I'll let you out to see him in a while."
Xiuxia, who was following behind, immediately had the table cleared and tea brewed again. Then, she led her men, gently closed the door, and left the room.
Lin Qiqi carefully observed the surroundings of the compartment and after making sure that no one else was present, she secretly made a gesture to completely isolate the sounds in the compartment.
In this way, no matter what happened inside, the outside world would not be able to detect it. After doing this, she turned to look at the middle-aged man and said with a smile: "Mr. Liu, please sit down."
"Mr. Yun, Madam Yun!" Mr. Liu finally regained his composure and bowed to the two. "I heard that my favorite headpiece has been lost in the Yong'an Pawnshop. I tried to buy it back, but was refused. Therefore, I have taken the liberty of coming to see you, hoping you would do me the honor of selling it to me. I'm willing to pay ten times, no, a hundred times, the price for it."
Yun Qing hurried forward to help him up, and pulled Lin Qiqi to sit down together. They sat opposite Mr. Liu.
Lin Qiqi then looked at Mr. Liu carefully and found that his facial features were 50% similar to Liu Anyu. He looked kind and benevolent, and there was a faint light of merit on his body. He was obviously a very good person.
However, at this moment, he looked worried, his mind seemed uneasy, and his fortune seemed a little low.
"Mr. Liu, we didn't deliberately withhold the jewelry from the Yong'an Pawnshop. In fact, we were commissioned by Master Jiuyun to discuss something important with you. We learned that a major change had occurred in your family and you were in a bad mood, so we were worried that a sudden visit might make you feel uncomfortable or offended. Therefore, we used the jewelry as bait to invite you to come and meet us." Lin Qiqi smiled and pushed the box towards Mr. Liu, "Is there any damage inside?"
Master Jiuyun is the name that Lin Qiqi and Liu Anyu decided to use after discussion. Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why Liu Anyu can exist in the world as a ghost.
Lin Qiqi didn't want to expose herself, so Master Jiuyun was a perfect excuse. Lin Qiqi used him without any burden, as if she had used him thousands of times before. She even suspected that she had trained Jiuyun just to take the blame for her.
Mr. Liu opened the box with trembling hands, and when he saw what was inside, he couldn't help but burst into tears.
Liu Anyu is his only daughter. He has held her in his hands since she was a child for fear that she would fly away, and held her in his mouth for fear that she would melt.
Mr. Liu and his wife were childhood sweethearts, and their relationship was very close. After giving birth to Liu Anyu, Mrs. Liu had no other children, and Mr. Liu didn't care about the idea of having no successor. The couple had already planned to find a son-in-law for Liu Anyu in the future, so that their daughter would not have to leave home and could always live with her parents.
But he never expected that such a simple outing would lead to an encounter with an assassin. It was impossible for his daughter to have any enemies. Mr. Liu suspected that he had offended someone in his business, which led to his daughter's misfortune. He reported the case to the authorities, but they found nothing.
After suffering a severe blow, Mrs. Liu has been bedridden and was unable to get up even for the funeral.
When Mr. Liu buried his daughter, he wanted to put her favorite head ornament in the coffin, only to find that the head ornament had disappeared.
Yesterday, the servant of the family came to report that the young lady's headwear appeared in the Yong'an Pawnshop. Mr. Liu immediately came to buy it back. He was too lazy to find out who stole it. He just wanted to buy it back and bury it in his daughter's grave again.
However, no matter how high the price was, the other party refused to sell. Later, the shopkeeper suggested that Mr. Liu meet with the owner in person to negotiate and perhaps there would be room for improvement. Mr. Liu immediately agreed.
Lin Qiqi held Yun Qing's fingers and waited for Mr. Liu to stop crying before continuing the conversation.
Mr. Liu cried for a quarter of an hour, then raised his eyes awkwardly and wiped away his tears: "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you two."
"That's fine," Lin Qiqi replied calmly. "It's clear that Mr. Liu and his daughter have a very good relationship. I just wonder if Mr. Liu would be willing to spend all his wealth for a chance to meet his daughter?"
Upon hearing this, Mr. Liu immediately stood up and answered without hesitation, "Yes! I do! Madam Yun, can you find a way to let me see my beloved daughter?"
Mr. Liu really wanted to. The things he cared about most in his life were his wife and daughter. Now that his daughter had passed away and his wife was seriously ill, no amount of money meant much to him. Besides, money could be earned again if lost. If he could see his daughter again, he would not give up all his wealth or even go into debt.
Lin Qiqi stared closely at the face of the person in front of her, trying to catch the slightest sign of lies from his expression, but in the end she found nothing, and a big stone in her heart finally fell to the ground.
It seems that this father's feelings for his daughter are really deep. Even if Liu Anyu appears in the form of a soul, he will probably be able to accept it calmly. Thinking of this, Lin Qiqi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, she carefully took out a dark green bead, and with a solemn expression, she began to spin a story: "This bead has a great origin! It was left by Master Jiuyun. Your daughter should have been enjoying the happiness of family life, but unfortunately, fate brought her to an untimely death, and her soul wandered into the mortal world. However, as fate would have it, she possessed the body of that precious headdress, trapped within it, unable to escape. Fortunately, Master Jiuyun had foresight and calculated that your daughter had a strong connection with Buddhism, so he guided her soul into this bead and used nectar to cleanse her resentment."
At this point, Lin Qiqi paused, observing the other party's reaction. Seeing that he was listening intently, she continued, "Mr. Liu, just take this bead home and place it in the ancestral hall along with the headdress for worship. Within three days, Miss Liu will surely appear to meet you. But remember, humans and ghosts are on different paths, and your meeting must not be known to a third person. Otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous."
After Lin Qiqi finished speaking, she carefully placed the dark green bead in a brocade box and personally handed it to Mr. Liu.
Although Mr. Liu had doubts at the moment, when he thought of Master Jiuyun's great reputation, he decided to seize this opportunity to give it a try.
After all, even if there was only a one in ten thousand chance, he was unwilling to give up easily.
"As for the idea of giving away all the family wealth," Lin Qiqi explained, "it was just a test of Mr. Liu's sincerity."
Mr. Liu held the two boxes, his face filled with excitement and gratitude. He looked at the two and said, "I must give you the money for the headdress. If I can really get what you want, I will definitely prepare a generous gift and come to your house in person to thank you for your great kindness!"
Lin Qiqi smiled and waved her hand, saying gently, "The headgear can be redeemed at the price of the pawn ticket. As for a generous gift, there's no need for that. If Mr. Liu really gets what he wants, just find an open space in your home facing east, set up a table, and light three incense sticks. Then, silently recite my husband's name and kowtow three times with sincerity to express your gratitude."
Yun Qing stood by and was completely confused. He had no idea why they were asking him to worship him, but he did not ask.
Lin Qiqi had her own plans in mind. She wanted to use this opportunity to test whether Yun Qing could gain the power of merit because of the incense in this world.
If he could get even a little bit, it would be a huge help in repairing his damaged soul.
Moreover, if he could really gain merit, then this space would probably be deeply bound to him. Even the way of heaven would probably be inextricably linked to him.
Mr. Liu was about to cry again, and Liu Anyu cried even louder in the space.
Lin Qiqi was almost dizzy from the noise. It wasn't that she didn't want Liu Anyu to see her biological father right now, but if he showed up suddenly, something might happen. That's why she used the Liu family's ancestral hall, asking the ancestors to protect her so she could meet her parents and resist the heavenly punishment that could come at any time.
How come this man and this ghost are both so good at crying?
Lin Qiqi sighed and took a look at Mr. Liu's children's palace. It was not completely dark yet, so there was still hope. In other words, as long as Mr. Liu was willing, he and his wife would still have a chance to give birth to new children.
But whether he is willing or not depends on how Liu Anyu persuades him.
Liu Anyu hiccupped and turned back to farming. Ghosts don't have tears, so she just whimpered.
Lin Qiqi had already analyzed everything. She simply couldn't help herself when she saw her father's grief. She would be able to see her parents more often in the future, so she could endure it for three days.
Sister Qiqi also said that there was a more important reason for them to wait three days: to give Mother a desire to live, to stimulate her vitality, so that she could be treated later. First, stimulate her on a small scale, and then, after they met, let them know that she had begun the path of cultivation and could live forever in the world, and Mother would fully recover.
Liu Anyu took a look at his fields. They were grown very well. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but the yield of fruits and grains harvested recently had increased a lot. The ice cream cone had just been upgraded to the next level, and now the experience bar was almost full again.
