When Mo Liuyun arrived at the place selling carriages, he picked out a carriage that he would use to deliver goods to the rented house, and would just store it in the space otherwise.

After buying the carriage, Zhui Feng took him to the tenement. He knocked on the door, had someone call out "Nameless," gave him a jade pendant identifying him, and told him to have Xiao Liu go to pick up the goods the next morning, while he would come in the morning to teach him the production process.

Then he drove home, and when he reached a secluded spot at the foot of the mountain not far from home, he put himself and his horse into his spatial storage. He then teleported back to the corner gate, took out some fruit from his spatial storage, put it in a bamboo basket, and caught a bass from the stream in his spatial storage. He had to admit that the fish in his spatial storage grew really fast. Thinking that his grandmother loved to eat fish, he decided to have Wushuang send some over tomorrow, and also some seasonings.

Back in the courtyard, as soon as he opened the door, Lian'er was already preparing lunch. Seeing Mo Liuyun return, she asked what he wanted for lunch.

Mo Liuyun replied, "We can just have something simple for lunch, like stir-fried green peppers and eggs, and some stir-fried greens. In the afternoon, we'll clear out that patch of land in the backyard and plant some winter vegetables."

Lian'er: "Can we still grow vegetables in winter?"

"Yes, I bought it from a merchant from the Hu region. He said it was winter vegetables. Let's try it. And have you soaked the mung beans yet?"

"It's ready, Miss. Tell me how to do it, I'll do it," Lian'er said.

"I'll cook after we finish eating. You can keep an eye on things. You can do it next time. Keep this fish in water for now, we'll eat it tonight. There's also duck. I'm going back to my room to lie down for a while. I got up early this morning, just call me when it's time to eat!" Mo Liuyun said and went back to her room.

Back in his room and closing the door, Mo Liuyun flashed into his spatial dimension, planning to go to Wangjiang Pavilion after dinner to tell Manager Wang about the delivery. After all, it was very convenient to teleport there now.

Thinking of his teleportation and concealment abilities, Mo Liuyun felt that some debts could be settled later, but the interest could be collected first, such as those from the Qing Prince's Mansion and the Dingguo Duke's Mansion. The thought of tonight's operation filled her with excitement. Just thinking about it was thrilling, and imagining the scumbag's reaction upon discovering it made her even more excited!

First, I prepared the things for my maternal grandmother's house. I took all kinds of fruits, a bucket with several fish, and a few drops of spiritual spring water in the bucket to help the fish live longer. I also had chickens and ducks in my space, which I planned to have Wushuang deliver after dinner.

Now that Wushuang is staying with Ajin, it's much easier for her to go out at night. Although she already considers Wushuang one of her own, she absolutely cannot expose the matter of the space to anyone. She hasn't even told her family, both to protect herself and to protect them, in case anyone finds out and tries to harm them.

Wushuang now teaches Mo Liujin martial arts for an hour each morning and evening. In addition to the most basic skills, there is also riding and archery. It has to be said that Mo Liujin is a little genius. I don’t know if he inherited Mo Yunyi’s martial arts talent. Wushuang can perfectly demonstrate the martial arts moves after teaching them once.

Wu Shuang couldn't help but marvel at how extraordinary the girl's younger brother was—handsome and quick-witted. Had he inherited his parents' good looks? He'd only been teaching him for three days, and he was already performing the moves quite well! If this continued, Beili City would produce another martial arts genius in less than ten years!

In fact, since Mo Liujin drank the spiritual spring water and cleansed his meridians, not only has his physique been strengthened, but his mind has also become clearer than before. Therefore, he can learn anything more efficiently. Wushuang was completely unaware of this, which is why he made this remark.

Ready? Mo Liuyun came out of the space. A moment later, Lian'er knocked on the door. Mo Liuyun and Lian'er had eaten together. Mo Liuyun taught Lian'er how to keep mung beans warm, when to change the water, and then to wrap the wooden bucket with a black cloth to block out the light. Finally, he placed it next to the stove. After instructing Lian'er, Mo Liuyun went out again. He went out the back door, checked that no one was around, entered the space, and with a thought, arrived at an empty alley in front of Wangjiang Pavilion. He left the space and walked towards Wangjiang Pavilion.

As soon as he arrived at the door, Nineteen came out to greet him, smiling and bowing: "Young master, you've arrived! Please come with me, I'll go and call the manager!"

It was just past lunchtime, and the restaurant wasn't busy yet. Before Nineteen could even call him, Manager Wang came out from behind the counter, smiling as he led Mo Liuyun upstairs: "Oh my, it really is young brother! I thought I misheard!"

"Is Manager Wang afraid I'll run away? I'm still waiting to get my money. I've come here to ask Manager Wang about something else." Mo Liuyun joked with a smile.

"Oh, then let's discuss this in detail inside the private room." Manager Wang pushed open the door to the private room, but he guessed in his heart that it was most likely about what Wushuang had mentioned last time—the matter of asking his master to find a villa in the suburbs for the young lady. In the end, none of the suitable properties were available, except for a villa in the far suburbs owned by the Empress, which covered several dozen acres and included a mountain forest.

For some unknown reason, the master actually went to the palace to ask the emperor and empress for this estate. The empress only had this one son. Ever since the master returned from the northern frontier, the imperial physician had predicted that if there was no antidote, he would not live to adulthood. The empress had always doted on him, giving him whatever he wanted. She was just curious and asked why he suddenly wanted this estate.

According to An Yi, the master said that he was repaying a life-saving debt, and the corners of his mouth were even turned up when he said it. An Yi was wondering when Miss Mo had ever saved the master?! An Yi thought that the master was trying to build a good relationship in advance so that Mo Liuyun could cure the master's poison in the future! Well, when you think about it, it was a life-saving debt.

Looking at her son's upturned lips, the Empress couldn't help but wonder if it was someone her son admired. Someone had once suggested that His Highness should be married first, so as to continue his lineage.

This proposal terrified the ministers in the capital who had daughters of noble families, and they could hardly sleep at night. Everyone knew that the Third Prince was not long for life, and they were just waiting to live as widows in the future!

The Empress tentatively asked the master, who bluntly replied that no one could guarantee the health of their offspring. Of course, no one could. What if the child had problems, and the Empress herself had no access to medicine or food in the future? Leaving behind a child with problems would not only bring shame to the royal family, but given her own situation, why would she want to harm another girl?

Upon hearing this, the ministers were relieved. Previously, the censors had paid close attention to the Third Prince's daily conduct, saying that he was arrogant and domineering and had repeatedly advised His Majesty to remonstrate with him. For more than a month, the ministers had been very polite to the prince, simply because, regardless of whether he was born of the principal wife or a concubine, he had daughters or sisters in his family.

High-ranking families and powerful nobles naturally rely on and support each other, with marriage being the most common relationship. A daughter marrying a prince is certainly a source of great honor and glory for the family, but a disabled prince who is not expected to live long, even if he is the legitimate son of the empress, is certainly not destined for the throne. Why waste a pawn like that?

Thinking of all this, Manager Wang was just waiting for Mo Liuyun to ask so that he could go along with it and tell him about the estate. His master had instructed him that if Mo Liuyun didn't have enough money, they could barter. Anyone who could easily produce the Wuji Pill was more likely to have valuable medicinal herbs in their possession.

Mo Liuyun told the deliveryman his name and handed the jade pendant to Manager Wang. Delivery and receipt must be confirmed by both parties. Once Wangjiang Pavilion’s reputation rises again, someone will definitely be eyeing the seasonings. It’s best to be careful!

Manager Wang accepted the jade pendant and nodded in agreement. Then, Mo Liuyun didn't beat around the bush and brought up the estate. Manager Wang clapped his hands and said, "Oh dear, you know, it's better to be lucky than early! A few days ago, a friend asked me to sell an estate about 20 miles outside the city, but the price is quite high, so it hasn't been sold yet."

However, my friend is in poor health and has no heart to manage the estate, so he is reluctantly selling it. My friend knows that several hundred thousand taels is not a small sum, but he also said that barter is acceptable, preferably with rare medicinal herbs. I wonder, if you are satisfied, young master, would you prefer to pay in silver or barter?

"Barter! What kind of medicinal herbs does your friend need?" Mo Liuyun chose barter without hesitation.

Mo Liuyun thought to himself: What a joke! Getting medicinal herbs is much easier than getting money! Even if I don't have them, I'll grow them for you right now!

Shopkeeper Wang tentatively asked, "Does the young master possess any Tian Shan Snow Lotus or Purple Lingzhi?"

Mo Liuyun's heart skipped a beat upon hearing this. Wasn't that the medicinal ingredient the fox spirit needed to detoxify? Could it be that the friend Manager Wang was talking about was a fox spirit?

Mo Liuyun was just worried about not knowing who the fox spirit was and where she was, but now that's perfect, Mo Liuyun said, "I don't have these two kinds of medicine, but my master does. I have no problem asking for them, but I have one condition!"
