Chapter 425
The son's first letter after leaving Beijing mentioned that there was not enough food and pay, and asked her to help use the general's mansion as a mortgage in exchange for silver. She looked anxious and immediately released the news.

I thought I would have to wait for a few days, but the next day a shopkeeper who called himself Wu Ti came to express his willingness to buy.

It's just that the man was so strange that he neither negotiated the price nor urged to hand over the house, but paid the money straightforwardly.

After paying the silver ticket according to the agreed price, he was not in a hurry to go to the government to register and make a register. He left a message saying that he would go to Yuanpenglou to drink tea every day, and then walked away.

Madam Yu was once worried that she had encountered a scammer, so she took the bank note to the bank for verification.

As a result, no problems were detected.

As expected, shopkeeper Wu Ti was sitting in the Yuanpeng Building, which had become a tea house. As soon as the people from the Huo Mansion left, he followed them back without asking any questions.

When Mrs. Yu was a little embarrassed and asked to redeem the General's Mansion, he took out the house deed and presented it without saying a word.

"The original price is good. If there are similar things in the future, I hope Madam Yu will still give Wu some priority."

This matter was resolved without any disturbance, Madam Yu and the butler eye to eye.

What they didn't know was that just as shopkeeper Wu Ti walked out of the General's Mansion, the Zheng family "invited" him to the Wushuang Building.

"What's the matter with this gentleman going to Huo's house?"

Shopkeeper Wu Ti was calm and indifferent: "Passing by."

The person who asked the question obviously didn't believe it: "Don't try to fool us, is it related to the sale of the Huo family's house?"

The shopkeeper Wu Ti was astonished: "What house?"

The interrogator frowned: "The General's Mansion!"

The shopkeeper Wu Ti was puzzled: "What happened to the General's Mansion?"

The interrogator became impatient: "Sell the house!"

The shopkeeper Wu Ti had a sincere expression: "What house?"

The members of the Zheng family feel that something is wrong?
He sorted it out again carefully: "It's about the sale of the house in the general's mansion. Did you go to Huo's house to talk about it?"

The shopkeeper Wu Ti laughed: "What is the general's mansion doing selling the house?"

The Zheng family's brain hurts: "If I knew, what would I ask you?"

Shopkeeper Wu Ti spread his hands together: "I'm just passing by, how would I know?"

Hey!This is back again!

Zheng Youde, who had been listening for a long time, kicked the interrogator: "Just say that your news is unreliable, come on, let him go, you can't even ask a fart, and ask a fart!"

The shopkeeper Wu Ti showed a mocking smile after he walked out of the Wushuang building. It was the fault of the Zheng family waiting for the Huo family.

If he had come later that day, the Zheng family would have taken away the title deed and house deed of the general's mansion and presented a copy in front of the emperor, right?
However, why is this notoriously unreasonable and difficult Second Patriarch Mr. Zheng so talkative today?
In the Huo family's courtyard, the housekeeper was talking to Mrs. Yu: "It's good to take it back, it's not a good thing to let people know that the Huo family moved the imperial-given house."

Speaking of this, he thought of something again: "Didn't Madam worry that the shopkeeper Wuti would be sent by the Zheng family, and that he would make a big publicity about it?"

"The villain sent someone out to inquire, and found that there was only a little rumor about our house sale at the beginning, and no news was leaked afterwards."

"Except for us and the shopkeeper, no one else seems to know that the General's Mansion has almost changed hands."

From this point of view, this mysterious shopkeeper who doesn't know what to do for a living doesn't seem to have any malicious intentions. Maybe it's because the husband or son has helped someday when he saw a bad situation, and he came to repay his favor?

It really is what goes around.
