Tianyu Alchemy Lord
Chapter 107: Being left in the cold
"Have you heard? This time, the second wife of the Jiang family took the initiative to leave, and took some of the Jiang family members with her to establish the new Nanjiang Mansion. They want to build a brand new martial arts family!"
"I'm afraid it will be difficult. It is said that the second wife of the Jiang family left home and did not take away any of the Jiang family's property."
"It is too difficult for a family led by a female to gain a foothold in Qinghe City where there are many families!"
"I heard that Mrs. Jiang was often suppressed and ostracized overtly or covertly when she was in the Jiang family. This time the family is finally separated. No matter what you say, I support her anyway."
On a street in the south of the city, a glittering three-character "Nanjiang Mansion" plaque hung above the two doors. The servants were coming in and out, carrying things to the house.
Xu Yin stood by the gate, looking up at the plaque on the gate, with a hint of worry in her eyes.
Just the cost of renting this house and hiring servants and guards has allowed her to sell most of her private property. However, this is just the beginning. Where will the subsequent expenses come from?
"Auntie."
At some point, Su Chen had already stood beside her.
"Xiaochen, you're here."
Xu Yin came back to her senses and showed a gentle smile, "What happened last night was really full of twists and turns. I haven't thanked you properly, Xiaochen."
What happened last night was definitely a blessing in disguise for Xu Yin. She originally thought she would be imprisoned by Jiang Shan and Jiang He, but she didn't expect that she would eventually separate and get a new life.
For Xu Yin, as long as she no longer has to deal with Jiang Shan and Jiang He, it doesn't matter if she suffers hardship every day.
"Mainly because Mr. Mo helped a lot."
Su Chen smiled lightly and said, if he hadn't asked Qingping to invite Master Mo last night, things wouldn't have ended so easily.
"By the way, aunt, this is for you."
Su Chen casually took out a brochure bag and handed it to Xu Yin.
Xu Yin took it and opened it doubtfully, only to find that there was a thick stack of banknotes in the bag.
"Xiao Chen, where did you get so many banknotes?" Xu Yin's eyes widened. There were so many banknotes, roughly estimated to be at least 20,000 taels. How did Su Chen, a fifteen-year-old boy, get so many banknotes? money?
"Ten thousand taels of it belong to you, my aunt, and the rest is earned by me." Su Chen said, "You need money everywhere to build Nanjiang Mansion now. With this money, everything will be easier."
"Well, Xiaochen, I don't want to use your money..." Xu Yin was about to refuse, but was interrupted by Su Chen's next words.
"Auntie, you didn't say it yourself, are we a family? Why are you still pushing back and forth with your family's money?"
Xu Yin knew very well that she really needed the money now, and Su Chen's bank note undoubtedly solved her urgent need.
However, as an elder, she had to rely on the younger generation for support at this time, which made her feel a little mixed.
She had no choice but to accept the banknote and repeatedly told Su Chen that if he was short of money, he must tell her.
But in fact, Su Chen is really not short of money. Taking more than ten thousand taels as an example, it is not difficult for him to make money.
Su Chen glanced around and asked, "Today is the day when Nanjiang Mansion was established. Why are there no guests coming to congratulate you?"
Xu Yin smiled and said: "This is normal. It's probably because everyone doesn't know the inside story of the Jiang family's separation, so they don't dare to come to congratulate them for fear of accidentally offending Beijiang Mansion."
The Jiang family split up, and Xu Yin established the Nanjiang Mansion. The former Jiang family was naturally called Beijiang Mansion.
Su Chen noticed that when Xu Yin spoke, although her expression was smiling, she still couldn't hide the hint of disappointment deep in her eyes. Obviously, this desolate scene made her feel a little uncomfortable.
At this moment, Master Mo came up from a distance with several alchemists in high spirits, and said with a smile from a distance: "Mrs. Jiang, oh no, I should call you the head of the Jiang family now. Today is the Nanjiang Mansion. On the day of establishment, I am very happy to have you come to congratulate me.”
With that said, Master Mo took out a small bottle from his sleeve and handed it to Xu Yin: "I just made some spirit-gathering pills as a gift. I hope Master Jiang won't dislike it."
Xu Yin thanked him repeatedly: "Last time, I didn't thank you properly for the Dragon Tiger Blood Building Pill that I gave you. How can I be so embarrassed to accept it again this time?"
At this time, a servant came out of the house: "Master, the banquet is ready!"
Xu Yin said to Master Mo: "Master, please come with me into the mansion and go to the banquet hall to enjoy the housewarming banquet."
Master Mo smiled and said, "Okay, but I can just go in by myself. Head Jiang should stay at the gate and entertain other guests."
Xu Yin's face darkened and she said, "Master Mo is joking, there shouldn't be any other guests coming today."
Master Mo frowned slightly: "Really? It's impossible, right? After all, it's the establishment of a new family. How is it possible that there isn't even a single guest to congratulate you?"
Xu Yin forced a smile and said: "Probably the families and forces in the city felt that Nanjiang Mansion and Beijiang Mansion were separated due to conflicts, so they did not dare to visit Nanjiang Mansion to congratulate them for fear of offending Beijiang Mansion. ”
"Even so, it's impossible not to have even one person come to the door." Master Mo still felt strange. Although Beijiang Mansion is powerful, it has not been able to cover the sky with one hand. What's more, there are so many families and forces in Qinghe City, it is impossible. All families and forces look up to Beijiang Mansion, right?
Xu Yin just smiled bitterly: "It's normal for no one to come to the door. Master, please follow me in."
But despite Xu Yin's words, Master Mo still insisted on waiting outside the gate of Nanjiang Mansion. He didn't believe that there was not even a single guest coming to congratulate him.
Seeing Master Mo's insistence, Xu Yin had no choice but to wait at the gate of Nanjiang Mansion with Master Mo.
As for Su Chen, he had already found a shady place by himself and began to meditate.
However, Su Chen's meditation only started for a moment before he was interrupted by a loud shout:
"The envoy from the Lu family would like to congratulate the establishment of Nanjiang Mansion!"
Following this shout, a smiling old man strode over from a distance with two followers. The old man held a big red tray in his hand, with various festive and auspicious gifts placed in the tray.
Seeing this, Xu Yin finally showed a sincere smile on her face.
Although the Lu family is only a third-rate family in Qinghe City and not particularly prominent, at least the arrival of the Lu family's envoy means that Nanjiang Mansion is not completely isolated in Qinghe City and at least has some connections.
Xu Yin walked forward with a smile on her face and said, "Thank you so much for the envoy from the Lu family for coming here."
