The prince dotes on his wife: a reborn peasant woman is not easy to mess with

But what people didn't expect was that as soon as the three of them walked to the door, they saw the things they had thrown on the ground in panic and thought they had to buy again.

"They actually chased them here?"

"Wait a minute, don't you think it's strange, why do you have to return things after chasing us? Isn't it really tiring to pick them up all the time?"

You must know that these things are not worth much. Since you can chase them here, you can obviously catch the three of them faster.

Zhou Xiaoyuan also realized that something was wrong in her words, and her already knitted brows furrowed even more, and it took a long time before she let out a sigh.

"I don't know, but I just don't think they are good people. Otherwise, why would they take us to such a remote house?"

"But these things are not valuable, so why are you just picking them up like this?"

It's unclear, but it's possible that he wanted to confuse them and then sell the three of them.

Not wanting to be separated from her child, Zhou Xiaoyuan couldn't help clenching her hands, pulling the two of them to look around carefully.

After confirming that there was no one around, he opened the door and tried to rush directly into the courtyard, shutting out the danger.

But what she never expected was that as soon as the door was opened, the housekeeper's voice reached their ears.

"Madam, please wait, madam, we are really not bad people."

"Those imprisoned also complain like this, but which one is an innocent person?"

The butler thought it was too obvious that there was no three hundred taels of silver here, so he sighed and took out the token that could prove his identity.

"This is the mansion where I am. If you don't believe me, you can take this thing and ask people."

"No, who knows if you will find a group of people there

Pretending? "

Thinking that she had been fooled once and would never be fooled a second time, Zhou Xiaoyuan refused to let anyone get close to her and picked up the undamaged rolling pin defensively.

The housekeeper also heard some news on the way. Looking at the black spots on the rolling pin, he couldn't help but take two steps back to distance himself.

This appearance also made Zhou Xiaoyuan relax slightly, but she still looked directly at the housekeeper.

"Why do you have to give me that mansion? If you keep it yourself, or find someone to buy it, it will be a huge gain."

The housekeeper knew that if he continued to use the word "send" at this time, he thought for a moment and then raised his head and looked into those alert eyes.

"You think I don't want to?"

"Then you go sell it, why do you have to drag us along?"

After finally hearing the truth, Zhou Xiaoyuan was like a hairless hedgehog, looking at the housekeeper with ulterior motives with a more ferocious expression.

But the next sentence made her frown again and look at Zhou next to her in surprise.

"You mean where the murder happened? Why have we never heard about it?"

"This kind of thing is naturally very secretive. I have people clean it again and again, but in a few days there will be a vague smell of blood coming out of it, and there will be no way to live in it."

"I have tried to buy it several times, and it was indeed successful, but..." The housekeeper sighed and looked at the unhelpful guard.

Knowing that the housekeeper couldn't make up the matter, he had no choice but to step forward and continue to explain.

"In the end, the man came back again within a few days with the land deed. He said we were lying to people and sneaked over at night to scare people."

"Ghost?"

The guard nodded, but then thought

He wanted to give away the house, so he immediately shook his head again.

Under Zhou Xiaoyuan's suspicious eyes, she felt even more guilty but continued to make up the story.

"We also sent people in for several days, but we didn't see anyone at all. We just smelled a slight smell of blood. It was probably a neighbor who informed the other party about what happened in the courtyard, so we made up lies and asked the housekeeper to refund the money and leave."

"It's not like we haven't tried selling them at low prices, but in the end no one was willing to buy them. It was completely lost."

The housekeeper suddenly thought that speaking like this would make people think that the house was unlucky, and he frowned. He was about to persuade him when he heard the other party's voice.

"Have you ever thought about finding the source of the bloody smell?"

"Why didn't you find it? We even pried open the wall and still didn't find any trace of blood."

Although she didn't know what was going on, she had read a book once, which said that some blood would settle when mixed with the soil, and some blood would emerge only when the temperature changes.

The smell of blood is most likely due to the soil that was stained and not cleaned up.

But Zhou Xiaoyuan was not prepared to tell the other party, but looked at the housekeeper calmly.

"I think this house is probably cursed by someone, and it must be given to unrelated people to break it."

"Just because of this, you can just give it to anyone else. Why does it have to be me?"

"it's fate!"

The housekeeper said this suddenly, then pointed to the bun placed on the thing and showed a kinder smile.

"After all, it is a haunted house under the control of others. I still don't want to damage my moral character, so I have to choose someone who can match its aura."

"So there was that subcontracting?"

Afraid of being suspected by Zhou Xiaoyuan again

, the housekeeper nodded seriously.

Then she was worried that she would be disgusted by those people who took advantage of others, so she opened her mouth to add a few more words.

"It's not a loss, girl. You have to know that the place is much better than the house you are in. There are a lot of furniture in it, all of which were purchased later and are made of high-quality wood."

"Do you really have to send it out to crack it?"

"Yes, this is what the master asked the eminent monk to say. It seems to mean that this destined person will increase his merits and stay away from poverty in the future."

Zhou Xiaoyuan naturally didn't believe this, but when she thought of the two-part house, she still had some thoughts in her heart.

After much hesitation, she turned her attention to the butler.

"To be honest, I don't believe these things. What happened to those people who bought the house? It's very possible that they have evil intentions in their minds. How about you go in with someone else and give it a try?"

"What are you saying? One or two may indeed be their problem, but four or five in a row cannot be a human problem, right?"

"Besides, I really don't want to continue struggling at such an old age. It would be better to give the house to a destined person as the master said and not be greedy for ill-gotten gains."

When saying this, the housekeeper deliberately coughed twice, showing a painful look.

"Speaking of it, I started selling my yard. My health is getting worse and worse. I'm afraid it's really a curse."

"It would be difficult for you to sell this house without suffering retribution."

"That's not right. I have made it clear to everyone. It was because they were greedy for cheap that they met..."

The housekeeper also knew that he had gone too far, so he immediately stopped and looked carefully at Zhou Xiaoyuan, who had remained silent.

And Wu, who also noticed his movements,

, immediately pulled him to his side and looked at the man in front of him defensively.
