No taboos

Chapter 364 Fat Head and Big Ears

Gao Wanli was unaware that the person who bullied her the most had just entered Champa through the south gate.

Third Sister hired a caravan.

We brought Aunt Wang back from Shanhe County.

Aunt Wang wants to take Xiao Mo with her.

Lin Wanmo declined a couple of times, but then readily agreed.

After Xu Yuan left, the four people in the alley took out the ancestral figures from the box.

They also got in touch with Xu Huanyang, who was still on the road to the underworld.

Grandpa Shen was responsible for telling Xu Huanyang about A Yuan's current situation in detail.

Xu Huanyang did not object to Grandpa Shen's arrangement.

Even if he loved his son dearly, he couldn't bring himself to object under these circumstances.

Third Sister will be rolling in money, with a luxurious motorcade.

They came all the way from Luocheng to transport everyone from Shanhe County to Champa.

The price is one hundred and fifty taels of silver.

The convoy was also accompanied by guards, cooks, and other personnel.

In the past, Lin Wanmo would never have been willing to ride in such an expensive car.

Even if someone else pays and she doesn't have to pay herself, she won't sit down.

But now, Lin Wanmo has adjusted her mindset.

She's not the kind of person who forces herself to endure hardship.

When Xu Yuan first started earning money, he gave his stepmother several hundred taels of silver at once.

She will still live frugally and save all her money to help her stepson get married.

With Xu Yuan's current achievements, he no longer needs to worry about major life events.

Moreover, the amount of money they were bringing home was increasing.

Lin Wanmo felt that my family's life no longer had to be as hard as before.

Moreover, Lin Wanmo had already discussed it with Aunt Wang. This time when they went to Champa, San Niang Hui would be responsible for collecting various materials, and Lin Wanmo would make new medicine cabinets and heart scales for them.

This was actually the result of Xu Yuan's discussion with Aunt Wang and his stepmother during the Spring Festival.

A stepmother cannot directly sell her own handicrafts; this is a rule in Hegong Lane.

This rule involves the secrets of Hegong Lane.

However, the stepmother made it and gave it to Aunt Wang, who was also from Hegong Lane.

Just like what Xu Huanyang did back then.

The stepmother then felt at ease enjoying the filial piety from the third sister-in-law.

Xu Yuan intends to support the Third Sisters Society in order to suppress the Pingtian Society and squeeze out its living space.

The convoy took Aunt Wang and Lin Wanmo to the South City Patrol Station, where Fu Jingyu and Song Lu came out to greet them.

So Lord Xu has been promoted!

The entire Third Sister Society immediately offered their congratulations to the Ancestral Grandmother.

Aunt Wang smiled broadly, extremely happy.

I've said it before, my son Ayuan is a genius.

The convoy then took them to the Champa government.

The members of the Third Sister Society took their leave first. On the way back to Huode Jishetang, Fei Shiye and the others instructed Miao Yan: "The South City is too far away. We need to set up a property near the Zhancheng Prefecture so that we can be closer to our Ancestral Grandmother."

Miao Yan replied without hesitation, "Don't worry, I've already thought it through."

Miao Yan revealed his plan in detail: the Third Sister's Cham branch would open a new restaurant, a pastry shop, a gold shop, and a silk shop near the Cham government office.

These shops don't expect to make money, but they'll poach the best craftsmen from the city at high prices. From now on, we won't need to buy things from outside to show our respect to our ancestral master, such as three meals a day; we'll just get them from our own shops.

"You're a filial son, not bad at all!"

The teachers all praised it highly.

Miao Yan never expected that, years later, San Niang's series of "Zu Ji" shops would become the benchmark for high-end consumption in the city because they always maintained the highest standards.

And step by step, it expanded from Champa to the whole of Jiaozhi, with branches even spreading throughout Zhengzhou!

It became the most profitable business of the Third Sister's Association, surpassing its original business of selling medicine according to patients' needs.

Lang Xiaoba, who was guarding the entrance of the yamen, hurriedly welcomed Lin Wanmo and Aunt Wang inside as soon as he saw them.

He then sent a captain to report to the lord.

Xu Yuan came out to greet them, and he ran into Aunt Wang and Lin Wanmo outside Gao Wanli's courtyard.

As everyone happened to see, Gao Wanli and her "servants" were surrounding and intercepting Dafu.

Gao Wanli screamed at the top of her lungs, "Catch this beast! I'm going to roast it..."

Dafu was really terrified.

This woman is already so fat, and she still wants to eat me?
You should go on a diet!
Dafu ran wildly around the yard, flapping its wings and squawking loudly, calling for Fanzhezi to come and save it.

When Aunt Wang saw that Dafu was being bullied, her eyebrows shot up and she shouted angrily, "Stop!"

Gao Wanli ignored her completely.

Her men, seeing that she was an old woman, didn't take her seriously and continued chasing Dafu.

Aunt Wang was about to intervene, but Lin Wanmo stopped her, saying, "Auntie, you can't do it."

Lin Wanmo stared at Gao Wanli with a gloomy expression.

The moment Lin Wanmo saw this woman, he felt an inexplicable and extreme disgust.

From soul to body, I dislike this guy in every way.

Xu Yuan stretched out his hand, and the beast sinew rope flew out, transforming into a large net that landed and created a "maze" in the courtyard.

They stopped all the pursuers, but cleverly left the only passage for Dafu.

Dafu flapped his big webbed feet and plunged headfirst into Fanzhezi's arms.

At this moment, she no longer complained about the mess of food and kept nuzzling her head into Xu Yuan's arms.

It flapped its wings incessantly against its chest, squawking loudly, as if to say, "You scared me to death..."

Gao Wanli's men were blocked. After circling around twice and finding they couldn't get out, some of them used their skills to fly into the air, trying to get over the net's obstruction.

Unexpectedly, as they took flight, the net rose with them.

One of the martial arts practitioners was hot-tempered. He had been holding back his anger for the past few days, and finally couldn't hold back any longer. He roared, drew his weapon, and charged towards the large net.

He was using an uncommon weapon.

They were two peculiar curved blades, which, when put together, formed a long, curved pair of scissors.

He felt that his weapon was a perfect counter to the large net, so he rushed forward and slashed at it.

As expected, the large net was not cut open.

Instead, his own scissors were entangled and wrapped up layer by layer by countless hair-thin and flexible ropes that spread out from the large net!
Wu Xiu hurriedly tried to pull himself out, but instead of getting out, he was pulled by the rope and fell into the net, where he was also entangled by the ropes that were surging out!
This creature is like prey caught in a spider's web, screaming and calling for its companions to rescue it.

His companions were very eager to find him, running around everywhere trying to find him, but they just couldn't get past him.

Gao Wanli gritted her teeth and shouted angrily, "Xu Yuan! What do you mean?"

Xu Yuan was equally blunt: "I'd like to ask you the same thing. So many of you are bullying my goose—isn't that despicable? Gao Wanli, you're a sixth-rate craftsman, from a prominent family, and the deputy head of law in Champa. Don't you think this is beneath your dignity?"

The stepmother's eyes slowly narrowed.

He immediately understood why he felt an inexplicable aversion to this woman.

A new craftsman!
Gao Wanli felt extremely wronged, her face contorted with rage, and she pointed at the goose in Xu Yuan's arms, shouting, "I bullied it?!"
