A little devil has arrived at the Marquis's mansion, and all the powerful officials in the cour

Jin Yu Lou was Su Xuance's most lucrative business in the capital.

On the first floor, the storyteller vividly recounts folk tales on stage, earning money through tips and tea.

The second floor is the dining area, where you can find all kinds of delicious food from around the world, and the taste is extremely authentic.

The third floor has private rooms where you can read any books, enjoy tea, and chat about anything and everything.

His entourage consisted of powerful and influential figures from the capital, earning thousands of bushels of grain daily.

"A month ago, a shop opened across the street that competed with us, and it had a very similar name, called Manyulou."

At first, I didn't take it seriously, but unexpectedly, our business plummeted after Manyulou opened.

Jiang Huaijin took a sip of tea, frowned, and wondered why it was bitter.

He looked at Su Xuance and, seeing that the other's hands were empty, slowly lowered his head.

Renbao was adding Coptis chinensis powder to the teapot when she noticed his gaze. She looked up and said, "Uncle, you're too hot-tempered. Eat some Coptis chinensis to cool down!"

Jiang Huaijin forced down the mouthful of bitter tea he was about to spit out, and forced a smile: "Thank you so much, Renbao."

He's so angry, business is bad, he's suffering more than if he'd eaten bitter herbs.

"What evidence do you have to prove that Man Yulou used evil magic?" Su Xuance asked calmly.

Jiang Huaijin's eyes widened: "Otherwise, how do you explain that Jin Yu Lou was close to closing down as soon as it opened?"

Renbao picked up a candied fruit and put it in her mouth to chew, her cheeks puffing out. She had been listening for a while, and only now did she realize what was going on.

"Father, you're the owner of Manyulou?" Renbao looked at Su Xuance, his round eyes widening in shock.

Su Xuance felt a chill run down his spine.

Oops!

I had always told Renbao that his family was poor.

Before he could even consider his words, Jiang Huaijin spoke up: "Yes, not only does Manyulou belong to your father, but Shengxing Casino, the largest gambling den in the capital, and tea houses... all belong to him. Renbao is the richest heiress in the world."

I watched Renbao's expression change from shock to disbelief, and then to "You deceived me."

Su Xuance had lost his ability to speak.

Destroy it.

Jiang Huaijin finally sensed that something was wrong. His gaze darted between the father and daughter, and he hesitated before asking, "What's going on?"

"Wow!" Renbao cried out.

"Father is lying! Mother is lying!"

With a single step, she was about to run outside.

Su Xuance swept her up in his arms and held her close, coaxing, "It was Father's fault, I shouldn't have lied to you."

Jiang Huaijin got goosebumps just listening to this. This voice, which was so gentle it couldn't be gentler, was actually spoken by a tycoon who could stir up the world's trade routes with a flick of his wrist!

Su Xuance glanced at him, and seeing Renbao pouting and ignoring him, he helplessly touched her cheek with his own and continued to coax her, "You were really wrong."

Jiang Huaijin put down his teacup, marveling at the sight.

Is this still the master he knows, who appears to be indifferent to worldly affairs but is actually cunning and shrewd?

Renbao grumbled, turning her head away from Su Xuance: "Renbao is very angry. Does Daddy think I eat too much, so he hid the money in the house and doesn't give me any food!"

"You're still not feeding Renbao? Master, you're being a bit heartless." Jiang Huaijin raised an eyebrow, his face full of disapproval.

Renbao joined in, shouting in his childish voice, "Utterly depraved!"

Jiang Huaijin couldn't help but chuckle, waving his hand dismissively: "Renbao, Uncle will take you to Jinyulou. Eat whatever you want!"

Renbao immediately reached out to him, saying, "Uncle, hug me!"

Su Xuance felt as if an arrow had pierced his heart, his face filled with worry.

He was genuinely afraid that Renbao would one day be kidnapped by someone using food.

.

Donkey rolls, glutinous rice cakes, radish cakes, sticky rice balls...

Roasted lamb, chicken in black bean sauce, braised goose and duck...

Crispy tendon, ginger shrimp...

In the private room of Jinyulou, a table was laden with a dazzling array of delicious and visually appealing dishes.

Jiang Huaijin watched as Renbao ate plate after plate, shaking her little head and smiling with her eyes crinkling when she ate her favorite dish, before stuffing it into her mouth again.

His astonished gaze fell on her round belly, and he hesitated, looking at Su Xuance with a complicated expression.

He finally understood why Su Xuance had said his family was poor.

They're genuinely worried that Renbao will overeat.

"Renbao will eat here every day from now on, it's so delicious!" After finishing the last dish, Renbao lay back in her chair with a satisfied burp. She patted her belly, "My tummy is so lucky to have come to this world with me!"

Su Xuance rubbed his temples and said to her, "Renbao, we really can't eat anymore today."

"I know, I won't eat it!" Renbao playfully held up two chubby little fingers. "Renbao promises, Renbao does it!"

What a lively character! Jiang Huaijin laughed heartily. Through the window, he could see the bustling scene at Manyulou across the street.

His smile froze, and he angrily went to close the window.

He took only two steps before circling back to Renbao's side, a fawning smile on his face: "Renbao~ I heard you can tell fortunes with your fingers, so you must be good at feng shui too, right? Could you take a look at the feng shui of Jinyulou?"

Renbao nodded: "Sure!"

Jin Yulou belongs to my father.

What belongs to Father is hers!

Renbao jumped off the chair, walked to the window, looked out, and pointed to the eaves: "Someone left a dead cat there."

Jiang Huaijin and Su Xuance exchanged a solemn glance.

Then Renbao said, "Under the peony flowerpot on the left side of the restaurant entrance, there's a black, dead crow."

"There is a dead bat under the flowerpot on the right."

Renbao leaned against the windowsill and could clearly see the location of the inanimate object.

Jiang Huaijin's expression changed drastically. No wonder the restaurant's business was bad; it must have been cursed!

"Renbao, is it possible to break the evil spell if we just find and throw away all three types of corpses?" Jiang Huaijin asked.

Renbao nodded his little head: "The other party used the Three Corpses Wealth-Blocking Technique. As long as we find it and burn it, everything will be fine."

Jiang Huaijin breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. It was good that the problem could be solved. He gave Renbao a thumbs up: "Renbao truly is a lucky star! He solved this major problem that had been weighing on my mind right away!"

Renbao looked at him: "Uncle, you're in for a bloody disaster lately, be careful!"

Jiang Huaijin nodded, not taking those words to heart. At the moment, he was focused on when to dig out the three corpses.

It's not dark yet, and if he makes a move, Man Yulou will definitely see it. It's better to wait until it gets dark.

Jiang Huaijin saw Su Xuance and Renbao off from Jinyulou.

"Hey, isn't this Manager Jiang? It's Mid-Autumn Festival today, and your shop is almost deserted. Why don't you come to my Manyulou earlier? We're all exhausted and have sore backs, we can't sit still at all."

Manager Cao of Manyulou grinned, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth, and said in a sarcastic tone.

Su Xuance frowned slightly and glanced at him.

Jiang Huaijin sneered: "No need. Don't be too smug, or you'll end up shooting yourself in the foot."

Manager Cao paused upon hearing this, and subconsciously glanced towards the location where the corpse was hidden in Jin Yu Lou. The other party should not know yet, otherwise, how could they be so calm?

"Uncle Yellow Teeth, there are two little devils on your shoulders. They are your children," Renbao suddenly said, pointing to Manager Cao's shoulder.

Manager Cao shuddered. He had indeed felt as if his shoulder had been pressed down and punched dozens of times in the past few days, and it was very painful.

He looked at Renbao, who clearly knew Jiang Huaijin, and his expression instantly turned contemptuous.

"Go away, what do you know, you little brat!"

If they were really haunted by a ghost, how come the master the employer hired couldn't tell?

The master even brought down Jin Yu Lou; he must have been incredibly skilled!

After Su Xuance picked up Renbao and put him into the carriage, he lifted the curtain.

Jiang Huaijin nodded to Su Xuance. He knew what to do and was just waiting for nightfall.
