Although there was no conclusive evidence that Ma Chengzhi was the one to lend the money, he still went to the government office and was interrogated.

When Ma Chengzhi returned home dejected, Xu Gui sent someone to ask for more items. With the money in, where did the money come from?

Ma Chengzhi took out the stone he had bought at the stone shop, but the master gardener Xu Gui had taken along exposed him on the spot.

These so-called high-grade stones and marbles were nothing more than ordinary ores casually dug up from the mountains. They were not worth a single cent.

Ma Chengzhi was dumbfounded. He was just a country bumpkin, how could he know what was real and what was fake?

Looking at how pretty the stone was, and listening to the manager of the stone shop swearing with all his heart, he thought that it was all true.

Now that he thought about it, that was nothing but a huge lie that the profit-seeking manager had told him in order to swindle a huge profit.

What was laughable was that he really thought he'd found a treasure and wouldn't even let his parents touch it.

But now, no matter what, it was too late!

After a series of heavy injuries, Ma Chengzhi finally collapsed. He cried for his father to beg for forgiveness, but he didn't know where to start.

After all, they had already paid for the goods. If one was willing to fight, the government would be unable to control the business!

He originally wanted to return the goods from the store's shopkeeper, but the shopkeeper had already disagreed. How could Ma Chengzhi beat them?

Later on, he even went to the "Xu Family Villa" and insisted that Zhao Yunwan come out to see him.

Since it was the time to pack up the net, how could Zhao Yunwan not see him?

After instructing the servants to bring Ma Chengzhi to the hall in the front yard, Zhao Yunwan, accompanied by a bunch of maidservant's wife, went to the front yard in a reserved and elegant manner.

He just couldn't be greedy!

What good consequences could there be for her that should not belong to her?

If they were lucky, they would run into a dumb guy. Who knows, they might even be able to get some benefits out of it.

However, if they were unlucky and met with a grudge like Zhao Yunwan, it would be terrible.

Looking at Ma Chengzhi, who was kneeling on the floor with tears flowing down his face, Zhao Yunwan pinched the handkerchief and covered her nose and mouth, rolling her eyes unceremoniously.

"Young Mistress, you have to avenge me!"

"Someone must have set this up on purpose. Otherwise, how could so many coincidences happen at such a critical juncture?"

Zhao Yunwan calmly raised her brows. She thought that Ma Chengzhi had a sharp mind, but unfortunately, he didn't use it on the right path.

After organizing her thoughts, Zhao Yunwan sighed deeply and said, "How can I redress your grievances? You are not a member of my Xu Family Villa, if I were to make a move, you should at least be famous, right? "

Ma Chengzhi suddenly opened his eyes wide, and anxiously said: "This little one is willing to sell myself to Xu Family Manor, going up the mountain of blades and going down the sea of flames, and not declining at all!"

Zhao Yunwan instantly frowned, a trace of coldness flashed past her eyes: "It's a pity that my 'Xu Family Villa' is not lacking in people, Young Master, why do you have to be wronged and become a lowly servant?"

Ma Chengzhi was at his wit's end. He could only kowtow and beg, "Please help me, Young Mistress!"

"This little one has nowhere to go. I hope, young mistress, for the sake of our friendship since we were children, can save this little one!"

Looking at Ma Chengzhi, who kneeled in front of the hall and kowtowed, Zhao Yunwan's heart did not have a single ripple.

If he didn't have that kind of intention back then and even pulled Chen along, she wouldn't have done that.

Zhao Yunwan raised her teacup and took a sip. She pursed her lips and gently caressed Qing You's hand as she said indifferently, "Young Master Ma, I can help you solve this problem."

"But I want to advise young master that there is nothing in this world that can go unearned. If you want people to not know about it, do it yourself."

"Moreover, I do not think myself as a foolish and ignorant woman. You should know what you have done. I only hope that you can understand something after this matter."

"Don't be mean, don't be kind and don't be mean."

Ma Chengzhi's face instantly turned green and red, then turned pale.

Perhaps he had never thought that there would be such a day!

He thought that everything he had done was flawless, but how could he allow himself to do as he pleased when everything was under Zhao Yunwan's control?

In the end, Ma Chengzhi still signed the contract and became a normal worker in the "Xu Family Villa". He was normally responsible for dressing the crops in the fields.

As long as he didn't want to get too close to Zhao Yunwan, she wouldn't do anything to him after that.

Moreover, on the account of Zhao Yunchen, if Ma Chengzhi was able to change his life in the future, perhaps Zhao Yunwan would be able to resolve the contract ahead of time and give him back his freedom.

This matter had been successfully resolved, and Zhao Yunwan had fully recovered the "arrears".

Ma Chengzhi's parents were afraid that they would be involved in a lawsuit. When they heard that "Xu Family Manor" had resolved this matter, they sent over egg gifts in gratitude.

Although the《 Xu Family Manor》 never lacked these unremarkable things, Zhao Yunwan still let the servants take it and directly give it to Ma Chengzhi.

However, Zhao Yunwan had underestimated the thickness of Ma Chengzhi's skin.

The fact that Ma Chengzhi had sold himself into the "Xu Family Villa" had somehow spread throughout the entire Pingzhai Village overnight.

Two days later, Zhao Yunwan prepared to go to the nearby barren hills to check out the terrain and soil.

With the help of Chun Yun and Chun Lan, he had changed into a set of more suitable clothing for travel.

The top was a thin cotton-padded jacket. The outer layer was covered by a light minced fern. Under the skirt were two pieces of grey skirt with auspicious clouds drawn on them. Inside the skirt were tied pants.

Such a set of clothing was more suitable for travelling and working.

Although the normally heavy and gorgeous clothes looked good, it was too much of a burden to go out and climb the mountain.

When the carriage reached the foothills of the eastern part of the village, it stopped and Chun Yun helped Zhao Yunwan out of the carriage.

Just as he was about to go up the mountain, he saw Ma Chengzhi, who was rushing over from the side.

"Young Mistress, are you going up the mountain? Let me lead the way! I'm the most familiar with this field! "

Zhao Yunwan suddenly stopped. With a frown on her face, she asked, "What are you doing here?"

Ma Chengzhi didn't seem to notice her cold expression and led the way eagerly. "I heard that Young Mistress is going to check the mountain today, so I thought it would be better to have someone to lead the way."

"Please rest assured Young Mistress, I've done all the work in the Manor."

"The overseer specifically allowed me to go home to rest. Who knew that I would see Young Mistress just as I walked over here? Isn't it a coincidence?"

Zhao Yunwan glanced at him doubtfully. Suddenly, she remembered that Ma Chengzhi's home seemed to be in the eastern part of the village. Could it really be a coincidence?

Perhaps he saw the doubt in Zhao Yunwan's eyes, Ma Chengzhi continued, "Although this mountain doesn't look big, the terrain is still quite complicated."

"If someone who isn't familiar with the route rashly enters, they might get lost."

"Besides, there are a lot of wild animals in the mountains. In order to ensure the safety of Young Mistress, it's better to let this little one lead the way!"

Hearing this, Chun Xiang instantly tensed up and tightened her grip on Zhao Yunwan's arm.
