Washington, this huge fire that was ignited at night, lasted for almost half a day before it was extinguished.

During this half a day of great fire, the Jinyuan of the Forbidden Area had turned into a land of ashes.

Regarding this matter, Hua An Jiu was naturally suspicious in his heart.

He did not understand why among the four maids he had bestowed to Hua Jin Ge, one of them had simply died so crazily in vain, and it was even in this coincidental and unfortunate huge fire.

However, the crazy one was still unable to get anything out, and could only keep saying that there was a ghost in the Jinyuan.

There was a female ghost.

A dozen female ghosts with disheveled hair and severed arms.

This is crazy!

But, the servant insisted that it was caused by the Jinyuan's female ghost, this matter had nothing to do with Hua Jin Ge, no matter how suspicious he was, he could only guess in his heart.

Moreover, how could a fool like Hua Jin Ge have the ability to do such a thing?

Thinking about it, he suppressed the suspicions he had towards Hua Jin Ge.

However, what he didn't expect was that this matter wasn't over yet.

who was trapped in the Ancestral Hall did not attend the Hua Clan's banquet.

Because the storm from the plague had yet to subside, the fire from the Hua family had once again blotted out the sky and covered the earth.

The news regarding the female ghost that Si Er mentioned had spread through the entire Jinyuan.

In that moment, the news that the Hua Clan would decline without the protection of Queen Hua Xi Er spread among the commoners.

Hua Zhan Yuan was so angry that he could not even eat, so he just sat down in the hall and quickly left.

Because the Washington had been in the limelight recently, not only was it a plague, but this fire had also alarmed the Residence of Jing and Yin.

Lord Han of the Jing Zhao and Yin Residence thought the fire was very strange. If they wanted to check it out, he could not be absent. He could only accompany them, so he could not attend the banquet.

Thus, only one woman remained for such a banquet.

Hua Jin Ge was seated beside Hua Pian Qian. His eyes were dull as he looked forward, which did not attract much attention.

Liu Ying stood by her side, guarding her, but she also didn't reveal the slightest bit of abnormality.

Old Lady Hua was still sitting high up on her seat. However, before this, she didn't announce that she was going to eat first. Instead, she took an accounting book from the hands of the maidservant by her side, Qingxia.

Clearing her throat, she said in a low voice, "Since everyone is here, let me tell you about San Ya Tou's situation here."

San Ya Tou, of course, was referring to Hua Jin Ge.

Hua Jin Ge lowered his eyes as his heart skipped a beat. He had already kept a low profile to this extent, why did he have to do all sorts of things?

"San Ya Tou is going to marry into Southern King's Manor the next day. This was originally arranged by Emperor, so of course my Washington can't be disrespectful, this bill is for the shops and lands that Jiu Zun and I negotiated for for San Ya Tou.

As for the dowry and wedding clothes, San Ya Tou didn't have anyone by her side to help him. I had already asked the embroidery lady from the Sky Cloth Pavilion outside to prepare the wedding gown overnight, and the dowry was already prepared in my room.

Since Mistress Yun has passed away, Chen Xiang Yuan has suffered from a serious illness and is isolated in the Ancestral Hall. Yuejie, come here, take this account book and have a look at it.

After saying so much in one breath, Old Madam Hua seemed to be tired. She took two breaths before closing her eyes to rest.

By the side, Qingxia had already received the account book with both hands and passed it to Yuejie.

Yuejie's face sank the moment she opened the account book.

As he looked further down, his calm face turned from red to white to green.

There were so many changes in her expression, I wonder what kind of shops and fields the Old Granny had planned for Miss in the account book.

Liu Ying guessed as she looked at Yuejie's expression.

Then, he turned to look at her Miss, only to see that she was still as silent as before, and did not make a single move.

Stupid, stupid, Miss was really good at acting.

"Old Madame, Hua Jin Ge is just a fool. Isn't this kind of dowry too generous?"

Yuejie closed the account book, but was unable to endure the indignation in her heart, and questioned, "Furthermore, Southern King's Manor is as rich as a kingdom, we do not need our Hua Family's dowry."

"There's naturally not a shortage of Southern King's Manor, but San Ya Tou is."

The old Madame said as her eyes half-closed.

Qing Yun waved her hand and hurried over to help her up. "Besides, this is a decision that An Jiu and I made. I don't have any intention of discussing it with you."

"But, Hua Jin Ge is Master's daughter, Master will not agree to this dowry!"

The more Yuejie spoke, the angrier she got. In the end, she bit her lips until blood flowed out. From afar, it looked extremely frightening.

The accounting books concluded that the shop occupied almost half of the Washington's luxurious shops in the capital, and the same went for the fertile fields. All of the villas had very good harvests, and even the silver had to be given to Hua Jin Ge for three hundred thousand silver taels.

This, this was not marrying a useless fool, this was clearly even more generous than the dowry Hua Xi Er gave her when she went out!

"Why, do you think that the decision my old mother made on my son's behalf was not as correct as your concubine's? Or did you want to be in this house? You want me to give this position to you? "

The Old Granny was not someone to be trifled with. With a few words, she left Yuejie speechless, and could only kneel down in a hurry to make sure that that was not what she meant.

"Since that's not what you mean, then call Chen Shu to come in. We must set up those stores before noon tomorrow."

The old Madame waved his hands and the green light disappeared. She took the account book back from the Yuejie's hands and quickly walked out, handing the account book to Chen Shu who was kneeling outside the door.

Chen Shu took the account book and left.

"San Ya Tou."

Seeing Chen Shu walking further away, the old lady called out to him.

Hua Jin Ge's lips quickly moved, as if he did not hear the old lady's call.

"San Ya Tou!"

This time, the old lady increased the intensity of her words.

Liu Ying became anxious and wanted to go up to warn Hua Jin Ge, but she was stopped by the Old Madame's following words: "Liu Ying, look at what your Miss is muttering about."

"Yes, Old Madame!"

Liu Ying knelt in front of Hua Jin Ge as she received her orders.

Hua Jin Ge was still in a daze, but at this time, her mouth was chattering nonstop.

Should be repeating something.

"Ghost, female ghost, Si Er and Shi San, follow the female ghost! Female ghost, there is a female ghost in Jinyuan, Si Er and Shi San will follow the female ghost!"

Hua Jin Ge's voice was low, and reached Liu Ying's ears.

Female ghost? What is Miss doing?

"Do as I say. Repeat my words."

Almost inaudibly, a light voice entered Liu Ying's ears. After Hua Jin Ge finished reminding him, he continued to repeat the words "female ghost".

Although Liu Ying did not understand, but after being reminded by Hua Jin Ge, she could only follow suit.

After listening for a while more, he walked to the center of the hall and knelt down, saying: "Reporting to the old lady, Miss has been saying the entire time, Si Er and Shi San have followed the female ghost.

There are many female ghosts in Jinyuan, and they are very scary. Old Madame, our Miss must have been frightened by what happened last night, so we are really confused. "

Liu Ying's heart was perturbed, but when she said those words, she did not conceal the grief in her heart, and said.

"Miss was born stupid. Yang He was never an ordinary person, and during last night's great fire, Miss didn't sleep the entire night. Since last night, he has been like this ever since!"

After saying that, he squeezed out a few tears. It was a painful thing to say.

It was hard to believe that Hua Jin Ge was not completely frightened.
