"a gold mine? i see," song yixu nodded as if it was quite normal however a second later her eyes widened as she looked at yu dong and shrieked, " a gold mine?"

how come yu dong got her hands on the gold mine? why did she not get her hands on something this good?

yu dong flinched under the harsh pitch of song yixu's voice, she blinked her eyes and then rubbed her ears before saying, "there is no need to look so shocked.

i haven't agreed with the offer yet," if she was being honest, she wanted to agree with the offer that murong si had made to her but the amount of troubles that might come to her doorstep after she agreed, yu dong was not willing to face them.

when song yixu heard yu dong's response, she wanted to ask whether she had gone crazy to turn down such an offer but then she thought about how yu dong would be entangled in a mess after she became the owner of the gold mine and closed her mouth.

though the offer was indeed great when song yixu thought about it, a commoner taking control of the gold mine —— it might bring unprecedented dangers to yu dong's house. she pursed her lips and suggested after two seconds, "how about i take it under my name?"

yu dong raised her head and looked at song yixu who smiled at her and explained, "i might be just a merchant but i am well respected by the officials and my mother and grandmother used to work for the late empress and emperor. we have sent a lot of tributes to the imperial family including a glowing pearl."

"because of that, my mother's importance in the eyes of the officials including the court members grew. even now the imperial court is highly respectable towards my family," song yixu understood that with the position yu dong was in at the moment, she could not become an official. there was a possibility of buying a title but only a title up to rank fifth could be purchased.

yu dong arched a brow and then said to song yixu, "is this even a question that you need to ask?" she hadn't forgotten that it was because of song yixu's honest business that she was able to earn her first salary in this world. back then the two of them were not even acquainted and yet song yixu had remained nothing but truthful towards her principles so how could she not trust her?

when song yixu the solemn expression on yu dong's face she was both amused and touched. she pocketed the pouch of gold ores, she seriously comforted yu dong, "then i will have to make sure that i live up to your trust?"

while song yixu had yu dong's trust, she certainly did not have the trust of the ying family.

old master ying threw down the rug that he was holding in his hands and turned to look at old madam ying, "are you really going to continue sleeping like that?"

they have been looking for ying nan for a long time and yet they did not even find a strand of his hair. even the villagers stopped looking for him now, they now believed that ying nan was eaten up by a wild animal.

but old master ying did not want to believe it! how could he? without ying nan, his life would only get worse from here.
