Chapter 7: The Golden House Tibetans

Arriving at the pharmacy, Lin Luochen sighed with emotion, "The location is quite good, and there are a lot of people around."

"Miss, why do we need to install this around the box?" Chunyue asked, holding a small pulley in confusion.

"This is to make efficient use of space and to store different medicinal materials in different positions more securely," Lin Luochen explained, then pointed to the corner, "Carpenter, leave a space in this position, I want to grow some flowers and plants!"

"Why does Miss have so many strange things?" Chunyue asked in a low voice.

Xiaying glared at her and said, "Be careful what you say!"

Lin Luochen suddenly turned and said, "You can be cautious with your words, but you don't need to be here with me!"

Xiaying stepped forward and whispered to Lin Luochen, "Miss, there are two groups of people following us, that's why I asked Chunyue to be careful with her words."

Lin Luochen subconsciously glanced at the door, but didn't see anything unusual, "I didn't notice anything!"

Xiaying took the blueprint from Lin Luochen and whispered, "One group has been following us since we left, and the other group started following us from the candy stall, but they left after following us for one street."

Lin Luochen looked at Xiaying and asked, "Do you know kung fu?"

Xiaying nodded and said, "A little bit!"

Lin Luochen understood in her heart and said, "Don't worry! I just happen to want to use someone as bait! Capture him for me!"

In the backyard, Lin Luochen sat at the top, while Xiaying held down a servant with delicate arms, making him unable to move.

Chunyue held a wooden stick in her hand and said impatiently, "Tell us! Why are you following us? If you don't speak, I'll beat you to death with this big stick!"

Lin Luochen looked at the wooden stick in Chunyue's hand and chuckled, "Chunyue, you're too violent!"

Chunyue blushed at Lin Luochen's words, but then heard Lin Luochen say, "But I like it!"

"Miss, you're really mischievous!" Chunyue sighed.

"Miss, spare me! It's Madam An's order, I dare not disobey!" the servant pleaded repeatedly.

Lin Luochen smiled and said with a cold look in her eyes, "Give him a good beating! This man cannot be left alive! He must know that I am renovating the boudoir to meet with my husband in secret..."

"Miss! Don't say..." Xiaying pretended to panic and reached out to cover Lin Luochen's mouth.

The servant's eyes lit up with unexpected joy.

Xiaying increased the pressure on her hand and said, "Now that you know this secret, we can't let you live!"

The servant cried out in pain, and then begged, "Please spare me! I haven't been here today! I don't know anything!"

"Don't know? Hmph..." Chunyue struck him hard on the back, followed by several more blows to different parts of his body.

The servant continued to plead, and Lin Luochen stood up, saying with a cold look in her eyes, "The body cannot be left in this pharmacy. The pharmacy is the property of the Li family. Don't cause trouble for them!"

Lin Luochen, under the guise of the Li family's name, was afraid that the servant would go back and reveal the pharmacy's secrets!

After saying this, she left, giving a meaningful look to Xiaying. Xiaying received the signal and said, "Don't blame me! If you have to blame someone, blame yourself for knowing too much!"

With a swift move, she knocked the servant unconscious, and with Chunyue's help, they dragged him outside the wall.

After completing all this, the two of them went back inside, and Lin Luochen sat down with a cup of tea, savoring it slowly.

"Miss, it's done! When this servant wakes up, he will definitely go back to the mansion to report!" Xiaying reported.

Lin Luochen nodded, set down her teacup, and said, "Let's head back to the mansion!"

As Lin Luochen had expected, when the servant woke up and found himself still alive, he was overjoyed. Despite the pain all over his body, he managed to crawl back to the mansion.

He recounted everything he had seen and heard to Madam An, who raised her eyebrows and exclaimed, "Is this true?"

"Madam! My injuries are real! It's thanks to Madam's grace and protection that I can come back to report. I would never dare to lie!" the servant insisted.

Madam An raised her hand, her face filled with a fierce light, "Lin Luochen! You shameless little wretch, your days are numbered!"

The housekeeper also rejoiced and echoed, "I knew something was amiss! Preventing me from inspecting the courtyard, the real purpose was this!"

Madam An raised her hand and said with a fierce look, "Let's go! Let's see what this little wretch is up to!"

The housekeeper led a group of maids and servants and went to Lin Luochen's courtyard in a grand manner.

Madam An arrived at the courtyard, and two servants stood guard at the door. When they saw Madam An, they were so frightened that they knelt down and greeted her, looking nervous.

Madam An and the housekeeper exchanged a glance, indeed, something was fishy!

The housekeeper arrogantly ordered, "Get out of the way! Do you want to die? How dare you block Madam's path?"

The two servants quickly kowtowed, making loud "thuds."

"Get up! Open the door for me!" Madam An commanded.

The two servants looked at each other, very hesitant, and placed their hands on the door latch but didn't move.

The housekeeper signaled to her people, and the two servants were taken away.

"Madam is here! Madam is here!" the taken servants shouted, trying to alert the people inside the house.

The housekeeper slapped one of them, "Shut up! Don't even think about sending a message!"

Madam An led the group into the courtyard, and at the entrance to Lin Luochen's boudoir, Chunyue was standing guard.

Upon seeing them approaching, Chunyue immediately knelt down, looking very flustered. Her voice was very loud, "Madam, welcome! It's an honor to have Madam visit!"

The housekeeper coldly snorted, "Why are you speaking so loudly? Do you think we're deaf?"

As she spoke, she slapped Chunyue hard across the face, seeking revenge for the grudge from the previous encounter!

As the spring moon turned her body skillfully to avoid it, she shouted, "Madam is here!"

After this shout, Xia Ying came out of the house with a pale face. She knelt down and said, "Madam, please wait! Miss is not feeling well and is resting!"

"Resting?" the housekeeper sneered, "It's so dark outside and she's already asleep? I smell something fishy!"

She rushed into the house, but Xia Ying held onto her feet, not letting her pass no matter how she kicked and struggled.

"Hmph! It's so tense inside, I think there's something fishy going on in this house!" Madam An was furious. With a wave of her hand, the servants took Xia Ying away as well.

Madam An walked to the door and kicked it hard, breaking it open.

Inside the room, Lin Luochen was only wearing a bellyband, her smooth and white back facing Madam An...

Madam An's eyes widened, and her mocking laughter grew louder.

"Ah..."

A sharp scream echoed throughout the entire courtyard, as Lin Luochen cried out and wrapped the clothes at the head of the bed around herself.

Madam An looked closely and saw that the clothes at the head of the bed belonged to a man!

"You, Lin Luochen, you're having an affair!" Madam An was delighted in her heart, but her face showed anger.

"You... get out!" Lin Luochen shouted in panic.

Madam An sternly rebuked, "Get out? So you can be with a man? And you said I wrongly accused you the other day! This time, I want to see how you explain this to the master!"

The housekeeper was very shrewd and had already sent the servants to intercept the sedan chair of the master on his way back from the court. Today, Lin Luochen must be caught red-handed!
