Tong Xiangyu's eyes sparkled.
“I told you you don’t need to pay ten taels, nine taels will do.”
Chen Yan looked serious.
Tong Xiangyu was stunned for a moment, her heart churning. After fumbling around for a while, she finally picked out nine taels of silver and placed it on Chen Yan's counter.
Jiang Yuyan then walked to the side and began to draw conditions from the wooden box.
Luckily, it was a blank sheet of paper.
Chen Yan: "Alright, you can ask your questions now."
Jiang Yuyan took a deep breath, organized her thoughts, and then said, "What I want to ask Master Chen is, am I...am I the daughter of the 'Benevolent and Righteous Hero' Jiang Biehe?!"
Ask this question.
Jiang Yuyan stared intently at Chen Yan, her eyes wide open, as if afraid he would shake his head.
She's had enough of the hardship.
Finding Jiang Biehe, a powerful father figure, and living a life of luxury is her most cherished dream.
If Chen Yan shakes his head.
She didn't know if she could handle such a blow.
Tong Xiangyu also stared intently at Chen Yan. She had already spent nine taels of silver, and she couldn't let it go to waste; that would break her heart.
Fortunately, Chen Yan nodded.
With a gentle tap of his right folding fan against his left palm, Chen Yan gave an affirmative answer: "Jiang Yuyan, you are indeed the daughter of Jiang Biehe, the 'Benevolent and Righteous Hero'."
"Ha! Great!"
Tong Xiangyu was excited and cheered, pumping her fist.
Jiang Yuyan also breathed a long sigh of relief, finally letting go of all the burden in her heart.
Her father is Jiang Biehe, a chivalrous and righteous man. He is powerful, wealthy, and influential. If she finds him, she can live a life of luxury and elegance as a young lady.
Jiang Yuyan's eyes shone as she thought about the wonderful life ahead.
At this time.
Wuqing also came out. Wanwan had taken the Hundredfold Enlightenment Pill and was in seclusion practicing her skills. She would be in charge of serving Chen Yan tea and water for the next two days.
Earlier, she had also heard Chen Yan and others talking behind her. She was quite pleased to hear that Jiang Biehe was Jiang Yuyan's father.
This delicate girl has finally found someone to rely on. Anyone with a kind heart would be genuinely happy for her...
Chen Yan also noticed the smile in Jiang Yuyan's eyes.
But a smile played on her lips.
This woman is oversimplifying the issue.
Do you think that finding a powerful and influential father will guarantee a good life?
Innocent!
"Fine, I'll shatter your beautiful dream myself and earn some points for my despair."
Thinking of this, Chen Yan looked at Jiang Yuyan again and said with a smile, "Miss Jiang, you don't think that just because you found your biological father Jiang Biehe, you can live a life of luxury like a young lady, with everything done for you."
Jiang Yuyan was taken aback.
Tong Xiangyu was taken aback.
Wuqing was taken aback.
"Shopkeeper, isn't that right?"
Miss Jiang is the long-lost biological daughter of Master Jiang, who is also known as the "Benevolent and Righteous Hero," suggesting an exceptionally virtuous character. How could he possibly not ensure Miss Jiang lives a life of luxury?
Relentless questioning.
Tong Xiangyu and Jiang Yuyan both nodded, looking at Chen Yan with surprise.
Jiang Yuyan was even more worried that her beautiful dream would be shattered, and her voice trembled slightly: "Master Chen, do you think my father will disown me?"
“Your father will acknowledge you, but although Jiang Biehe is a famous hero, he is not as glamorous as you think. He is actually a gigolo.”
My dad's a gigolo?!
Jiang Yuyan was shocked, her mind racing with thoughts.
Tong Xiangyu and Wuqing also looked at Chen Yan in disbelief.
Jiang Biehe, with such a great reputation, is actually a gigolo?
Chen Yan said leisurely, "Jiang Biehe's current fame is due not only to his decent abilities and his interpersonal skills, but most importantly to his wife, Liu."
The Liu family is no small fry.
She's the goddaughter of Liu Xi, the second-in-command of the Eastern Depot. With the Eastern Depot as his powerful backer, how could Jiang Biehe possibly be doing poorly...?
Although Liu was born into a prestigious family, she relied on her godfather's connections to always put Jiang Biehe in a superior position, dominating the household and ordering him around.
Furthermore, she is jealous, petty, vindictive, ruthless, arrogant, and domineering.
Miss Jiang, think about it.
Even if Jiang Biehe really is your biological father, with a woman like Liu as your stepmother, do you think your life would be any better after you moved into the Jiang family?

Jiang Yuyan was shocked.
The beautiful dream I had woven in my heart shattered in an instant.
Her dream of a spacious and tidy house, beautiful and luxurious clothes, and several maids serving her was all like a bubble, easily burst.
Thinking of these things, her body trembled slightly, the bright light in her eyes gradually dimmed, and she lost all her previous vitality, appearing lifeless...
[Ding! The host has personally shattered Jiang Yuyan's beautiful dream, causing her to collapse, and has gained 1,000 Collapse Points!]
Hearing the notification in his mind, Chen Yan was overjoyed and decided to keep up the good work.
He continued, "Miss Jiang, let me tell you about the torments you'll encounter after you arrive at the Jiang family..."
Torture?
Upon hearing those two words, Jiang Yuyan's heart trembled once again.
Master Chen used the word "torture" to describe it; one can only imagine how miserable her life must be in the Jiang family.
Chen Yan: "First of all, when you went to the Jiang family, Liu slapped you in front of Jiang Biehe, showing no respect for you or Jiang Biehe at all."
You're not even allowed to have the surname Jiang.
I believe that you, born of humble origin, have disgraced the Jiang surname.
She instructed everyone in the Jiang family to call you "Little Dog" from now on...
"Ah! This is just too much!"
Tong Xiangyu and Wuqing exclaimed in surprise.
Jiang Yuyan also trembled, her face turning deathly pale.
"Still not breaking down? Here's some more juicy stuff for you!"
Chen Yan smiled wickedly to himself.
He slowly said, "Not only did Liu call you a puppy, but she also sent you to the kitchen to do the lowest servant's work, and even ordered the two fat women in the kitchen to bully you."
They beat and scold you every day, don't feed you, and lock you in the woodshed!
The night was cold and freezing; you were cold and hungry, and could only hold your mother's memorial tablet and weep softly..."
at last.
When Chen Yan said this, Jiang Yuyan broke down again, contributing 1,000 breakdown points.
Chen Yan continued, "This is not the worst of it. Liu Shi dislikes you extremely, and she dislikes your mother even more."
Although your mother has passed away, her memorial tablet remains, which you keep close to your body.
Backup ⑵qun 捌灸叁9硫④寺陆⊙
Because this is the last thing your mother left you, you cherish it very much.
After each time I feel wronged, I hug my mother's memorial tablet, as if I can feel her presence, which brings a little warmth to my cold heart.
But even this last bit of warmth from the Liu family will be destroyed.
In front of Jiang Biehe, she ordered you to personally chop your mother's memorial tablet into pieces with an axe and then throw it into the fire to burn.
You shed sorrowful tears, but refused.
Liu slapped you twice, making your cheeks swollen.
You looked at Jiang Biehe with pleading eyes again, but Jiang Biehe didn't dare to offend Liu Shi, so he could only sigh and turn his face away.
Left with no other choice, you could only tremble as you picked up the axe and personally shatter the last trace of your mother in this world, then throw it into the fire to burn it to ashes.
From then on, in this vast world, there was no place that could make you feel warm anymore…
