Chapter 55: The Old Madam of the Marquis's Mansion Is Extremely Overbearing!

Yun Qian, seeing this, knew her mind was set and eventually proposed, "If you don't have enough money to buy the house, you can borrow from me."

"Thank you," Shao He said, before leaving.

The next morning, Shao He followed a broker to see the house. They arrived at a compact two-entry residence. Though small, the residence had rockeries, a pavilion, a gallery, a garden, and a pond—it was small but had it all.

"Miss, you are lucky. It's rare to come upon such a nice estate. Plus, there's a bamboo grove at the back where you can relax and keep cool during summer," the broker praised lavishly.

Shao He took a look around, and although the broker's description was somewhat exaggerated, the house was indeed nice.

"I wonder about the price..."

The broker stretched out one finger, grinning, "One hundred taels of silver."

"That cheap?" Shao He's eyes widened.

A typical two-entry residence, even if not renovated, would cost at least one hundred and fifty taels.
