Triplets: Lucky Mommy is a Beautiful Badass

182 The Richest Person in Northern Liang 6

Qi Qingyao was talking as she ate. Gleefully, she added, "I'm an ordinary and cliche person. And I like money! That's why Little Yan is my grandfather."

Jiang Yeqian remained discontented as before. "The Head Grand Secretariat is also quite rich."

"Do you know the Head Grand Secretariat or something?" Qi Qingyao could not help but turn to look at Jiang Yeqian who had been speaking on behalf of the Head Grand Secretariat in such a curious tone.

"No, I don't." Jiang Yeqian's lips were slightly parted.

"Then, why do you keep speaking up for him?" She was beginning to find this strange.

"That—that is because I think scholars are really cool." Jiang Yeqian racked his brains as he shared his answer.

"How filthy!" Qi Qingyao rolled her eyes, "A head grand secretariat must be dirt poor!"

Jiang Yeqian was just about to retort when Qi Qingyao added, "If he were rich, that means he's corrupt and has definitely accepted a lot of bribes."

Jiang Yeqian, "..."

Qi Qingyao noted his gaze that expressed that he was not to be outdone and thought to herself, 'Could this be that this guy never had the chance to study and that's why admires scholars so much?'

Qi Qingyao consoled him.

"There's no need for you to worship the Head Grand Secretariat. What's there to worship about these poor officials? Look at the richest guy! He is the one with the cash at home. He never has to worry about food or clothes, and is also clever enough to not get involved in court disputes. He is only focused on getting money! As long as he doesn't take a step out of place, he'll be the pillar of Northern Liang's economy!"

"..."

Jiang Yeqian was speechless. He devoured his meal vehemently!

Night time.

In the room at the end of the corridor.

A man with his long hair simply tied with a white ribbon and a lucky, fat cat in his arms, was looking at Dong Jing who had just entered as he ran his fingers through the cat's fur.

"Did you find anything?" He opened his eyes lazily, displaying a sense of languid idleness.

Dong Jing respectfully passed the information over to his young master.

Lu Yan flipped through the document.

"Qi Qingyao, a citizen of Linquan Village in Baishui Town. Gotten pregnant out of wedlock and gave birth to triplets…"

Lu Yan could not help but frown just reading up till this point. The furrow of his brows became even tighter when he reached the end of the document. Lifting his black eyes, his gaze was somewhat cold. "Is she actually related to Master Li Qinglian and Su Hexiao?"

Dong Jing hurriedly looked down and explained, "This was gathered from Heir Pei's side. We had intentionally sent someone there to gather news. Heir Pei had indeed been treated and cured by her. The prescription they got was indeed Su Hexiao's. There is no mistake."

"We have also looked into her connection with Master Li Qinglian. She's currently constructing a small building in Linquan Village. Despite the size of the area being only a thousand square feet, there's a lot of mechanisms and doorways within the building. We redrew some of the blueprints and got some masters to appraise them. There is no mistake that this work was done in Master Li Qinglian's hand."

"..." Lu Yan casually tossed the report to the side.

His right hand was still combing the cat in his arms.

The white cat's eyes were partly squinted as it laid in its master's arms unctuously. It had even stretched out its tongue to lick at its master's fingertips. Lu Yan paused before lowering his head to throw it a look. Seemingly embarrassed, the white cat retracted its tongue and hurriedly splayed itself out on his lap in an obedient and cute manner.

Dong Jing continued, "Master, if you really bought the Red Face Flowers as well as the Lark Fruits and Condorvines from the woman, then she is definitely not a book we should judge by its cover."

"..."

To be able to harvest Red Face Flowers, Lark Fruits, and Condorvines that were usually difficult for ordinary people would indicate that she may be a powerful individual.

Not to mention she now also seemed to be connected to Su Hexiao and Master Li Qinglian.

He, Lu Yan, was not interested in Su Hexiao. However, his elder brother was.

He was personally quite interested in Master Li Qinglian. That man was the generation's greatest master architect. He was thinking of inviting the talented architect to design him an attached mansion!

It seemed that…

He could not do anything but accept this grandchild of his.
