The prominent families in the central city have been in trouble recently because of the issue of the next head of the family.
The fourth young master Tan Pingyu rubbed the heirloom jadeite on his fingers, motionless as a mountain.
Half a month later, in Lu Town, the tide rose and a pale and thin beauty, Yu Ping, was brought in.
A kind-hearted cloth shop couple took him in.
However, the cloth shop's son offended the Ma family, the most prestigious family in the town, and disaster struck.
The fifth young master, Ma Tingjun, led the wolfdog, his leather boots ran over the threshold, his handsome face was filled with cruelty.
"The cloth store's debt——"
Before he finished speaking, the wind blew through the hall carrying a delicate fragrance.
Lord Ma Ting squinted his eyes and saw a stunning figure emerging from behind the curtain.
The entire hall was as silent as cicadas, except Yu Ping who didn't take it seriously, with a faint smile on his lips.
"I am willing to work as a cow or a horse for the Fifth Master."
Lord Ma Ting sneered when he heard this.
"You?" He leaned closer, feeling a strong sense of pressure. "How much are you worth?"

In less than March, the most talked about thing in Lu Town was that Master Ma Wu fell for a beauty of unknown origin.
"Have you heard that Yu Ping..."
Suddenly silenced, his jaw tilted toward the door.
I saw Yu Ping holding a piece of cloth, holding an oil-paper umbrella at an angle in his hand, and looking like he was hurrying on his way.
Half of her porcelain-white face was exposed under the edge of the umbrella. It was astonishingly beautiful in the misty rain in the south of the Yangtze River. She looked like a vixen in a Chinese chat room.
It is said that in order to make him smile, Ma Tingjun tried all his tricks and wished he could tie a dog leash around his neck.
But Yu Ping narrowed his eyes and smiled softly, not buying his fault at all:
"I'm worthless, how dare I ask Fifth Master to bother me."

Later, things changed and people changed.
Yu Ping disappeared for three years, and it was said that there was a lot of bad luck.
Ma Tingjun ran a bank in the hub city, but lost all his money.
As a last resort, he borrowed the Tan family's debt, but it still fell into the sea and made no profit.
Debt collectors surrounded the bank.
Mr. Ma Ting lamented the impermanence of things in the world and thought that his life would not be long.
The one who couldn't let go the most at this time was actually Yu Ping.
Suddenly I heard a familiar laugh——
The person who came was wearing a straight suit, and his emerald finger ring glowed green. Lifting Mr. Ma Ting's chin with the tip of his leather shoe:
"How much money is enough to buy Fifth Master's life?"
Small Theater
"I asked why the boat was so bumpy. It turned out to be you guys singing and singing every night."
"Our fifth master is as strong as a tiger."
"Our fifth master is as strong as an ox."
