What do you need to believe me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What do you think?\" the person behind her asked back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Luoyin blinked and suddenly said, \"Ah, I have a friend from Xiguang Residence, staying in the big communal sleeping quarters at the foot of the mountain. If you don’t believe me, you can ask him, a person named Mingzhu. Of course, he doesn’t know I’m actually a girl, so make sure you don’t slip up when you ask!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her convincing tone and mention of a witness seemed to make him believe her a bit, and he removed the hand from her neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Luoyin turned her head and finally saw what the person who had been throttling her for so long looked like.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A young man, probably about twenty years old. His hair was meticulously combed and tied back with a thin ribbon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was wearing a set of black... sleepwear?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he could prance around the villa in sleepwear, then he was either an esteemed guest or the villa’s owner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he was the owner, at around twenty years old...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Luoyin exclaimed, \"Are you the son of the owner of Tianhai Mountain Villa?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man neither confirmed nor denied, but seeing a patrol team approaching again, he picked her up and within moments, Jin Luoyin found herself thrown into a discreet yet luxurious room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then came the young man’s meaningful voice: \"There are too many people these days, and the woodshed is full; there’s no place for you. I’m short of a night watch maid here, so that’s you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah...?\" Jin Luoyin was momentarily dazed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What about the pay?\" She asked instinctively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man was stunned for a moment, and then asked, \"How much do you earn as a porter?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Luoyin estimated an amount and said, \"Three taels of silver a month!\" She paused and added, \"Xiguang Residence has great benefits: four days off a month, gifts for birthdays, bonuses for holidays, three months’ salary for New Year, and if you get sick, medicine costs are reimbursed at Jisheng Hall...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She rattled off all the tempting perks of Xiguang Residence, and the young man finally believed this girl dressed as a man truly came from Xiguang Residence—or if not, she was definitely very familiar with it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ll give you ten taels a month, including food and lodging, and medical care when you’re sick!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ten taels of silver meant little to Jin Luoyin, yet compared to Xiguang Residence’s benefits, it was extremely attractive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even without other perks, just the increase from three taels to ten taels would entice countless people to vie for the position.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Jin Luoyin was only here for the excitement; if she couldn’t find her brother here, she planned to search elsewhere and couldn’t afford to stay as the man’s night watch maid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, seeing the man’s increasingly dangerous eyes, she nodded stiffly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she didn’t agree, she might have truly ended up as an assassin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fine, I’ll do it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man gradually smiled and said indifferently, \"That’s more like it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He pointed to the small couch outside the room and said, \"You can sleep there. Remember to take off those dirty clothes!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked at Jin Luoyin’s clothes with disdain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Luoyin quickly clutched her dirty clothes tightly, intending not to take them off at all costs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man snorted in contempt and left the room. After a while, he returned with a set of maid’s clothes and threw them onto her head.\u003C\u002Fp>",635,"2026-06-06T06:55:14.863Z",1,"novelbin.me","7d42ed4ef095f975eefba1db6f24a6a519240087715aeeecf87c5d6e9a8be7b5","the-challenge-of-a-farmhouse-son-in-law-chapter-1687","the-challenge-of-a-farmhouse-son-in-law-chapter-1685",1812,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-challenge-of-a-farmhouse-son-in-law-cover.jpg"]
