Zhu Jiayu told Song Jiangmei about her plan, and finally said, "Since he died while robbing government silver, his body can only remain in Heling. This jade pendant is your way of giving back to your mother and stepfather."
“You could say that Wei Qinglou didn’t want to make a big deal out of their past friendship, and that he also wanted to save Song Qingzhang, but he didn’t have time. The only thing he could do was return this jade pendant to you.”
"When it comes to government silver, merchants would probably avoid it like the plague. They wouldn't dare to verify the truth of your words. As for Wei Qinglou, they probably wouldn't dare to test him easily either. They would even rather forget about Wei Qinglou and forget about this matter, and they wouldn't bring it up on their own initiative."
"As for Song Qingzhang, he had a grudge against Wei Qinglou in the past, which the Shang family knew. So his motive was to frame Wei Qinglou, but he didn't expect to be so reckless and end up losing his own life instead."
"Remember what I said. When you return to Yujing, don't give yourself away in front of the Shang family."
After Zhu Jiayu finished speaking, he noticed that Song Jiangmei looked stunned, and couldn't help but ask with a smile, "What's wrong with you?"
Song Jiangmei looked at her: "You've already thought this through?"
Zhu Jiayu hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
The girl's calm demeanor gave people a sense of reassurance.
Song Jiangmei took the jade pendant, then suddenly hugged Zhu Jiayu, choking back tears as she said thank you again.
She had been alone for so long that she had even forgotten what it felt like to have someone wholeheartedly caring for her.
But today she remembered, and will always remember, that someone had appeared in her life, which was as desolate as winter. From then on, the east wind gently blew, and countless flowers bloomed in abundance. She finally saw the beautiful light of day and the vibrant spring.
Zhu Jiayu patted her back and said softly, "Go back to Yujing, take back everything you once had, and avenge your father."
Song Jiangmei released her, lowered her head shyly, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and asked her again, "And what about you?"
Zhu Jiayu thought for a while and said, "I have been in Heling for too long. Now that your business is finished, I have nothing to worry about and should return to Suiping. But one day, I will also go to Yujing."
"So, Amei, take good care of yourself and wait for me in Yujing."
Song Jiangmei nodded, then looked at her seriously: "You too."
"Also, please convey my apology to Qiu Lingyan. What happened with Liu Yasheng was my fault."
Zhu Jiayu smiled slightly and said, "Why don't you tell her yourself? She's easygoing. Even if you don't tell her, she's already let it go. After all, if it weren't for you, she might not have had the chance to see Liu Yasheng's true colors."
Song Jiangmei shook her head.
Ultimately, she didn't want to apologize for what happened with Liu Yasheng. To this day, she truly doesn't think she did anything wrong. When Liu Yasheng first met her, the lust in his eyes was undisguised. The reason she did what she did later was genuinely because she didn't want Qiu Lingyan to be deceived by him in the future.
But she should apologize to Qiu Lingyan for her arrogance.
