Although the young lady had always been at odds with Miss Linglong, she was very kind to the servants.
She grew up with the young lady and remembered all the kindness she had shown her.
Miss is not the kind of person who makes trouble for no reason; it's just that Miss Linglong has always been a thorn in her side.
This is a bizarre and inexplicable hostile relationship.
Upon closer examination, it doesn't seem inexplicable; her young mistress simply disapproved of Miss Linglong's behavior.
Miss Linglong is arrogant and looks down on Miss, seemingly disdainful of her.
Perhaps that's why the young lady was unhappy.
"Xiaoya, what do you think? Should I find a man and marry him myself?"
"Huh?" The maid was stunned.
"Hmph, that little bitch Yan Linglong thinks she has everything under her control, but I'll make sure she doesn't get her way." Yan Qingxue looked up and sneered at the bronze mirror.
The maid Xiaoya swallowed hard, paused for a few moments, and seemed to finally realize what her mistress had just said.
"Miss, please don't have such thoughts. If the city lord finds out about this, he will beat you to death. Even if the city lord doesn't beat you to death, the madam will deal with you."
Yan Qingxue rolled her eyes. Hadn't she been punished enough?
If she really gets married, she won't have the chance to tidy up anymore.
"It's decided. I'm going to go find a man and marry him." Yan Qingxue said firmly to her blurry reflection in the mirror, then slammed her hand on the dressing table and stood up abruptly.
Xiaoya was completely dumbfounded: "???" What?
Not just talk, are you really going to do it?
Xiao Ya quickly grabbed Yan Qingxue, who was about to leave, and was startled by her impulsive and decisive actions.
"Miss, how could you do this? You are a noble lady from a prestigious family, the eldest daughter of the main wife. Aren't you degrading yourself by doing this?"
"That's still better than being humiliated by that little bitch Yan Linglong." Yan Qingxue said through gritted teeth, her eyes filled with resentment and disgust, which Xiaoya could clearly see.
"Miss, marriage is not something to joke about. Even if you don't want to find a suitable family from a prestigious background, you should at least consider the other person's family background, right?"
If I just picked anyone, wouldn't Miss Linglong laugh at me even more?
"I don't care about anything else. I just want to deflate her arrogance and make her understand that I, Yan Qingxue, am not someone she can manipulate with a flick of her finger."
Perfect timing! There's been a lot of buzz around Jincheng lately, saying some kind of sacred place has appeared. Let's go check it out.
Just to see the excitement, visit the exhibits, have some fun, and take care of this matter while we're at it.
Aren't there lots of people visiting over there? This makes it convenient for me to find it.
Xiao Ya's face stiffened. She held onto Yan Qingxue's hand tightly, not daring to let go. Her stiff little face showed a hint of tears. She really felt that her young lady sometimes wasn't very bright.
His thinking is too unconventional!
What kind of mind could come up with something that would harm both the enemy and oneself?
"Miss, why don't you reconsider? Why don't you go and take a look at those young men from prominent families that Madam has found for you?"
"I'm not going! What kind of spoiled brats are they? They come from good families, have good status, and are outstanding, yet they look down on me, Yan Qingxue. I know my own worth."
I'd rather marry down and find someone who dotes on me; then I'd live a more comfortable life. If I have to be subservient to others, I might as well die!
After Yan Qingxue finished speaking, she rushed off to Jincheng Linghe Commercial Street. Xiaoya was dragged along, feeling that she could still struggle a little longer.
"Miss, why don't you wait for me to find some time to go out and inquire, to see if there are any men with clean family backgrounds and upright character? At least when looking for a man, his character must be good, right?"
Yan Qingxue paused, realizing she had actually taken his advice to heart. She turned to look at Xiao Ya, who was clinging to her leg and wouldn't let go, and wholeheartedly agreed.
"Yes, that's right."
Although she listened to his advice, she was quick to act, saying, "I'll go look for it myself first, so it won't bother you to help me."
Xiaoya shed two lines of hot tears. She felt that she couldn't struggle anymore. With Miss's stubborn nature, she was determined to go to Jincheng Linghe Commercial Street.
Although she also really wanted to see this place, which the government had renamed Linghe Commercial Street.
But that's not how I want to get through it.
Jincheng Linghe Commercial Street.
Xiao Ya followed Yan Qingxue around the castle, going back and forth several times already. Yan Qingxue's eyes revealed an undisguised fervor.
Previously, she had only heard about it from others, so she wasn't particularly shocked by what she heard. But now that she saw the actual castle, Yan Qingxue couldn't resist the urge to go inside and explore what kind of magnificent structure it was.
But the soldiers guarding the castle wouldn't let her in. She begged and pleaded with them, but to no avail. Yan Qingxue paced back and forth at the castle gate, scratching her head and itching with desire.
"Miss, although this place is stunning, look at the layers upon layers of soldiers surrounding the castle, making it impossible for us to get in. Don't even think about how to get in."
You ran out without even saying hello; Madam will be very worried if she can't find you.
And didn't the city lord also inform you that he has already sent a letter to the He family, saying that the He family might reply in the next few days?
"If they send word that they can't find you, won't the city lord be furious with you?" It's like her young lady is deliberately walking right into the city lord's wrath.
No wonder she's never been well-liked by the city lord; her personality is completely opposite to Miss Linglong's.
Yan Qingxue's burning gaze was fixed on the castle, her attention completely focused on it, without even glancing at Xiaoya, and she casually echoed her words without any distraction.
"Oh, you mean this? I've already decided, I'm not going back. I'll find someone to marry nearby, so it'll be convenient for me to come here every day."
Xiaoya was stunned again: "What? Marrying into Jincheng? That's it?"
"Xiaoya, quickly find an inn nearby to stay in. I'll come back tomorrow," Yan Qingxue excitedly instructed Xiaoya, turning her head slightly.
Xiaoya: "..." If she really had to watch her young lady fall into depravity in this golden city, wouldn't she be beaten to death by her madam when she got back?
"What are you still standing there for? Let's go, let's go." Yan Qingxue pushed Xiaoya and walked back, but her gaze was fixed on the castle behind her, reluctant to leave.
Only after feeling like she had bumped into a 'wall' and hearing Xiaoya let out a wail did Yan Qingxue turn her head to look at Xiaoya, who was clutching her head in pain. Her gaze then passed through Xiaoya and landed on the boy who stood there, staring blankly at the castle.
"Hey kid, are you blind?"
