Yan Qingxue never expected that after learning about her situation, her mother would still be thinking about finding her a husband, and directly invited a young master from Baicheng to the Green City Lord's Mansion.
It was half a month later when Yan Qingxue found out, by which time her work had just gotten on track.
She had just gotten the hang of things and was feeling quite comfortable when the news her mother suddenly sent was a devastating blow.
The messenger was Xiaoya. Zhao Shi could not see Yan Qingxue every day. Yan Qingxue usually left and returned to the mansion from dawn to dusk, and sometimes she was not even at home. So she could only tell the message to Xiaoya and ask Xiaoya to pass it on.
When Yan Qingxue heard this news from Xiaoya, she immediately became furious.
"What? Someone's here? In the manor?" Yan Qingxue, who had been lying paralyzed on the bed, suddenly sat up.
Xiaoya swallowed hard, somewhat unable to meet Yan Qingxue's gaze.
Lately, every time Miss comes back, she looks exhausted, as if she's become a completely different person. Every time she comes back, she takes a shower and falls asleep immediately. In short, she seems like someone you don't want to mess with.
It has to be said that being busy is the best cure for all madness. Being busy, I no longer feel sad about not having money, no longer gossip, no longer fight with Yan Linglong, and no longer swoon over the young master of the Qiao family.
Every time she opened her mouth to speak, Yan Qingxue's calm, expressionless face seemed to subtly convey the word "get lost."
“Miss, you, you... don’t look at me like that. This isn’t something I arranged. Isn’t it because Madam is worried about your marriage? The person is already in the manor. Why don’t you get ready, dress up, and go meet her? Go to Jincheng for a couple of days with her.”
"I just saw that you've been working pretty hard lately, so let's go out and relax—" Xiaoya's voice became weaker and weaker as she spoke. Seeing Yan Qingxue's calm face gradually turn cold, Xiaoya shut her mouth completely.
She is guilty; she shouldn't have spoken.
"Go back to my mother. I've been too busy lately and haven't had time to go to Jincheng with anyone. Let her take good care of the person herself." They didn't even tell her beforehand, acting unilaterally.
Yan Qingxue felt a bit stifled, and finally, too lazy to lash out, she uttered this sentence. Normally, she would have already rushed to her mother's side and started arguing with her.
Lately, she's been so tired that she doesn't even have the energy to argue; all she wants to do is sleep.
Besides, she had absolutely no interest in the young masters from Baicheng.
"Miss, there's something I'm unsure whether I should say it."
"If you think you shouldn't say it, then don't say it." Yan Qingxue, who had been furious, lay back down on the bed, pulled the blanket over her face, and completely ignored everyone.
Xiaoya hesitated for a long time before finally speaking, "Miss, to be honest, I think that young master from Baicheng didn't really come to see you. His purpose was to go to Jincheng for some fun."
Jincheng is so famous that its reputation has already spread to Baicheng.
The lady used the pretense of bringing the person over to Jincheng for sightseeing as a pretext to invite them over.
Even if you meet him, it's not guaranteed that it will work out; the chances of it succeeding are very slim.
Otherwise, you could take them to Jincheng for a visit. If things don't work out in the end, your wife won't blame you.
Then this matter won't be your problem anymore; it will be that young master Baicheng's problem.
In that case, Madam will be able to give up on this idea, and Miss, you can finally have some peace and quiet for a while.”
Yan Qingxue, who was originally half asleep under the covers, lifted the covers, glanced at Xiaoya, and suddenly grinned, revealing a smile that was rarely seen these days.
"Yes, you're right, that's a good idea. But what if they don't like me? No, I should say they wouldn't like me at all."
I'll do as you say and take the men to Jincheng for a visit.
I haven't been to Jincheng for a while, so I don't know what changes have taken place there.
I've heard that Jincheng has changed so much lately, it looks different every day. I'd like to spend some time there relaxing and having fun.
Little Sprout listened excitedly and nodded vigorously.
"Yes, Miss, in just half a month, those inexplicably appearing white buildings have spread throughout the entire Linghe District, turning the whole district into all kinds of shops."
You could spend several days there and still not see everything. The shops there sell everything imaginable; if you can think of it, you can buy it there.
It's not just the Linghe Commercial District; I heard that in Xinghe Town, which is next to the Linghe Commercial District, all the households living in that town have been relocated.
It seems that it's also going to be used for renovation; the area has already been renamed Galaxy Amusement Park.
I heard that they're planning to build a tourist attraction there.
I wonder what kind of strange tricks the Jincheng government will pull this time.
Yan Qingxue's eyes lit up when she heard this, but then her gaze dimmed. No matter how fun it was, she couldn't have time to go out and play every day. She was busy now, and although she was making money, she had fewer opportunities to spend it.
It was only a fleeting moment of gloom; though her face was tired, it was still radiant.
She lives a fulfilling life every day, learns many meaningful things, and earns so much money. Will she ever have to worry about not having the opportunity to spend it in the future?
"Xiaoya, go and tell your mother that I will talk to the people in Jincheng tomorrow and arrange for all of this month's rest time to be used for my outing with that young master from Baicheng."
She is entitled to four days off each month, which she can choose herself as long as it does not interfere with her official duties.
Seeing that her young mistress had finally grasped the point, Xiaoya nodded with a beaming smile.
"Okay, I'll go tell Madam."
Jincheng Linghe Commercial District.
In a hot pot chicken restaurant, Mrs. Yang looked downcast as she watched the girl flirting with her son, feeling incredibly annoyed and stifled.
She originally intended to make the girl's conversation with her son fall apart to annoy her son, but she didn't expect that she would mess things up.
Who would have thought that this girl, with her aloof nature, would actually fall for her son? Her son wasn't bothered at all; on the contrary, he annoyed her quite a bit.
This is a trend that is clearly getting better and better.
If things continue like this, won't it be successful soon?
