This situation caught Rong Qingqing somewhat off guard.
When Changlin told her that although he had found Tao'er's whereabouts, Tao'er did not want to go with the people he sent, she still couldn't quite understand.
Now, however, she understands her predicament.
It's all her fault; she sent someone to look for her too late.
She knelt down in front of Tao'er, took out a handkerchief, wiped away her tears, and then said earnestly, "Tao'er, I understand your situation and how you feel, but I hope you won't let down my grandmother's love for you. In life, we will always encounter many setbacks, but we cannot be defeated by them. We should become stronger with each setback and show those who have harmed us that even if they suppress and humiliate us, we can still bounce back and live well, making them furious."
Upon hearing this, Tao'er stared at her in a daze, a complex mix of emotions welling up inside her.
I feel that the young lady is different from before. As timid as she is, she can actually spout such profound truths.
To be honest, Tao'er was really surprised.
Rong Qingqing said self-deprecatingly, "You may not know, but my situation isn't much better than yours. When I got into trouble, you had already been sold off by the Chen family. Actually, I was also tricked into going to a brothel, ruining my reputation, and was even jilted by the Third Prince. Later, my father drugged me and forced me into a bridal sedan chair to marry into the Marquis of Weiyuan's family to bring good luck. In the eyes of the world, I'm now a jinx who brings bad luck to her husbands, a widow. But I'm still living a good life, aren't I? As long as you keep your heart on the sun, there's nothing you can't overcome."
Tao'er was stunned and speechless.
Not long after the old lady collapsed, she and Xing'er and the others were tricked into being sold off. She knew nothing about what happened afterward.
Unexpectedly, after harming several of them, Chen plotted to persecute the eldest daughter.
A hint of hatred flashed in her eyes.
Chen's depravity is so utter, he will surely be punished!
"Let's go." Taking advantage of her moment of distraction, Rong Qingqing took her hand and walked towards Doctor Xu's residence.
After walking a few steps, noticing that Changlin was still following behind, he quickly turned around and said, "Captain Changlin, thank you so much for your help this time. I'll treat you to a meal another day..."
Upon hearing this, Changlin felt a chill run down his spine, fearing that she would say something about drinking and carousing again. He quickly interrupted her, "No need, no need. I have other matters to attend to, so I will return first."
"Okay." Rong Qingqing blinked and waved at him.
Changlin took off running.
He realized that the old lady was very stingy. She had deliberately fooled the madam to save on the ransom. So, the matter of inviting him to drink and have fun was probably not an excuse. She never intended to spend the money.
But despite the old lady's stinginess, her patience with the weak surprised him.
Dr. Xu's home is located in an old alley.
When Rong Qingqing brought Tao'er over, he was drying medicinal herbs in the courtyard.
Seeing him there, Rong Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief.
She was afraid that she had come for nothing, because Doctor Xu was always unpredictable and often went out to collect medicinal herbs.
"Dr. Xu."
Hearing the voice, Doctor Xu turned around. When he saw Rong Qingqing dressed in men's clothing, he didn't recognize her at first. "You are..."
"I am Rong Qingqing, don't you recognize me?" Rong Qingqing said with a smile.
Doctor Xu suddenly realized, "Oh, it's Miss Rong! What brings you here today...?"
Rong Qingqing pulled Tao'er, who was behind her, to the front. "This is my maid. Could you please examine her?"
Doctor Xu put down the medicinal herbs in his hand and laughed heartily, "Of course, no problem. Please have a seat, young lady."
Tao'er suddenly shrank back, shook her head and said, "No need, no need, I don't need to see a doctor."
Rong Qingqing's eyes dimmed. It seemed that Tao'er's experience in the brothel had left a deep shadow on her heart.
