She became increasingly puzzled, picked up the letter, and opened it to take a look.
The more I looked, the heavier my heart became.
It turns out that something really did happen in the provincial capital, and the old man was taking his eldest son's family and his daughter's family to the port city to avoid trouble.
This farewell may be the last time we meet in this lifetime, so what I'm sending this time is the dowry I prepared in advance for her...
That jade pendant was a dowry specially prepared for her by her deceased grandmother. It was an heirloom and very precious. She was told to wear it close to her body and not lose it, so that it could be passed down to her children in the future.
She stared blankly at the clothes, money, and jewelry scattered on the ground, her nose tingling with tears.
She had lived for more than ten years without ever experiencing fatherly or motherly love, but her elders treated her very well. Her grandmother, who was in poor health and had been recuperating in a courtyard in the suburbs, was so angry when she learned about her and her mother's affair that she fell seriously ill and passed away. Before she died, she managed to send her servants to deliver a sum of money to her maternal grandparents, begging them to treat her well.
I never expected that they would prepare such a precious gift for her.
And now, she hasn't even seen the old man, hasn't had a chance to properly fulfill her filial duties, and he's about to leave...
However, judging from the contents of the letter, the old man had no idea that his scumbag biological father had sent her a letter asking her to go to the provincial capital.
The old man told her to wait until she came of age before going to Qin Xuanyi to fulfill the marriage agreement. He said he would discuss the marriage with the Qin family before he left, and that she should stay in the countryside and not go to the city unless necessary, as things were very chaotic there.
She sighed, tidied up her things, and planned to put them in the closet.
In her distraction, she accidentally cut her hand on the lock while unlocking it, and blood immediately flowed out.
The stinging sensation brought her back to her senses, and she hurriedly went to the table to grab a handkerchief.
She accidentally bumped into the jade pendant on the table and vaguely saw a flash of light. She felt dizzy and her vision blurred. When she opened her eyes again, she saw a vast expanse of lush green grass. The sky above was clear and blue, and a gentle breeze made her feel exceptionally comfortable.
She remembered that the blood on her hand had just dripped onto the jade pendant, then a flash of light appeared, and then she was here.
She roughly guessed that this place was probably related to that jade pendant.
The old man sent her all sorts of books. She had read many strange stories of fairies and monsters in the storybooks, so she was not unable to accept such magical things.
She was afraid that if she stayed inside too long, her grandparents would worry when they came home from work and couldn't find her, so she quickly tried shouting "Get out!" towards the sky.
A blur flashed before my eyes, and when I opened them again, I found myself in a familiar room.
The things on the ground are still the same as before.
She felt a little excited when she thought of the magical bags of immortals in those storybooks. She wondered if her jade pendant counted as such a treasure.
Thinking of her, I decided to give it a try.
The jade pendant on the table was gone, replaced by a striking red mole on her wrist.
She then took a box with that hand and silently said, "Put it in!"
She was overjoyed to see the box in her hand disappear!
"Go in!"
After saying that, she returned to the jade pendant.
The box was now lying quietly on the grass.
"Haha, it's done!"
"go out!"
Next, she put all those things inside.
There are a few petty thieves in the village who lock up their valuables. Now that they have the jade pendant, of course they'll put it inside the jade pendant!
Where is there a safer place on my body?
She opened the cabinet again and put all the money and notes she had saved over the years, as well as small items such as silver bracelets and gold earrings given to her by her grandmother, into the jade pendant.
