"This... Fifth Madam, you should go back first."
Yingchun hesitated for a moment. She was only giving her this advice out of consideration for their previous relationship.
"Her Majesty is in a bad mood right now, so please don't upset her."
"You'll have nothing to do when you go back, but don't forget, your daughter is still at the Crown Prince's residence."
"Now that there's no news of His Highness the Crown Prince, what about your daughter..."
Yingchun didn't explain it very clearly, but Fifth Madam's heart skipped a beat.
She recalled the rumors circulating outside that Mengyao had been unable to forget Zhen Wang ever since his return, and had even tried to intercept him multiple times.
Does she really want to have some kind of connection with Prince Zhen? Does she want to marry him?
The Fifth Madam suddenly wanted to laugh; the Meng family didn't have that kind of nerve. Meng Yao was the Crown Princess; how could she possibly remarry Prince Zhen?
Even the emperor wouldn't be happy about it; he couldn't bear to lose face like that.
What does she want to do?
Fifth Madam still didn't see Mengyao before she left. After leaving, the more she thought about it, the more uneasy she felt.
Few people knew that my daughter was pregnant.
The official story is that the Crown Princess is pregnant. But if the Crown Princess wants to marry Prince Zhen, how could she possibly have a child with him?
not good!
Her daughter is in danger.
But at this point, who else can save her daughter?
The Emperor and Empress were unaware of the situation; as a mere concubine, she had no right to meet those important figures.
Who else can we ask for help?
The Fifth Madam walked along, looking lost and disoriented, her mind in turmoil.
"Ah..." She wasn't paying attention and was bumped into.
The Fifth Madam fell to the ground, and the other party hurriedly came over to help her up: "Are you alright?"
"No, I'm fine!"
The Fifth Madam was preoccupied and didn't want to argue with anyone. She had indeed been lost in thought and hadn't noticed anyone earlier.
She was also at fault.
"Do you need me to find you a doctor to take a look?" The other person was very polite and had an excellent attitude.
"No, it's okay. I'm fine."
The fifth wife looked worried, but seeing that she was alright, the man instructed her:
"Okay, you should be more careful when you walk in the future."
"Miss, it's getting late, we need to hurry. By the way, miss, how many sets are being released in the store today?"
"Let's keep it the same as before."
"Oh, that's very rare, Miss. You don't know, so many people have asked me about it, and some have even offered me money to help them rob it!"
"You little girl, how much silver did you take?"
The store was so popular that many people couldn't get their hands on the items, so it was normal for some people to have ulterior motives and try to take advantage of the young girl. Du Linlang just turned a blind eye to it.
...
As the two walked further and further away, the Fifth Madam finally came to her senses. Who was that? Could it be...?
"Miss, wait a moment."
Thinking of that possibility, she hurriedly jogged after him.
Hearing the sound, Du Linlang turned around in surprise.
The little girl pouted unhappily: "You really are something. Didn't you just say everything was fine? You're not going to regret it now, are you? Let me tell you, don't even think about trying to scam our young lady."
Xiao Xi stepped forward and stood in front of Du Linlang, speaking angrily.
"Alright, Xiao Xi."
Du Linlang also looked at the woman who had just said she was fine, and she was also very curious about what this woman wanted to do.
"I...I didn't."
The Fifth Madam blushed. She was being talked about by the little maid. She was so old, how could she possibly extort a young girl?
"I just heard that you are the manager of Yongchunfang, and I just wanted to ask you for a favor."
The Fifth Madam spoke awkwardly, and Du Linlang frowned, already guessing what she wanted to do, but...
They don't have many items in their shop, so it wouldn't be a problem for her to leave one set for them.
"Go ahead and tell me."
"I...I would like to see Miss Zhou."
Du Linlang was taken aback. She had thought this woman wanted to use her connections to buy products, but it turned out the woman just wanted to...
Want to meet Zhou Jie?
This is a bit difficult, though.
"Seeing her is fine, but not today."
Du Linlang looked troubled, and the Fifth Madam hurriedly asked, "When can it be done?"
"I don't know either. She went out and may not be back today."
The Fifth Madam was heartbroken. Her daughter was still in great danger and could die at any moment. She was extremely worried.
"Could you tell me where she went?"
"I didn't mean anything by it. I have something urgent to discuss with her, it's very urgent."
The Fifth Madam was afraid that her daughter might be in danger, as Mengyao was not someone to be trifled with.
"Well, she went to Le'an Town. You should be able to find her by asking at the government office."
Seeing that she was really anxious, Du Linlang finally gave her the address.
"Xiao Xi, you go with her." Du Linlang was still a little worried, so she asked the maid to go with her.
Although the girl was unwilling, she had no choice but to go.
This woman...
It's clearly her own fault for not paying attention while walking, so why is she blaming their young lady?
...
Because Le'an County is relatively close to Beijing, the standard of living here is much better than that in Wuling Town.
However, the harvest has been bad in recent years, and most people are going hungry.
Han Luoxue redeemed a Disguise Pill from her spatial storage. Now that she has many points and earns money every day, she doesn't feel bad about using them.
One was given to Han Yuchen, so it wasn't convenient for him to appear here.
When I redeemed the medicine, the mall even had antidote pills available.
Priced at 1,000 points, it wasn't cheap, but it could buy ten of them, so Han Luoxue naturally bought them all.
The store is offering more and more items these days; yesterday they even released Bigu Pills.
Han Luoxue doesn't need it for the time being, but it's better to have it on hand just in case she needs it someday.
Upon arriving at their destination, the three of them strolled around the streets, taking in the sights of the place.
As for the county government office, there's no rush for now; Han Luoxue plans to go there later.
When they arrived, there were still quite a few people on the street.
"Do you think what they said above is true?"
"How could it be fake? They wouldn't lie to us."
"I feel the same way. King Zhen is truly the chosen one. The seedlings he gave us are growing so fast. This is the first time I've ever seen seedlings like this."
"Haven't you heard? People from not far from here have already started planting them. Just a few days ago, some people from there came to sell sweet potatoes."
Are those sweet potatoes the same as ours?
Because a large quantity needed to be planted, Han Luoxue only provided the emperor with sweet potato and potato seedlings.
This stuff has a high yield and can fill your stomach, so it's the fastest way to see results.
"Same here, all thanks to His Highness Prince Zhen."
Hearing everyone's support for Han Yuchen, Han Luoxue was in a good mood. She even poked Han Yuchen's arm and smiled:
"Brother Chen, look, they all support you."
"Xue'er, isn't this all thanks to you?"
Han Yuchen smiled indulgently and sighed:
"You're the one everyone should be thanking."
Even though it's raining now, how would everyone have survived the past six months without Han Luoxue's rice seedlings?
