The fifth steward understood immediately upon hearing this.
"Your concerns are valid. I won't see you off then. Just come find me at the side entrance of the auction house if you need anything!"
"Okay, thank you, Fifth Uncle!"
Qin Luo bowed politely and left. The fifth steward watched them walk away before reporting to Elder Yuan.
When the three arrived at the Liang family's courtyard, it was the same as before.
Torches were lit in the courtyard, illuminating the way home clearly.
As soon as Liang Yu pushed open the courtyard gate, Liang Jin, dragging his weak body, came out to greet him.
Qin Luo looked at her with some worry, not because of Wen Yushu's health, but because she was worried that she would use Liang Jin's body to fall in love with Liang Yu!
In its most innocent and ignorant moments, it encountered two great heroes who saved it, plus the days and nights it spent with Liang Jin after his death!
Liang Yu treated it like a little sister and took very good care of it, willing to give up everything for its recovery...
Wen Yushu also did small but heartwarming things for him every day, so it was hard not to develop some feelings for him.
One is simple-minded and naive, the other is kind and passionate. If they were to be possessed by someone else, it would be a wonderful story!
But since they were twin sisters, they could only become a pair of unhappy spouses.
While she was still feeling troubled and lost in thought, a cup of hot tea was already handed to her.
"Brother Qin, please try it. How is the tea I brewed today different from the tea before?"
Qin Luo picked up the teacup and took a sip.
"The taste is milder, and I felt much warmer after drinking it!"
"Yes, make water by boiling ginseng and astragalus, and then make tea with rose and jasmine!"
Qin Luo had already studied pharmacology with Doctor You, so she knew immediately that the woman knew she was a woman.
However, they were unaware that they were mutants and did not need to regulate their blood and qi.
She smiled at Wen Yushu.
"Thank you, Sister Liang Jin, I'll drink more!"
After everyone had a sip of tea, Liang Yu went to the kitchen to cook, while Wen Yushu followed to help.
Qin Luo was very puzzled
"Little one, aren't trees all afraid of fire? How come it's always so willing to help?"
Wu Hua put down her teacup before replying, "Because Liang Jin is like that, she can light torches for her brother and help with cooking, so it can only try its best to learn and overcome its fear!"
Qin Luo then realized that he had been overthinking things; Wen Yushu had probably only become a demon in a few short years.
Judging by her mental abilities, I reckon the martial arts flower won't mature much by then!
Therefore, the only option is to follow Liang Jin's previous approach and replicate it one-to-one.
I guess I've been reading too many romance novels; my mind has become impure!
After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill and were chatting, Qin Luo placed the silver notes and silver that Tengteng had taken from Han Ling and Liang Ju on the table.
"Brother Liang, this is compensation from your cousin!"
Liang Yu stared at the things on the table, her face full of questions. Wen Yushu also looked at her with great curiosity.
It must be said that she portrayed the character Liang Jin perfectly.
Before Liang Yu could ask, Qin Luo recounted everything that had happened that day.
They also talked about Lao Wen's situation, focusing on how he had offended the young master of the Han family and was now uncertain about his survival.
As for how he offended Han Ling, it was because he couldn't pay back his gambling debts and stole money from Han Ling, which led to his arrest.
Liang Yu remained silent for a long time after hearing this, only lowering his head and clenching his fists.
It was obvious at a glance that he was filled with anger, but didn't know how to vent it.
This is when the thoughtful little Wu Hua comes into play, first resting her little head on Liang Yu's shoulder.
She then gently stroked his chest with her chubby little hands.
"Brother, don't be angry. It's not worth it for that scoundrel!"
As she spoke, she pried his hands apart again and gently breathed on them for him.
"Does it hurt? Let me blow on it for you~"
After being manipulated by this whole operation, Liang Yu could no longer hold back his grievances.
He hugged Wu Hua tightly and started crying.
"Waaaaah! Why would he treat his own family like this?! My parents treated him so well when they were alive. They were worried he'd be mistreated as a servant in the Han household, so I would buy things for the Han family's head steward every month! Why is he treating me like this? Waaaaah~"
Qin Luo could understand his feelings perfectly; all his enthusiasm had been wasted, especially on a family member he cared about.
She handed Wen Yushu a handkerchief, gesturing for it to go and comfort him.
Wen Yushu took it and immediately channeled her inner movie queen.
"Brother, don't be sad. Jin'er will always be with you. Liang Ju has paid the price for his actions. From now on, let's just pretend we don't have this cousin!"
After saying that, she wiped away Liang Yu's tears, and Liang Yu calmed down.
She said apologetically to Qin Luo and Wu Hua, "I'm sorry, you must have found this amusing!"
Wu Hua snuggled into his arms.
"Brother, I won't laugh at you!"
Liang Yu lifted it onto his lap and sat it comfortably, sincerely thanking it.
Qin Luo glanced at the moon, estimating it was almost the end of Hai Shi (11 PM).
She winked at Wu Hua, and after it covered its mouth and nose...
She took out her ever-reliable handkerchief and gently waved it at Liang Yu.
Liang Yu suddenly lost consciousness. Qin Luo caught him before he fell to the ground, and Wu Hua jumped down from his arms.
Although Wen Yushu didn't understand what they were going to do, he didn't ask. He simply led the two women to put Liang Yu in the room.
She even took the time to take off his shoes and cover him with a blanket, and placed a glass of water by the bed before closing the door and leaving.
As soon as they came out, Qin Luo asked it if it wanted to come with him to retrieve its true form.
Wen Yushu nodded rapidly.
"I want to go! I want to go!"
Since Qin Luo had already told Elder Yuan during the day that there was no need for guards,
Old Yuan then withdrew all the guards who were originally protecting them!
So Qin Luo confidently used the vines to wrap around the jade tree and leap between the houses.
Wu Hua conjured small wings and flew after him, soon arriving near Elder Yuan's private residence.
The three landed on the ground and walked towards the gate of the mansion.
Looking at the magnificent Yuan family mansion before them, Qin Luo and the other two couldn't help but admire its luxuriousness.
Not only does it occupy a vast area, but its interior buildings are also arranged in a well-organized and interesting manner from the outside.
The mansion's main gate was clearly made of the finest wood.
The lintel was carved with auspicious patterns of clouds and mist, and the guards in front of the gate were all tall and upright, standing ramrod straight.
The three stepped forward, and Qin Luo handed the small gold token in her hand to the guards for verification. After confirming its authenticity, the guards respectfully bowed to her.
"The owner is well. As Mr. Yuan instructed, please come with me, the three of you!"
None of the three were very worldly-wise, and this was their first time entering such a luxurious mansion, so they were all quite curious.
Following behind the guards, I kept looking around; the mansion was brightly lit.
All sorts of lanterns were hung high, illuminating the entire mansion as if it were daytime.
The three of them stepped over the threshold, and there was a path paved with bluestone.
The area is lined with evergreen and precious flowers and trees, including pines, magnolias, and osmanthus, which immediately reveal the owner's refined taste.
The guards led them directly through the main hall and straight to the storeroom.
Qin Luo glanced at the furniture and decorations in the hall; every piece was exquisite and opulent.
The backyard is a hidden gem, with pavilions, terraces, and long corridors by the water.
She couldn't even imagine how much the mansion had cost; Wu Hua and Wen Yushu were also dazzled by the sight.
To avoid appearing naive or unsophisticated, he pretended to be completely unconcerned.
