Chapter 236 Revenge
At the farm, the two maids guarding the door were dozing lazily in the chairs.
This is a good job. You don't have to work every day and can just sit there and relax and get your monthly salary. It's much better than working in the Shangshu Mansion and being busy every day.
There is just one downside, you need to cook for yourself.
At the beginning, there were people from the Shangshu Mansion who came to deliver daily food, but later no one came. They simply raised the monthly salary and asked people to buy and cook it themselves, and no one bothered to deliver it here.
When the nanny heard the noise and saw Qiao Yihuan coming out of the room, she withdrew her gaze and did not even bother to stand up and greet him.
What kind of master is this unfavored young lady who is left here by her master to fend for herself?
Qiao Yihuan had not been eating or sleeping well these past few days. Every day he expected Xiaoying to bring back some good news when she went out every two days, but no good news ever came back.
She didn't expect Zhou Yu to be able to accomplish this successfully, but that was also what she expected in her heart.
If it can be done, there is no need to take risks.
If that doesn't work, she still has a way to live against death.
She believed half of what Yanran said, but she was still a little worried in her heart about letting herself die to win the attention and love of His Highness.
What if I really died like that?
She only has one life, and she doesn't want to take any risks unless it is absolutely necessary.
When Xiaoying came back, she pulled Qiao Yihuan into the house, as if something important happened.
But just after taking a few steps, he heard someone knocking on the door again, and the nanny at the door got up to open it.
"Who is it?"
When the door was opened, a young man dressed as a servant appeared. He was holding a large box in his hands, which was half as long and wide as his arm.
"Who are you?"
The young man smiled and said politely, "This is what my master asked me to send to Miss Qiao."
Mammy looked back at Xiaoying who was walking over and asked curiously, "Who is your master?"
The young man smiled and explained, "Miss Xiaoying knows this. My young marquis asked me to send this to you not long after you left. He said it was the good stuff that Miss Xiaoying wanted, as well as some fine clothes. Please take it quickly."
Xiaoying was stunned for a moment, looking at the big box in surprise and speechless.
After a moment, she smiled again, knowing that the young marquis was so good to the young lady and would not really ignore her.
People should be grateful and repay kindness. Even if they have a quarrel, it cannot change the fact that the lady saved him.
The young man said that the good thing he wanted was probably money. The box was not small and he estimated that there must be a lot of silver in it, enough for him and the young lady to live for a long time.
Xiaoying took the box, which was quite heavy, and the smile on her face deepened.
"Thank you for coming in. Can you please have a cup of tea?"
The young man waved his hands repeatedly, "No, no, I still have to reply to my young master. The young master is worried and concerned, I have to go back as soon as possible to reassure him."
Xiaoying nodded, "Then I won't keep you here, goodbye."
Seeing the young man turn and leave, Xiaoying couldn't wait to go into the house to see how much money was inside.
But he was stopped by one of the maids.
"What's in here? Open it and let me see."
Xiaoying turned away and refused to give it to me. "Why should I show it to you? This is a gift from the young marquis to my young lady. If you dare to snatch it, don't blame me for going to the young marquis when I go out and letting him teach you a lesson."
Another maid pulled her over and said, "Forget it, let her take it in."
The nanny frowned slightly and said nothing more. The fact that the young marquis sent someone to deliver something meant that he was familiar with the eldest lady and was taking extra care of her.
If Xiaoying really complained, they would be in big trouble.
They had also been in the capital for many years and were well aware of the young marquis's temper.
Xiaoying felt the box was a bit heavy in one hand, so she quickly walked into the house, put it down, turned around, closed the door and locked it.
Qiao Yihuan blinked her clear eyes, "Xiaoying, what is this?"
Xiaoying smiled and said, "This was sent by the young marquis."
"Qi Yun?" Qiao Yihuan seemed surprised, but felt relieved after a moment.
After all, he still cares about himself and is concerned about himself.
After all, the friendship of many years is more reliable than that of the Tenth Princess.
"Miss, the young marquis is on good terms with you, so what does a quarrel mean? Look, isn't it that he knows that you are suffering here and has sent you something? Don't worry, with the young marquis here, you won't stay here forever!"
Qiao Yihuan was pleased with these words, and the corners of her lips slightly raised in a smile.
But she has lost a lot of weight these days, and this smile is not as beautiful as before, but instead has a bit more bitterness.
Xiaoying couldn't wait to open the box, but the moment she opened the box she let out a startled scream, subconsciously took a step back and almost fell to the ground.
Qiao Yihuan's face suddenly changed. He didn't understand what Xiaoying saw that caused her to react like that.
"What's wrong? What's in there?"
He leaned forward to take a look out of curiosity, and a slippery red-headed snake suddenly jumped out and bit Qiao Yihuan's neck.
"ah!!!!!"
"Miss!!!!"
The nanny at the door was also startled when she heard the screams from inside. She ran over here with a shudder in her heart, but the door was locked from the inside, and the two of them couldn't push it open to see what was going on.
The poisonous snake that saw the light of day again was not satisfied with staying in the box. It crawled out slipperily and fell off the table. The scene was terrifying for a moment.
Xiaoying was so scared that she got goose bumps all over her body and her whole body was shaking, but she still gritted her teeth and grabbed the snake that was biting her neck and threw it away.
Without thinking too much, she pulled Qiao Yihuan and ran outside.
But because she was too scared and her legs became weak, Xiaoying staggered a short distance to the door and took a long time to reach it and open the bolt.
The two maids were frightened by the sight of the two men with pale faces and the eldest daughter covering her neck with a black mouth.
Out of the corner of his eye he saw a colorful snake on the floor of the house and he screamed and ran away.
But the situation was too urgent, and the two of them stumbled towards the gate, not daring to stop as they ran towards the Shangshu Mansion.
In the distance, under an ancient tree that blocked out the sun, Lu Jinye sat on his horse, slightly tilting his head and watching the movements at the gate of the manor.
Seeing someone running out, the corner of his mouth curled up into an evil arc.
Yeah, it's opened.
Doesn’t Jiang Qiyun have something on him?
If he doesn't live a good life, he won't be able to live a good life either.
He was not interested in seeing whether the master and servant were dead or not. Even if they were not dead, they would be so scared that they would not dare to close their eyes for days and nights for fear that something would crawl onto the bed.
He gripped the reins, squeezed the horse's belly, and rode away, leaving behind only a chilly silhouette.
