"No need for that. I've occupied the identity of your Marquis's daughter for many years. Now that I know I'm not from the Xu family, I have no face to stay here."
"I am not even qualified to marry as the daughter of a marquis. Thank you so much, Lord Marquis and Madam, for raising me all these years."
Xu's mother's face turned livid, and she pointed at Xu Jinyi: "Okay, you are proud."
"Since you've said that, then get out of our mansion. I want to see how you survive out there."
"How will you beg to come back then?"
Xu Zhiwei looked at Xu Jinyi disapprovingly: "Sister, stop saying those angry words and apologize to mom quickly, then you can stay."
Although things did not develop as expected, Xu Jinyi actually agreed to leave.
This made Xu Zhiwei feel a little gloating and enjoying the show.
She also wanted to see how her sister would live after leaving the Marquis' Mansion, and wanted to see her begging to come back in a desperate state.
"There's no need to keep her. After all, she's not a member of the Xu family and we can't keep her well. Since she wants to leave, let's do as she wishes and fulfill her wish in the end." Xu's mother said loudly.
Father Xu pursed his lips, feeling somewhat reluctant: "If you don't want to leave——"
"Your Majesty, there is no need to stay. I am leaving of my own accord and will not cause any more trouble to your family."
"But before I leave, I would like to ask Madam, how did I become your child, and where are my parents?"
Xu's mother's eyes flashed. "I found you in a dilapidated temple outside Beijing. At that time, you were only wrapped in an ordinary cloth. There was no token of love, and no one was around."
"Seeing you crying with your face red, and it was freezing cold, I brought you back home."
Xu Jinyi lowered his eyes, nodded, and prepared to leave.
"If you don't want to leave—"
"Thank you, Madam Marquis, for your kindness in raising me over the years. I will leave now."
Being insulted again, Madam Xu looked a little embarrassed: "Since you are so arrogant, I guess you won't be interested in the things in our mansion. Then just leave with nothing."
"Okay, since you've decided to leave, go back to your room and pack your things."
"You can take away the clothes, jewelry, and the money I gave you."
Then he took out two silver notes worth five hundred taels and handed them over with a kind look.
Father Xu felt that Xu Jinyi's arrogant personality needed to be tempered.
When she has suffered all kinds of grievances outside, she will know how good the Marquis' Mansion is.
Father Xu did not believe that Xu Jinyi was really willing to give up her identity as the legitimate daughter of the Marquis's Mansion, and thought that she would not be able to survive outside for more than two days and would come back to admit her mistakes.
So I didn't persuade her to stay.
"Sister, please take the money Daddy gave you, and don't forget the jewelry in your room. There are many places where you need money when you go out. It's not too late if you admit your mistake now." Xu Zhiwei said obediently while standing aside.
Mother Xu thought of the several sets of jewelry at Xu Jinyi's place, opened her mouth, but didn't say anything in the end.
Xu Jinyi raised his hand to refuse: "I will not take anything that does not belong to me in the Marquis' Mansion. You can rest assured about this."
"All those jewels are in the jewelry box in the room. You can go and count them."
"Except for the clothes I'm wearing, I didn't take anything from your mansion."
As soon as Xu Jinyi said this, Lord Xu and Madam Xu felt a little embarrassed.
Xu Zhiwei glanced at Xu Jinyi with contempt and sneered disapprovingly.
"Sister, Daddy and Mommy didn't mean that. Don't be so sensitive. It's okay to take those things with you. If you leave, you'll have to spend money on many things. How can you survive without money?"
“No need.”
Watching the straight figure leave, Father Xu shook his head and sighed.
"She's so stubborn. If she doesn't suffer a little, she won't know how good a life the Marquis' Mansion has given her."
"well……"
Madam Xu: "It's better for her to leave. She's not my biological daughter anyway. This way everyone will know that our mansion only has one legitimate daughter, but no eldest daughter."
"My sister is just too arrogant and conceited. I hope she can behave well when she comes back and not make you, Daddy and Mommy, angry again."
Madam Xu: "Weiwei, from now on you will be the only legitimate daughter of our mansion. Don't call me sister anymore."
"Such an ungrateful person is not worthy of being your sister. When she comes back, she won't have a place in this position anymore."
Xu Zhiwei looked at Xu Jinyi disappearing on the street, and somehow, he suddenly felt uneasy.
"Mom, how long do you think Xu Jinyi will be back this time?"
Madam Xu snorted coldly, "She has no money on her, and it's freezing cold and snowing outside. I'm afraid she'll be back soon."
Xu Zhiwei shook her head: "With her proud personality, as long as she doesn't freeze to death, she would rather stay on the street than come back tonight."
"Then let her suffer a little, and she will know how good life is in the Marquis' Mansion."
"Mother, what if she doesn't come back? What will happen to my marriage with the prince?"
"No, she has no money, unless she wants to die outside."
Xu Jinyi, who was leaving, leaned weakly against the wall, panting, and the breath he exhaled turned into white mist.
The pale face looked pitiful and particularly sympathetic.
The snow on the ground was very thick, and Xu Jinyi, with a dizzy head, felt as if his feet weighed a thousand pounds.
Her delicate body was suddenly hit by a carriage, and she fell awkwardly in the snow.
"You're courting death! Do you know whose carriage this is? Do you deserve the consequences of bumping into an important person?"
"No disrespect."
A deep and pleasant voice sounded from the carriage, and the driver who had just been cursing immediately fell silent and stood aside.
Xu Jinyi looked up and saw a slender figure appear in front of him. Xu Jinyi was dizzy and could not see his face clearly, but could only feel the warm breath on him.
"Girl, are you okay?"
The soft outline in front of him made Xu Jinyi lose focus for a moment.
Perhaps because he noticed that Xu Jinyi's expression was not right, Jun Moxie extended his hand to Xu Jinyi.
Xu Jinyi raised her cold little hand with all her strength and placed it in Jun Moxie's broad and warm big hand.
Jun Moxie helped her up, but Xu Jinyi still couldn't hold on and fainted.
The driver exclaimed, "Ah... girl? What should the Third Prince do? Although the carriage hit her just now, it really didn't hit her hard."
"She fell down by herself. It's none of my business. This guy looks so good. Could he be a scammer?"
Xu Jinyi was unconscious for only a moment and woke up immediately.
"I'm fine, thank you, sir." Xu Jinyi steadied himself and remained standing.
Seeing her stubborn look, Jun Moxie's eyes softened: "It's freezing cold, do you have somewhere to go, young lady? I can give you a ride."
Hearing this, Xu Jinyi's eyes turned red, and her expression made people feel pity for her.
Shaking his head, Xu Jinyi said nothing.
"But is there a difficulty?"
Xu Jinyi bit her lip and said, "Sir, can you lend me fifty taels? I can write you an IOU and pay you back in three months."
