Bei Yutang stood aside without saying a word, letting her vent her anger.
"It's so good that he's dead now. He died well." Xiuhong said as a tear rolled down the corner of her eye.
After she finished venting her anger, Bei Yutang spoke again, "If Uncle Zhang didn't care about your life or death and considered you worthless, he wouldn't have traveled all the way to Linzhou Prefecture to redeem you. Selling you for silver was probably an act of helplessness on his part."
"I don't mean to excuse him, but there's one thing I must say. Before Uncle Zhang died, the person he cared about most was you."
Xiuhong buried her red face in her hands and let out a soft cry.
"Xiuhong, time is running out. I'll ask you one last time, do you want to go back with me? I will take care of you in the future, and you will live with me." Bei Yutang asked.
Xiuhong cried for a long time before she raised her head and looked at her, "I don't want to."
Bei Yutang frowned slightly, "Are you sure you want to continue staying here as a slave?"
Xiuhong shook her head. "I don't want to be a slave, nor do I want to live with you."
"Then what do you want?" Bei Yutang was a little confused.
"Dad asked you to take care of me, but I don't need it. Go away." Xiuhong said sullenly.
"Your father has been kind to me, and I promised him that I would take care of you." Bei Yutang expressed his feelings.
Xiuhong said unhappily, "Are you annoying? I said I don't want you, so I don't want you to take care of me."
Bei Yutang compromised and said, "How about this, what's your wish? As long as it's within my ability, I'll help you fulfill it."
Xiuhong looked up at her and snorted softly, "Okay. Since you want to repay me so much, I will help you. I want to be the second young master's mistress, can you do it?"
After saying that, Xiuhong looked at her provocatively.
"Is this your wish?"
"Yes. This is my wish. As long as you can help me do it, the favor you owe my father will be settled." Xiuhong sneered: "Why, you can't do it?"
"Okay." Bei Yutang agreed, "I will make you the second young lady of Mr. Zhang's mansion."
When Xiuhong heard her agree, her eyes widened, "Can you really do it?"
"Yes. If you want, I'll do it for you."
Xiuhong was now excited, and her whole face was filled with excitement, sweeping away the previous gloom. "You won't lie to me, will you?"
"What good will it be for me to lie to you?" Bei Yutang asked back.
"That's true." Xiuhong said happily.
"It's getting late, I can't stay here long. You should take good care of your injuries first, and I will come to see you again in a few days. During this time, you just stay here peacefully, don't cause trouble, and don't appear in front of the Second Young Master. I will take care of the rest." Bei Yutang whispered.
The green grass outside began to urge.
"I understand. You are so nagging." Xiuhong replied impatiently.
Bei Yutang didn't know if she would listen or not, so she couldn't help but remind her again, "If you want to successfully become the Second Young Madam, you must listen to me. Otherwise, even if I have supernatural powers, I can't help you."
"Okay, okay, I get it." Xiuhong waved her hand impatiently.
Seeing this, Bei Yutang said nothing more and turned away.
Seeing her come out, Lu Cao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. "Hurry up and leave this place with me. The housekeeper will be here soon. If she finds out you're here, she'll deduct my wages."
