Chapter 51 Mu Huaian doesn't want to see her anymore
The yard was quiet, and overlapping figures were reflected on the window by candlelight, but the secret guards hidden in the dark could not see them.
It was not until late at night that the door opened. Yu Qinghuan put on the clothes she came in, returned to the backyard, and climbed into the house through the window.
Sang Ru in the room had been waiting anxiously, fearing that something might go wrong. When she saw Yu Qinghuan coming back, she immediately closed the window.
Yu Qinghuan took off her clothes and took the hot towel handed to her by Sang Ru to wipe her body. "Xie Zhili didn't come, right?"
Sang Ru: "Second Master came just now. I told him you were asleep, so he left."
Looking at the marks on Yu Qinghuan's body, she felt a little complicated. She hoped that it would succeed, but she also didn't want the lady to really be with the prince...
"Ma'am, how is tonight?"
Yu Qinghuan frowned when she thought about what happened tonight, and she was not very happy at all.
The prince is just a young boy, and she feels a headache when thinking about the future.
"It's done."
Sang Ru felt inexplicably uncomfortable, but she didn't show it on her face. "It's good as long as it works."
At least from now on, I'll have someone to rely on.
Sang Ru was gathering her tattered clothes, preparing to find a brazier to burn them, when she suddenly spotted a box on the table. It must have been the one Yu Qinghuan had just brought back. She immediately asked, "Madam, should we put this box away?"
Yu Qinghuan only then remembered that when Xiao Jinghe was leaving, he stuffed this box into her hands and told her that if she followed him in the future, she could tell him directly if she wanted anything without going through anyone else.
Thinking of this, she walked to the table and motioned Sang Ru to open the box.
The moment the box was opened, the whole room was almost illuminated. It was another night pearl.
Sang Ru's eyes widened, "Madam, this night pearl is so bright..."
Compared with this night pearl, the one that the second master sent me a few days ago and placed on the bedside shelf is really not as good as it looks.
Yu Qinghuan fell silent and began to think about whether this night pearl could be sold and how much money it could get if sold.
Sang Ru had already carefully taken the night-shining pearl out of the box and placed it before Yu Qinghuan. "Madam, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is truly generous. This pearl, in my opinion, is worth at least a thousand gold pieces!"
Yu Qinghuan's gaze fell on the box. After the night pearl was taken out, there was actually something underneath.
She immediately reached out and took out the contents of the box. When she unfolded it, she saw that there were thirty silver notes, each with a face value of one thousand taels!
Yu Qinghuan was stunned, and Sang Ru was also stunned.
The prince is the prince, rich and powerful. This time he gave away a valuable night pearl and 30,000 taels of silver.
Sang Ru swallowed and said, "Madam, we are not poor anymore."
Yu Qinghuan: "Well, not poor anymore."
She stuffed the banknotes back into the box and handed it to Sang Ru, asking her to keep it safe and not let anyone find it.
If one day, the prince is no longer reliable and the marquis's residence is no longer suitable for him, these will be the capital for them, the master and the servant, to make a living.
Sang Ru hugged the box tightly, so happy that she almost cried.
Since the death of the Marquis, Wang has treated the lady harshly in every way. When autumn came, the lady didn't even have a new piece of clothing, and couldn't even drink a sip of hot tea. She had really had enough of this hard life!
Yu Qinghuan's mood at this moment was complicated. When she got married, the Yu family did not give her any dowry. As the wife of Ningyuan Marquis, everything in the Marquis's mansion was controlled by Wang. After Xie Zhiwen's death, she did not even have a few hundred taels in her hands.
If I had these thirty thousand taels in my previous life, I wouldn't have been forced to return to that cannibalistic family of my mother's, and ended up being plotted against and ending up like that.
That night, Yu Qinghuan lay in bed, thinking about everything that had happened since her rebirth. Each and every one of them was completely separated from her previous life.
In this life, she will definitely live a good life, better than anyone else, and more freely than anyone else.
...
Since that night, the prince came several times in succession, as if he was addicted, and each time he brought some inconspicuous gold and silver jewelry to Yu Qinghuan.
Yu Qinghuan didn't dare to use these things, for fear that Xie Zhili would notice something unusual.
In fact, Xie Zhili had no time to pay attention to these things. He was busy arranging various things for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Several times, he had to stay in the capital because it was too late to return to the farm.
The longer he couldn't see him, the more he missed him, and he became somewhat dissatisfied with the prince.
December came in a flash, and the weather was getting colder, but Yu Qinghuan's days at the farm were getting happier and happier. He slept until noon every day, sometimes read books, sometimes fiddled with flowers and plants, and even learned to make two cakes and side dishes from Chef Gao.
Over the past month, Wang often sent people to urge her and even invited a doctor to take her pulse, and the result was that she was in good health.
Afterwards, Wang ordered the doctor to take Xie Zhili's pulse, but he still couldn't catch him.
Anyway, she doesn't need to worry about it, she has always cooperated.
The Yu family came twice more, but were turned away each time. Once, they threw a tantrum outside the farm and started shouting and cursing, and were finally beaten away by Li Po and her men.
Without Xie Zhili's obstruction, Yu Qinghuan could enter and leave the manor freely again.
Since that day, she never heard the sound of the piano coming from next door again. She wanted to find Mu Huaian and explain what happened that day, but was stopped outside by the servant at the back door.
The door was blocked by a servant, but she knew that Mu Huaian didn't want to see her anymore.
Whenever she thought about these days, she always felt an indescribable sense of loss in her heart.
Seeing Yu Qinghuan standing in the courtyard, looking at the tree trunk with only dead branches left, Sang Ru took a cloak from the house and put it on her, "Madam, it's windy outside, you should come inside.
Yu Qinghuan shook her head, "It's really stuffy in this room."
Sang Ru followed her gaze and saw the same dead tree, but it was actually the courtyard wall. She shook her head and sighed in her heart.
"Second Master, you will stay in the capital tonight. I asked Chef Gao to prepare several of your favorite dishes and also had the wine warmed."
Yu Qinghuan finally smiled, "What kind of wine?"
"Madam, please wait inside. I will send someone to get it."
Only then did Yu Qinghuan enter the house.
That night, Yu Qinghuan, who had drunk a lot of alcohol, felt dizzy and lay on the soft couch in the room, reading a storybook by candlelight. As she read, she felt sleepy and fell into a deep sleep.
In her dream, she saw Xie Zhiwen, whom she hadn't dreamed of for a long time. After a while, she dreamed of Xie Zhili and Xiao Jinghe. Finally, she saw a snowy figure walking farther and farther away. Just when she wanted to catch up, she was awakened by Sang Ru.
She forced herself to stand up, and seeing that it was still dark outside, she asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
Sang Ru lowered her voice and said, "Madam, Xiaowu from the neighboring village has climbed over the wall and is now outside..."
Yu Qinghuan looked puzzled. Xiao Wu was the servant following Mu Huaian. Why was he climbing over the wall?
Sang Ru: "They say the young master has had a high fever since the night before and can't take any medicine. I'd like you to go and take a look."
