Seeing this, the steward rushed forward and pulled him down, "Get off now! Who allowed you to die? You paid for it!"
He Yu cried bitterly, "I can bite my tongue to death, I can bang my head against the wall, I can starve to death without eating or drinking. As long as I want to die, you can't stop me!"
This made the manager very angry.
There are many ways to torture people, but they are useless against someone who is determined to die.
The steward hurriedly ordered the big man, "Go and call the guests!"
Jiang Mengli and Lingqiao had already reached the gate when the big man hurried downstairs and ran over to stop them. "Sir, please wait. Our manager will let you go upstairs and we can discuss it further."
She had expected the big man to do this.
After all, if He Yu died, they would earn nothing, but if someone redeemed her, they could earn a lot.
But Jiang Mengli still wanted to redeem the person at a low price, so he directly offered: "Two hundred taels. If you are willing, then it's a deal. If not, forget it."
“!!”
The price of five thousand taels was directly reduced to two hundred taels. The difference was huge.
The big man was stunned for two breaths before he laughed awkwardly and said, "Are you kidding? Two hundred taels is far too little. He Yu spent a lot of money to buy it."
Jiang Mengli crossed his arms and said in a stern voice, "The reason I came to redeem him this time is because he seemed pretty good last time, but look at what he's become now."
"I like smooth skin, but he's covered in wounds. Even after his wounds heal, there will be scars. Now he's just like a beggar on the street. I'm glad to give you two hundred taels."
The big man: “…” Speechless.
Jiang Mengli continued, "Even when I buy fruit, I like it to be intact, let alone people. No matter what it is, if it rots, it's worthless."
"Look at all the injuries he's got. He might even have internal injuries. I might not be able to keep him alive if I buy him. Only a fool would pay a high price for him!"
This made more and more sense, so the big man could only ask them to wait while he went to convey his meaning to the manager.
Not long after, the steward brought He Yu down and said with a flattering smile, "Don't worry, sir. His injuries are not serious. He just needs to be washed. Two hundred taels is indeed too much..."
"Let's go." Jiang Mengli turned around without waiting for him to finish and got on the carriage without hesitation.
He Yu panicked after seeing this and knelt on the ground, saying, "Don't go. Please redeem me and let me leave here..."
Jiang Mengli lifted the curtain and said coldly: "It's not worth it. It's better to redeem a healthy person than to pay a high price for someone like you who is covered in bruises. It would be a relief for you to die in this state. I support you to die."
After saying that, he let the driver go.
When the steward saw the carriage start, he hesitated for a moment and hurriedly called out, "Okay, we'll do it at your price!"
Jiang Mengli in the carriage raised the corner of his mouth and took out two hundred taels of silver and handed it over.
The steward sighed and took it, handing her the indenture.
The person in charge was very dissatisfied with the price, but what else could he do?
"You can get out of here now!" The steward glared at He Yu unhappily, cursing, "This is such damn bad luck! Get out of here as far as you can!"
He Yu was overjoyed. She limped to the carriage and was cleverly pulled aboard.
He immediately knelt down inside the carriage and kowtowed to express his gratitude, "Thank you very much, sir. I will work like a slave to repay you."
Jiang Mengli helped him up and said, "Get up. I'll let you down later. You can go back to where you came from. Redeeming you doesn't mean you have to work like a slave."
When the carriage reached an intersection, it stopped, but He Yu refused to leave and insisted on following her.
Even if he really left, he had nowhere to go.
He no longer remembered where his home was or his name. The name He Yu was given to him by the people in the building.
Jiang Mengli was helpless and could only take him back to his small house to treat and bandage his wounds.
After washing up, he turned back into a handsome boy, looking so well-behaved, like a little white rabbit that is easy to bully.
"You're quite good-looking." Jiang Mengli smiled and pinched his cheek. "You can live here and help me with some things. Treat it as your own home."
He Yu's ears blushed, and she lowered her eyes shyly and nodded, "Sister Li is also very beautiful. She is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen... I have ever seen."
It turns out that she is really a woman. I thought it was an illusion when I was drinking last time.
Although she was a little drunk, many of her words remained in my mind, even her identity as Princess Yu, Jiang Mengli.
Hahaha……
"You have good taste..." Jiang Mengli smiled happily after hearing his words, "I also think I am very beautiful, more beautiful than most women in the capital."
"Ahem... Um, do you still remember what happened when we drank together that time? Did we do anything intimate?"
He Yu blushed and lowered her head, her fingers nervously pinching the corner of her clothes, recalling the scene of that night.
She leaned against him and touched his chest. It was indeed very intimate...
"Well, we did something quite intimate..." He Yu nodded, her cheeks already red and burning hot.
Rumble...
His words were like a bolt from the blue, making Jiang Mengli's head buzz.
I actually lost my virginity to him, it wasn't an illusion...
Ahem…
Jiang Mengli coughed twice to ease the awkward atmosphere. "Let's not talk about that anymore. Just pretend it never happened. Got it?"
He Yu pursed her lips and nodded, "I understand. After all, if outsiders knew about it, it would affect your reputation. I will keep it a secret."
As the Princess of Yu, she frequented brothels and even hugged young prostitutes. If this were to be made public, she would be ridiculed by the world.
In his eyes, Jiang Mengli was his benefactor, so he naturally wouldn't tell anyone.
Jiang Mengli nodded in relief, "Okay, from now on, just pretend it never happened. Go to bed early. I'm leaving."
After giving the instructions, he went back to his room to rest.
I lay in bed tossing and turning, unable to sleep, wondering how to get a divorce.
Wen Mohan also couldn't sleep, so he sat on the steps with a wine jug and drank under the moon.
Yun Jian sighed and said, "Master, alcohol is very harmful to your health. You've been drunk every night these past few days, but drinking won't solve the problem."
Wen Mohan put down the wine jug, frowned, and said, "If I spread the news that I will give her half of my inheritance, will she come back? I have to keep her to atone for my sins and cannot let her leave."
"You..." Yun Jian hesitated, "She doesn't want anything for a divorce, so what she wants most now is a divorce, not property."
"From your perspective, it's not her who's suffering, but you, my Lord. While you're here drowning your sorrows in wine, who knows where she's enjoying herself."
Wen Mohan narrowed his eyes and fell silent. After a while, he got up and went back into the house.
Before noon the next day, the news that His Royal Highness Prince Yu wanted to divorce his wife spread throughout the capital.
"Miss, good news!" Lingqiao ran into Jiang Mengli's house in a hurry.
Jiang Mengli was lying on the couch taking a nap. When she heard the noise, she lazily opened her eyes and stood up, yawning, "What good news? Could it be that that bastard Wen Mohan is getting a divorce?"
Lingqiao nodded and said, "Almost...almost, but he wants to divorce his wife."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Mengli immediately stood up with full energy and said, "Let's go back to Prince Yu's Mansion and get the divorce letter!"
