Chapter 397: Living in the Capital (2/2)



Zhao Xiaojuan paused for a moment. She observed Li Qingyun's reaction. Seeing that his expression was not as disgusted as before, she continued, "My elder brother and I can't survive in Taoyuan Township anymore. We want to seek refuge with you. Please think of a way to let us enter the Duke's Mansion."

Li Qingyun was stunned. They actually wanted to enter the Duke's Mansion? This was absolutely not allowed.

"Or, rent a house outside for us to live in." Seeing Li Qingyun's expression, Zhao Xiaojuan knew that it was not easy to enter the Duke's Mansion, so she quickly told him their other plan.

"Qingyun, you are still young, and it is not convenient for you to handle things without your own people. It would be different if my brother and I were by your side. If you have any inconvenient things to handle in the future, you can leave it to us."

Zhao Xiaojuan continued to seduce Li Qingyun.

The speaker may not mean it, but the listener may take it seriously.

Li Qingyun's heart moved. Is it inconvenient to express his feelings?

Just because he doesn't have it now doesn't mean he won't have it in the future.

Li Qingyun suddenly had an idea in his mind. He looked around but did not see Li Heng.

He finally felt relieved when he saw the carriage from the Duke's Mansion was still parked at the corner.

He quickly took out two silver notes from his clothes pouch and handed them to Zhao Xiaojuan: "Sister, this is all I have. Take it first and find a place to stay."

Zhao Xiaojuan snatched the banknote and happily replied, "Okay, okay, I'll send you a letter after we're settled."

Li Qingyun nodded, said no more, turned and left.

Only when Li Qingyun's figure disappeared from sight did Zhao Xiaojuan gently shake the banknote in her hand, turn her gaze to Zhao Qingshui, and say proudly, "See? I got the money so easily."

Zhao Qingshui took the banknote, rubbed it with both hands, and was so excited that he could hardly control himself.

It would take me and my sister ten years to earn all these banknotes.

Zhao Xiaojuan and Zhao Qingshui took the silver note and went to find an inn to stay in, planning to rent a house tomorrow. With the twenty taels and the support of Li Qingyun in the future, they could live the life of people in the capital.

When Li Qingyun was heading towards the carriage, he ran into the servant who was looking for him.

"Master Qingyun, where did you go just now? I've been looking for you for a long time." The servant asked anxiously.

It had been a while since school was over, but he still hadn't come out, so I thought something had happened to him.

Li Qingyun's heart tightened. Could it be that he had discovered something? He replied calmly, "I just looked around."

The servant heaved a sigh of relief and said, "That's good. Let's go back home quickly. It's almost dark."

In the carriage, Li Heng looked at Li Qingyun who was bending over to come in, and gave him a deep look.

Because Li Heng had been practicing martial arts since he was a child, his eyesight had always been good, and he recognized Zhao Xiaojuan and Zhao Qingshui.

After all, when he was still Lu Wuxu, he had accompanied Zhao Qingsong to Taoyuan Township many times and had met Zhao Qingshui and Zhao Xiaojuan.

In fact, when Li Heng learned that Li Qingyun was exchanged for Qingsong by his parents when he was a child, he began to feel disgusted with him.

Qingsong had an affair when he was a child. Although Zhao Qingsong and Aunt Qian treated him as a child and did not say anything to him, he heard some information when Senior Brother Lu Qing and Senior Brother Lu Ran were chatting.

Therefore, when he first learned that his grandparents adopted Li Qingyun, he thought he was just an orphan with no one to rely on, and he did not object.

But when he learned that Li Qingyun was the child who was exchanged for Qingsong, Li Heng was unhappy and he went to see his grandfather and grandmother in private.

But grandpa and grandma thought he was jealous of Li Qingyun.

The two elders said that Li Heng would always be their most beloved grandson, and the title of Duke would also be passed on to him.

However, Li Heng was disappointed by this because he didn't care about the title at all.

In desperation, he could only ignore Li Qingyun.
