Noble Lady

Chapter 109: It’s Just Profitable

"Mrs. Xu is becoming more and more presumptuous now!" Yuzhu's face was gloomy and she was almost angry to death.

"Even the Madam wouldn't force her daughter to stay with the He family. What right does an old woman like her have to make irresponsible comments and point fingers? Why doesn't she let her daughter marry He Minzhi?"

If she hadn't considered Madam He's face, she would have scolded Mother Xu in person.

Yumei put her hands on her hips and said angrily, "Didn't the young lady let her daughter get married? She was so scared that she didn't dare to speak."

Xue Chenyu sneered, "That's because she knows He Minzhi is not a good person. She doesn't care if other people's daughters suffer, but she would naturally not want to see her own daughter suffer."

Qiuhua and Dongyue looked at each other and decided to give her a tough time.

So when Mother Xu woke up in the middle of the night, she found a piece of white paper stuck on the mirror in the room, with a few big words written in blood: Gossip girl should die.

She doesn't know many words, but these few are just enough for her to recognize.

The most terrifying thing was that the blood was still dripping down from the paper.

She screamed in fright, rolled her eyes and fainted.

Then I became honest.

However, this is a story for another day.

"Yumei, didn't you say before that you had a distant uncle working at Yuelu Academy who could help us get some information about Sun Ping'an? After all this time, have you found any clues?"

"It's already been agreed that the letter will arrive today. I'm going to pick it up later. No matter what the investigation is, my distant uncle will write to me."

Xue Chenyu nodded and told her to go quickly.

Yumei left the house openly and went to the post station.

Then he sneaked into the teahouse near the post station and went straight to the private room on the second floor.

"Why would you ask me to come here specially if you can't pass on the message? If the girl finds out, I'll be in trouble."

Yumei started complaining as soon as she sat down.

A young man in a turquoise robe and a silver hair crown sat opposite, looking extremely handsome.

But he just glanced at her, picked up the teacup and took a sip as if nothing had happened.

Yumei waited for a long time but he didn't say anything.

"Junior, Master, Uncle!" he said with gritted teeth.

A pair of turquoise sleeves floated past her eyes, and then gave her a slap in the face.

"Try to be disrespectful again."

Yumei is timid.

"Come on, what's the matter? Didn't we agree to have someone send a letter back from Yuelu Academy? Is there anything that can't be said in the letter?"

Situ Zhen lowered his eyelids, hiding the slightest hint of murderous intent in his eyes.

"That guy called Sun Ping'an is not a good person. Tell Miss Xue to be careful of that Madam Xu."

Yumei became interested when she heard this, "Tell me quickly."

"Sun Ping'an's so-called marriage to the headmaster's daughter was actually just a marriage to a concubine's daughter that no one cared about, and the relationship between the couple was average. It's all written in these letters."

"Is there something else that's not written in the letter? Tell me quickly, Junior Master."

Situ Zhen said nothing and handed her a painting.

Yumei couldn't wait to unfold it.

It was a picture of a lady.

The woman in the painting is dressed in a short brown shirt and looks like she is swearing, but she is very young. She is looking at the water, but no one knows what she is looking at.

Wait, the woman in this painting looks somewhat familiar.

As Yumei looked carefully and saw the appearance of the person in the painting clearly, she instantly got goosebumps.

"Hey! If the girl saw this, wouldn't she be disgusted to death?"

Situ Zhen said in a deep voice, "So she must not know about this."

Yumei couldn't help but shiver.

Oh my God, such a good girl has been coveted by a mother-in-law's son for so long, and now that he is married, he still comes to disgust her, and there is an old mother watching over her for him every day.

How could she dare to say this? If her junior master didn't beat her to death, she would despise herself.

……

The people from Jiangjia Escort Agency came back from the south and brought three large baskets of lychees preserved in ice to Xue Chenyu.

These are the earliest lychees this year. They have just been eaten in the south, but they can’t wait to bring them back.

Xue Chenyu was beaming with joy as she saw this thing, as it was a rare commodity in the north.

They are bought individually on the market.

Those who can sell by the basket like her are all because their grandparents have an escort company that travels all over the country.

Yumei quickly brought the letter back via the post station and handed it to Xue Chenyu.

The handwriting on the letter looked like that of someone who could only read a few words, and the language was simple.

It simply and neatly explains that the girl Sun Ping'an married was a concubine's daughter from the headmaster's family of Yuelu Academy, who no one paid attention to. After bringing her home, she was just thrown aside.

Moreover, when he got married, the neighbors heard his parents arguing with him.

The general content of the argument was that Sun Ping'an already had a woman he liked in Kyoto, but the woman's parents did not want her to get married, so he married his current wife.

His parents also told him not to worry about it and to settle down in peace after getting married.

As for the letter, Yumei didn't dare to mention a single word.

Just thinking about it made her feel sick for the girl.

Xue Chenyu felt confused after reading it.

Since you have married someone, you should treat her sincerely. If you don't treat her well but still marry her, isn't this the same type of person as He Minzhi?

Her impression of Sun Ping'an was immediately greatly reduced.

In the final analysis, it is still profitable.

Although she is the concubine's daughter of the headmaster, she is still the headmaster's daughter, so she can have some relationship with him.

And from Mrs. Xu's behavior, it was obvious that she knew everything, but she still tried to persuade people with those words, which made people dislike her for no reason.

Xue Chenyu returned the letter to Yumei and said, "Thank you for me, my distant cousin. Please give me the address and I will ask someone to send a generous gift to you someday."

"This, this is not necessary. My cousin is an honest man. He just helped me. He won't accept such generous gifts from a girl." Yumei waved her hands hurriedly.

This person was originally made up by her, and Sun Ping'an was also investigated by her uncle. Where could she get an address for the girl?

"It's precisely because your distant cousin is an honest man that I can't let him help me in vain. He came all the way here to help me get information. I can't let him go through all the trouble in vain. This is not my way of dealing with people."

Yumei is about to cry.

What to do? Make one up?

"What's wrong? Are you in a difficult situation?" Xue Chenyu was puzzled by her conflicted expression.

At this time, Yuzhu said, "Miss, Yumei's cousin works at the academy over there, so it's not appropriate for him to accept your generous gift in a high-profile manner. If someone gets caught up in it, anything could happen."

"Besides, workers usually live in a room with several people. Where is there a place to store the gift you gave me?"

"I actually overlooked this point." Xue Chenyu suddenly realized.

Seeing that Yuzhu had smoothed things over for her, Yumei heaved a sigh of relief. "Yes, yes, that's what I meant. I'm not good at speaking and don't know how to put it."

If you are not good at speaking, there will be no one who is eloquent.

Xue Chenyu smiled and didn't force it anymore. She just said that she had prepared the gift first and would send it to them when they were ready.

Yumei had nothing else to say but to agree.

At this point, she fully understood what the junior master meant when he said when they left the teahouse that it would not be so easy for her to come back.

If she had known that he would ask her if she needed help, she would have agreed immediately.

Regret.

The matter of Sun Ping'an has been resolved. Xue Chenyu also wrote a letter to Madam Xue, asking her to tell Marquis Wu'an to sever ties between Sun Ping'an and the family as soon as possible.
