Chapter 93
It’s Dark, The Moment To Do Great Things1
“Of course save the man.” Qu Tan’er shrugged her shoulders, waited for Jing Xin to do it by herself, turned around and glanced at the surrounding stores. One didn’t know if he was just lucky or something, but there was a pharmacy nearby.
After bringing the man to the pharmacy, she didn’t have time for him to wake up. When she was sure the man wouldn’t die, because she didn’t bring any money and the value of the banknote in her hand was too large, Qu Tan’er had no choice but to find valuable jewelry to pay for the medicine bill. After looking around, she pulled a hairpin from Jing Xin’s hair.
When they left the pharmacy, the sky had sunk.
Nothing else happened on the way back.
From the gate of the palace to the snow courtyard, things seemed too quiet and weird.
“Where have you been? Why haven’t you come back until now?” Su Yuela came out of the inner room.
“I went out of the house for a stroll. I didn’t know. It turned out that it was so easy for us to go out of the house. We just stepped out and didn’t even have to climb the wall to escape as before.” Qu Tan’er lay on the rocking chair and looked at ease.
“Really?” Su Yuela’s face changed, but she didn’t say much. When she turned her eyes to the plate on the table, she spoke again, “Lady Yun sent that plate of snacks saying that she wanted to talk to you, but when she saw that you were not here, she went back.”
“Yun Youlian?” Qu Tan’er raised her eyebrows gently and looked at the desserts in front of her with a faint smile. Without saying much, she casually picked up a piece to taste.
“Tan’er, be careful that there isn’t anything in there.” Su Yuela was shocked and hurriedly wanted to stop her.
“Don’t worry, it’s okay. Think about it. Would she dare to drug what she sent in person?” Qu Tan’er waved her hand and chuckled. She ignored Su Yuela’s nervousness and ate the snacks in her hand.
It tasted good, but it was a little cold.
Yun Youlian wanted to talk to her? One doesn’t visit a temple without a cause1. Apparently she came to harvest some fruit.
“It couldn’t be that she wants to make you leave, right?”
“It appears that there’s something like that.” Qu Tan’er looked at Su Yuela with a smile, but it was a pity… What she didn’t want to give, even if someone else put a knife on her neck, no one could take it from her.
In the household, it quieted down, and no one spoke again.
Night came quickly and was extremely dark.
There were not many people in the snow courtyard usually, but when it came to night, everyone in the courtyard rested and it was particularly quiet.
Under the faint moonlight, there was a dodging figure.
Qu Tan’er secretly glanced at the situation outside the door, and when she was sure that no one was there, she quickly opened the door, closed the door, and ran forward. She was hindered only a little while running just because there was a bag of things on her back.
In a flash, she finally found a piece of ground in the backyard that couldn’t be better. The soil under the tree was a bit loose, which was convenient to dig up, but was not easy to notice.
She put down the bag on her back and began to dig the soil with a shovel that she had prepared long before. Soon, she dug a hole in the ground. When everything was ready, she casually took out the books and brushes in her arms.
“One pearl chain.” Qu Tan’er whispered, then opened the book and wrote it down. After finis.h.i.+ng, she put a pearl chain from the bag into the pit, and in the pit was a small box for holding things.
