Shadow Thirteen said indifferently, “That’s because you’re blocking my master’s path!”
The girl was stunned.
Shadow Thirteen strode forward.
The girl caught up to him again and knelt in front of Shadow Thirteen. “Young Master, please take Xianglian in! I lost my mother when I was young and relied on my father. Now, my father has pa.s.sed away, I am lonely and helpless. I won’t be able to live in the future.”
Shadow Thirteen said coldly, “What does your life have to do with me? Move aside!”
“Young Master!” The girl grabbed the hem of Shadow Thirteen’s clothes and begged bitterly, “I can’t take Young Master’s money for nothing… I’m willing to be your slave!”
The crowd that had finally evacuated squeezed over again because of the young girl’s behavior of cozy up to someone powerful.
Shadow Thirteen clenched his fists gloomily. “Is it because you can’t live on your own or is it to repay your debt?”
“B-both,” the girl choked.
“What’s wrong with Shadow Thirteen?” Yu Wan looked in Shadow Thirteen’s direction and saw that he seemed to be entangled by a little girl. “Let’s go take a look.”
Shadow Six returned very quickly and said to Yu Wan, “It’s the little girl who sold herself to bury her father just now. She said that she sold herself to bury her father. Shadow Thirteen buried her father, so she’s Shadow Thirteen’s woman. Shadow Thirteen doesn’t want her, so she refuses to leave.”
Yu Wan paused. “Bring her over.”
“Yes!” Shadow Six went to bring the girl over. “My Young Madam wants to see you.”
The girl knelt on the ground and kowtowed in the direction of the carriage. “Xianglian greets Young Madam!”
Yu Wan lifted the curtain of the car window and looked at her. “What did you say… your name was?
“My name is Xianglian!” The girl knelt on the ground and replied.
Yu Wan asked indifferently, “Where are you from? Your accent doesn’t sound like you’re from the West City.”
Xianglian replied, “Young Madam, I’m from the Great Zhou and came here with my father when he was doing business. Who knew that my father would suddenly die of an illness and the money in his hands would be s.n.a.t.c.hed away? I really had no choice but to sell myself and bury my father… I really have nowhere to go… Young Madam, please take me in!”
Yu Wan said, “We buried your father for you, but you still want to rely on us. This is unreasonable. If you have difficulties, go to the authorities. Where are you from? The authorities will send you back.”
Xianglian looked up at Yu Wan. “But I don’t have any family left!”
Yu Wan looked at this delicate and beautiful face and slowly said, “I met you by chance. Just because I’m kind, I have to be responsible for you to the end? Miss, you’re bullying honest people, do you know that?”
Even if this was the Helian family’s fief, there was no reason for her to take someone in. Moreover, she said that she was from the Great Zhou. “Where are you from in the Great Zhou?” Yu Wan asked.
“Yan City,” Xianglian said.
No way, what a coincidence? They avoided the Helian family’s fief, but went to Yan Jiuchao’s fief. As the mistress of Yan City, she naturally could not let the people of Yan City wander outside. But why did she feel that this matter was a little strange? Yu Wan’s gaze landed on her face. “Be more specific. Where are you from in Yan City? Which street, which house?”
Xianglian wiped her tears and replied, “My house is on Qingliu Street in the east of Yan City, Qingliu Alley. My house sells spices, and the shop isn’t big. There aren’t many customers who come to the shop. Most of the time, my father and I carry our luggages to the streets to hawk.”
Yu Wan looked at Shadow Thirteen and Shadow Six.
The two of them nodded slightly. They didn’t know if the spice shop was a spice shop, but Qingliu Street and Qingliu Alley were right. It didn’t seem like it was made up at the last minute since they could be so specific.
Yu Wan said indifferently, “How about this? I want to go to the Great Zhou too. Although I won’t pa.s.s through Yan City, I can put you near Yan City. Since you still have a shop at home, you can continue running it yourself. If you really don’t want to run it, you can sell it. After that, you could take that money and see if you can make some other livelihood. It’s much better than being someone’s maidservant. If you’re willing, I’ll bring you along. If you’re unwilling, then retreat. I’ll pretend that I haven’t seen you today.”
Xianglian took a few steps on her knees and held the wheel of the carriage. “I…
I’m willing! I’ll listen to Madam!”
“Let her and Pinz’er take the same carriaze,” Yu Wan instructed.
Shadow Six brought her to Ping’er’s carriage.
“Young Madam.” Shadow Thirteen looked at Yu Wan deeply. Yu Wan said, “You think there’s something wrong with her too, right?”
“I just think… it’s too much of a coincidence.”
Yu Wan sneered. “That’s right. Something happened in the Helian family’s fief, so I can’t leave her alone. She’s also from Yan City, so Yan Jiuchao can’t leave her alone… This ident.i.ty is quite interesting.”
She had just left Nanzhao, but she was already being pestered. It was not her fault for conspiracy theories. It was really because along the way, there were too many people who wanted to make things difficult for them. It was not wrong to be more careful.
Shadow Thirteen whispered, “Young Madam, do you need… me to deal with her? So as to eliminate future troubles.’
Yu Wan smiled faintly. “After dealing with this, you want them to place someone more powerful later?”
It was not that this woman called Xianglian was definitely someone’s spy. Everything was still Yu Wan’s cautious guess. However, if Xianglian was innocent, dealing with her would be wronging her. If Xianglian was instructed by someone, then accepting this would not only make the other party temporarily lower their guard, but also allow them to follow the clues and see who was so anxious to deal with them!
“Do you need me to remind Ping’er?” Shadow Thirteen asked.
Yu Wan waved her hand. “There’s no need. That girl is silly. It’s safer if she doesn’t know.” If she knew, she might expose herself and be killed by the other party.
Shadow Thirteen felt that this was feasible. He thought of something and asked, “Young Master and the little masters…”
Yu Wan couldn’t help but laugh. “There’s no need to remind them.”
It was already Amitabha if the four of them didn’t cause trouble for others. Who could harm them? As she spoke, Yan Jiuchao returned with a bunch of little black eggs. Each of the little black eggs was holding a bunch of sparkling candied hawthorn.
“I want to ride a horse!” Xiaobao said.
“I want it too!” Er’bao said.
Dabao nodded! Yes, yes, yes!
Yan Jiuchao threw the three little eggs to Shadow Thirteen and Shadow Six. Shadow Six brought Xiaobao, and Shadow Thirteen brought Er’bao and Dabao to ride on two tall horses. The three of them licked their sparkling candied hawthorn and sat on the horses, looking especially proud!
Yu Wan suddenly felt a little craving for her son’s candied hawthorn. It was sour and sweet and looked delicious.
Rumble-
Yu Wan swallowed her saliva. Just as she swallowed it, a stick of candied hawthorn that was bigger and brighter than the candied hawthorn in the three little eggs’ hands was placed in front of Yu Wan.
Yu Wan was stunned. Her original intention was, How did he know that I wanted to eat candied hawthorn? She clearly didn’t want to eat it just now, but she was craving it now.
Seeing that she was standing there without moving, Yan Jiuchao said with disdain, “Why? Isn’t it enough to buy it for you? Do you still want me to feed you? Do you think the food will smell good after I feed you?”
“I’ve really spoiled you!”
Before Yu Wan could say no, Yan Jiuchao carried Yu Wan onto his lap coldly and fed her in disdain (not really)..
