990 Thank You Gift

Xie Qiao’s words about the Commandery Princess having another calamity were also true.
It could be considered a calamity in love, but the problem was not particularly big. The main thing was that she should relax and not be persistent.
Once one became persistent in everything, they would lose their rationality. Their rationality would run away, and their luck would not be able to catch up even if
they wanted to.
In a person’s life, there were all kinds of calamities and tribulations. Some innate environments and calamities weren not easy to change. For example, her eldest
brother’s lonely fate, but Zhao Jialing’s current situation was formed after birth, so it was easy to avoid it.
What she was afraid of was that if Zhao Jialing was like Dong Yiyun back then and did not listen to her advice, then she would have no choice.
However, now it seemed that there were some benefits to Zhao Jialing’s previous shock. At the very least, she looked much more timid now. Presumably, for the
sake of her fragile life, she would be apprehensive and careful in the future. She would not dare to act recklessly.
Zhao Jialing really knew fear.
In those foolish days, she did not know what she was doing, but she could recall that feeling of fear and panic.
Moreover, her heart was empty, just like duckweed without any support. That kind of emotion was too terrifying.
Scholar, Feng Yingying…
If her mother did not mention it to the master, she would not be able to remember it at all…
“Since the Commandery Princess is already doing well, then there’s nothing for me to do,” Xie Qiao said with a smile.
The princess let out a sigh of relief. “It’s been hard on Master. It’s just that I don’t know what else my daughter needs to pay attention to these days, such as eating
and drinking…”
“Just look for a doctor to take a look at her. You can eat whatever the doctor tells you to eat.”
“Alright.” The princess nodded and comforted her daughter. Then, she asked the new maid servant to accompany her daughter while she went to send the master
off.
The main thing was to present the thank you gift.
Prince Yong Lin’s Residence was indeed extravagant.
Two pairs of top-quality hundred-year-old mountain ginseng, some blood bird’s nests, and some high-quality dry goods were followed by 5,000 taels of silver.
“Thank you for this, Master. I hope you will accept these gifts.” The princess was very generous.
It would be terrible to take so much. However, it was indeed difficult to buy such good quality mountain ginseng out there. Furthermore, they were big. Recently,
she needed many pills, so she accepted them. As for the money, Xie Qiao returned 2,000 taels of silver.
“It’s just looking for a living soul. It’s enough that I accept these.” Xie Qiao said.
“I’ve already heard from Huan’er that it was you who could communicate with both worlds that we’re able to find my daughter from such a remote place. If it was
anyone else, how could it be so fast? Although Prince Yong Lin’s Residence’s reputation isn’t that great, my family is indeed wealthy. How can these things be
compared to my precious daughter? It’s just that it’s not good to go against Prince Ning Bei’s side, so I have to give these rewards. I would be willing to give even
10,000 or 20,000 taels of silver.”
“It’s too much. 3,000 taels of silver and these mountain ginseng are really enough. If the Princess feels uneasy, you can use the rest of the money to do good deeds.
You can also acc.u.mulate some fortune and benefit your children and grandchildren.”
Seeing that Xie Qiao was very persistent, the princess could not persuade her anymore.
“I will definitely listen to Master.” The princess was very solemn.
These things were placed on Xie Qiao’s carriage. After sending the gifts back, Xie Qiao took the wooden figure and looked for the ghoul of the Baili family.
However, after chanting a few times and performing divinations a few times, she could only confirm that the ghoul was in the southwest direction. After waiting for
an entire afternoon, she did not see the ghoul float over.
It was strange.
Being able to sense the location meant that the ghoul was still there and had not dissipated.
Did it mean that the ghoul was imprisoned?
Xie Qiao could not find the ghoul for the time being, so she could not do anything about it. She was too tired, so she decided to sleep for the night. She planned to
bring the wooden figure around the next day. If she got close enough, she would definitely be able to see it from the wooden figure..
