Chapter 51 - Misunderstanding

Chun Hua and Qiu Yue were picking around in the pawnshop, telling the pawnshop assistant to take out some of the cheapest jewelry for them to look at, but this was a pawnshop, the treasures that they received would not be displayed, and the cheapest jewelry here was also worth a lot, making it difficult for the two of them to find it.

Especially for Chun Hua, she had always been worried about Master's situation in the Gu Xiangfu, and knew that she could only use that money on blades, not carelessly spending it.

”Chun Hua, Chun Hua.” Hiding behind the door, Qiu Yue stuck her head out and anxiously called for Chun Hua.

Chun Hua quickly walked over, and just as she wanted to see what was so interesting, she saw that she had been pulled by Qiu Yue and hid behind the door.

”Hide yourself, don't let anyone see.” Qiu Yue lowered her voice and said, then pointed to a figure on the street, ”Look and see, is she the singer from the house?”

Chun Hua stuck her head out and looked in the direction Qiu Yue pointed. A woman dressed in white, and wearing a veil, was walking slowly on the street. She did not have a servant following behind her, she was just strolling around by herself.

”It's her.” Chun Hua also recognized the veiled lady.

”I wonder what he's planning.” Qiu Yue said unhappily: ”Why don't we follow them so that the venomous woman won't think of a way to harm our Lady.”

Chun Hua held onto the person who said that wind was rain, and said solemnly: ”You can't go, what if something happens to Madam?”

”Fine.” Qiu Yue replied bitterly, and continued to lie behind the door to observe.

Chun Hua let go of Qiu Yue and was no longer in the mood to care about Wen Meng's matters. Recalling the scene she saw at the Nine Winding Corridor, it was as if a thorn was stuck in her throat.

Chun Hua turned to look at the guards in the room, to confirm that they did not hear what the two had said.

Seeing that the two of them were acting weirdly, and since they were Yun Qianliang's servants, Gu San found it inconvenient to speak, and pretended not to see them.

Gu Yicheng and Yun Qianliang came out from the rear hall. Qiu Yue hurried forward to make her report, but was stopped by Chun Hua.

Chun Hua looked at Gu Yicheng vigilantly, then went closer to Yun Qianliang and whispered into her ears, ”Miss, we saw Wen Meng walking past the shop in a panic just now, so we had to turn our heads to check on the situation.”

”In which direction?” Yun Qianliang asked without hiding anything.

She dared to make people stare at Wen Meng in front of Gu Yicheng, so she was not afraid that she would come and argue with her.

Wen Meng frequently turned her head, and was extremely likely to discover that she was being followed, but she could also be testing if she was being followed, since she did not completely believe what Wen Meng had said, but she did not dare take the risk, and would definitely think of a way to resolve her worries.

”To the east.” Qiu Yue replied.

”Manager Xu, I'll have to trouble you to send someone to the east to look for Gu Shisan. Help him out for a while.” Yun Qianliang's eyes turned slightly as smoke started to circulate in his head, making him smile faintly.

”This little one will do it right away.” Manager Xu turned around and returned to the rear hall.

”Have you chosen?” Yun Qianliang saw that the two of them had nothing in their hands.

”Madam, how about we forget about it?” Chun Hua hesitated.

”Chun Hua, don't mention it.” Yun Qianliang raised her eyebrows.

”This …” Chun Hua became more hesitant.

As the saying goes, if you eat someone while their mouth is soft, then you will have to use someone else's hand.

She didn't like the fact that the Gu Xiang Lord was partial to the muse, and even more so didn't want to give up her master.

”If Madam really wants to give Chun Hua her jewelry, why not give the hairpin in the jewelry box to Chun Hua?” Chun Hua took the initiative to request the things that Yun Qianliang had, without spending any money, and did not let her master have any good intentions either.

Yun Qianliang remembered that hairpin flower, it was made from black sandalwood and it had orange flowers on it. The green leaves matched well, the tip of the hairpin had carved into a deer lying cross-legged, the workmanship was not considered good, it was noble in the artistic conception, but she felt that the hairpin of the ebony had aged a little, and was not suitable for young girls to wear, hence Chun Hua kept it in the jewelry box.

”That ebony hairpin is not suitable for people your age.” Yun Qianliang advised.

”Chun Hua just so happens to love those charming things. Chun Hua spoke sincerely, she was unwilling to choose from the accessories in the pawnshop, ”Furthermore, the hairpin was personally picked by Madam, so Chun Hua believes in Madam's judgement.”

”Madam's eyesight must be extremely good. Qiu Yue also wants to choose from Madame's jewelry.” Qiu Yue sweetly followed along with giving up such a great opportunity. Her heart was filled with sincerity, and was unable to find a single trace of reluctance or reluctance towards these precious items.

Yun Qianliang sighed in his heart, in the end, she was not strong enough, so he had to meticulously calculate her livelihood. Originally, she was worried that she might not be able to live a good life, and wanted Gu Yicheng to pay for it, but he did not expect that the two girls would see through her situation so clearly.

Using her own body to exchange for Gu Yicheng to protect the two girls, was truly a good deal.

”Whatever, I thought too early about the dowry. I'll get it again in the future when I have the chance.” Seeing the two servants let out a sigh of relief, Yun Qianliang felt funny and warm in his heart.

In the end, Gu Yicheng still chose to put on an act.

After exiting the Zheng'an Pawnshop, Yun Qianliang reckoned that Jing Zhao Mansion would have finished his interrogation and returned. If she went to the Jing Zhao Mansion now, he would be able to gather all the information he needed, and would be able to take advantage of the situation. He decided to make a trip to the Jing Zhao Mansion before returning home.

”Master, I …” Just as Yun Qianliang wanted to leave, she was interrupted before she could finish, ”It's rare that you have nothing better to do, how about I accompany Madam on a stroll?”
