Chapter 81: She’ll Definitely Take Me In!
One of the jade pieces was the one she was considering gifting to An Jiuyue. However, everything on the table was gone overnight.
Panicked, she rushed up to a worker in the inn and learned that Xue Ling had checked out and left on her own!
In other words, Xue Ling had come to her room, taken away the things on her table, bought a carriage, and left her alone!
“Xue Ling, you’re really ruthless!”
Xue Ling had thought that Qian Yiyun had already gifted the jade pendant to An Jiuyue.
!!Xue Ling saw the things on the table and was probably very pleased by the thought that I would be penniless! She wanted to see me in trouble, right?
There is a saying that a woman’s heart is the most vicious. Xue Ling is such a spiteful woman! She has always said that she wants to treat me as her younger sister and marry my brother in the future.
Yet, this is how she treats me?
Isn’t she afraid that my brother will never want to see her again when he finds out about this?
Marry my brother? Is someone like Xue Ling worthy?
“I have to think of a solution. I can’t stay here forever.”
Her room had also been checked out, and the two jade pendants she had were of superior quality. She was reluctant to sell them.
She had already planned to give a jade pendant to Sister Jiuyue. She wanted to wait for her brother to settle his matters first before preparing a proper gift together to thank An Jiuyue for saving their lives.
The two jade pendants were a fixed pair. She would keep one and give the other to An Jiuyue. It was a great plan!
“Right! I can go back and find Sister Jiuyue. She’ll definitely take me in!”
She could not return to look for her brother because she was penniless.
It was also not a good idea to wait for her brother here. There would be all kinds of riots and violence after the flood.
Xue Ling had left her with no way out. How could she return home if she could not even afford a carriage? She also could not wait for her brother to fetch her. It would usually take more than three days to return, but it would require more time given her difficult situation.
Was she supposed to starve for the next few days?
Hence, she decided to return to An Jiuyue’s house and wait for her brother to pick her up.
She believed that he would definitely know where she went. He knew her best.
…
Carrying a pickaxe, An Jiuyue returned home after a busy morning in the forest.
She almost dropped the pickaxe on her foot when she heard a familiar voice coming from the treehouse.
Wei Na also noticed it and reminded, “Master, your sister-in-law is back.”
It won’t be easy to get rid of this person! Now that she’s back, Master’s husband will be back too!
“Why is she back?”
An Jiuyue was also puzzled and wondered if Qian Jiyun was here too.
She placed the pickaxed in the straw shed and hurried upstairs. She was relieved to see Qian Yiyun alone.
“Why did you come back on your own?” she asked.
“Sister Jiuyue, we were going to rush back as quickly as possible, but Xue Ling insisted on staying in town for a day. I was afraid of delaying Big Brother, so I told him to leave first.
