Chapter 205 Lingli
Chapter 205 Lingli
Banxia thought of the children in the house in the east of the city and said, "Princess, we haven't been to the south of the city for a long time. Dandan and Niuniu should have grown taller."
"Yes, Banxia, did anything happen in this house in the east of the city when I was not here?" Yun Yuxi tested Banxia with some concern. She knew that Banxia could not keep secrets.
Banxia's eyes were evasive and she replied, "No, no."
Yun Yuxi felt a little uncomfortable, so she said in a serious tone: "Banxia, since you are hesitant and evasive when speaking in front of me, from today on, you will follow me."
Banxia was so anxious that she burst into tears, and finally spoke out stutteringly.
"Princess, something happened, but the prince has resolved it, so I didn't think there was any need to worry you, so I didn't tell you."
"Are you going to tell me or not? I want to hear the details..."
"Princess, calm down. I was telling you that something did happen in the house in the east of the city when you were in Lingcheng. One night, Amu suddenly came, covered in blood."
"The prince immediately arranged for someone to go there, and he even went there himself. The house in the east of the city was looted by a group of men in black, and several innocent children died. The prince was afraid that you would be sad, so..."
Yun Yuxi felt cold all over and prepared to go and take a look. She believed that Yan Wuque should have settled those people. As for who did it, she would come back and ask Yan Wuque.
They soon arrived at the house in the east of the city. The house, which was once bustling, was now a little deserted. Even Dandan and Niuniu seemed to have grown up overnight.
Yun Yuxi suppressed the discomfort in her heart and listened to Amu's detailed report.
"Amu. Here are 20,000 silver notes. The New Year is coming soon. Buy new clothes for everyone and some melon seeds, peanuts and so on. Let everyone have a lively and happy New Year."
"Princess, we still have some money. The mute bought some wasteland nearby. Our people also grow their own vegetables and raise pigs. We are preparing to kill them and send some to the palace for you to taste."
"Just keep the banknote. This is the first year that we're all together, so don't save it. Give everyone a red envelope on the first day of the new year to make it more lively."
The children were very happy to learn that Yun Yuxi had arrived. Yun Yuxi told Amu some things.
Feng Jinxing looked at the increasingly beautiful Yun Yuxi, and his heart was filled with bitterness. His heart was filled with Yun Yuxi. It was a pity that they met too late and she was married.
Yun Yuxi suddenly felt a burning gaze staring at her. Following the feeling, she saw Feng Jinxing standing there. Yun Yuxi whispered:
"Jinxing. Do you want to go to the palace to celebrate the New Year? Your third brother is in Kyoto and is planning to celebrate the New Year at the palace. Do you want to come?" Yun Yuxi invited warmly.
"No, I haven't figured out how to face my third brother. Thank you for your kindness. Your Highness Princess, if you don't have anything else, I'll go and get busy first." After saying that, he ran really fast and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
He was afraid. He was afraid that he couldn't control his own heart, so he avoided it. He knew the distance between them, and even more so the difference in their identities.
Yun Yuxi said happily: "Lingyi, let's go to Sihai Restaurant and have a good meal." She missed the delicious food.
The carriage suddenly stopped. Several people in the carriage were talking and laughing, thinking that they had arrived at the Sihai Restaurant. Yun Yuxi was still wondering why time went so fast today, when she heard Lingyi's voice.
"Princess, there was an accident ahead. There is a woman lying on the road. I don't know if she is dead or alive."
Yun Yuxi was a kind-hearted doctor. He jumped off the carriage and immediately checked the woman's condition.
The woman was covered in bruises and minor wounds, and had a high fever.
"Princess, this woman looks pitiful. Let's save her," Banxia said with some concern.
Yun Yuxi carried the woman to the carriage without saying a word and asked Lingyi to go to Tongrentang.
In the room of Tongrentang, Yuelan and Lingyi were guarding outside the door, Banxia was making porridge, and Yun Yuxi was treating the woman.
Not long after, the woman woke up slowly and looked around curiously.
"Are you awake? Tell me. Why did you faint on the road? Aren't you afraid of the bad guys?" When Yun Yuxi's voice came, the woman realized that she was rescued.
"Thank you for saving my life. I am from Jinling. Something unexpected happened in my family. My parents were killed by a bitch, and I was sold to a brothel," the woman said while sobbing!
"This is Kyoto, far from Jinling. How did you end up here?"
"To be honest, young lady, I was tortured in the brothel. Because of my good looks, I was redeemed by a man and became his concubine. But the mistress couldn't tolerate me, so she secretly sold me to a poor old man," the woman cried even more sadly when she said this.
Yun Yuxi handed over a handkerchief, and the woman wiped her tears and continued:
"A relative of the old man felt sorry for me and let me go. He also gave me a few copper coins. I begged for a living all the way here, but I fainted on the road due to exhaustion."
"What are your plans for the future?" Yun Yuxi said to the woman.
The woman struggled to get out of bed, knelt in front of Yun Yuxi and said: "Please take me in, benefactor. I am willing to be a slave, just to stay alive, so that I can kill my enemies and avenge my parents one day."
At this time, Banxia brought white porridge. The woman swallowed her saliva. Yun Yuxi did not make things difficult for her. She let her eat her fill and asked Banxia to prepare hot water and clothes.
Yun Yuxi was checking the accounts of Tong Ren Tang, while Ling Yi had already gone to Ba Zhen Lou to pack up the food.
After finishing her work, Yun Yuxi felt a little hungry and happened to meet Lingyi who was coming back with some food.
The sky is big, the earth is big, and food is the most important thing. Soon, several people started to eat with relish.
"Banxia, go call the girl today." Yun Yuxi seemed to have thought of something.
Soon the woman came. After washing and dressing herself, she revealed a stunningly beautiful face. Although she was not wearing any makeup, she had a unique charm.
"My humble daughter Lingli greets the master."
"Lingli, that's a good name. From today on, if you follow me, you have to change your name. How about calling yourself Hongmei?"
"Thank you for the name, master. Hongmei will be loyal to you. If I disobey you, I will not have a good death." After saying this, Hongmei kowtowed three times.
"Get up, you can live in Tongrentang first and take care of your health. I'm still thinking about what to do in the future. I'll make arrangements once I've figured it out."
Yun Yuxi called the shopkeeper over and gave him some instructions, then hurried away towards the Sihai Restaurant.
Yun Yuxi quickly checked the bill and didn't expect to earn so much money. In just three months, after deducting various expenses, she actually made a profit of 36,730 taels of silver. This surprised Yun Yuxi.
"Boss, I'll give everyone an extra month's salary. Thank you for your hard work," Yun Yuxi said with a smile on her face and joy in her heart.
Everyone applauded happily, and the shopkeeper became more determined to manage the Sihai Restaurant well.
Not long after, Yun Jinxi's people brought a silver note of 100,000 taels, intending to ask the owner of Sihai Restaurant to pass it on to Yun Yuxi. Who knew that Yun Yuxi was there.
