I Gave Birth to a Cub without Telling the Head Assistant - Chapter 9.3

Chapter 9.3

If the chief minister complimented Liu Chengji, he would work very hard as the leader of Dayu County. In three years, if he tried to move back to Beijing, he would not be allowed to.

Then Liu Chengji would only realise that he had become an outcast.

Yunfeng: “Young master, did you hear that Liu Chengji went to the Ruan family yesterday to cancel the marriage contract, but the Ruan sisters stripped him and threw him out for everyone to see? Now everyone in Yangzhou City is making fun of him. Even the kids on the street are singing songs about him. Champion, remove your clothes and show your body…”

Suddenly, Yunfeng realised that he shouldn’t sing a bad song in front of the chief minister of the country. He stayed quiet and obediently lowered his head.

Li Zhulin rarely pointed fingers at him, but this time there was a slight sign of curiosity in his eyes.

‘Very good. I think the young woman used my advice and then called off the engagement. She is a very interesting person. If she is not smart, she could not run Tianxialou well.’

Even though the Qizhenyuan’s price was high at 100 taels per night, everything inside was very nice and well-made.

Also, the beautiful landscape with Jiangnan features in front of him was attractive and made people feel very relaxed and comfortable.

It was not as fancy as the palace, but it was still very elegant.

‘No wonder people like Mr. Zhou Ge, who are distraught, are willing to come to Tianxialou for a month every year. This April in Yangzhou is indeed a paradise on earth.’

Li Zhulin stood up and walked around, stopping in the courtyard at each scene. He couldn’t resist grabbing and pulling off the willow leaves hanging from the wall. His fingertips were stained with dew, and he subconsciously touched inside his sleeves, preparing to use the brocade handkerchief he carried with him. wipe……

Unexpectedly, it came to nothing…

Yes, that brocade handkerchief was given to the exquisite lady to wipe away her tears on that day of heavy rain.

“Where did the young master’s fancy handkerchief fall? I’ll go and find it,” said Yunfeng, noticing something odd. “Lady told me to look after the young master’s things before I left. Isn’t it true that Mr. Wu from Yongshun Earl’s Mansion faced trouble because he lost his personal belongings? The personal brocade handkerchief was picked up by a woman with ulterior motives, and the woman spread the news that Mr. Wu was having an affair with her. Although she was not able to be carried into the Earl’s Mansion as a concubine, a lot of money was extorted from the Earl’s Mansion and lost. What a big man! This is the case in the Earl’s Mansion, let alone a family like ours.”

[Tl: In ancient China, people just couldn’t give their personal belongings to others.]

Li Zhulin knew that he shouldn’t give away personal things so easily, but that day, he was being very kind and caring.

Even though she looked very elegant, she didn’t seem like a careless person. And from her personality, it didn’t seem like she wanted to be with someone just like that.

Li Zhulin was very careful and always tried to solve problems early. ‘So, we need to get this handkerchief back.’

******

The maid quickly told Ruan Longling that important guests from Qizhenyuan had something important to discuss. Then she brought Li Zhulin inside right away.

Li Zhulin picked up his robe and walked into the meeting room. He noticed a silk screen with a feather design made of gold and jade. The woman’s slim and graceful body was seen behind the see-through screen. It was very delightful.

It was disappointing that the woman lost her grace as soon as she started talking.

The woman sounded very happy and cheerful, and she didn’t seem sad at all, even though she had felt sad earlier that day in Taowu.

“Master Wang, I must have come to pay you back the money today, right?”

Have a nice day!
