121 Shh!
Yuan Niang gritted her teeth and muttered.
She could ignore Gao Xuwei’s heartlessness, but she really couldn’t tolerate him making moves on the few people close to her time and time again!
Previously, it was Ah Fei, and now it was Ah Yu! There were so many people around him, and there had never been a lack of women who were willing to serve him. But why did he only harass those around her?!
“I can’t go back anymore!” Yuan Niang thought of the arrangements Lin Suisui had told her previously. She looked up at Lin Suisui with determination. “Madam Liu, I’ve already thought about it!
Even if I continued to stay by such a heartless man’s side, I won’t have any way out.
And An’er!
As a woman, wouldn’t her father decide everything when she grew up?!
I heard that there are often nobles in the capital who use their daughters as tools to pave the way for their family’s future!
Other people are capable of doing such a thing, so Gao Xuwei is even more so! He might even be more ruthless.
I don’t want the daughter I risked my life to give birth to to to end up like that, so I have to leave with her.”
“I’ll tell Mr. Pei.” Lin Suisui nodded. Pei Qian was the one handling this matter. Therefore, she didn’t want to interfere too much. She would let Pei Qian arrange it.
“What do I need to do?!” The woman was overjoyed, but she knew very well that if she wanted others to help, she definitely had to contribute as well.
However, what did it matter? As long as she could fulfill her wish, at least An’er could grow up safely. So what if she risked her life?!
“Madam Liu, I-I want to ask you to help me. If, if I really have no choice, can you help An’er find a good family?!
I don’t have high expectations for her. I just want her to live a peaceful life!”
As the woman spoke, she reached under the pillow and took out a small package wrapped in a handkerchief. She raised it with trembling hands and handed it to Lin Suisui. “There’s some of my jewelry here. If I sell it, it’ll be worth some money.
“There’s also some banknotes. I counted them. They’re enough to raise An’er until she becomes an adult. Can you help me?!”
Yuan Niang was worried that if she didn’t say it this time, there might not be such an opportunity next time.
She wasn’t afraid of anything happening to herself now, but An’er…
If she couldn’t find a reliable person to entrust her to, she wouldn’t be able to rest assured even if she died.
“You don’t have to worry. Since Mr. Pei said that he wanted to send you two away safely, your safety will definitely be guaranteed. You should keep this for yourself. After you leave in the future, you and An’er still have to live on this.
“Also, don’t let your imagination run wild for the next two days. Try your best to recuperate. If you have to leave, your body can’t drag you down.”
Lin Suisui didn’t reach out to take the things in the woman’s hand. She knew very well that in Yuan Niang’s current situation, this was her last bit of hope.
If she really took over now, Yuan Niang might not have the will to live on…
“I know how to embroider and cook. My mother is a great cook. She’s the best at our eatery. If there’s really a chance to leave, I’ll pawn these things and buy a shop. This way, I can watch An’er grow up and even save some dowry for her!”
Speaking of the future, Yuan Niang clearly thought of things further.
This also meant that when she said that she wanted to leave, it wasn’t an impulse, but an idea that she had since long ago. Now that there was a possibility of implementing it, her heart almost soared.
Lin Suisui chatted with Yuan Niang for a while longer before getting up to leave.
When she came out, she saw that Lu Ze was already guarding the tent. She couldn’t help but raise her eyebrows slightly. Although she didn’t say anything, Lu Ze saw the confusion in her eyes.
“I’m fine. It was just a small scratch.” Lu Ze didn’t hide the disgust in his eyes at all. Even a mere servant could deal with a small injury like that. Why did Gao Xuwei have to make such a big fuss?!
It was obvious that Gao Xuwei had ulterior motives!
“Didn’t we say that we would enter the mountain today? It looks like it’s still early. Let’s go back and prepare. Let’s go!” Lin Suisui could tell that Lu Ze wasn’t in a good mood. She didn’t want him to continue thinking about Gao Xuwei, so she raised her hand and gently tugged at his sleeve as she suggested with a smile.
Lu Ze looked up at the sky and didn’t refuse. Then, he was pulled away by Lin Suisui.
The two of them didn’t have much to prepare when they returned. Little White was no longer the size it used to be. Everyone already knew about Little White, so she simply let it run on the ground.
This was the first time the little fellow had walked through the snow since it was born. At first, it was fine, but when they walked further into the deserted forest, the snow immediately covered most of Little White’s entire body. Seeing the little fellow sink into the snow and reveal a puzzled expression, Lin Suisui couldn’t help but laugh.
Lu Ze helplessly reached out behind Lin Suisui and protected her, who was laughing uncontrollably in front of him. He was afraid that she would fall down and roll into a pile with Little White…
However, at this moment, his worries were useless. Perhaps because he was unhappy about being mocked, Little White turned around and pounced on Lin Suisui…
Lin Suisui was already swaying on her feet. After Little White pounced on her, she immediately lost her balance and rolled into the snow nest with Little White, who pounced over. Little White’s tail swept up snow fog and smashed towards Lin Suisui’s head…
Lin Suisui giggled happily, but her counterattack was much stronger. She formed a huge snowball and covered Little White’s head.
Lu Ze, who was watching from the side, was angry and amused. He reached out to pull Lin Suisui up first, but Little White clung to Lin Suisui’s legs and was unwilling to let go. Under this pull, he was unable to defend himself against the little girl’s sneak attack and was pulled into the snow nest. His face was covered in snow…
“Shh!” Lin Suisui was enjoying herself, but Lu Ze suddenly reached out and pressed her body against the snow. She turned around in confusion and saw Lu Ze raise his hand to shush her.
She immediately understood and didn’t dare to move. However, Little White didn’t intend to lie down obediently. It quickly jumped out of the snow nest and rushed into the depths of the forest not far away…
