Chapter 34
"It's okay. I don't even have a reputation anymore. Am I still worried about others laughing at me?"
Ling Yu slandered that if she wanted to be embarrassed, it would be embarrassing for Xiao Lintian, too, for making her princess so poor that she had to sell clothes!
As a prince, he is not afraid of embarrassment, so what is she afraid of?
"Mom, when I grow up, I will make a lot of money to buy you new clothes!"
The kitten caressed Ling Yu's hand with a waxy texture, comforting Ling Yu.
Ling Yu smiled and saw that Ling Xin was in trouble, so she said, "Go ahead! Believe me, after these few days, I will make your life better and better!"
Aunt Li didn't stop her anymore. She looked away when she saw Ling Yu was weak even when she spoke.
The princess's life is almost gone, why should she care about external possessions and reputation?
Aunt Li helped Ling Xin pick out some expensive clothes and packed them up before reluctantly letting Ling Xin take them out.
"Princess, you need to rest first. I'll go wash the kitchen. It's full of dust!"
Aunt Li walked away again tremblingly.
Ling Yu looked at her back distressedly. She was too weak to help.
I can only work hard for Grandma Li. When she gets better, she will be kind to her.
"Mom, you have a good rest! The kitten won't disturb you... Both grandma and mom are the kitten's favorite people! The kitten will be filial to you when it grows up!"
Mao Mao probably sensed Ling Yu's discomfort and touched Ling Yu's face considerately with her small hands.
"Well, the kitten is so filial!"
Ling Yu's eyes were sore and she closed them to prevent the kitten from seeing her tears.
The kitten was very weak and fell asleep without saying a few words.
Ling Yu couldn't sleep, so she closed her eyes and tried her best to recall what had happened before.
She had not been able to think carefully since time travel, so she took this opportunity to fully understand the Ling Yu of the past.
She had to figure out how to deal with Suzuran's vicious frame-up, lest she use the same excuse to frame her again!
She also had to find a way to repair the relationship between the old Marquis and Ling Yu.
Xiao Lintian hates Ling Yu so much that he may have murderous intentions towards her again. It is impossible for her to be husband and wife with such a man!
Sooner or later, she would make peace with Xiao Lintian. After the separation, she would be unfamiliar with the place in Western Qin, and would have to rely on the old Marquis to support her.
Thinking of the old Marquis, Ling Yu picked up the crane-shaped hairpin and played with it.
This hairpin looked ordinary, but she really couldn't see why it was so valuable!
But thinking of the way Xiao Lintian looked at the hairpin, Ling Yu always felt that the hairpin given to her by her mother must have value.
She looked carefully at the hairpin and saw that the beads in the crane's mouth were shaking. Ling Yu turned the beads curiously and heard a subtle click.
The hairpin actually split in the middle. Ling Yu saw a yellowed piece of paper inside, which was folded into a long strip and placed in the middle of the hairpin.
She took out a piece of paper. There were some very small words on it. It turned out to be a list?
She looked carefully and saw that the names on the list were all unfamiliar! There were two lines drawn in the top row.
Who are the people on this list? What kind of organization is this?
Ling Yu was thinking wildly. Her mother Lan Huijuan died at a young age. Is her death related to the list in the hairpin?
Ling Yu suddenly remembered the chronic poison in her body...
And before Lan Huijuan died, Ling Yu had seen her become so thin that she was skin and bones...
Could it be that Lan Huijuan died of poisoning instead of a normal death?
Thinking of what Aunt Li said about Lan Huijuan's death anniversary, since Ling Yu has taken over this body, her relatives must also help protect her!
It’s time to make arrangements to burn incense and paper money for Lan Huijuan!
Ling Yu didn't have a chance to find out the matter for a while. She couldn't figure it out, so she folded the list and stuffed it back into her hairpin, and would figure it out later!
Ling Yu was thinking wildly, unable to resist the weakness of her body, and fell asleep until she was woken up by Granny Li.
"Princess, please eat something before going to sleep!"
Aunt Li pushed her gently.
When Ling Yu woke up, she smelled the aroma of food and suddenly felt hungry.
"Old slave, help you sit up! Ling Xin sold her clothes for five taels of silver, which is enough to support us for a few days!"
While supporting Ling Yu, Grandma Li cursed in a low voice: "These are all profiteers! Such good clothes cost hundreds of taels when they were made, but only five taels were given when they were sold!"
"Why don't God send a thunderbolt to kill them?"
Ling Yu sat up, and Aunt Li stuffed a pillow behind her waist and brought the tray over.
A bowl of thick millet porridge and two plates of side dishes.
Although simple, for Ling Yu at this time, it was a delicacy in the world.
"Mommy, I'll do it myself! You wake up the kitten and let him eat some too!"
Ling Yu saw that the kitten was still sleeping soundly, so she took the tray and placed it on her lap.
Grandma Li nodded and went to wake up the kitten.
Ling Xin also brought the kitten's porridge. Ling Yu's sharp eyes saw a few more bruises on her face, and her face suddenly darkened.
"Ling Xin, what happened to you when you went out?"
Ling Xin hurriedly covered her face with her hands and said hesitantly: "No... nothing happened! I accidentally fell while walking!"
Ling Yu stared at her and said word by word: "If you feel that I am not capable of making decisions for you! I still say the same thing, you can leave!"
"If you want to stay, you can't hide anything from me!"
Ling Xin was so frightened by Ling Yu's words that she knelt on the ground.
"I dare not..." she said tremblingly.
Aunt Li quickly held down Ling Yu and said urgently: "Princess, don't blame her! It was the old slave who was afraid of making you angry again and didn't let her say anything!"
