Episode 18: Luo Qinglian and Mu Haiyao temporarily live in peace
The two nursing homes in the southern suburbs were probably ordered by Mu Haiyao and deliberately arranged Luo Qinglian in a very dilapidated house. Dongli defended Luo Qinglian, but Luo Qinglian didn’t want any more trouble. She was just an abandoned woman, and she had no grievances to speak of. Luo Qinglian saw the broken ring on the ground. It turned out that Dongli couldn’t bear it and secretly picked it up. The condition of the house was very poor.
Dongli and Li Tang took out their cotton-padded clothes to use as quilts for Luo Qinglian. Luo Qinglian told them that there was no distinction between master and servant now and returned the clothes to Li Tang. As for Dongli, he just felt aggrieved and squeezed with her. It’s crowded. Although it is cold here, what can warm Luo Qinglian’s heart is the loyalty of Li Tang and Dong Li.
Mu Haiyao knew that Luo Qinglian was also here, so he specially found two nurses, Mao Da and Mao Er, and gave each of them two hundred and fifty taels of silver. He hoped that the two Mao brothers could do one thing for him, which was to torture Luo Qinglian.
Yuan Baili died, and the prince was helpless, so it was a good time for the Fourth Young Master to take advantage of the victory and pursue the attack. However, Lu Beiyi believed that the Fourth Young Master was thoughtful and steady, and he would not take action easily if he was not completely sure. When the Fourth Young Master saw Lu Beiyi, he stopped him, hoping that he could help him. When the matter was accomplished, he would not only remove Lu Beiyi’s low status, but also marry Luo Qinglian to him.
Mao Da Mao Er deliberately asked Luo Qinglian and the others to eat the rotten rice. Luo Qinglian actually ate it one bite at a time. Li Tang and Dong Li also picked up their bowls and started eating. Luo Qinglian taught Li Tang and Dong Li that only when they are full can they have strength and return all the suffering they have suffered to those who harmed them. When Mu Haiyao heard the news, she couldn’t understand why Luo Qinglian had become a resigned person.
Lu Beiyi came to Luo Qinglian in the evening and wanted to take her away and never return to Quliang. However, Luo Qinglian still had to wait for news about Mrs. Rou and Mrs. Rong. She had to know the truth about the death of her child. She was the one who caused Lu Beiyi to suffer a low status before, but now she will not delay Lu Beiyi anymore.
Luo Qinglian took the money to find Mao Da Mao Er. Although it was far less than Mu Haiyao, she wanted to be their new master. If they didn’t accept the money, how much money could she get for someone who had died once? It is also a good thing to be buried with two people. When Mao Da Mao Er saw Luo Qinglian taking out the knife, he was frightened. He accepted the money and toasted Luo Qinglian.
From then on, Luo Qinglian lived happily in the other courtyard. Not only could she and Mu Haiyao coexist peacefully, but she could also hear stories told by the Mao brothers every day. She and Dongli listened very happily. Two years later, Nan Ruzhen was promoted to the side wife. Luo Qinglian knew that the day when the prince was about to hunt was coming, so she discussed a move with Lu Beiyi and asked the prince to stop the prince.
However, from the perspective of the common people, because the hunt would set up obstacles along the way, The prince was originally very angry because it affected the farmers’ autumn harvest, but after hearing the prince’s reasons, he felt relieved. Unexpectedly, his prince finally had the common people in his heart. Thanks to He Lianxin standing by to help the prince, the prince decided to take the prince to hunt together this time. After Lu Beiyi got the news, he went to inform Luo Qinglian.
During the hunt, the Fourth Young Master won. The prince was very happy and rewarded him with a gun. The prince was jealous and later complained to He Lianxin about his father’s favoritism. At this time, Lu Beiyi brought in a gun, which was a tribute to the prince. It was originally given to He Lianxin. After taking a look, he unexpectedly fell in love with the crown prince and couldn’t put it down. He Lianxin signaled Lu Beiyi to cross the gun off the list of tributes.
