Poor little thing, he is sweet and soft after wearing it

Although Tian Jiao had never shown off his skills as a maid, he had altered and mended clothes for Gu Yuchen due to some minor accidents. Gu Yuchen probably saw from these things that he had the skills as a maid, so he asked him to embroider sachets.

The sachet was completed on the morning of the day when Gu Yuchen was going to take the imperial examination. Although he was reluctant to embroider it for Gu Yuchen at first, since he had agreed, he naturally had to do his best. Therefore, both the pattern and the needlework were selected by him, and the herbs inside were all prepared by him personally, which not only could make his mind clear, but also could avoid snakes, ants and mosquitoes.

Gu Yuchen received the sachet and put it in his arms with great care. He did not care that his parents were present, and in front of the crowded entrance of the Imperial Examination Hall, he hugged Tian Jiao tightly in his arms, wishing he could melt him into his bones and blood.

Tian Jiao was extremely panicked. This was the gate to the Imperial Examination Hall. Gu Yuchen's demeanor might mean he didn't want to take the exam anymore!

Besides, isn't he really afraid of pissing his parents off to death? Unfilial son!

Mr. Gu still had that calm expression, which was in line with his temperament and demeanor as a third-rank official. However, Mrs. Gu was not good enough at cultivating her temper, and her expression changed. Although she tried her best to suppress it, some of it still showed.

Gu Yuchen didn't want to piss his parents off to death. Although time seemed to be stretched infinitely, it was actually just a breath of time.

It was not until Gu Yuchen entered the Imperial Examination Hall that Tian Jiao followed Mr. and Mrs. Gu into the Gu family's carriage.

In the carriage, Madam Gu looked at Tian Jiao from beginning to end with a bad look in her eyes, and finally muttered:

"Little vixen!"

Tian Jiao felt embarrassed when he heard this. He was indeed handsome and everyone loved him, but there was no need to remind him like this.

Mr. Gu patted Mrs. Gu's hand to comfort her.

Mrs. Gu shut up reluctantly, but her glare remained as sharp as ever.

Thinking about what her son had entrusted her with, she felt unhappy about Tian Jiao.

Her son has grown up, but he still hasn't shown filial piety to her as a mother, but he is very considerate of his little lover!

It must be that the little vixen has been whispering too much in her son's ear!

Tian Jiao felt very uneasy along the way. He really didn't know what was wrong with Mrs. Gu and why she disliked him so much.

He hasn't done anything outrageous recently, has he?

After returning to the Gu family, Mr. Gu went to the yamen to work, and Mrs. Gu asked Tian Jiao to go back to the main courtyard with her, as she had something to tell them.

In the main courtyard, Mrs. Gu held a cup of tea and took sip after sip, but she didn't speak to Tian Jiao, leaving Tian Jiao standing below, at a loss.

As if her thirst had been quenched and her qi had been relieved, Mrs. Gu put down her teacup and began to speak:

"You have been serving in the Gu family for quite a while. If I remember correctly, you were twelve when you entered the Gu family. Now six years have passed, and you are eighteen."

Tian Jiao nodded and wanted to kneel down to answer, but Madam Gu called him up, "You are still serving the young master. Even if you have no merit, you have worked hard. You don't have to kneel down to answer. I am not meeting you now to set rules for you, but to tell you something."

Tian Jiao didn't know what Mrs. Gu was going to say, and he leaned his butt against the edge of the stool. He didn't dare to sit comfortably.

"Take this box. It's something the young master left for you. Take a look at it when you have time."

Tian Jiao returned to the yard where he and Gu Yuchen lived, holding the box in a daze. He didn't understand why Gu Yuchen suddenly came to his senses and let him go.

Mrs. Gu was somewhat unwilling and asked him if he had any desire to stay with Gu Yuchen?

What ideas could he have?

As long as he is an ordinary citizen, there is no possibility between him and Gu Yuchen.

He couldn't convince himself to have a relationship with someone of unequal status. Was the result of the inequality in status love or obedience?

Does Gu Yuchen, the arrogant young master, really love the real Tian Jiao?

As a servant, all he can show in front of his master is gentleness and obedience. As for other things, can he let his master know?

Although he is no longer anyone's slave and is an ordinary citizen, with the power of the Gu family, stepping on him to death is no different from stepping on an ant.

He is so blinded that he wants to have a good life and plunges into an unequal relationship.

He is young and handsome, and there are countless points about him that Gu Yuchen values, but he does not have the ability to settle down. People's emotions are consumed very quickly, and once they are sure of something, their emotions become the most unstable.

When he no longer has the capital of being young and beautiful, Gu Yu can still rely on his superior family background to obtain a young and beautiful body. What then is he?

Is it the white rice stuck on your clothes or the mosquito blood stuck on the wall?

He has nothing and can't even afford the cost of trial and error, so how can he talk about love with the young master?

Mrs. Gu doesn't need to look at him as if he is a heartless and ungrateful man. Feelings are the shortest-lived thing. Instead of believing in feelings, he might as well fight for himself.

Gu Yuchen was very generous to him. The box was filled with silver notes from Yuanhe Money House, a total of five thousand taels. Even if he arrived in Dai Viet, he could still go to Yuanhe Money House to withdraw money and would not be afraid of having no money to spend.

In addition to the silver bills, there were also house deeds and land deeds in the box, as well as a token made of pure gold and a letter.

The letter was naturally written to him by Gu Yuchen. Its purpose was to tell him how to use the token and also to tell him that the reason he let him go was because he was going to marry the princess. The third princess was possessive, and if he still stayed with Gu Yuchen, he would probably die at any time.

Tian Jiao said that Gu Yuchen had a conscience, and that the token was a group of secret guards hired by Gu Yuchen, a total of ten people, and he was allowed to take them all away to protect his safety and help him get information.

Moreover, with the token, one can withdraw money from Yuanhe Money House with no upper limit. Gu Yuchen has deposited a total of 100,000 taels in Yuanhe Money House. If he wants, he can take it all away.

Tian Jiao was more than just touched. He had already made up his mind that when Gu Yuchen died, he would erect a monument to commemorate his passing.

Gu Yuchen didn't say any sweet words, but only gentle and soft advice throughout the speech.

Tian Jiao is now a free man, so he did not delay and simply packed up all the belongings he had earned over the years and left the Gu family.

After leaving Gu's house, he felt that the sky was bluer, the grass was greener, and the people were more beautiful. The invisible shackles on his body were completely broken, and he was free.

The doorman told Mrs. Gu everything about Tian Jiao's departure. Mrs. Gu smashed the teacup, scolded Tian Jiao for being heartless, and then fell on the bed sobbing.

Her poor son had thrown his whole heart away. That little vixen Tian Jiao didn't even feel reluctant to leave the Gu family!
