The Concubine Strikes Back: The Marquis Insists on Me to Be His Wife

"Sister, please be kind and help me this time! In the next life, I will work like a slave to repay your kindness."

"Sister, please get up quickly. What are you doing? I am here to help you. Why should sisters be so distant? I will do whatever you say. Come on, sit down and talk. I believe you have a plan, right? Tell me."

"I hope you can bear the pain and give me some money. I heard that you managed a shop in another place a few years ago. I wonder if you can choose a shop far away and give it to me? If you can, can you help me change my name? That way, no one can find me. Do you think this is a good idea?"

Su Wanyu thought about it and realized that there were shops farther away, but she felt a little reluctant to give it to her.

"Sister, why don't I give you some money to live on? But there are too many shops outside, and I don't know where to arrange for you to go?"

"The further away the better."

"Sister, are you really so cruel? We sisters won't be able to see each other again in the future!"

"Sister, please stop laughing at me. I am just an ordinary person. I want to live an ordinary life. I am not happy in this mansion. Sister, you also hope that I can have my own happiness, right?"

"But you are a woman, it's not safe for you to be alone outside. And you have slept with the Marquis, which man would marry you again?"

"Sister, if I don't meet the right person, I would rather stay single for life. I was forced to sleep with the Marquis. As a concubine, what right do I have to not serve the Marquis? How could I not know that the Marquis and sister are in love with each other? The Marquis is only with me for your sake. Sister, whether it's life or death, let me go out and try my luck!"

"Okay, since you have made up your mind, come here with me."

Su Wanyu pulled Su Qing inside.

"Sister, sit here. I'll go get something."

After listening to Su Wanyu's words, Su Qing sat down.

Su Wanyu took out a land deed and five silver notes worth one hundred taels from the box.

"Sister, I have managed the mansion and supplemented my dowry. These banknotes are all my belongings. I will give them to you. I am still worried when I think of you being alone outside!"

Su Qing took it and looked at it. Oh my God, they gave so much? This is five hundred taels? But I have to ask about the place on the deed. I can't find the key!

"Thank you so much, sister. I wonder where you are going to send me?"

"I can't bear to see you go away, but there's a shop in a distant village that's making a lot of money. What should I do, sister?"

"I will have to live on my own after leaving the mansion. If I were a man, it would be better, but I am a woman, so I'd better have more money! Thank you for your concern, I just want to go far away! But I'd like to trouble you to buy me a carriage. I really can't ask for anything more, so I'll just listen to you! I believe you will arrange everything."

"So when does your sister want to leave?"

"Of course, the sooner the better. Sister, you know that I don't want to stay in the Marquis' Mansion, and of course I don't want to sleep in the same bed with the Marquis. I'll have to trouble you to try your best to keep the Marquis. Before I leave, I'd better pretend to be sick. Sister, please see me off!"

"Sister, you have caught a cold, so you must rest well. Leave the task of serving the Marquis to me, and you can rest assured."
