The empress called her sister, and the goddess was willing to enter the mortal world
Chapter 18 God Saves Those Who Save Themselves
The noise outside the door paused when she came out. She walked towards the crowd and looked at the madam: "What happened, madam? Why is it so noisy outside?"
The madam wiped the sweat off her head and said, "Just now, that Mr. Jia came again. I persuaded him to go back after much persuasion, but I don't think he can hold out for long. You know he has always admired you and Huan'er. Now that he can't see you, I'm afraid something might happen."
"Don't worry too much, madam. Worrying is useless. You will have to face it sooner or later." Xiaoyu counselled the madam.
The other party hesitated and said, "Why don't you just accept Master Jia? He has been in love with you two for many years, and his family is a royal merchant, so it won't be too difficult for you to marry him."
Xiaoyu shook her head and smiled gently.
"Master Jia brought a lot of people here, saying that he wanted to take Huan'er and Xiaoyu away by force." The servant ran over hurriedly and said.
The other party came prepared, and Xiaoyu and Huaner had no way to refuse, so they were taken away by force.
In the upstairs wing room, Bei Chenyue saw everything through the gap and asked in confusion: "Goddess, won't you save them?"
Zi You said lazily with his eyes closed: "There are so many people in the world like duckweed. Those who save themselves will be saved by others, and those who don't save themselves will not be saved by anyone."
In the extravagant Jia Mansion, Master Jia smiled happily: "I have admired you for many years. Now that I am old, my family wants to find a wife for me. I don't have time to wait. I will redeem you later. You can live here with peace of mind in the future."
She looked at Master Jia with a smile and said, "Although I am a prostitute, the husband I want must be someone who understands me and is understood by me, who loves me and whom I love. If it is not a two-way relationship, I will never compromise." There was a firm determination in her words.
Master Jia looked at the other person's mighty and unyielding appearance and smiled: "Besides your appearance, I like your stubbornness more. I don't like to admire flowers from afar, I prefer to be the one who picks them."
Then he looked at Huan'er and said, "You know you have no chance of winning under the power of the strong. Whether you are willing to be a dodder that depends on me or a puppet that is tamed, the treatment between the two is very different."
Huan'er's face was full of tears. She knew she had no choice. She couldn't afford the consequences of running away. She didn't want to live her life like this. She also yearned for the sky outside.
Seeing Master Jia waiting for her answer with a determined look on his face, she cried and agreed in agony.
Seeing this, Master Jia's smile deepened. After having her taken away, he turned around and stared at Xiao Yu: "A man who knows the current situation is a hero. My family background and talent are not inferior to others. How many people in this world can meet your conditions for choosing a husband?"
"This flower has thorns. Unless it is absolutely necessary, I don't want to destroy it. Since the ending is the same, why not choose a beautiful beginning!"
He really couldn't bear to hurt her, but he was also reluctant to let her go. He had only met one woman as gentle and angular as her, and he cherished her very much.
The possessiveness in the other's eyes was naked and unrestrained. Xiaoyu knew that she had no chance of winning if she used force. She lowered her eyes and spoke in a gentle and kind tone: "Master Jia is a towering tree. After all, delicate flowers need to rely on something to survive."
Hearing this, Master Jia was stunned for a moment, and then a strange light burst out of his eyes. He listened to the other party saying: "I have lived in a brothel for many years. It is everything to me. Can you let me go and say goodbye to the past in person?"
Regardless of whether she really wanted to say goodbye or had other ideas, he was sure that she could not escape. He thought for a moment and said confidently, "Miss Xiaoyu, just think it through. It is not safe to go alone. This young master and the servants will escort you."
Seeing the other party smile and nod, Master Jia felt that he had never been in such a good mood.
When someone asked Huan'er whether she wanted to go back, she refused and Master Jia did not force her.
When the madam saw Master Jia coming back with his servants and Xiaoyu, she understood everything and put on her usual fake smile: "Master Jia, why is Xiaoyu the only one back? Where is my Huan'er?"
"Huan'er doesn't want to come back. They have decided to be my people. This is the money to redeem them. Thank you, madam, for taking such good care of them."
A servant handed the banknotes to the madam, who did not count them. Instead, she smiled and said, "It is their blessing to be favored by Master Jia. Please treat them well."
Turning around, she looked at Xiaoyu and said, "Now that you have made your choice, don't look back." The madam put her hand on Xiaoyu's head and stared at her for a long time, "Go."
Xiaoyu nodded to everyone and went upstairs.
"Goddess, she's coming towards our room."
A faint "hmm" was heard, which was a response to Beichen Yue who was watching the show.
Just as Xiaoyu was about to knock on the door, she saw Beichen Yue open the door and welcome her in.
She went straight to the point and said, "Ms. Hai! I know you are of noble status. May I ask if you have enough power to fight against the imperial merchants?" There was an unconcealable heaviness on her face.
Ziyou didn't look at her: "You want me to save you."
"Yes."
"If you have more power than him, I hope you can help him. If not, just treat this laughter as a farewell to you."
Zi You smiled faintly: "Why should I save you?"
Why did he save her? Was it a favor of a bowl of noodles? Or did he let her sleep well, so she thought he could save her? Or did she think he could hear the hidden meaning in her words and was a close friend?
Xiaoyu herself didn’t know why she asked her for help, she remained silent.
Her heart was like a dry desert, full of desolation. She said slowly: "I am willing to give my life for Miss Hai. You once said that accepting it calmly is a compromise with one's own incompetence. I want to find a way to survive. You are my last chance of survival."
She knelt on the ground and said firmly.
The servant outside the door came over and whispered through the door: "Miss Xiaoyu, my master is calling you back."
"I know, I'll come right away."
She raised her head, and her soft voice came out again, but with a relieved firmness: "Take care, Miss Hai, goodbye."
Seeing the courtesan leaving, Beichen Yue asked, "Goddess, where are we going to watch the show next?"
"You can't look anymore. If you look any further, the person will be gone." He stood up and walked downstairs.
"You knocked on my door, and now you want to leave like this?" Ziyou approached leisurely.
Master Jia turned around and looked at her. What a beauty! But he was not stupid either. The temperament of the other party was not something an ordinary lady could have.
He clasped his fists respectfully and asked, "What advice do you have, young lady?"
Ziyou pointed at Xiaoyu: "She! She won't go with you."
Everyone was slightly stunned. Some of the sisters who were on good terms with each other were secretly glad for this turn of events, while others were watching the confrontation with gritted teeth.
Master Jia introduced himself directly: "My family has been a royal merchant for generations, so it is better for you not to interfere in some matters, young lady."
Zi You was too lazy to waste words and threw a token at him. Master Jia looked at the token in his hand, his expression froze for a few seconds, and it took him a while to recover. He immediately knelt down and said, "I am a humble person, and I am honored to meet you, Princess."
