I was a housekeeper in ancient times

Before reaching Guanyu Pavilion, one could hear from afar the extremely sad cries of Zhang's mother and son and Yinxiang. Just by listening to their cries, one could tell how sad they were.

When they heard the crying, their eyes turned red. A healthy person was gone just like that.

When they went inside, Zhang's mother was half-lying on Aunt Lian's body, crying her heart out, and Sister Cuihong and others couldn't persuade her to stop.

"Aunt, stop crying, the lady is here." said Sister Cuihong.

"Husband, Madam?" Zhang's mother wiped her tears quickly, but still couldn't hide her grief.

Yu Muyan took a few steps forward, knelt down in front of Zhang's mother, and said with a sob: "It was me who harmed Aunt Lian, and I feel even more sorry for you, old lady." Then she kowtowed.

Zhang's mother hurriedly helped him up, "Madam, you are going to shorten my life. How can I accept such a great gift from you?"

"Aunt, I am sorry to you and Aunt Lian..."

"Yinxiang told me that it was Lian'er who wanted to protect you, Madam. Our family owes you too much, and we have no way to repay you. I can understand why she did this. It is her blessing to be able to protect you, Madam."

This made Yu Muyan feel even more upset, and she hugged Zhang's mother and cried bitterly.

In this situation, Lin Weiqiao was not in a good position to persuade them.

After a long while, Yu Muyan wiped her tears and said to Zhang's mother, "Let me take the place of Aunt Lian to honor you. As for Qing Jie'er, if you agree, give her to me as my daughter, just like Wan Jie'er and the others. If I treat her badly, I will be struck by lightning."

Zhang's mother said hurriedly, "Pah, pah, pah, Madam, please don't say such unlucky words. Madam can give Qingjie a bite to eat and keep her by your side. This is her blessing. How can she be Madam's daughter?"

"Aunt, Aunt Lian lost her life for me. If I can't do something for her, how can I be worthy of her spirit in heaven? Qingjie'er is still young and can't live without her mother. I will raise Qingjie'er myself in the future. Whatever Wanjie'er and the others have, Qingjie will never be left without."

"I have no problem with what you said, Madam. I don't know how much good fortune our family must have accumulated in our past lives to have met a living Bodhisattva like you."

In fact, since Qing Jie'er was born, Zhang's mother had vaguely guessed Qing Jie'er's background. Later, she was afraid of being discovered, so she asked Aunt Lian.

This question almost scared her to death. After learning that Yu Muyan had known about it for a long time and helped to conceal it, she was extremely grateful to Yu Muyan.

Not to mention that Qing Jie'er is Chai Sheng's flesh and blood, even if Qing Jie'er is really the flesh and blood of the Lu family, as long as Yu Muyan doesn't want to, he doesn't have to be responsible for Qing Jie'er. What's more, Qing Jie'er has no relationship with Yu Muyan at all.

So whether it was that when Yu Muyan left the Bo Mansion, she wanted to take their family with her, or now she wanted to recognize Jie'er as her daughter, it was all done out of kindness by Yu Muyan.

If she wanted to make up for her family, Yu Muyan could just use money to get rid of her, and she wouldn't mind. But Yu Muyan proposed to raise Qing Jie'er herself, so Qing Jie'er would not be a bastard, nor a wild child without a mother, and she would not have to worry about anything in her life.

Looking at Aunt Lian's body, Yu Muyan sighed and gently stroked Aunt Lian's cold hand, "Aunt Lian, don't worry, I won't let you die in vain. Sister Qing, I will definitely raise you to adulthood and will never let you down."

Lin Weiqiao also sighed, and cursed Lu Yuxuan in her heart. At the same time, she thought about how many children Yu Muyan had. Fortunately, she had a big family, otherwise she really couldn't raise them all.

In Qianchun Alley.

After knowing that Yu Muyan was not dead and it was Aunt Lian who died, Lu Yuxuan was so angry that he almost fainted. What was going on?

After repeated failures, being hunted by the government, Chu Qing Guan being investigated, and Mother Liang being imprisoned, his situation became increasingly difficult and he could be discovered at any time.

Now he can do nothing but hide all day long, afraid to see the light of day.

The King of Jingcheng gradually lost his patience with him. Fearing that he would be dragged down by him, he did not provide him with any support and left him to fend for himself.

This time, he had to find a servant from his old mansion to carry out the assassination in the mansion.

He had placed high hopes on this operation, hoping that it would be successful so that he could make a comeback. He didn't expect that he couldn't kill Yu Muyan even in this way!

"It seems that I have to do it myself this time. If I fail, I will die!" A hint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes.

"Wouldn't it be easy for you to be discovered if you go in person?" Xiao Qianluo said worriedly, "Why don't we leave the capital first?"

"How can I leave? I failed to leave last time. Now the whole city is searching for me. How can I leave? The King of Jingcheng won't care about me, let alone help me leave."

"Don't you still have family? Let them think of a way. There is always a way out. There are so many roads in the world. There must be one that is suitable for you, right?"

Xiao Qianluo was also tired of living in fear. She couldn't sleep peacefully at night, for fear that government officials would break in and arrest her at any time.

It was really hard to live in fear every day. She used to worry that her identity would be discovered, and now she had to worry about Lu Yuxuan being discovered.

No matter whether it is her or Lu Yuxuan, as long as one of them is discovered, they will be finished.

Seeing her tired face and the worry in her eyes, Lu Yuxuan knew that she was worried about him, and his heart softened. "Luo'er, I'm sorry for making you suffer."

He has never been an impulsive person, and this time, he almost lost control of himself. He knew very well that if he took action himself, even if he succeeded, there would be great risks.

But if he didn't kill Yu Muyan, he couldn't get rid of the hatred in his heart. If he took this risk, he would be sorry for Xiao Qianluo. It would be fine if he couldn't give her a stable home, but he made her suffer like this.

After thinking it over again and again, he still felt that he could not ruin his life and future because of Yu Muyan. He had plenty of time to deal with Yu Muyan.

He said gently, "Okay, I'll listen to you this time. I'll write back and ask them to find a way to help us leave. As long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood."

Xiao Qianluo couldn't help but be deeply moved. "Lu Lang, thank you for understanding me. You are the only one I can rely on. I am really afraid that something might happen to you. If something happens to you, I won't live alone."

"Silly girl, what nonsense are you talking about? How could anything happen to me?"

"I just can't help but think too much."

When Lu Yuxuan planned to fake his death, he wanted to use it to help King Jingcheng with his plan, gain merit, and then use the merit to exchange for a legitimate and respectable identity for Xiao Qianluo.

Who would have thought that he failed to give Xiao Qianluo a formal identity, but instead caused Xiao Qianluo and himself to suffer. This made him feel even more guilty towards others, and he secretly swore in his heart that he must get rid of Yu Muyan and take back everything that originally belonged to him!
