Thinking about the family she might marry in the future, Shen Qingyu sighed slightly. Although her appearance was not as good as others, she still had the status.

Just as she used this identity to control Bai Ying, Shen Chuanhe, Aunt Liu, Shen Xitong and others, this identity also bound her tightly.

She wanted to marry someone she loved, but it was impossible.

Not to mention that she doesn't have any romantic thoughts at the moment, even if she does, the Shen family will not let her do so.

Whether you marry a noble man in the future or become his wife or concubine, your life will just be a move from one high-walled house to another.

As a mistress, perhaps I will end up living a worse life than Bai Ying.

"Let's go back."

Thinking of the future that he had no interest in at all, Shen Qingyu's heart was filled with dejection. Never mind, his life had changed since the moment he traveled through this book, his goals and life pursuits had all changed.

When they arrived at the villa, Manager Li, who had just greeted Shen Qingyu at the foot of the mountain, was already waiting at the gate of the villa, as if all his previous arrogance and rudeness had disappeared.

"Second Miss, this is the account book for the batch of tea seedlings from four years ago. Please take a look."

The new tea that was tribute to the royal family was about to be picked after the beginning of next spring, but now it has suddenly gone bad. Manager Li also knew the seriousness of the matter, so when he learned that the Shen family had sent someone, he hurried over in a hurry.

If something happens to the tea seedlings and Master Shen really investigates the matter, none of the tea shop managers will be able to escape and will all be held responsible. However, if they leave the Shen family, it will be difficult for them to find such a good job as the Shen family again.

Shen Qingyu glanced at Xiangyu with the corner of her eyes. Xiangyu immediately stepped forward and took the account book from Manager Li. She smiled and said, "Second Miss has been tired today. It's time to rest. If Manager Li has anything to say, let's talk about it tomorrow."

"I'll take my leave, little one."

Manager Li was somewhat puzzled. The tribute of new tea to the imperial court was the top priority of the mansion right now. However, the Second Miss looked indifferent and did not seem to take the matter to heart at all. Was it that the Second Miss was unreliable, or had Mr. Shen already come up with a plan to deal with the matter?

Even though he was confused, Manager Li still bowed and left. After all, the Second Young Lady had already kicked everyone out, so there was no reason for him to stay.

After Manager Li left, Shen Qingyu said, "Xiangyu, give me the account book, and you all can leave."

Compared with the Shen family's luxurious house, this villa on Yuntai is indeed much simpler.

It is called a villa, but it has only a few houses and a small yard. No wonder Shen Chuanhe never wants to stay here. For someone like him who is used to a luxurious life and is so concerned about his reputation, it is natural that he would refuse to stay in such a simple place.

Shen Qingyu sat down at the desk, and threw the account book that Manager Li brought to the ground.

What's the point of looking at the account book? The new tea seedlings have died. Even if she flips through all the account books, she can't bring those tea seedlings back to life.

Life in the mountains was hard, and the meals cooked in the kitchen could not compare to the exquisite food in the mansion, which had all kinds of delicacies from land and sea. Perhaps it was because they knew that the second young lady of the mansion was coming that things improved a little.

Bamboo shoots and ham soup, stir-fried bamboo shoots, and bamboo shoots and shrimps...

Bamboo shoots are indispensable in every dish.

Shen Qingyu felt a bit of a headache. Even though there were many bamboos on Mount Yuntai and bamboo shoots were everywhere, it was impossible for bamboo shoots to be included in every dish. Is now a good time for growing bamboo shoots?

And he said he was planning to use this method to make her go back to the Shen Mansion in disgrace?

Shen Qingyu had a poor appetite, so he had dinner taken away.

At this moment, the half-closed door suddenly opened a crack.

Shen Qingyu frowned. Who was so bold? Didn’t she already give orders not to disturb her?

When I looked up, I saw a small figure wandering outside, and he was afraid to come in.

Shen Qingyu walked over quietly, and immediately grabbed the little figure when he stepped over the threshold.

"Let me go!"

It was a boy about eight or nine years old, wearing a short coarse cloth shirt. Although he was small, he was very agile. She took a lot of effort to catch him.

"Heh, you call yourself a young master in front of me, kid..."

The moment Shen Qingyu saw the child's face, his voice stopped abruptly and his breathing stopped instantly.

Hong Er.

Why does this child look so much like Shen Youhong?

Shen Qingyu touched the child's face in disbelief. He had delicate features, but he was much healthier than Shen Youhong, and as strong as a calf.

Perhaps Shen Youhong's illness touched her. Suddenly seeing Shen Youhong in such good health made Shen Qingyu a little dazed. She suddenly hugged him tightly, "Hong'er!"

The child was so scared that he yelled, "Hey! Grandpa said that men and women should not touch each other, you are not allowed to touch me, and you still did it!"

"Also, my name is Jiang Yun!"

What Hong'er? It's so confusing.

Jiang Yun saw Shen Qingyu hugging him tightly, not at all minding that his dirty clothes would dirty her gorgeous dress, and felt very strange. The second young lady in this mansion was so strange. She was not much older than her, but she called him a child.

But why is there a soft and warm light in her eyes...

It seems like a feeling that belongs to my mother.

Jiang Yun frowned, and said in a slightly unfriendly tone, "I heard that the second young lady of the mansion has arrived, so I came to see you. I don't think you look that good. Aren't the daughters of the noble families in Jinling Mansion all said to be famous ladies, gentle and virtuous?"

His voice trailed off, the last part barely a mumble in his mouth.

Shen Qingyu was a little amused and confused. She didn't know where he heard this nonsense from and why he came here to evaluate her.

"If you say that again, do you believe I will have someone tie you up and give you a severe beating?"

Shen Qingyu naturally knew that he was average looking and plain, but it was a bit embarrassing to be evaluated like this by such a straightforward child.

This kid is really mean, just like Xiao Xiaoqi. You can't get ivory out of a dog's mouth.

"I'm not afraid," Jiang Yun was agile and was not restrained by Shen Qingyu at all. He broke free in an instant, "Come and catch me, ugly woman."

I just said she was not that good, and now she has become an ugly woman.

Shen Qingyu was so angry that she laughed, "Jiang Yun, right? I will definitely teach you a lesson today!"

"Eh? I can't catch it."

Jiang Yun made a face at Shen Qingyu and left.

Shen Qingyu looked at his face which looked exactly like Shen Youhong, and felt a little sad in her heart. If Shen Youhong, who grew up in the Shen family mansion, could have such a healthy body, he would not have been at the mercy of others now.
