After bandaging Jiang Chaosheng's wound, Jiang Jiang used the excuse of going to Bao'an Hall to buy medicinal herbs and planned to go out alone.

Originally, Jiang Chaosheng wanted to go with her, but Jiang Jiang persuaded him to go back, leaving him alone to reflect on his mistakes in the room!

Jiang Jiang was not familiar with the capital city. She asked the waiter at the inn and found out that Yunlai Inn was not too far from Bao'an Hall. However, after leaving the inn, Jiang Jiang did not go towards Bao'an Hall first, but went in the opposite direction.

This direction... leads to the Chu Mansion.

The waiter at the inn was a walking map of the capital, and Jiang Jiang had just casually asked about the location of the Chu Mansion.

Along the way, Jiang Jiang was secretly planning.

The villains in novels all hold grudges.

In this novel world, although the male and female protagonists are both born into noble families, they are both untainted by the world and are one in a million good people.

It’s hard to say about other noble children, especially the Meng family, each one is more vicious and has no bottom line than the other.

What if... the eldest brother is really hated by the Meng family, then it would be safer for the whole family to run away. Running away requires money, and going to a new place and starting over requires even more money.

Of course, nothing is absolute. If they are lucky this time, they won't be targeted by the powerful...

Jiang Jiang thought about her elder brother's personality again. If he didn't remember her this time, what about next time?

With my brother's personality, it would be really easy for something to get into trouble!

and so……

She must explore the route today, and wait in the alley behind the Chu Mansion tomorrow night to pick up bargains!

As long as you have money, you can always get twice the result with half the effort!

What if her elder brother is framed and imprisoned wrongly one day, she can still use money to help him smooth things over, right?

Jiang Chaosheng: o(╥﹏╥)o Can’t you just hope for something good from me?

**

As a century-old wealthy family, the Chu family's mansion is located on Ruyi Street, the most prosperous street in the eastern part of the capital. Almost all the residents on this street are from prominent families.

Every household was a wealthy and powerful one, with many servants and guards guarding the door. Ordinary people did not dare to pass directly in front of the door, and almost everyone took a detour.

Jiang Jiang saw the large golden signboard of "Chu Mansion" from afar.

So this is the Chu family. Jiang Jiang stared at the gate for a long time and almost subconsciously wanted to take a photo and check in as a souvenir o(╯□╰)o.

Of course, taking photos as souvenirs is impossible.

She could only sigh in her heart, this is the wealthy family, where the plot of the novel begins, and also the first battlefield map after the heroine traveled through time.

It's a pity that she, a passerby, is not qualified to go in and watch.

Jiang Jiang stood at the street corner for a while, looking for a direction, and went around to the back of the Chu Mansion. Because the Chu family's courtyard was really too large, and the streets and alleys behind it were also complicated, looking at the several alleys in front of her, Jiang Jiang was suddenly in trouble -

Which alley was the place where Chu Yunyue found Chen Jinting?

The novel didn’t describe how big the back of the Chu Mansion is, with so many alleys!

You really screwed me!

Jiang Jiang quietly recalled the plot of the novel in her mind, word by word, not missing a single punctuation mark.

Although Chu Yunyue is the eldest daughter of the Chu family, she is bullied in the family because she is stupid and foolish. Even the maids and old women dare to bully her.

and so……

The place where she lives is very remote and small.

Chu Yunyue often did not have enough to eat. An old servant of the Chu family felt sorry for her and would often secretly bring her food through the back door.

So when the silly and foolish Chu Yunyue was hungry, she would subconsciously go to the back door to look for food.

Jiang Jiang felt sorry for Chu Yunyue for a second, and then complained about this ridiculous plot for a second.

What were servants in this era? Their indentures were in the possession of their masters, and they could be sold at will or even beaten to death. How dare they bully the young ladies of their masters?

Well, this is the world of novels. What's the point of using logic? Creating contradictions, and then slapping people in the face and making a comeback. It's all good as long as there are enough exciting moments.

Isn’t this what readers want to see?

Jiang Jiang couldn't help but raise his eyebrows——

Superficial readers.

Well, including her, she is so superficial.

**

After getting rid of the messy thoughts in his mind, Jiang Jiang chose a more remote alley and walked straight there. Not long after, Jiang Jiang saw a back door. Looking at the surrounding environment and comparing it with the plot description in his mind, Jiang Jiang felt that this might be the small back door where the heroine Chu Yunyue often appeared.

Jiang Jiang was thinking when he suddenly heard some movement in the yard. Then, Jiang Jiang saw that the small wooden door was slowly opened from the inside.

Ah this...

There was no cover around, and Jiang Jiang subconsciously turned around and wanted to run, but... wouldn't it seem guilty if he ran away?

So, at the moment the wooden door was completely opened, Jiang Jiang held his head high and chest out, walked forward calmly, and passed by the door calmly.

That’s right, I’m just an ordinary person, a real ordinary person.

When passing by the wooden door, Jiang Jiang couldn't help but glance at it out of the corner of her eye, and was shocked to find that the person who pushed the door open was a thinly dressed girl.

"elder sister."

At this moment, the girl suddenly called Jiang Jiang, and her slender fingers trembled as she pulled her sleeve.

Jiang Jiang paused.

The girl in front of him looked about the same age as Jiang Jiang, even a little taller than Jiang Jiang, but her eyes were clear and childish, and she timidly called Jiang Jiang "Sister".

"you call me?"

Jiang Jiang stopped, turned around, and looked at the thinly dressed but beautiful girl in front of her. If she guessed correctly...

This must be the heroine, Chu Yunyue, right?

Well, it’s still the Chu Yunyue who hasn’t fully recovered her modern memories and is in a daze.

"Sister, I...I'm hungry."

Chu Yunyue looked at Jiang Jiang eagerly, and the hand that was holding the corner of her clothes became even tighter.

In the Chu family, Chu Yunyue has always been an insignificant existence. If it weren't for her identity as the "eldest daughter of the Chu family", she would have been tortured to death by those people in the family long ago.

Back then, Chu Yunyue's mother died of complications during childbirth. In the following years, Chu Yunyue lived a good life. However, when she was four years old, the Chu family discovered that she was different from ordinary children.

She was very slow in learning anything. She was already four years old, but could only speak a few simple words. When they were six or seven years old, other children in the Chu family could write and draw, but Chu Yunyue was still stupid and silly.

Gradually, Chu Yunyue, the "eldest daughter of the Chu family", became a waste, an idiot, and a burden in the eyes of the Chu family.

Without the protection of her mother, nor the favor of her father, and with the disdain of her family relatives, Chu Yunyue grew up in such an environment.

Chu Yunyue is now eighteen years old, but she still has the IQ of a five or six-year-old child. She is locked up in a remote small courtyard, and she will not starve to death as long as she stutters.

Perhaps she was too insignificant now and no one cared about her at all. So, when she was extremely hungry, Chu Yunyue would sneak out from the back door to find something to eat.

Looking at the pitiful hostess in front of her, Jiang Jiang felt around in her arms, and finally said helplessly: "Sister didn't bring any food today, otherwise... wait for me for a while, I'll go buy you some buns."

"Uh-huh."

Hearing Jiang Jiang's words, Chu Yunyue nodded vigorously, then squatted down against the wall like a puppy, with a well-behaved look on her face.

In the past, there was an old servant who often brought her food, and every time Chu Yunyue would squat here and wait for her obediently.

But Chu Yunyue didn't know at the moment that the old woman who often brought her food had died of illness a few days ago...
