Seeing his younger sister's appearance, Qing Teng understood.

She knew her younger sister's personality all too well. She seemed gentle and mild-mannered, but in reality, she was stubborn and would never change her mind once she made up her mind.

Her parents had previously arranged a marriage for her, but she had always refused, presumably because she was waiting for this young man.

Now that we've finally arrived, we're not willing to give up no matter what.

Bai Zhi and Chen Xiang looked at each other, feeling that this was truly a predestined fate. However, now that he had become a beggar, they wondered if Huang Qingqing's parents could accept it.

Song Ruozhen did some quick calculations and realized that the two were actually destined for each other, a smile flashing in her eyes.

Moreover, this young master, who fell from grace and became a beggar, was not destined for poverty. He came from a wealthy family, but his family's decline and the hardships he endured only strengthened his will.

He will meet a benefactor and achieve certain success.

She glanced at Huang Qingqing, then thought of herself. Now was a turning point in his fate, and it seemed... she might be the benefactor.

"Brother Yi, will you marry me?"

Huang Qingqing looked at him with a smile; in fact, she had wanted to ask him this question for a long time.

If he is willing, then she will marry him; this is something she has thought about since she was a child.

If he is unwilling, then the Monkey King will no longer need to keep thinking about this matter and can look forward again.

Zhao Ziyi listened to Huang Qingqing's words, his Adam's apple bobbing slightly, his eyes filled with disbelief. He spoke with a complex expression:

"Now that I've fallen to this state and have nothing left, will you still marry me?"

“When I was a child, I was no different from a beggar, but you never looked down on me.”

Huang Qingqing's eyes were sincere. She had suffered since childhood, and in her opinion, as long as you are willing to work hard, there is no obstacle that cannot be overcome.

Besides, although she makes a living by selling vegetables, she can support herself; it's just a matter of having an extra pair of chopsticks.

Zhao Ziyi's eyes grew redder and redder as memories of the past flashed before his eyes. He had always thought that this girl was exceptionally beautiful when she smiled.

Later, when his family fell into poverty and his parents passed away, he completely gave up on the idea. But he never expected that one day, the girl from back then would take the initiative to come up to him and not look down on his poverty.

"I...I can't give you anything right now."

"Would you like to sell vegetables with me?" Huang Qingqing asked again.

Zhao Ziyi suppressed the bitterness in his heart and nodded heavily, but at the moment of nodding, tears fell to the ground.

"I am willing."

Seeing this scene, Qing Teng couldn't help but sigh. As the older sister, she naturally hoped that her younger sister would have a bright future.

However, she also felt that this kind of fate was rare, and since it was a life-saving grace, it was normal to repay it with her body.

Looking closely, this young master is quite handsome, but after becoming a beggar, he seems even stronger than before. Could it be that he gained strength from fighting with others for food?

"Qing Teng, you should take your sister and this young master back first. It's not too late to return to the manor after this matter is settled."

Song Ruozhen smiled slightly. If Zhao Ziyi is truly talented, he will always find a way out.

If they were literate and could work as accountants, the Song family would have plenty of opportunities to hire people.

"Thank you, Your Highness," Qing Teng said gratefully.

Just as they were talking, Lu Huai'an finished delivering his thirty strokes of the cane.

The guards stopped, but Lu Huai'an lay on the ground, too weak to get up.

He feels pain all over his body now. The first time he was hit with the board, it hurt a lot, but now it hurts even more than the first time. He doesn't know if it's because his foundation was damaged before and he can't bear it anymore!

After thinking for a moment, Song Biyun helped him up from the ground.

Lu Huai'an got angry just looking at Song Biyun. If it weren't for her, he wouldn't have been punished today!

That guy is a jinx!

"Thirty strokes of the cane are finished?" Song Ruozhen's lips curled slightly. "Someone, take Young Master Lu to Shuntian Prefecture. He must tell the magistrate everything that happened today so that the magistrate can make a judgment."

"Yes, princess."

The two guards immediately took Lu Huai'an away.

Lu Huai'an was in pain all over his body at the moment, so how could he have any strength?

The two men glanced at each other, then simply picked up Lu Huai'an and carried him away.

"Wait, how could you do this?"

Song Biyun was stunned by what she saw and quickly followed. Song Ruozhen dared to hit someone with thirty strokes of the cane just because she was a princess. The prefect will surely give them justice!

"Miss, Miss Biyun has really lost her mind. People are saying she's not clean and they want to divorce her, but she still wants to follow them. I never realized she was such an easy person to bully!"

Chen Xiang was speechless. She had seen Song Biyun's arrogant and domineering behavior before, but now she seemed like a completely different person, which was truly unbelievable!

“She was able to act so recklessly before because her uncle and aunt spoiled her. Now that she has met Li Xiaoniang and Lu Huai’an, she has naturally lost her temper.”

Song Ruozhen's expression was indifferent. Song Biyun was just spoiled and arrogant before, and did not have any real ability.

On the contrary, she cannot afford to lose.

Even knowing I was wrong, I didn't have the courage to start over.

……

Qing Teng and Huang Qingqing took Zhao Ziyi home.

Zhao Ziyi originally felt that it was really inappropriate for him to go there looking like this, but he had no other choice at the moment.

"Don't be nervous. Actually, my mother remembers you too. She saw you feeding me back then, and she always said you were a good person."

Huang Qingqing noticed Zhao Ziyi's unease, but she was secretly pleased.

Now their family is gradually getting better, and she believes that as long as they work harder and are more diligent, their lives will get better and better.

Zhao Ziyi nodded, but felt a sense of euphoria, as if he were in a dream. He had recognized Huang Qingqing long ago, which was why he had been staying not far from where she was selling vegetables.

In this world, there is no one I care about. Being able to see her again is something to be happy about. But I never expected that she would not only remember me, but also be willing to marry me.

"Sister, I've heard you say before that Princess Chu is a very good person, and now I truly believe it. She's like a fairy who descended from heaven!"

Huang Qingqing held Qing Teng's hand, recalling the princess she had met before, her eyes filled with admiration and respect.

Qing Teng smiled and nodded, "The Princess is truly a wonderful person. I was a little worried when I was first assigned to serve her, but later I realized that I was incredibly lucky to be able to serve such a good master!"

“Today we have completely offended Lu Huai’an. The princess even gave me a token, saying that if Lu Huai’an comes to cause us trouble again, we should go to her for help,” Huang Qingqing said.

Qing Teng understood, and felt even more grateful to Song Ruozhen.

"Don't worry, Lu Huai'an won't dare to cause trouble again."

As they entered the house, they saw Huang's mother busy in the yard.

"Oh, what's going on here...?"
