Quick Transmigration: Survive to the End

Shen Ruyin pondered for a long time before tentatively speaking.

"Could it be because I'm close to you, sister, and with Rong Mama serving me, you can continue to maintain your connection with the Dowager Consort? After all, I will definitely help you, sister."

“Not stupid at all,” the eldest girl didn’t deny Shen Ruyin’s words. “Would you be unhappy?”

“You’ve always helped and protected me, big sister. Now that I can help you, how could I not be happy? Besides, you’re telling me the truth, not hiding anything from me or plotting against me. If you were hiding something from me, that’s when I would be unhappy.”

Upon hearing this, the eldest daughter's smile softened even more, but she couldn't help but sigh, "Fortunately, you'll have Rong Mama by your side from now on, otherwise, with your temperament, you'd definitely suffer a lot."

Shen Ruyin was a little unconvinced and said in a coquettish tone, "Isn't this in front of you, big sister? If it were someone else, do you think I would say anything?"

"Okay, then I'll wait and see."

After the eldest daughter returned to the manor, her life seemed not much different from before, yet it also felt like everything had changed.

Aside from paying her respects to the old lady and the Earl of Zhongxin and his wife, the eldest daughter rarely left the courtyard, but all the food, clothing and daily necessities sent to her courtyard were of the finest quality.

The second daughter and Aunt Xu had secretly argued with Uncle Zhongxin twice, which angered Uncle Zhongxin so much that he didn't go to Aunt Xu's courtyard for quite some time.

On the day the eldest daughter entered the mansion, Shen Ruyin had the opportunity to come and see her off.

"Elder sister," Shen Ruyin said, seeing that there were only a few maids serving her in the room, she directly stuffed the purse she had been holding all the way into the eldest girl's hand, "This is what we agreed on."

The embroidery on the outside of the purse was fairly neat, but it was clearly not the work of an embroiderer.

The young woman squeezed the purse; it didn't feel like silver, but it was solid.

“Then I’ll accept it,” the young lady carefully put the purse away, then took Shen Ruyin’s hand, her eyes glistening with tears. “After I leave, you must take good care of yourself in the manor and visit your grandmother and mother often.”

Shen Ruyin naturally nodded in agreement: "Elder sister, don't worry about me. You are the one who needs to be safe and sound. I'm looking forward to the day you summon me to your residence to meet you."

“Okay,” the eldest girl held her hand tightly until someone outside came to urge her, then reluctantly let go, and took out a small key and handed it to her, “I left something for you, and I’ve already asked Rong Mama to get it. You can put it away yourself when the time comes.”

"Big sister, I will keep this carefully and never lose it."

"I told you to pack it up properly, not that I didn't want you to use it. Things are just inanimate objects," the young woman said hastily, as she was in a hurry to leave. "Don't see me off, it just makes me feel sad."

Watching her older sister, who had grown up with her since childhood and was as beautiful and graceful as a peony, leave in a pink dress with several trunks, Shen Ruyin felt a little uncomfortable, but she stayed in the room as instructed.

Seeing her secretly wiping away tears, Rong Momo presented her with the dressing case she had just retrieved.

"Young lady, this is something the eldest daughter left for you."

"Thank you for your trouble, Granny Rong," Shen Ruyin glanced at it and told her to put it away first and open it when they got back.

After thinking for a moment, Rong Momo reminded her, "Miss, why don't you take a look first? I feel it in my hand, and it's quite heavy."

Is it a bit heavy? Shen Ruyin became curious and took the small key that her older sister had given her before she left to open the dressing case.

When you open the first layer, you see all sorts of worn-out jewelry. Although the colors aren't bright, many of them are inlaid with pearls and gemstones, piled up in a large, haphazard way.

Shen Ruyin quickly closed the first door and opened the second door.

Good heavens, a whole floor of scattered gold and silver pastries and silver coins.

Shen Ruyin sobbed, "It's all thanks to my older sister for being so good to me!"

She mustered her courage and opened the last slot, but only glanced at it before closing it immediately.

Compared to what her elder sister gave her, the purse she just gave her was nothing. This one box alone could be worth more than the dowry of many ordinary daughters of officials.

My older sister is really something... She never flaunts her wealth, but when she does, it's always a big spender.

Shen Ruyin locked the box in a daze, and exchanged a glance with Rong Mama, who was staring in disbelief.

"Granny, this matter must not be told to outsiders."

Rong Momo quickly said, "Don't worry, Miss, you are my mistress."

Shen Ruyin then handed the box back to Rong Mama: "Mama, you keep it for now. I'll find a place to put it when we get back."
