Demoted from wife to concubine? Reborn, the mistress of a noble family plots another high-status mar

Chapter 62

Her master was the legendary healer, Ghost Hand.

She had learned medicine from the legendary healer, Ghost Hand, since childhood. However, after marrying Shen Yue, she was trapped in the inner quarters of the household. Foolishly, she was deceived and lost everything, her family was destroyed, and she almost forgot that she wanted to be as free and unrestrained as her master, not bound by anything or anyone.

She can make her own wound medicine and health-preserving pills, and they are no different from, or even better than, those made by her master.

Shen Yue explained to Lin Bao'er that it was to buy medicine. A short while later, Qinghe sent someone to say that the matter was settled, and Lin Bao'er's anger subsided.

"Baby, you're the only one in my heart. Even if there are other women, they're just using you."

"You should trust me."

Lin Bao'er cried, "I believe you, but I'm heartbroken. I'm afraid you'll be taken away by those women. My lord... you're the only one I can rely on in Daxia. Please don't leave me."

Shen Yue felt a pang of heartache. "Okay, I'll go find Qinghe now and buy medicine. I'm doing this for our future."

"I won't touch that woman again, so don't cry."

A bottle of health-preserving pills costs three thousand taels; buying two bottles would cost six thousand taels.

It still hurts to spend the money.

You really can't do without money. Sixty thousand taels isn't enough to live on, and it'll be gone in the blink of an eye in just a few months.

"My lord, I heard that the Yun family is buying up charcoal. Don't we have a lot of charcoal stored up in our estate? We can sell it; I heard the price is pretty good."

"There is still food."

The Marquis's residence has its own granary, where a considerable amount of grain is stored.

Shen Yue thought it was a good idea, so he handed it over to Lin Bao'er to do, and she quickly earned a lot of money.

"The Yun family is really rich. If Xiaoyue marries Young Master Yun, she will definitely enjoy a life of luxury." Lin Bao'er was immediately tempted after witnessing the Yun family's wealth and power.

If Shen Yue marries Yun Xiaohan, she can reap many benefits from it. "We can invest in the Yun family's shops and make money from them."

He had discussed this matter with Li and the others, and they thought it was feasible.

However, Yun Xiaohan was engaged, and Yun Xiyue clearly did not agree to the marriage.

He also wanted to establish a connection with the Prince of Qin's residence.

We'll see then.

......

Empress Dowager's birthday banquet.

Having not been to the palace for a long time, Yun Xiyue recalled the humiliation she suffered in her past life at the hands of the old eunuch Liu, and the pain she endured as she walked out of the palace gates. Her heart palpitated and her hands and feet turned cold.

I don't know if the old eunuch ever contacted the Shen family after I escaped that day.

Since there was no empress in the palace, the female relatives who came to the palace for the banquet went directly to the Empress Dowager's palace to pay their respects.

The person in charge of the palace banquet was Consort Pei, and the person speaking to Consort Pei was Eunuch Liu.

The old eunuch looked up at her and smiled. "Madam Shen, you don't look well. Are you feeling unwell?"

Yun Xiyue clenched her fists, feeling nauseous and wanting to vomit. "I am fine, no need for you to worry, Father-in-law."

Old Man Liu was over fifty years old, with gray hair. The old woman was bloated and her face was as white as a dead person. She was also a pervert who specialized in toying with young girls.

Yun Xiyue just wanted to leave as soon as possible.

“Madam Shen…” Eunuch Liu suddenly grabbed her wrist and chuckled softly, “Don’t be afraid, we’re very good at taking care of people.”

Yun Xiyue almost screamed and pushed him away violently, "How dare you! How dare you disrespect me? I am the wife of Marquis Anjun."

Eunuch Liu chuckled lightly, completely unrestrained. He could be said to have absolute power in the palace. Even the emperor treated him with deference, and he was a close advisor to the Empress Dowager. How could he be afraid of a mere Marquis An?

If the Shen family can send her to the palace, they will send her a second time.

Little beauty, you can't escape today!

Seeing that he didn't speak, Yun Xiyue quickly left.

“Madam…” Qingmei was quite startled. “That eunuch seems to be the chief eunuch, Eunuch Liu… It is said that he is highly valued in the palace.”

Yun Xiyue knew this all along, but she wouldn't sit idly by and wait to die. She would get her revenge for the humiliation she suffered in her past life.
