After being reborn, I locked up all the scumbags and bitches in one nest.

After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Qin Wanyou and Shuangling left the gate of the Right Prime Minister's residence and came to the main street.

After leaving the manor, Shuangling dared to complain, "Miss, this Madam is too stingy! A pair of shoes or a hairpin for the eldest young lady costs more than five taels of silver, yet she only gave you five taels of silver to buy jewelry and clothes. Isn't this humiliating?"

After arriving in Yandu City and entering the Right Prime Minister's residence, Shuangling's horizons broadened. Five taels of silver was nothing more than a drop in the ocean for a wealthy and powerful family.

Looking at the stalls of the merchants on both sides of the street, Qin Wanyou heard Shuangling's complaints and said sarcastically, "Maybe she's bleeding inside if you give her those five taels of silver."

Shuangling was indignant for Qin Wanyou, "Miss, Madam is really too unfair. If we didn't know you were the second young lady of the Right Prime Minister's mansion, and she gave you only five taels of silver, I think everyone would think you weren't Madam's biological daughter."

Qin Wanyou scoffed inwardly. Of course, he wasn't her biological son, but no one would believe her if she said it out loud.

"Let's not talk about this anymore, let's go get something to eat first."

After saying that, Qin Wanyou led Shuangling straight to the best restaurant—Tianxianglou, where the steamed fish was really delicious!

After the two of them finished eating, Shuangling ate most of the food. Qin Wanyou noticed that Shuangling had grown taller recently, and she herself had also been eating quite a lot while cultivating.

Shuangling, patting her bloated stomach, suddenly remembered something and leaned close to Qin Wanyou, whispering worriedly, "Miss, we only seem to have five taels of silver on us. How are we going to pay? Maybe I should go find..." She was about to suggest going to find Fengling.

Looking out the window at the bustling street below, Qin Wanyou interrupted Shuangling, "Or how about I pawn you off at a restaurant and have you work as a dishwasher to earn money to buy your freedom?"

Shuangling grew anxious. "Miss, I'm not joking with you, I'm serious!"

Qin Wanyou looked at Shuangling, who was getting a little anxious, and said, "Don't worry, I won't sell you."

I was just about to call the waiter to settle the bill.

Then they heard someone gently knock three times outside the room.

Qin Wanyou and Shuangling exchanged a glance, and Qin Wanyou gave Shuangling a look.

Shuangling immediately spoke, "Go in."

Then the restaurant manager came in with a waiter.

The innkeeper greeted the two with a beaming smile, "Excuse me for disturbing your meal, miss. It's like this, the restaurant is having a lucky draw today, and we just happened to win your room number. So, congratulations on winning a free meal today! Is there anything else you need, miss?"

Qin Wanyou raised an eyebrow; something was fishy!

Shuangling's mouth dropped open in surprise, and her eyes widened. "Shopkeeper, are you telling the truth? You're not lying to us, are you? You're going to eat and then leave without paying and accuse us of dine and dash?"

The shopkeeper's smile remained unchanged. "I did not deceive you, Miss. Everything I said is true. If you need anything, please let the waiter know. It will all be free. If there are no other issues, I will take my leave now. Please enjoy your meal."

Qin Wanyou's lips curved slightly. Before the shopkeeper left, she stood up and said in a cool tone, "Thank you, shopkeeper. We've just finished eating and don't need anything else. We were just about to pay the bill, but since you said it's on the house, we'll be going now."

The shopkeeper bowed slightly to Qin Wanyou, "Alright, miss, take care, and welcome back next time!"

After the master and servant left, the shopkeeper wiped away non-existent cold sweat from his forehead. This future crown princess is no ordinary woman!

He then went to a special room in the restaurant to report the situation.

After the shopkeeper finished reporting and left,

Mo Xi asked Murong Xiao, puzzled, "Master, why didn't you tell Miss Qin that you invited her to dinner?"

Murong Xiao sipped his tea slowly, thinking about the clear-cut agreement they had reached that night.

"She won't agree to that."

Moxi continued to wonder, "If we hadn't given her a free meal, do you think she would have been able to come up with the money to pay in the end?"

Moxi simply saw Miss Qin Er dining at the restaurant by accident. When he returned from relieving himself, he overheard Shuangling's words in the corridor and then sought confirmation from Xiao Ba, who was hiding and protecting Miss Qin Er in the Prime Minister's residence.

I never expected that the wife of the Right Prime Minister's mansion would be so stingy, only giving the second young lady five taels of silver to go shopping and buy jewelry.

Murong Xiao chuckled lightly, "You underestimate her."

"Master, how can the lady of the Right Prime Minister's mansion be so stingy? She only gave her five taels of silver to buy jewelry. She can't even afford a decent hairpin, can she? Is the Second Miss really her biological daughter?" Mo Xi complained.

While at Huguo Temple, Murong Xiao knew that Qin Wanyou was not valued at all in the Right Prime Minister's residence. He heard from his uncle that after the assassination attempt at Huguo Temple, the Right Prime Minister's residence did not send anyone to visit or care for her, even though she was seriously injured.

Could it be?

Was her injury related to the Right Prime Minister's residence?

Now, hearing Moxi's complaints, it seems there might really be some unspeakable secrets. It appears the Right Prime Minister's residence is not as simple as it seems on the surface.

Seeing that Murong Xiao did not answer, Mo Xi continued to complain, "Back then, Qin Mingyu was so generous at Yanshan Academy. And now her two younger brothers are the same, living in luxury and spending money like water. The Right Prime Minister's Mansion doesn't seem to be short of money. But I heard that Old Madam Qin favors boys over girls and looks down on girls. Could it be that she made them do this?"

Then she thought again, "That's not right either. Xiao Ba said that it was Li Mama, who was by Madam Qin's side, who gave the order. Even if the old lady told her to do it, wouldn't she have given it to her secretly? After all, she is her daughter."

Murong Xiao continued to sip his tea slowly, occasionally glancing at the bustling crowd outside the window, ignoring Moxi's doubts. In any case, if he couldn't figure it out, he would eventually investigate it himself, and once he found out, Moxi would naturally come to him to claim credit.

After Qin Wanyou and Shuangling left the restaurant, they didn't see the restaurant cause any trouble, so they left with peace of mind.

Shuangling was overjoyed. "Miss, they just let us go like that! No one stopped us from taking our money. What the shopkeeper said was actually true. We're so lucky today!"

Seeing Shuangling's immense joy, Qin Wanyou didn't dampen her spirits and simply gave a soft "hmm".

But deep down I didn't believe it. I'll find out who's really being taken advantage of eventually.

The master and servant wandered around the streets, looking here and there.

Over the past month, Qin Wanyou has basically explored all the bustling streets of Yandu City. She truly admires Emperor Yan's talent for governing the country; he is indeed a good emperor!

For ten years, he worked diligently and devoted himself to the government, focusing on agriculture, education, and commerce, transforming the devastated capital of Yan into the bustling city it is today, with its streets and alleys thriving.

I've heard that the Emperor has been making incognito visits from time to time these past few years. I imagine that while other places may not be as prosperous as Yandu, there are no cases of people being homeless or freezing to death on the streets.

The two strolled into a jewelry store. The shop assistant, judging from Qin Wanyou's demeanor, guessed that she must be a young lady from a wealthy family and immediately stepped forward to greet her, "Miss, please come in. What kind of jewelry would you like? I'll recommend some to you."

Shuangling spoke kindly to the waiter, "We'll take a look first, and call you if we need anything."

The two shop assistants were also very helpful. "Alright, take a look around, there's more upstairs."

Qin Wanyou glanced at the jewelry displayed on the shelf, but didn't see anything that interested her or anything particularly beautiful.

I was just about to go upstairs to take a look,

Then we heard a sound coming from upstairs.

"Hey, isn't this Qin Er? What? You also want to buy the jewelry above? Can you afford it?"
