[QTC] MBDT Chapter 1659

Bei Yutang stood silently to the side, letting Xiuhong vent her resentment.

“It’s good that he’s dead now, a good death indeed.” Xiuhong said, a tear rolling down her cheek.

After she finished venting, Bei Yutang spoke, “If Uncle Zhang didn’t care about your life or death, if he didn’t care about you, he wouldn’t have traveled all the way to Linzhou Prefecture to redeem you. Selling you for money before was probably his only option.”

“I’m not trying to excuse him, but there’s one thing I must say. Before Uncle Zhang died, the person he cared about most was you.”

Xiuhong buried her face in her hands, soft sobs escaping her lips.

“Xiuhong, time is running out. I’m asking you one last time, do you want to come back with me? I’ll take care of you from now on, and you can live with me.” Bei Yutang asked.

Xiuhong cried for a while before finally raising her head to look at her: “I don’t want to.”

Bei Yutang frowned slightly: “Are you sure you want to stay here as a slave?”

Xiuhong shook her head: “I don’t want to be a slave, and I don’t want to live with you.”

“Then what do you want?” Bei Yutang asked, somewhat confused.

“Father asked you to take care of me, but I don’t need it. You should leave.” Xiuhong said dejectedly.

“Your father has been kind to me, and I promised him I would take care of you.” Bei Yutang stated her intentions.

Xiuhong said unhappily, “Aren’t you annoying? I said I don’t want you to take care of me, so you don’t have to.”

Bei Yutang compromised, “How about this? What’s your wish? As long as it’s within my power, I’ll help you fulfill it.”

Xiuhong looked up at her, letting out a light snort, “Fine. You’re so eager to repay the kindness, so I’ll grant your wish. I want to become the Second Young Master’s wife. Can you do that?”

After saying that, Xiuhong looked at her provocatively.

“Is this your wish?”

“Yes. This is my wish. As long as you can help me achieve it, your debt to my father will be forgiven.”

Xiuhong scoffed, “What, you can’t do it?”

“Fine.” Bei Yutang agreed.

“I will make you the Second Young Madam of Master Zhang’s mansion.”

Xiu Hong’s eyes widened upon hearing her agreement: “You really can do it?”

“Yes. As long as you want it, I will make it happen for you.”

Xiuhong was now excited, her previous gloom vanishing: “You’re not lying to me, are you?”

“What good would it do me to lie to you?” Bei Yutang retorted.

“That’s true.” Xiuhong said happily.

“It’s getting late, I can’t stay here any longer. You should take good care of your injuries first. I’ll come back to see you in a few days. In the meantime, stay here quietly, don’t cause any trouble, and don’t appear before the Second Young Master. I’ll take care of everything else.” Bei Yutang instructed in a low voice.

Lu Cao outside began to rustle.

“I know. You’re so long-winded.” Xiuhong replied impatiently.

Bei Yutang wasn’t sure if she was listening, so she couldn’t help but add, “If you want to successfully become the Second Young Master’s wife, you have to listen to me. Otherwise, even if I had extraordinary abilities, I couldn’t help you.”

“Alright, alright, I know.” Xiu Hong waved her hand impatiently.

Seeing this, Bei Yutang said nothing more and turned to leave.

Seeing her come out, Lu Cao breathed a sigh of relief, “Hurry up and leave with me. The head steward will be here soon. If she finds you here, she’ll deduct my wages.”
