XVII. Manufacturing turnaround
The morning market in Yangzhou City is very famous, and in this lively morning market, there is a person with an anxious expression and a hurried look scurrying around in the crowd - that is me, Liu Yun, who has been running away from home for a day and a night.
In fact, I had already made my way out of the city that night, but halfway through, something that I should have forgotten came to my mind. I finally remembered why I was so familiar with the style of the jade pendant - because I had seen the same jade pendant before - Liu Xueyan, the fan left by my mother, also hung the same pendant as the jade pendant. It's just a little smaller, and the texture is much inferior. Is this a coincidence? I'm afraid it's not just a coincidence, didn't Wang Ma also mention that Liu Xueyan once had a lover and was still an official, could it be him? I remember that Wang's mother said that I was born prematurely, that my mother died less than a year after marrying my father, that I was born prematurely, that I was lovesick, that a terrible thought suddenly crossed my mind—can it, can it......
I thought and thought, and decided to turn around and go back to Yangzhou City, seeing that he was in a hurry that day, he should have rushed from the city like me. That eighth master shouldn't be so fast, he should still be in Yangzhou City. Running out of the city aimlessly and pennilessly like mine, my chances of survival are basically zero. It's better to go back and gamble, maybe there will be something else. Besides, I've always been very confident in my own analytical and reasoning skills, and I've even crossed through such unthinkable things, and what else is there to gamble on.
Now I've been in Yangzhou City for a full day, and he still hasn't shown up. I am at great risk by staying in the city, and if he does not show up again, I will starve to death if I am caught by my wife. God, since you let me travel and be reborn here, you will never be so cruel as to let me starve to death in this era, right? I believe that you will have something else significant for me to be reborn in this era.
Sure enough, that night, I finally met him in front of a restaurant. Next, it's how I arranged the memorable "first" meeting between us.
Seeing him and his entourage enter the restaurant, I estimated the time and knew that he would not be able to come out for a while. So I first walked to the dark alley next to me, and replaced the silk dress on my body with the coarse cloth clothes that my mother had made for me—the only valuable thing I had on me now was made for me by my lord on the way to Yangzhou. Then I quickly ran to the pawnshop and changed my clothes for silver taels, and the success or failure was in one fell swoop—and Madame would soon know my whereabouts according to it, which is why I had been hungry for two days and had not been a pawn.
I took the silver taels and walked to a few beggars lying idly on the side of the street - God is the witness, from now on, my Zhang Xiaoying's fate will have nothing to do with Liu Yun at all. My destiny can only be written by myself!
