I just want to live a good life

The beautiful moonlit night and the slight tipsiness allowed Su Nuan to have a good sleep.

The next morning she got up earlier than anyone else.

One person first ran to the yard to count the roses that Baozhu had rescued, and then went to check the growth of the vegetable field.

He was weeding, fertilizing, and watering the plants, all while humming a little tune.

"My lady, why are you doing this again? These servants can do it."

Baozhu's voice rang out, and then her figure appeared in front of Su Nuan.

Su Nuan looked up at her and said with a smile: "I have nothing to do when I get up anyway, and I like doing these things."

"Your Majesty, have you encountered any happy things?" Baozhu asked.

"Ok?"

"Your Highness looks very different today than usual."

"What's the difference?"

"Joyful!"

Su Nuan was speechless. She just had a good sleep and didn’t feel happy about it!

"My lady, I have already planted all the roses that were destroyed yesterday. I picked out some flowers and buds that were not seriously damaged and planted them in pots. The others have been moved back to the flowerbed."

"Well done!" Su Nuan praised. "I just counted and found that barely 20 pots can be delivered as required. It seems that I can't let Bi Tao negotiate with them this time. I have to come in person."

"My lady, please take me with you this time. I am very strong and I might be able to help you if you encounter an assassin again."

Su Nuan smiled slightly after hearing this. Those assassins were all capable people who could "fly". Ordinary people like Baozhu who didn't know martial arts would only be killed if they met them.

However, the fact that Baozhu could say such words shows that she is loyal to herself.

"Okay." Su Nuan agreed readily, "But if we really encounter danger, I don't need your help, just run with me."

At this time, the other three people in Duiyueju also got up one after another. Chunliu and Meixiang went to cook, while Bitao followed Baozhu to arrange the flowers in the yard again.

Su Nuan went to the backyard by herself. This time she didn't need to call the secret guards hiding in the trees. She just looked at the place where they usually hid from a distance. She felt relieved when she vaguely saw someone there.

She was quite touched that Mu Yunting had people secretly protecting her all the time. Although there was a bit of surveillance involved, the scope was limited to outside the hospital and would not affect the normal lives of the five people in Duiyueju.

As soon as she finished breakfast, Su Nuan went to ask Butler Ding for a carriage. This time she planned to take all twenty pots of flowers with her. If she could reach an agreement, she would hand over the twenty pots of flowers first, and the others would be delivered in batches later. If she could not reach an agreement, she would try to get the other party to accept the flowers and deduct part of the deposit.

Butler Ding readily arranged a carriage for Su Nuan.

According to the rules, the carriage was waiting at the side door, but Su Nuan asked the driver to drive the carriage to the corner gate closest to Duiyue Residence. Several people avoided the eyes and ears of others and loaded the flowers into the carriage one pot at a time.

Afterwards, Su Nuan led Bi Tao and Bao Zhu onto the carriage.

The driver who drove the carriage today looked familiar. Su Nuan sat in the carriage for a long time but couldn't remember where she had seen this man.

According to the address given by Mr. Yue, the carriage drove towards the east of the city under the driver's drive.

The wooden wheels rumbled on the bluestone road for about an hour before finally stopping in front of a large mansion.

The words "Yue Mansion" were hung high above the door of the mansion, proving that they had found the right place.

The coachman parked the carriage and then went forward to knock on the door.

The person who opened the door was a servant. After hearing the purpose of Su Nuan and others' visit, he hurried back to report.

After a while, the servant came back again and indicated to Su Nuan that she could only bring one person in. Su Nuan originally wanted to bring Baozhu with her because Baozhu was wearing men's clothes like herself today. Her figure would look more like a man if she put on men's clothes and dressed up a little. Bringing her in would give her courage.

But before Su Nuan could speak, the driver stepped forward. He was strong and muscular, and Baozhu looked much smaller than him. Considering safety, it would be more appropriate to bring him in.

So Su Nuan did not stop the coachman, and the two of them entered Yue Mansion one after the other.

The servant led the two of them to a reception room. When they entered the room, a white-haired old man walked out from the inner hall. This old man was Mr. Yue who discussed business with Su Nuan in the teahouse a few days ago.

After a few pleasantries, Su Nuan went straight to the point, "Mr. Yue, I should have brought you a hundred pots of flowers today as we agreed, but I ran into some trouble and couldn't get so many flowers at once. I wonder if I can deliver them in several batches. I'll send you a batch of flowers today, and I'll give you the rest in some time. Of course, I'll give you some more flowers as compensation!"

Mr. Yue pondered for a moment and asked, "How many pots of flowers does Mr. Su plan to send me today?"

Su Nuan hesitated for a moment and replied, "Twenty pots."

Mr. Yue frowned and said, "Only twenty pots, this is too little!"

Su Nuan said quickly: "It is indeed a little less, but these twenty pots of flowers are considered as gifts. As long as Mr. Yue agrees, I will send the one hundred pots of flowers in batches later."

Mr. Yue seemed very tempted by such an offer. He thought for a while and said, "Mr. Su, please sit down for a while. I'll be back soon."

After saying this, Mr. Yue entered the inner hall.

Su Nuan picked up the teacup and wanted to drink some tea to moisten her throat, but was stopped by the coachman beside her.

The driver whispered to her, "My Lady, be careful. This Yue Yuan looks suspicious."

She asked the driver in surprise: "How did you know he was suspicious?"

The driver replied, "Madam Concubine, please look at Mr. Yue's table. There is only one cup of tea left. When we came in just now, there were two sets of teacups there. The maid who served tea took away one set."

"I didn't notice this just now." Su Nuan murmured.

"As soon as the concubine came in, she greeted Mr. Yue. Just now, when the maid went to collect the teacups, she deliberately blocked your view with her body. It seemed that she just changed a cup of tea for Mr. Yue, but in fact, she took away an extra set of teacups."

"So there were two people sitting there before we came in?"

The driver confirmed: "That's right, and I guess the other person is hiding in the inner hall right now. Mr. Yue is going to discuss countermeasures with him."

Su Nuan thought that the countermeasures they were discussing were also aimed at the sale of this batch of flowers, but then she changed her mind and felt a little scared. What if this Mr. Yue colluded with the assassin to kill her, and lured her here on the pretext of buying flowers, just to kill her here without anyone knowing? Wouldn't she be walking into a trap today?

Thinking of this, Su Nuan's hand holding the teacup began to tremble involuntarily.

Seeing this, the driver hurriedly said, "Don't be afraid, Concubine. I'm here and nothing will happen to you."

These words sounded more than just comforting Su Nuan. A driver with such insight, momentum and confidence could not help but make Su Nuan suspicious.

She slowly asked the driver: "Who are you?"
