Xiu Luoran roughly guessed what was going on:

"What happened to Aunt Jin?"

"It was nothing, she just kept vomiting. At first, the vomit was black, fishy and smelly. She couldn't even stand up after vomiting so much that I had to help her clean up.

Later, she started vomiting water, which didn’t stink as much. But she’s still vomiting, and now she can’t vomit anything, she just vomits.”

"Mochou, go to sleep. I'll go see her."

"I'll accompany the young lady."

When I entered Su Jin's room, a disgusting smell hit my nose.

Xiu Luoran asked, "Madam Jin, how do you feel?"

Although Su Jin looked very embarrassed, he was in good spirits:

"Miss, I'm fine, thank you for the medicine."

She felt really good. After vomiting, she felt warm and had more strength.

Ever since she left the Second Prince's Mansion, she felt like she was in an ice cellar every day. In the midsummer weather, her whole body was cold and she shivered constantly.

It's okay now. It seems the poison has been resolved.

Su Jin knelt down and said, "Thank you for saving my life, young lady. If you don't mind, I would like to stay by your side and serve you."

The young lady asked her and the fat maid to eat the delicious food she made with the masters. Where can you find such a master?

Xiu Luoran smiled and said, "Get up, we are a family from now on, there are no outsiders here, and you don't need to call yourself 'old slave'.

Take these three pills, one a day, and after three days, your poison will be completely eliminated."

"Thank you, Miss. Thank you, Miss. I see your back garden is in a state of disrepair. Qu Hou is a gardener and can grow vegetables.

Miss, can you take him?

Let him take care of the young lady's back garden. Although we don't sign a contract to sell ourselves, please believe us, and we swear to be loyal to you forever."

"Let me meet the person first."

"Ok."

Xiu Luoran handed Su Jin's box to her:

"I have retrieved your things. There are quite a few things in those five boxes. I don't want your half. Tomorrow, you take me to see Qu Hou."

"it is good."

It’s not that Xiu Luoran is stingy and doesn’t distribute things more prudently.

It seemed easy for Xiu Luoran to lead people to retrieve things, but if these people were not very capable, these five boxes of things would not be retrieved.

Ordinary people couldn’t even enter the garden of the Second Prince’s Palace.

If it were easy, Su Jin wouldn't have spent more than ten days trying to find a reliable person to do this.

Besides, if they were discovered by the people from the Second Prince's Palace when they were taking things, they would either be killed or injured, and the consequences would be very serious.

Su Jin provided the information about the box, which could be considered as Xiu Luoran's reward for detoxifying her and retrieving the things.

The next day, Xiu Luoran came to find Xiu Yuancang and wanted to tell him that she was going out.

When I walked outside Xiu Yuancang's house, I heard a young man's voice speaking inside:

"...Uncle, my dad listens to you the most, can you please persuade him to stop locking up my mom?

Although my mother made a mistake, she shouldn't be punished so severely, right?"

After hearing this, Xiu Luoran already knew who was speaking: her second uncle's cousin Xiu Lingqi.

Xiu Luoran stepped in:

“Just locking someone up, is that a punishment?

Your family eats the food from our big house, lives in our big house, and spends the money from our big house.

That’s fine. We’re family after all, so it doesn’t matter if we spend a little.

But please recognize your place, especially your mother.

Although she was in charge of the household, she was just a housekeeper and she was not yet the mistress of the Marquis's Mansion.

I didn't expect that she would actually deduct money from me. She really doesn't know her place.

I spent my food, clothing and other expenses with my father's money, and not a penny from your second wife.

She gave me the junk that your sisters didn't want and got a chamber pot cleaner as my personal maid. What was she thinking, huh?

Has she been in charge of the household for too long and thought that the whole house belongs to her, so she feels bad when I spend a little? Who does she think she is?"

"Luoluo, don't be so presumptuous."

Although Xiu Yuancang was scolding Xiu Luoran, the corners of his mouth curled up subtly, showing his good mood.

Xiu Luoran lowered his head out of respect, looking remorseful.

"Luoluo, this is your cousin Lingqi."

Xiu Luoran called out, "Cousin."

Xiu Lingqi looked at Xiu Luoran in shock. No wonder his sister said this girl was powerful. It turned out that she was really not a good person.

Xiu Luoran looked at Xiu Lingqi:

"What are you looking at me for? Am I wrong? I'm spending my own money and using my own things. Why doesn't your mother give me anything?

Why did she give me things that your sisters don't want? Am I a rag picker? Am I not worthy of good things?

I tell you, don't forget, I am the legitimate daughter of the Marquis's Mansion, what are your sisters?"

Although Xiu Lingqi didn't think his mother had made a big mistake, he was a scholar after all, and he felt a little embarrassed when Xiu Luoran scolded him.

He nodded to Xiu Yuancang, without daring to look at Xiu Luoran, and went back without touching the ground.

Looking at his nephew walking away, Xiu Yuancang looked at his daughter with amusement:

"He is your brother after all, so be careful with your words in the future."

"I see."

Xiu Luoran agreed very readily. As for whether it could be changed, Xiu Luoran said that she scolded them because she was in a good mood. If they angered her, she would beat them with fists and whips!

"Dad, Su Jin and I are going out to do something."

"Go ahead. Do you need to bring a few people with you?"

"We're just going out for a walk. We're not going to fight. Why bring anyone with you?"

Su Jin had worked as a nanny in many wealthy families, so many people knew her.

Besides, she escaped from the Second Prince's Palace, so she couldn't be seen by anyone when she went out.

Xiu Luoran hired a small donkey cart. She drove the cart and pulled Su Jin, and the two of them went to find Su Jin's man Qu Hou.

Xiu Luoran originally thought that since Qu Hou was a person from outside the city who came to Beijing, the house he bought would probably be very small and shabby, maybe even in the suburbs of Beijing.

Unexpectedly, Qu Hou's house was just behind the Zhenxi Marquis Mansion, two streets away. It was a nice house with two courtyards.

When they reached the door, Su Jin in the car said:

“Miss, look at that big shabby yard next to you, that’s the home of the prodigal son I mentioned.

His parents died, and he squandered all his family fortune. He didn't know how to clean up his house, and over the years, the good house turned into a dilapidated yard.

He couldn't make ends meet anymore and wanted to sell the house, but he was asking for too much and no one would buy it. "

After hearing Su Jin's words, Xiu Luoran jumped onto the wall and looked towards the yard.

"Hey, why are you standing on my wall? Come down."

Unexpectedly, Xiu Luoran was seen as soon as he climbed up the wall.

Xiu Luoran glanced at Qu Houjia:

"I think that house is nice. I want to stand on the wall to take a good look at it and ask the owner if he wants to sell it."

When the man heard that Xiu Luoran wanted to buy a house, he immediately came over:

"Little girl, what do you think of my house?"

Xiu Luoran curled his lips and said, "It's too broken, no."

When the man heard that Xiu Luoran didn't want it, he hurriedly shouted:

"Don't refuse. How about I sell it to you at a lower price?"

Xiu Luoran still didn't want it and kept shaking his head.

"Don't stand on the wall. What can you see there? Come down and take a look."

Xiu Luoran really jumped down to look at the house, and ended up getting a great bargain and making a fortune.
