"Miss, as far as I know, you still have a lot of money left and you are not short of money. Why did you pawn these jewels?"

“It’s called preparing for a rainy day.”

Without money you can't move forward. You must have money to leave this place.

However, everything depends on Xie Yu's choice. If he cannot give up the three palaces and six courtyards, then Lin Li will not marry him.

However, if Xie Yu had other women, Lin Li would be able to get away with it. However, it was hard to imagine how many years she could live without Xie Yu.

"See if there's anything you like, then pick it up. I'm going to pawn them all and put an end to it all."

"Ah, miss, has something happened?"

How come the young lady became a different person after returning from the young lady's place? Did the young lady say something hurtful?

"Don't worry about it, I'm fine." Lin Li didn't know what Yuzhu liked, so she just grabbed some jewelry and stuffed it into Yuzhu's hand, "Take it."

I'm afraid that I'll leave in a hurry and won't be able to leave anything for Yuzhu and the others. I said at the beginning that I would find ideal husbands for Yuzhu and the others, but I don't know if there will be another chance.

Suddenly she noticed the jade bracelet on her hand, which was the one Xie Yu put on her before he left. She took it off and put it away, intending to return it to him after Xie Yu came back.

The bracelet feels heavy, like a burden.

After sorting the jewellery, Lin Li put the jewellery to be pawned into a box and planned to leave the house.

"Go prepare the carriage. I'm leaving the house. Don't tell anyone else."

"Yes, miss." Yuzhu felt that whatever the miss did was right, and all she had to do was follow her.

When she took the items to the pawn shop, the owner was counting the money while Lin Li sat on the side drinking tea.

Those jewellery were bought by Lin Li earlier. At that time, she had no pursuits and spent all her money on buying clothes, jewellery, eating, drinking and having fun. She spent money like water and was not frugal at all.

Not knowing whether these jewellery pieces were still valuable, Lin Li found a shop she frequently dealt with and waited to be paid.

"Ms. Lin, this is silver, please keep it."

"Thank you."

Lin Li originally wanted to stroll around the market. After all, she hadn't been out for so long and missed the snacks outside. No matter how good the food in the mansion was, she would get sick of it if she ate too much.

However, it is not convenient to carry so much silver around, so I decided to take the silver back first and then find time to go out and play, and bring Yuzhu and the others with me.

When I took them shopping for clothes, they were all very frugal and were reluctant to buy new clothes, let alone jewelry.

As the world settled down, there were many Western gadgets. Although they were expensive, they were exquisite and beautiful, and Lin Li wanted to buy them as soon as she saw them.

I definitely won’t be able to take so many things with me when I run away, so I might as well buy some and give them to Yuzhu and the others.

After returning home, he put the heavy silver in a suitable place. No one else came to the room except Yuzhu and the others, so he felt safe leaving the silver there.

Lin Li took off her coat and stood beside the stove to warm herself. The snow had been melting in the past few days and it was colder than usual.

I just went out and my hands and feet are cold.

Zhou Yue brought in the milk tea that Lin Li had ordered early in the morning, "Miss, you've been running around all day, have some milk tea."

He also asked them to prepare more so that they could drink as well.

Lin Li asked Yuzhu to take off the jewelry and divide it secretly so that it would not be seen by those who had ulterior motives.

"The weather will be better in a few days and it won't be so cold. Come out with me for a walk. You guys will start to sprout if you stay in the room all day."

"Yes, ma'am."

Zhou Yue thought about it and decided to tell the young lady what she heard today.

"Miss, I heard from Qingqing that the young master has sent letters home again. He has been sending letters more and more frequently in the past few days."

"Really? Where did you end up?" Lin Li took a sip of milk tea to drive away the coldness in her body.

"It seems that they said that we can reach the capital in about one or two months."

"That's good."

The servant came in to add charcoal and interrupted what Zhou Yue was about to say. After the servant left.

"Miss, I have something to say, but I don't know whether I should say it or not."

"If you have anything to say, just say it." Lin Li sat on the chair, holding the hot water bottle in both hands.

"Guard Xie hasn't sent back any household information for several months, right? Although I have no right to ask about this matter, don't you find it strange, young lady?"

It has been a long time since the young lady received the letter from Guard Xie. Qingqing said that the eldest master did not mention Guard Xie at all in the letter.

"You really are the worm in my stomach. You know everything I'm thinking." Lin Li pulled Zhou Yue to sit on the chair with relief.

"Of course I feel that something is wrong. Xie Yu stopped writing to me. Is he hurt or has he changed his mind? I don't know."

If he had changed his heart, it would make sense. He met a woman on the road and fell in love with her at first sight. The woman took good care of him and relieved Xie Yu's loneliness along the way. Then, Xie Yu fell drunk in the arms of love and had long forgotten Lin Li, his old lover.
