Chapter 520: Mysterious Young Lady No. 513 (Part 8) - Third Update

"Shut up, let’s go up," the man with brows and eyes like a painting beside him spoke gently.

This man must have great authority, for Li Xiu immediately closed his mouth and then, with a burst of energy, carried his master up to the ceiling beams.

Meanwhile, the people outside could no longer bear it and broke in through the door.

Li Xiu’s face was ashen, and he had already made up his mind that if they discovered him and his master, he would lead these people away to prevent them from harming the two unfamiliar ladies.

The leader, a man dressed in the uniform of a bailiff, saw only a boudoir girl embroidering in the room.

There was also a maid attending to her.

He didn’t enter.

He just stood outside the door for a look.

"My apologies for the intrusion, Young Lady," Ye Shaohua’s room was very small, with nowhere to hide; the bailiff glanced inside and immediately turned to leave, "Let’s go to the next house!"

After saying this, he led the crowd away and even considerately closed the door for Ye Shaohua.

Li Xiu, who had been ready to jump down and lead the people away, was stunned and watched in disbelief as the door closed.

"Come down." Ye Shaohua didn’t even look up, continuing to embroider with single-minded focus.

Li Xiu, still in a daze, brought his master down.

The man next to him cleared his throat, his black eyes steadfastly fixed on Ye Shaohua, and then he laughed, "I am Mi Shenyun. I thank you, Miss, for your help today."

Ye Shaohua, who had been concentrating on her embroidery, couldn’t help but look up at him upon hearing Mi Shenyun’s voice.

Mi Shenyun subconsciously pursed his lips.

"Have you been experiencing chills, fever, persistent headaches, fatigue, and blackened lips and tongue recently?" Just when Mi Shenyun thought Ye Shaohua wouldn’t speak, she suddenly asked.

Mi Shenyun didn’t respond, just giving Ye Shaohua a glance.

Li Xiu also looked up at Ye Shaohua in surprise.

Ye Shaohua, ignoring their skepticism, continued, "You have contracted the epidemic. Actually, it shouldn’t break out during this season; it usually occurs in summer. You must have recently come into contact with something from an epidemic patient by accident."

Li Xiu suddenly thought of something, his eyes filling with rage, "Master, we must hurry back to the capital!"

He remembered that this summer, an epidemic had broken out along the Yellow River, causing innumerable deaths and illnesses. Those who were infected were quarantined and burned, leaving even the Imperial Physician at the Palace at a loss.

Once someone was infected, even their relatives dared not come near.

Those fires along the Yellow River were set by people on behalf of the thirteenth prince.

No wonder, no wonder his master couldn’t muster his Internal Strength in the face of those people today!

Hearing that he might have contracted the epidemic, Mi Shenyun stepped back several paces, ending up near the door, "This matter will be reciprocated with a thank you gift in a few days."

After he finished speaking, he was about to turn around and leave.

However, a cool warmth suddenly clasped his wrist.

Mi Shenyun, somewhat rigid, looked down to see the hand lifting his own and the fingers that lightly touched his pulse. He didn’t know how to react.

He thought to himself that he had the epidemic and shouldn’t let her touch him, but his hand seemed to refuse to obey his brain’s commands.

"With Jiangling and Jingzhou being at least half a month’s journey apart, can you last until you get back?" Ye Shaohua glanced at him, then thought for a moment and asked Zu Xiao to bring paper and a writing brush.

She wrote down a prescription and a list of precautions, and handed them to Mi Shenyun, "Find a quiet place to recuperate and be careful not to come into contact with strangers."

Mi Shenyun looked down and saw the writing that seemed to penetrate the paper, momentarily dumbstruck.

For some reason, those characters felt eerily familiar to him.

But he only paused briefly and then quickly left, taking Li Xiu with him.

Not long after they left, Ye Shaohua’s mother returned from Wang Dàniáng’s home.

"Mother, you don’t have to go sew clothes tomorrow. Your daughter can now earn money," Ye Shaohua handed her mother the money she got from Madam Lin that day.

The fabric and the orders she took from Madam Lin earned Ye Shaohua a total of two to three hundred taels of silver. In ancient times, that amount was enough for a family of four to live well for several years.

Receiving the money earned by Ye Shaohua, her mother’s fingers trembled.

Disbelieving, she went to Ye Shaohua’s room to check the embroidery work and saw the bird about to fly deftly off the fan. She finally believed that her daughter was a great talent!

Just this embroidery skill alone was several degrees superior to that of Ye Qingqing.

"I always knew my daughter wasn’t useless," Ye Shaohua’s mother said, her voice choking up, but she stubbornly prevented herself from shedding tears, "So what if we left the Ye Family’s Mansion? So what if she isn’t like Hui Niang, who can bear sons? My daughter is so accomplished, I ask you, can Ye Qingqing embroider such a lifelike sparrow?!"

After settling these matters, Ye Shaohua finally discussed with her mother about opening an Embroidery Workshop.

Zu Xiao dealt with everything on her behalf.

Ye Shaohua prepared a detailed list and found a group of embroiderers to teach personally.

A few days later, Tianxia Embroidery Shop finally opened.

It was during this period that a major incident occurred in Jiangling.

The Meng Family’s goods were seized by horse bandits, and their old mansion was burnt down to the ground overnight.

"Father, Mother, be at ease, these hard times won’t last much longer," at the entrance to the Ye Family, Meng Yanqiu looked disheveled, but his eyes bore an air of having everything under control, "No matter what, the Ye Family will shelter you both and ensure your safety."

In his previous life, he was destitute, and it was the people of the Ye Family who secretly helped them. Later, just before Ye Qingqing’s death, Meng Yanqiu learned that it was Ye Qingqing who had made the move.
